Toys, Dolls and Christmas
Goods of all Kinds.

\ The fst of December we commence offering
4 the greatest stock of Holiday Goods ever shown
q in North Arkansas.
Nearly all dolls and toys have to be import
ed from foreign countries, so there is no line
which demands such early, careful and dis
crimnating buying.
In order that the patrons of this store may
always find the newest and best, as we'll as the
most for their money, we prepare months ahead
q for these occasions, and in this instance our
4 buyers were among the very first on the ground
4 and selected personally the handsome stock,
got right prices and the cream of the greatest
stock in America.
1t is not uncommon for stores to take adj
q vantage of the Holiday rush to make exhorbi-
tant profits, and ask unrea sonabe prices for
gifts. The practice is unfair and not honest.
4 We are marking plain figures on all our
d Holiday goods. We invite your attention to the
prces they are low and bear only reasonable
\ margin, just as any regular goods. Come and
see for yourself that here you obtain such
d low prices as are not found elsewhere. Prices
4 impossible except where the buying power is
Z great because of spot cash being offered for
q large quantities. We want you to pay visit
to this great exhibit Do all the looking and
investigating you please. The making public
a of our prices has done more than anything else
to make our business great.

If they fell i'll in camp and did not die
at once, they We're transported after
day or two to the hospitals at Colon or
Panama. That was about as far as
the French medical care or control eN-
tended from 1900 onward. AS result
they lost a great number of employee
some say 1000. The construction
gangs We're often crippled and ineffec-
tive. ENcayators, locomotives and other
machines stood idle for weeks, because
the men or the foremen were i'll or
dead. The losses of time and money
from this cause We're enormous. Work
was stopped from time to time and
often did not begin again for a month,
pay being drawn all the while for the
entire gang The direct loss from this
cause alone is believed to have exceed
ed 70,0OO.OOO francs. The indirect loss
from delay and decentralization can
never be determined.
Labor unions in the United States
have already debated the regulation Of
wages and working hours at Panama,
and have announced an intention to or
ganize the laborers there to this end.
But no sensible person can spend an
hour in the heat Of the Culebra cut
without coming to the conclusion that
this is not a white mans job. The
French canal company is now paying
its laborers Sl.OS a day, Columbian sill
Yer, worth but Al cents in United States
currency" Or. Stephens says that IL
is an error to speak of any locality as
i'm itself "unhealthful." If disease Is
present it has been brought there by
men or animals which have become in
fected elsewhere. No locality breeds
new disease. He wants the govern
ment to establish a school for tropical
diseases at Colon The greatest variety
of clinical material would be abundant.
Canal laborers arriving from various
poins in the tropics will afford excel
lent material for study, with the added
advantages Of observing the course Of
the diseases in a tropical climate.
DR.. Stephens also favors camp Of
detention and observation for incoming
labOrers. In no other way can disease
be prevented from gaining access 10 the
labor camps along the line of he canal.
Nor when forwarded from the camp Of
observation TO the labor camps should
be executive guardianship over the la
borer cease TO be relaxed for a moment

DR. A. G. stephens, who has been
we'll known for a generation as a writer
of stories of adventure for boys. has
recently visited Panama. where he has
had excellent opportunities for observ-
ing the great project the nation has
undertaken there. Americans speak
glibly of the possibilities of a tide
level canal at Panama. OF this Dr.
Stephens says: 1T is not an easy mat
ter to estimate the exact amount of
earth which would have to be removed
to get a clear channel across the is
thmus, 30 feet below low tide at Colon
and at La Boca on the bay of Panama.
But computing 1t ait the various levels
step by step up to Culebra, through this
vast cut and beyond. deducting what
the French appear to have done, we OBJ
tain 100000 900 cubic yards, as a very
conservative estimate of what remains

ditch from ocean to ocean, $50 feet wide
at the bottom with 80 feet of standing
water i'm it. As to the length of time
REQUIRED We have to guide us only
what the new French company has
done. Tt is agreed on all hands, how
ever. that they have worked with
fair degree of diligence and with homes
ty.
During their most successful year
1897. the new company employed $500
men and removed mainly in the Guile
bra cut. 100000 cubic meters, chiefly
earth This was bv far the best ever
done by the French Adding 40 per

readily believe that the task may oc-
cupy 5000 men. with machines, for 10
years. The temperature in the cut ne
describes as intense. The lofty bare
sides of the excavation accumulate
heat ike the walls of an oven. The
seething steam boilers add to the ca
lorific glow. 1t makes the eyeballs ache
and the lungs feel drv and hot.
1T Is no place, said DR.. stephens,
FOR white mans unprotected head.
A cork helmet, or green umbrella, or
both, are necessary to his safety. 1t
makes me shudder to think Of the hui
man sufferings implied by 10 years of
labor here on the part of 5000 men. But
only at the price of all this toll can
stately vessels steam through the Guile
bra The French canal company has
removed much earth here, but vastly
more remains to be taken out With
arc lights strung along the cutting, the
men Of the night shift would have by
far the easier days work, for then the
terrible sun rays would be absent, ana
the cooler night wind would be blow
ing through the trench. Indeed, II but
one shift of men were employed, he
thinks it would be better, after the
light plant was installed. to work them
only by night and have them sleep in
daytime.
His account Of the sanitary problem
is even more impressive. THE French
exercised little or no sanitary control
over their canal laborers., They built
little villages of wood and galvanized

