FROM THE SON : "Jk$Z
QentUmen: My father resides at Olover,
V t. Ho hat boon a groat sufferer from Herol
ula, and the inclosed letter will tell yon what
a marvelous effect
Ayer's Saxsaparilla
has bad In his case. I think his blood moat
bavo contained tho humor for at least tea
years ; but It did not show, except In the form
of a scrofulous sore on the wrist, until about
fire years ago. From a few spots which ap
peared at that tlmsedt gradually spread to as
to cover his entire body. I nemre you be was
terribly afniekHl and an objected pity, whoa
bo begitn iik: tij.' your niedtClnSL Mow, there are
few men of his uf wLo enjoy as good health
as he has. 1 couiu easily name fifty persons
who would testify to the facta in his case.
Yours truly, W. M. PHILLIPS.
FROM THE FATHER:
a duty for me to state to you the benefit I
have derived from the use of
Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
Six months ago 1 was completely covered with
a terrible humor and scrofulous sores. The
humor caused an Incessant and intolerable
Itching, and the skin cracked so as to aaose
the blood to flow in many places whenever
I moved. My sufferings were great, sad my
life a burden. I commenced the use of the
Sarsaparilla in April last, and have used
it regularly since thaV time. My -condition
began to improve at once. The sores have
all healed, and 1 fuel perfectly well in every
respect being now able to do a good day's
work, although 73 years of age. Many inquire
what hat wrought such a cure In my case, and
I tell them, as I bare here tried to tell you,
AVer's Sarsaparilla. Olorer, Vt., Oct.
21, 1882. Yours gratefully,
Hirajc Phillips."
Ater's Sarsaparilla cores Scrofula
and all Scrofulous Complaints, Erysip
elas, Ettema, Ringworm, Blotches,
Sores, Boils, Tumors, and Eruptions of
the Skin. It clears the blood of all Impu
rities, aids digestion, stimulates the action of
the bowels, and thus restores vitality and
strengthens the whole system.

The question of the final time for
tho adjournment of Congress Is stll1
untnswered. The limine voted to
pack Its trunks' on the 30th, day of
this month, but the Senate Is likely
to say, No! Impotable!.
The appropriation bill Is under dis
pute botween the two Houses, Is as
far from being settled as ever, and to
their number has been added tho
Consular and Diplomatic bill, with
nearly a million dollars difference of
opinion. The llouse, It la thought,
will not agree to any increase of bills,
and the only change for an early set
tlement of tho matter h In the Senate
yielding promptly.
The Sonate Is now trying to Pen
sion and not to Pension the Mexican
veterans ; and the great River and
Harbor bill Is struggling through the
Houe with many mutilations. Of
ojurae every Member thinks bis ill.-,
trict worthy of Government aid, but
the hopes of many, who thought to
ride back to Coogress on the tldo of
bavlog secured an appropriation have
been voted down. Itepreaontatlve
Hewitt of New York, and Ochiltree
of Texas astonished tho worlJ by de
parting from tho courte heretofore
followed in a river and harbor bill de
bate. Mr. liewitl moved to reduce
the appropriation for the Improve
ment of Hell Gate from $300,000, to
$50-000, and Mr. Ochiltree asked that
the entire appropriation of $260,000,
for deepening the Galveston harbor
be stricken out of the biK. This last
instance ef dlsintercstedneea wan af
terward hinted to be tho outgrowth
of a dffp laid plan, namely ; that
Galveston warns Congrees to transfer
the work of her barbers channel to
Capr. Kids, who uiodhate another
Jetty prtjecl.
Senator Bee ; asked to have paaaed
ageotralblll removing political dla
abilities ; but, twenty years after the
war, the Republican Senate Is still
unwilling to do so. The Senator from
Kentucky mentioned that the Vice
President of the Southern Confedera
cy has aat in the other end of the
Capital, and that many other persona
distinguished to lheAConfexleracy had
bad tbelr dlasabllitlAs removed. Still
Congreaa was peddling out the re
moval of di usabilities to persona who
were boys when t,uy ertered the
Confederate Army.
Brigadier General Swalm In to be
court martial ed for aferlea of tranaae-
tlom a brred 1 tabie to an Army officer
Thw record of the Ceurt of Inquiry in
bis cute has developed still another
Republican ecandal, and compelled
the order for another court-martial.
This last Is In the case of CoL Morrow,
who has duplicated, triplicated, and
even quadruplicated hi pay accounts.
It would have been better for the Re.
publican party If it could have man
aged to keep these skeletons In the
cloaet until alter the November elec
tions. Toe Democrat are beginning the
campaign In the Houe of Represen
tatives oo a civil service haals that
will cripple the Republicans by cut
ting off their campaign fund. Whon
the Deficiency bill comes up they in
tend to offer an amendment to the ef
feet that no officer, clerk, or employe
of the United State shall give money
for any political object whatever, un
der penalty of Hoe or Imprison
ment. When Chairman Randal
read this amendment In his commit
tee, It provoked a lively discussion,
and considerable opposition from tho
Republican Members.
Senator Laobam yesterday offered
in the Senate a resolution which was
agreed to, ordering the reprinting ol
the testimony and the committee re
ports of the Danville investigation.
This can befdene for no other possi
ble purpose than that of wasting pub
lic money. It canhave no other out
come.
Mr. Tilden'a letter of wlthdrawa
from the campaign was the genera
topic of conversation at the Oapitol to
day. A few Democrats still cling to
the idea that be can yet be prevailed
upon to accept the nomination, bu
the question that almost every Dem
ocrat addressed to a political associate
was, "Now whom shall we nomi
nate?"
Mr- Tilden's declination was a sur
prise, and a shock to many'Domocrat-
ic Congressmen, who had believed
there was no impedentin the way o
the old triumphant ticket.
The National Democratic Conven
Hon will make no mistake if it selects
either Cleveland, Bayard, McDonald
Tburman, Carlisle, or a dozen others
of the famous Democrats named.
It is amusing to see tbe pigmies ef

