WONDERFUL DISCOVERY

When Basil Valentia, in the Middle
Ages published 1.-THE Triumphal
Career of Anthony most of the then
known world thought he had discov-
cred a way for making gold. but his
claims were false. From a different
standpoint, here in California today, a
similar claim is made.
In the shadow of the statute of Mar
shall, the discoverer of gold in Cali
fornia, a Sacramento assayer J. Addi-
son Marshall by name, has worked for
years on the fascinating problem of the
artificial production or growth" of
gold. He thinks he has solved the prob
lem on plain, scientific lines. He con-
tends that he can readily demonstrate
the artificial growth of gold from the
eliminated crystal, just as the potato
develops from the cell; that he can pro-
duce gold from silver and iron with
the incidental production of mercury
and copper.
Marshall, who was in the city to-
day, claims to be able to produce in
Gubitable proof that gold and silver
can be grown from the base minerals
and earths in the same way that vege-
tables are grown, save that metals
grow by the formation of that little
understood object, the crystal, instead
of by the building up of cells.
He calls his new discovery the dyno-
lectric system. In his opinion, it will
cause a revolution in gold getting. 1t
is system of combining the forces of
heat, electricity and chemical action
whereby the precious metals are OBJ
tanned in paying quantities from
sources never before suspected. 1t in
wolves the analysis and application of
the same laws of nature which placed
the precious metals in the earth
crust. In giving an outline of his ex-
pertinent, Mr. Marshall said:
I'm very early experiment, which
was strictly chemical, l found gold and
silver appear in the earthly matter
upon which I was experimenting
which could not be found or accounted
for by accepted methods; that is to
say, the fire assay and the chemical
analysis. With these metals also ap-
peared certain form of red iron which
amalgamated with mercury, which or
binary iron does not do. l learned
later that this was iron in a process
of change to the precious metals.
This may be a startling proposition,
but is it not supported by analogy in
every other department of Nature?
What is there in the animal or yege-
table world which has not grown
Science has stopped short at a chemi-
cal element and said it could go no
further; but would not analogy indi-
cate that even elements have grown
from simple matter? Be that as it
may, it is easily demonstrated by the
dynolectric that the molecules of gold
or silver can be grown the same as
horses or potatoes grow save that
it is by the production Of that unex-
planned organization, the crystal, while !
animals and vegeta bles grow by the |
addition of cells. This is why the re- |
suits of the earths and ores treated |
by dynolectric show an increase in the |
yield for 80, go and sometimes even 80 |
days after the treatment and until the |
chemicals or minerals in the ores are |

A Wonderful Record.

As made up by improved and exact processes Dr. Pierce'S FavOrite PreScrip- tion is most efficient remedy for regu- lating all the womanly functions, correct ing diSplacementS, as prolapsus, antever- sion and retroversiOn, overcoming painful periods, toning up the nerves and bring ing about perfect state of health. It cures the backache, periodical headaches, the dragging down distress in the pelvic region, the pain and tenderness over lower abdominal region, dries up the pelvic catarrhal drain, so disagreeable and weakening, and overcomes every form of weakness incident to the organs distinctly feminine.
 "Favorite Prescription" is the only medicine for women, the makers of which, are not afraid to print their formula on the bottle wrapper. thus taking their patrons into their full con- fdence. It is the only medicine for women, every ingredient of which has the strongest possible endorsement of the most eminent medical practitioners and writers of our day, recommending it for the diseases for which uFayorite put up medicine for women, sold through druggists, which does not con- tain large percentage of alcohol, so harmful in the long run, especially to delicate women. It has more genuine cures to its credit than all other medi- SiAACS lOi NOLltH COUlUIDeu, naNlnR saved thousands of sufferers from the operating table and the surgeons knife. It has restored delicate. weak women to strong and vigorous health and virility. making motherhood possible, where there was barrenness before, thereby brighten ing, and making happy many thousands of homes by the advent of little ones to strengthen the marital bonds and add sunshine where gloom and despondency had reigned before.

The Enemy Giving Ground.

A special to The Republican from F M. Murphy expresses the utmost confidence in the failure in the house of the joint statehood bill as it now stands. This confidence is an appar- ent continuation of a hope for some time entertained by the friends of Ari- zona who have been in Washington since the opening Of congress- The in- timation contained in the dispatch that the joint statehood question will be divided indicates that Congressman Tawney has won a victory. A separa- tion of the question would insure the admission of Oklahoma against which there is no opposition anywhere. With out separation that territory and the Indian territory agreed on all sides to be entitled to admission would cer- tainly be excluded again as they were in the last congress, clogged to death by Beveridges folly in linking the un- willing territories of Arizona and New Mexico with the first two territoies.
 The division of the question into it's natural parts-if the proposition to join New Mexico and Arizona could by any stretch of imagination be regarded as natural-will insure their safety. A New Mexico Arizona bill offered on its own merits would be without the ghost of a chance.
 This segregation of the question has been advised by the leading press Of the country. partly on the grounds of justice and partly on the grounds of expediency and ordinary common sense.
 This was the very thing which the house leaders boasted two weeks ago would not be done. They were going to introduce a rule to prevent the do- ing of it on the floor of the house; they were going to push the Hamilton bill through precisely as Senator Be- verldge had desired it to go through and just as the president had said it should go through. It is now evident that the rule is unavailable and that the concession suggested by the Washington Post a month ago is about to he made
