Today the county government is prac tically in the bands of the populists. We look for economy. Hannaand his millionaire committee certainly should make things bum, for money makes the mare go; but will the people go this year? $40,000 is on hacd to improve the Willamette river. If it is spent honest ly and not waisted it will do a gteat deal of good. v h M.Teller, baa just written to i friend : I notice the gold-standard dem ocrats have declared their intention to control the Chicago convention. I do not think they can do it If our Bilver friends con.'rol the convention and give ns a good silver man, as 1 think they will, I think Le should have the active suppott of all who believe the money question is the great question belore the American people. We must, for this ampaign at least, overlook all jninor differences, and put the country on sound financial system that recognises gold and Bilver as the money of the con stitution. I believe this can be dore, and to that end we must bend all our nergiea. A little more patriotism and a little less partisanship is. what our country needs at this time. The frienis of silver made no mistake at ftt. Louie and we must not make a mistake as to our future alliance with other silver ad vocates. The cause is of too much im portance to admit of carping or criti cism. We must all get together and act together until the battle is won- It will be a roval battle, with lustice on oni side.

Scores of the af&icted fljeked to bis rooms, and he guaranteed to lid them o tbeir physical troubles. His terms, in variably the eame, were the payment of SI for an examination and all the way from $10 to $300 for a perfect restora tion of health . Those of the public who believed in his healing powers paid the price, and alarming inroads in the revenne of phy sicians were made. Dr. A. . Barns, a pbysiean, tired of witnessing bis patients dwindling in number, thought it wonld be best for himself and his brother phy sicians to rid the town of Hermann, eb be sued out an injunction restraining Hermann, W. Fletcher Hall, his lecturer, and Dr. H. A. Wall, bis licensed physician,- from practicing. The two first " named were also arrested for practicing without a license, Dr. Dewey making th charge. . ' . The allegations of thfj petitions for an injunction are that the defendants have no knowledge of medicine; that they are grossly ignorant of anatomy, etc. ; that none is a licensed physician, and that their practicing and agreeing to cure manifestly incurable diseases will effect the standing and business of licensed physicians. Ex. Washington Letter. From oar regular CorraapoiHieot. Washesgtos, June 9. 1896. The delegates to the Chicago conven tion have all been chosen, and even President Cleveland now recognizes that silver has won, and that a free coinage plank in the platform ia as tear a cer tainty as anything not yet actually ac complished can be. Tliere isn't half the kicking from the anti-silver democrats that might have been naturally expect ed. There. iB a general disposition to submit as gracefully as possible to the old democratic idea that a majority rn.es. Bat the contest for the bead of ' the ticket is not over, as it seems that the silver democrats will be a few votes short of tne two-thirds necessary to nominate. If that should tnrn out to be the case there may be qnite a number of ballots before the nomination is made. Should the eilver men have two-thirds it is the opinion of some well informed democrat that Gov. Boies, of Iowa, if his friends can convince the convention that be can carry bis oid state, will stand an excellent chance far getting the nomination. " whatever the Chicago convention does," said an old time democrat, hope it will not repeat the Gesley fool- business by going outside of the party for a presidential candidate. : The very ssme laik about the .great number of re publican votes that might be captured by nominating some republican like Senator Teller, of Colo., or Senator . Cameron, of Pa. was beard in Greeley's behalf just before the meeting of the democratic National Convention of 1872, and just look at the res q it. The Greeley ticket received only 66 electoral votes out of 352, or 14 less than were cast for Sey mour and B!air, in 1863 when Virginia, Texas and Mississippi bad no votes owing to their not having been recon strusced st the time. The experience of 1872 will be remembered this year, if the Chicago convention goes outside the parly for a candidate. Col Isaac Hill, be.ter kaoan to every body around the house end of the Capi tol, where he bas been the democratis whipper in for manyysars, as ''lkehill,' . has just returned from his Ohio home He says McKinley cannot possibly carry that state 'The people won't stand it," he continued ; "they have got tbeir hearts set on an Ame-i ican system of finance, and nothing short of free coin age at-the old ratio will suit them. Why, I drove 65 milee through the country in aja?gy