GENERAL COMMkNTx.
MI. Browns promised bill for the con
solidation Of several counties along the
Jim river has not yet taken form. Hi'
notice Of the bill has raised . breeze al

GRAND FORKS TAX MONEY.

Grand Forks %Plaindealer: IA memorial
will be presented to Gov. Howard, asking
that the territorial tax paid by Grand Forks
county be RENTED, in consideration of the
fact that the county has incurred a heavy
expense in taking care of persons afflicted
with smallpox and preventing the spread
Of the disease. The county is young and
the amount Of taxable property very small
the treasury had been drained by a%ppropri-
atoms for work on bridges, ETC., when this
terrible malady broke out within our bor-
ders; by prompt action and the expendi-
ture of over $500, the county commission
ers acting as a board Of health prevented
the spread of the disease which would have
otherwise caused great loes Of life in north.

POLITICAL JAckALLs.

When a candidate for state senator, the
political opponents of DR.. R. v. Price, in
their efforts TO overcome his great populsri-
ty, and being unable to extract "smut" from
the doctors uusullied record, arranged with
the party Jsckalls to drag the DOCTORS eel
ebrated Family medicines into the canvass,
and publish pretended analyses of the same.
So absurd were the formulas given, and base
the charges made, that the editor. of the
Commercial Advertiser, after a careful
Investigation, says, III asked q distinguished
dispensing druggist to explain the secret Of
the almost universal demand for Dr.. Pie,ce's
medicines. He said they are in fact genu-
Inc medicines, such Is very good physicians
would prescribe for the diseases which they
are advertised to cure" Such endorsements,
together with the doctors election by an un-
precedented and overwhelming majority,
and his enyiable record since made Is an
active, wise, and sagacfous legislator has
been a just rebuke to his pretty traducsrs,

A ToRpoR.

1orpor or inactivity of the kidneys is serious
ly dangerous to those organs, since 1t is the pre-
cedemt of diseases which destroy their substance
and endanger life. This sluggishness may b.
overcome by stimulating them, not excessively
but moderately. an effect produced by Hostel.
ter's Stomach Bitters. a general fnvigorant and
alternative, possessing diuretic properties of nc
common order. The impetus which this admi.
rable medicine gives to their evacuative function
counteracts any tendency to congestion which
may exist in their tissues. Both they and their
associate organ. the bladder, are invigorated as
well as gently stimulated by the Buffers, which
exerts a kindred influence upon the stomach,
liver and bowels. and by strengthening the sys-
tenn. enables 1t to Withstand malarial epidemics,
to which when exposed it might otherwise sue
cumb.
