It is too late to get an Abstract of Title to a piece of

S judgements and tax liens agaiust it. The proper thing to J
do is to have the
LINCOLN COUNTY ABSTRACT COMPANY,

In combination, proportion nnd
process Hood's Sarsapurilla is peculiar
to itself, and unequalled in true merit.
No other medicine ever possessed so
much curative power, or readied such
enormous sales, or made such won
derful cures, as Hood's Sarsaparilla.
It is undoubtedly the best medicine
ever made to purify, vitalize and en
rich the blood.
That is the secret of its succefcs.
Read this statement:
" When my son was 7 years of age, be
bad rheumatic fever and acute rheuma
tism, which settled in his left hip. He
was so sick that no one thought there was
any help for him. Five sores broke out
on bis thigh, which the doctor said were
Scrofula
ores. We had three different doctors.
Pieces of bone came out of the sores. The
last doctor said the leg would have to be
eut open and the bone scraped, before he
could get well. Howard became so low
that he would eat nothing, and one doc
tor said there was no chance for him.
" Cun uy, a lifewapipor rccommocJIn;
Hood's Barsaparilla was left at our door.
We decided to try this medicine. Howard
commenced taking it the last of February,
after having been sick tor a year and a
Cured
half. He hadn't taken it a week before I
saw that his appetite began to improve,
and then he gained rapidly. I gave him
five bottles, when the sores were all healed
and they never broke out again. The
crutches he had need for four years were
laid aside, as he had no further use for
them. I give all the credit to Hood's Bar
Baparllla," Mrs. Ada L. Moody, Fay
Street, Lynn, Mass.
This nnd many similar cures prove that

Sarsaparilla
Is the One True Blood Purifier. AUdrugglsts. tt

For Silver or Gold
What Tom Tongue Thought of
Free Silver in 1894.
NOW IT'S "GOLD STANDARD."
Two years ago Tom Tongue did
not have the nomination of any par
ty for congress so he had an opin
ion of his own on the money ques
tion. It was a good one. Here it
is: '
Hillsboro, Or., Nov. 3, 1894.
To the Editor: I have read with
some care your editorials in today's
Oregonian, as well as the one of a
few days ago, in which you depict
the terrible consequences of either
the free coinage of silver, orcoiuage
of the product of our own mines.
It is to be inferred from these
articles that the Oregonian favors
the present coinage law of the
United States, and is ready to
wield its powerful influence in favor
of their continuance. L,et us look
at those laws squarely and see
what they are and where they are
leading us. Heretofore our silver
mines have been a vast source of
wealth; they have furnished em
ployment to thousands of men, who
became consumers of the products
of the labor of others, and have
furnished a good share of the in
creased circulation needed by a
constantly expanding population
do its increasing business. Nearly
all of this has been overthrown by
legislation in the last year. We
have reached a condition unknown
to our previous history. Our silver
mines are absolutely worthless to
us as producers of money metal.
If run to their full capacity, not one
ounce of their products could pass
through the mints of the United
States, or get into circulation among
our citizens as money. Not a dol
lar of additional silver can get into
circulation as money, except by
redeeming a treasury note. When
the silver is got out the treasury
note is redeemed and destroyed,
and the circulation remains the
same. A vast amount of silver
money is lost and destroyed every
year by abrasion and by accident,
and there is no way to supply the
loss. Constantly increasing popu
lation demands increased silver
circulation and the demand is
ignored. On the contrary, as the
population increases, the silver coin,
by abrasion and destruction, con
stantly decreases. This will lead
inevitably, if long continued, to
gold monometalisni. With tariff
laws designed to increase our im
ports, while exportsare diminishing
enormously in value, the products
of our gold mines, inadequate even
to pay the interest on our public,
private and corporate indebtedness
to Europe, what will be the end?
And where will the supply of money
be obtained?
A continuance of this legislation
means constant contraction. Scarce
money means dear money, with in
creased purchasing power; it means
a decrease in the price of every
other species of property, real and
personal, in the country, and in the
city; it means decrease in the
wages of all classes of labor, skilled
and unskilled, manual and profes
sional. But worst of all it means
an enormous increase in indebted
ness of every class, puolic and
private, with diminished power to
pay. It means confiscation of the
property of the debtor, for the bene
fit of the creditor. It will make
the United States a paradise to the
class of people who are exclusive
creditor, but it will make it a hell
for everybody else. Even the
most generous and less exacting
creditors will suffer with the rest.
Having loaned his money on prop
erty with only a fair margin at old
time values, when the power of the
debtor to pay is taken away, he
finds himself compelled to take
property robbed of its value. That
it would be downright dishonesty to
legislate to enable the debtor to re-,
pubiatejust financial obligations,
is not disputed, but it is equally
dishonest, and productive of much
more hardship, to increase by legis
lation the obligations and burdens
of the debtor for the benefit of the
creditor.
It is easy of comprehension why
England the creditor nation of the
world, should favor contraction of
the world's money and a limitation
of money metal. Having no silver
mines of her own, and being a pur
chaser of both silver and food pro
ducts, it is equally easy of compre
hension why she should use every
effort of diplomacy and legislation
to diminish the value of both, but
why the United States, a debtor
nation, with extensive
!ver
md
vast stores of food products to sell,
should voluntarily assist in car
rying out the same policy, and
diminish the value of her own
resources, "passeth understand
ing." Unfortunately for the wel
fare of the country it contains too
many people who, surrounded by
huge blocks of well secured, inter-,:
est bearing obligations, are intes-"
ested in legislation that makes
money dear, and everything else
cheap; who, not engaged in pro
ductive industries themselves, are
anxious to secure the product of
the toil of others at the least pos
sible outlay. Unfortunately, also
in these "evil days" that have
befallen us, these men are power
ful in taking lessous of a hard
schoolmaster and are acquiring
some valuable experience. This is
about the only valuable thing we
are acquiring. When the change
comes, and when the American
producers supplying the American
markets when we cease to buy of
Europe what we can buy of our
selves, the same beneficial legisla-1
tion that brings about this result
applied to our silver mines, will
make of them hives of industry, fill
them with an army of men who will
purchase supplies at fair prices,
from men who are now standing
idle, while their families are hun
gry. As business and population
expand, our monetary needs will be
constantly supplied from silver
mines on American soil, owned by
American citizens, worked by
American miners, who in turn
supply their needs from the pro
duction of other American work
men. How this result, if accom
plished, placing in circulation the
entire product of our silver mines,
not needed for other uses, and will
not exceed probably 50 cents per
capita, will disturb business or com
merce or prove detrimental to our
financial system, I am at loss to see.
In this contest it is greatly to be
regretted that the Oregonian, right
upon so many questions, should, in
the opinion ofmanyofitsstaunchest
friends, be wrong upon this, should
throw the vast weight of its vast
influence upon the hand that, while
oppressing other people, bears with
equal hardship upon the proprietors
of the Oregonian. The heart of
the editor is generally in the right
place and sympathizesJwith those
who are wronged and 'oppressed,
and it ought to be so in this matter.
With the Oregonian on the right
side of this question, this entire
west would present a solid front
against those who are doing us
financial wrong and laying weary
burdens upon those least able to
bear them.

The McKinley club of Newport
had a red-hot debate at its last
meeting as to the advisability 01
putting Binger Hermann's name on
their tickets next June, whether or
no. We understand that the club
finally adjourned without decisive
action in the matter.
