 Graham Guardian: Geo. Hanks, Of Thatcher, has returned home from St. David where he purchased ma chinery for driving wells depth of 1000 feet. He will at once drive a number of wells on his own place and after that will give attention to ap- nlications from some of the prominent citizens of the town and vicinity.
 Journal Miner: Joseph Engle and son who are digging we'll in East PresC ott for J. J.

The contracts were divided among many civil engineers, of whom three reside in Phoenix.

 Mohave Miner: Joe Perkins, aged about 30 years, resident of Riovlle, Nevada, arrived in KiDgman last Wednesday. There is nothing strange in Mir.

The thing looked natural to him and he expressed nc Surprise to the wonderful improve. ment locomotive is over cart horse. The strange sights of railroad life will undoubtedly be revelation to him, but he in no manner showed the ina pression made. MT.

How T To Gain Flesh

Persons have been known to gain a pound a day by taking an ounce of SCOTT'S EMUL- SION. It is strange. but it often happens.
 Somehow the ounce produces the pound; it seems to start the digestive machinery going prop erIy. so that the patient is able so digest and absorb his ordinary food, which he could not do be- fore, and that is the way the gain is made.
 A certain amount of flesh is necessary for health; if you have not got it you can get it by taking

They start Next Week.

The legislative commission appoint
ed recently by Governor Mount to visit
the various state penal and benevolent
institutions, with view to reporting
on their needs to the new legislature
this winter, will begin its work next
week The commission was formally
organized at Indianapolis Tuesday,
with Senator Goodwine as president.
The two other members are Represent
atives James, Putnam county, and Art
man, of Boone county.
The meeting was an important one,
from the fact that Governor Mount, as
the retiring governor, instructed the
commission thoroughly as to the
method of its Investigations and as to
q few particularly urgent needs of the
state institutions. One Of the prin-
cipsl recommendations of the governor
was on the provision for the care of
the criminal insane of the state.

AMENDMENTS NOT CARRIED.
Governor Mount Announces HIS Decision
in Matter.


in Matter.
Governor Mount announced Mon
day that he had decided that the two
constitutional amendments before the
people at the recent election have not
carried within the meaning of the law.
The governor holds that as the highest
vote received by either amendment is
only 3l4 900, which is less than half of
the total vote cast at the election, the
amendments have failed.
liz speaking of the matter the gov
ernor said: "The constitution plainly
says that an amendment must receive d
majority of the votes of all the electors.
The secretary of state has gwen me a
certified statement of the votes cast for
and against the amendments. Accord
ing to that statement and what the con-
stitution says cannot declare the
amendments carried"
When asked what action would likely
be taken in the matter a ttorney Gen
ersl Taylor declined to talk, saying he
had not consulted with the governor
and therefore was not in position TO
make a statement. He said, however,
that it was likely an entire reorganizs
ton of the supreme court would be
necessary

The muItitudes who use this standard article
know that 1t is many hundred per cent. better

made. but a great many do not know why. The
simple reason is that Mr. Major uses the best
materials ever discovered and other manufac-
turerS do not use them, becGuse they are too ex-
pensive and do not allow large profits Mr.
Major tells Us that one of the elements of his
cement costs SS75 a pound. and another costs
S2.65 gallon. while large share of he SO called
cements and liquid glue upon the market are
nothing more than Sixteen-cent glue. dissolved
In water or citric acid. and. in some cases fill
tered slightly in color and odor by the addition
of cheap and useless materials
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents and
twenty-five cents bottle. and when dealer
tries To sell substitute you can depend upon Ii
that his only object is 10 make larger profit.
The profit on Majors cement Is as much as
any dealer ought to make on any cement And
this is doubly true in view of the fact that each
dealer gets his share of the benefits of Mr..
Majors advertising, which amounts 10 over
5000 a mouth. throughout the country. ES-

Bad Opinion of SUGAR Beets.

"SOme of the farmers of this neigh
borhood WHO are receiving returns
from their crops OF sugar beets are con-
siderably disappointed at not getting
as much as they had expected" says
the North Judson News, "snd most of
them are agreed that the plan of rails
ing beets for shipment is quite q
bOthersome and Improbable exper
fence. They can see, however, how
raising beets for home factory would
change matters, aud are able to
measure the benefits which would
arise from such an undertaking. First,
they know that beets testing from l6

here the past season, are worth more
than S4 per ton. Second local fac

home each time with q ton of beet
pulp for stock feed, for which factory
makes little or no charge They could
then personally supervise the weighing
and taring of their beets, suffer no
loss from shrink..e ead occasion no
delay in unloading. This season there
has been great trouble in procuring
cars and frequently farmers have been
set back two or three days and caused
to suffer much disadvantage and in
convenience. 1t is easy TO figure the
enhanced conditions home factory
would afford: Good roads, proper
price for high testing beets, free feed
for stock and perfect facilities for
marketing the crop quickly and with
little expense. All this, coupled with
the knowledge gained by the experience
of the past season, will make sugar
beet culture in Northern Indiana a
source of great pleasure and profit"
From another source comes the state
ment that the crop did not pay expenses
in other localities.

"a State Laboratory.

for the establishment of state lsbors-
tory, with corps of expert chemists.
The object of this measure is to add to
the efficient service rendered the state
by the state board of health, in its
lsbors for the prevention of disease and
the promotion of the public health.
The chief work of such a laboratory
would be the examination of various
