with the completion of the Kansas
City & Orient railroad, many new
prospects will be opened.
The new railroad runs directly
through this rich section and already
reaches a portion of 1t from Chihua-
hua, taking the ore out through that
city and thence over the Mexican Cen
trail to Ell Paso from where 1t Is
shipped to Missouri.
A number of Missouri capitalists are
interesting themselves in this field, re-
membering the profits made In their
own state when zinc was first discoV-
cred, and any number of experts ana
smelter men have recently been down
here looking around, from that section.
Other minerals are also found In the
zinc producing section, but zinc is the
predominant ore and Is getting the
greater part Of the attention. AS yet
the field is not extensively known and
it is said that the hackers of the new
railroad are making no efforts to ad-
the Stillwell interests have taken UP
a number of claims in that vicinity,
and are willing to take more If the
section proves as rich as it Is expected
to, but the owners of land in that sec
ton, particularly the state government,
which owns many acres of the public
domain, are arranging to exploit the
resources Of the section and prepara-
tons are now in active progress to
have good display of ores in Ell Paso
when the American mining congress
meets here on November IA for a
weeks session.
General Mining Personals
George Mitchell of Los Angeles, for
merly of Cananea, must have one Of
the richest copper mines in the world
in his property at La Dicha, Guerrero,
Mexico. Since his company, the
Mitchell Mining company, started
up it's smelter a short time ago it
is turning out twenty-eight tons Of Go
per cent copper matte daily. This will
give about 100000 pounds of copper
per month from only 200-ton smelter.
The matte Is hauled to Acapulco for
shipment. The plant is to be increased
in size.
Nestor A. Young, mining expert, is
in Prescott from his headquarters in
Los Angeles, going there for the pur-
pose of examining mining property for
eastern capitalists. Mr. Young was
once a member of the California legis-
lature, and still takes an active inter-
est in politics.
Yuma County
Sam Butler has sold his group of
gold mines in the northern part of
Yuma county, Ariz., to Los Angeles
people for a large sum.
M. B. Ashbrook, who has returned
from a visit to the Copper King mine,
says that forty-two men are at work
and about 100 tons of ore are being
taken out daily. A rich ledge is being
worked at the 600-foot level. AS the
ore has to be shipped to Tacoma for
ing operated at profit speaks we'll
for the richness of the ore. The work
is done under a receiver appointed by
the federal court, but hope is expressed
that before long the troubles will be
adjusted and that the property will
come out with flying colors.
The smelter at Needles CAL, and all
the holdings of the Fletcher Mining
company in Mohave county have been
purchased by a company represented
by L. D. Godshall. The requirement
OF these mining properties will give the
company ores that carry a large
amount of lead. which are greatly

THE TURN OF LIFE
Time When Women Are Susceptible to Many
Dread Diseases-Intelligent Women Prepare
for 1t. Two Relate their Experience.

The "change of life" is
the most critical period
of a woman's existence,
and the anxiety felt by
women as it draws near
Is not without reason.
Every woman who
neglects the care of her
health at this time in
vites disease and pain.
When her system is in
a deranged condition,
or she is predisposed to
apoplexy, or congestion
of any organ, the ten
dency is at this period
likely to become active
and with a host of ner-
vous irritations, make
life a burden. At this
time, also, cancers and
tumors are more liable
to form and begin their
destructive work.
Such warning symp-
toms as sense of suffo-
cation, hot flashes, head
aches backaches, dread
of impending evil, timid-
ity, sounds in the ears,
palpitation of the heart,
sparks before the eyes,
irregularities, constipa-
ton, variable appetite,
weakness and inquie-
tude, and dizziness, are
promptly needed by in
telligent women who are
approaching the period

