Catarrh Season

At the first warning Of catanh one
Should begin using Hyomei. The
disease is very common at this season
Of the year, but few days trealmen
will often prevent a serious and long
continued case Of catarrh.
If the breath IS catarrhal and often,
Sive, if there is irritation in the throat
or dropping at the back Of the throat,
begin the use Of Hyomei at once.
You run no risk in paying Hooper
Dug Co Sl.OO for a Hyomei outfit.
With which they give their personal
guarantee that if the remedy does not
afford relief, your money will be re.
funded at once, making it the most
economical cure for catarrh as well
as the only one that is sold under a
guarantee.

THe eUsINEss oUrLook.

The usual output of business fore casts and predictions incidental to the starting of new year is in evidence now.
 What has 1907 in store for the American people?
 Will the present condition of gener- al prosperity continue or does the na- tionai horoscope give warning Of ap- praachirg hard times 2"
 Such questions always crop out as we make the annual turn into a new year. There appears to be much less than the usual discussion of the sub iect these early 5S-= e 1907. but there Is enough of such discussion tc attract public attention.
 The most noticeable forecast of a gloomy kind comes from Stuyvesani Fish. for many years president of tbe Illinois Central railroad system and one of the conspicuous financial flp. ures of New York Mir. Fish was oust ed from his railway position by the coIossus of railway magnates, E. H Hartman That jolt probably ac counts for Mir. Fish's pessimism and for his general conclusion that "a
Bisbee daily review., 1907-01-12

great industrial crisis is due and there are many indications that it is i'm minent"
 Simultaneously with the appearance of Mir. Fish's porten'ous forecast we have an expression on the same sub ject. but dismetricaily opposite in con. clusion, from the only American rail way magnate who is recognized as a 'foeman worthy of the steel" of Mir. Hartman. This other colossus of railways is George J. Gould, the chief competitor of Hartman in the con. test for supremacy in American rail way affairs.
 Mir. Gould says: -The business con. ditions of the country look very en- courhging and the immense volume of business done by the railroads dur ing 1906 will not only be equaled. in my opinion, but surpassed during the present year" And he directly contro yerts MT. Fish by saying. There is no industrial crisis imminent, and while the market has declined recent ly, it is my belief that it is tempo rary and healthful reaction"
 At the present time there does mol appear to be a cloud in the financial sky, says the Herald. If there are any such indications as MT. Fish pro fesses to see they are too far away tc be discernible. On the contrary. al conditions are prese to inspire con fidence in an indefinite continuance oi the good times"-the general pros perity that the American people have enjoyed in recent years.
 The elements of prosperity are ev. en more prominently noticeable now than they were at the beginning Of last year. Wages average higher now than they ever did before. the demand for labor is generally in excess of the supply and every line of industry is humming to the limit of its capacity. Agricultural products are bolntiful, the financial system of the nation is as solid as Gibraltar and there is no apparent cause for pessimism in sight.

ARIZONA PRESS ASSOCIATION.

About the only Arizona association that did not meet last fall during the territorial fair at Phoenix was the Arizona Press association. This as sociation held its last session some thing over a year ago, when J. M Nc Times, was elected as president There are now published in this terri 'ory more than fifty newspapers oi
 arious kinds, dailies and weeklies S1d the organization of the newspaper
 publishers and editors should be kept up; certainly the interests of the profession are of sufficient importance to demand an active press associa- tion.
 There are several matters which de- mand the attention of the newspaper men of Arizona and one of them, of great importance, is a desired change in the law which renders newspapers liable for damages on account of li- beleus publications. We believe that every newspaper in tle land should be held to strict accon. inability for its conduct and if it willfmly libels a citizen it should be compelled to make reparation, but on the other hand we believe that when a newspaper is hauled into court on a libel or dam age suit and proves the truth of thei matter published and complained of that it's verdict should be for counter damages against the party instituting the proceedings. This paper had a Eery unpleasant experience during the past year in court and while we got out of the temple of justice with cleared skirts, it was at an expense of several hundred dollars paid to law yers and to cover other items of ex- pense. We feel that just law would give us recourse for sufficient to make us whole in pocket.
 Mir. McCullom, the president of the Arizona Press association, Is not now connected with any paper, but we would suggest that he call meeting of the association for some time dur ing the legislative session at Phoenix.
 If such a call is made there is hard ly a paper in Arizona that cannot af- ford to send a representative.

