Don'.rorRet 1t!

If you are troubled with nervous
ness. are disheartened, tired of life,
fear death or feel out of sorts, as the
saying is, you may safely conclude
that you have the Dyspepsia or
Liver Complaint. The liver is apt
to become torpid at this season of
the year as poisons arising from
stagnant water or decaying vegeta-
ton are more numerous and are
through inhalation taken into the
blood. Unless the liver is strong
and active. and furnishes a supply
of fresh and pure blood to drive cut
the impurities, the above mentioned
symptoms surely follow, and if net
heeded, end in more terrible dis
eases and death. Whites Prairie
Flower proves itself the Great Liver
Panacea. Its action on the liver is
different from any other medicine
over compounded. Its cures are
truly wonderful. Try il. Price, 25

BUYING HIS Own BEEF.-LaSt
summer a gentleman residing in
Snohomish purchased a quantity
of stock from neighbor, which
he left on the latter's ranch for
safe keeping. Some time after
ne was accosted by the neigh
boris hired man. and asked if ne
didn't want some nice fresh beef.
A contract was thereupon en-
tered into and he was duly fur
nished with choice cuts of fat
beef for several weeks, paying
coin for the same on delivery.
At lenghth, he smelt something
stronger than beef, and made
a visit to his neibor with a view
to examine the condition Of his
stock. His surprise can be bet
ter imagined than described
when he found nothing Of his
stock but their hides hanging on
Q fence, and realized the fact
that he had been eating and
paying for the meat of his own
cattle. A two-year old bull, a
prize animal, was the only one
spared the bxtcher's knife

No sooner does a man get in
to public position-though he
may be above reproach before
than he becomes an object Of
personal vituperation. General
Murphy, editor of STANDARD, for
instance, who had heretofore
always spoken with respect Of
the senior editor Of this paper
on announcing his election as
Mayor of Seattle, calls him
"Judge Berlah Brown" The
man who addresses his senior by
his Christian name, only betrays
his own low-breeding; in ad-
dressing another by a title to
which he has no claim, he insults
the character of the person ad-
dressed by representing him as
a false pretender.

Deacon Bost wick was missed
on Sunday from his accustomed
pew in a Detroit church, and in
the afternoon he was absent
from the Sunday school, of
which he was Superintendent.
The reason was that his steal
ings from his employer, after
being continued nine years, and
amounting to $4,000, had at
last been discovered, and he had

Damaging Gossip.

No previous local election in
this city ever elected more per-
sonal i'll feeling or sharper per-
sonal issues than the last. The
cause for this it would be diff
AIT to explain; or why Il. ~
should be any cause for person
al resentment in the mere mattel
OF the selection Of city officlals\
where all stand upon equal
terms, we cannot comprehend.
Yet that there were many irtem-
perate and ill Judged expressions
made, for which there was no
reasonable cause, cannot be de-
MED; and what is worse, many
Of these expressions were large
ly embellishcd and exaggerated
in their repetition, and others
reported that were never made,
and are continued IN circulation
after the cause which gave rise
to them no longer exists and its
aggitation can only result in
damage to our common inter-
ests. There has been no period
in the history of our town when
unity of sentiment, purpose and
action was more essential to our
future prosperity than at pres
ent. 1t would be folly and mad
ness for any citizen to refuse to
cooperate in measures vital to
community because of some per
sonal affront, real or imaginary,
from some other citizen, founded
perhaps upon the idle tale of
some thoughtless or malicious
gossip. A man who woald thus
subordinate his patriotism, pub
lie spirit and social obligations
to his own selfish feelings, wheth-
er mercenary or resentful, IN
public crisis like the present,
would be fit counterpart to the
John Hook described by Patrick
Henry as rushing through the
patriot camp crying: "Beef!
Beef" While his fellow-citi-
zens were hazarding life, fortune
and honor on the issue, he tho't

Let US indulge in no more per-

The Mail Carrier.


