It cures Croup, Whooping Cough, Bronchitis, and Asthma; soothes Irritation of tha Larynx and Fauces ; strengthens tha Vocal Organs; allays soreness of the Luugs; prevjnts Consumption, and, even in advanced ttugos of that disease, relieves Coughing and Induces Sloep. There Is no other preparation for dhv euses of the throat and lungs to bo com pared with this remedy. " My wife had a distressing couch, with pain, in the side aud breast. We tried various medicines, but none did Iter any good until I got a bottle of Ayer'. Cherry Pectoral, which has cured her. A neighbor, Mrs. Glonn, bad tha measles, and the cough was relieved by the use of Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. I have no hesitation In recommeudlng thla Cough Medicine to every one afflicted. "Robert Horton, Foreman Jieadliyht, Morrlllton, Axk, " I have been afflicted with asthma for forty years. Last spring I was taken with a violent cough, whlrh threatened to terminate my days. Every one pro nounced me In consumption. I deter mined to try Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. Its effects were magical. I was Immedi ately relieved and continued to Improve) until entirely recovered." Joel ttullard, Guilford, Conn. " Six months ago I had a severe hem orrhage of the lungs, brought on by an incessant cough wliich deprived mo of sleep and rest. I tried various reme dies, but obtained no relief until I bo- ?;n to take Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. A cit bottles of this medicine cured me." Mrs. E. Coburu, l'J Second St., Lowell, Mass. "For children afflicted with colds, roughs, sore throat, or croup, I do not know of any remedy which will giva more speedy relief than Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.

Hi. 3, iiAA.ua aM 4l.ns.lMX, Imk'liU'ilucjfH and Assessment. The Union Scout of a recent Istne hat an article on the assessment question a hi should be widely circulated. It exposes the dishoneaty of taxpayers who evade paying just taxes on their money, notes and so- cotiuU. It snys: ''Figures wou't lie" is au old adage, but they uinke liars out of very many people in Oregon. The assessment rolls for the varlons counties in Oregon are now on Ale lu the office of tho Secretary of State, and the Ore gouian iu making a statement of the re source, of Oregon in its New Year's edition publishes tho summaries of the assessment rolls except the new county of Shenuan which was not In at that time, and these published luminaries ought to be an effec tive eye-opener for the honest taxpayers ol the Stnte. When each tax-payer is assessed, he lists his various kinds of property, giving it in tupposably at its true cash value, and then lists his Indebtedness in tho state, and strikes a balance which is the net taxable property, or the amount on which he pays taxes. These individual suessments are placed in the assessment roll of the county, the same kind of property and values under each other, and the whole county assessment summarized, showing the whole value of each different kind of property in the county the gross value of all, the Indebtedness in the state, etc., and a bulmico struck, showing the net tuxible property iu the couuty. Now It is very plain that every debt owed by oue mau is a note or accouut belouging to auother, aud when the one tiikes it out of his assessment as Indebtedness, the other should give it in as a note or account, aud since no Indebtedness is allowed outside ol the .late, the indebtedness claimed by iudi viduul tax-payers in Oregon should, when added together, be less than the uotos and accouut. assessed, by the value of those notes aud accounts owed by outsiders to our citizens, and which are assessed iu our state, Oue class of property is listed as "Money, notos, accounts, bonds, sharus of stock1 etc," and it i. safe to say that in Oregon the two items notes and accounts do not aggregato ovtr oue-half of the whole list In value, and heuce the indebtedness in th. state ought not to be over oue-half as much as the "Money, notes, accounts, bonds, shares of stock, etc," But the returns show that all this class of property aggregates ouly $10,253,725, while the Indebtedness olaimed amounts to f 35,51)8,179, or more than twloe as much ta the whole of the notes and ac' counts addvd to the money, bonds, stock, and county orders in the state. Now it is probablo the indebtedness ii given iu about right, if so, the money, notes, accounts, bonds, shares of stock, eto. In Oregon "iu truth" aggregate not less than $70,000,UUO whilo the assessors return but little over i 10,000,000. Now who is it owni these bonds, money, eto., that escapes taia. lion? Is it the nion in ordinary eiroum stanoes or is it the wealthy class?

