ing Peruna to
any one suffering with cafarrh,
as my case is complete"
Hon. b. b. Doviner, Congressman
from West Virginia, in letter from
Washington, D. c., to The Peruna Med
icine Co., says the following OF their
catarrh remedy, Peruna:
II join with my colleagues in the
House OF Representatives in recon-
mending your excellent remedy, Pc
runa, as good tonic and also an ef-
fective cure for catarrh."
Mrs. Mary C. Fentress writes from
Paradise, Tex, the following: Il
think can say that your good advice
and medicine has cured me of chronic
catarrh. l have had no pains in my
head since l have taken Peruna. 1
have been in bad health ever since
SO, and have taken a good many med
icines which were only of temporary
relief Peruna is the catarrh cure. The
Peruna stopped my catarrh of the head
SO that it did not become chronic, and
l am very thankful for DR.. Hartman's
advice and medicine"
Peruna is specific for all catarrhal
diseases. 1t acts quickly and bene-
1icially upon the inllamed mucous
membrane, thus removing the cause OF
catarrh
Catarrh is catarrh wherever located.
Catarrh is essentially the same every
where. The remedy that will cure ca
tarrh in one situation will cure 1t in
all situations.
II you 10 not derive prompt and sat
isfactory results from the use of Pc
runa, write at once to DR.. Hartman,
giving full statement of your case
and he will be pleased to give you his
valuable advice gratis.

MIR. HOLT RETURNS.

Mr.. Victor L. Holt, who was men
toned in the News some time ago as
having been appointed to take charge
of the Douglas schools, came down
from Sitka last week, and, after looking
the ground over, made a hurried trip to
Wrangel to arrange some matters of
business, returned last night on the

He holds all the papers Oregon can
give him as a teacher, and is also a
graduate of the Oregon State Normal
and of the State University.

DOUGLAS NATAToRIUM.
STOCKHOLDERS MEET TOMORROW EVENING.

STOCKHOLDERS MEET TOMORROW EVENING
We believe we may state, without fear
of contradiction, that the proposed
plans for a Natatorium and club house
on Douglas Island will be carried out.
Arrangements have already been made
for the purchase of the Armory Hall,
which has floor space of so feet by
100 feet.
A Joint stock company is being form
ed with capital stock of $4,000. Shares
500 each. Each stockholders also en-
titled to all the rights and privileges of
full annual membership. Yearly
membership cards, insuring all the
benefits of the establishment will be is
sued for $40.
1t may be asked, what are the bene-
FITS of this establishment?
First, there will be about IA or 10
shower baths, hot and cold, fresh water.
There will also be swimming pool,
3Ox5O feet, which will contain $1,000 to
10000 gallons of salt water, warmed by
steam pipes from the boiler. 1t Will
take the pumps or hours to fill this
pool, and all members will be required
to take shower bath before entering
the pool.
In addition to all this will be the
gymnasium and reading room.
The Natatorium will be open every
day, except Sunday, from 6 a. m. to 10
p. M.
Two days in the week will be reserv-
ed for women and children, probably
Tuesdays and Saturdays, from 10 a. N.
to 5 p. M, at which times there will he
lady attendants. On these days men
will be admitted again at p. m.
Yearly memberships for ladies, and
children from to II years, will be half
price. Children under 7, free, when ac-
companied by parent.
The benefits of such an establish
ment to the community are many.
Cleanliness is next to Goodness, and
the busy miner whose boarding house
or home does not boast of the luxury
of bath will be made better and
stronger by the pouring waters of the
shower bath and plunge into the in
MIGRATING sea water in the swimming
pool.
The heavy rainfall during so many
months of the year precludes anything
in the nature of an outdoor game, but
at the Moratorium will be an opportu-
nifty for the young folks of Treadwell
City and Douglas to find the recreation
that otherwise would be denied them.
Ladies and children will enjoy the
privileges and pleasures of such an in
stitution, and will, no doubt, be bene-
fitted by the use of the refreshing
baths.
1t will be step in the direction of
making Alaska more homelike, and the
cost will only be nominal.
Mr.. Chisholm, who is the father of
the scheme, is pushing it right along.
He knows what he is about, having had
experience in Seattle and other places.
A meeting of the stockholders will be
held tomorrow Thursday evening at
the Armory Hall and we hope soon to
see the actual work on the new enter
prise begin.

the indefensible position of doing noth- ing itself or allowing any one else to improve this great natural reservoir site.
 2. We firmly believe that the inter- ests of humanity dictate that the h. dians should be gathered on the reser- yations, have lands allotted to them in severalty, and that they be furnished with farming implements aud an inex- haustible supply of water for irrigation of their lands, to the end that they may become self supporting. By this means will a home life be furnished for the Indian and he will more rapidly advance in civilization as conse- quence. He will abandon his nomadic life; his children will be kept at home and educated in neighborhood schools, instead of being sent to large Indian schools at a distance where they are kept Gas it would seem) for mere purposes of show. After being in- structed in the urts of civilization for a time they are returned to savagery, to become more unhappy and discon. tented than if they had never received the questionable advantages. We feel that the present policy of the Indian department is all wrong in this regard
 8. The Pima and Maricopa Indiar reservation contains $50, GOO acres of as fertile land as lies within the bound aries of Arizona, and is admirabl, adapted for homes for these people, as well us the wandering Papagoes, wh, are now compelled to prey upon tn herds of our farmers and ranchmen fo subsistence.

