Brave Explorers

Like Stanley and Livingstone,
found it harder to overcome Ma
laria, Fever and Ague, and Ty-
phoid disease germs than savage
cannibals; but thousands have
found that Electric Bitters is a
wonderful cure for all malarial
diseases. If you have chills with
fever, aches in back of neck and
head, and tired, worn-out feeling,
a trial will convince you of their
merit. w. A. Null, of Webb, ILL.,,

for more than a year with chills
and fever; then two bottles of
Electric Bitters cured them. "

would be a bagatelle as against the general increase in value and in pros- perity.
 The Republican is certain that this plan has merit, and will continue to ad- vocate it. We would like to see the board of trade take charge of the ques- tion. and would be glad to print the opinions of business men on the sub ject. It is plain that if we want to see the Salt River valley realize its magni- ficent opportunities We must put our shoulders to the wheel The common expression, Storage will come in time" means nothing less than that it will not come in our time unless We take ac- tion looking toward the fulfillment of our hopes. If the people of Maricopa county would meet the situation in a way to encourage capital the storage problem would be solved very speedily, in our opinion. Then would come an era of good times-such as no region uf the west has ever known.

 :, TOPICS OF THE HOUR ;

One of Philadelphia's bright young surgeons recently demonstrated in a rather ridiculous manner the fact that imagination plays an important part in both ailment and cure. The president of a financial institution has for some time been laboring under the delusion that hair was growing in his throat. He visited doctor after doctor, and they all laughed at him. "The thing is pre- posterous," they said, after careful ex- animation But still the man insisted that they were wrong, and worked himself into condition bordering on nervous prostration. Finally he went to the young surgeon in question, who at once decided upon a plan of action. I'll fix you all right in a jiffy," he said. Then he went into an ante-room, shipped couple of hairs from his wrist, and fastened them to the end of an instrument. Returning to the pa tient, he inserted the instrument down the mans throat, gave little jab and pulled it out again. There were the hairs, sure enough. It was a stroke of genius, sure enough, for the man with an imaginary complaint at once re- stunned his normal condition. and the young surgeon was rewarded with fat fee.

 STEALING. of the canal systems of
 the valley. Any dimi- therefore. matter of profound inn portance to the canal companies and the water consumers of this valley. The normal flow of the Verde river at the point where it empties into the Salt has been steadily decreasing for some time, and for the past year or two the lessened flow has been so marked that every canal and every farm in the valley has suffered from a shortened supply of irrigation water There is no mystery attaching to this condition of affairs. No forest sharps nor other experts are required to ex- plain the situation. The simple fact is that the waters of the Verde river in its upper reaches, in Yavapai county. are unlawfully diverted by ranchers in such volume that it is not difficult to foresee that soon the total normal flow of the river will be diverted by the mountain farmers.
 The strange feature of the situation, as forcibly stated by Major Evans in Yesterdays Republican, is that the canal companies and the wa1er consumers or this valley should tolerate this state of affairs for a day. There can be no question as to the rightful ownership of the waters of the Verde river. They belong to the water appropriators of the Salt River valley, and the diversion CT Q single gallon through the newer ditches in the mountain valleys is without a shadow of law or right. An Injunction would lie against these wrongful users of the waters of the upper Verde beyond question.
 About the only excuse The Repuoli- can has heard so far for non-action on the part of the Salt River valley is the 'seepaGe theory'-that is to say, the theory that when the waters of a river are dfTel1 ed to the irrigation of lands which drain to the river channel the greater Eoi tion of the water so diverted Passes hack into the channel more or less farther down stream after having performed its duty, of irrigation and the ilourishing Buckeye country south west e Phoenix is cited as an instance IF point. IEe proportion of irr.sa ing water which f:t WIS back into the rsrcrt stroam eventually cannot be known with eNactness. But the experts of ins geological surrey after series of tests III Arizona reported it as their opinion that the returned water does not in any case exceed 50 per cent of the volume diverted. It is self evident that not 60 per cent of the waters of the Verde re- apear in that stream Je-wcen it's mouth and the newly irrigated area in the upper reaches. At best tho max imum return from seepage does not aTpear until after a series of years of full irrigation, and under the most fla Vorable conditions this valley will con- tinue to lose enormously from this un- lawful diversion. Major Evans warn ing should be needed without delay.