The twenijr-foiiith annual fair of the
Oregon State Agricultural Society will
be held at the Fair giounuXnear Salem,
commencing on Monday, September
I Tub, and continuing until Saturday
following. At tbe annual meeting of
tho Board of Managers, held in Decem
ber, 1813, several imiortant changes
were made in the premium list, the
premiums being in several instances in
creased over last vesr. la addition to
tbe liberal premiums offered for the
fair this year by the society, Messrs.
Kennedy and Smith, of Garvais, offer
special premiums for two best "..olts of
all wort," get of "Robin Hood" for
1884, 1st premium $30,wcond premium
$120. W. R. Cunuington, Bf of Mao
ramento, Cel., offers special premiums
as follows : For get of "Tornado and
Bonaparte,' foals of spring of 1HH4, ex
hibited at she Oregon State Fair of
1884. Fust premium $35 ; second
premium $--r ; third premium $17.50 ;
fourth premium $l'J.-r'0 ; Sfth orem
ium $10. Mr. Ilehm Jefferson, of
Salem, was i1. mii-I sup't of special
oommittee to ta oft tin- merits of tb
oolts oomsting fbf these premiums.
The tine exhibits made y several coun
ties at the last Stale Fair was one of
the best features of the Fair and the
Board of Managers offer this year to
the counties making the best display
of 'Maim produotr," Muile" and ''gar
den products," in divisions Iv M. and
N. respectively of the premium list
6rst premium, diploma ; second prem
ium, silver medsl.
This feature of the fair, if taken held
of aa it should and t o doubt will be,
will bo o( special intereat to tailors
fiom abroad who will be attracted to
the fair for tbe urioso of gaining in
ormation, and seeing for thrtuseles
wbsl our Slate is cstble of doing in its
agricultural development , V . Jack
son, Douglas, and tbe !; counties
can easily make exhi-i-a in iltfen de
triments that cannot b rc-llrd by
any State in the fjnfsw).
Many new in-miunn havo ln-en ad.
ded to tbeladiMo' dentrl m-tita and llHRrS
Ul doubtless li a finer exhibition iu
these department this vear than at any
previous fair.
Siecial premium?, $-' fbt and $10
second, are offered in each c la in di
vision B, rattle, for tbe Wat herd of 6ve
animals, to consist of one bull and four
cows or heifers of any age. Thee, in
addition lo liberal premiums offered SS
usual in this division, will bring to-
gether the finest exhibit of cattle evef
seen st the State fair.
lo the speed department, this year
the society offers the sum nf three
thousand two hundred and fifty dollars
in prenixma. Already tbe races ad
vertised in the speed program are filled
by the finest field of trotters and run
ning borses ever entered in the trials of
speed at tbe annual fairs of the society,
the society hsa secured membership in
the National Trotting Amociatidn for
lb) year 1K84 and 1883, and tbe pub
lic is certain to have tbe pleasure of
witnessing trials for blood, and exact
justice to all contestants.
Tbe orices of admission remain the
same, or nearly so as last year. Season
a
tickets for members of tbe society end
campers at the fair $2, season tickets
for ladies $l ; girls sod boys under 12
years of sge free ; day ticket for men
$1 ; ladies and boys 50.
In order to ccrrect abuses to license
privileges, end the impositions thst
have been increasing from year to year
in the past, the Bjard of Managets
took tbe fidlowing decisive Action rela
tive to the forthcoming fair, viz :
llesovl, "Thst no license shall be
granted by this society at tbe next State
fair for tbe sale of spirituous liquors."
Re$olvd, "That no licenses shall be
granted for the operation of any gamb
ling device prohibited by the statutes of
Oregon. And resolved, turtlier, tnst
all parties attempting to violate ths
lawa of this State at tbe annual fairs
held by this association, wo will en
deavor to hav. prosecute ! by the prop
er authorities."
The above will b rigidly enforced.
No effort will be spared to make the fair
of 1884 a cmplote succes. We there
fore urire renowed interest by former
pstrons of tbe fair in bringing forward
exhibits in everv department, and to
-
all who desire to encourage the society
in adrsncing the agricultuial, mechan
ical, and other industrial interests of
w
our Stale to cooperate with the society
in making a giand exhibition this year
Let every county tske hold of this mat
ter and make a showing that shall re
float, rrroat r-rodifc on the enlemtiae of
B -
its citizens. With such united effort,
success will be assured.