and met hundreds of my repnb- lican personal friends who said, 'Ike, we are with you against the gold bugs; Wall street has run this country, and has a boot run it in tt ground. We want a Changs, and are going to vote for the Chicago nominee and for free silver. The tariff is a back number; give ns the money of the constitute and the dollar of our daddies.' " Mr Walter H. Hamm-md, whose home is at the Indiana town named for his father who was a member of the fifty third congress, says of democratic pros pects in Indiana: "A majority of th democratic voters of the stale are ardent believers in fres coinage as was sbown at the late state convention and a great many, republicans can Also Le counted on the silver side.' Hon. C. A. Hardin, of Kentucky, say that state can be counted upon with ab solute certainty to roll up a big majority - for the ticket named at Chicago, and he is equally positive that West Va., where he bas jaat been on business, will do the same. Every Day Questions Answered. The New York World asked Governor Boies some questions. Tbey are such as are being asked every day on the ailver question. As they were pretty well answered we give the replies: Do you really believe the TJ nited States able, if free coinage were adopted, to maintain our currency at par with gold unaided by any other nation ? - I do not profess to be able to state with absolute certainty Whether it would or would not. The great mass of the friends of silver in the South and West believe would. They reason thus: Coinage laws fix the commercial value of gold by providing an unlimited demand for it at a ei vet; Drice. Like laws would fix the price of silver, provided only that the demand should remain unlimited for all that would reach our mints. 'J The silver of the orld would not come there, as sensationalists argue. More than two thirds of the people of the world are bow on a single ailver basis. Thev must continue to have ailver for their use. Tae gold-standard countries use silver largely as token money. They cannot spare what tney have or curtail their nesessities for more. Silver is extensively need in the arts- Much of its value in the cat e U in the labor bestowed upon it. To send it to our mints is to destroy this. It will not come, but instead of this eilver bullion will continue in the future as in the past to Le largely used for that purpose. The silver of the world outside of our own are insufficient to supply the demands of the nations other than ours for these purposes. A large per centage of our own pro luct will continue to be used in the arts in our own country, and much of it must go to other countries. It U. therefore, the surplus product n'one of the mines of the world, after all our de mands are supplied, that can possibly come to on r mints. For this we will furnish an unlimited demand lor an in finite period, if not for all time. To make room for it we can, if necessary retire every national bank note, every greenback and Treasury note, and sup ply their places with silver certificates, a non-interest instead of an interest bearing currency, so far as national bank notes are concerned. Before we have filled this void silver will have reached a commercial valne equal to gold at 16 to 1 ; other nations trill have opened tbeir mints, and the trouble will be over. Personally, I be lieve Webeter and many othxrs of the most eminent of American statesmen in the past were right in thstr conclusion that the constitution of the United States fairly construed, requires of Congress that it ehali by law provide for the coin age of both gold and silver, as standard money that it can no more rightfully demonetize one metal than it can both ; and I believe also that lh Constitution requires that measures shall be adopted by Congress which will enable the coins made from both metals to circulate side by aide as part at least of our medium of exchange. If the adoption of free coinage should make all our paper and silver money worth about 60 cents on the dollaFin gold, would not the enormous shrinkage produce the greatest panic ever known in this country, and would it not require at least sixteen years, if the entire silver p redact of the United States were coined into money at the present ratio, to raise' the volume of our total stock ot money to its present value? The theory of free-silver advocates in the South and West is that gold, by reason of the demonetization of silver, and thereby the destruction of one half of onr primary money, bas appreciated until, as a measure of valnee, R baa been very largely increased in purchasing power, or, in other word, in value. They believe that the remonetization of silver wiil reduce this inflVM value of gold, and also that the greater use that will be made of eilver, if onr mints are opened to ite free coinage, will enhance the commercial valae of silver bal.'ion, and in this way the commercial valne of one metal being reduced and that of the other