AN APPRECIATlVE PAPER.
The Prospect Comments on the Good
Work of the News.Herald.

In the last issue of the Wicken-
burg News-Herald appeared liber-
al mention of the Prospects spe-
cial mining edition, reference be-
ing made to it in several well
written articles in that issue, COM
menting on the immeasurable
value to Yavapai county through
publication of the edition, and
urging the mining and business
men of Wickenburg and vicinity
to support the enterprise and to
give that district the representa-
ton it deserves. Through the
earnest appeal Of the News-Herald
the Prospects special representa-
tives met with an unqualified sue
cess in obtaining business in that
section, and the district contiguous
to Wickenburg, as we'll as the town
itself, will be completely written
up, as it should be, for it is a Sec
ton Of country that is fast coming
to the front as a great producer of
precious metals.
The enterprising and thoroughly
up-to-date News-Herald, ably edit
ed by Dick Hall, has shown it's ap-
probation Of the Prospects grand
effort to attract the attention of the
world to the mineral resources of
Arizona, and recognizes the value
of judicious advertising, and the
Prospect in turn highly appreciates
the action of the NeWs-Herald in
so strongly urging the people of
that section to contribute towards
the production of what is going to
be the most elaborate and complete
exponent of northern Arizona's
mining industries ever issued; an
edition which will show to the
world the magnitude of Yavapai
county's possibilities, and the great
opportunity for the legitimate in
vestment of capital in the mining
business.-Prescott Prospect.

Secretary Stoddard.

On Monday President Roosevelt
re-appointed Isaac t. Stoddard
secretary of Arizona and sent his
name to the senate for confirma-

tofore been holding Office under a

President Mckinley caused many
aspiring and ofice-seeking Ari-
zonans to predict a change in the
office, but Secretary Stoddard still

silver and copper, in one instance
being within a few yards of the
placeritas worked by Mexicans the
past few years. A large ledge of
iron-stained quartz running near
the base of the hill, and including
the ground where several large
nuggets were found, will be thoro-
ughly prospected by DR.. Brown
and Mr.. Roberts, in the hopes Of
finding the gold ledge. No as
says have been made of this quartz
but it has every appearance of car
rying good values in gold. A
large body of fire clay has been To-
Gated by these gentlemen, and sam
pies will be sent away for testing.
We neither know nor have ever
heard of any section in Arizona
with such remarkable surface
shoWings as those found in and
around the Sahuaro, and predict
some large deposits Of silver, gold
and copper being uncovered at no
great depth by those having the
energy and means necessary to do
the work.

STRONG FINANCIAL INSTITUTION.
A Healthy Increase in Business for the
Prescott National Bank.
Prescott, Ariz., Dec. 16, 1901.
LeMs-Herald Wickanhrrn


News-Herald, Wickenburg.
GENTLEMEN: - Enclosed please
find our check for $500 for a years
subscription to your paper. We
desire to say that we are in full
sympathy with your efforts to de-
velop your district. It is our
policy to aid in every consistent
way any enterprise looking toward
the legitimate development of the
resources Of this territory, and the
districts tributary to Prescott in
particular. Please quote us adver-
tising rates by return mail. Very
respectfully, r. N, FREDERIcKs,
Cashier Prescott National Bank.
The Prescott National Bank is
one of the strongest financial insti-
tutions in the territory and rapidly
gaining prestige, as comparison
of it's published statements will
show. On September 80, 1901,
the resources amounted to $780,
449O1, and on December 10, to
1851 ,83927, a gain of over $4,000
in little over two months. This
remarkable increase is due, in a
large measure, to their policy as
expressed above, of aiding and en-
couraging the development OF the
vast mineral resources Of this sec
ton OF Arizona. On December
10, their deposits subject to check
amounted to over a half million
dollars, which is good indication
of the activity in the Prescott Sec
ton.

A new catarrh cure has recently APP

and liver.
The remedy is In tablet form. pleas

tablet being scientific combination of
Euatacol. Eucalyptol, sangrinaria. Hy-
drastin and similar valuable and harm

The safe and effective catarrh cure
may be found at any drug store under
the name Of stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
Whether he catarrh Is located In the
nose, throat, bronchial tubes or stom-

success, removing the stuffy feeling in
head and nose, clearing the mucous
membrane of throat and trachea from
catarrhal secretions. which cause the
tickling. coughing, hawking and gag
Eing SO annoying to every catarrt suf-
ferer.
Nasal catarrh generally leads to ul-
ceration in some cases to such an extent
as to destroy the nose entirely and in
many old cases of catarrh the bones of
the head become disc ased. Nasai ca-
tarrh gradually extends 20 the throat

treatment and Stuart's Catarrh Ia blets
is the safest of all internal remedies, as
we'll as the most convenient and salts

Dr. Eaton recently stated that he had