One of the inmates of Il London

One of the inmates Of Il London
asylum is wealthy English manu-
facturer hopelessly Insane. The
story goes that this man invented
an expanding steel bullet, from
which in connection with The firearms
Ills factory turned out he made a
fortune. Shortly before the Boer
war his firm shipped quantity OF
arms to the Transvaal. When hos
tilities commenced his only son en-
listed in the English army and Was
ordered to South Africa. Months
afterward the father received a letter
stating that his son was dead, had
died from d wound which ordinarily
wluld not have been fatal, but for

there are many against the uispeni
sary who were, and are today, SEN
ator Tillman'S staunehest followers.
The two issues are totally disasso-
ciated, and he vino says otherwise
must either be vastly ignorant or
very preiudiced, OF the two combined.
No. Z: Don't you know that the
towns of Kingstree, Lake City and
Scranton get about $1,000 dispen-
sary profits, net cent of which is
shared by people outside of said
towns, and that the towns also get
their pro rata share of the profits
that 90 to the county, Our con-
temporary answers no to this ques-
ton, lheE goes on and explains that
it means veg. 1t says: Eve have
said seNeGai times that the towns get
1000" Yes, that's all right; now
add "not Cent of which is shared
by the people outside the towns"
for snch is true and the Mail knows
it. "And," adds the Mail, ''we
have also said that the county gets
S12, ,0O0." Well, 90 on and tell us
that $4,000 of that amount is ap
porlioned among the schools, town
and county alike, according to en-
rollment, and the balance, about
$1,000. goes into the treasury and Is
applied to county purposes, SC that
town and country both leap the
benefit just the same, because 1t
lowers the taxes just that amount.
That's 4he way the thing is worked
and opf friend can't deny it with all
his attempted financial juggling.
Now, our amiable contemporary
accuses us of trying to '.ntagonize
town and country. Just a word as
to this charge. In our issue of Oc-
tober 5, in reply to the Mails edi-
torial on "The Money Side," We
said: 1.-The question of relative pro-
fits of town AMI county has really
no bealing upon this discussion save
to excite the prejudice Of the coun-
try people and we deprecate the
Mails reference to the matter, but
since it has been lugged in we want
the facts clearly stated" Now, who
is responsible for the "autagoniz-
ing" if any there be? The editor
of The Record was born and rea:ed
among country people and he feels
very near to them. He has lived in
Kingstree for nearly ten years and
never yet has he taken position
that he did not conscientiously he.
lieve to lie conducive to the best in
terests of tie town. And We be.
lieve now that our stand is entirely
in keeping with the spirit that has
prompte4 us heretofore. We have
noted with pride and qualification
the p | n d d advance nent that
Kingstree and, in fact, our who!"
county has made within recent years;
and for years before the editor Of
the Mail ever honored us with his
citizenship our humble efforts were
contributed toward this very end.
Antagonize indeed! We love the
whole county regardless of section,
and rejoice at the splendid progress
that has been made in ma.
terlal way, but We do not want our
prosperity to be based on the proceeds
of the liquor traffic and we do not
believe that it is. We might say
good deal more in reply to our
friend, but pshaw! it's waste of
ammunition to shoot grasshoppers
with gatling guns.

Those Seven Questions.

