OUT ON THE ROAD WITHOUT
 SALARY.

The author of "The PettisOn Twins Marion Hill-publishes in The Amer ican Magazine for January a story of Christmas with transformers. It is wonderful picture of second or third rate theatrical life. out on the road doing that pitiless, nerve racking tread mill known as "One-night stands" the Herselet Comedy Company was playing to empty houses and emty treasuries- for seventeen weeks without salaries There was Herselet. the manager and leading man. and Mrs. Herselet-'Let- % tice Jerome" on the bills-and their poor neglected three year-Old girl baby. Then there was 'Dede Devere." who with big. honest eyes played ingenues. and "Candia Ransome," "oId timer" comedy and fat. who could go or for fourteen-y year-old Juliet, or the age stricken nurse. and do either or both equally well-Or badly. Johnny Banks was the stalwart stage carpenter. also property man, sometimes advance agent. He was "cries without and "howls of the pOpulace." Belle Martin. billed as "The Martini" barely twenty. had gone the untraceable road that leads nowhere but to remorse. Finally there was Will Millikin. cast for the God-bless-you parts. after whom the story is named.
 These are the characters in a tale as real and interesting as any the au- thor of The Pettison Twins ever wrote.
 It Is understood Mrs. Hill is to write a whole series of theatrical stories for The American Magazine.

CURE cATARRH NOW.
Do Not Wait Until Winter or Disease
 Win Become Chronic.

Many people in Phoenix are begin ming 10 cough and hack with the fall symptoms of disagreeable and offensive catarrh. The tongue is coated in the morning, and they do not sleep well at night on account of disagreeable tick ling and dropping at the back of the throat as a result of catarrh. Before the disease becomes chronic they should use Hyomei and get complete freedom from their catarrhal troubles.
 If you neglect to treat catarrh when it first comes on. the chances are that it will become SO firmly rooted and deep-seated that it will bother you all winter and may become chronic and almost incurable.
 The first days use of Hyomei will show a decided improvement in health. and in a short time there will be no further trouble. and you will be free from catarrh. and coughs and colds will not bother you during the winter.
 Remember that Hyomei is sold under an absolute guarantee that it costs nothing unless it cures. The Larson Drug Co. have sold a great many Hyomei outfits, every one with their personal guarantee that it costs noth- ing unless it cures, and they have seen so many remarkable evidences of the curative powers of Hyomei that they will be very glad to continue giving this guarantee with every package.

THE OKLAHOMA CONVENTION.

When the Oklahoma constitutional convention resumes its labors after the holidays it will find that the people
 have discovered that it has been ex-
 cecd.ng its powers by sitting as a
 gerrymandering convention. The two
 territories have been fearfully muti-
 lated in the changing of county bound
 aries. generally for political purposes.
 The convention is so nearly demo- cratic that the republican members may disclaim the slightest respOnsi- bility for anything that may be done or may be left undone. Overwhelm- ingly democratic as Oklahoma proved itself to be in the election of consti- tutional delegates. there are few parts of the new state satisfied with the new county scheme, which it is generally asserted, was not properly the busi- ness of the convention but should have been left to the legislature.
 The delegates have made the mistake es supposing that people as a mass are more interested in the political complexion of the counties in which they live than they are in the condi- tions which make for convenience and material benefit.
 The work of the Oklahoma conven- tion is destined to undergo a great deal of revision. It is certain that much that has been done will not meet the approval of the president and it is equally certain that the proposed county arrangement will not live through the first legislature.

PHOENIX. ARIZ., DEC. 31, 1906.
THE END OF THE SHOOT CASE.

