A Common Cold
Ia often the beginning of serious affec
tions of tho Throat, Bronchial Tubes,
and Lungs. Therefore, tbe importance
of early and effective treatment cannot
bo overestimated. Aycr's Cherry Pec
toral may always bo relied upon for the
speedy cure of a Cold or eough.
Last January I was" attacked with a
sevore Cold, which, by neglect and fre
quent exposures, became worse, finally
settling on my lungs. A terrible cough
soon followed, accompanied by pains in
tho chest, from which I suffered intense
ly. After trying various remedies, with
out obtaining rolief, I commenced taking
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, and was
Speedily Cured.
I am satisfied that this remedy savod my
life. Jno. 'Webstor, Pawtucket, It. I.
I contracted a scvero cold, which
suddenly developed into Pneumonia,
presenting dangerous and obstinato
symptoms. My physician ordered tho
use of Aycr's Cherry Pectoral. His in
structions wcro followed, ami tho rosult
was :i rapid and permanent cure.
H. E. Stimpson, Rogers Prairie, Tex.
Two years ago I suffered from a severe
Cold, which settled on mv Luncs. I con
sulted various physicians, and took tho
medicines thoy prescribed, but received
only temporary relief. A friond induced
me to try Ayer's Cherry Pectoral. After
taking two bottles of this medicine I was
cured. Since then I have given tho Pec
toral to my children, and consider it
The Best Remedy
for Colds, Coughs, and all Throat and
Lung diseases, ever used in my family.
Robert Vanderpool, Meadvilfe, Pa.
Somo timo ago I took a slight Cold,
which, being neglected, grew worse, and
settled on my Lungs. 1 hail a hacking
cough, and was very weak. Those who
know me best considered my life to bo
in great danger. I continued to suffer
until I commenced using Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral. Loss than one bottlo of this
valuable mcdicino cured me, and I
feel that I owe tho preservation of my
life to its curative powers. Mrs. Ann
Lock wood, Akron, New York.
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral is considered,
here, the one great remedy for all diseases
of tho throat and lungs, and is mora

Tho eclipse was visible to all whose
optics were not eclipsed.
Josiah Bradford, of Jimmy creek,
has been confined to his bed by sellouts
illness the past week.
W. J. Snodgrass, of La Grnnde, was
in town on Wednesday, on business.
Geo. Bobier has purchased Mr. Far

Mr. Shell owns a small fruit farm

Dave Beverage's museum still con
tinues to be an attraction. The latest

Mr. Brack Utz came down from
Ililgard and remained until after the
Nw Year's bull.
Robt. Lloyd and wife went to Telo-
casct, yesterday, to attend a brother's
wedding at that place.
The O. It. & N. Co. have a force of men
at work here taking out ice for the
summer'i consumption on their lines.
That petition is here asking for a
re-location of the county seat. North
Powder wants it and needs it badly in
her business. Corner lots are advan
cing (m an undue growth of sage
brush) in anticipation of a change.
Recently a camp of chicken boodlers
wai iummarily broken up by the un
expected appearance of the owners
claiming them out on a foul.
Morris Levy left for Baker on Tues
day where he accepts a position in his
uncle's store. "Mase" has been em
ployed by Messrs. Gorham it Roth
child, of this place, for the past two
years and has given general satisfac
tion to the firm as well as patrons of
the business who wish him success in
his new surroundings.
"Coming events cast their shadows
before" so Madam Rumor says a well
known merchant and an estimable
widow will unite hands and fortunes
ere tho frost is gone.
All day long, Monday, trains and
teams brought people in from all over
the country and when Spencer's capa
cious dancing hall was thrown open
for the military ball, to commence at
about 8 o'clock in the evening, every
available space was occupied and
standing room was at a premium.
The merry dancers thronging the floor
were too numerous to make dancing
comtortaule, but as niglit wore on a
portion of the throng disappeared and
more space was available. The deco
rations were handsome, consisting of
evergreens, flags, bunting and mottoes,
one of tho latter being "A welcome to
our guests and a happy New Year."
A splendid supper was served at the
North Powder hotel by Mrs. Richard
son, filling her spacious dining hall
four diiferent times ere tho dancer
had appeased their hunger. Tho re
ceipts amounted to upwards of $200,
and after paying all expenses the com
mittee turned over to "k" company s
treasurer the handsome sum of $05 net
profits. Our guests were somo ten
couples from Baker, Mr. Neil and oth
er parties from Union, a few from La
Grande, and a large number from
Haines and vicinity, to all of whom
and to every patron of the ball an ex
pression of gratitude is tendered by
the committee in generously aiding us
in making more than a success of our
first attempt in tho way of a military
hop and of aid financially, of which
the company is so much in need.

