In the matter of the tax levy for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 18!W, and ending July 1, 1809. It is ordered that there be levied on all taxable property both real and personal, in Orant county, on each and every dollar, for county purposes, 20 mills; and on each and every dollar for school purposes, 5 mills. i If the people of Orant county are not opposed to the losing of a large part of the county in the formation of a new county with Mitchell as county seat, and all the Greenhorn mining country iu the formation of a county with Sumpter as county seat, they have only to re main silent, and inside of two months the area of Orant county will be one-half of Its present size.

Ho informed a repre sentative of the Eagle when on his way home, that he expected to return to Long Creek In the near future and put in an exchange. 1 his new departure will be welcomed by the business men of this place, since it will do away with many inconveniences when they desire to use the line. J. Oarst, V. Ollieer and 8. Omcor, of Dayvllle, passed through Long Creek Wednesday en route to the gold fields at Atlln lake, Alaska. They wore joined at this place by E. Olllcor who ciune down from Snwinvlllo. The Atlln lake district is located in the interior about 80 miles from Hkagway. Gold was discovered in that locality during last season, and while the whole country In that vicinity has been staked off In claims, there has not been enough work done there to ascortalu the value on a small per cent of the located ground Yet it Is re ported quite rich and it is to be hoped that the Orant county boys will be able to return In a few years with evory pocket llued with yellow dust.

Whllo wheat is still M cents hero, the Com mercial Kovlew has the following concerning tho Portland market: The upward movement in Europe, which tarted just prior to the holidays, continued In motion until the present woek;when tho ad vance was checked, and an easier feeling set in and values fell off. The local situation has not has not been much all'ected either way, owing to the firmness of shipowners, who have In sisted on a portion at least of the advance In wheat abroad, At the same time, holders ol wheat consider themselves entitled to all the benefits from the appreciation In piices, result ing in a deadlock between buyers and sellers Borne unimportant sales were made during the week but holders still hold the extreme Ideas as to tho futuro, aud are disposed to hold back supplies, In the belief that Interest aud carrying charges will more than be offset by obtainable prlcoi a month or two hence. Stocks of wheat In warehouses hero are largo Indicating conclusively that exporters are un der no necessity to make new or Immediate purchases at the expense of values, and there Is absolutely no competition between shippers to bid on tho few parcels olftrlng Exporters are at all times In the market at full prices, but when the would-be seller expects towoikthe market at lc to 2c above values, he falls to And a purchaser.

