HEADACH
" I was for many yeare a
perfect martyr to Headache
and Dyspepsia, and some
times thought it would kill
me. After trying many
remedies, and finding them
of no account, I concluded
to fry Simmons Liver Regu
lator, and I am now and
have been for fifteen years
a stranger to a headache.
I can recommend the Regu
lator, for it is no humbug."

He Ban That Train
'Toughs" have learned to their
sorrow more than once that riding
over the Oregon & California road
on a "blufF' ticket isn't the safest
kind of traveling in the world.
They may be able to pass them
selves over some roads easily
enough in that way, but they don't
ride far over Oregon & California
at least not oer the southern
end of it. Last Saturday morning
: party of six men were on the
south bound train trying to get
through on four tickets. Two of
those who had tickets received
checks from conductor Bartlettthis
side of Roseburg, and then gave the
checks to two who had no tickets.
On his next trip through the cars
the conductor saw through the
game at once, and ordered the two
who had no tickets to give up their
checks. They refused and one of
them jumed up on a seat, drew a
long revolver and declared he would
shout the first man who
touched him there was no
on the train who could
put him off, etc. Other people in
the car crawled under the seats,
women began to cry and a general
hubbub ensued. Bartlett told the
two who had given up their checks
to come into the baggage car with
him. They did so and he dis
creetly held them there. Then he
took a big shotgun and armed one
of his train boys, and went back
to see the howling terror with his
big pistol, in the other car. Cov
ering the bad man with tho shot
gun, he ordered him to "come
down ont of that." He came
down, meek as a half-drowned kit
ten. He and his fellow give up
the checks and they were uncere
moniously hustled off the ttain,
which steamed off and left their?
near Oak Grove station. Bartlett
said he had never failed yet to un
load a man who tried that game,
and didn't propose to let anyone
run his train without orders from
headquarters. Ashlaml Tidings.
A Great Scheme.
Mr. Kit Carton Payne of this
city has taken up a ranch on the
Klaskanine rivor opposite Astoria
where he intends going into the
oyster business. Kit has struck :.
scheme. He has discern red :i nev.
variety of trees and has ser -.it .
lamu oyster anil clam on-iiM i.
Tin' oysteis sleep during the d u,
and, like the Oregon tramps, arise
at twiiight and go forth lo ittstie
for something to eat. The new
variety of trees set out by Kit has
barbs similar to fish hooks, which
the oyster is particularly fond of.
It crawls out of its watery bed and
makes for the trees. In tickling
its throat it is caught. Kit claims
the oyster fails to extricate itself,
and in the struggle loses its over
coat. He can go out every morn
ing and pick several bushels of
fresh oysters in his orchard for the
Portland market. He has surely
got a corner on the oyster market
and his iricuds begin to think he
posesses a great head. Yimlicn
tor. After you get angry and stop
your paper just poke your finger
in water, pull it out and look for
the hole. Then you will know how
sadly you are missed. A man who
thinks a paper cannot survive with
out his support ought to go off and
stay awhile. When he comes back
half his friends will not know that
he was gone and the other half will
not care a cent, while the world at
large kept no account of his move
ment. You will find things that
you cannot endorse in every p?per.
bven the bible is rather plain and
hits some hard licks. If you were
to get mad and burn your bible the
hundreds of presses would still go
on printing it; and when you stop
your paper and call the editor
names, the paper will still bo pub
lished, aud what is more you'll
read it on the sly.
Tonic, Alterative and Cathai tic.
Simmons Liver Regulator cures mala
ria, biliousness, dyspepsia, headache,
constipation and piles. It is most effect
ive in starting the secretions of tiie liver,
causing the bile to act as a purge. When
there is an excess of bile in the stomach,
the Regulator is an active purge; after
the removal of the bile it will regulate
the bowels and impart vigor and health
to the whole system.
In the City of Mexico this season
$350,000 have been spent in fitting
up the six rings where the bull
fighters do their little deeds of
daring.
Tha New Tariff Bill.
"Washixgtox, Feb. 17. Repre
sentative Randall is engaged in
preparing a tariff bill which he
may offer as a substitute for the
proposition that Mills, chairman of
the ways and means committee
and his coadjutors are making out.
Randall proposes to include the
charges on customs duties and in
ternal revenue taxes in his measure
and make a reduction of about
868,000,000, taking the receipts
for the year ending June last as a
basis.
This reduction will be madaout
by abolishing all taxes on tobacco
and fruit spirits, reducing the
whisky tax from 00 to 45 cents
per gallon and abolishing certain
special taxes. These charges
wonld result in a reduction of
about 863,000,000, divided as fol fel fol
eows: Tobacco, $30,000,000;
spirits distilled from fruits, $1,000
000; whisky, $30,000,000; and
special taxes, $2,000,000, The re
mainder of the $17,000,000 would
be taken from customs duties and
would result mainly from the duty
to the free list. This is the basis
on which the bill is being prepared,
but the details may be changed
somewhat before it is presented,
aud the measure will not, of course
bo brought forward until the bill
of the ways and means committee
is ready to report, and perhaps not
till after the house has considered
that measure, when it may bo of
fered as a substitute for the com
mitlee's bill.