A Quaer Find.
Messrs. Coltharp and Brown, placer
mining on Snake river near Salmon
falls, last week unearthed a complete
skeleton of an elephant or mastodon.
It was hurried about twenty feet under
ground. The place had at ono lime,
evidently been a whirlpool or eddy of
the river. Many large bones have been
found there but this last discovery was
a perfect skeleton, it having without
doubt been deposited there while the
hide was yet intact. It was about
sixteen feet long, and it is estimated
that the pile of bones would weigh
3000 pounds or more. Tho tusks were
between six and seven feet long. The
tusks and some of the huge molars and
other bones were preserved, but it was
impossible to save the skeleton entire,
as soon after it was exposed it began
to crumble. Shoshone Journal.

Water for stoek getting warre, ow
ing to the coKl, dry weather.
The days are gaining one moment
off the long Lights.
It is a mistake to suppose that no
good comes of the doubters, the agita
tors, the restless ones of this life. An
honest doubter may find out. some
thing new, but a blind believer will
move on content with the old ways
and old thoughts. Brand not the
man who ditl'ers from us as insincere,
or foolish, or dangerous. Weigli well
the thoughts he suggests and be active.
If a fellow di tiers from you, be not
angry with him, but set about to de
termine if he have aught of truth or if
yon be in any way in enor.
What is tho seno of all these Pro
fessors and other fellows getting them
selves out of breath prospecting on the
weather? It ia not only tirtd-clnvH
noneiiH but positive injury. Their
piedictions are mere guess work and
little el-e. A giv;
storm is predicted
between certain dates, or soon utter,
or just before, and no place in particu
lar is speeiliod. It will either be a
blizzard or a snow storm or some Mich
occurrence. Such warning may
cause M)tue people to eloso up tho
cellar windows anil have two days
wood cut ahead, but it hinders busi
ness, consumes space in the papers
that have no other news to put before
their leaders, and is a nuisance on
general principles.
In deciding what paper to take for
the new year, ask yourself this qtios
tion : Should 1 not take tho homo
paper? There will come up this
course of reasoning to everyone: Its
owners are my associates; they do
business among us and turn ten or
more thousand dollars over each year
in our country ; they bring this mon
ey, much of it, from abroad; they have,
frequently made pleasant mention of
myself or some friend or relative; their
success is our gootl, for a clean paper,
well supported, is a power for good in
every community. Let ua take the
home paper, Tin: Oiti:uo.v Scout.
It is said there is a man in La
Grande so stingy that when he puts a
silver dollar in. his pocket the eaglo on
it screams out the lines of the familiar
hymn, "Farewell vain world, I'm go
ing home," and this man is the agita
tor of tin's county scat movement.
The fanners of this county have a bur
densome tax as it is, and unless thoy
prefer their taxes doubled they had
better steer clear of all petitions ask
ing for a vote to move our county
seat. If the move is ever made the
tax-payers will have to foot the bills,
tho piomiso to tho contrary notwith
standing, and don't you doubt it for a
moment either. Wo saw that tried
on one time to tho tune of seventy
five thousand dollars, and the people,
paid for their folly. This ir, a parallel
case in every way, and it is to be hoped
that the sensible tax-payers of Union
county will let well enough alone.

Tho following account of a law suit
commenced by W. J. Snotlgrass, of La
Grande, against Carey it Bro., stock
buyers of Cheyenne, is taken from a.
late number of the Livestock Journal:
"A case which has excitetl general in
terest among stockmen, was that of
Snodgrass vs Carey it Bro which has
occupied tho past week in the district
court and was settled by tho verdict of
the jury on Monday last.
It seems that in tho year 1881 Mr.
Snotlgrass had some cattlo on tho
range tho number of which ho special
ly statetl as 2,028, which ho sold to J.
M. Carey it Bro. A contract was
drawn up in which tho number and
several brands of tho cattlo wero
minutely tlescribed. And in Juno
1881, tho contract was signed by J. M.
Carey it Bro., who agreed to take tho
cattlo at tho stipulated price, $51,000.
Ah soon as possible (as was claimed by
tho defentlonts) the country wuh thor-
t miKhly worked and only .'100 head wero.
found of the 2,028 head bargained for.
Up to this timo $17,000, of tho pur
chase price has been paid to Mr. Snod
grass, leaving balance duo him of $11,
G00, which upon Caroy it Bro., refus
ing to pay, ho entered suit with inter
est. Tho ovitlenco showed that only .100
wero found, and that tho remainder
wcio not in existence; that tho sur
rounding country had been thorough
ly worked as soon as practicable ; that
tho contract warranted all in exsist
ence at the timo of the sale, and had
this number been in cxistanco a ma
jority would surely havo boon found
instead of about one-ninth of tho num
ber. Tho court hold that tho contract was a.
warranty for tho cattlo, and that if any
of tho cattlo wero missing tho warran
ty was broken. Tho defendant
brought evidence to prove tho number
found and tho manner in which the
range was worked. After much argu
ment tho case went to tho jury, who,
after deliberating about an hour, in
stead of finding for tho plaintiff, re
turned a verdict fur the defendants in
the sum of $:12,000."
