There is more Catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put to-
gether, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable For great
many years doctors pronounced it a local
disease and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure vito local
treatment pronounced it ineurable. Now
science has proven catarrh to be a consti
tntional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Gatarrh

Star Route Box Delivery.

The miners and cattlemen liv-
ing along the mail routes of this
county will be pleased to learn that
under the new contracts they can
have delivery of their mail at any
point on the route by putting in a
box for the receiving of such mail
and by notifying the postmaster of
the office to which his mail is ad.
dressed. The box shall be so
placed that the mail can be re-
moved therefrcm by the carrier
without dismounting from his horse
or vehicle. There are many plac 8
along the mail routes of this county
where such convenience will be
highly appreciated. Along the Big
Sandy there are many farm houses
that can have this rural mail de-
livery by putting in the boxes nee
essary and looking after them. The
carrier is compelled to make the
delivery by reason of his contract.
If the farmer or miner desires they
can purchase a lock box suitable
for all purposes for about two dol
lars each. The mail carrier is also
required to carry all mail matter
delivered to him on the route and
deliver same to the first postoffice
where CANCELLATIONS shall be made
and the mail forwarded to its des-
tination, but he is not compelled to
take such mail from the boxes, un-
less it be that such box is unlocked

A Friend Thou Hast :

The little grey faker and editor
of the rat" sheet, has ever given
it out that he has been true to all
the principles of friendship. That
the statement is made for it's worth
in words is evidenced ny the action
of that man in the last campaign.
For months he was a Wilson man
and denounced Mark Smith with
all the foul denunciation at his
command. The convention was
held at Phenix and still his paper
came out in support of Col Wilson
The friends of Mark Smith in King
man got up little informal ban
quet for the date Of his arrival here
during the campaign and Kean St.

gether early in Octooer in extra
ordinary session for the considera-
ton of the Cuban and other i'm
portant business. The session Just
passed was one of the most i'm
portant in the history of the nation
and the handling of important
questions will have great bearing
ON the future history of the repub-
lie. The Philippine bill and thu
passage of the canal bill were of
the greatest Importance to the p o.
Pile of the Pacific coast and many
will be pleased over the settlement
Of the vexed question. A great
waterway between the Atlantic and
Pacific oceans has been a necessity
OF the past twenty years, and only
the opposition OF the great CONT
mental railway lines has blocked
its building. That the president
will push the canal to completion
is assured. He is broad man and
the building of this great ditch will
cause his name to 60 down in his
tory as one of the great men Of the
age.

internal growth shall have been so
great that We can compel consid-

The screed Of the Tucson Star
against Mark Smith is to be de-
plored If Smith was candidate
for office there nigh be something
in an effort to belittle his good
work in congress, but when that
gentleman has avowed his intention
of keeping out Of the race and rele.
eating himself to private lite, we
are unable to see any reason for the
vile attack. When Mark Smith
was taken i'll on the fl,or of the
house, after his masterly speech on
the statehood bill, there was not a
paper, either democratic or repub-
lican, with the exception of the
Star, that did not eulogize him and
the good work he had done in be.
half of the territory. There is no
denying the fact that Mark Smith
did more for the territory during