increased, they would be brought together at a ratio of 16 to 1, so that there wonld be no excuse for a panic un less it were precipitated voluntarily by the creditor class. If this should be done the people of this nation who do not belong to the creditoi class would be fully competent to defend themselves, through law, which they could easily make, and which they would be entirely jostified in making if a necessity therefor should be created. It is not probable that intelli gent buaineu men will force a necessity of this character. Do yon think that international co operation for free coinage is worth striv ing for? I believe the United States should stand ready at all times toco-operate with other nations for the establishment of silver as primary money by interna tional agreement. I do not believe there is any hope whatever that further action on its part under present conditions wonld result in any gool. Silver was demonetized by the separate and inde pendent action of each of the nations that struck it do an. If it is ever re- monetized, that act, in my judgment, will be accomplished in the same way. Some strong nation will set the example; others will follow. Do you not think that, if the United States should adopt the currency basis of Mexico and China, it would make inter national bimetallism impossible? There is no just comparison whatever that can be made between the United States and Mexico or. China. To intro duce such a comparison is to confuse rather than enlighten the anders'aodi.ng of men. There is no reasjn to believe that the re-establishment of the free coinage of silver by any one of tbe great commercial nations of the world now on a gold basis would retard international bimetallism. Tbe effect wonld be the reverse, be cause it would give tbe nation in which the free coinage of both metals waj ts tablished an advantage in its commercial relations with the silver countries of '.ha world that gold-standard nations could not and would not endure, and they would thus be forced into, some arrange ment, international or otherwise, fcr the free coinage of both metals. Hob ace BotgM. Tbe National darawra-.'u cjnveition met in Chicigi todiy. It is bc-in watched with great interest. In it deliberations tbe financial qneuion is overshadowing all others. A silver man wilt be nominated and an outspoken silver plank inserted in the platform How the single gold standard men wil accept tbe situation is a matter of con siderable moment. The democratic party ia one hundred years old, substantially tbe ae of tho federal, national republican, whig and republican par tie j combined. ' Get vour lawn mower sharrMn3 hv M. Ludtrisr, oppasite P, O. What is called London now has a pop ulation of over 6,000,000 people, too many for one town. ' ' " The reserve is again just where the Democrat predicted it would be, down at the $100,000,000 mark. It will keep dropping. The Oregonian continues to cry that bimetallism is merely a silver standard. This is merely a statement with nothing to justify it. One of the great issues of the future will be good roads. The Democrat will always be found in favor ot good road planks, but not plank roads. That motor will be a good thing if it gets ai far as Lebanon! We hope (twill come to Albany, but as far as Lebanon is pretty good for these times. The New Jersey tail to the republican ticket Is a heavy one. It bas fifty cor porations attached to it. The Pendleton E. O. boasts of its 4ib of July celebration. It Lad Judge Lowell as president ot tbe day, Teler D'Arcy as orator and the world famous Joaquin Miller as poet. Jonathan Bourne, of Portland, is be ing kicked out of the secretaryship of the state republican central committee juet because he is a free silver man. One would think that was not a very judi cious thing to da. The world likes originality, and to the young man or woman who give some thing new in idea or style is appreciated. 'Chestnuts' are not wanted. This does not refer to the reading of good old books full of solid thought. We ehou'.d read more of the good literature of the world. The Chautauqua courses offer one of the finest svstems of reading and study ever offered the world. Every body knows about it, only to commend it, for its cleanness as welt as literary merit. The young people oi today need more of it in place of the trash they are devour ing. If possible they should read some good system, if not Chautauqua some other not so extensive. One might as well devour thistles as trashy liters atnre. Robert Harvey, ou ol ilia oldest citi zens of Hendricks acounty, Ind , died Friday night. Just before bia death be muttered something about bis buried money. 