One of the worst crippled men it
has been the misfortune of Kingman
people to look at for some time was
IN town the other day. He was a
veteran of the Civil war and was
minus one leg and one arm; the end
of his nose had been shot off and a
bullet had entered his mouth, carry
ing. away all of his front teeth and a
portion of both his upper and lower
jaw and about one third of his tongue
He managed to hobble about by the
aid of a crutch and for one SO sadly
handicapped seemed to enjoy himself
very we'll. He was a member of
New York regiment and was ON his

No, Bill, the petition which was
circulated in the town and vicinity
last week, and then forwarded to
Congress will not assist a great deal
in getting the Bowersock bill made a
law. but it will satisfy good many
people who are anxious for the mem
bers of Congress to know that they
are in favor of some legislation that
will benefit the west We under
stand there is no reason to believe
the present bill will ever reach the
President for his signature during
this term of Congress or the next.
In fact, we believe the bill was intro
duced in its present form, just to get
an expression in regard to the wishes
of the people.-L;beral News

the soil from the hills will soon be

the crevices of the rocks, and when
it freezes it swells with almost ire
