VREGULATOR?
Reader, did you ever take Simmons
Liver Regulator, the "Kino of
Liver Medicines?" Everybody needs
take a liver remedy. It toaelURgiehor
diseaxed liver that impairs digestion
and oausos oonntipatlon, when the waste
that should be carried off remains in
the body and poisons the whole system.
That dull, heavy feeling Is due to a
torpid liver. Biliousness, Headache,
Malaria and Indigestion are all liver
diseases. Keep the liver active by an
occasional dose of Simmons Liver Reg
ulator and you'll get rid of these trou
bles, and give tone to the whole sys
tem. For a laxative Simmons Liver
Regulator is better than Pills. It
does not gripe, nor weaken, but greatly
refreshes and strengthens.
Every package has the Bed Z
stamp n the wrapper. J. II.

AN IMMENSE YIELD OF CORN
IT WILL. BE USED AS FUEL.
Western Farmers Can Have Warm
i Fires and Plenty to Eat
Largest Crop
Known.
j CHICAGO, Sept. 14. With a 2,500,
000 bushel crop the west will have
corn to burn. According to a Kansas
City dispatch a packing house com
pany has already issued orders to Its
Wichita bouse to begin the ue of corn
for fuel as soon as It can be bought for
twelve cents a bushel. On the basis of
the May price, with due allowance for
freight and for the discount from the
western farms is not much over ten
cents a bushel.
The '96 crop of corn it practically
made, and without doubt tt will be a
record breaker. It is figured that the
total yield of oorn this year will be 2,
825,000,000 bushels. It will not be far
from double the quantity of com pro
duced last year and fir in excess of the
quantity of oorn produced In any of
the star crops in the history of the
trade,

PORTLAND, Sept 18 -Rufus Hal
lory, one of the counsel for Jamea Lo
tau and Held Back, the Chinese smug
glers, in the United Htates district
court Friday moved for a reduction of
Back's fine from $6000 to $3000. Jjdge
Bellinger had impoeed a fine of (8000
on Lotan and $5000 on Back. Mr.
Mallory stated to the court that tt was
Impossible for Beld Back to raise the
amouut of his flue. He bad made he
reto efforts to get the u oney, even go
ing so far as to offer to turn over all
hie property to any one who would let
him have the amount of the fine. He
failed, and there seemed no alterna
tive but to go to jail. If be did under
the circumstances, he would no doubt
take advantage of the pauper act, and
be released after serving only thirty
days. Iu that event the government
would let nothing.
The motion for the reduction of the
fine was opposed by Mr. Bcbnabel,
who represented (be government He
cited authorities from Oregon reports
in support of his position. However,
Judge Bellinger took a different view
of the case, and reduced the fine to
$3000. It is claimed that fieid Back
can raise that amount, and thus es
cape imprisonment and, at the same
time enrich the government to that
ext-nt.
Verdict for Damage
SEATTLE, Sept. 18. -The Jury In
the suit of Mrs. Elisabeth Pugh vs.
the Oregon Improvement Company
for dumugea for the loss of her husband
In the Franklin mine fire of August
1893, today rendered a verdict for
14000. The verdict was given by a ma
jority of ten to two, under the law pas
sed by the last legislature allowing ten
Jurors to render a verdict. Twelve
other suits are pending, and twelve or
fourteen others are likely to be entered,
this suit having been brought as a test.
The question at issue was wether the
company was to blame for the stopping
of the fan by which the smoke was
driven liack aud choked the men.

NEW YORK, Sept. 13.Thls morn
ing's World was probably the only
regular Issue of the newspaper which
contained not a line of advertising.
Flooding the pressroom on account of
fire r.-duced the press capacity so that
It wss possible to print only eight
pages, and eight solid pages of adver
tising were thrown away rather than
cut the news. Insplte of delays dur
ing the fire Itself, and consequent upen
It, wblch Included the stopping of all
typesetting machines ty cuttlug nftbe

