PRESCOTT IN GENERAL.

Prescott, a city of between 1000 and 5000 inhabitants, the county seat of Yavapai county, is the metropolis of northern Arizona and the logical and geographical center of a large and wealthy mining district. It is the gat- way to this vast domain, the supply house for many mining districts and the supporting parent for large agri- cultural district.
 Nestling among the foothills of the Sierra Prieta, with pine and oak cov- cred mountains surrounding and ev- anywhere the cool and refreshing air of the mountain cline it is indeed a most beautiful city. The valley is scarcely more than a mile in diameter and the single ridges of the mountains beyond the, foothills seem to overshadow the little valley, the pellucid atmosphere juggling with the sense of distance. The elevation is 5,432 feet. The water comes from a natural and unusually large spring in Chino valley and is as pure as the mountain waters of the Rockies.
 The opening of the s. F. P. & P. railroad gave Prescott the certainty of future growth. Within the next thirty days the Bradshaw railroad, connect ing Prescott in touch with more of the Crown King district, will be completed. Surveys have already been made for a branch line from Wickenburg to the Colorado river and the building of this road will open one of the richest agri- cultural districts in Western Arizona, and give unbounded opportunities for mining development. There is also possibility of the building of a road to the Black Rock district and from there comes the probability of an extension to Hot Springs Junction, thus bring ing Prescott in touch with more of the richest portions of the territory.

THE MINING INDUSTRY.

Prescott's chief source of income comes from the mining industry. The city is headquarters for many districts, all of which have the possibility of ex- tensive development. And the mining industry besides being to a great extent more or less permanent where big mines are opened. is the one great in- dustry which brings more and more money into circulation.
 There are fully thirty-five mining districts tributary to Prescott. The largest of them are Black Hills, Verde, Cherry Creek, Agua Fria, Mayer. Bradshaw, Walker. Big Bug, McCabe, Eureka, Lynx Creek. Senator, Has sayampa, Groom Creek, Mount Union, Turkey Creek, Copper Basin, Placein- tos, Minnehaha. Castle Creek, Hillside, Santa Maria, Thumb Butte. Martinez, Weaver, Tiger and Tip Top.

WITH THE BUSINESS HOUSES.

As has before been stated Prescott has numerous handsome business blocks and it's stores and business houses are in keeping with the build ings. Probably no store in the terri tory can equal the Bashford- -Burmister company, commonly known as the B. B. Cos s store. Drummers say it is bet ter tkan z. ckendorf's esta ablishment at Tucson, and while it is not quite as large as the Copper Queen store at Bisbee it carries a better line of goods The BIB store occupies four floors, covering floor space of 10000 square feet, with a warehouse having a floor space of 13,O00 feet, or in all over one acre of floor space. It is in every sense of the word a department store and practically everything is kept in stock. The company might not be able to deliver a battleship, but it can send out half a dozen car loads of mining machinery on short notice and add to the train half a dozen cars of groceries. And the arrangement of the store is marvel of neatness. The company owns it's building and the store is one that any city might well be proud Of. The officers of the BIB. Co. are: James A. Hope, president; H. v. <AANhCAs nISl NlCc- anu treasurer; F. NJ. Murphy, second vice. president; G. A. Bray, secretary; R. N. Fredericks, A w. Edwards, Mrs. M c. Hope, directors. The large establish ment of R. H. Burnister & Sons Co.,, also ranks with the leading mercantile establishments of the territory.
 One of the leading dry goods houses in the city is that of M. Goldwater &. Bros. They have two stores. one at Phoenix and the other in this city and both are high-class establishments. The local store, though not located in the heart of the business district, car- ries more than it's share of the first class trade. Another excellent estab- lishment is the New York store. Among the general stores are those of J. l. Gardner, D. Levy & Co.,, Moore Mercantile company, O. K. store and the Racket store. Stores that carry general lines of clothing and gents furnishings are also numerous. Among these are those of Biles & Shelby, Ed. Block, N Freidberg, J. w. Wilson and H. w. Loskey & Co.
 Prescott has two banks and one trust company and their financial statements show that they are in a healthy condition. The Bank of Ari- zona is the oldest financial institution n the city. It began business in 1877 when the territory was scarcely known but the twenty-seven years that it has been doing business have proven very. prosperous and it is undoubtedly one of the finest institutions in the terri tory.
 The banks officers are: Hugo Rich ards, president; E. w. Wells, vice. president; M. B. Hazeltine, cashier, and c. A. Peters, assistant cashier.
 The Prescott National bank, organ ized in 1893, with paid up capital of $100,00O, has grown to be one of the strongest financial institutions in the west. due to exceptionally able and conservative management. It has paid satisfactory dividends to it's stock holders from the beginning, and at the same time has pursued the policy of ac- cumulating a strong surplus for the additional protection of depositors The surplus and undivided profits now amount to $6O,O00, net. The bank is