THE END OF THE SHOOT CASE.
 The gentlemen who foreJell what is going to happen in congress intimate that the Shoot case has probably been officially heard of for the last time, though no doubt much will be heard Of it throughout the official life of Mir. Shoot, especially in those circles where he had already been convicted and or dered discharged long before the mat ter was submitted to his colleagues in the senate.
 In spite of the enthusiasm with which the prosecutors of MT. Shoot went after him and in spite of the ap- parent willingness and even cheerful ness with which the senate took up the complaints with the purpose apparent ly of ratifyiEg all the adverse findings Of the self-constituted tribunals where MT. Shoot had been tried and convict ed, we were of the opinion that he would be permitted 10 complete his term.
 The senate has a gracious and polite way of conducting itself where ladies are involved as so many thousands of them all over the land were ir this Shoot case. But after all there seem ed no reason why Mir. Shoot was not eligible to a seat in the senate.
 The only thing after all that could be ,yruaJ ara in Sr hin, ,,-.s rr,o+ lo ,,-,e a Mormon and loved his church. There was no evidence that he had engaged in the practice of polygamy or had encouraged the practice which even the church was supposed to have abandoned. The evidence did show, however. that he was a very clean gentleman much superior in morals to a predecessor who was lately shot to death by a woman in Washington ! hotel and who by the way was not a 1 Mormon.
 Among other things brought out by | the investigation was the remarkable | absence of any fault or weakness of | Mir. Shoot.
 We do not like to speak of matters of which We know nothing. but we may say that II is doubtful if the raking over of the private and public lives Of the colleagues Of MT. Shoot would re- veal in all of them so much of good ness and so little of badness.
 If as has been surnised. the senate intends to let the matter rest where |. lies, that will not be quite respectful to those who instituted the question of Hr. Shoots eligibility nor will it De quite in justice to Mir. Shoot. It may be the easiest way out of it but it can not be the most satisfactory way. A vindicatioI even of the Utah senator would show to his prosecutors outside the senate that that body had taken them with at least apparent serious ness.

COMMON SENSE

Leads most intelligent people to use only
 meddines of known composition. There fore (t Is that Dr. Pierce's medicines. the
 makerS19 w4ich print every ingredient
 entering h3o them upon the bottle wrap
 pers and attest its correctness under oath,
 are daily grbIing in favor. The com
 position of Dkl Pierce's medicines is open
 to everybody,vDr. Pierce being deslrous
 of having the seaIc6 Ight of lnYestIga:
 ton turned fully upon his formule, telng
 confident that fhe better the comnosTrion
 Ql these- medicines IS known the more
 nlzed. Being wholly made of the active
 medicinal principles extracted from na- tive forest roots, by exact processes original with Dr. Pierce, and without the use of drop of alcohol, triple-refned and chemically pare glycerine being used in- stead in extracting and preserving the curative virtues residing in the roots employed, these medicines are entirely free from the objection of doing harm by creating an appetite for either al- coholic beverages or habit forming drugs. Examine the formula on their bottle wrappers-the same as sworn to by Dr. Pierce, and you will find that his Golden Medical Discovery" the great, blood purifier, stomach tonic and bowel regulator-the medicine which, while not recommended to cure consumption in it's advanced stages tho medicine will do that yet does cure all those catarrhal condi. tlons of head and throat, weak stomach, torpid liver and bronchial troubles, weak lungs and hang-On-coughs, which, if neg lected or badly treated lead up to and finally terminate in consumption.
 Take the "Golden Medical Discovery. tn time and it Is not likely to disappoint you II only you give it thorough and fGtr trial Don't expect miracles. It won't do supernatural things You must exercise your patience and persevere in it's use Tor reasonable length of time to get Its full benefits. The ingredients of which pr. Pierce's medicines arc composed have the unqualified endorsement of scores of 1 medical leaders-better than any amount oi lay. or non-prOfeSs:Onal, testimonials. 1 They are not given away to be experi- | nsnted with but are sold by all dealers ip | medicines at reasonable prices.

A threat of ineficiency in the postal service in consequence of meager sal aries will he the same as strike if it can be made to impress congress. 4 service in which practically every citi- zen Is interested cannot be permitted to become noticeably inefficient with out responsibility resting heavily on somebody. The people would naturally look to congress first.

The Minnesota teachers seem to have precipitated themselves into the sim piified spelling affair after it had ceased to be a controversy. Their sup port of the president comes after he has abandoned his position. However. If congress had been informed how the Minnesota teachers felt about it, We do not suppose the result would have been different Let the teachers thresh 1t out with MT. Tawney. who helped stab simplified spelling to death.

The year is closing red with railroad wrecls which are unusually disastrous
 in point of the dead and maimed. II has curiously happened, beginning with the wreck on the Southern railway in which President Spencer lost his life on Thanksgiving day, that all these accidents have occurred within the supposed protection of the block sys- tenn, supplemented by such other pre- cautions as railway managements would natuI ally throw about their own property and their patrons. The trouble seems to be not so much in the carelessness of the employees of the roads as in the great growth of busi- ness in the country which is overtax- ing all railroad lines and especially those of the east. It may be reason ably surmised that the train of "empties" which crashed into a pas senger train near Washington yes5er- day was not running sixty miles an at its destination at the earliest pos sible moment. If the death list of the coming year should be reduced it will probably not be because greater pre- cautions shall be applied but because the roads will have discovered a way to meet the growing domand which the public is making on them.
