Peoria (111.) Herald: When Alger
violated the rules of common decency
bv publishing a private letter he had
received from Colonel Roosevelt no
one waa greatly surprised. The man
was known and little was expected of
him. It was in keeping with the
character of the man whose. agents
had met the colored delegates to a re
publican national convention and
bought them for so much" a head. It
was entirely in accord with the career
of the man who had resigned in the
face of the enemy during the civil
war.
Joseph A. Wilson.of Hood River.who
returned last week from Dawson City,
has kiudly mailed this office two copies
of the Klondike Nugget, a handsome
four column semi weekly sheet of Daw
son City. Both papers openly accuse
the gold commissioner of the district
of beingiin league with a gang of graft
ers whoopenly and villainously swindle
prospectors but of their lawful right of
recording claims. But the feature in
the little sheet oi chief est interest to
the country newspaperman, and one
which makes his teeth drop liquid tor
rents of envy is that the subscription
price of the Nugget is $24 per annum,
payable, not in decayed vegetables,
rancid butter or stale eggs, but in gold
coin or its equivalent in gold dust.

A Dalles Merchaut Bunkoed.
A thoroughly up-to-date scheme for
obtaining money was played success
fully on an East End merchant yester
day. A little sawed-off Dutchman en
tered the merchant's store and broke
out voluminously in praise of the effi
ciency of the sheriff and his deputy,
They had just done the finest piece of
detective work he had ever known in
his life. The Dutchman had slept the
night before at the Columbia hotel,
and while asleep, a fellow had crept
into his room and abstracted $72 from
his pants pockets every cent he had
in the world. The sheriff was promptly
notified and in a marvelously short
time had traced the thief three stations
up the road and had him under arrest.
He had just got a dispatch to that ef
fect and wanted a dollar and a half to
pay his fare up to where the fellow
was, so as to identify him. He would
be back on the next train and would
repay the money with thanks. The
merchant had got deeply interested in
the Dutchman's story. His big heart
went out in sympathy, aud witn it the
sum asked for dropped into the Dutch
man's hand. A few hours afterwards
Deputy Sheriff Sexton was passing the
merchant's door, the merchant bailed
him cheerily and slapoed him kindly
on the shoulder said: "Sexton Fin
proud of you fellows, by George. That
was a mighty fine piece of detective
work, catching the fellow who stole
the Dutchman's money." "How is
that," asked Mr. Sexton. I baven'i
heard of it." "Haven't heard of it!"
gasped the merchant. "Is it possible
that there is a mistake?'' Aud sure
enough there was; the sheriff was tele
phoned to- He knew nothing about
it. Mr. Toomey was asked about it-
Nobody had lost any money in his
house, and then the truth dawned with
full force on the merchant that ue bad
been delightfully buncoed out of his
money. Ad effort was made to find
the Dutchman' but be had left for
parts unknown
I
Official Rascality on the Yukon.
Theodore Liebe of Portland, and
brother of Judge Liebe of .this city, is
iu town visiting his brother and will
remain here till Mouday. M-. Liebe
recently returned from the Yukon
country whither he went last Spring.
He is fully assured that there is plenty
of gold there, and quite as much on the
American side as on the Canadian.
As between the two districts or rather
the government of them, Mr. Liebe is
enthusiastic in the praise of the Amer
ica u, with him it is and always will be
God's country. The Canadian officials
are a set of unconscionable thieves, j
No man has a bit of thow with tbem ;
unless through the channel of bribery.
When the Minion Creek excitement
broke out he saw 200 persons standing
n a row, day after day, awaiting the'r
turn to enter claims. The officials would
ask so many questions that not more
than fifteen would succeed daily in the
regular way. But it was a common
thing to see a common harlot or black
leg enter by a side door and by bribing
the officials, return with a certificate
in a few minutes. He knew a poor
fellow who bad rafted a big lot of logs
from seventy miles above the river.
An official arrested him, claiming the
logs had been cut on the lands of John
Doe, or somebody equally imaginary.
The poor fellow was glad to purchase
his liberty by giving one half of his
raft to the man who arrested him.
Mr. Liebe knew another man who had
a piece of moose that he had shot on
the trail. Moose and caribou were the
common flesh food of the Dawsonites
at the time. The man had no friends
and no money to biibe his captors, so
they sentenced him U. two years at
hard labor. Mr. Liebe secured some
promising' claims in American terri
tory and expects to return and de
velop them in the spring.

The Antelope Fair.
E. J. Glisan, manager of the fair to
bo given Oct. 13, Hand 15,at Antelope,
by the Stockmen's union, is in the city
perfecting arrangements for the fair.
No efforts are being spared to make it
a succe e. A large exhibit of thorough
bred cattle and sheep is expected, be
sides hogs, poultry and wool. For the
best in each class liberal cash prem
iums will be paid. The main object of
the fair is to bring together buyers
and producers of fine cattle, " horses,
sheep and wool. Trials of speed will
be a prominent feature of the fair for
which the Uniou has provided a splen
did race track. In addition to ot her
liberal purses, a special purse of $600
will be given to Gilliam county horse
men in a free for all half-mile running
race. Gilliam county, it appears, has
five racers whose comparative speed
has never been definitely settled. Tb
race alone is certain to be of intense
interest to Gilliamites, and is expected
to draw a large crowd from that pros
perous county. The Antelope people
deserve the highest praise for their
enterprise in connection with this fair
If half, the zeal that the Antelopers
have, were poseessed by the people
tributary to The Dalies fair, the pavil-
lion would not hold the exhibits nor
the fair grounds the people. Mr. Glisan
made arrangements- this afternoon
with Secretary Fred Wilson for the at
tendance at the fair of the members of
the executive committee of the Ore

