Not Men, But the Exposition.

10 Tue TtutCtiuS CieiAcu u bo"-
isiana it must be quite apparent
that the biggest subject before the
people of the State to-day is the
proposed Panama Exposition. If
the man who can make "two blades
of grass grow where only one grew
before" is a public benefactor,
what shall be said of an enterprise
that proposes to build homes, and
to establish colonies on lands that
have never yet grown a single
blade of grass? And yet, that is
what the Exposition will do with
the eight millions of acres of wet
meadow lands that have produced
principally mosquitoes and bull
frogs.
There are those who will chal-
lange this assertion and demand
the presentation of proof in sup
port of its correctness. While 1t
is impossible, of course, to prove
that any particular thing is going,
in the future, to bring about par
ticular result, yet man as a ration
al being has discovered that like
causes generally produce like re-
suits, the conditions in each case
being similar. Applying that rule
We find that the Cotton Centennial
Exposition held, in New Orleans
in 1884, which was an infant CON-
pared to the proposed Panama
Exposition, gave the inspiration
to Cary, Watkins and host of
others which resulted in the de-
velopment of the rice and lumber
industries to their present enor-
nous proportions. 1t brought the
great yellow pine forests which
abound throughout Louisiana,
Mississippi and Alabama, to the
attention of the capitalist, thereby
bringing Louisiana up to the Sec
ond place among the lumber pro-
ducing States of this Union.
That the great impetus given to
these and other important indus
tries finds its origin and inspira-
ton in the little Exposition held
away back in 1884, there can be
no doubt; for Mr.. Cary has said
that the news that the Cotton Ex-
position was to be held in New
Orleans decided him to favor Lou
isiana after he had made up bis
mind to locate in Texas. These
things being conceded, it is impos-
sible for the candid reader to reach
any conclusion, save that the effec,

citizen-a duty imposed alike by

ALE MY PIMPLEs GONE
Girl Tells How Blotchy Skin Was
CIeansed by Simple Wash.

Il swas ashamed of my face" writes
Miss Minnie Pickard of Altamahaw,
n. c. 1T was all full of pimples and
scars, but after using d. ID. ID. Pre-
scription 1 can say now there is no
sign of that Eczema, and that was three
years ago.
ID. ID. D. has become so famous as
cure and instant relief in Eczema
and all other serious skin diseases, that
it's value is sometimes overlooked in
clearing up rash, pimples, blackheads,
and all other minor forms of skin i'm
purities.
The fact is, that while d. D. d. is so
penetrating that it strikes to the very
root of Eczema or any other serious
trouble, the soothing Oil of Winter
green, Thymol and other ingredients
are so carefully compounded there is
no wash for the skin made that can
compare with this great household
remedy for every kind of skin trouble
ID. ID. d. is pleasant to use, perfect
ly harmless to the most delicate skin,
and absolutely reliable. A 20 cent bot
tie will give you positive proof of the
wonderful effectiveness of this great
remedy.

the Federal BuiIding-Test
Pits to Be Dug.

Five test pits, each ten feet deep.
are to be dug upon the site of the
federal building and soil samples
from the bottom of each sent to
Washington. Why soil from depth
of ten feet is wanted is not quite
clear, since the floor of the base
ment is to be only six feet below
the surface
At any rate Postmaster McClin-
took, custodian of the building site,
yesterday received orders from Wash
ington to have five ten-foot holes
dug The postmaster got busy i'm
pediafeiy and let a. contract to Gin
ton Lauver for the digging Of the
holes. Mr.. Lauver will have his men
at work this morning and since the
holes do not have to be square, round
or of any particular shape. the con-
tract should be carried out in short
order.
Ten feet below the surface the soil
in that part of, the city is gravelly.
At least is was gravel in the bot
toms OF the two excavations dug for
the Y. NJ. c. A. building. one Of
which was subsequently filled. 1t
is customary to make sSil tests be-

eminent building. This is done in
order that contractors may know

TUCSON LOBBYIST
DRACHMAA'S ACTIVITIES
Two Propositions Said to Have Been
Quietly Submitted.

Col. Nose Drachman Of Tucson
who has been in the city since Sum
day has spent the greater part of his
time hanging about the convention
chamber and waylaying members in
the corridors but preferably in the
darker recesses of the stairway. 1t
began to be suspected as early as
Tuesday that Colonel Drachman had
established lobby but what the
purpose of it was could not be learn
ed Members whom he had been
seen to approach replied to inquiries
that the communications we've priv
LEGGED.
But it was learned yesterday that
Colonel Drachman was trying to Sc
cure clause in the constitution
compelling the use of Arbuckle's cof-
fee within the boundaries of the new
state. The form of the proposition
which Colonel Drachman had pre-
pared was objected to by some of
the members to whom he presented
it, as violative of the constitution of
the United States. 1t was pointed
out to him that many people did not
use coffee at all and it would per-
haps be impossible to compel them
by any constitutional provision to
cultivate the coffee habit
Colonel Drachman replied that that
was not the purpose aimed at in his
proposition and his attention having
been called to that possible interpret
alton of it, he agreed to rewrite it
so that the use of any other than
Arbuckle's. coffee would be prohibit
ed in Arizona. The colonel was led
to believe that in it's amended form
the proposition would be favorably
considered.
But that is not all he wants. He
has another proposition providing for
the location in perpetuity of the
Southern Pacific round-house and
shops at Tucson, whence there have
been ill founded rumOrs that the COM
pany has contemplated their removal
since the late fire.

BOOSTING FOR THE
FRISCO EXPOSITION
General Sampson Honorary Vice Pres
ident Getting Busy.

General A. ]. Sampson, as many
honorary vice president of the Pana-
ma Pacific International Exposition
to be held in San Francisco. The gem
eral, however, is not content to wear
mere honorary titles without a little
activity demonstrating that they are
fittingly bestowed. He is therefore
interesting himself in creating senti-
ment favorable to the exposition and
is finding no trouble in doing SO in
these parts, for Arizona recognizes
itself as of the Pacific coast in any
controversy between the west and the
east
The general has secured the follow
ing letter which speaks for itself and
which he will use to the best advan-
tage:

In 1888, the immense contracting firm

Tench to pay of all his obligations,
but the shock of the failure broke
him In health and his death occurred
shortly afterward. To his son he left
the legacy of debt.
Young Tench did not shirk his duty.
For 20 years he has worked hard and
spent nothing that he might clear his
fathers name. He became the junior
