M-3 Mr. AVER'S HAIR VIGOR "Nearly forty years ago, after some weeks of sickness, my liair turned'gray and began falling out so rapidly that I was threatened with immediate baldness. Hearing Ayer's Hair Vigor highly spoken of, I commenced using this prepara- tmu-:i, - .... ,.1.-,. . ; t,.;j:x tion, and was so well satisfied with the result that I have never tried any other kind of dressing. It stop ped the hair from falling out, stimu lated a new growth of hair, and kept the scalp free from dandruff. Only an occasional application is now needed to keep my hair of good natural color. I never hesitate to recommend any of Ayer's medicines to my friends." Mrs. II. 51. II aigi: Avoca, Neb. AycrVllair Vipr PKFI'AI.EI) IV BR. J. C. AVER & CO., LOWELL, ftlASS.. 0. S. A. Ayer'a Sarsaparitla llenurvcs l'imvlra. A Voice from Hood Iilrer. Hood River, April 29, 1896. Editor Chronicle : - After having carefully read Senator Mitchell's reply to Mr. Mac Allister and others, I find myself but little wiser than before, as it is simply a reiteration of Mrfjor Post's statements from begin ning to end. Three points, however, are quite pronounced. First, that fifty . thousand dollars unexpended balance miraculously disappeared while the gov ernment was signing a draft on the treasury for f 20,000- of it, and Mr. Day was in Washington to (How could it have happened.) Second, Mr. Mitchell -says the $179,000 appropriation is sure to stick and become a law. My recol lections is Major Post said the govern nent owed the Davs $200,000, so that there would still be a deficiency of $21, 000, and no side walls built. Lastly, that an investigation is badly needed Instead of. the government holding back a ten per cent guarantee, Mr. Day has reversed the situation and holds a twenty per cent club over the govern ment's head, and as security has posses sion of the locks. "What fools we mor tals be !" Doea our delegation believe we can be longer deceived? Twenty thousand dollars forsooth to complete the locks, with Mr. Day's $200,000 be bind, and not a school boy in Wasco . county but knows that half a million in clear, money will not more than com plete the job. Twenty thousand dollars would not buy a, plaster for Mr. Day's shins. But unlike The Chronicle, I have no particular fault to find with Mr. Day Mr. Day did not come to the Locks for hie health nor recreation. The trouble is elsewhere. With the citizens of East ern Oregon, in the first place, in not letting well enough alone. In substitut ing a contractor for the government, a party was introduced whose business it was to make money out of the job. ' The engineers were not done away with. Their duties are just the same, contract' or or no contractor. The contractor is merely a complication - The echo of the whole matter is heard - in the appropriation of $100,000 to the O. R. & N. Co. for a right ot way for the ship railway over a route that is not ' sufficiently wide for their own roadbed, while on the Washington side there is ample room above all high water, and ' do railroad to interfere with. Let our" outgoing delegation solve the mystery and get a violent move on, or they will find other corns and bunions tripping up and down the congressional corridors in their number 11 gaiters The election is close at hand. Take beed to yourselves. Citizen. lJid not the writer refer to Capt Fieke instead of Major Post, when the latter's name was need above? Ed. .

The open" letter addressed to Hon. Robert Mays, the Republican candidate for county judge, was received by Thk Chboniole this morning. It ia needlees to say that Mr. Mays is in favor of free roads and would never, while he is county judge, favor any proposition to make Tygh grade a toll road. Mr. Mays published in yesterday's Chronicle a denial of any such rumor. We re-publish this denial so that it may appear as an answer to the letter from Wamic re ceived today. ' Wamic, Or., April 27, 1896. To Hon. Robert Alavs: Dear Sir: It is reported, and exten sively circulated by certain parties in this part of the county, that should you be elected conntv indge of Wasco county at the June election, you would use your influence, and work to make a toll road nf the Grade on the countv road running from Tygh Valley to The Dalles, said grade known as the Tygh hill grade. The question is, will you, if elected, favor or aid the making of that certain grade a toll road? Please answer through- the Weekly Chronicle "Yes" or."No." The voters will then know how you stand on the road question, and can vote more intel ligently for their best interest. Yours respectfully, John End. Editor Chronicle: There is a re port in circulation in the southern part of the county that I am in favor of mak ing the Tygh Hill grade a toll road. Such is not the case, and if I am elected county judge the people interested in the matter can feel assured that I will not allow any toll roads made on Tygb Hill during my term of office. Robt. Mays. A Letter From Congieagman Kills. Captain John W.Lewis received today the following letter troin Congressman Ellis, which just at this time is full of interest to the people of Eastern Oregon. Congressman Ellis corroborates the statements made by Senator Mitchell. Washington, D. C, April 25, 1896. My Dear Captain: ' Yours of the 18th inst. received and contents noted. The resolution making the $20,000 immediately available was prepared by the engineers department with the full understanding with the delegation that it would be used for the purpose of doing the woric necessary io open the. iocks at once, senator mu chell yesterday got an amendment on the sundry civil bill, making $zu,uuu oi the $179,796, immediately available for the work, and it will no doubt become a law and will surely be used for the pur pose of doing the work necessary to open the locks at once. And it will not pe used for another purpose. Any one in any way connected with any of the com mittees or the departments Having tnis matter in charge will bear me out in saying the delegation nas lost no op portunity to push the matter, we win continue to do so notwithstanding the fact some gentlemen, no doubt, would be willing to have us fail, if they thought we would suffer bv that failure, even though the country did lose heavily. Assuring you that the whole delegation ib alive to this interest, and as anxious as anv of our constituents can be for the early completion of the locks, and will leave no opportunity un improved to burry the matter along. 1 am vours sincereiv, W.R.Ellis. During their annual sale, Pease & Mays were compelled to discontinue the photographic tickets, but persons now holding them can present them for can cellation as before. apr25-lw , TAKE STEPS In time, if you are a suf ferer from that scourge of humanity known aa consumption, and you can be cured.

Nasty cod- liver oil und its filthy "emulsions" and mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these nuen 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 hypo- phosphites had also been faithfully tried tn 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 rrint of address and six cents in stamps.