Does any Intelligent person in Oregon believe that Union county has 1140, 000 more money, eto., than Marion oonnty with her city of Salem and flourishing man ufactures and banks? Marlon county says so, and then claims 1965,000 more indebted' ness than Union county, while Lane county ith her thriving Eugene City, claims more than twioe as much indebtedness as she gives in money, notes, accouut., etc., and Linn oonnty with her rich and beautiful city of Albany, tries to beat Multnomah by claiming throe and one-half times as much debt as she has money, eto. But let us drop the rest and examine i r rR0YALI5Sl.il J N Multnomah county a little further. The county of Multnomah contains the city of Portland which elaims to have over 00,000 population. Hor people claim that the is the richest oity in propor tion to population in the world. She claims no lesa than twenty millionaires. Her real estate transactions for the year 1889 amountdd to $14,000,000. Hor manu facturing output amounted to 120, 000,000. She claims that she bad $03,000, 000 invested in wholesale and retail trade, not including incorporated banks or railroad Incorporations. The last statement of her ten princlp,i;banks show a capital of 10,150,. 000, with surplus and uudivided profits amounting to (2,308,750.32, or a total bank capital in those ten principal banks of $8, 518,750.32. Those published bank state ments must be sworn to the same as the as sessments of her individual taxpayers. The deposits in the banks ought to amount to really as much as the bank stock proper, and yet the bank stock alone of ten of her banke amount ioflct times what the whole county gave in aa money, notes, accounts, bonds, etc., to the assessor. It is humiliat ing after roadlng the statistics of Portland's trade and wealth as gathered and arranged by the Oregouian, to notice that the gross value of all property of tha whole of Mult nomnh oounty, as given to the assessor for the year 1889 is $10,099,000, and, after taking out ludebtodness and exemptions she pays taxes on only $29,684,070. From the foregoing we must ooncludo that Multnomah oounty gives in (be most dishon est assessment iu the state; that Umatilla and Yamilll counties came the nearest giving an honest assessment; that on this class of property Eastern Oregon ia assessed fully twice as high aa Willamette valley, while Willamette valley counties claim full twice as muoh indebtedness in proportion to assessment on money, eto., as Eastern Oregon oounties. The evil lies primarily with the taxpayers who give lu a dishonest assessment, and it Is hard to devise a satifactory remedy, for it ia true that there are peoplo who are strictly honest in every other business trans action, who are good and law-abiding citi tens, and yet will lie about their assessments and swear to it if necessary.

Roseburg Review: Speaking of the wishes of the granger, of Oregon, the Plsindeoler recently remarked : "They are in favor of the manufacture of jute grain sacks by convict labor at the Ore- arm alntn tiAnttmitiurv. Th .Imi't vnnl I'ennoyor for next governor, and they don't want a man from the agricultural or mechan ical clauses to fill that highly honorable but poorly payiug office." Our esteemed contemporary bad an un doubted right to make this statement While it has dawned upon do other mind, the bright Intellect of the Plalndealer editor may really have discovered that the gran gers wish to defeat their truost friend, Gov ernor Pennoyer. That paper has a right to cling to Ibis delusion and to promulgate it to the publio, but allow ns to suggest that a little consistency would look bettor. In the same issue of the Plalndealer, the following state ticket is suggested and its success pre dicted: Congress, B. Hermann. Governor, D. P. Thompson. Secretary ol State, Geo. W. McBride. State Treasurer, Tom Wright, of Union county. Btuto Printer, F. O. Baker. Sunt. Pub. lust.. E. McElroy. What a grand combination of agricultural. ists. The flat of the grangers has gone forth. Gov. Pennoyer must be "downed" to make room for "Farmer" Dava Thompson, and "Mechanio" Binger Hermann, and the rest of theae homy handed tollers are to be given a little rest from their muscular labors, in order to allow them opportunity to look after the Interests of their follow laborers and mechanic at the state capilol. Now, the Plalndealer knows very well that its talk about the farmers being opposed fo Pflnnnv.1. M.Atunltrtn (a .11 nnsuinu. A truer friond of the people never oocupied the . executive chair of the state of Oregon. Only short time since a prominent farmer, a man of influence in the Republican party of Douglas oounty, said to one of the editors of the Review, "Why don't you show np more of the corruption of the last legislature? It was the most corrupt body of men that ever got together, and if it had not been for Gov. Pennoyer they could have stolen every cent in the state treasury." Now this man ia a prominent Republican and be is only one among many who have txpreued the same sentiment.
