THE passing of Jerry Simpson, which occurred last week at his former home in Kansas removes from the political sphere a most re- markable character. Jerry was looked upon by majority of people as demagogue, but in Washington, where he was well known, he was re- garded as an honest man, with far more than average intelligence, even among congressman. He was con- scientious in all that he did, and he lived to see many of the ideas for which he was bitterly arraigned by both parties, adopted into their plat forms. He labored necessarily for the adoption of the initiative and refer. endum, which would remove the great issues of the day from the in fluence and contamination of the corrupt bosses and party leaders Jerry Simpson will be sincerely mourned by many who knew hin best

ON another page of this paper will be found an article giving some of the sickening details of the crime for which Walter Trimble was convicted in this county. The ERA feels that an apology is due it's readers for printing the article, but it must be remembered that there are now many people living in this county who never even heard of the case until after the pardon was granted. As citizens they are entitled to know the facts in the case, which are given briefly in the article referred to. The statements as made in the arti- cle, we believe, are correct in the main, but columns of further details could have been added. As the ERA stated weeks ago the pardoning of Trimble is territorial scandal. It is worse. It is an attack upon the very civilization of our country, for if such monsters are turned loose to prey upon the children of the land, then it is only a step to barbarism in it's most repugnant forms. The ERA has repeatedly demanded that the governor make public the entire cor respondence in the matter. The people are entitled to it and should have it. If our governor has been imposed upon they have right tc know it, and by whom. Give us al the facts in the matter, and then lei the people draw their own conclusions In the meantime it is probably not necessary to state that no more criminals will be sent from Grahan II county to the penitentiary for lik' offense. Justice will be meted out t( them in a summary manner, as fl should have been to Trimble at the time he committed the crime fol which he was afterwards pardoned by Governor Kihhey,

MT. George Samuels has secured the great New York success, "A De- serted Bride,' and will produce it in it's entirety on the first tour of his company over his new circuit. The stage settings are said to be the most elaborate ever seen here, among them being views of Chicago's famous localities, staged with such close at tention to realism as to make it diff cult for the theatre-goer to realize that he is not in the presence of the real thing.
 The plot is strange and thrilling, and full of many surprising situations.

opinion that the people of the lower valley are not as strong advocates of county division as the people up this way have been lead to believe. If the Guardian is correct the chances are that the issue will be removal in- stead of division. And come to think of it removal would be the most sensible thing to do under the circumstances. The county must have new court house and jail any way in a very short time, and why not build it in this end of the county, where nine-tenths of the business comes from?

THE printers international union is going to adopt a practical method of bringing the publishers of San Antonio to time in labor matters, by establishing a complete printshop. This we think, is much more sensi- ble thing to do than to furnish funds f5i. fsi.= the striking printers to live on. The Typographical union is having trouble all over the United States and expects to spend a million dol lars in feeding strikers. Why not start printing offices in all the cities, and thus not only give the strikers employment, but at the same time cut into the business of the "rat'' ShOnS

THERE seems no longer reason able doubt that laborers have been imported from Mexico under con tract to work on the government dam at San Carlos. It is certainly a serious reflection upon the integrity or capacity of United States officials when work of this kind can be car ried on without even an investigation.

The Detroit Copper Mining com pany has just bought a number of claims in the district adjoining the Santa Rosa mine near Metcalf and will commence developing them at once. The work done on the Santa Rosa during the past year has done much to develop the claims and it is thought by mining men familiar with the district that these claims will some day prove to be of great value. The fact that there is considerable activity in the vicinity of the Met calf district makes it more than likely that the coming year will prove to be the most prosperous ever known in the district. Both the De- troit and Arizona companies, after the completion of their new concen- trators, will have to greatly increase their output of crude ore in order to keep their plants in operation and undoubtedly good territory will be in demand besides the fact that it will mean large increase in the force of miners.-Morenci Leader.
 The impression seems to have gone out that Clifton is a dull town. This is probably caused by the dullness in saloon circles. Owing to the low license booze is sold by about every store in town. In all other lines busi- ness is unusually good. More build ings are going up in Clifton than at any other time in the history of the town. All mechanics in the building line are busy as bees, and have been all summer, and there is enough work in prospect to keep them busy all winter. Clifton is not dull, neither is there a surplus of miners or labor. CTS, and with the many large enter prises now under way, there is not apt to be. In fact it will soon be a difficult matter to supply the labor needed. During the past year a large number of colored laborers have drifted into Clifton and they all fin6 steady employment, and seem wei satisfied. Should a shortage of com mon labor occur here at any time it could be supplied from the black belt of Texas.

FACTS ABOUT PARK
With Iowa River at Its Highest Point
This Spring Fully Three Fourths Of
the New City Park Land Has Not
Been Submerged.

With Engineer Hans Madsen, Of
the city pumping station, authority
for the statement that at noon today
the Iowa river was foot and one half
higher than at any previous time this
spring, and with the lowland border
ing the river from the Center street
road to Third avenue almost all sub
merged, three -fourths of the land OF
the new city park is above water. A
Times Republican reporter visited the
park this afternoon and found not to
exceed ten acres. including the land on
both sides of the river, under water.
Most of the park land stands from
two to three feet above the present
water level, and most of the water on
the land covers the low places which
will be made into a series OF lagoons,
once the tract is transformed into a
park. The large pond on the east
side of the road and on the same tract
of land, is not on the city park proper
ty, neither is the land just east of the
low bridge, the first one on this side
of the.river, thru which a large stream
of water is now flowing.
Practically the only direct current Of
wafer flowing on the land is in the
ditch along the east side of the Third
avenue road. This water enters from
the river just east of the Third avenue
bridge. Almost all of the water on
the, land is back water, which comes
in from the east. The drive into the
park will cut off the direct flow from
the. river and the drive to be built
around the property will stop the in
flow of back water. The little point
of park property across the river is
under water, but the statement made
on the streets this morning that water
was running over the Third avenue
road into the park is not according to
facts. This road at its lowest point,
is from two to three feet above the
water level The south bank of the
river along the park front stands from
foot to two feet above the water A
statement circulated on the street this
morning was to the effect that all but
ten of the forty acres comprising the
park were under water.

CATARRHAL TROUBLES COMMON
Spring Months Cause catarrh =
Breathe Hyomei and Be Cured.

Catarrhal troubles are more COM
mon at this season than at any other
time of the year. The sudden chang
es that come during the spring
months are productive of many cases
of catarrh that without proper treat
ment will become chronic.
The pleasantest, most convenient,
and only scientific method for the
treatment and cure of catarrh is
Hyomei. Simply put twenty drops in
the little pocket inhaler that comes
with every outfit and then breathe
it for three minutes four times
day
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but one dollar, and as the inhaler
viii last life time, and there is suf-
ficient Hyomei for several weeks
treatment it is the most economical
catarrhal remedy known. Extra bot
ties can be procured for fifty cents.
Ask Mcbride & Will to show you the
strong guarantee under which they sell
Hyomei
