The First S. Bill.

The first So greenback issued by our
government was in 1862, and ever since
1864 it has been the heirloom of a
prominent family. It's age has in
creased its value greatly. This is also
true in regard to Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. 1t was introduced fifty years
ago. and because it positively cures
stomach, liver and bowel disorders it
is valued more highly than any other
remedy. Those who have once tried it
always keep bottle on hand to cure
dyspepsia, nausea, indigestion, dizzi-
ness, heartburn, insomnia, chills, colds
or malaria. Sickly women, too, realize
its wonderful value as q health maker
and regulator. Be sure to try it. Your
druggist will supply you with the gen
nine, also give you q copy of Our,l904
illustrated almanac, Ask for it before
the supply is exhausted.

Yuma Valley Cotton.

Worlds Fair Commissioner White
left at this office today sample of cot
ton raised on the farm of Andrew Greer
in the Yuma valley which certainly
looks all right. 1t is pronounced by
men familiar with cotton growing as
fine as that produced in the ''cotton
belt" of the south. This cotton was
grown under the direction of the gov
ernment as an experiment.. The seed
was furnished for one acre by the agri-
cultural department and Mr.. Greer was
paid for the use of the ground, for his
labor and the necessary expenses in its
cultivation, SI5, the government taking
the product. The experiment seems to
be wholly successful, and evidently
there is nothing to hinder cotton grow
ing in Yuma valley. What the esti-
mated yield for the experimental acre
is has not been reported. A sample of
the product was shipped to St. Louis
today with other Yuma county exhibits
for the Worlds Fair,

A Joint Statehood Scare.

The Yuma Board of Trade had dodg
ers circulated today announcing o spe-
cial meeting for tonight to Consider
the question of joint statehood" and
"Petition the government" not to do
it. to save US from the sad blow.
If there develops any real danger of
the passage of q bill admitting New
Mexico and Arizona as one state-and
quite few believe there is a strong
probability of it-a protest will, and
should, go to Washington from this
territory that would jar the capitol
building.
What the Board of trade did do was
to pass resolution condemning joint
statehood, asking for the admission of
Arizona as a separate state, and for
warded copies of the resolution to Del
egate Wilson and to the chairmen of
the house and senate committees on
territories, respectively.
Some people believe-or affect to be-
lieye--that there is good grounds for
the scare. but it seems improbable that
congress will force joint statehead up
on US, knowing the universal sentiment
against it in this territory. If such a
proposition should prevail, it can be
safely credited to political schemers;
the people would never willingly sub
nit OR consent to it. 1t may be said
that sentiment forms the groundwork
for such objections. This to some ex-
tent is fact; but it is right. 1t is the
spirit of patriotism, and ought to be
held sacred. What is life, robbed of
sentiment and devoted to mere expe-
diency-or the alleged almighty dollar?
Arizona asks to be admitted as a state
separately and on her merits or not at
all.

he has many friends who extend their

that he may soon recover.

MiIlionaire's Poor Stomach.

The WORKOUT stomach of the over
fed millionaire is often paraded in the
public prints as horrible example of
the evils attendant on the possession of
great wealth. But millionaires are
not the only ones who are afflicted with
bad stomachs. The proportion is far
greater among the toilers. Dyspepsia
and indigestion are rampant among
these people, and they suffer far worse
fortunes than the millionaire unless
they avail themselves of standard
medicine like Green's August Flower,
which has been favorite household
remedy for all stomach troubles for
over thirty-five years. August Flower
rouses the torpid liver, thus creating
appetite and insuring perfect digestion.
1t tones and vitalizes the entire system
and makes life worth living, no matter
what your station. Trial bottles, 25c:
regular size, 75c. At all druggists.

mysterious Music in Bad Lands.

One of the most interesting phenom-
ena is to be observed in the bad lands
of Arizona Out in the midst of an al
kali plain there is desolate formation
of rock covering only about an acre in
extent, and from these rocks, or rather
from beneath them, there issues sounds
of music as though IA organ was play
ing, end the strains are echoed from
every direction. The place has never
been excavated or fully explored, and
the theory of scientists is that there is
a peculiar formation of stalactites in a
cave there with an opening somewhere
through which the wind plays upon
these stalactites, producing the music.
The Indians claim, however, that d
cathedral was at one time built upon
this place, and that there was bad
priest placed in charge of the cathedral
who abducted Indian women and chill
dren. One night the ground opened
during a violent storm and the earth
closed in over the top of this cathedral.
The Indians believe that the music
which comes,from the ground proceeds
from the ghosts of those who were in
TERED at the time of the earthquake.

Saved From Terrible Death,

The family of Mrs. NJ. l.. Bobbitt of
Bargerton, Tenn. saw her dying and
were powerless to save her. The most
skillful physicians and every remedy
used failed, while consumption was
slowly but surely taking her life. In
this terrible hour DR.. Kings New Dis
covery for Consumption turned despair
into joy. The first bottle brought i'm
mediate relief and its continued use
completely cured her. It's the most
certain cure in the world for all throat
and lung troubles. Guaranteed bottles
soc and SLIGO. Trial bottles free at
Ketchersipes' drug store.

Mrs. Barrett is now resident of Wash

COLORADO IRRIGATION
WORKS VERY FEASIBLE
Report of Government Engineer J.
B. LIPP!NCOTT.

A Washington special TO the Los An
geles Herald says that Engineer J. B.
Bippincott, of the government reclama-
ton service, has returned to Washing
ton with complete and important re-
port on the possibilities of irrigation
works to be undertaken by the govern
ment in California. Mr.. Lippincott
seems to be more impressed with the
possibilities of the Colorado river than
with any other reason, and it is safe to
guess that a strong endorsement of the
Colorado river project will go to the
secretary of the interior.
After an allusion to the fact that
little had been done there in the line
of investigation, he says;
Delayed Investigations are now 60
estimates for project to irrigate lands
both in California and Arizona on
either side of the river above and be-
low Yuma, all this data to be submitted
to the secretary OF the interior for con-
sideration.
1.-TWO diamond ore drilling outfits are
at work on the river above Yuma pros
pecting for bedrock upon which to
found the diversion structures. A def
mite canal location is being made, both
on the California and Arizona side up
on which to base the estimates of cost.
1t is hoped that this work will be suffi-
GENTLY advanced to make definite re-
port upon during the coming summer.
The report adds that the Yuma In
dian reservation on the California side
should be thrown open to entry.
Lippincott says that while the engin-
eering problems are difficult there is
no reason why they cannot be favOrably
solved and works constructed that will
give satisfactory results.
