Economical Legislation Needed.

The approach of the time when the political parties in Arizona will make choice of candidates to be voted for at the November election, makes it the duty of the press of Arizona to empha- size the demand for an improvement on many former Arizona legislatures, and especially the last one. That leg islature was the most reckless and ex- traYagantin in Shoveling out money from the territorial treasury that was ever convened in Arizona, except perhaps the Thirteenth. Every trumped up claim agalnSt the territory, even those which had been turned down in the courts as void and illegal, was paid without question. The Twenty-drst legislature should haunt the political footsteps of some of the leaders in that body for the balance of their days. The people of Arizona demand that the practice of economy shall be inau. gurated in the affairs of government in this territory. It is the duty of the newspapers to espOuSe the cause of the people in this just demand. The news papers can bring about reform in this matter and they will be derelct in duty if they do not give attention to the important work. There should be no party obligation strong enough to induce silence in matters of wasteful extravaganza as makes up the princi- pal record of the Twenty first legisla, re.-Bisbee Review.

Mother Always Keeps It Handy.

"My mother suffered long time from distressing pains and general ill health due primarily to indigestion, :" says l.. W. Spaulding, Verona, Mo. 1.-Two years ago got her to try Kodol. She grew better at once, and now, at the age of seventy six, eats anything she wants, remarkipg that she fears no bad effects as she has her bottle of Ko- dol handy" Don't waste time doctor ing symptoms. Go after the cause. If your stomach is sound your health will be good. Kodol rests the stomach and strengthens the body by digesting your food. It is natures own tonic.

 Recent tests of the sugar beetS grown in the valley testify to the fact that this is as good country for the beet sugar industry as is to be found anywhere. John Johnston, the agri. cultural expert of the Eastern Sugar company, recently sent ten samples of beetS grown on the south side to Prof Forbee of the experimental station at Tucson. The result was most satiSfac- tory The beets were planted in Jan uary and February and were pulled the latter part Of June. The tonnage, saccharine matter and purity show the later experiments to be far above the first ones confirming the statements of the expert. Taking every thing into consideration, the beets grown by SpOOner aud Johnson, near Mesa, hold the record so far.-PhOeniX Ga Zette

panions. On the disastrous trip down
the snowy hill, his sled developed q

his childish strength and he ploughed
mo u fence that was partly bound
with barb wire. The youngsters cheek
caught i'll the wire, which ripped the
flesh 10" several inches. The wound re-
quircd number OF stitches to close it.
