(V She gaitg Sontut, ASTOKlA70KEGOiJ: SATCnDAYTmiFTBRL-ARY SC. 1S87 INJUSTICE CORRECTED. The interstate corarnqrec bill takes effect sixty days from the date of the president's signature, namely on April oth. The impending Franco-German war sort o' overshadows the regular report irom Belfast. The scrimmage there still continue, however. The Boise City Statesman says: We saw a letter yesterday from a distinguished senator, who is on the committee on territories, ad dressed to a citizen of Idaho, in which the senator expressed the opinion that no territorj would be admitted at this session of con gress. He spoke of "Washington territory in answer to a special in quiry as to its possible admission with the northern portion of Idaho annexed, and the senator said he did not think that Washington would be admitted. Says a San Francisco exchange: "The Woodlarf:, which -was out 295 days from Hamburg, brings 2,525 barrels of whisky, rather a strange shipment from Hamburg: but it is American whisky shipped from bonded warehouses to Ham burg and back to the United States. B' doing this the "holders get three 3Tears in bond, and after re-importation three j'cars more without paying internal revenue tax. During the voyage the whis ky loses about ten gallons to the cask, so that there is only, say, thirty gallons to pay internal rev enue on when it anives here. Be sides this, the voyage improves it and it sells at a much higher price. It costs about three dollars per barrel for the voyage, but the de cline in the quantity in each barrel and the leaser duty more than makes up for this. Besides six months' storage is saved.' The New York Tribune quotes a Democrat of national prominence, who has had a long confidential talk with the president, as string: "Cleveland is firm in his determin ation not to be a candidate for re nomination and re-election. The reasons he gives for this decision show him to be a greater man than many of us have given him credit for.' Smith Weed says that this s'atement is some what in the line of his own in formation, and adds: "The scnti raent over the count rjr seems to be in favor of nominating Governor Hill as Cleveland's successor." Ex-Mayor William H. Wickham sa3s: "If the report gets out that Cleveland says he will not be a candidate for renomination it will go far to make him the nominee. It looks to me like a piece of shrewd politics for him to lake this position." A coimEsroxDKXT of the Lon don Enquirer asserts that the chief cause of cracked cylinders in lar.ro engines is in starting tin- engines too soon. In huge hip", lie says, the steam can be got up in an hour in the boilers, but the engines should, as a rule, have from two to four hours to warm the cylinders to that the metal wilL have no undue strain oh it through unequal expansion when starting. Sometimes they get it, and other times not. When the steam is up, and just when the cylinders are warmed enough to put the iner ling of metal in a state of compression and the outer one in a state of tension, the en gines are started at a speed quick enough to bring over a few buck ets of water from the boilers; there are a few bangs and bumps, and then everything seems to be all right, but some time after, when the cylinders are opened, there is a crack found in one. Again, some of the cylinders in the mer chant service, according to this writer, are very large, but they receive quite another sort of treat ment; steam is up from four to six hours before starting, and when they do -start there is no stopping, with few exceptions, till the ship goes into port again. Convincing Verification or WJdecatt Public Statements. ToeunEnADCRS: In common with many publishers and editors, we have been accustomed to look upon ceitajn statements which we have seen in onr columns as merely adroit adver tising. Consequently we feel justified in taking the liberty of printing a few points from a private letter recently received from one of our largest patrons, as a sort of confession of faith to our readers. We quote : " We have convinced ourselves that by telling what we know to be true, we have produced at last a permanent conviction in tue pumic mind. Seven years ago we stated what the national disease of this country was, and that it was rapidly increasing. Three years ago we stated that a marked check had been given it. " The statistics of one of the largest life insurance companies of this coun try shows that in 18S3 and 1SS4, the mortality from kidney disorders did not increase over the previous years : other companies stated the same thing. It is not presumptuous for us to claim credit for checking these ravages. ' Seven years ago we stated that the condition of the kidneys was the key to the condition of health; within the past five years all careful life in surance companies have conceded the truth of this statement, for, whereas, ten years ago, chemical analysisto determine the condition of the kid neys "was not required, to-day mil lions of dollars in risks are refused, because chemical examination dis covers unsuspected diseases of the kidneys. " Seven years ago we stated that the ravages of Bright's Disease were insignificant compared with other unsuspected disorders of the kidneys of manv misleading names; that ninety-three per cent, of human ail ments are attributable to deranged kidneys, which fills the blood with uric acid, or kidney poison, which causes these many fatal diseases. " The uric acid, or kidney poison, is the real cause of the majority of cases of paralysis, apoplexy, heart disease, convulsions, pneumonia, consumption, and insanity ; over half the victims of consumption are first the victims of diseased kidneys. "When the recent death of an honored ex-official of the United States was announced, his physi cian said that although be was suffering from Bright's Disease, that was not the cause of death. lie was not frank enough to admit that the apoplexy which overtook him m bis bed, was the fatal effect of the kidney poison in the blood, which bad paten away the substance of the orteripR and brain: nor was Logan's phvsician honest enough to state that his fatal rheumatism was caused by kidney acid in the blood. "If the doctors would state m official reports the oriqinal cause of death, the people of this country would be alarmed, yea, nearly panic stricken, at the fearful mortality from kidney disorders." IS of ire. All exempt, resigned, or oilier past firemen, now dropped from the roll of their respt'C ive companies are request ed to Mirrender their badues to the sec retary of i he board of delegates, and save the fine imposed bv city ordmauce.

The writers of the above letter give these facts to the public simply to justify the claims that they haie made, that "if the kidneys and liver are kept in a healthy condition by the use of "Warner's safe cure, which hundreds of thousands have proved to be a specific, when all other reme dies failed, and that has received the endorsement of the highest medical talent in Europe, Australasia and America, many a life would be pro longed and the happiness of the peo ple preserved, it is successiui ran so many different diseases because it, and it alone, can remove the uric acid iromine uiouu tuiuujiuuic jwiuuca. Our readers are familiar with the preparation named. Commendation thereof has often appeared in our columns. "We believe it to be one oi the best, if not the best, ever manufactured. "We know the proprietors are men of character and influence. "We are certain they have awakened a widespread interest in the public mind concerning the importance of the kidnevs. "We believe with them that they'are the key to health, and that for their restoration from disease and maintenance in health there is nothing cnual to this sreat remedv. The proprietors say they " do not glory in tins universal prevalence o disease, but having started out with the purpose of spreading the merits of Warner's safe cure before the world, because it cured our senior oronriclor. who was aiven p by doc tors as incurable, we feel it our duty to stale the facts and leave the public to its own inferences. "We point to our claims, and to their public and universal verification with pride, and if the public does not believe what we say, we tell them to ask their friends and neighbors what they think about our preparations." J As stated above, we most cordially commend the perusal of this corre spondence by our readers, believing that in so doing we are fulfilling a simple public obligation.