Rdilrf IF. C.T.U:
I had half forgotten my promise to
write and inform you of our prospects
as a W. C. T. U., and a sort of d sligh
ter of jour Union.
Since our organization in April e
have had no additions, although sons
promises of aid in tho future, and ow
ing to illness and absence we msmbtrs
have never all been in attendance only
at one meeting. Still we are in no
sense discouraged, sltheugh wo ore
more work to be done than wo oan un
dertake all at onoe. W0 re trying
now to have the laws enforced in re
gard to minors frequenting tho saloons,
as now small boys oven ore in sod out
without let or hindrance, and hsving
the saloon closed on Sunday, as thst
Isw evidently is not enforced. Many
go d citizens look st the subject as we
d , end wo expect our city council to
take some action at iu next meeting.
Tho Fourth of July is to bo oolebra
t -d hero, and we propose to have a
stand on the picnic grounds where we
will dispense hot coffee, leronoade, sand
wiches, cake, etc., far reasonable prices,
hoping by this means to l seen tbo de
mand for strong beverage, circulate
temperance literature, and also make
something for our treasury, so that wo
can send for tem'wrance lecturers sod
literature to aid us in our efforts, for
we naturally dislike to beg an 1 means
we must have.
We have our trials of course, but wo
are trying to be patient, and with faith
in the ultimate success of our cause,
above alt reliance on (i d, we need sot
fear, but still pray that we may be
t on nicd as "laborers."
tuito a number of ui want to come
over to besr Mrs. Poster lecture, and
w ill if we oan mensge it. It seems to
me thst you might posed blj reserve a
few seats for us. oo that we might not
be crowded into a back corner after
tskinj; a lonr ride, but terhar tb'ia is
Hking too much. Tbaaka for your in

A report from Supt. Juvenile Work
followed. This report was full and
com proh naive, showing that a great
deal of stress is to be given to the cor
rect information imparted to the little
ones. It was shown that a vast amount
of good would result from a generation
of good tempeiance children.
Tbe report ef the Superintendent on
Temperance Literature was submitted
by Miss C. M. White ef Fidalgo. She
olaimed her department to be one of
the moat important, and said it occupied
the broadest field. "This temperance
education of the public and tbe young
is the foundation, yea, the corner stone
upon which we build, if we build sue
oeabfully." She spoke of the impor
tance of newspapers, and asked for
- 4 a w
more temperanoe ne'a to make its ap
pearance. "Therefore give them some
of the startling facts of temperance, if
possible, and let every pronounced tern
perance paper have the hearty support
of all workers."
After this excellent report was dis-
1 eussed and adopted, Mrs. E. G. Johnson
oS eattle mado her rejrort on the de
psrtment 4 Heredity and Hygiene.
The paper was well prepared and was
supported by facts, figures ami strong
assertion".

Mr. Haskell's experience is repeated
ev.rv dav in the lives of thousands of
American men and women. An un
known evil is undermining the existence
of an innumerable number who do not
realize tbe danger they are in untd
health haa entiiely departed and death
perhaps stares them in the faca. To
neglect such important matters is like
drifting in the current of Niagara above

It has been claimed for Blaine, as
heretofore stated, thit he will get
some of the Irish votes on the ground
of his friendship for Ireland. The
Democratic Campaign Committee will
meet this by printing the records of
the cases of some of the Irish suspects
who were, though American eiti-
ftCens, Imprisoned by Eugland. A
speech delivered by senator voornees
on tho subject of the imprisonment
and detention of Mr. McSweeny, for
many years a resident of San Fran
cisco, and who was imprisoned for a
long lime, is to be printed. The
point to be made is that Blaine was j
Secretary of State for six months, jusfc
succeeding the arrest of McSweeney,
and that he did not even answer ap
peals in behalf of the man.
Chinese maudarians are so averse to
owning the superiority of foreign mili
tary organization and arms that officers
commanding drilled troops have been
known to reserve the use of rifles for
the enclosed barrack yards, and to re
view their men in public armed with
match-locks, spears and bows.
