Judge Crowell will com mence the taking of evidence in these cases about the middle of this month. There is contested land in other parts of Southern Oregon which these gentlemen expect also to look alter. They are employed by the railroad company and both have previously been over the land, hence the why foreness of the company's selection. In a recent letter to the manufac turers Mr. W. F. Benjamin, editor o the Spectator, Rushville, N. Y., says; "It may be a pleasure to you to know the high esteem in which Chamber lain's medicines are held by the people of your own state,where they must be best known. An aunt of mine, who re sides at Dexter, Iowa, was about to visit me a few years since, and before leaving home wrote me, asking if they were sold here, stating if they were not she would bring a quantity with her." The medicines referred to are Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, famous lor its cures of colds and croup: Cham berlain's Pain Balm for rheumatism, lame back, pain in the side and chest, and Chamberlain's Cholic, Choleraand Diarrhoea Remedy for bowelcomplaint. These medicines have been in constant use in Iowa for almost a quarter of a century. The people have learned that they are articles of great worth and merit, and unequaled by any other. They are for sale here by Geo. H. Has kins. Fifty Cents for Wheat. I will pay fifty cents per bushel for all wheat delivered to me in payment of blacksmithing accounts.

Any person carrying an endowment or tontine life insurance policy desiring to sell or borrow money on same, please apply to G. L. Webb, NEWS FOR THE AFFLICTED. Announcement That Interests flany Dr. Darrln, the Eminent Spec ialist, to Visit nedford Sep tember aoth to Octo ber 3d. While averse to drawing the attention of our readers to any advertisement which partakes of a medical character, we feel more than justified in overriding this objection with renpect to the an nouncement in this issue of the coming visit of Dr. Darrin. This far-famed physician (late from Portland), who hat) achieved such a great reputation throughout the coast ami northwest, has been prevailed upon, through the urgent request of many in this vicinity to visit Medford, as they could not afford bv their time and busi ness to consult him at his offices in Port land. The doctor has at lust consented to visit this city to accommodate the affiieted and will have his office at the Hotel Nash.' Those wishing to consult the doctor will find it to their advantage to consult him while here and during the first part of his stay, as many re quire more than one treatment by elec tricity. He comes to us luden with tsstinion ials from the whole northwest, and the authentic reports of some of his cures seem nothing short of miracles. So many thousands are already acquainted with his mode of treatment, it seems un necessary to state that he uses little medicine in the majority of cases, and perfects his cures by the wonderful power of electricity. There are few ills to which the humun flesh is heir, which cannot le relieved and generally permanently cured by Ir. Damn's electro-magnetic and medical treatment, and casea that have resisted the efforts of ordinary physicians have yielded to his power. These cases em brace almost every kind of disease, and, as said before, no man, woman or child need despair of relief of cure while Dr. Darrin offers his invaluable service. Unlike other physicians who have be come eminent in their proiession, the doctor's "charges are extremely moderate ami reasonable according to circum stances and ability to (my, and he will not undertake any case that he cannot cure or benefit. Consultation is free to all. Should there v case that are in curable, he will immediately discover them on consultation, thus saving his patient any further expenditure of time or monev which thev might otherwise squander. Dr. Ihrrin makes a specialty of all dis eases of the eye, ear, nose and throat, catarrh and deafness, and all nervous, chronic ami private uiseases, such as loss of manhood, blood taints, syphilis, gleet, gonorrluva, stricture, spermator rho-a, seminal weakness and loss of de sire or sexual power in man or woman. All peculiar female troubles, leucorrhea, displacements, etc., are confidentially anl aucresstuiiv treateil. .Most cases can be treated at home after one visit to the doctor's office. Office hours from 10" a. in. to 5 p. m. Evenings 7 to 8. The worthy poor will be treated free, according to his time honored custom, from 9 to 10 a. m. daily. Circulars and question blanks sent free. Inquiries answered. All business relations with Dr. Darrin are strictly confidential. A REMARKABLE CURE. firs. J. W. Noah Cured of Consump tion by Dr. Darrin. (Coast Mail) To the Editor: Having noticed Dr. Darrin'o advent in Marshfield, I wish to state what he did for my mother, Mrs. J. W. Noab, five years ago, while in Portland. My mother had been afflicted with bleeding of the lungs, cough and called by many physicians lingering consumption, for IS years prior to going M under the IDr's care. The treatment i . . . proved successi ui. sue was cured in few months with home treatment, and is now enjoying the blessings of health. My mother lives on South Coos river 17 miles east of this p'ace. I can be re ferred to-'by letter or in person. Post- office address, Marshfield. J. E. Noah Deafness Cured In 10 flinutes. (Coast Mail) Dr. Durrin s visit in Marshfield at the Blanco hotel has been marked with good results. Not only has he been crowded with patients, but his marvel ous results achieved in the new trout ment by electricity is almost beyond be lief. One cure in particular is that of Mr. Lackstrom, well and favorably known in Marshfield and North Bend, where he is employed and whose card we publish below. The art of curing disease by electricity can be classed with other discoveries of the day, and who knows but what all diseases and ills of the flesh will be conquered by this subtle force. It is a theme for study and reflection. MR. LACKSTROM'S CARD. To the public: While adverse to pa rading myself in print I cannot let the opportunity pass without giving my ex- perience with Dr. Darrin, for the bene fit of others afflicted with deafness as well as to the public generally. For years before undergoing treatment with Dr. Darrin I have been gradually grow ing deaf in one ear, accompanied with ringing noises. Dr. Darrin has cured me with electricity, much to my joy and comfort. Refer to me at North Bend, Or. Wm. Lockstrom. The Gold Democrats. There was much speculation as to what material would go to make up the platform of the gold demo crats at the Indianapolis convention but a draft of the money plank pre pared in the treasury department would, :t was thought, have the pref-' erence over the dozens or sugges tions made by those who were anx ious to lay down the new democratic code, suggests an Indianapolis re port made prior to the assembling of the convention. There was also talk of a plank in favor of currency reform, having for its main object the retirement of the greenbacks and a revised system of issuing bank notes to be redeemed and re issued and supported by a gold re serve in the banks, with the main tenance of all currency at a par with gold. This scheme is said to have behind it several strong men, who will push it before the com mittee on resolutions. There is also a movement to secure an indorse ment of the principle of income tax, but this does not receive very hearty support from the delegates who are now here.
