ETY. Of faults, will not fail in the flu
ture "to make the government square
with the eternal principles of the Ton
Commandments and the Declaration
of independence"
AS to the railroads, the governor says
that franchises and privileges have
been thrown around altogether too
carelessly in the past and that there
is not a railroad in the state but whose
right to conduct business m from
the state and that consequently the
state must control the railroads. He
says government must treat every
question with memorable fairness and
patient deliberation in ascertaining
truth, but that no mai shall have
greater advantage than any other.
Bryan's Candidacy Announced.
What is regarded as an official an
houncement of the intention of Will
liam J.. Bryan to be a candidate for
the presidential nomination next year
was made recently by Harry II. Wal
ker of the New York Progressive
league, who for the past eight years
has been looked upon is the close per-
sonal representative of Bryan. In n
prepared statement MI. Walker says:
''The situation has developed sufficient
ly to make safe these predictions: For
mer Governor David Il. Francis Of
Missouri will be chairman of the Dem
ocratic national convention. Augustus
Thomas of New York will present Mr..
Bryan's name to the convention, and
Mr.. Bryan will be nominated by ac-
clamation. Timothy D. Sullivan of
New York will be chairman of the
Democratic national committee" 1t
is expected hat MI. Bryan will make
an extensive speechmaking tour
through the east the coming fall.
Judge Parker Never Again.
Judge Alton B. Parker Of New York,
the last Democratic candidate for
president, has denied unrcservedly
newspaper reports to the effect that he
is seeking another nomination. He
says he does not desire ever again to
hold public office, but that he proposes

that benefit the whole community" He
said their riches are seldom spent in
extravaganza, but are put back into
new industries to produce more wealth
and give employment to more men.
He paid a high tribute to labor unions
and defended the Union Labor party
OF San Francisco, pointing out that It
was through a district attorney elected
on the same ticket with Schmitz who
was responsible for putting the former
mayor into prison and who is pursuing
wealthy bribers responsible for the de-
bauchery in that city. Mr.. Hearst
thought there were no disputes be-
tween capital and labor which could
not be settled by arbitration.
Mr.. Gompers devoted his speech
largely to a protest against the dis
elimination of the courts adverse to
labor unions. He intimated that if this
power were used to deprive him of
his constitutional and personal rights
he would assert the rights regardless
Of consequences and said it would be
better for the country if labor were
not forced by this policy to extreme
measures.
Abandons Joint Statehood.
Secretary Of the Interior Garfield
told the newspaper men at Oyster Bay
that the administration had abandoned
its effort to bring New Mexico and
Arizona into the Union as one state.
He said the president was disposed to
accept the verdict of the people Of the
two territories in favor of separate
statehood. This announcement fol-
lows Garfield's recent visit to the ter
ritories, and it is presumed that the
presidents changed attitude is due to
Garfield's report. 1t is said that the
| citizens of Arizona are unwilling to
accept joint statehood; that they
would rather stay out Of the Union
than go in tied in the same sheaf
| with New Mexico.
Burton to Fight Johnson
Congressman Theodore Z. Burton of
Cleveland, o., who for six terms has

nomination Mr.. Burton stipulated that
there should be no affiliation with any
public service corporation and that
there be no organized opposition to him
within his party. Burton said he had
adopted this course upon the advice
Of Secretary Taft, Secretary Garfield
and the president.

A Rate Law Test Case.
That state control of the interstate
railroads has ceased by virtue Of the
Hepburn rate law is the broad ground
Of an appeal to the federal courts now
made by the Missouri Pacific railroad
from a writ issued by the supreme
court of Kansas. The writ was issued
in favor of the Larrabee Milling COM
pany Of Stafford, Kan, to compel the
Missouri Pacific to continue the prac-
tice of delivering cars to the mills
over the Santa Ie tracks. which cross
at that point, at the old rate of So a

Of the mills business was interstate.

William r. Hearst, the millionaire
newspaper editor, and Samuel Com

Grafton of Labor, were the principal
speakers at the jamestown exposition
on Labor day, and a vast throng of
people was there assembled from all
parts of the country. Mr.. Hearst,

THE truth ABOUT DIGESTION

Did it eve occur to you that the digestive apparatus of the four different
classes of farm animals are entirely different and therefore naturally require
different treatment and different feeding. It stands to reasont that what is
good for a hog may be bad for a horse, and what is good for a fowl may be
rad for a cow. For example, clam shells and grs Ire good for fowls, but
would be very bad for cows. Science has proven that different medicines and
different foods act differently o n different animals. Therefore it stands to
reason that medicinal Stock Tonics Must be prepared according to the
class of animals for which they are intended. That is just why Gold Coin
Stock Toncs are sc much better than ordinary stocks foods. Gold Coin

 During the absence from home of MT. and Mrs. Merrick last evening between and o clock flames were discovered breaking from the second story win dows. An alarm was turned in, but the flames made such rapid headway that the services of the department were of little avail, exceptin the protection of adjoining property.

THE FALLS IN CATARACT CANYON TO BE HARNEssED BY A
 BIG CORPORATION.
TO FURNISH POWER AND LIGHT FOR TOWNS OF MoHAvE AND
 YAvAPAI COUNTIES.
Three Quarters of Million Will Be Spent on This Great Enterprise Work To Be Commenced at once-No Trouble to Finance Scheme.

PRESCOTT, December w NJ
 Nellis of Mayer took over, under bond yesterday, from w. I. Johnson the til, to the Cataract canyon water rights located in Cataract canyon, about six weight miles north of Seligman. The execution of the bond was the begin. ming of deal to finance large cor, poration, which will install an electric generating plant, capable of furnishing electrical power to the mines and fur nishing light to the industrial centers of the counties of Yavapai and Mo have
 ''I estimate that it will cost at least s750,000 to install plant and trans mission lines to the towns and cities of Yavapai and Mohave countless" said MT. Nellis to a newspaper man yes terday. "Thc main transmission line will be built either through Seligman or Ash Fork. A conservative estimate places the water flow of Cataract can yon at 5000 miners inches. The To- cations cover three falls, one of. which is l60 feet in height. -.
 "I will be on the ground with an engineer corps to start the preliminary surveys about December l2. Active work of grading for the installa tion of machinery, the building ot Is and houses will be commenced early n Jan uary''
 Asked if he did not anticipate trou- ble in financing. such large p>oposi- tion on account of the disturbed eoadi. tions of the eastern money markets, Mir. Nellis said: "The money market con ditions will not interfere in any way with the carrying out of the project. Eminent engineers have made careful estimates of a number of water sources with a view of installing a similar plant to furnish electrical power. in this county and Mohave in the last two years. Such power will find a ready sale on account of the high price of oil and other fuels. Provided the water volume of Cataract canyon is sufficient to develop the reported power, do not hesitate to state that it's falls will be harnessed with electrical ma chinery before the close of the year 1908. j."
 MT Ncllis has sold a number of min ing properties in this county during the last two years, and is very enthu- siastc over this, his latest project.
