Nerves Shattered:
Heart Irregular

Mrs. James Is. Blackburn OF
Xenia, Ohio, says that nothing
equals DIR. A. w. Chase's Nerve
Pills in such troubles.
Some medicines affect the heart alone,
some the stomach, some the head. DR..
A. w. Chase's Nerve Pills by a happy
combination and a perfect control over
the nervous system that regulates all
the organs of the body affects them all,
and puts them in perfect working order.
Mrs. Blackburn found this to be true,
and has no hesitancy in telling others
Of the splendid results obtained. In
fact, says she considers it her duty to
do so. She says: Il was troubled with
severe nervousness, sleeplessness, indi-
gestion and heart trouble. 1 heard of
DR.. A. w. Chase's Nerve Pills and
thought would try them. I got box,
and 1 am pleased to say they are just
what / needed-my nerves are again
steady and strong-I sleep well-am not
troubled with indigestion-the action of
the heart is regular and I feel vigorous
and strong in every way. I consider
the medicine a splendid nerve and gen.

$4,000 or $4,000. However,
Mr.. Lasher states that his COM
panv would not stand all OF the
expense Of a bridge, as it would
then be cheaper for him to ship
the freight from another
point, but he prefers Winslow
as the distance is about 20 miles
shorter than any other point
al Ong the line of the Santa Fe.
In view of the fact that this
will be a permanent affair, the
citizens of WinsloW should get
busy at once and see that the
bridge is placed across the Colo
RADIO, in that event the volume
of business done here would be
increased considerable.
The road will go within a few
miles of Keams Canyon, and
the people residing there would
be sure of a good wagon road
to the railroad. That would al
so make more business for Win
slow.
This is one of the best oppor-
tunities this town has ever had
for the advancement of it's com
mercial welfare, and while it is
within our grasp, we should not
let it slip out and be gone for
ever by procratination. Get
busy Immediately.

WINSLOW
TO BE SHIP
PING POINT
Autos to Haul Ore
from Utah Pla-
Ger Fields

F. H. Lasher, the consulting
engineer and general manager of
the Nugget Canyon Placer and
Dredging Company, of Oregon
and incorporated under the laws
of this territory, returned We'd
nesday evening from a 400 mile
trip to the San Juan River in the
southeastern part of Utah. The
object of this trip was to look
over the country between here
and there and pick out, a route
for a wagon road to the placer
fields belonging to the above
company, and which they are
going to work on Immediately.
The company is a big syndicate
with an unlimited amount of
capital behind it, and Senator
w. A. Clark is one of it's heavi-
est hackers. The company has
about l, 800 acres of placer lands
on the San Juan river and will
eXpend a quarter OF a million
dollars in operating machinery
and also about $4,000 on the
road between Winslow and the
company's fields, a distance OF
200 miles. A dredge will be put
in capable of excavat1ng $500
yards per day. When running in
full operation about 60 men will
be employed besides nearly 100
Navajo Indians The first ship
ment of freight will consist of
from - to 15 car loads of ma
chinery and there will continue
to be a great amount OF business
going back and forth, besides the
ore to be hauled to the railroad.
AS soon as things are in opera
ton two or three big automo-
biles, capable of hauling two or
three tons of freight will be put
on the road.
Now, Winslow will realize
more than ever the necessity of
having a bridge over the Colo
RADIO River at this point. Mr..
Lasher states that his company
will stand half the expense OF a
bridge if the people of Winslow
and the county will put up the
other half. He estimates that
a good bridge could be built for

A WORTHY VETERAN RECOGNIZED.

A concurrent resolution las been
adopted by the Pennsylvania Legisla-
ture to give Factory Inspector John c.
Denaley the rank of Captain. The reso-
luton recites that Delaney was a Ser
geant in Co. I, 107th Pa, a magnificent
fighting regiment. He enlisted March
5, 1862, as a private soldier when only
IA years of age, and before the close of
his first year was seriously wounded at
Antietam. He rose to the rank of Ser
geant, and as his company had no COM
missioned officers he was placed in COM
mand, and subsequently Co. d, which
was also bereft of officers, was added to
II, and he commanded them for several
months until the surrender at Apo
mattox and the muster-out of the regi-
ment, July 10, 1865. He was promoted
to First Lieutenant and promised a Cap
taincy, which he had well earned, but
the regiment was mustered out without
his receiving this grade. 1t is claimed
for him that he was the youngest mus
ket carrier, the youngest company COM
mander and the youngest Medal of
Honor man in the Union army. Past
Commander-in-Ch Chief Stewart, who was
familiar with his career, interested him.

The National tribune., 1907-05-02
A MEAN FLING.

The Boston Herald, which has rarely
had a good word for the veterans,
makes a hateful fling at Congress:
"On the other hand 1t pauperiZed the
pension list by voting pensions to every
body who was mustered in for the war,
regardless of their services, deserts or
needs-going as far as possible to make
patriotism lost virtue and put defense
of ones country on a monetary basis"
This is as untrue as it is unjust and
ungenerous. The passage of the Nc
Cumber act no more pauperized the
veterans nor degenerated their patriot
ism than the passage of similar laws
did the men who served in the Revolu-
ton. in the War of 1912 and the Mexi-
can War. Like those earlier patriots
the men who went into the army in re-
Spouse to Lincoln's call had no thought
Of pensions or other emoluments. II
was not until AZ years after the war
when all those gallant young fellows
were old and broken men, that Con.
gress, in a spirit Of justice and generosi-
ty, gave them recognition in the shape
of a service pension. This is the un-
broken custom of the Government since
its foundation, and it is a stimulus rath.
er to patriotism in showing to the rising
generation how the men who were true
to their country in its time Of need are
remembered and cared for In their old
age.

Capt. Winslow has been anxious to have
command of the Kearsarge ever since
she was launched. His wife acted as

flying from the fighting top when the
hull slid into the water. Capt. winslow

People who imagine that the plain

stamina since the civil war are liable to
make a troublesome mistake. For e1-
ample, two heavily armed burglars en-
tered the house of Christian Wirth, of
St. Clair County, Mich, but they awak-
ened Mr.. Wirth, who promptly covered
them with shotgun. Their weapons
were no match for this. or, rather, his
quickness Of motion gave him the drop
on them. He held them motionless with
their hands above their heads until his
wife could get up and dress, when she
took the gun to give him an opportunity
to dress. She seems to be made Of quite
as good stuff as he, and after they were
both clothed they put the burglars in

PENNSYLVANIA PENSIONS.

The House of Representatives of
Pennsylvania is considering favorably
the pension bill to give ali soldiers, sail
ors and marines of the civil war who
enlisted from Pennsylvania and are now
residents Of the State pension. Those
who served one year will get IS 9
month; those who served two years
$3.50, ard those who served longer than
that time $40. 1t Is provided that not
only must the applicant have lived in
the State a year before applying, but
must have lived in the State year con-
tinuously before every pension payment
This is to restrict the pension to bona
fide residents of the State. There is an
appropriation Of S5.754.s75 for carrying
out the bill for two years. The bill has
already past the Senate.
