disease that it will not cure, and that dis

his Discovery for that disease, yet he knows
it to be the most searching blood cleanser
yet discovered, and that it will free the
blood and system of all other known blood
poisons, bs they animal, vegetable or min
eral. The Golden Discovery is warranted
by him to cure tho worst form of skin dig

In an article on narrow-gauge
railroads, the Helena (Montana)
Herold says: The advantages of
narrow-gauge railroads for sparsely
settled countries are made apparent
by the report of Engineer Huff, writ
ing from Denver of the Denver and
Rio Grande Railroad. 1t is appar-
ent, we think, that such read would
answer Montana's needs for some
years to come, which nevertheless
the Northern Pacific (standard gauge)
would better supply, could we but get
it. If Congress this winter fails to
assist the construction of our favorite
east and west line, the next best move
for Montana is to take hold of the
narrow-gauge north and south road,
and promote plans for building it to
our doors" 1t is undoubtedly = fact
that these cheaper roads serve all the
demands for transportation in any
but the NEST thickly populated parts
Of the country, and they will soon be-
come .popularl2in Minnesota: The

THE LONG LOST FOUND. 3
William Rustlcateth In Canada.



A Washington City dispatch Of
Monday says: "The messenger Of
sergeant-at-Arms Ordway arrived
this morning from Montreal. He haa
been on the track of William s. King
since the goth Of January when he
first obtained sight Of him.
"He traced him to the great stock
farm near Compton, Canada, about a
hundred and fifty miles from Montre
al, and on the I'd Of February about
ten o'clock in the evening, he placed
in his hands = subpoena to appear be.
fore the Committee Of Ways and
Means, to testify concerning his re-
ceiving one hundred and twenty-five
thousand dollars ($125,000) in con.
nection with the Pacific Mail sub.
sidy.
"Mr. King expressed much surpris.
that the messenger found him, but
did not indicate that he would obey
the summons.'
In the House Of Representatives
Monday, Mr.. Dawes offered resolu-
ton directing the Speaker to issue a
warrant for the arrest Of King, re.
quiring that he be brought before the
House to answer for contempt in not
having obeyed the summons served
on him. But it appearing that a
summons served on party who was
outside the jurisdiction of the United
States was of no legal account, the
resolution was withdrawn.
A Washington dispatch to the
Chicago Post says: "The House will
now be asked for an order for King,
arrest, to be executed when he return,
to the United States. KingI friend.
say he will come to Washington when
cleared Of perjury by the statut to Of
limitations, and tender his resignation
to his seat in Congress"

The prolonged Senatorial contest in
Wisconsin resulted in the election Of
the Hon. Angus Cameron, of La
Crosse, by a vote Of 6S for Cameron
to SO for Senator Carpenter. This
result was affected by coalition Of
the Democrats with the Independent
Republicans on a platform submitted
by the former. This platform is
thoroughly Republican and 50 i, the
Senator elect. Both are endorsed by
Senator Carpenter. This gentleman
has only himself to blame for his de.
feat. He is q brilliant man, but he
has been identified with and has
championed the measures most oh.
noxious to the people, and the change
is in the direction of more honesty
among our public men and greater
purity in the administration Of thu
Government.
