The democratic meeting last night was about as tame an affair as has ever occurred in Prescott. What with the firing of dynamite and the play ing of the band considerable noise was made and a large crowd was attracted to the court house the hall being filled. The speakers of the evening were Judge R. M. Ling, Henry D. Ross and P. W. O'Sullivan, but lacking in enthusiasm they failed to arouse any in their hearers.

 The Journal Miner has never de- nied that Governor Murphy and his friends have found it necessary to re- flute quite number of malicious false hoods brought against him. This is evidently what our contemporary means by explaining" It has been done effectively y and to the satisfaction of fair minded men.

Young Cooks Funeral.

W. w. Cook arrived at his home Sunday evening about midnight after a long, hard and rapid ride from his range on Squaw creek. The news of the death of his only child was enough to mman a stronger man than Mir. Cook but he endured his anguish in a brave manner. It was a sad home coming but his presence gave the only relief that could possibly be given to a heart stricken mother suffering her sorrows alone.
 The funeral of the boy will take place this afternoon at 3 o'clock and the body will be escorted to the grave by all the school companions of the deceased and attended in a body by the Masonic lodge of which the father is q member.-G Gazette.

Dry, moist, scaly letter, all forms of eczema or salt rheum, pimples and other cutaneous eruptons proceed from humors, either inherited. or acquired through defective digestion and as- similation.
 To treat these eruptions with drying medicines is dangerous.
 The thing to do is to help the sys- tenn discharge the humors, and to strengthen it against their return.

Mining Intelligence.

Articles of incorporation of the Verde King Copper company have been filed with the county recorder. The company was organized by Chas. J. George, of Los Angeles, who has other wealthy and influential men as sociated with him. The company has secured nine other claims within less than mile of Jerome, directly be- tween the United Verde mine and the Copper Chief. The claims are said to show up excellently, and there is every reason to believe that they vii. develop into paying mines in short time. The surface is scanned with i'm mense iron dykes, in appearance something similar to the croppings of the United Verde. \ surveyor has been engaged to survey the property. A contract will be let in the near fu- ture for the running of a tunnel into the mountain several hundred feet on the claims. Other development work
 will also be done. The capital stock of the company is 100000 shares, of the par valuesof S1 each. All the in terested parties are Los Angeles men and they will be a good lot of people to get interested in our mining lands, which are the best on earth today. The company may also take up other propositions. The Jerome News says that Surveyor Treadwell went out Monday morning with a gang of men and started the survey to ascertain the boundaries of the property. It will take about three days to finish this work. On Tuesday several par ties went out to look over the ground for the purpose of making a bid on running the first tunnel, which will be put in several hundred feet where a body of good looking copper and gold ore was struck while doing the assess ment work on one of the properties.
 Col. Brodie's return to the territory is quite opportme occurring as it has few days prior to election. It is significant as well. Two years ago when Col. Brodie was a candidate for delegate, Gov. Murphy canvassed large portion of the territorywith him and the colonel evidently did not iu- tend the present campaign to pass without taking a hand in it. Good reports may be expected from the Crown Point camp on election day.
 Our contemporary wants the Jour nal-lIiner to enumerate a few false hoods of the present campaign. Every assertion made against Governor Murphy's vetoes, alleging it to be from the records, but in which the record is not given comes under this category. In not a single instance has the veto itself been published in democratic paper or quoted by a democratic speaker. The veto, which is the essential part of the re cord would disprove the assertion in

 Since the Prescott fire we note a marked improvement in the appear ance of the press of that city. tvpo- graphically and otherwise. Espe- cially Is this so in regard to the Jour nal-Miner. The Courier looks better geographically, but will have to change otherwise to be strictly up to date.-Kingman Chronicle.
 As the editor of the Courier was not feeling very well yesterday, the Journal-Murphy man escapes his GUS tomary lambasting in this issue-Cou- rier. The above shows very clearly our contempOrary's idea of conduct ing campaign. If the Journal Miner dares publish anything in sup port of republican principles or of republican candidates, ''lambast the Journal-Miner man. is its motto. It never attempts to refUte what is said or to discuss principles, but lam basts the Journal Miner man." As the latter has been accustomed to this personal lambasting process now for eighteen years, he does not feel well when it Is omitted sort O feels as though he has not been doing his whole duty, hence he sincerely hopes that the editor of the O.D.DPLN.A. will be around all right again.

Farmers Were Too Fast.

When the sheriff of Dakota county, Ne
braska, was appraised of the work of the
80 South Dakota farmers in digging a
channel across Rininger's neck to make
short cut for the tortuous Missouri river
recently he Immediately dispatched posse
of deputies to stop the unlawful work.
Among the posse members were bankers
and prominent business men. They went
fully armed, as it was expected deter
mined resistance would be made, but they
arrived too late. The last farmer had al
ready crossed into South Dakota before
the posse came in sight.
When the posse arrived they found the
swift current of the river fast eating a
wide and deeper channel across the neck
through which the trench was dug. 1t is
only a question of few hours when the
channel of the big river will be unalter-
ably changed and the farms on the fertile
peninsula will be a part of the domain of
South Dakota.
