Bryson. president Of the Syndicate
Loan Company Of Los Angeles. was.
according to a story told In court to-
day, implicated in the gigantic swim
dies perpetrated IN Arizona about
year ago by John F. Harcourt and
Ezra Bartlett, the biggest gambler Ii
the Territory. At the preliminary hear
ing Of Bartlett, which was held to-
day, Harcourt, who was represented by
former Governor Gage, turned States
evidence and told how Bryson fur
nished them with money with which
to purchase the paste diamonds. Bry-
son, be said, shared equally IN the
profits.
Bartlett picked out Albert Steinfeld
z millionaire merchant Of Tucson, fol-
their victim and Bryson sent Harcourt
down from Los Angeles TO work on
him, according 10 the latter's testi-
q nony. Bryson put up S2z00 for the
Jewels, gave Barcourt pawn ticket

them to him at Tuscon c. o. d. for that
amount. On Bartlett's recommends
ton Steinfeld loaned S12,50O on the jew

company. From that amount Bryson
deducted the cost Of the jewels and re-
mitted half Of the balance to Harcourt
When Harcourt was arrested Bartlett
and Bryson made no effort TO get him
attorneys or bondsmen and after lying
in jail fOl four months he decided TO
give the whole affair away.

POLITICAL PARTIES
FUSE AT WOODLAND
Democrats and Republicans Agree on
Local Ticket and There VIII Be
No Contest in April


WOODLAND, March II. - The
Democrats and Republicans Of Wood
land have agreed TO fuse at the COM
ing municipal election in April, at
which time three members each of the
Beard Of City Trustees and City Board
Of Education are TO be elected. The
Democrats have the privilege of nomi-
nat ting two members of each board and
the Republicans one each. This con-
cession was granted to the Democrats
in view Of the fact that two retiring
members Of the Trustees are Demo-
Gratis and all three retiring members
Of the Board Of Education are of the
same political party. By thus elimi-
mating a contest better men can be
induced to accept somewhat arduous
and thankless positions. The Repub-
leans last night named W. H. Troop,
incumbent, for Trustee. and J. Reith
Jr for member of the Board of Edu-
cation. The Democrats named W. R.
Wilcoxson and z. A. Kaufman, in
cUmbents, for the Board of Education,
and Joseph Craig for Trustee. The
other member of the Board Of Trus-
tees will be selected by the central

Two Million Dollars

Have been spent to, make Liquo-
zone known. We have bought the first
bottle and given it free to every sick
one we learned of. The result is that
one home in FIVE, the country over,
has some one whom Liquozone has
cured. These homes are scattered
everywhere. Your neighbors and
friends live in some of them. If you
will only ask what Liquozone does
there are millions to tell you about it.
And we paid 100000 for the simple
right to make Liquozone-the Ameri-
can rights. The rights in other coun-
tries have sold for proportionate
sums. We mention this fact to indi-
cate the recognized value of Liquo-
zone. Men have never before paid
such a price for any discovery used
IN the cure of sickness.
Before we bought Liquozone we had
it tested for years, through physicians
and hospitals in this country and 9th
ers. We had it employed in every
stage OF every germ disease; in thou
sands of the most difficult cases OBJ
tainable. For two years, in many a
disease called incurable, we proved
that Liqozone did what medicine
could not do. That was the reason
for its price.

CITY AUDITOR OF NAPA
RAISES NICE POINT OF LAW
Refuses to Draw Warrant for Inn
proyement Work as Contractor
Is Member of Council.

NAPA, March 11.-A short time ago
the City Council decided to improve
the triangle of the park at Second and
Wilson streets by erecting a stone
drinking fountain. The ladies of the
New Century Club, an improvement
organization of Napa, put in bid for
$500 and were awarded the contract
for doing the work. They subsequent
ly employed j. B. Newman, a contrac-
tor, to do the work and he completed it.
To-day City Auditor j. I. York refused
to draw a warrant in payment for the
work on the ground that Newman was
member of the City Council and so
could not legally accept contract for
wcrk that must be passed on by the
City Council. The City Council had
ordered the bill paid, but it is now
probable that a warrant will not be
drawn.

offer of $1,000 for disease germ that
it cannot kill. Yet it is not only
harmless but of wonderful benefit
better than anything else in the world
for you. No one is so we'll that he
cannot be helped by it.
The reason is that germs are vege-
tables, and Liquozone-like an ex-
cess of oxygen-is deadly to vegetal
matter. To the human body Liquo-
zone is exhilarating, vitalizing, purify
ing-the most needful, the most help
full thing possible. But to germs it is

Germ Diseases.

These are the known germ diseases;
all due to germs or to the poisons
which germs create These are the
diseases to which medicine does not
apply, for drugs cannot kill inside
germs.
All that medicine can do for these
troubles is to act as a tonic, aiding
Nature to overcome the germs. But
those results are indirect and uncer-
tain, depending on the patients CON
dition. A cure is always doubtful
when drugs are used, and some of
these diseases medicine never cures.
Liquozone alone can destroy the
cause of these troubles. 1t goes wher-
ever the blood goes, SO that no germ
can escape it. The results are al
most inevitable. Diseases which have
resisted medicine for years yield az
once to Liquozone. "Incurable" dis
eases are cured by it. In any stage of
any disease in this list the results are
so certain that we will gladly send to
any patient who asks it an absolute
guaranty.

What Eiquozone is.

Liquozone IS product which in
the past two years has sprung into
worldwide use IN the treatment OF
germ diseases. It IS now used by the
sick OF nine nations; by physicians
and hospitals everywhere. 1t is daily
used IN millions OF homes in America.
The virtues OF Liquozone are de-
rived solely from gas, made in large
part from the best oxygen producers.
No drugs. no alcohol--nothing but
llls gas enters into 1t. The process
- making takes II days, and re
quircs immense apparatus. At the
cnd of fwo weeks We get one cubic
.ach II Liquozonc for each 1850 cubic

OF his product has, for more than 20

How Liquozone Cures.

The greatest value OF Liquozone lies
IN the fact that it kills germs in the
body without killing the tissues, too.
And no man knows another way to
do It. Any drug that kills germs is
a poison, and it cannot be taken in
ternally. For that reason, medicine is
almost helpless in any germ disease.
