KoDoL DYSPEPSIA CURE is pre- pared by the well known and reliable firm of E. c. Dewitt & O., Chicago, and from our long experience in a business sense, with this firm as advertisers, we feel safe in saying, that they would not place on the market preparation for the cure of Dyspepsia unless they had a remedy of the highest merit, and coD- scientiously believe it would cure this we'll known and almost universal complaint.

 Globe Belt: Hon. Thos. Parish and George Thornton, who went out with B. F Crawford last week in Del Shay basin, Tonto, returned to Globe on Monday and left the same day for Phoenix. Mir. Parish who is chair man of the territorial democratic central committee talks mines and politics with equal facility.

 Prescott Courier: Thomas Will Hams, an ancient prospector, is in from Hassayampa district with nearly $40 worth of placer gold, washed from gravel on Hassayampa creek. The gold is high grade, clean and pretty and Is in nuggets from the size of buckshot to the size of a pea. The gold is all of smooth sur face, showing that it has been float ing around away from the mother ledge for many years, perhaps cent uries.
 Prescott Courier: Charles P. Col lins, Joseph Seep, Jesse R. Leonard and Louis E.

 Globe Belt: Claude Battieur was in during the past week from Skin- neryille, the copper camp beyond Dripping Springs, where he ownes mines which, according to good judges, are big propositions and the ore is of good grade. A good deal of development work has been done on the property. which shows up ore to "N '~H""bN' DouOdlCul dlSO OWuc copper mines on Pinto creek, in the western part of Globe district, which surpasses anything in that section for the amount of good ore in sight, which is saying good deal as Pinta creek is noted for the size of it's lodges and variety of minerals.

@. OCIALISM, the monster which
harasses the midnight dreams
of capitalists, depends largely
for its progress upon the tyranny Of
wealth. If those who possess the
wealth, the employing class, were just
to their employees; if the masses were
not down-trodden5 by the classes, so
cialisms would have no mission, to per-
form. The commercial class in seek
ing legislation to prohibit strikes, and
thereby increase their profits fear
that such laws might unite all work
ingmen politically. Labor, at present
iss densely ignorant of its political
strength, in the United States. and
not sufficiently intelligent to politi-
tcally unite; to dispel this; ignorance
and awaken intelligence by an overt
act would be suicidal on the part OF