They started their new happy life of love and hope together in a trim-hrighl-tinted little house that Htood back upon a terraced lawn. A smooth path led to the broad " stoop " and hospitable piazza. The long sweep of roof, the wide curving "bays" and the little western turret with oriel windows bespoke Atopic room and light and air and gorgeous mmsets. O, how they loved that little home I He was industrious, frugal, ambitious ; she a lender wife with a heart full of devotion ; and both of them determined at nny cost Df Struggle, oj aacrifice to earn and pay for this cherished dwelling place, and possess it as their very own ; a cosey nest in days of sunshine, a refuge iu time of trouble, a fireside, a home. HOW THOITHl.B CAME. At first it seemed smooth sailing. He was glad to work over time, and she being deft with needle and scissors helped the neighbors with their gowns. In such ways a few dollars were added to the small, home-making fund. Day after day, early and late, they earnestly planned and toiled, never realizing that they were going beyond their strength, until the little break downs began to come. Many a morning he would rise with his head feeling as he expressed it, "like a lump of lead," and no stomach for the dainty breakfast she had prepared. "O, you must eat!" she would exclaim anxi ously, " You can never work without it." And all the time trying to smile, she would pass her hand lightly across her own fore head as if to brush away the pain that snapped and darted underneath. Then came days when he could neither eat nor work at all ; when his sight was blurred and dizzy, his limbs weighted down as if with shackles ; his whole body full of sickness and nausea and distaste of living, and his mind dark with dismal forebodings. Describing this terrible time afterward he said to a friend : " What troubled me most was that I could not understand what wan the matter with me. The doctors said it was con sumption ; they did me no good. I knew something was killing me by inches. Finally I had to give up and go to bed. I could hardly lift my head off the pillow. My brother wanted to write to Dr. Pierce of Buffalo, nnd brought me three bottles of his ' Golden Medical Discovery 1 and begged me to take it. I didu't have much fuith but said to my wife : "What's the use? The doctors don't help me a bit and nothing else will. At this rate I'll die anyway. This ' Discovery ' can't hurt me; it may help me; I'll try these three bottles just to please Jim. He was right too. The first bottle went straight to mv digestion aud gave me an appetite so I relished mv food. I felt as if every mouth ful was doing me good and making good blood in my veins. I began to feel better and pick up my flesh ; my bowels came around right and I guess my liver sort of waked up. My cough stopped. 1 got good and strong and iu four weeks I was back at work again like a man." HOW TROVm.K WFNT AWAV. "My wife never let on how miserable she w as feeling all the while ; when I found it out I made her take the ' Discov ery ' too aud Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip tion for her nerves, and she says she's just made over new again. 1 sent for his great ' Medical Adviser. ' It's the grandest owk you ever saw. If we'd had it before, we would have saved hundreds of dollars." Then came new hopes, new plans, new power and fresh achievements. The little home in time became their very own, earned and paid for by the erstwhile nerveless hands and braiii now restored to vigor and activity by the most remarkable life-renewing "Discovery" that medical science has ever revealed to man. And when at length a sweet, fresh little life came to bless their lives, they felt that happiness was complete. This is a true story and it cannot be told too often or too strongly. What this great " Discovery " did for this man, it has done for thousands of men and women in every corner of this Union, and in every civilized country on the glob. The ''Golden Medical Discovery" is sold bv all good dealers iu uicdicitivi ever wIktc. (V CMjjg CHEATING FARMERS. - A Device Attached to Males to Reduce Weight. He is a mean man who cheats a farmer, but there are degrees of meanness even among such men. The meanest man of all has just been discovered. Realizing that the lightning rod fake and the duplicate order fraud were ex hausted, he devised a scheme for beating the farmer out of his grain and live stock on the scale under his very eyes. This he does by means of a V-shaped device attached to the scales and so operated as to shrink the ac ual weight 4 or 5 per cent. And he has found plenty of dealers mean enough to buy the de vice, soothing their consclenses by assuring them that the farmers have been getting the best of It right along and that dealers should now try to get even in this underhanded, con temptible manner. George L. Carman, superintendent of the Western Railway Weighing Association aud In spection Bureau, Chicago, has addressed circu lar lotters to general freight ageuts of lines in the West Informing them of the new fraud and describing the new device in detail. He will send copies to chairmen of the boards of rail way commissioners in Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Kansas and Nebraska, where hun dreds of these scale attachments have been sold. This he does not only to put people on their guard, but also to enable the boards to "bring such action as they may deem advisable." A diagram In tbe circular shows the appliance detached. It Is made of hardened steel. The end Introduced has a raised portion or "slug" on one side, which has a tendency when intro duced to lengthen the beam so as to cause it to weigh leBs than it should. Another diagram shows the handle made to fit over the top of the scale beam and used to tip the scale beam so that one hand preused on the rod connected with the lever on the scale raises a loop con nected with the beam so as to allow a space to insert the shrlnker In the diamond-shaped knife or bearing on each scale holding the rod "Information reached me some days ago," said Mr. Carman, "that this appliance was in tbe hands of several buyers of grain and live stock. I visited one of the stations, procured one of the appliances, which are being sold tor from (25 to $50 each by a party who represents himself as a solicitor for a prominent live stock firm In Chicago, the solicitation of business be ing a blind to cover his transactions while in traducing and selling these devices." The enterprising agent broaches the subject something after this style: "Do you want to know how to get even with the farmers who fill their stock with swill before bringing them to market to sell? I haveadevlce that will shrink hogs from 10 to 15 pounds each " Borne of these devices are bought and others are taken for use with the understanding that the dealers will ship to this firm some of their stock, off which the agent receives a commission. Careful tests with the device have produced the following results: First, scale balances properly at 1,000 pounds with shrlnker attached, 8D0 pounds; second, four hogs weighing 1,310 pounds, and with shrlnker 1,270, an average of 10 pounds per hog; third, 12 hogs, weighing 1,515 pounds, and with shrlnker 4.405, an aver age shrinkage of 11 pounds per hog.. The traffic officials will instruct their travel ing agents to watch sharply for the device and warn the farmers every chance they get to do so. St. l'aul Pioneer Press. To the Public.

Agent, Portland, Or, Death's Betrothal. A few years aeo a New York newspaper conducted an open discussion upon the topic: "Is Marriage a Failure?" The answer is easy and upon the surface. Where there is mutual love and respect, if there is also health, marriage is a success. When health is left out, even the most ardent love does not count, and marriage is invariably a failure. Modern science has cried the warning so often that all should realize the dangers of wedlock to people in ill-health. In a case of this kind death lurks on every side in the kiss of betrothal and the caress of the honeymoon. The man who is suffering from ill-health is a physical bankrupt, and has no right to condemn a woman to be his nurse for life and the mother of babes that inherit his physical weakness. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery acts directly on the digestive organism. It makes it strong and its action perfect. When a man's di gestion is all right his blood will be pure; when his blood is pure his nervous system Will be strong and his health vigorous. A woman who suffers from weakness and disease of the delicate organism of her sex is certain to suffer from general ill-health, and to be an unhappy, helpless invalid and a disappointment as a wife. Her children will be weak, puny and peevish. A happy home is an impossibility for her until her health is restored. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription cures all troubles of the dis tinctly feminine organism. It cures them speedily, completely and permanently. It fits for wifehood and motherhood. Both medicines are sold by all good dealers. KLONDIKE REACTION. All of Grant Comity at Present Has the Mining Fever. Long Creek Eagle. A reaction from Klondike has set in.
