Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is infam-
ed you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, Deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inhamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.

New Era Of Farming.

We have reached a time of I'M
proved methods in farming and of
fertility to the soil. Much is heard
about the increase in the fertilizer
trade of the country-and the
development of this industry has
been commensurate with that of
other large business interests, but
the real improvement of farming
is found more largely in better
methods of mardling the soil than
in the wider use of commercial
manures. Scientists are teaching
farmers here and there, and from
them others are learning, how to
reiuvenate and rebuild their land
by the use of alfalfa, cowpeas,
vetch and other crops. They are
learning how to diversity their
products. Increasing wealth and
the gain in population are creating
an almost unlimited market for the
diversified crops. The orchard,
the truck garden, the dairy, are all
yielding their fair share of wealth
and helping materially to swell
these great totals of agricultural
output and increase in farm values.

MESSAGE ON NEGRO SOL
DER OUTRAGE.

The strenuous efforts of the par
tisans in congress of the negro
soldiers of the Twenty-6fth Infan-
try who were discharged without
honor, on account of their COM
plicity or actual guilt in the out
rage upon Brownsville of Aug. Is
last, have called forth a special
message from President Roosevelt
upon the subject, which was pub
lished yesterday. The message sets
forth explicitly the atrocity of the
crime the incontrovertible evidence
of the guilt of the soldiers, and
explains clearly and convincingly
NOT only his right to discharge the
entire battalion, but also the abso-
late justice and fairness of such a
course. In regard to the charge
made by the defenders of the negro
soldiers that the course advised by
General Darlington should not
have been adopted because he is a
native of South Carolina and
hence prejudiced against the me-
sroes," the message points out
that his decision was based rather
upon the findings of Major A. P.
Blocksom, who first Investigated
the crime. and who comes from
Ohio, and of Lient. Col. L. A.
Lowering. who halls from New
Hampshire. The letter of Gen.
A. B. Nettleton relative TO the
affair, which was published in full
in THE HERALD. is also included
IN the report to congress, and is
referred to by the President as
important corroborative testimony.
His home is in Illinois. Mr..
Roosevelt, however, very properly
repels the slightest suggestion that
sectionalism had anything to do
with the case, and says plainly
that, even had all of these officers
been Southern men, he would not
have acted differently. He goes
farther. and says that, had the
offenders been white soldiers, his
action would have been even more
summary and severe. The claim
for clemency in behalf of those of
the discharged soldiers who had
long and faithful service to their
credit, he denies upon the very
good grounds that it was even
more the duty of such men than
of the others to deliver up their
guilty comrades to justice.
The Presidents right to dismiss
the entire battalion is shown plain
1y both in his message and in the
the report of Secretary of War
Taft, which accompanies the mes
sage, both statute and precedent
establishing the right beyond dis
pute.
The entire tone of the presidents
message rings true with manly
determination to stand by the
course which honest conviction
has pointed out as the only wise
fair and consistent course to
pursue. His action in this matter,
IN the face of such strenuous op-
position in the ranks of his own
party, has done much to win for
Roosevelt the admiration and graf
ztude of the South and to heal
sseme Of the hurts which the
sssusibillties of this section had felt
IN account of past actions of his.

RELATIVE TO THE
EXPERIMENTAL FARM
Ne citing Of Business Men Held and
Action Decided Upon.

! BIalack or the Business Men
Club, a HERALD representative
was present this morning at {
meeting of a number of our lead
ing business men, which was hello
at the Office of Judge Wells for the
purpose of considering the matter
of securing the botanical garden
which the government proposes
to establish in this section for
Brownsville. Those present be-
side the reporter were P. E.
Balack, Judge ]. B. Wells, J. A.
Browne, w. NJ. Radcliffe. S. L.
Dworman, VIM. Kelly, L. K.
Morris, Gen. A. B. Nettleton, T.
Crixell, S. c. Tucker, DR.. F. J.
Combe,-J. L. Landrum, and the
secretary of the Business Mems
Club.
A letter from Congressman
Garner was read, and also one
from DR.. Beverly T. Galloway,
chief of the Bureau of Plant In
dustry, to Mr.. Garner, which was
enclosed in that of the latter.
From these letters it was learned
that, inasmuch as a bonus of
$4,000. and 100 acres of land within
half a mile of the hotel, $500 for
water, has been pledged by the
Rio Grande canal company to
induce the department to locate
the plant gardens at Mercedes, the
money being already in bank
subject to order, Brownsville will
be expected to come up with this
offer before her application can
be considered. In other words,
Brownsville must not only guar
antee $4,000 in cash, which must
be deposited in bank subject to
check. but must also donate 100
acres of land adjacent to hotel &C
commodations and guarantee water
for use on the farm.
Mr.. Garner also reported that he
had induced the department to
postpone its final decision until
Jan. 1, in order to give Browns
vile time to comply with the
foregoing requirements.
The amount so far subscribed by
Brownsville was reported at this
meeting to be about $4,000. The
remaining $1,000 required has been
guaranteed, however. by the citi-
zeus in charge of the subscription,
and would doubtless be easily
secured. Mr.. Radcliffe, on behalf
of the Brownsville Land and Irriga-
ton company. stated that water
would be furnished for the farm at
So per acre per year, provided it
be within reach of the company s
canal. The land has been offered
by several land owners in the
of Brownsville, but un-
fortunately, so far, none is in
sight which would be adjacent to
a hotel.
After considering the matter at
length, it was decided to send a
representative to Washington to
confer with the department and |
endeavor to secure the plant farm
for Brownsville if possible. At the
same time such representative will
be expected to push the interests
of this section in the matter of the
canal, and also to rep
resent Brownsville in the case of
the negro soldier outrage.
A subscription of $3.50 will be
taken up to defray the expenses of
said representative The secretary
of the Business Mems Club was
selected for this mission and each
of those who participated in this
meeting subscribed $40 towards
the payment of his expenses.
Bravery.

