wac. The fire extends TO the city limits
of Green Bay on the east and running
over the adjacent marshes. The city is
not regarded in danger, though cinders
and ashes are falling in the streets, The
smoke is SO dense to-day that buildings
two blocks distant are not visible. On the
west the fire has approached the village
limits Of Fort Howard, Immediately op.
pOsite on the river, and large forces Of
men are engaged in staying its progress.
What will be the result to the standing
pine and other timber in these counties
cannot yet be ascertained. No access to
the forests is practicable, and nothing can
be estimated except from the effects of
the irenear the.settlements, where it pene.
lrates the ground from one to two feet
and destroyes the life of the trees, The
is hazy with some appearance
of rain. 1t will take q heavy and drench-
ing rain to saturate the ground and stop
the progress Of the fire.

Astounding tho virtues of Cundurango
for the cure Of cancer, the Tribune Of this
morning has an editorial in which the lol.
lowing facts are given: "a citizen Of
Chicago, Of high standing, took his vile,
who had been long afflicted with cancer,
to Washington to be treated by DR.. Bliss.
Her case was serious one, involving u
speedy termination one way or the other.
She tried tho Cundurango remedy, and
patiently awaited the result. In less than
two weeks the cancer exhibited alarming
signs, threatening her with death from
bleeding. DR.. Bliss could not account for
the change, and an immediate operation
was resolved upon. The knife soon ex.

belongs to us, With the ballot in our

This Is q movement OF humanity to pro-
tect ITSELF The movement of labor against

comprehensive the grandcst movement Of
the age. The preamble to series Of

mental principle that labor is creator of
wealth and is entitled to all II creates.
Affirming this we avow ourselves willing
to accept the final results Of the opera.
tion Of the principle so radical as the over
throw Of the whole profit making system;
the extinction Of all mouopolies; the abo-
lition Of privileged classes; an extended
rather than arestricted franchise; univer.
sal education and fraternity; perfect free.
dom of exchange, and as the best and
grandest OF all, the final obliteratiOn Of
that stigma upon our so-called Christian
civilization, the poverty Of the masses.
Holding principles radical as these
and bearing before our minds
an ideal condition SO noble,
we are still aware that our goal can't
be reached at asingle leap. Wetake into
account the ignorance, selfshness, preju-
dice, corruption and decentralization Of the
