Curtiss the noted political and in dustrial writer, who some time ago visited this city and Wallowa county to procure data for writing several articles of this class. The article Is often misleading and not clear, though it has excellent features in It. The first sentence brands railroad em ployes as "undesirable citizens," when it states that Huntington is the worst town in four states, being populated principally by railroad men. Gradu ally the writer works his way to La Grande and in many respects, be it said to his credit, he has painted a true accurate pen picture of condl-, tlonB as they exist here. He devotes considerable space to the Industrial interests, " the geographical location aivr imt urn I mn ! considerable Bpace to the early his tory of the valley and its inhabitants. The underlrlng belief in eastern soulta that the west is still possessed with the typical gun man and western bad men crops out In various places from Mr. Curtlss's pen. .. In any event, the word La Grande will be read by a concourse of peo ple, for the article is run as the fea ture story, and is bound to attract a due share of attention. W DRY GOODS MANAGES.

Pendleton E.O. "Uncle Josh Tonight The tremendous and undisputed success of the new comedy drama. "Uncle Josh Perkins," which is to be seen at Steward's Opera house to night, is said to be due to more thaa one reason. In the first place "Unci Josh Perkins" has what nine out of ten latter day so-called productions cannot s lay legitimate claim to, an absolutely original plot, good dialogue and fourteen different and distinct types of character. A scenic produc tion complete to the most minute de tailthe brlllancy of its collection of Interpreters with all of these added features . and an added list of blgn class specialties in Its favor, then Is no other lot, but that of unbounded success due "Uncle Josh Perkins" and all Indications point towards Its local reception, being one of the most successful of the present season.

The Inherited poison, transmitted through the blood, pollutes and weakens this fluid, and in place of its nutritive qualities fills the circulation with scrofulous matter, which saps the vitality of the entire system. Thousands of children, bom with- a scrofulous taint, have spent their childhood In constant physical suffering, and grown to manhood or vomanhood handicapped by ill health and stunted growth, and perhaps later soma disease of the bones or joints developed. S. S. 8., given in their early life, would hare prevented this. It would bavo cleansed and purified the blood of the taint, nourished and stengthened their systems, and assisted each to grow into strong, healthful manhood or womanhood. S. S. S. is the very best remedy for Scrofula. It goes down to the bottom of the trouble, and cleanses the circulation of all scrofulous matter. It supplies the weak, diseased blood with strength and health-building qualities, and under the purifying effects of this great remedy all symptoms of Scrofula pass away, 8. 8. 8. contains no minerals In any form, and is an absolutely safe treatment for children.