cannot ride out but has to carry his wheel out and mount if.
 The objection is not q valid one. Tn the first place the gutters are primar- fly intended for the purpose of carry ing off the water and to prevent the forming of stagnant and disease breed ing pools. The latter part of the ob-. jection is not at all for the average bicyclist by starting from the bottom of the gutter to the outer edge at a sharp angle along the smooth surface can get out much more easily than he could out of the old fashioned rough depression which in some parts of the towns serves for gutter. The objec- tion in favor Of the horses cannot be wholly overcome since gutters are not made for horses to stand in.
 But the gutter designed by MT. Tur- ney and which has been completed in front of the office of Dwight B. Heard is the least objectionable to weary horses. The gutter has been made broader and the upward curve is flat ter In order that it may carry the necessary amount of water it strikes the curb three inches lower down.

KENTUCKY AND ARIZONA
 STOCKHOLDERS HERE
for Systematic Work
 on the Property.


 Pettet Robinson, a stockholder of the Kentucky & Arizona Mining com pany, arrived here yesterday morning joining Shirley M. Crawford, secretary and treasurer of the company, who has been here for the last two weeks. William Votteler, vice president of the company was here recently, leaving last week. All these gentlemen live in Louisville and represent the capital in terested in the enterprise of the com pany. which owns several groups Of claims in the Cave Creek district. Ar engagements have been made for sys- tematic and extensive work and Mir. Crawford will leave tonight for Cali fornia. He will be back about the first of May for an extensive stay at the property, which is under the superin- tendency of J. D. Marian.
 The principal group owned by the company, or at least the property on which the most extensive operations are to follow. is known as the Copper Top group. The establishing Of large camp there will begin Monday morning by the starting of work on bunk houses, offices and mess house and the erec- ton of a fifteen horsepower steam hoist the machinery for which is all ready on the ground. It is designed to
 
 tinuously hereafter, first in camp building and subsequently in the de- veloDment of the mine toward which there is already a good start made. sufficient at least to reveal to the own CTS the promise of great wealth later on
 The present development of this pro- perty consists of one shaft 155 feet deep, one shaft ninety feet deep, one shaft seventy feet deep, a tunnel 150 feet into the hill land at the face of it a winze eighty feet deep. In addition to these workings they are now down seventy-fve feet deep on what is known as the working shaft. It is 5x7 and consists of two small com partments, one for the bucket and the other for a man-w way. The hoist will be erected over this shaft which is ali in ore, and sinking will be continued as fast as possible. There is now a nice little pile of good ore on the dump, taken from this shaft, though of course not a great tonnage.
 The company owns the eighty ton smelting plant at Alhanbra. and it is proposed in the near future, or just as soon as the development of the ore bodies justifies it, to move this smelt- ing plant to the mine.
 The company will also start develop mcnt work in a small way on various other groups which it owns. probably two or three men in place, one Of which is the group known as the Me Kay property on Cave Creek. The company seems to be well supplied with the capital necessary for it's en- terprises and is inaugurating opera tions that should very soon make tine Kentucky & Arizona camp a busy place.

Stapley C Go. In the rear of this build ing was stored a large amount of car tridges and some black powder. which soon began to explode so that the fire workers were compelled to beat a re- treat until the explosion was over. This raised the roof and ii fell to the ground leaving the west wall of the Stapley building to head off the fire. The wind died down about this time and there began to be hopes that the rest of the town would be saved. A bucket brigade was soon formed and the walls on the opposite buildings were drenched with water, and the flames finally receded between the walls of the four buildings.
 The fire appeared so ominous and the men SO eager to do something that when the doors of few of the build- ings were broken open it was not long until the stocks were headed for the streets. and was not stopped until ev- cry building down the street east was emptied to the Mesa City Bank, ex- cepf the stock of drugs of Cooley & Holiday. The actual loss by fire GOV cred the entire stock and building of Passey & Nets, and is estimated at $6.- 900; the building and stock of O. S. Stapley & Co, estimated at $14.000, the buildings of Geo. Nj. Fryer. and the offices of Wells Fargo Express and the Mesa Cooperative Milling Co, estimat- ed at $3.0OO.
 All of the glass in the windows across the street was broken by the fire and the explosion. as well as many down the street. There was q big loss in the stocks that were moved into the streets. After this was done, wa ter was turned into the street and flooded much of the goods which had been carried out. The Toggery and A Hunsaker suffered most from this cause of damage. In the haste and excitement the goods were dumped down and trodden under foot