One hundred tons of paper Were dam
aged by the fire. It started in the paper-room
from an electric wire.
Reynolds is Held.
PENDLETON, Sept. 13. United
States Commissioner Bean's court has
been occupied two entire days in the
examination of George M. Reynolds,
deputy postmaster, for robbing Weston
postofflce, August 26. . The Investiga
tion is very searching. Five attorneys
are employed io the case. The evi
dence was completed this evening,
and arguments by counsel heard by
the commissioner, who decided to
bold Reynolds for the United States
grand Jury at Portland, in the sum of
11200. The friends of Reynolds have
put up the bail.
Wheat.
The movement of the crop of '95 has
begun, says the Portland Commercial
Review, and receipts are coming in
fairly well. During the past week
250 cars arrived from eastern Oregon,
200 cars from the valley, most of the
valley wlieat'does not reach Portland,
many cars going to the mills at Oregon
City. Trading Is not at all of an active
character, indeed there is hardly any
steady business doing. The weakness
of the market and the decline In
prices back east and at home have
probably drawn out larger offerings;
but as a rule, sellers were much disap
pointed that buyers were so firm in re
fusal to trade at anything above the
market quotation. In a few Instances
choice parcels suitably situated
brought a slight advance on open quo
tations; but sellers are finding it diffi
cult to get concessions from exporters,
and even millers are basing purchases
near market values. While, stated
above, trade is slow, yet there Is some
thing doing all the time, and in the
aggregate considerable wheat has pas
sed into the bands of millers and ship
pers. A summary of the week's busi
ness shows that sellers have been dis
posing, with sales of valley witbin the
range of 48jc to 49c bushel, and Walla
Walla 45c to 46c, the top figure being
obtainable only ou round lots of choice
shipping and milling.
Changed His Mind,
A. E Weber, who mysteriously dis
appeared from his home on Thirteenth
aud Jefferson streets in Portland, and
who, up to a few days ago, was sup
posed to be lying at (lie bottom of the
Willamette river, returned to his
home Wednesday night from Idaho.
The fact of his being alive was made
evident by a letter from him published
last Monday. Shortly after Weber
reached home a friend called on him.
He found hhu in pretty good condi
tion, but very much averse to speuk
lug of his experience since so mysteri
ously leaving. Weber, however, stated
that the night he disappeared be
jumped from the boat in which he
was last seen on that occasion, into
the river, purposing to couiinii suicide
as be bad loo much trouble to live.
After reaching the water he changed
his mind and gwam out. He traveled
to Boise afoot, and there he concluded
to bear the ills be has rather than fly
to those he knowns nothing about.

An Accident
The ever present concentrated lye
occasionally gets its burning work Iu
ou trusting childhood. The latest vic
tim Is the youngest child of Mr. and
Mrs. L. S. Winters, a lad of two and a
half years, who, while playing around
yesterday, found some of the stuff and
sampled it. It appeared that by some
accident the box of lye had been
knocked down from a concealed posl
tlon under the roof, falling Into a sink,
where the little fellow discovered it.
Fortunately be was seen before he bad
taken much of It, and his folks, whi'e
sending for a doctor, administered fat
ty antidotes and emetics and the doc
tor thinks none of the lye reached the
stomach, but the little fellow's lips,
mouth and throat are considerably
blistered and iuflamed. Salem States-
That Bridge.
At the last session of the county
court, says the Brownsville Times, the
matter of redecklug and otherwise re
pairing the bridge which spans the
Calapooia at this place was discussed
and it is with pleasure we learn that
that honorable body disposed of the
matter by issuing an order for Com
missioner Waters to proceed at once to
have the necessary repairs made. For
a time there seemed to be some conten
tion as to who was the rightful owner
of the bridge the county or the city.
And in taking the view they did of
this mater, they exhibited a spirit of
fairness that entitled them to the re
spect of all good citizens. The county
court of Linn county Is evidently
composed of men who desire to ds
what is right.
Fishing.
The finest place ou the coast for the

He has arranged with Mr. Koehler,
the manager of the Southern Pacific
to extend the regular summer excur
sion tickets from Portland and the val
ley points to Yaquina and return to
cover the lime of the great saluiou run
at the coast. Large delegations from
Salem and other prominent points
have already arranged to go to Yaqu
