The Prevention of a TerribIe Di,n,ter

No disorders, excepting the most deadly forms of
lung disease, involve such a tremendous destruction
OF organic tissue as those which fasten upon the
kidneys. Such maladies when they become chronic
-and none are so liable to assume that phase-com-
pletey wreck the system. To prevent this terrible
disaster, recourse should be had, upon the first
manifestation of trouble, to Hostetter's Bitters :,
wch experience has proved to be highly efe ctive
gans OF urinaion, as well as to the liver stomach
and bowels Another beneficial result of this medi-
cine, naturally consequent upon its diuretic action
IS the elimination from the blood of impurities
winch beget rheumatism, gout, dropsy, and other
maladles BY increasing the activity of the kidneys
II augments the depurative efficacy of those organs
which are most important outlets for the escape
OF such impurities. je3eod1wSw

menced the examination.
After giving detailed statement as to the
duties OF supervisor, Anderson said that he
had seen the document known as the "Sher-
man protest" and it had been altered, not be-
ing the same as when signed by him. There
were two or three additional paragraphs in
the document, and it was filed in several
places
Several documents were read, giving detailed
statements OF the manner in which Anderson s
life was endangered, and of the Intimidation,
etc, which existed in his parish. He was of
the opinion that because he would not ca rry
out the ideas of Gov. Kellogg and others they
Were desirous of driving him out of the par.

asked how his parish was going. lie replied,
about 1000 Democratic majority. Gov. Kellogg
said, "That will never do," and suggested that
Anderson rally the colored voters of two polls
and carry them, and let the remainder of the
polls 60 Democratic, remarking further that
the witness could then get up a disturbance,
and in consequence thereof throw the Demo-
cratic vote out.
A document was produced purporting to be
an affidavit signed by the witness and D. A.
Weber, supervisor Of West Felciana parish
wherein those gentlemen refused to sign pro-
test against the result in their parishes, as they
knew that large Democratic gains had been
obtained by legitimate means. The original of
the affidavit, the witness said, was recently in
the possession of Stanley Matthews. While in
New Orleans he heard that John Sherman was
in the city. desirous of seeing Dan Weber,
to see Sherman, but failed to find him. But
later they succeeded in finding him. He was
in Molair's restaurant on Canal street. Weber
advanced addressing Mr.. Sherman, and the
latter remarked, "Gentlemeu, l am glad to see
you, as understand there is some difficulty in
your respective parishes This is a time when
the assistance of every Republican and true
patriot is needed, and trust you will stand by

not submit 10 the treatment of the reg1-
lar fraternity-then he RAY be called IN

provision he may make for his future, and
for the future of his heirs and children,
may be set aside and dealt with as they
please, because he has in one, two or

LINCOLN CITY.

Its OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES FaciE-
hes--Agricultural Reso.-ces, end
Future Prospects, etc.
Editor Bismarck TRIBUSE:-Lincoln
City is located on the west bank Of
Missouri and Heart rivers Immediately
opposite Bismarck, and two miles north
of Fort Abraham Lincoln, taking its
name from that fort; it is said by all
who have availed themselves Of the op-
portunity to see it, to be one of the
handsemest, as we'll as the most facile
locations for city on the Missouri
river.
Manufacturing facilities can be easy
reached At Lincoln City from the water
power of the Big Heart River, which
give this location superior advantages
of many other cities, and one which
cannot be too highly priced by the peo-
pie Of the ''great north west" from
the fact that manufacturing is very
essential branch of industry to be in
troduced in this region of country.
Lincoln Citv is bounded on the east by
the Missouri river, with easy access to
steamboat landing, on the west, By the
inexhaustible coal beds Of the Heart
river; on the north, oy the Big Heart
river, remarkable for the purity and
power of its waters, also noted for the
extent of its agricultural valley abun
dainty supplied with timber OF differ
ent kinds, affording advantages for
stock raising not to be equaled in the
north west; on the south, by Ft. Lin

shadow of death, to the savage or tyrant

vsncement Of civilization, and resting

soarces of the country surrounding
Lincoln City we shall be easy in recon-
mending, as it will speak best for It.
self to those who will give them an i'm
partial examination; the extent is not
limited leaving out an occasional un-
even spot occupied by hill or ravine,
which make this place more romantic,
pleasant and valuable. We will give
as comparison to the many thousands
Of acres Of land lying in the immediate
vicinity Of Lincoln City, the farm of
Col. VIM. Thompson lying two miles
north of Bismarck; the products of this
beautiful farm will compare with any
in the northwest and the comparison
We think is justifyable.
The future of Lincoln City is with
out doubt bound to be great; with the
numerous natural advantages above
mentioned, it has in addition an easy
and complete location as a railroad
centre; the N. P. r. R., now graded
several miles west of the Missouri river.
and the Bismarck, Lincoln and Black
Hills r. r., which will of necessity at
no distant day be pushed on, must
necessarily, for convenience and econ
eny, make Lincoln City their initial
poiat on the west bank of the Missouri
river. In conclusion and in general,
we say to the readers of this article
that in visiting Bismarck, either on
business or for pleasure, to avail them
selves Of the opportunity of visiting
Lincoln City and its surroundings,
and satisfy themselves as to the pros
pect in the future Of the city Of which
we write. West SIDE.
