TUESDAY, - - FEBRUARY 12, 1895 A FLAT FAIL VRE. Mr. Corbett'e dinner is liable to be come historical as a failure.: ' That Mr. Corbett had a right to give a dinner to the members of the legislature, nobody will deny; and that Mr. Corbett's mo tives were not evil, most will admit, Mr. Corbett is an honorable gentleman, -with more brains than judgment, and more hospitality than taste. That his dinner was attended by only one-third of the members of the legislature was due, not to any dislike of Mr. Corbett, not to any suspicion of his having any sinister designs upon the members of that body, but because, under the cir cumstances, his invited guests could not put their feet under his mahogany, or their vests outside of his wine, with out' making themselves liable to criti ciem, however undeserved. The public could see no reason , for Mr. Corbett's dinner party, hence ascribed his hospi tality to some motive, which, because hidden, was believed to be evil. The people of these days contrive to do some thinking for themselves. They have on many occasion noted the rela tionship between wine sappers and leg islation, and have learned that bills passed by the influence of champagne were generally in the interests of the par ties who paid for the wine, instead of the parties who elected the legislators, Those who remained away from Mr, Corbett's wine avoided the appearance of evil, at least, and not only that, bat turning their attention to legislative work, performed the duties for which they were elected. Whatever Mr. Cor bett's object was, the presence of but twenty-six out of ninety invited guests stamps it as a flat failure ; or, to use the society term eo numerous since Ward McAllister gave it the sanction of bis approval, a defunct "function." OFFER TO SETTLE. The defeat of the Reilly funding bill, which proposed to give the Union and Central Pacific Railroad Companies for ever and some time after in which to settle with the government, or rather to give them 50 years in which they might make up their minds whether they would pay or not, has set the directors of those roads thinking to some purpose, They owe the government in round num bers $64,000,000 principal and $75,000,000 interest. The defeat of the Reilly bill has caused a sudden discovery among the bosses, who a few days ago were de claring their bankruptcy their inability to pay more than one per cent a year of the principal that tbey can dig up and pay over to the government $64,000,000 cash, if it will release.. its claim on the road. r i , i There is reason in this sudden offer to pay. Should the government conclude to foreclose and then operate the road it would hurt all the others, and espec ially injure the Southern Pacific, which was built with the stealings from the Central Pacific, and which belongs to Crocker, Huntington et al. If the gov ernment has the honesty and backbone' to stand up to these people and . say -tinner pay your entire debt, or we will take charge of the road and operate it," the Pacific railroad question will be settled. The companies will pay before . they will allow the government to own and operate a road in the interests of the people. , Besides this, under the laws of Call fornia, where the Central Pacific was in corpora ted, the government can collect its debt from Huntington, Crocker, Stan ford and that gang in 1911, at which time the corporation terminates. CORPORATION GRATITUDE. The Southern Pacific Railroad Com pany, during the strike at Sacramento, was protected by the United States troops. As the troops were scattered along the line, there were some who in the demands upon their time, had no time to cook their rations. They were ' invited by Superintendent Willis to eat at the company's restaurants. When the strike was settled, the company pre. eented a bill to the government amount ing to some $3,000 for the meals eaten as aforesaid. . The government having supplied the men rations, refused to pay the bill, and now the railroad company is taking steps to collect it from the sol diers, and Lieut. Gorin has been de tailed to investigate the matter, and if it is found that ' the men ate the meals, he is ordered to keep it out of their com pany funds. The boys in blue will no doubt take a deep interest in protecting more railroad property should another strike occur. Recently a farmer in Indiana con cluded to sell his farm and move to town. The buyer was found and the price agreed upon, and the deed prop erly drawn up, when an unexpected ob stacle presented itself. The wife posi tively refused to sign the deed. When the lawyer who bad the matter in charge began to argue the case with her, she said she' thought part of the money for the farm should be given to her for her own. When asked how much she thought she ought to have, she said, "I think I ought to have at least $2." The money was given her and she signed the deed with the remark that that was the first money she ever had in her life to do as she pleased with. The balance, $35,998, was paid to the hasbadd and pocketed by him. This would be funny if it were not so pathetic, for the inci dent is supported by evidence that shows it to be an actual occurrence, We do not feel like adding a moral of any kind, for the story carries its own moral' Baker City Democrat. The railroad commissioners will prob ably hang on to their job, and if so a lot of legislators ought to be hung along side of them, making one job of the whole business. The spectacle is 'one to cause nothing but contempt for politics and politicians of all parties and degrees Every man in the legislature except the hold-oyer senators, was elected on a platform pledging him to abolish the railroad commission. Will it be done? The Ranier Review, which made its first appearance last Friday, is the last candidate for pnbiic favor In Oregon It is published, as its name indicates, at Ranier, a few miles below St. Helens, and is filled with interesting matter concerning that section. Free silver and Thomas Paine are the two subjects just now causing the Ore- gonian a great deal of worry. It seems plausible at least that the free silver caused the Paine. Ten days loss of time on account of sickness and a doctor bill to pay, is any thing but pleasant for a man of a family to contemplate, whether he is a laborer, mechanic, merchant or publisher. Jas. O. Jones, publisher of the Leader Mexia, Texas, was sick in bed for ten days with the grip during its prevalence a year or two ago. Later in the season be had a second attack. He says: "in the latter case I used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy with considerable sue cess, I think, only being in bed a little over two days. The second attack. I am satisfied would have been equally as bad as the first butfortheuse of this rem edy." It should be borne in mind that tne grip is mucn tne same as a very severe cold and requires precise! the same treatment. When you wish to cure a cold quickly and effectually give this remedy a trial. 50 cent bottles for sale by Blakeley & Houghton Druggists Little Dick Mamma was readin something about a heroine.

' of all cases of consumption can, if taken in the earlier stages of the disease, De cured. This may seem like a bold assertion to those familiar onlv with the means gener ally in use for its treatment ; as, nasty cod liver oil and its filthy emulsions, extract of malt, whiskey, different preparations of nypopaospmies ana uuca ukc paiezuftves. Although by many believed to be incura ble, there is the evidence of hundreds of living witnesses to the fact that, in all its earlier stages, consumption is a curable disease. Not every case, but a large per centage of cases'aaA we believe, fully 98 per cent, are curea Dy ur. jp lerce's uoiaen Medical Discovery, even after the disease has progressed so far as to induce repeated bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering cough with copious expectoration (includ ing tubercular matter), ereat loss of flesh and extreme emaciation and weakness. Do you doubt that hundreds of ssch cases reported to us as cured by Uolden Med ical Discovery " were genuine cases of that dread and fatal disease ? You need not take our word for it. They have, in nearly every instance, been so pronounced Dy the Dest and most experienced home physicians, who have no interest whatever in mis representing them, and who were often strongly prejudiced and advised against a trial of ' Golden Medical Discovery," but who have been forced to confess that it surpasses, in curative oower over this fatal malady, all other medicines with which thev are acquainted. . Nastv cod. liver oil and its filthy "emulsions" and mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these cases and had either utterly failed to bene fit, or had only seemed to benefit a little for a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey, and various preparations of the hypophos vhites had also been faithfully tried in vain. The photographs of a large number of those cured of consumption, bronchitis. lingering- coughs, asthma, chronic- nasal catarrh -and kindred maladies, have been skillfully reproduced - in a book of .160 pages -which will be mailed to you, on re ceipt of address and six cents in stamps.