The eastern and southern mail
coming by the way of Tacoma,
was not delivered at the office
in this city on Saturday even
ing, as heretofore. On inquiry
as to the cause of the failure, we
are credibly informed that the
agent of the mail contractor at
Tacoma refused to allow the
mail to be delivered to the Zeph-
yr for transmission, alleging as
reason that some of the people
OF Seattle fired a salute in honor
Of an opposition steamer, and as
the contract did not require the
mail arriving at Tacoma on Sat
urday evening to lie delivered at
Seattle until Monday morning,
they did not propose to extend
any further favors to the people
Of Seattle by allowing their Sat
urday nights mail to be brought
down by the Zephyr on her reg
ular trips. This may be regard
ed as an open declaration Of war
by Mr.. Starr, the contractor, up
on Seattle, and we are glad it
has been announced. Mr.. Starr
is resident of Victor. : No nj .
large property holder in Taco
ma; those are the only points
which his steamers have ever
favored or benefited in any de
gree, the first as a base of re-
pairs, and the last as their nomi
nal port of entry. Seattle and
Olympia have been cut, avoided
and discommoded by Mr.. Starr,
ever since the death of his broth
er, even to the extreme of fire.
quent neglect and failure in the
delivery Of the mails on contract
time. He had postmaster ap-
pointed for this city, Tacoma
emigrant, without consultation
with our citizens, to protect him
self from reports Of failures
Had the postmasters done their
duty and the laws been enforced
according to the letter and spirit
Of the contract, as in olden times,
Mr.. Starts fines and forfeitures
would have more than overbal-
anced his subsidy. He is the
most remarkable example Of
public clemency we have ever
known. But as Mr.. Starr has
declared war upon Seattle, the
people Of Seattle will see that he
makes nothing by his notion
If he is determined to stand up
on the letter of his contract when
he can spite the people of Seattle
thereby, they will see that he be
compelled to do the same when
their interests are concerned,
and more than that, to give their
transportation business to those
who seek to promote the pros
perity of our town instead of
those who seek to destroy it.

Indian Fighting.

Indian Fighting.
There is more danger, toll and
suffering, and less glory to be
gained in fighting Indians in
their own native Businesses, than
in any wal between civilized
peoples. In the swamps and
everglades Of Florida a few hun
dred Indians successfully resist
ed the army of the United States
for years; the loss of whites
outnumbered the entire force Of
the enemy, and the cost in treas
ure to the Government would
have provided a home and llfe-
support to every Indian engaged
in the war. The army and the
Administration was criticised
and condemned in unmeasured
terms at that time for allowing
q handful of native savages to
successfully cope with we'll
organized army greatly out
numbering them and command
ed by officers thoroughly edu-
Gated in military tactics and
strategy. A like criticism has
been III common use at every
subsequent Indian war. News
paper critics, with no knowledge
of the circumstances and subject
have no hesitation in arraigning
and condemning military move
ments under the direction of
veteran officers distinguished
for their courage and skill in
civilized warIare. That mas been
especially the case in reference
to Gen. Howard's prosecution of
Indian campaigns. No account
is taken Of the fact that Tie p
dians are among their native
Businesses, unencumbered with
any supply trains, and that roots
and vermln are their ordinary
subsistence, and that an army Of
white men cannot endure life
without a supply Of food. A
Grant county paper says Gen.
Howard transported his supply
train of twenty-siX wagons over
eighty miles of the worst road
of the coast, making seventeen
miles a day. 1t was thought
that it would be utterly impos-
sIble to cross these mountains,
| It it was done without break
ing spoke. The road in many
places had to be made by the
soldiers. A man who has never
attempted to make his way
over the mountain region thro
which Gen. Howard pursued the
Indians in the last and present
campaign cannot conceive of the
obstacles overcome and the en-
ergy and endurance to lie exer-
cised in chasing Indians through
a country almost inaccessible to
whites and totally destitute of
the means Of subsistence to
white soldiers. The campaign
which Gen. Howard successfully
prosecuted against the Nez Per
ces would have made HIM fam
GUS if carried on in any other
than an Indian war. The un-
ceasing and unreasonable cen
sure of which he is constantly |
the object l. is cruel as it is un-
just.
