' ttvfiiirttfH "- f1 , COCONINO SUN .3 &. 1 ALL A FOREST RESERVE. The San Francisco Mountains Reserve Solidfled The Government Now Controls All the Forest. The following special from C. C. Randolph, who i now in Washington, was published In Sunday' Republican: The Sail Francisco Mountain roerve of Arizona has been solidified. An agreement has been reached between the government, and and the Individual owners of the odd sections in the re serve by which the govei ntneut re covers Its title to all this land in lieu of other lands exchanged therefor. This completes a reserve of nearly two million acres and guarantees ade quate protection to the magnillcient forest and the conservation of the wa ters that feed the Verde and Salt rivers. The value of this action to the people of Suit river valley cannot he overesti mated. It not only will be of great benefit to their water system hut will give a great impetus to the water stor age movement ami will encourage the establishment of industries in the val ley that rely upon an adequate water supply for success. The creation of this reserve is due largely to the efforts of W. .1. Murphy, of l'liounix, who has spent many weeks here in the effort to unify conlliuting interests and prevail upon the secre tary of the interior to make the desired ruling. What looked like a hopeless task finally was straightened out today in a manner satisfactory to all con cerned and Secretary Hitchcock iillixed his signature to the agreement, there by putting an end to ail disputes over this vital question. Under this ruling Arizona's total forest reserve embraces nearly live million acres which is surpassed by but few reserves in the entire country. Secretary Hitchcock and Commissioner Hermann of the general laud otlice de serve the thanks of the people of the Salt river valley for their broad guage action in the matter. A Prominent Chicago Woman Speaks. Prof. Itoxa Tyler of Chicago, vice president Illinois Woman's Alliance, in speaking of Chamberlain's Cough Hemedy,says: "Isuffered with a severe cold this winter which threatened to run into pneumonia. I tried different remedies, but I seemed to grow worse and the medicine upset my stomach. A friend advised me to try Chamber lulu's Cough Remedy and I found it was pleasant to take and it relieved me at once. I am now entirely recov ered, saved a doctor's bill, time and suffering, and I will never be without this splendid medicine again. For sale at Pioneer Drug Store.

Gazette. Deep Mining In Arizona. The Los Angeles Herald recently published uu interview with un Ari zona mining man concerning deep min ing In Arizona a part of which Is here given: "The United Verde mine at.Terome, with shafts and drifts on It 100 feet deep, was offered for sale fourteen years ago without any buyer. At lust W. A. Clark, of Montana, took the property and after sinking to a depth of 300 feet he had ninety six feet of solid ore and at BOO feet it is reported that the ore body is 450 feet wide. Clark has refused $100,000,000 for tlifn mine. The Congress mine, at a depth of 150 feet, was considered us a fraud by no less a person than Diamond Joe, and now, at a depth of 300 feet, it is held at $3,000,000. The Fortuna mine, at 150 feet, was bought by Charles Lane for $140,000, now at a depth of 600 you could not buy it for $3,000,000. The King of Arizona was sold for but $30,000 when at a depth of 100, while today at a depth of 500 feet it is held at $1,000,000. The famous Copper Queen mine ut Illsbee, at a depth of 200 feet was about to be sold for debt. Now at 800 feet it has sufficient ore in sight to run 50 years and money cannot buy It The Crowned King mine was $23,000 in debt when down 1(15 feet. Now it cannot be purchased for less than $1,000,000. The Pierce mine was sold for $275,000 when a depth or 150 feet had been reached. It Is now pro ducing $150,000 annually, und Is not for sule. You hear men speak of the United Verde ledge. There Is no ledge there and there never was one. On the surface there was a large number of small strata, which led from the sur face to the deposit in the heart, of the mountain. These stringers were sent out merely to invite the prospector's pick. You hear of the ledge of the Veide variously estimated ut from 250 to 500 feet In width. There is. us a matter of fact, no end to the great de posit or zone up to the present de velopment of the mine. The expression "there Is a mountain of it," which you often hear in the hills, can be applied to the Verde with impunity. It is without question the biggest mine in the world."

Advice of a 1 MTm " -liffi " It is proper, I think, to let others know about the popularity and virtues of Acker's JCnglMi Remedy for Coughs, Colds and Con- gumption. From the moment I began hand lingit.itsold rapidly, nnd the sales keep crow ing all the time as fast as people And out what a re markable fireparation t is. The satisfaction it gives is universal. Our best cit izens lite it and say it is the best thing for throat and lung troubles they ever taw. Mr.8. H. Cul ver, one of our prominent townsmen, says ,Ackcr's English Remedy is the only medi cine that helped his chronic cough of many years' standing. At first it gave relief, and now, after taking a few bdttlcs. he is wholly cured. I -buy it by the gros at a time, and my sales are larger on this one medicine than on any other in in v store. It is a great filcusiireformetofciltliatwhilelnmprospcr ngl nm also doing so much good to thecom mimity in selling such a grand medicine." (Signed It. K. Douglas, Westfield, N. Y. Sold at 25c.
