 Tt was learned also that if the aI- legations should prove to be true. viz orous prosecution of the guilty parties Will be begun.
 Tt is realized by mining men that statements made by so prominent an engineer as Mir. Hammond that Yava- pal county has 'salted' mines, might easily work considerable damage to the mining interests of this county. and for this reason the officials have determined to sift the matter to the bottom.

PHOENIX MAN FOR

M. F. larkin, Once a Resident of This City, a Probable Candidate of the Prohibition Party.

Matt Larkin, a pioneer resident of Phoenix and agent of Wells Fargo & Co. in this town twenty-five or thirty years ago. is standing in the shadow Of the Pennsylvania statehouse, and a lot of his friends of the prohibition persuasion affect to believe that he has d good chance to pass through the door and take his seat in the executive chair. Irrespective of any prejudice of political nature. either for or against Mr. Larkin. there are still a lot of old timers here who would be pleased to see him realize his ambitions among them lot of the boys who still like their toddy MT Larkin's political horoscope is cast by the Scranton (Pa) Times of February F. in the following edi- toriaI:

This county could well be proud of such an cstmable candidate for the office in question as MT.

Silas Swallow when he was d candidate for governor MT Larkin would carry his ticket locally by big majority.

Yavapai Wants to Know the Identity
 of Her Alleged Mine salters.

Not long ago John Hays Hammond. in a speech in Brooklyn. made some observations to the effect that he had recently been the victim of a mine salting episode in a certain Arizona county. The Republican printed the story. but being jealous of the good name of a sister county, the story was not located in any particular county. Eastern journals. however. were not so thoughtful and the pews eventually reached Arizona that Yavapai was the county harboring the alleged miscre- ants. District Attorney H. D. Ross of Yavapai. having acquired that fact, now proposes to bring the offenders to justice, or silence MT. Hammond,

SITUATION
IS BETTER
IN MEXICO

III Paso, Tex. Nov. t4.-Reports
from the City OF Mexico today indi-
cate that the anti-American feeling Is
gradually Quieting down. Sunday
passed without any outbreaks of any
kind, and even the state of Jalisco,
where the feeling against the Amer
leans is particularly bitter, the Sun
day crowds made no demonstrations,
according to today's advices.
In Mexico City conditions are re-
ported practically normal today, al
though federal troops still are held
within call to stop any outbreak that
may occur.
In the American quarters of both
Mexico City and Guadalajara, every
thing is quiet. Americans, for the
most part remained indoors yester-
day, and houses were closed and bar
red. Crowds were not permitted to
gather in the streets in the American
section, and the district was patrolled
by troops.

MATTERS
ARE QUIET
MOST OF THE CANDIDATES WILL
BE CHOSEN WITHOUT OPPOsI.
TTON-INTEREST IN THE
STREET DEPARTMENT.

There is very little doing in the way
of political talk and the indications
are that the whole city ticket will he
elected without opposition. Most of
the nominees are present aldermea
but some good new material has
been added and the general opinion
is that the new council will be
strengthened all around. Lach-
mund for mayor got both the Repub-
lican and Democratic nominations
and IL there are no conetsts, thece
win not be half the vote cast at the
election that was out at the primary
where there We're contests. The gem
eial sentiment is that the council
did a great deal of work the pas,
year. and that its services are not
fully appreciated.
The strong statement published
by Alderman Stolz has aroused a
great deal of interest and much dis
cussion over matters connected with
the street department. One of the
charges made is in substance that In
spector Jefferson, who was employed
at $5 per day in connection with the
Capital street improvement, rejected
a carload of cement as not up %
specifications and that he was then
fired of the job or resigned and AL.
employed, but the cement
was used on some other street. The
other members of the street commit
tee with Mr.. Stolz are Gus Hucke-
stein and Ed. Sauter and they say
they know nothing about It, They
say the property owners employed
Mr.. Jefferson and dismissed him and
hired Mr.. Southwick, and they do
net know where the cement was
used.

SURELY BREAKS
UP A BAD COLD

1t is a positive fact that dose of
Pape's Cold Compound taken every
two hours Until three consecutive
doses are taken will cure grippe or
break up the most severe cold,
either in the head, chest, back stom-
ach or limbs.
You distinctly feel the cold break
ing and all the disagreeable grippe
symptoms leaving after the very
first dose. It promptly ends the
most miserable headache, neuralgia,
dullness, head and nose stuffed up,
feverishness, sneezing sore throat,
running at the nose, mucous catarr-
hal discharges, soreness, stiffness
and rheumatic twlnges.
Pape's Cold Compound is the re-
suit of three years research at a
cost of more than fifty thousand dol
lars and contains no qulnine, which
we have concluslyely demonstrated
is not effective in the treatment of
colds or grippe.
Take this harmless compound as
directed, with the knowledge that
there is no other medicine made any
where else in the world, which will
cure your cold or end grippe misery
as promptly and without any other
assistance or bad after-effects as a
25-cent package OF Pape's Cold Com
pound which any druggist in the
world can supply.