HOUSE MEMORIAL NO. 4. To the Senate and House of Representa- lives of the United States in Con-
 aress Assembled.

We, your Memorialists, the Nine teenth Legislative Assembly of the Territory of Arizona, respectfully rep resent that the National Irrigation Congress, held in Phoenix, Arizona, on the l1th of December, A. D. 1896, unan- imously adopted the following:
 Whereas, The Pima and Maricopa Indians. tribes numbering in the aggregate ten thousand souls. have been deprived of the waters used by them in irrigation before the advent of the white race in America, by settlers on the headwaters of the Gila river; and
 Whereas. Through the loss of such waters the lands once cultivated by these tribes have become barren and worthless, and the members of such tribes have become a charge on the Government, and forced by the loss of their fields into lives of degrada- tion and penury; and
 Whereas, Such tribes have from the ear- Hest days been the friends and allies of the white races and
 Whereas, The people of the United States have pledged themselyes by solemn treaty to protect such tribes in their property and property rights; and
 Whereas, The Government of the United States has and now is engaged in the ex- penditure of hundreds of thousands of dol lars for the construction of works of irriga- tion for the reclamation of lands belonging to other Indian tribes; therefore, Dc 1t
 Resolved, That this Congress do approve the proposed construction. under the plans of the U. s. Geological Survey. of the Buttes reservoir. in Pinal county, Arizona, recently reported, to again reclaim the lands of these tribes, believing that by so doing can the Government alone honorably redeem the broken pledges made by it to these people, and thus preserve from further want and degradation two of the surviving Indian tribes of the American continent that have always been the constant friends of the white race.
 Resolved. That we approve the proposed construction of such reservoir not only as just and philanthropic, but as economical and good policy. as In a comparatively short time the expense of maintaining such In- dians as Government charges will far exceed the cost of the irrigation works required to make them a self-supporting and self-re- specting community.
 Now, therefore, your Memorialists, the Nineteenth Legislative Assembly of the Territory of Arizona, desire to go on record as earnestly endorsing the above recommendations of the Sixth National Irrigation Congress for the following reasons:
 l. The reservoir site referred to having been withdrawn iron entry by Government authorities, cannot now be utilized by any private corporation, and the Government therefore occupies

PRICES OF LAND.

Improved lands, with government title and water right, can be bought for from S20 to $50 per acre, according to location and i'm provements. In the immediate neighbor- hood and to the south of the Casa Grande ruins there are thousands of acres covered with heavy growth of mesquite timber yet open to settlement. These are among the choicest in the valley Water in inexhausti- ble quantity is found at depth of from twenty to thirty feet; in fact, river seems to be flowing underneath. Here is 6 sDlen- did opportunity to take up and improve land with pumping system of irrigation, which is said to be successful on small tracts.
 However, with the completion of the San Carlos reservoir. pumping will be thing of the past, and it is only mentioned here for the purpose of showing what can be done, and to magnify the further fact that what was once considered

suSsrRoKH IS UNKNOWN.

In fact, in a residence of twenty -one years in Arizona the writer has only known two persons to be overcome by the heat, and they recovered. Their condition, however. was more the result of whisky than heat. The air Is so dry here that registered temperature of no degrees is not as oppres- sive as 80 degrees in St. Louis or New York. The Signal Service bureau has recognized this fact, and reports the difference between the apparent and sensible temperatures to be fully 30 degrees. At nearly all times there is d pleasant breeze; the nights are invari- ably cool in the summer. and outdoor labor is performed without serious discomfort to either man or beast on the warmest days Very seldom does the thermometer get be- low the freezing point In winter, and in the gardens of Florence to-day are castor bear plants two years or more old.

THE CASA eRANDE VALLEY.
Information for Those Seeking Homes
 In the Garden Spot of the West.

Pinal county was organized in 1875 from portions of Pima. Maricopa and Yavapai counties and contains an area of ,s0s square miles. or s,lSs.520 acres, one-third of which could be made productive by a systematic storage of the surplus water now running to waste. Next to Maricopa 1t is the most important agricultural county in the Terri tory. It Is traversed from east to west by the Southern Pacific railroad. and branch of the great Santa Fe system is now ap- preaching from the north. The objective point of this road is connection with the Sonora road, of the same system. The Southern Pacific is also building in this direction from Tempe. and it Is confidently believed that work will not cease until the Deer Creek coal fields are reached and con nection is made with another branch of that road running from Bowie to Globe and now completed to Fort Thomas.
 Thus it will be seen that Pinal county Is the theater of railroad building at the pres ent time, md inside of year Florence, the county seat, will be

Orange and lemon trees require slight protection during the winter for a year or two, until the wood Is sufficiently hardened,
 While it is a popular thing for one to say that he is mot here for his health" it is an undisputed fact that for all pulmonary ail- ments no climate on earth is equal to South ern Arizona, and there are numbers of active. industrious citizens, with but one lung, who came here years ago. expecting to live but few weeks. But for all that, the wonderful Casa Grande valley is some thing better than a health resort.
 That portion of tho great Casa Grande valley lying along the line of the Southern Pacific railway in the vicinity of Casa Grande and Arizola is at present. and with good reason, considered one of the most desirable portions of this magnificent Southern Ari- zona, Great changes have been made in the appearance of this part of the valley during the last ten years. It was about that long ago that the Florence canal was completed and the work of actual improvement begun It is useless to deny that nnder our presen, water system there is nothing like suffi cient water to irrigate this vast body oi land.
