FERNANDO RODRIGUEZ.
Hogales, Sonora's, Progressive Hard
 ware Dealer and Public Official.

Occupying commanding posi- ton in the commercial world, the subject of this sketch, MT. Fer nando Rodriguez has grown from boy in the line city, and by close attention to business and strict honesty and fair dealing he has made an honorable name and just reputation. He conducts a good hardware business, includ- ing, plumbing, gas fitting, etc., and carries a fine and we'll assort- ed stock fitted admirably to the requirements of the trade.
 Mir. Rodriguez is a very public spirited citizen, and his devotion to the welfare, of his town and improvement of conditions therein has so attracted the attention of his fellow citizens that at the last local election he was elevated to the important and responsible post of presidente of the municipality by tremendous majority over all other candidates. The position corresponds with that of mayor in an American town or city; but with more power, wider range oi duties and greater responsibility It combines all the various depart. ments of municipal activity, in- cluding street improvements, po' lice regulation, public school sys' tenn, etc. In the management ol all that complicated system MT Rodriguez has shown himself the right man in the right place.

MIRA MoRTE SARAToRluM.
ATemporary Home For InvaIids Where are Effected Remarkable Cures
 by Modern Methods.

Situated in a quiet little cove in the hills, free from winds and dust, in the northern part of the town, with commanding view of the Santa Rita mountains in the dis tance (whence the name "Moun- tain View") is located new sanitarium, established recently by Doctors A. L. Gustetter and H. w. Purdy, for treatment by new and approved methods of many chronic diseases and ail- ments, such as rheumatism, ner- vous prostration and other ner- vous disorders, dipsomania, etc.
 The treatment given is with little or no medicine, and consists great ly of complete rest, fresh air, diet and fresh pure milk for nourish- ment. The latter is supplied from thoroughbred Jersey cattle owned by the Sanatorium, and the rich milk they give is marked feature in the treatment.
 The treatment prescribed is a result of careful experimentation and research by some of the most eminent medical talent in America and it has proved a great success wherever adopted. The Mira Monte Sanatorium, which has been esta blished but recently reports already some remarkable cures.

LONG JOHN IN BIG TIMBER
Longs for Old Friends, but Likes New
Home

FRIEND MUNsoN: Enclosed find check
| for CENSOR; can't possibly do without
it. Ii comes every Saturday evening
or Sunday morning with its pages full
of news from home, just like big let
ter. We have been in Washington now
year last April, and the longer we
stay the better we likeit We thought
we would not like the winters on ac-
count Of rain. In Wisconsin or Dakota
we would rot call it rain, just mist.
and it is so calm and peaceful, 30 wind
or electrical storms, not even hail
storms, that is, on this side of the
mountains. My greatest surprise out
here was the roads and school buildings.
Even out in the country or rural dis
tricts you see big, fine buildings, more
like court houses than school buildings,
and the roads are graded and graveled
up until they equal the streets of some
cities, even through the heavy timbered
country. You can see the automobiles
most of year around.
Last winter we had about two weeks
of cold weather with about three inches
of snow, but the grass stayed just as
green as in June in Wisconsin; froze
thin ice three or four nights, and then
the people thought it was such cold
winter. This fall has been as fine and
as much sunshine as / ever experienced
anywhere. We had no killing frost
until the 9th of October, and that did
not hurt potatoes that were dug and
laying on the ground.
OF course we have friends in old Wis
consin that we never expect to find their
equal here or anywhere else, but we do
like Washington. Will now ring off.
Yours respectfully,
JNo. w. MILLS.

WE ENDORSE ALPHABETICALLY
The Season for Caring for Dumb Ami.
mails is Here

The following from the Galesville Re-
publican the CENSOR desires to adopt as
its own and hopes regulatioawill be en-
forced.
THE season Is on when the horse
blanket is too frequently not in sight.
Most drivers of horses are not wanting
in feeling. Some care for their horses
better than themselves, or at least see
that the horse is cared for before they
settle down to their comfort. There
are too many others who are unmind-
full Of the feelings of dumb brutes.
II is easy to discover what men have
a regard for horses and what men have
not, by taking look at the public
square on a winter day. Some men
never tie a team at the public square in
the Writer time; the 7 use TIE hotel or
livery stables. Others blanket their
horses carefully, while others, still.
throw the blankets on carelessly and in
few minutes they are off. Then there
is the fellow who comes to town, drives
up TO the square. ties his team and i'm
mediately hustles to the nearest saloon
for hot drink. His team usually stands
for hours in the biting wind that sweeps
across the square. Meanwhile the man
is comfortable. thank you.
Right here is where the authorities
should step in. A team should not be
permitted to stand unblanketed around
the square in the winter season. The
abuse should be stopped now early in
the season. II is a matter that the
mayor and the members of the city
council should consider as part of
their official business.

The consumer of the gin rickey,

him that, instead Of lime juice, 1t was

But no! There, in the glast. uncom-

Still, there was something wrong.
After taking two or three additional

Isn't there lemon Juice in this rick

The bartender realized that before
him was one who could not be bluffed.

worthy of remark. In these days Of
the costly show and spectacle, with
theaters that are palaces and opera

1t might be well for those who

is one who chews all things 80 long

80 bites to every mouthful OF food.
