Asthma and Trembling Relieved

Mrs Sarah J. Warner, who resides at Canaan, Conn. where her husband conducts the popular hotel, the War ner house, came to this city to be cured of her distressing complaints. She says: "Shortness of breath, which was due to dry asthma, was my dis .ease2for between three and four years.
 My nerves were weak, and I had
 trembling on the least exertion. Stom- ach trouble and catarrh made com plicated state of things. A dry cough, due to the disease was not only troub- lesome but distressing, for the reason that it kept me awake nights. I heard

Flood Notes.

A mar coming in from east of the
PecOS river says that there was an
acre of low bottom land on j. Y.
Dunn's ranch planted with pumpkins.
The pumpkin vines had produced .
very extraordinary crop and the
ground was literally covered with
pumpkins ranging in size from 200
pounds to 20 pounds each. The rive
rose very rapidly, and when the wa
ter reached the pumpkins they all
hoated off in a body, and on reaching
the Mcmillan bridge they struck it
with such force as to carry the bridge
away with them. The pumpkins may
now be found scattered along t. e
banks Of the river from Roswell 10

ChamberIain's Cough Remedy.

No one who is acquainted with its
good qualities can be surprised az
the great popularity of ChamberlaIn's
Cough Remedy. 1t not only cures
colds and grip effectually and perm
anently, but prevents these disea Sos
from resulting in pneumonia. 1t is
also a certain cure for Group. Whoop-
ing cough is not dangerous when
this remedy is given. 1t contains no
opium or other harmful substance
and may be given as confidently to a
baby as to an adult. 1t is also pleas
ant to take. When all of these facts
are taken into consideration it is not
surprising that people in foreign
lands, as well as at home, esteem
this remedy very highly and very few
are willing to take any other after
having once used it. For sale by ali
druggists.

oTERoIsM.

A Territorial government at best
is an anomaly in a republic, and when
it takes the form that it has in this
Territory there is little difference be-
tween it and an absolute monarchy.
The recent example of machine domi-
nation is enough t make anyone will
ing to take any form of statehood in
preference to present conditions.
True, in states there are sometimes
political machines that ruthlessly use
their power, but in the end the Gov
ernor or the man at the head of the
machine must answer to the people.
In a Territory the Governor may
adopt the favorite Vanderbilt maxim,
and rule with as stern a hand as
aver a despot welded. He is not re.
sponsible to the people, and when
the administration becomes as cor
rupt as the present Territorial admin
istration the people have to grin and
bear it until they can secure stale
hood, when they will get a chance at
their governors. Take a look at the
patronage of Otero, and then you can
see how it is possible within twenty
four hours time for him to defeat q
who vas his party's choice. A1d
the reason for the defeat was be-
cause this man advocated statehood
and was about to secure it, and wnen
comes Otero's occupation
is gone.
The President appoints the Cover
nor, who may or may not be the
choice of the people. and who may
or may not be even a resident of the
Territory. This man when appointed
then appoints q solicitor general; an

Term Will Lapse.-Same at
Portales.
Judge w. H. Pope is expected home
from Santa Fe tomorrow afternoon.
Tomorrow is the last day of grace
for beginning the session of this term
of court. Unless the Judge arrives
in time to call it tomorrow the term
here will lapse just as it did in Eddy
county. By a bungling mistake of
the Legislators the term Of court IN
Roosevelt county begins the same
day that the Chaves county term be
gins. So on his return tomorrow
afternoon Judge Pope will have to
hold the train long enough at Portales
and adjourn The court to a future day.
Clerk c.. NJ. Bird received a tele-
gram this morning saying that by the
order of the Attorney General ihere
would he no session of the Unitcl
States court this term. The reason
for this is probably hat the docket
IS very light, and that the high waters
would make it inconvenient for many
of the witnesses to get here"

"capital of Roosevelt County"

The three "Dagoes' finally made
themselves understood yesterday and
they rejoiced to find some one to talk
to them. What they wanted to lima
was the capital of Roosevelt coun-
ty," as they had some articles sci
to that address. They did not explain
that Portales was the place they
wished to find. John Brinck, the well
known Dallas salesman, was the man
who talked to them. He can talk most
any language in the world. Mr.. Brincl
said they talked a mixture of Austrian
and Italian. One of the Dagoes left
yesterday for Portales and the other
went south last night.

Republicans are whispering in De-

good fellow and Roswell ought to
give him a good VOTE" the first part
OF which is true, and the second part
of which is false. w. S. Prayer is a
most excellent man and an old and
highly respected citizen. But he is
running on the Republican ticket.
and no Democrat who has the good
of his party at heart this year will
scratch his ticket. G. F. Ellis of
Roosevelt county is the Democratic
candidate and should receive every
Democratic vote. But leaving poll
tics out of the question it is not TO
the best interests of the party or the
town to elect Mr.. Prayer. Ballard is
sure of election: Roswell is sure to
have n representative in the legis-
lature, and it pays to act the
hog" Roosevelt county deserves rep
resentation, and will secure it at the
coming election.

Old Regiment at Worth Funeral.

a dispatch from New York last night
says: Il want the 18th Regiment to bury
me, said the then Lieut.. Col. William Scott
Worth to Colonel Appleton just as he fin
ished his last review of the regiment and
shortly before he left with his command for
the Spanish-American war in 1898. Tomor-
row morning the request will be carried
out. when the regiment will attend services
over the body of General Worth at st.
Georges Church The general died as the
result of wounds received at San Juan hill.
He was the idol of the regiment and the
one the members cared most to have review
them upon ceremonious occasions. For sew
eral years General Worth was the COM
mandant at Governors Island and often
was asked to review the regiment that is
to pay him the last military honors tomor-
row. He continued to take great interest
in the regiment even after the Spanish bull
let's invalided him home, and as result of
which his death occurred on Sunday.
In the grand charge that won the day
when the Spanish troops were beaten near
Santiago General Worth took uD the COM
mand of the infantry brigade when General
Wikon fell at the head of the troops. With
in few minutes after he took up the lead
ership General Worth fell himself, and the
command swept over him. General
Worth was made a brigadier general in the
regular army but he never recovered from
the bullets that wounded him.