Senator John P. Jones of Nevada and others took a half mile ride in New York the other day in an automobile propelled by liquid air. The machine was guided up the boulevard under the direction of the chief engineer of a liquid air company, who wanted to show how well the motive power worked. The experiment looked like a success. The liquid air apparatus con- sisted of three tanks and collection of pipes, the whole weighing 125 pounds. The machinery worked noiselessly and the motior of the vehicle was smooth and rapid. Liquid air can be sold at present at 15 cents a gallon, which would enable an automobile to be pro pelled at a cost of two cents a mile. The engineer said that eventually the machines will be made so that they will manufacture the liquid air as it is needed en route.

The need of water storage for this valley is too apparent to require argu-
 ment. If the proposed BONDS FOR Hudson reservoir were
 WATER constructed the value of
 STORAGE. every piece of property
 in Maricopa county would be doubled and this would become the center of the most profitable and extensive system of az riculture by irrigation in the United States. Every business man and every rancher in the valley appreciates these facts The one serious obstacle in the way of the redemption of the valley lies in the disinclination of outside capital to enter upon such a gigantic task without some guaranty from the people who will enjoy the great benefits, that will accrue from it. This is perfectly natural view for capital to take. While the representations of the Hudson Res siiGir caEpany are based on sound
 l1tions the average financier is apt to exact terms which will make it in cumbent upon the community to do ail in it's power to make the undertaking success.
 For the reason that the taxpayers of Maricopa county have such vital in terest in the creation of a reservoir The Republican advocates the bonding of the county for at least half million it has entire faith in the project and is willing to attest to its faith in this sub- stantial manner.
 The plan of procedure would be sim pie and we believe it would appeal to financiers. Let the county issue per cent bonds for "a half million dollars and say to the Hudson Reservoir com pany: We will turn over these bonds to you in return for preferred stock of your corporation, the transfer being contingent upon the raising by you of two and one-half millions required for the construction of the reservoir" We venture the assertion that the Hudson people would accept such proposition as offering first class inducement to fnanciers able to supply the needed money.
 It would be strange if, with this half million dollar evidence of home faith in the possibilities of a reservoir the com \ pany should not be able to market khese bonds and enough more to insure
 success of the undertaking. Nat
 ly, capitalists who might look with
 or upon the plan would come to Ari- lona to investigate the conditions. We have no fear of the result of such in vestigation. The testimony of promi- nent engineers and of irrigation experts
 
 is all in favor of the proposed plan of storage. There is not q business man in the valley who would not expect the reservoir to prove a paying investment. The land owners would have the strongest possible interest-financldl interest-fn making it pay. Once it be- gan to pay the preferred stock would become marketable and the county could dispose of it's holding if it saw fit But we do not believe the county would wish to sell it's stock. The dividends therefrom would be certain and ever lasting. Ire annual interest charge

'I believe McKinley's plurality in New York state will be 50.000 greater this year than it was four years ago. said a prominent republican from the western part of the Empire state a day or two ago. Tt would not surprise me to see him carry the state by a plural ity over Bryan of more than 300,00o. Every condition that contributed to McKinley's great vote in New York four years ago still exists. and he has now many elements of strength he did not have in 1896. I do not believe that Bryan will gain back any considerable number of gold democratic votes, and I know that many democrats who voted for him four years ago, because they could not so suddenly bring themselves to break away from their party ties, will this year vote the republican ticket.

He held that Hobson has been "sacri- feed to the hysteria of the nation i; that he had been made to suffer chief- Iy for the sins of others" and that the people, by their conduct toward him, had shown how easy it is to make peri lous the homecoming of hero. "Henceforth," the orator added, the conqueror has less to fear from enemies on the field than from his friends at home" He, therefore, pleaded that we should forget the hour of folly and re- member the hour of courage"
