Onr little Htory of "Joe Lane'
Treaty Tree" is being copied very
freoly without any credit being given
Grover Cleveland ban sjsikeu al
last in decided words on tho suhject
of bil candicacy for )iresideutial lion
era and ias deprived the iro)lit8 of
considerable amount, of material
An impression lias gone forth among
at least a portion of the people that
the gambling games which were run
nlng during the first days of the car
nival were a rt of that institution.
This is an utterly wrong impression.
The carnival management had no
connection management bad no con
licet ion whatever With these outfits
and it was by the maiiiigoment a effort
that the games wero dually dosed,
though the carnival Jienple held .that
it was the business, of tho city to acl
iu the matter rather than themselves.
It common to see the assertion in
print that the Indian fired the forests
in order to burn the trcos out of his
way to make good hunting and that
the prosH!ctor followed his example
becausc the trees were in his way,
ftclthor wero such fools, for all
woodsmen know that a burned forest
with its labyrinth of fallen logs anil
the thick brush which springs u
, around is about tho most diflicult
thing to travel through that can well
be imagined. They fired tho woods
to burn out the undergrowth and de
bri which littered the ground. The
trees were not nearly so much iu the
war standing np as they would have
been lying down. Decanso the woods
wero fired frequently, tho standing
tlinlmr was not injured except in
localities that had not been burned
over for number of years. In such
there wonld be lieat enough produced
to kill the standing timber. There Is
so much accumulation of Inflammable
material iu the woods now, 4uuder
tho present system of forest "pro
tection" that a fire is tremendously
destructive.
The Ashlaud Tidings has tho affront
ery la tho faco of all that has Missed,
to claim that an aKilogy is due from
Grauts Pass lu regard to what it
calls ''harsh and unjust criticism"
in regard U tho episode of tho presi
dent's visit, saying that General

that it was at tho president's urgent
request that the stop was not made

that the train was a complimentary
and run In accordance with tho wishes
of tho lirosidcnt, expressed thrnugl
his secretary and that therefore the
8. P. management was not rcsinsililo
But neither Kruttachnltt nor tho Ash
land Tidings nor Dlsimlchcr Morris
uor "Assistant Huis'rintcudent" O. W,
Taylor can coudsidcr ns so simple as
to believe for an instant that Kooso
volt or even Ixx b troubled himself as
to where and when tho train tink
wood or water or occupied himself in
any way with the minor details or the
train's management. Those were
taken care of by the subordinates of
the Houtheru Pacific as usual, for
how could Loeb, even If he wished if
ruu train through Southern Oregon
otherwise than by their advice anil
under their direction as to the minor
detaillsf It is well understood
throughout Southern Oregon tbal
the reason' of the slight was the
narrow, contracted and jealous spirit
which characterises the town of Ash
land and which has been demon
strateil lately iu other ways beside
this. When Orants Pass decided to
hold a carnival and had all the detail
arranged, Ashland arranged for an
opposiilou event. The week Ixfnre
the opening of the carnival, malicious
rejvrts of smalljKix and ilipthcria iu
Grants Pass were circulated in Gold
Hill, Sams Valley ami Central Point
and these reports wero started bv
Ashland parties. The social train
for Jackson county visitors to the
I) rant Pass carnival, and which was
uuder tho management of the Ashland
tram distcher, was not allowed to
stop at Phoenix, though sumo 4(1 pen
pie Were waiting there to take the
train for lirnnis lVs. Under the
circumstances lliis mention of

ONE WOMAN AMONG THE
THOUSANDS.
We received a letter from Waycross,
Georgia, s few days ago, from s lady
who lias lived there for years. She
writes us that she had been troubled
with female complaint for s long
time, until she was reduced almost
to a shadow. It effected her mind,
she could not remember any thing
would get so confused and so nervous
and irritable she could hardly sleep.
She described-her case as oue similar
to thousands of other women, and then
ended the letter by saying she gained
18 lbs. last mouth, and never felt
better in her life, having no trace of
her former troubles, slept well and
ate her meals with a relish. This
lady commenced the use of Dr.
Guuu's Blood and Nerve Tonic just
six weeks before she wrote the letter
from which we copy the above
This tonic is in tablet form and should
be taken right after meals. It turns
the food you eat into strong rich
blood, making solid flesh and feeding
the nerves, curing disease by making
healthy flesh. Pale, weak thin
people should use this tonic. Sold
by W. F. Krenier for 75c per box
or three boxes for ' 3. Sent postpaid
on receipt of price. Address Dr. Bo
san to Co. Phila., Pa.
