through Reno yesterday and gave out
the information that a merger has been
effected between the Southern Pacific
Railroad company and the Western
Pacific people. He would not give the
source of his information. but stated
that the Southern Pacific. now that it
is in Lossession of the valuable right
of way through the Beckwith pass. in
tends to improve the opportunity and
build a line from this city through the
pass, connecting with the road again
at Chico. In the event that this will
be done the big tunnel through the ST.
era Nevada mountains. work on
which was to begin this spring. will
be abandoned. The tunnel. several
miles in length, would have required
about four years to construct, and af-
ter completion it's maintenance would
have entailed endless expense.

Clean Streets q Necessity

Deputy Sheriff Muller Is at present
making good use of prisoners In his
care. For the past day or two he has
had a chain-gang engaged in cleaning
up the city cemetery and reports
great imp ovement in appearance In
consequence. This Is the time of the
year when every city. town or vii
lage bestirs itself and puts the streets
n good condition. and Wnnemucca
should be no exception to the rule.
Back yards should be thoroughly gone
over and the rubbish that is bound to
gather in corners of yards or out
houses during the winter removed to
a place well beyond the limits OF the
town. The chain-gang could find occu-
patton beneficial to both themselves
and the public in ridd .ng the streets
of cid papers, fruit parings and what
not that are an offense to the eve and
detriment to health. There would be
little or no cost attached to the work
and from a sanitary point the results
can hardly be calculated.
If persons fully realized what can
and does result from the carelessness
of leaving this matter unattended to
they would certainly see TO 1t without
delay and have clean. healthfui yards
and streets for their children to romp
in before the warm days of summer
arrive and sickness forces the meas
ure upon US.
A couple of Bridge street merchants
this morning took the matter in their
own hands so far as their property is
concerned. and hope that the example
will prove an incentive for others to
follow.

agines foretells an accident, is very
apt to immed ately commence venting
his wrath u9on "the man in the cab

man to convey to the engineer the
opinion the passengers have of him,
when In fact the very akeman is
responsible for the bump. The engin-
eer can only judge the distance by the

giving these orders the latter is some
times careless. and all blame falls TO
the lot OF the poor engineer.

We Paid 100000

For the American rights to Liquo-
zone-the highest price ever paid for
similar rights on any scientific dis
covery. We first tested the product
for two years, through physicians
and hospitals in this country and
others. We proved it in thousands
of the most difficult cases obtainable.
We cured with it every disease which
was considered incurable.
Then we spent 100000 to give a
million bottles away to let million
sick ones try it. We thus staked a
total of 100000 right at the start on
our absolute faith in this product.
Can any one suppose that we made
such an investment without knowing
that Liquozone would do what we
claimed for it?
We publish no testimonials, no evi-
dence of cures; no letters from ply
sicians or patients, though we have
more of such letters than any other
concern in the world We simply
buy bottle of Liquozone for each
sick one we learn OF, and ask him to
see for himself What it does. Don't
you know that product must have

brings instant benefit to ALTO stand
ciich test aS that

Acts Like Oxygen

But Liquozone is more than a ger
micide. 1t is also tonic, with which
no other product can compare. 1t is
just such a tonic as an excess of oxy-
gen gas would be if 1t could be held
in the blood.
Oxygen is the vital part of air;
the very source of vitality, the most
essential element of life. 1t is oxy-
gen that turns the blue blood to red
in the lungs. 1T is oxygen that elm
mates the waste tissue and builds up
the new. Oxygen is the nerve food
the blood food, the scavenger of the
blood. 1t is so essential TO every
function of life that we could not
live three minutes without it. There
would be no weak nerves, no lack OF
vitality. no impure blood, if we
could feed TO the blood little more
oxygen.
But oxygen is a gas and unstable
The blood cannot hold an excess
Liquozone is a liquid, concentrated
and stable-not even volatile. In
the process OF manufacture it takes
from the gas its virtues, and it car
rIes those virtues to every cell OF
every tissue. 1t gives TO every
nerve center just the food that il
needs. 1t gives new power to every
function of nature. The results are
remarkable and quick.

What Medicine Does

The utmost that medicine can do is
to act as a spur to Nature. This is
true in any disease, as your physician
will tell you. Drugs never give to
the body any element it needs. An
drugs never kill inside germs.
Medicine sometimes spurs nature
TO overcome the germs; but those
results are indirect and uncertain
They depend on the patients condi-
ton. A cure by drugs is always
doubtful, and in some diseases inn
possible. Some of you have con-
tinued medicine for years without
getting more than temporary relief
Liquozone is direct and certain, be-
cause it destroys the cause of germ
trouble. Then it acts as tonic, not
as stimulant. 1t gives food to the

very undesirable class from Southern
and Eastern Europe, which has taken
the place of Teutons and Celts During
the past fiscal year nearly 100000 of
these have been landed on our shores,
constituting nearly 20 per cent of the
entire immigration of the year.
Instead of going to those sections
where there is sore need for farm labor
they congregate in the larger cities,
mostly along the Atlantic seaboard,
where they constitute a dangerous and
unwholesome element of our popula-
ton.
MENACE TO GOOD ORDER.
THE question that individually and
vitally affects the interests of our peo-
pie is: What shall we do with the
thousands that are admitted? Shall
they be allowed to form alien colonies
in our great cities, there to maintain
the false ideas and to propagate the
lawless views born thereof as the re-
suit of their experiences, foreign, not
alone geographically, but foreign as
we'll to this country in their ideas of
human liberty and individual rights
immigration left thus is a menace to
the peace, good order and stability of
American institutions, which will
grow and increase with the genera
tions and finally burst forth in anar-
chy and disorder. 1t is thus necessa-
ry, as a measure of public security
to advise and put into force same
means by which the alien arrivals
may be distributed throughout this
country and thus afford the opportu-
mites by honest industry of securing
homes for themselves and their chill
dren.
The Department of Commerce and
Labor, through the Bureau of Immi-
grafton. should. in my judgement, fur
nish information to all desirable
aliens as to the best locations for prof
liable means of earning a livelihood,
either as settlers, tradesmen or labor
ers. The States and Territories which
need immigration should file with the
department suchs evidence of the ad-
vantages offered to aliens to settle in
localities where conditions are favor
able, so that the tide of immigration
will be directed to the open and
sparsely settled country.
That the Bureau of Immigration
should be the medium of distributing
the aliens is to my mind as much of a
duty as 1T is to decide to whom the
right to enter should be given.''