dollars improving and the stationing of a large number of soldiers at the bar racks, army officers and their families are becoming an important part of the citys social life.
 With good hotels Prescott offers advantages to all classes-to the man upon pleasure bent, to the health seek CTS, to the capitalist seeking an ad- vantageous place for the investment of his surplus and to the laboring man seeking a means of livelihood. What more could be asked as a guarantee of the future prosperity of this beauti- ful little city.

are made part of the liquid product.
 The result is a product that does what oxygen does. Oxygen gas, as you know, IS the very source of vital ity, the most essential element of life. Liquozone is a vitalizing tonic with which no other known product can compare. Yet it is a germicide so cer- tain that we publish on every bottle an offer cf SI,ooo for a disease germ that 1t cannot kill.
 The reason-is that germs are vege- tables; and Liquozone, which-lilee oxygen-is life to an animal, is deadly to vegetal matter. It Is carried by the blood to every cell of every tissue, and no touch of impurity, no germ of disease, can exist where Liquozone goes

Kills Inside Germs

The greatest value of Liquozone lies in the fact that it kills germs in the body without killing the tissues, too. And no man knows another way to do it. Any drug that kills germs is a poison, and 1t cannot be taken in formally. Medicine is almost helpless in any germ disease, as every physi- clan knows.
 Liquozone will do for sick humanity more than all the drugs in the world combined. It does what no skill can accomplish without 1t. It cures dis eases which medicine never cured.
Arizona republican., 1904-04-24

This Company, after testing Liquo zone for two years in the most difficult germ diseases, paid $Iooooo for the American rights. That is the highest price ever paid for similar rights on any scientific discovery.
 We are now spending $5oo,ooo to give the product away-one bottle to each of a million sick ones. We are doing this so that every sick one may let Liquozone itself prove what 1t can do.

If you need Liquozone, and have never tried it, please send us this coupon. We will then mail you an or der on your local druggist for full- size bottle, and we will pay your drug gist ourselves for it. This is our free gift, made to convince you; to show you what Liquozone is, and what it can do. In justice to yourself, please accept it to-day, for it places you un- der no obligation whatever.

Acts Like Oxygen

Liquozone is the result of process which, for more than 20 years, has been the constant subject of scientific and chemical research. Its virtues are derived solely from gas, made in large part from the best oxygen producers. By a process requiring immense ap- paratus and I4 days time, these gases

Germ Diseases

These are the known germ diseases. All that medicine can do for these troubles is to help Nature overcome the germs, and such results are indi- rect and uncertain. Liquozone kills the germs, wherever they are, and the results are inevitable. By destroying the cause of the trouble, 1t invariably ends the disease, and forever.

Congressional Convention Called for
Eebrudru 27th.

As will be seen by the official call,
which appears elsewhere in this pa
per, the Congressional Committee
for this District, met at Huntington
last Friday evening and selected
Williamson as the place aud the 9th
inst. as the time for holding the.
convention to nominate a candidate
for Congress.
Hon. w. f. Hite appeared before
the committee and urged that the
convention be held at Huntington,
the home of Mr.. Hughes and himself
where the hotel accommodations
were first-class; that it would be sair
to himself and his competitor for
the nominee to be named there. Hon.
j. A. Hughes said he had no prefer
ence as to the place for holding the
convention. His supporters evident
ly wanted the convention held on
the classic banks of Tug and 80 the
the committee majority Of whom
were favorable to Mr.. Hughes
selected Williamson and an uD-hsard-
OF date, February 27th, for holding
the convention.
The people are not in favor of
mid winter or ''snap" conventions
and although the Committee may
compel them to brave the wintry
weather in order to express their
desires, as free Americans they will
more than likely conclude to "set
down" on such hasty ioceedings
by nominating one not the choice of
the ma ority of said Committee.
