NEWSPAPER MEN LAND
 IN CANANEA JAIL
Mexican Publishers From San Anto- nio Say Unpleasant Things About Presidente and Are Thrown in Jail for Their Trouble.

The path of the newspaper man across the border is beset with thorns and pitfalls, according to the story of two Mexican newspaper men who ar rived in Douglas yesterday. Espe- cially is this so when articles appear criticising the Presidente.
 Antonio P. Araujo and Enrique Der mudez are the owners of a Spanish paper printed at San Antonio. Texas. While visiting in Cananea for the past several weeks these two newspaper men allege that they discovered that gambling was being conducted in the big copper camp contrary to law and they sent out articles to their paper criticising and denOuncing the .Mexi can officials, and particularly the Presidente of the camp, for this breach of trust and other official ac tions.
 A number of the papers were sent to Cananea and were sold at a big price. The presidente ordered the arrest of the writers, and they were up in jail for daring to criticise his official acts. Later they were lib erated, and are now on their way home, and when they get back they say they will publish an account oi official corruption which they claimed to have found in the official circles oi Cananea.

BENSON IS AGITATED
 OVER ITS DEPOT
Persistent Rumor That s. p. compa- ny Will Remove Depot Building to Western Part of Town.

There are all kinds of rumors afloat
 in Benson concerning the removal of
 the Southern Pacific depot to the
 stock yards, in the western part of town, says the Press. It is said that officials of the company have con demned the old depot, and that plans for a more substantial building have already been drafted, and that it will not be long before work is commenc- ed on the new structure. The Pacific Improvement company putting their lots back on the market at about dou- ble the price for some of them leads color to the rumor that something is going to happen in Benson, but just what is the question bothering our property owners and business men. during the past week strangers, who evidently have received a tip from some quarter, have made fancy offers for realty in the west end, but there were no sales. The s. P. company will open Huachuca street across their tracks, which adds to the story of the removal of the depot site. It is claimed that the new depot will be used by all the roads entering Benson

For GROWING Girls.

West Pembroke, Me-, March 2l-Mrs.
A. L: Smith, of this place, says that
Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best remedy
for growing girls. Mrs. Smith empha-
sizes her recommendation by the follow
ing experience:
My daughter was thirteen years old
last November, and it is now two years
since she was first taken with Crazy
Spells that would last week and would
then pass off. In month she would
have the spells again. At these times
she would eat very little, and was very
yellow, even the whites of her eyes would
be yellow.
''The doctors gave us no encourage
ment, they all said they could not nelp
her. After taking one box of Doddf 8
Kidney Pills, she has not had one bad
spell. Of course, we continued the treat
ment until she had used in all about a
dozen boxes, and we still give them to
her occasionally. when she is not feeling
well. Dodds Kidney Pills are certainly
the best medicine for growing girls"
Mothers should Iced the advice of
Mrs. Smith, for by SO doing they may
save their daughters much pain and sick
ness and ensure a healthy, happy future
for them.

ANOTHER RECORD IN
LAND-HUNTING.
This Springs Exodus to Canada
Greater Than Ever.

1t was thought in 1903, when over
fortyfive thousand people went from
the United States to Canada, that the
limit of the yearly emigration to the
wheat zone of the Continent had been
reached. But when in 1904 about as
large a number of American citizens
signified their intention of becoming
settlers on Canadian lands, the gen.
eral public were prepared for the an
nouncement Of large numbers in 1905.
No surprise therefore will be caused
whCu it Is made known that the pre-
dictions Of fully fifty thousand more in
1905 are warranted in the fact that
the Spring movement Canadaward is
greater than 1t has ever been. The
special trains from Omaha, Chicago,
st. Paul, Detroit, and other gateways,
have been crowded. Many have gone
to join friends and relatives who have
prepared homes for them, and others
have gone relying upon their own re-
sources, satisfied that what others
have done can also be done by them.
This year much new territory has
been opened up by the railroads, which
are extending their main lines and
throwing out branches in their march
across the best grain and grazing
lands on the Continent. This new
territory has attractions for those de-
string to homestead on the one hun
dred and sixty acres granted each set
tier by the Canadian Government.
Many also take advantage Of the op-
portunity to purchase lands at the low
figures at which they are now being
offered.
1t does not require much thought
to convince one that If Iowa, Illinois,
Minnesota and other lands, with q
value of from fifty to one hundred and
fifty dollars an acre will give a good
living by producing ten to thirteen
bushels Of wheat to the acre and
thirty to fifty bushels Of corn to the
acre, the lands of Western Canada at
seven to ten dollars an acre, produc-
ing from twenty to thirty bushels of
O superior wheat to the acre, should
produce a competence to the ordinary
farmer In a very few years. These
arc the facts as they confront the
reader. There arc millions Of acres of
such land in Western Canada in addi-
ton to the other millions that are con-
sidered to be portion of the biggest
and best ranges that ever invited the
cattle and horse producer of the North
American continent. What is particu-
larly evident in Western Canada Is
the fact that the wheat lands, adjoin-
ing the grazing lands. make farming
particularly agreeable and profitable
The agents of the Canadian Govern
ment, who are always willing to give
Information and advice to intending
settlers, say that the acreage put un-