11 is sister began digging in the yard, and found a tin box, containing a large amount ot money. Since that time a1 most 14,000 have been found in vari ous places, often buried in loose earth. His w'.H gives this lot to bia little grand daughter, and ber guardian is claiming the buried coin. His other relatives also lay claim to the mouer, and tbe legal Iraternity ia trying to decide who really is tbe owner. As Mr Harvey owns about 100 acres of land, and said before be died that "there ia money on the farm, too." the search for his fortune will be a long one. Will It Be Done. If all the silver Democrats, silv -r Pop nlists, silver Republicans, and silver Prohibitionists can t united so far as to cast their votes tor a single presidential f candidate, that they can tlect him is about as certain as anything in American politics can well be. If, however, there ba a substantial division of their votes between ri7al can didates, each bearing alolt a silver en sign, tbe election of McKinley is a fore gone conclusion. Therefore lbs duty of the Democratic convention, which meets on the 7th is both delicate and important By far tbe largest united element io favor of . the immediate resioratisn ot ailver ia what is popularly known as tbe '"silver wing'' of tbe Democratic party. Njtonly is it the largest numerically, but its geo graphical location gives it even greater importance than ita mere numbers would suggest. It is the controlling element io the second greatest political party of tbe nation a party that at times actually outvotes the Republican. What ia even more significant, this wing constitutes tbe massive strength of the organization in the sooth and west. where differences on the money question are rapidly disintegrating the Kepubli can party. Still, tbe silver wing ol tbe Democratic party, standing alone, cannot come any where near carrying the election. No matter wbo the candidate may be, many of the gold Democrats w ill vote fcr Mc Kinley. and iu order to succeed, tbe Democracy must name candidates anJ adopt a (latform that will command the support cf from two to three m'llioos of Populist and Republican voters Bi- metalist. A correspondent In the Indianapolis Sentinel says : "I am told by a man from whom I sometimes bny cigars that there is a wholesale cigarmaking firm In New York which bas oOVred 1,0 JO for the best name for a uew brand which they a's at present selPng as "the on named." He went on to say that tbe number of trademark names which tbe manufacturers throughout tbe country pay tbe government a fee for registering would astonish the average citizen, and judging by a recently issued list which he showed me, he is quite correct in his opinion. I was particularly struck with the manner in which the current events of the time were seized upon for names. The worlds of the drama, of music, of primes and of historical events have all provided names for brands of cigars re cently, and evep if they are not all put on the m irket, tbe manu'ac'.urers, so my informant said, would make nse of tbe majority of the titles. For instance, a Philadelphia firm has registered such up-to-date brands as the "Gen.

Centuries sen. peo ple used to fear what they called the pes tilcnce. "Black Death" was the most terrible thing in me worm to them. They feared it as people now fear the Cholera and Yellow Fever. And yet there is a more tcrri ble thing than any e . i vi iucsc. sacic ia a thing that causes more misery and more deaths than any of these. It is the commonest trouble that human beings suffer from. It is so common that nine-tenths of all the sickness in tbe world is traceable to it It is merely that simple, common thing constipation. There is no telling what it may lead to, but ft ia sure to lead to something bad. Ita im mediate effects are unpleasant in the ex treme. It makes people listless, gives them headaches, makes the digestion poor, causes dizziness, loss of appetite, loss of sleep, foul breath and distress after eating. All this merely because Nature has been imposed upon, and haa been refused the little help she needed. This little help ia furnished by Doctor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. One pill ia a gentle laxative and two a mild cathartic. There are two remarkable things about the "Pellets." One is that they never gripe; the other that they cure permanently. There ia no other medicine that does cure permanently. You can take any other medicine you like, aa long as you like, and if you stop, your trouble will come back quickly, and the cbancea are the trouble will be worse than it waa before. This isn't true of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. You take them until you get yourself into perfect working order, and then you stop. You don't have to take any more "Pellets " unless after a while you do something that deranges your digestive system again. We er not guessing about these facta, and we don't ask you to take our unsupported word for it. Thousands of people have found that they are true, and have testified to them. Let the druggist wbo aays that some thing else Is "Just as good " sell that some, thing else to somebody else. Don't let him trifle with your health for the sake of a little mors profit to himself.
