Douglas merchants should bear in mind that when they want to spend money for advertising they will get the best deesults by spending it with the local newspaper. There are many advertising propositions being presented every day whicn receive patronage that give absolutely no re- turns to the patrons. It is not in frequent that the home newspaper man is met with the excuse for not giving him more patronage that ad- vertising expense has been running heavy for this sign card, this directory or that fire alarm fake which seldom attracts the attention of anyone. Cut out the outside advertising proposi. tiOns and keep your business before the readers of the local newspapers and you will get the best results for your money.

AMERICAN SYMPATHY FOR WOMEN.

It is creditable to the American peO- pie that however far a woman may wander from the narrow path, and however great be her weakness and frailties, when the waves of diversity begin to beat upon her she is sure of their sympathy.
 The public has justly complained that the papers have been filled with reports of the Nan Patterson trial, and that all of its coarse and salac- ious details have been dished up for the benefit of those who enjoy that species of literature. but the dis gust caused by the revelations of the trial has given place to sympathy for Q weak and unfortunate woman. who has suffered enough to atone for the deed with which she is charged, even if she is guilty.
 Apart from the tragedy involved, there was nothing unusual or remark able about the case. It was on all fours with hundreds ot other cases in which the guiltier party got out of tbe scrape safely.
 A Sport, a gambler man of the world and of the lower stratum of society, without culture or social standing or prestige, had money enough to tempt a woman of good antecedents but of little force of DF hA prosecution is that when the woman found he was going abroad with his wife, and. as she supposed, intended 10 break off his unholy liasiOn with her. she killed him.
 The neglected and outraged wife seems to have sided with the state to try to convict the woman, and the whole blame was sought to be put upon her for the lecherous alliance in which the tragedy had it's origin.
 Two juries have disagreed as to her guilt, and as public sentiment is de- servedly in her favor, there is no prospect that she will ever be conyic- ed.
 When thousands of people in city like New York stay up all night to await verdict in such a case, and in every permissible way manifest their sympathy for the defendant and their desire for her acquittal, there must De a deep-seated and widespread sen timent in the minds of these nearest the scene of the tragedy and most ia, niliar with tS2 situation that she is more sinaei against than shining, and that she has suffered enough. Such sympathy for the misguided wo- man and her venerable father does infinite credit to the people who have displayed it.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications. as they canno; reach the diseased portion of the ear There is only one way to cure deaf ness. and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eutachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rum bling scuDd or imperfect hearing. and when entirely closed. Deafness is the result. and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube re stored to normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh which is nothing but an inflamed con dition of the mucous surfaces.

The New York Tribune says: The anti-cigarette crusade in Wisconsin impaled itself on semicolon. In In diana it has been blocked by a dis junctive conjunction. Truly, law mak- ing is as yet an experimental and halting science" This reminds us of the legislature which met a few years ago in Arizona, whose members made a record of being the chanrion "crap shooters" in the west. 1'hat legislature found it necessary to eni- plOy a gentleman who was sufficient ly versed in grammer to revise and pass on all the bills introduced before they were sent to the printer.

The enterprise which is now well under way for the cultivation of the Don Louis flat and making great farm there by irrigation with the waste water from the Bonanzo Cir cle mines will be a demonstration of what can be hoped for it in the way of farming the great valleys in this county by pumping water for irriga- tion. The crops which will be raised on the flat between Bisbee and Os- borne could be duplicated on hun dredss of thousands of acres of land in the Sulphur Spring and San Simon valleys by pumping the water neces- sary to afford the required moisture The cost of pumping water can easily be arrived at. wken tho crops are har- vested on the Don Luis flat it will be easy to find out what the yield per acre will sell for in the markets of this section. It does seem that the amount cf money now being paid iH freights and express en farm pro ducts could bs used ip FssEspiag yEateT for irrigation szd big saving made to the territory.
