At last there is de6nite action' in the matter pi the swamp land frauds in this state. The United states grand jury now in session is giving the matter thorough inves tigation. The particular subject of inquiry is whether any one in the effort to acquire these lands has committed perjury or has ob tained any one to commit perjury, or whether there has been conspir acy to defraud the United States out of any swamp land or any other land. If the jury finds rea sonable grounds for supposing that any of these crimes have been committed they will indict the parties. A cloud of witnesses has been summoned from different parts of the state. Among those who have already been before the jury are Hon. T. "VV. Davenport, Hon. Warren Truitt, Hon. I. Townsend, Gen. Tolman, J. A. Fisk and many others. Four witnesses arrived here yesterday from Burns, in Harney valley. They have been six days on the way, having been obliged to go around into Idaho to get hero. One of them, Mr. Mc Menaney, is in the employ of Mr. Todhunter, a cattleman, and Mr. I. L. Poujade, and the others are also cattlemen. A lot of wit nesses have been summoned from Camp Ridwell, Cal.. and Judge Townsend, register of the land office at Lakeview. will arrive to day with the books and maps per taining to his office. Special land agent Shackleford has a whole box full of maps at the office of the district attorney, and though he says nothing, he looks as if he was now hauling in his net with good prospects of catching a big lot of swamp angels and other fish. Of course no one can tell who may be indicted by the grand jury, but if there is any one who is more likety to be in dicted than any other it is Hen Owens. As he has been associ ated with man', including even some state officials, in swamp land transactions, there is a glorious uncertainty as to who may be placed on trial for having acquired too much swamp land. Orerjo nian. TVEAK LUNGS MADE STRONG. Persons who stay in-doors all tha time and lean over a counter or a desk, sooner or later discover that their lungs are giving out. Editors are often thus afflicted. Erastus K. Sutherland, editor of The Eastern State Journal, "White Plains, New York, writes: "I have used Allcock's Pokous Plastees, in my family since 1S68. In that year I had an attack of pneu monia from which I was not ex pected to recover. My lungs were left in a very weak state. I commenced using Allcock's Porous Plasters, wearing them constantly three months, two on the breast and two on the back. The result was sur prising, at least to me. The pains in my lungs had left me, and I felt like " a giant refreshed with new wine.". The Pacific Journal hears that Messrs.

Dement & Co. Hisrh License In New York. Albany, March 2-3. Bourbon was banished to the gallery yester day, where, side by side with .prohibition, it watched the strug gle over Crosby's high license bill. As soon as the bill was announced, ex speaker Erwin moved to call the roll of the house and the only absentees were Evans, of Oneida, and Hill, of Albany, who were ill in bed and were formally excused. Assemblyman Crosby offered three amendments that were agreed upon by the friends of the bill. One increased the cost of a "shopkeepers' beer license" from $50 to 100. another struck cider out, and the third made high li cense applicable only to cities of more than 400,000 inhabitants. In other words, only to New York and Brooklyn. All three amend ments wero adopted by the Repub lican majority, but not until after a long period of argument and fili bustering by the minority. The Democrats made a series of vigor ous assaults on the bill and fiilibus tered nearly four hours. The bill finally passed by the votes of G9 Republicans and 1 Democrat for, and 52 Democrats and 4 Republi cans against. The bill provides that licenses to sell liquor of any kind to be drank on the premises shall be not less than 1,000. A license to sell malt liquor and wine to be drank on the premises shall be not less than $100. The storekeepers' liquor license, to sell liquors of any kind, not to be drank on the premises, and drug gists' license are to be not less than $100 each. fYvo vr. rx o vv Why Aek- 1'iu s nn m u vavi vt. cr's Bl00(l Elixir is warranted, is because it is tho best IJlood Preparation known.