ranch near the free bridge on the De

to measure one million feet of lumber
are now on the banns of the Matoles
awaiting rafting. These will be put in
the river in the near future and the
experiment of rafting on the Deshutes
tried for all. that it is worth. "The
logs will come," as Mr. Vanderpool said
to a Times-Mountaineer reporter. " We
have already sunk"$5,OC0in the scheme
and they have got to come. But whether
it will be a paying project remains to
be seen. We have a saw mill ready to
be shipped to the Harris place on
short notice and wb en successful raft
ing is assured the mill will be started
and run for all there is in it."

The Mother's Fay Day.
What nav 5rie9 a liaid-wtorkinir mother of
a family receive for her labor at the end of a
week ? The husband may
bring: borne his regular
waees. borne of the child
ren may be old
enough to earn
theirs. But the
mother, what in
her pay for her
days of toil and
often nights of
anxiety f Wei!
she is either
paid in love or
she isn't paid
at an.
The majority
ox mothers are
perfectly satis-
tied Witt, fit
fimple recompense of loving: appreciation.
If any mother doesn't receive that much,
it's an awful pity.
It's a sad thing when the mother comes
down sick with overwork or worry, or be
cause some little weakness or disease has
been neglected until it gets to be alarming.
It should never be allowed to get to this
point. She ought to be looked after right
away. She needs the help of common sense
medical treatment. Of course no one medi
cine will cure everything. A medicine must
be specially adapted to its particular purpose.
If the digestive organs or the liver are out
of order Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery is a perfect and scientific remedy.
His "Favorite Prescription" is specially
devised for weaknesses and diseases of the
womanly orgaus; and it is the most potent
remedy for these troubles which lias evei
been invented. '
Where both these conditions exist these
two medicines taken alternately constitute
a thoroughly scientific coarse of treatment,
which has been marvelously successful with
thousands of dyspeptic, debilitated and
nervous women.
" I take great pleasure in recommending Dr.
Pierce' Favorite Prescription. 'Golden Medical
Discover ' and Pellets,' ' writes Mrs. Jed Law
rence, Sooth Hero, Grand Isle Co.. Vt " My
trouble was female weakness, kidney disease,
neuralgia, change of life and had flowing pells,
I took eight bottles of Dr. Pierce's Favoi ..e Pre
scription, seven bottles of 'Golden Medical Dis
covery, and aeven small vial of ' Pellets.' The
-doctors did not help me any. I could not sleep
night nor day. - i sunereu everytnmg neiore i
began to take Dr. Pierce's medicines. When I
befntn to use them X weighed 100 pounds. Now I
weigh M5 pound. I caa now do all my work,"

N B. Myers waa examined before
Justice Bayard . yesterday for the
larceny of a watch and chain, hand
kerchief, a pair of suspenders and a
pair of scissors which he was charged
with having stolen 'last Friday from
the residence of Walter Odell who
lives on the other side of Lower Fifteen
Mile. Meyers had been working for a
few days for Odell in the capacity of
cook for a threshing crew when be
committed the crime and skipped
without warning. He was arrested
here by Marshal Lauer. The scissors
were found in the pocket of a vest he
bad pawned at a harber's shop for a
shave. It was proved that Meyers
had tried to sell the watch at Mr.
Clarke 's jewelery store in the East End
and the suspenders a pair of eilk ones
valued at S3 at Charley Frank's
saloon, although neither have been
found at this writing. Meyers was held
to appear before the grand jury in
the sum of $100.

THAT no one remedy can contain the
elements necessary to cure all diseas
es, is a fact well known to everyone.
Dr. Miles' System of Restorative Kennedies
consists of seven distinctively different
preparations, each for its own purpose.
Mrs. L. C. Bramley, 37 Henry St., St. Cath
erines, Ontario, writes: "For years I suf
fered from extreme nervousness and annoy
ing constipation, developing in to palpitation
and weakness of the heart. I was unable to
sleep, suffered much from headache, pain in i
my ieii siue, paipiiAiiou anu a constant
feeling of weakness and prostration. I began
using Dr. Miles' Kervine, Hoart Cure and
Nerve and Liver Fills and the Anti-Pain
Fills to relieve sudden paroxysms of pain
and headache. I soon felt much improved
and the pains and aches and weariness left
me. I then took Dr. Miles' Restorative
Tonic and am now restored to my former
good health."

Internal Revenue Receipts.
The internal revenue covering July.
August and Sebtember for this year
amounts to more than the whole of
last year, whisb was $3(52,904.81.
The great increase is due, of course,
to the war-tax revenues. However,
all lines show an added volume of busi
ness. Collector Dunne says be is
having very little trouble with the
druggists. They are complying with
the law in every detail, and what ap
peared to be a great difficulty in over
coming has simmered down to nothing.
The violation waa doe more to igno
rance than anything else.
The collector has a great deal of cor
respondence with Alaska, as his district-includes
that territory.
