Dear Sri have just had an
Iexcellent opportunity of trying
the virtue of your Lacupia in
intermittent fever. Four of four
| Iehildren were down at one
time with the ehills, as we call
it here. Some of them had
taken quinine before, but il
looming back on them, 1 con-
cluded to try the great remedy,
gave them Lacupia 4 times a
day. Two days sufficed to clear
them and the house of every
vestige of shake. 1t is now six
weeks, and not the least sign of
a return. The children never
looked better, nor ate more
heartily.
Yours most truly,
SOLOMON DISH,

My Dear BenefdctOr - Your
theory that malaria is poison
and Lacupia its eradicatOr and
cleanser from the system, is
true to the letter. Ever since
last April 1 have used this
lremedy in chills and fever, and
in every form of malarious dis
ease, to the exclusion of qui-
mine or any other prepare ton
from Peruvian bark, and am
free to say it is the sine qua non
for that disease, as well as all
Iother diseases caused by mala-
ria. A specific; a cure that
never fails.

Attention Veterans:

The people of the great state ol CnI'
had kindly provided home LOT Tie oliii-

vent to the rescue of our Government
r.ban traitors sought to destroy 1t, and |
o,,r soldiers and Sailors Orphans Home
was pointed to as one of the most substan-
tfal evidences of the patriotism and kind
ness of a grateful people. But the same
spirit, in the same party that opposed its
establishment in the first place, found it
self i'll the ascendency in the Legislature
last winter, and an act known as the in
famous O'ConnOr law was passed, which
virtually wipes out the home thus pro-
vided for your children.
l. This law provides that none but the
children of men who died while in the
service, or who have since died of wounds
or of disease contracted while in the line
of duty of such service, shall be admitted
to said home, while the old law provides
that the children of all deceased, INDECENT
and permanently disabled soldiers and sail
ors should be received.
2. That no child can be received while
! the mother is alive, under the age OF II
years. Or, in other words, after the
mother has struggled along and support
ed her child until it is capable of assist
ing her in providing living for herself,
this law kindly proposes to take it off hel
hands.
3. If a man is so unfortunate as not tC
be on the pension rolls of the Govern
ment, his children, no matter how poOl
and destitute they may be, are excluded
from the Home by this cruel and outrage
Gus law.
? 4. No child will be admitted unless tn
guardian or mother agrees to pay to thu
Trustees the money received as pension
on account of the death of its father

Now remember, comrades, that thi

valley in the Teraitory. In fact the
region contains many thousands of
acacs of unoccupied land prs.emi-
nenty suited for feeding millions Of
sheep and kline. Its grass, water,
climate, etc, combine to constitute
better facilities for stock raising than
can be found elsewhere on the coast
save in Western Oregon where the
advantages and general character.
istics are very similar to it. An ex-
perienccd writer saws that in Canter-
bury, New Zealand, land is worth
SO per acre government p rice and
though sQuatters there are very
wealthy, few Of them can ever buy
their sheep.runs. All pasture lands
there have been taken up, and to
gct "run" there, a sheep farmer
must purchase the good will 0ease)
of an existing " sheep-run"-say for
10000 sheep, 10000 acres, the an
nual rent of which, payable to the
New Zealand government. is now s.
per 100 acres, which would be S3,.
900 per year. To. day squatter's
lease for 10000 sheep could not he
obtained there for less than 81 800
of good will; add to this the price of
the flock, say 81 80 each, would re-
uuire $15,0)O mere; then add value
of improvements, and it will be found
that only capitalist with hundred
thousand or SO could successfully en-.
gage in wool growing in New Zea,
land. Experienced sheep-farmers
aver that this even is underestimated.
Not so, however, with our people.
A sheep farmer here can purchase
his sheep at from 81 to 50 each, and
squat down on government land
his own selection-paying neither
good will nor annual rent for his
"sheep rum" and stay thus at free
rent rates, tending his focks, until
he or some one else purchases the
land from the United States Govern
ment at the usual price. Whatever
improvements he makes Greeting
houses, etc., he can limit to. 1G0
acres, to which he can obtain a title
after five years resid snce upon it.
Consider these facts and then ask
yourself if there was so much exag.
geration after all when this country
was denominated "the best the snn
ever shone on?"
