Dr. U. P. X. Muller, tbe Orange Free

THE PAPER TRUST.
All the talk tint is being indulged in
by a certain class of newspapers, in re
Hard to tba paper trust bavin put u; tbe
price of white paper, and calling on con-;
grass to take the tariff off paper and j
paper pulp, ia all rot and if tbe editors of
these papers have got sense enough to
run newspaper, they know- it. It is
true that the price of white paper has
advanced daring the past year until the
Kibscriptioo price of a paper like the
Plalsdkalkk, will hardly pay for tbe
paper on which it is rioted, but the
facta -ere that tbe demand for white
paper during tbe past 5 ear bas been
enormously increased, and at the same
time tbe supply baa decreased. White
paper is manufactured iroui wood pulp,
made from logs, saw ios if you please,
and millions of feet cf logs are used
every year in tbe manufacture of paper.
Tbe paper mills are located in tbe New
England and Atlantic statee, and tbe
timber for these rail!: corn's largely from
tbe Maine fores is, and is cut to be floated
out daring the spring rise in the streams.
Last spring there was no water to
float out the logs, consequently there
eras a shortage and a very heavy one in
tbe timber supply for tbe paper mills.
Two years supply of timber is now lay
ing on tbe banks of the streams ready to
Boat out next spring. This county ex
ports wood pulp in large quantities and
- the supply being short (he demand
both at home and abroad increased tbe
price just as a shortage in (be wheat
crop would pat up the price of wheat.
Jeet how it woutd help os to take tbe
tariff off wood pnlp when we export that
article Instead of importing it is some
thing that we can't understand. One
thins that would help would be tbe
building of more pp?r mills in Oregon,
where we have an abundance of raw
material and splendid water power to
work it up.
If , our demo-pop friends would use
some of their energies in a'tempting to
induce capitalists to invest tbeir money
in manufactures in this country, instead
f bowling about tbe oppression of capi
tal and doing evertbiog in tbeir power
to drive away capital, (bey could accom
lih something for the good of Oregon.
j the legation, added :
'Both lepublice will have fuli freedom
and independence. Further, England
will have to give up those parts of Cape
Colony, Natal and Becbuacalahd, where
the inhabitants have thrown in their lot
with tbe republic,. for they mwt not le
left in tbe lurch."

KLTKKAT TO KKNSHKKG.
Nkw Yobk, Feb. 14. The ota)chre
auuouncing the British "retirement" at
Kensherg aro not yet satisfactory. "Our
lostes are not yet kuoau," says the
Daily Mail's correspondent. There va9
hot tlghtiug nil day aud at night the
British retreated.
This news is the moro deprcssiux to
Loudon, because only a lea' dnys ago it
was believed General Freuch was able 'o
take Cotesburg. If the Boers aie able to
defeat General Clements iu a decitive
engagement, they may threaten Lord
Roberts' bate of supplies at DeAar jauc
tiou. This unexpected show of strength
by the Boers at Coletberg bas amazed
those who were predicting an easy march
for Lord Roberts through tbe Free State
Tbe experts who saw in General Balier'a
capture and abandonment of Vaalkrantz
a hue piece of strategy, say that Gener
al Clement's retreat to Rensberg ia patt
of tbe same policy, to ebgage large forces
of Boers while Lord Roberts demolishes
Crouje.
It is believed that General Bulier has
w ithdrawo his whole force quarter of a
uii.Iiou men, and Ibis force to put down
two small republics whose united white
population is iupp)eed not to exceed
450,000 men, women, children and
Citlandors. Nothing but this fact was
needed to demonstrate the futility cf the
ministerial scheme of army reorgrniza
t.on laid before parliament cn .Moaday.
" fl.e preciee nature 6i Ix;d Roberta,
movements ou Modder river and Orange
river are wrapped in mystery. Certain
it ia that the country General French
maneuvered the Boers out of in Nortncrn
Cape Colony has been reoccupied by tbe
Boers. General Balhir is keeping bis
own secrets, but we may lock for another
move on his pai I in a day or two, prob
ably east of Co-eneo."
The Mcrning Post'a war expert rays :
'The announcement of new appoint
ments cor firms tbe soppoeitien that a
largs force has now been assembled st
Modder river. Tbe offensive cannot be
carried on along the whole line and tbe
commander-in-chief must determine the
point at which Le will act. It looks as
though the Boeis bad taken tbeir forces
away from Magesrfontein to reinforce
the commander at Colesberg, where i
victory would threaten the British com
manications between Cape Town and
Modder river."
The expert compa;ea tbe situation to
the American civil war at the time when
tbe army of the Potomac tieid alt tbe
Confederate foicee in Virginia, while the
WtEtern armies moved down the Mlssii-
sippi and through tbe Lcart of the con
federacy to Atlanta and Satannah and
the: e north to General Lte'a rear.

Gentlemen: Haying been requested
by yoar honorable body to determine tbe
nature of tbe eruptive diseate now pre
valent in tbe vicinity of Crow, Panther,
Mound aod Hadleyville, and advise you
regarding tbe nature of tbe same, beg to
submit tbe following repoit:
On Sunday, Feb. 11, 1900, we visited
tbe neighborhood of tbe epiJeaiic, ex
amined several caees in different stages
of tbe disease, and enquired into tHe
history and nature of tbe epidemic. Al
together about 100 persons have been
affected. Although none, with one pos
sible exception, have died with tbe dis
ease, it being in a mild form. Several
have been seriously ill. At present
time there are one or two cases that are
critical. After a thorough examination
we unqualifiedly pronounce tbe disease
to be smallpox in the discreet, or mild
form, with nobyuip'.um lacking to make
the diagnosis absolutely certain.

Never Failed
Mr. C. S. Peaslec, the well-Vnown druggist of
Morgan CityLa., is highly thought of in his neigh
borhood because of his skill and care in tilling pre
scriptions. The best physicians in the place send
their paticntstohis store whenever they can. Any
thing which Mr. Peaslee may say can be depended
upon absolutely, la a letter to W. H. Hooker &
Co., New York City, proprietors of Acker's English
Remedy, he says. In all my many years' experi
ence as a druggist, I have never handled a medi
cine of any nature that gave such complete satis
faction as Acker s English Remedy for Throat
riuI Lung Troubles. I have sold hundreds of
bottles, and have yet to learn of a single case
wnerc ie rauea 10 cure, in
croup, it nets with a cer
tainty that is really mar
velous. My wife 'Yes not

cine, but she lli-S involute

Remedy, alwavs h v it
at her elbow 11 .-ft he
children are o icu'si-.l by
croup at night, ii is a
positively harmless rem
edy, as I can personally
testify. I know of a little
girl who accidentally drank a whole bottle. She was, of course, sick at her
stomach lor a short time, but the sickness passed away, and then the child was
in better health than ever before. I can understand why Acker's English Rem
edy is so cflicacious, because 1 am a druggist. It is not a mere expectorant,
but a strengthening, invigorating tonic as well. While it heals the irritations
of the mucous membrane, it also builds up tbe constitution and purifies tho
blood. 1 endorse it absolutely."
