the resolution learned that MT. Camp bell was already as good as appoint ed. It appeared to him, therefore, that there would be a seeming i1npro- priety in the offering of the resolution. The people of the territory, however. are none the less thankful to him for his good offices in the creation of a new judicial district.
 It will now be necessary for the leg islature to define the bounds of the district and it is possible that within the next few days several bills set ting fo~th the ideas of the members will be presented
 Speaker Webb said last night that while he had no bill prepared he had in mind new judicial map of the territory. According to it the districts are as follows: Maricopa and Pinal; Pima. and Yuma; Santa Cruz and Co., chise; Graham and Gila. There is no change in the northern district from which no complaint has come of over work
 A telephone message was received from Tucson last night saying that an effort was on foot there to have Judge Tucker who has been appointed to the first district transferred to the new fifth and to have MT. Campbell located in the first with headquarters in Tue son with Allen D. Jaynes, editor of the Tucson Post, as his clerk

THE NEW FIFTH JUDGE
He Will Probably Be Assistant U. s.
 Attorney J. H. Campbell.

There was a great deal of conjec- ture yesterday morning regarding the identity of the judge of the new fifth judicial district or which will be the fifth judicial district as soon as the president has signed the bill passed by the house of representatives on Thurs day. It was not long, however, before 1t became more or less widely known that Assistant United States Attorney John H. Campbell of Tucson would be the new judge. A petition for his ap- pointment was in circulation but that is probably a superfiuous effort. for MT. Campbell is not without influence of a more pulling kind than that of his friends in this territory.
 It was quite we'll known that Mir. Campbell was almost solely responsible for the success of the bill in congress; that but for him it would hardly have passed. Mir. Campbell is almost as near to Speaker Cannon as one of the the members of his family. and, in deed, for many years resided at the Cannon home. He had been assured by the speaker that the bill would be we'll treated in the house and , through the influence of the speaker, Senator Platt of Connecticut under took to show every courtesy in the senate where it was introduced. Those who were without the knowledge of this friendliness in high places toward the bill marvelled at the celerity with which it progressed through both | houses.
 F When it was known through the col umns of The Republican yesterday morning that the bill had passed the house member of the legislature knowing the part MT. Campbell had |, had in the matter and not knowing that he would probably be the fifth ! judge. drew up a resolution of thanks which he was going to present in the lower house later in the day. Before it was presented, however. the author ol

Discovery.'" writes Frank Startz, Nj D.. of Flatonia. Fayette Co.,, Texas. THe bought fou. bottles from our druggist here. and after he had used the first bottle he began to improve. Some times he was unable to walk ten steps; he can ride any horse without any pain in his back and he looks as well and sound as young boy His age is only 28 He has suffered for nearly three years and several other doctors called the case incurable but had confidence in Dr. R. " Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. I have been offered one hundred dollars several times all ready for my kind advice, but would not accept it because I want everybody to know what Dr. Pierce's famous mSiicine can do.
 "This testimony is absolutely true, and the reason I haven't mentioned the young gentle mans name is because he don't want to have his name published.n
 Accept no substitute for "Golden Medical Discovery" The sole motive for substitution is to enable the dealer to make the little more profit paid on the sale of less mcritorious preparations.
 Dr. Pierce,s Pleasant Pellets stimulate the action of the sluggish liver They should always be used with Discovery" when there is need of a laxative.
