ANOTHER VIEW OF IT
V.R. Norris Talks More Encourasingly
 of Fish Creek Road.

V. R. Norris of the Arizona Electric company of this city. who went to the dam site via the Fish Creek route in company with Arthur P. Davis, James R. Thorpe and others, returned yester- day, having come back over the trail very nearly the same route that he went up: He was accompanied by d. MT. Brown, who brought back Mr. Thorpe's stock.
 MT. Norris opinion of the Fish Creek road differs somewhat from that of MT. Thorpe. He agrees with everybody that it is mighty rough piece of ground. but thinks the more it is studied and looked over the less formidable it ap- pears as d site for a freight road. He thinks that MT. Thorpe got rather a magnified view of it's terrors for the reason that going up the party often left the regular trail to search out a possible better one, and sometimes they did not find it but found much worse travelling. MT. Hill, one of the engin- eers at the dam site, returned with MT. Norris as far as the lower camp of the survey. which is about four miles above Goldfield.
 Mir. Norris says that while he cannot speak for MT. Davis, he believes from his comments that MT. Davis has even better opinion of the road than he had before going over it this last time It is settled beyond any question that the telephone and transmission lines will be put through on this route, and it is

sincerely hoped freight road may be made practicable. MT. Norris believes that the difficulties that look so big will gradually fade as the work pro- gresses, and he thinks the people of the valley will find it to their interest tC encourage the building of it as liberal ly as they can, for it is undoubtedly the shortest and will be the best line once it is constructed. He says a good part of it will also be a notable scenic route. for Fish creek is the duplicate of the Grand Canyon on a smaller scale.
 So far as the telephone line is con- cerned, he says he proposes to put in a bid for the Arizona Electric company, and thinks he can construct the line without embarrassing difficulty.
 The road to Goldfield, twenty-six miles, needs no work done, and the sur vey fierce has finished about five miles beyond there, making thirty-one miles now easily crossed. From that point it Is forty-three miles to the dam site. and the line will go fifteen miles furthec' up to Livingston, which is an easy country, the road already being built. Of the forty-t!lree miles there is only a small part that the government rep resentatives are now suggesting should he built by the valley people, that being from Fish creek to the Salt river. On this side of Fish creek there is a rocky looking country for six miles, but it is limestone and easily worked. One thing about the rocky portion of the Fish Creek road is that once constructed 1t is there to stay and only trifling repairs from time to time would be necessary.
 In view of MT. Davis favorable inn pressions of the road and all that has been learned since his first general es- innate, which he announced was sub ject to modification after he crossed the trail again, it is the opinion of many that the freight road can he construct ed for much less than s100,000, the fig ure first announced.

Starving the patient who has a sick

made me so nervous / could not sleep

u. S. SENATOR FROM SOUTH CAROLINA
Recommends Pe-ru-na
For Dyspepsia and Stomach Trouble.
Catarrh OF the Stomach is Generally
Called Dyspepsia -- Something
to Produce Artificial Diges-
ton is Generally Taken.
Hence, Pepsin, PancreatIn and a Host
OF Other Digestive Remedies
Has Been Invented.
These Remedies Do Not Reach the
Seat of the Difficulty, Which
is Really Catarrh.

*. U. S. Senator M. C. Butler from
South Carolina, was Senator from
that state for two terms. In a re-
cent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co,
from Washington. D. c., says:
"I can recommend Peruna for dys~
pepsia and stomach trouble. 4 have
been using your medicine for a short
period and feel very much relieved.
III is indeed wonderful medicine be-
sides q good tonic. IN. c. Butler.
The only rational way to cure dyspepsia
is to remove the catarrh. Peruna cures
catarrh. Peruna does not produce artificial
digestion. 1t cures catarrh and leaves the
stomach to perform digestion in natural
way. This is vastly better and safer than
resorting to artificial methods.
Peruna. has cured more cases of dys-
pepsia than all other remedies combined,
simply because it cures catarrh wherever
located. If catarrh is located in the head
Peruna cures it. If catarrh has fastened
itself in the throat or bronchial tubes,
Peruna cures it. When catarrh becomes
settled in the stomach. Peruna cures it, as
well in this location as in any other.
Peruna is not simply a remedy for dys-
pepsia. Peruna is catarrh remedy
Peruna cures dyspepsia because it is gem
orally dependent upon catarrh.
