DANDY REFORMERS.
Among the fusioniaU out in Jackson
couotr ibere are numerous candidates
for office. They are reofrmers. Tbey
were once democrat. W. S. .Crowell,
county judge of Jackson county, ie tbe
foremost and perhaps the slickest of
thftie reformers for office. lie bas been
county judjre two years. Uis term will
not expire until 1900. But bt wants
something else. He thinks be ia just
the kind of a man for governor, or con
sreeeman, or any old thing. He is
rabid free silver man; but when the
democratic connty convention of Jack
son couuty selected it delegates to the
mate convention two years ago, Crowell
was one. He-offered his proiytoT. G
Reames, an uncompromising gold demo
rrat. Why ? He gave tbe reason. It
. was lecauee he wanted to be sure that
vote would le cast against the silver
folly. He was a Cleveland democrat and
then fur the gold standard, tk) was W
M.. Colvig, and Henry Klippel. Cut
after the Chicago convention a change
came over the spirit of their dreams
What ia principle to them? It is office
thev want and office thev must have
then they'll stand in.
Our neighbors on the south must for-
uive us lot dipping into their pie. but
this is written to let the public know tbe
saujoleof reformers who are tbe chief
spirits in the "union'' movement in
Southern Oregon.
It is said notwithstanding the "hard
times" last year the following amounts
were Brent; $22,000,000 lor chewing
gum. $200,000,000 (or other amusements,
$625,000,000 for tobaico, 1002,192,854 for
intoxicating liquors. These figures make
a grand total of over $1,800,000,000 spent
for luxuries, or a sum about equal to the
entire amount of the circulating medium
in the hands of the pwple. Now
it ought to puzzle the brain of the aver
age inflationist to know where the money
comes from to purchase tbe neceseariee
of life if all there ia ia spent for luxuries.
For, if we cannot pay our debts because
the volume of tbe debt is greater than
tbe amount of money ia circulation,
then we cannot surely purchase if the
volume of our purchases is greater than
the money. Bat we do, and with a cir
culation of 1 1,800,000,000 we in this
country transact business representing
over $2,000,000,00i every week the year
round. What is needed is not so much
more money as too keep what we have
employed.
For the information of our esteemed
contemporary, the Bandoa Recorder,
which has worked itself into a frenzy be
cause the Plaimjk.u.kb said all values
are measured by gold, we beg to say that
tbe proposition that the government bad
the right to say what should constitute
money was not disputed. But saying a
thing is money, is one thing and com
pelling the commercial world to accept it
u such and at its face to something else.
Toil is a proportion that doei not seem
to penetrate the fog that surrounds (he
brain of the average tiatiat.
The. erstwhile silveritea ought not to
iueiat that those who have all along con
tended fur the gold standard should, now
that the party is thoroughly committed
to that policy, get out of th republican
baud waun. It ia uoticeable, however,
that thoee who are now shouting loudest
opposed a clean cut gold declaration uu
lil carried off their feet by au aroused
public opinion.
What has bocomu of the tcport of
those apoallud of fret silver who went to
Japau eight months agj to try aud
gather some material with which to off
eel the fact lhat the Japs have adopted
tbe gold standard? au uxchauge asks.
If they were couviuccd that the Japau
eeo acted wifely, they outtbt to have the
fraukuess to say bo. , - "
lbero is a bill before the New Jersey
legislature to tax both bachelors aud old
maids. That is hardly (air. Th clus
ters are not to blame. Like Barkis, they
are williu'. Make the tax uu Iho bache
lors double aud let it go at that.
The warlike preparations throughout
the country indicate that Uncle 8am
Is preparing for tbe worst. The old
muskets are being polished up and the
powder horns looked luto aud replenished.

Scrofulajwelling
On the Neck and Croat Weakness
Caused by Impure Blood Was
Constantly Crowing Worse.
"When my son Vint 6 yearn old he wos
in very poor health mid we coeJei KeH
nothing to relievo him. At the uge of 7
years he began to complain of Horcncs'j on
both sides of his neck and soon lumps be
gan to gather on evne side and grew to
half tho Hizo of au egg- Wo then became
pioro line-any and began to doctor him for
scrofula. Ho gradually grew Worn1, how
ever, until nl the ago of twelve years wo
find lout all hoe,! of his recovery.. He bo
cbiiii! ho weak he could sit up but it few
minutes ut a time. My wife saw Hood's
r'itrspnrilla rei omintiukdaiu great blood
purilitr mid we sent and got a bottle. Wo
began giving our boy the medicine ac
cording to directions and it whs not long
Ulurt! wo saw ho was improving. J Iu
continued taking it until ho whs in very
good health. He Is now 13 years old and
U well. We recommend Hood's Harnnpa
rills for nil troubles caused by Impure
blood.'1 S. M. SibVKit, lirouhc, Oregon.
