The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages and
that is Catarrah. Halls Catarrah Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrah be-
ing constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Catar-
rah Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surface of the system, thereby destroy
ing the foundation of the disease, and
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitutional and as
sisting nature in doing it's work. The
proprietors have so much faith in it's
curative powers, that they offer on
Hundred Dollars for any case it fails to
cure. Send for list of testimonials.

Weak
Hearts

Are due to indigestion. Ninety-nine CT every
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when 1t was simple indiges-
ton. 1t is scientific fact that all cases OF
heart disease, not organic, are not only
traceable to, but are the direct result of indi-
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach, putting it up against the
heart. This interferes with the action of
the heart, and in the course of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.
Mr.. D. Kauble, of Nevada, O., says: had stomach
trouble and was in bad state as had heart trouble

Can Talk without ronpus.

"There seems to be a mistaken i'm
preston abroad" remarked a doctor
the other day In speaking Of the case
of a man who had his tongue cut out in
an effort to cure a case Of cancer of
that member, that when a man is
unfortunate enough to lose his tongue
thenceforth all power of speech is
denied him. This is not so. While it is
true that not many men survive this
operation for any great length of time,
1t Is equally true that they can speak
SO long as they live and with only a
comparatively slight impediment in
their utterances. If you will hold a
pencil crossways between your teeth
and speak while it remains in that DO
sition you can get just the effect it
has on human speech when the tongue
Is entirely removed"

Sea or Desertf

II 1t be true, as conjectured by the
latest explorers, that Lake Chad is rap
Idly drying up, the process will proba-
bly, be regarded by the geologists as
simply continuation of one which has
been going on for ages in northern At
rica. The whole Of the Sahara was
certainly once either an arm of the
sea or a vast lake, and Lake Chad is
probably only the final remnant of that
huge sheet Of water. The Sahara sea
must always have been very shallow,
a fact which made its evaporation
easy, and Lake Chad Is reported to be
little more than a morass over the
greater portion Of its area.

The Statehood Bill.

The effort to toIst Arizona into the
union as state in conjunction with
New Mexico is unique spectacle in
the history OF the United States.
Arizona does not want to become a
state welded to New Mexcio. The
people of the latter territory have nc
objections to being thus united, pro-
baby for the reason that being in the
majority numerically they would
have the control of the new state.
The people of the two territories are
wide apart, in sentiment racial char
acteristics and commercial instincts.
New Mexico clings to the past. Her
history, people and customs reach
back to the early times of the settle
ment of the white man on the Ameri-
can continent, and Notwithstanding
It's antiquity, it is the most backward
part OF the United States. Her citi-
zens are mostly MexIcsns, and they
cling to their old time traditions and
ways tenaciously. Arizona, on the
other hand, has all the push and
energy of American civilization.
With less than half the population of
its older territory, in wealth com
mercial activity, educational and
social institutions 1t is unmeasurably
ahead, and fully abreast of the most
progressive portions of the Union
Why, then should Arizona be merged
with its slow-paced neighbor, with
which she has scarcely anything in
common. No wonder that her people
protest against such an act of in
Justice. They are willing to wait for
many years for admission as a state.
rather than come in under such cir
cumstances, knowing that the shadow
OF the Mexican community, 300, 900
against their 125, 900, would to a great
extent blight their energies. And
yet bill is being pushed through
congress to join these socially dis
tinct territories in one state, not onIy
without their united consent, bnt in
spite of the vigorous protest of Ari-
Zona.
The plan to join Oklahoma and
Indian Territory is not on par with
the other proposed joint statehood.
The people of those two territories
are willing to be thus united. Okla
homa was carved out of Indian Terri
tory in the first place. 1t is simply
reverting back to its old political
status.
We hope the outrage upon Ari-
zona's integrity will not be consum
mated. 1t is simply due to political
and party exigencies of the eastern
states. The control of the senate is
slipping from the east to the west.
-Four new states would mean eight
new senators, and at least four con-
gressmen. But no question of parti-
san or political nature should stand
in the way of pursuing the straight
path of right, With Arizona dissent
ing, the forcing of the joint state
would be an outrage unparalleled.
1t is hoped the Foraker amendment,
providing that before going into
effect the question be referred to the
people of the two territories, and a
failure of either to ratify the provis-
ions of the bill to amount to defeat
of the proposed measure, will prevail.