PURE FOOD INSPECTORS.

A Washington dispatch says that un. der the pure foo dlaw. which became esective the first of the year, the de. partment of agriculture has sent out inspectors and others to buy articles .cf food and have them tested. IT found impure or not properly labeled, proceedings will be Immediately in- stituted against the manufacturer and seller. Under the law the department can buy any article anywhere for that purpose.
 It is reported on good authority that several of the special agents of the de- partmeDt of agriculture are now in Ari- ona. Phoenix Is the first town being visited. So far there have been no arrests in this territory for violation of the pure food law.

SALOON MEN CONTROL TUCSON COUNCIL.

It was made plain at the first meet
 ing of the new Tucson city council that the Royal Arch" or the saloon
 men of that city. will control the new
 city government and have things pret.
 ty much. as they desire for time at
 least. One of the last acts of the
 old city council in Tucson was to in-
 crease the saloon license from S600
 per year to 5000 per year and it looks
 now very much like the first act of
 the new council will be to reduce the | saloon license which will be satisfac-
 tory to the saloon men, notwithstand- l ing the fact that the republican mem bers, composing the majority of the | present council, were elected on g | platform declaring that they were in ! favor of high license When this po- liical platform was written by the republicans the saloon license was $e00 per annum and no other con struction could be placed on it than that if the republican members were elected they would raise the license.
 After the election the old council passed the ordinance increasing the liquor license in accordance with the expression of the voters for high u- cense.
 But now it seems that the declara- ton of the republicans in favor of high license in Tucson was only made for the purpose of tr1clSing the people and that they had no intention of standing for high license and Mayor Slack appointed Adolph Bail, whis- ky dealer, as chairman of the license committee, who in turn announced that he would at once call his com n,ittSe together for the purpose of re- the question of license rates, declaring that the work of the old council should not stand if he could prevent it
 All the newspapers in Tucson are fsyoring the high license as fixed by Eac old board and when the press is on any proposition it can 5e safely guessed that it is giving ex- paession to the public sentiment.
 Should the saloon men dominate ! Ire present Tucson city council it may be predl>.eo that they will not don ins .e the next one.
 nder Mayor Manning's excellent administration in Tucson that city was greatly improved in it's condition for morality; the gambling houses were closed and many disreputable dives were suppressed and these ac- complishments were applauded by the citizens of the place.
 The saloon men are apparently in the saddle now in Tucson. but it will not be for long.

ELECTION CONTEST SHOULD RESULT IN GREATER CARE.

While this paper believes that the election contest instituted by George Hardiker and c. A. Overlook, in an eff fort to have thrown out of the count one of the voting districts in Douglas, was decided by Judge Doan as it should have been, on the side of jus tice, at the same time We recognize that those who had charge of the cleo ton in district in that city, the one complained of, were several times in violation of the strict letter of the law during the time the vote counting was going on.
 We believe that in all matters per taining to the sacred right of the election franchise the strict letter of the law should be followed and thsl the greatest care should be taken to guard the interests of all parties in- terested in an election, and the en- tire voting population is, or should be. interested.
 In the contest case tried in Tomb stone it was shown that in several in stances the law was not strictly fol lowed by the election board. The fact that the contest was instituted, result ing in heavy costs and inconvenience to a number who were called as wit nesses, should result in more care in the future in Douglas and other pre- cincts in the county in the duty of conducting elections by those charged with that responsibility.
 While it would be great outrage on the public to deprive an innocent candidate of an office to which he had been elected because of the fail ure of some election officer to per. form his duty, and this will never be done, still all have a right to expect that elections shall be conducted in strict conformity with the law.
 There was no evidence in the con test case that there had been any fraud attempted, but evidence was not lacking to show that there had been irregularity on the part of the cleo ton board, but these irregularities were not of a nature which should warrant an attempt to deprive a man of an office to which he had been fairly elected.

Senator Foraker shows no sign of weakening on his proposition to ad- minister to President Roosevelt a re- buke because of his action in dis charging the negro soldiers of the Twenty-ffth infantry because of the Brownsville murders. While the ac- tioD of the president is not without defenders there seems to be good majority sentiment in the senate flaw orable to making declaration that he acted without proper authority.
