When tie kidneys are sick there is
always a warning to tell you of it, and
when the kidneys call for help there is
no time to lose. Kidney diseases are
common and fatal-cause more deaths
every year than any other human ills.
But in nine cases out Of ten this is due
to neglect Kidney disorders are easily
contracted, but just as easily cured
when treated properly and in time.
Common causes Of kidney troubles are
colds, fevers, exposure, strains on the
back, blood-poisoning diseases, and in
diligence in stimulants.
The kidneys are the blood filters, and
| when they become. SICK. the blood is
soon laden with impurities, which the
kidneys have failed to remove. This
cause backache, stiff, lame, and sore
muscles, aching joints, spells of dizzi-

heart and many other bodily aches and
Ills
Meanwhile the kidneys are fast break
ing down, and from this cause the urine
| becomes discolored and full of sandy
sediment; passages are too frequent and
often painful.

The Navajo Indians.

Supt. Reuben Perry, of the Ma vajo Indians, i'll an interview in the Santa Fe New Mexican says: "There are 12.OO0 Indians under my charge, and l have very little trouble with them, as they are law abiding and peaceful. They are hard workers, good sheep men, and are becoming good farmers. Many have herds of sheep, ranging from 15 to 1O,- 900 head, and a Navajo with a herd of sheep of the latter dinen sions is a rich man. Ninety per cent of the Navajo's earnings go for the necessities of life or an in- crease to his herd"
 There is a certainly a great diff ference between the New Mexico Navajo and those who reside in vicinity.

Santa Fe Has Acres.

Says the Prescott Herald, few people in Yavapai county and Arizona, for that matter, realize the immensity of the act of con- gross which on March 12, 1872. awarded the Santa Fe railroad every odd section of land within 90 miles on each side of its right of way throughout the south west.
 Asa result of this congressional act, the old Atlantic & Pacific railroad, which was afterwards absorbed by the Atchison. Topeka & Santa Fe road, receive | no less than 6,O0O,O00 acres of land in Arizona alone.
 Some of this land extended south from tht railroad to with in ten miles of Prescott, the near est point being at Point of Rocks, and running in easterly and westerly directions from that point.
 It is stated that the santa Fe company has obtained not jess than 54O,0OO acres ot land in Yavapai county, for the most of which they nave received valua ble script from the secretary of the interior.
 The railroad company instead of taking every odd section of land, takes up it's ground ill the forest reserves. Instead of giving them possession, the government pays in script, which the railroad is allowed to dispose of in what ever manner 1t sees fit.
 Most of the script is sold to settlers, who pay from $425 per acre and up for it. ( They can take this script to any part of the United States where they are surveyed and unappropriated lands, and the government will award them the land for their script.
 It is estimated that as a result of the 6,OOO,0OO acres awarded the Santa Fe in this territory, they are not less than $25,O0O,- 900 to the good. At the lowest estimate the script for each acre sells for $4.55, and at this figur- ing 1t would mean much more to the railroad than the figures given.

COLORED TROOPS
THE NEGROES TO BE ARMED
AND ORGANIZED
The Black Branch Of the Ohio
&C.,: Guards.

a member Of the Ohio state
senate has introduced bill for the
increase. of the quota of the Ohia
militia to its ma ximum of lOS com.
panies. The real purpose Of the
bill is said to provide for the crea'
tion of a regiment composed Of
negroes. Ohio now has battalion
of colored troops with companies
in Cleveland and Springfield ami
wants the opportunity of making
new companies in other states so as
to bring the strength of the batal-
lion up TO four companies. Con
siderable opposition is shown to-
ward the plan and the fact cannot
be concealed that the race question
cuts something Of a figure in this
opposition. In connection with the
proposed increase in the Ohio
militia the Coluufnpsi correspondent
for the Cincinnati Enquirer says
''The startling claim has been put
forward that there is no legal
authority for the enrolment OF
colore,l men in OHIO in the state
militia. This claim is based Hpon
section of article TX. of the Ohio
constitution, which says that all
white citizens between the ages of
Is and 45 years shall be enrolled
IN the militia" 1t is true that the
same instrument contains the same
qualiti cation with regard to voters,
but tha. part has been. suspended BY
the amendments to the federal con
stitution In all matters relating
to the exercise of the elective fran-
chise the qualification of color has
been wiped out. 1t ls held that
the matter of membership in the
militia is far different thing. no
civil rights being invaded ny refusal
to enroll the coIored men"
This measure becoming law,
the probabilities are that negro
company will be organized in the
Republican Kingdom of Ward with
Constable Tom Workman as capt
ain. This company of noble color
ed troops would come handy in
case the white miners demand liv.
ing wages.

Reducing The Dinner Pail.

One hundred and ninety th0us.
and miners in the soft coal district
have voted to accept a wage reduc-
tion. While they have no legal
cause of action against the rep"bli-

at this reduction in the size of the
dinisr pail. In the face of pres
ent business conditions they were
probably wise to accept a reduction
rather than strike, but can they be
deceived again bv the prosperity
argument? With shrinking stocks,
decreasing dividends and falling
wages the republican campaign