days will be required, or until 1851 BY

called for to construct a tidewater canal
at less than $50 100000, or, adding the
price of the canal from the French
company, 500 100000" Dr. Stephens in
other ways makes more distinct than
do the formal reports the size of the
project to which we are already com,
mitted. The Culebra cut he describes
as the greatest thing of it's kind ever
undertaken by man. When complete it

Bisbee daily review., 1904-07-30
SPEAKING OF COWARDICE.

A good many Republican organs are endeavoring to raise an issue of COW ardice" against the Democrats be- cause, recognizing that the money question is in no sense an issue in this campaign, the St. Louis platform mak- CTS decided to omit reference to it.
 What about the cowardice of the Republicans who lodged, at Chicago, one of the livest issues that now con fronts the American people, and one in which they are manifesting great and rapidly increasing interest?
 What did the Republican platform have to say about the future disposi- tion of the Philippine islands?
 No: one word. Most of the Repub- lican leaders, held in office as they are by the interests that favor the holding of the islands for purposes of ex- ploitation, would, if they had to sub- mt to the test, declare for permanent retention as colonies; but they well know that the masses of the people of this country cling to the idea that there should be no colonies under the flag of the country which had its birth in a revolt against colonialism, and they do rot dare put the question to the test.
 It was fear. nothing else, that kept out Qf Republican national platform tion. If was "cowardice" for the Democrats to omit reference to dead issue, is 1t not infinitely more coward ly in the Republicans to avoid all men tion of an issue which is decidedly live?

WHAT WILL BISBEE DO?

Some time during the month of Aug ust Arizona is to be visited by the Wholesale Jobbers Association of Southern California. accompanied by members fthe Chamber of Commerce and Board of Trade.
 Letters received in this city state that Bisbee will be one of the princi- pal places of interest to the visitors. It is on occasions like this when Bis bee feels the need of a Chamber of Commerce, or some kind of Associa- tion, maintained by its citizens, for the purpose of preparing for the prop CT reception and entertainment of our visitors. In the absence of any or ganization of this kind, it devolves up- on the individuals to see to it that when the business men of Los Angeles come among us that they will have TO cause 10 complain of their treatment. neither must they be permitted to de part from our midst until they have been shown from whence comes the ores, the presence of which makes for the prosperity of the entire district.
 The Review sees in the approaching visit of the leading business men of Los Angeles much good to result to the territory. These men are more or less familiar with conditions here, but not until they have seen with their own eyes, will the lasting impressions be made. There IS no need Of Southern Arizona putting her cest foot forward. The every day business transactions will suffice to impress our visitors, that, notwithstanding certain state ments made by Senator Bard, of thei. own State, Arizona has by no means reached the limit of her development It is well for the business men of Bis bee to bear this approaching visit ot the Los Angeles jobbers in mind. Some program of reception must be provided and suitable token of their visit pre- sented. Bisbee should take the lead of the other towns in the county in thi; matter.

Sidney Coburn
 Was Badly Injured
SADDLE TURNED AND HE WAS DRAGGED FOR coNsIDERA- BILE DISTANCE BADLY BRUISED AND RIB
 BROKEN.

Yesterday Sidney Coburn, of Naco, rode to Bisbee on his horse. After at- tending to some business matters he left for Naco at about o'clock. A short time afterwards a telephone message came to the City MarshaPs office stating that a horse badly cut, with the saddle turned and one stir- rup gone, had been caught running lose not far from the c. & P. shaft.
 Upon describing the horse it was recognized as MT. Coburn's, and a number of his friends. with Dr. Baum, left Bisbee to ascertain what had hap pened.
 At first it was feared that MT. Co- burn had been a victim of foul play, as it was known that when he Jeff Bisbee he had large sum of money on his person in gold coin.
 When the Bisbee people reached the c. 6 P. shaft they found MT. Coburn, and Dr. Baum made an examination The fifth rib was broken, and the rid CT had sustained several bad bruises but no injury that will prove fatal From the account given by man who saw the accident, it appears that MT Coburn was seen riding along the Naco Road at an easy pace, wher without warning the saddle turned and the horse becoming frightened started on a dead run, dragging MT Coburn, who had one foot caught il the stirrup. The horse became frantic and pitched about, landing with ont foot on Mir. Coburn's chest, breaking the rib. The stirrup broke, and tht maddened horse took across the coun try, and was caught further on.
 A hack was brought from Bisbes and the injured man was taken to hi home in Naco- The pony, which i a valuable one, is badly cut about tn, legs, and is probably ruined.
