SAN CARLOS DAM
The Senate Will Insist
 on Its Building.
Rev. Mr. Whittemore Says
 1t Is a Certainty.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 2S, 1900. FRIEND REPry: Matters are taking shape favorable to securing an appro- priation, but while the mills of the gods Gas the ancients said) grind slow ly, they are sure to grind fine.
 Work with the subcommittee of the Senate is hard and would be pro- voking if we would let it spring the temper, but we have to keep cool and patient.
 THE DAM IS BOUND TO BE BUILT, no question about that, but we can't force progress. We had a conference with the committee on Wednesday,, and a clause has been formulated and pre-. sented to the body and will be em. bodied in the Indian appropriation bill and think we shall get something that will be z starter toward the cree. tion of the dam. How much it may be cut down i've do not know, but it mus, go before the House and will be hast. ened to the Senate and then discussion will oe the order of the day. There is such crowd of business and the time is so short that bills will be pushed a, rapidly as possible.
 Mir. George H. Maxwell has rendered valuable service, and being an outsider and one of the best lawyers on irriga tion OF the Pacific coast, his word i, received at gar and carries great in fuence.
 Mir. Newell's maps and charts and ex plantations and the opinions of Mir, i Maxwell and also of the secretary oi the Board of Indian commissioners Merrill E. Gates, before the sub com mittee, carried great weight.
 By the way, two men on that com mittee have been dropped and tw. others ubstituted-Senato- Stewart of Nevada in lieu of Senator Quarles and Senator Pettigrew of Soutl Dakota for Rawlius of Utah, botl good men.
 If we can't get whole loaf we mus be content with half loaf now Meanwhile the poor starving Indians must be the victims of delay until tn dam is started and work is given then to earn their daily bread. They wan to work and will be employed as sool as the dam is started.
 Sincerely yours,
 I. T. WHIrTEMoRE.

The Phoenix Carnival Committee is behind about $l ,50o. We are sorry for the committee, but it would seem that the carnival was not an unmixed
 blessing for the county or territory, as we gained much unpleasant noto- riety thereby. It will not assist us in indu cing homeseekers to come to the valley, but will have 8 contrary effect. No doubt this will be the last carni- val for some time.-[Mesa Free Press.

Steps in the Right Direction.

Some of our merchants are circu

pose of protecting at night the ne

is a gang of young hoodlums IN our

caused terror among the darkies.

and on returning home were met oy
some of these hoodlums who com.
nelled them to drop all Of their pur-
chases aud run. The other night 8
scared darkey entered the establish

chants on Main street, and when
asked by the proprietor what was the
matter stated that he had been held
up by some young boys and forced
to run. He was a plantation negro
and said that if he could not come to
Thibodaux to buy his necessaries OF
life without being set upon ano
abused he would 60 elsewhere ant
get them. A prominent planter be-
came so enraged at the manner il
which one of his employees wa

Popular Misconceptions OF
The Newspaper.

Small towns and embro cities are
liable to indulge in great miscOncep |
tons OF the scope, purposes and mis- |
s,Ons Of the newspaper. Its first duty
is to present all the news, accurately
stated. At the very outset the news
gatherer is met with personal requests
not to print this or that, to leave out
this fact or detail, to wait awhile be-
fore publishing this piece Of news and
so on until the item of public interest
must either be SO shorn of all sub.
stantial facts IA to make it meaning.
less and uninteresting. or else entirely
left out of the columns.
There is universal tendency on
the part of the average individual, to
want no news published in connection
with hlm or his affairs, until the gOs.
sips have rolled and turned it TO their
hearts content and the item is entire.
ly without interest.
This is not the case IN larger cities.
The news gatherer Sits and sqeezes
until every atom Of news is gotten,
aud then brings on his paint brush to
give it colorlng and he is accredited
with being live and active newspa
per man.
The paper must not only have the
news, bat it must have it when it is
fresh and worth reading and it must
state facts, fully and accurately.
| 1t would be amusing to hear the
number and character of requests tC
"please not publish this item or thai
fact, just yet"
There is but one class of items
concerning which no such requests
are ever made. No one finds faul
with or wants to curtail, fatterine
personal notices or complimentary

III Then we have another popular errOl

HOW TO AVOID LOCKJAW.
Causes of the Dread Tetanus and th<
Best Treatment.

Causes of the Dread Tetanus and the
Best Treatment.
The tetanus bacillus distills poison
so terrible that the venom OF a rattle
snake is nectar compared with 1t. One
grain will Kill 800 men.
These death dealing creatures love
hot, damp climate. Any grain OF SAND,
any tin can or rusty nail or scrap OF
meat or broken clam shell may have q
score Of them clinging to 1t.
These are precisely the conditions OF
our American beach resOrts-the moist
warm air, the beach too often strewn
with rubbish and In any case Uttered
with broken shells and with bits OF
wreckage from which broken nalis
protrude.
It is strange that the most deadly
work of the germ is done In late spring
and early autumn. Fifty per cent OF the
deaths from tetanus are due to wounds
on feet or hands.
After the bacillus has entered the
wound from 5 to 10 days may elapse.
The baciIli do not themselves pass into
the system. They remain in the wound
but generate a poison which does the
| work.
In most cases there are preliminary
symptoms similar to those OF an ap
proacliing cold-a dull ache located be
fore the ear, followed by stiffness IN tn
muscles of the lower jaw. There Is
growing difficulty In opening I'M
mouth, and attempts to swallow eAag
gerate the symptom. The jaws tnel
become locked, and the disease passe
downward to the rest Of the body.
In the open air the bacillus remain
inactive. 1t is only when 1t enter
more deeply and gets away from 10
air that 1t becomes dangerous. 1t ma
be rendered harmless by cleansing tn
wound with a mixture Of one part cal
boiic acid In 20 Of water. Afterwar
the wound should be filed with tint
ture Of iodine.
II the wound should be a deep ON
caused, for instance, by nall, or II
ahould be a lacerated wound, causes
for example. by gunpOwder, or a crus'
ed wound, rs with hammer, the ope
alton of cleansing may be difncu
matter, and a physician should De ca
ed in, who may inject antitoxin.

told them that. he wanted his hands
protected at night while in town. or
else he would erect store on his
plantation, thereby deprivine them
of a large trade. We quote the two
above instances to show that it is
high time that drastic measures
should be taken towards its stop.
HoOdlums can be tolerated to Ger
tain extent but when they forget
themselves and by their actions try
to injarc the trade Of a town we
think their hoollami,tic careers
should he brought to an end. We
approve the action Of the merchants
for if such things continue to exist
much longer it will prove dstrimen