Did you ever see bug impaled
on the point of a pin? How il
writhes and squirms in vain to gel
away! It's cruel sport that boys
practice, but when the bug is mis-
chieyous insect it doesn't get much
sympathy.
Such bug is the dispensary cor,
gin" and those who beheld It's deS'
perate but Intellectual struggles last
week to shuttle off our pointed ques,
tions viii readily perceive the apt.
ness of our illustration. We asked
for unequivocal replies to our ques-
tloling and the Mail at the outset
promised to answer them ''fairly
and squarely." We are willing to
believe that our friend did his little
best, but his vehicle of thought car
rled him a very eccentric orbit so as
TO lead him into a labyrinthlne maze
of confusion from which escape
is clearly impossible. In previous
article We called him an artful dodg-
er, but now We are compelled to
modify our opinion. His most re-
cent. exhibition is so crude and in
artistic as to convince US that, after
all, he is a very awkward exemplar
Of an ant of which if practice. and
perseverance count for aught he
should be a past master. His fran
tic and futile attempts to an
swer our questions disclose a state
of complete mental befuddlement
that is really pitiful to contemplate.
Now watch his agonizing contor-
tions.
Question No. l: "Do you be-
lieye that a true prohibitionist
could vote for the sale of liquor in
any form?'' He answers yes, and
adds that under certain conditions a
true prohibitionist should vote for
the sale of liquor. Well, for one
who catalogues prohibitionists along
with ar-keepers, bhnd-tigers and
hypoctites that answer is not sur
prising, but to our mind when a
prohibltionist deliberately casts his
vote for the sale of liquor as a beyer-
age he ceases to be a prohibitionist.
It would be just as reasonable for
one who opposes stealing in any
form to favor the issuing of licenses
to steal "under certain conditions. :"
: Our friend asserts that a large ma
iority of people drink liquor and
that the demand must be supplied.
He might Just as well argue that
because the majority of people are
sinners we should close up the
churches and turn over the universe
to ,Beelzebub, provided of course
there is money enough in the deal
to keep taxes ,down. "The wages
of sin is DEATH" but then we've got
to die anyway, so give US the wages.
Question No. 2: "Are you now,
or have You ever been a prohibition
ist?" The answer to this question is
SO remarkable that we will quote il
verbatim:
ssWe have never taken a drop a:
q beverage or for medicine, we have
never spent a cent for it; we have
never given money to another to buy
it; we have never offered it to {
friend; and We have always advised
friends Where we had influence mo-
to dt4Fksit. We will leave it to the
editorof The Record to pass sen
tence. Buewe would like for hin
to tell us if he is now or has evel
been prohibitionist?"

have no such scruples who would
take the job How about mall
protesting "religious scruples,' who
| favors a law that creates jobs to fill
I~hich it takes Il man devoid of re-
ligious scruples:: We leave this nut
| for our friend to crack at his iels-
ure.
No. 5: "Between the dispen-
sary law, as it stands, and prohibi-
ton (the two questions to be voted
on in the pending election) which
DO you think preferable? He answers,
the dispensary. Then he admins
tels this gratultous stab: "Between
Ethe present law and 'blind-tlger'
prohibition We prefer the dispen-
sary and expect TO vote for the dis
pensary on November 21.' NV
isn't he severe on his former friends,
the 'poor misguided prohibition
ists?"
Question 6: "Do you believe that
the present auti-dispensary agitation
is in any sense a political move aimed
at Senator Tillman? If yes, why do
ysu think so?' Now read his an
swer: "We 40 not think the move
ment started with this avowed pur-
pose. but since launched, We believe
that some of Tillman's enemies are
aiding it. Senator McLaurin's prom
inence in the movement Is why we
think so. We believe theslovement
is more directly the the agitation of
misguided prohibitionists, disgrunt-
led politicians and blind tigers. y
We expected the Mail to dodge that
question, but We did think it would
show more skill. Does the answe,
given mean yes, OF no? We had
heard that the word was being quietly
passed around that this anti-diSpen-
sary movement was a scheme against
Tillman, and our object in putting
the question was to fight 1t out III
the open if such an appeal to preju-
dice is being made. We believe that
factioualism is dead in South Caro-
lima and in Williamsburg county, and
he is a selfish, designing demagoguc
who would seek to revive it. We
hardly think anyone is SO lacking in
intelligence as to believe any such
preposterous nonsense as that the
anti dispensary people are trying to
work Tillman's undoing, but it may
be well to point out few facts that
have been lost sight of by the general
public. When. the fight was on in
the COS there were five counties that
always rolled up majority against
Tillman. These were: Charleston,
Richland, Sumter, Beaufort and
Georgetown. Has anyone heard Of
a single one of these counties trying
to vote out the dlspensary? If there
was a scheme on foot to beat Tillman
wouldn't these counties naturally
have been the ring leaders? Bring
the matter closer home. Where did
the present agitation against the dis
pensary originate: Was it where
Tillman was fought the hardest, or
did it take form in sections favorable
to Tillman? Who are today the
strongest advocates of the dispensary
system? We know il to be true that
MANY of them we're Tilllnan's bitter
est enemies. On the other hand,
