If your Stomach, Heart or Kidneys are weak, try at least, a few doses only
 of Dr. 6noop's Restorative. In five or ten days only the result will sur prise you. A few cents will cover the
 cost. And here is why help comes so quickly. Dr. Shoop docsn't drug the Stomach, nor stimulate the Heart or Kidneys. Dr. Shoop's Restorative goes directly to the weak and failing nerves. Each organ has it's own controlling nerve. When this nerve fails the de- pending organs must of necessity fal- ter. This plain, yet vital truth, clearly tells why Dr. Shoop's Restorative is so universally successful. Its success IS leading druggists everywhere to give it universal preference. A test will surely tell. Sold by Palace Pharmacy.

Fell Into a well.

simon Ackel was holding the little Syear-old granddaughter of J. M Santa Cruz over well, in playful mood Saturday and, losing his balance, both he and the child dropped to the bottom of the well, says the Florence Blade. He had sufficient presence of mind to hold the little girl hard against his chest, and keep his own body upright, so as to strikethe water feet foremost. As a result, he landed in the water right side up and struck the bottom lightly, as there was about five feet of water in the well. Neither the man nor the child was even slightly injured, but
 both had good scare and chilly bath.

Government Gets Canals.

The recent flood in Salt river has somewhat hastened the absorption of the south side canal system by the government. As those who have follow. ed events are aware, an agreement to purchase was made by the government with the Consolidated Canal company some time ago. The late flood has wash ed away the heading and upper part of the Utah canal, and the Utah com pany is now ready to enter into sim liar negotiations; in fact, has done so by the action of the directors at meet ing held Monday in Mesa. The Utah management has been in conference with Engineer Hill frequently of late, and yesterday the terms of an agree ment were ratified by the canal man agement.

TAKES EXCEPTION TO BUcHTEL's
INSULT TO COLORADO WOMEN

LOS ANGELES, July 21.-[Editor
Herald: notice that a local paper
quotes Governor Buchtel of Colorado to
the effect that 1t is "only the lowest
elements of the female sex that make
use of the privilege of voting" and
that decent, intelligent women will
not vote unless they are dubbed to
the polls" Inasmuch as so per cent
of the women of Colorado register and
about 70 per cent of them vote (ac-
cording to the Colorado secretary of
state) Mr.. BuchtePs remarks are
either an uncomplimentary reflection
upon the general average of woman
hood in Colorado or upon the dispo-
sitions of the men-are they the ones
who WELD the clubs? One scarcely
supposes that either the men or wom-
en- constituents of the theological gov
ernor will appreciate his remarks on
the voting in his state, If he has been
correctly quoted.
AS to the disorder of the "suf-
fragettes" l do not hold that that i'm
plies by any manner Of means that
these women will make inferior citi-
zens. Hundreds of women are i'm
prisoned, tortured, shot or hanged in
Russia nowadays because they do not
remain peaceably at home and leave af-
ment alone, and these are among the
noblest women Russia has. "Old John
Brown" was a disorderly sort Of per-
son; Garrison was mobbed by the citi-
zens Of Boston, just as some of the
Englishwomen have been mobbed by
the police, and Joan Of Arc, whom they
have been canonizing lately, committed
greater breaches of the peace than the
throwing of cobblestones through win
dows. While a half-million women in
this country live under conditions SO
wretched that their very existence is
used as an argument against political
! equality-it ought to be one of the
strongest arguments for it--and while
| 1000, 900 children are being deformed
and murdered in factories can't some
| lack of suavity be pSrdoned on the
part of those who object to that sort OF
thing, even If they are in the minority?
l fear that in the eyes of some anti
suffrage papers that would still main
tain the good Lord, good devil" attl-
tude and say with Brutus, "Then none
have 1 offended" while making the
most offensive assumptions-the only
really good suffrage worker is the dead
one. L. d. HARDING.

THE JOBBERS

IN w. BLANCHARD, secretary OF
X the good roads advisory CON-
a mittee, left some thoughts be-
hind him when he went on his vaca-
ton. In a remarkably lucid and In
forming interview printed in The Her
aid he accused the solid three super
visors of trying to siGestep ;he real
issue and dodge public indignation
when their spokesman, Eldridge, talks
of Informing the advisory commit
tee" in the matter of appointments to
the highway commission and waiting
for the committeeman to make recon-
mendations."
As Mr.. Blanchard pointed out in his
well-worded and convincing statement
to a representative of Los Angeles
Herald. 1t Is not in the province of the
members of the advisory committee to
make recommendations. If they had
made recommendations the supervisors
might-and probably would-haYe
claimed the advisory committeeman
were not respecting the terms Of the
resolution in which the position Of the
the sense Of this board of supervisors
to advise with the advisory committee
on all matters pertaining to the build
ing of the highways as advertised, and
conform to the resolution adopted by
the former board of supervisors, in so
far as the same does not run counter
to an honest discharge Of our powers
as supervisors"
Now, as Mr.. Blanchard pointed out,
the resolution of the former board to
which the present board pledged allie
| glance was as explicit as the resolu-
ton in which the pledge of allegiance
was renewed. There is no chance to
dodge either resolution. Neither can
be explained away. Neither can be
evaded.
The pledge was as follows: This
board of supervisors pledges itself, and
each and every member thereof pledges
himself, to take no action in the mat
ter of letting contracts for road I'M
provement, in making appointments to
positions connected with such road inn
provement, or in filing any vacancy
that may occur upon the Los Angeles
highway commission, unless the same
shall be approved by said advisory
committee"
Los Angeles is a magnificent city
with a fine civic reputation. Is it pos
sible the solid three supervisors do not
or cannot realize they are doing every
| +l,irgy in their mower to expose il TO
ridicule and contempt and bring odium
upon it by asserting their pledges to
the people were empty words, ana
nothing more, and bore no relation to
the ACTIONS of the supervisors
WHAT! WOULD THE SUPERYIS-
ORs HAVE THE WORLD BELIEVE
THEY ARE NOTHING MORE NOR
LESS THAN HIGH-GRADE CON
| MEN?

OUT ON PAROLE PLEADS FOR
INDETERMlNATE SENTENCE

BERKELEY, July 20.-[ Editor Her.
add: Much has been said and written
Of late on the subject of reforms, and
many Of our penologists and students
of penology have expressed them
selves quite freely, and in some cases
very intelligently, but the fact that our
laws remain the same as of older times
is disputed by no one.
Griffith ]. Griffith has been and is
yet Waging a war of reform in which
he is deeply and sincerely interested,
and [ am at a loss to know why the
people of California cannot see the
great and everlasting benefits which
such a measure as the indeterminate
sentence would establish for society.
Many people believe that in order to
sufficiently punish the convicted Of
fender he should serve all the time
in prison prescribed by the law and
the court, else his punishment Will
count for little, if anything at all, so
far as his reform" is concerned. This
is a sad mistake, and none can see the
real sadness Of such conclusions ex-
cept those who have passed through
the ordeal of trial and conviction In a
court of justice, condition much more
hard to bear than the average on
locker can understand.
For almost any crime the punish
ment endured while being tried In the
court and then dragged off to prison
in irons under the eyes of friend and
foe alike Ito say nothing of the shaved
head and face and the donning of the
stripes of degradation upon entering
the PRISON. is punishment enough, so
far as punishment" itself Is con-
cerned. This conclusion 1 have arrived
at after a living, practical experience
of all the conditions mentioned, but
until our people take deeper and
more sincere interest in the matter of
prison reforms it Is useless for those
of us who have paid so dearly for our
education along this line to try to be
a benefit to the society which he have
