CANCER.

This disease like many others is regarded
as incurable. 1t is not so. If it is taken in
time it is as easily cured as wart or q corn.
We know very well that it is a fearful disease
and will eat away until it destroys life, that
is if it is neglected, but if it is attended to
when it first makes its appearance, or soon
after. there is no trouble in eradicating it
from the system. Persons will have to be here
during part of the treatment, consequently
there is no use writing 10 me for information
whether it can be cured without my seeing the
case / also treat with success, Rupture, Piles,

o.xsrfrurroNAL AMENDMENTS.

At the request of Governor kinkead
the Carson Appeal publishes the follow
ing in regard to the amendments to the
State Constitution:
1t may not be generally understood
that at the coming election the people OF
this State will be called upon to vote for
or against the adoption of two amend
ments to the State Constitution and new
Article (Eighteen.) The first amend
ment was passed by the Legislature JAN
uary 18th, 1877, and provides that Sec
ton One Article II, of the State Consti-
tuition shall be amended by the elimination
therefrom of the word "white" and the
effect Of such elimination shall be, "that
no male citizen of the United States shall
be excluded from the rights Of suffrage
and office holding by reason OF his race,
color or previous condition of servitude,
provided that this amendment shall not
be construed as comforting the rights OF
naturalization, suffrage and Office hold
ing upon any native of the Chinese En-
pire." Statutes of 1877, page 2l4. The
second amendment was passed by the
Legislature February 9th, 1877, and
provides for amending Article XII
adding new section (Ten), which SHAY
read as follows: "No public funds of any
kind or character whatever, State county,
or municipal, shall be used for sectarian
purposes" Statutes of 1877, page 22l.
The new Article (Eighteen), provides
that, "The rights Of suffrage and office
holding shall not be withheld from any
male citizen of the United States by
reason of his color or previous condition
Of servitude." Statutes Of 1877, page 2l4.
These amendments were also passed by
the Legislature january 9th, 1879.
Statutes of 1879, page l49-l5O, and by
Assembly joint resolution No. Eleven.
passed February Sd, lS79,it was provided
that at the general election Of 1880 these
amendments should be submitted to the
voters of the State Of Nevada, and tina,
the County Commissioners..of the sew
eral counties of this State shall, in proc
lamations for the election Of the various
officers for said year, provide for submit
ting the amendments herein named to thu
voters of the several precincts in thei
respective counties" We are thus ex
plicit in setting this matter before tn
people for the reason that alread.
in one county of this State (Eureka)
an election proclamation has been pub
lished by the Board of County Com
missioners which makes no allusion t
these amendments. 1t is highly in
portant that the several Boards of Count
Commissioners in this State comply wit
the laws in this respect and also in PR
viding for the expression Of the popula
will on the subject of Chinese immigr'
ton, as noted in the Governors Pr
clanlation.

Off for Work.--The packets leaving

pushed at both ends. We expect to see
the whole line put to contract by July.
Wheat Crop.--In the history Of Rock

promising at this time Of the year. There
has been large acreage seeded, and even
if it brings low price, the immense crop,
if its promises are fulfilled. will bring a
large sum of money into our county.
Farm Labor.-The revival of railroad
and mining interests of the country, has
created great demand for labor, and the
farmers fear it may make their labor for
tie coming season, high.

s. ABAKER's DOZEN OF W1vEs.-C lar-
ence E. Davis, the man in custody in Chi
cago, who has thirteen wives claiming him
in different sections of the country, is de-
scribed as small in stature. a lean face,
prematurely aged, though only AZ. and
anything but prepossessipg. His hair and
side whiskers are scanLs and gray. He was
three years ago a drummer in the New
York tea trade, employed by firm in Du
ane street. His canvassing for customers
was interspersed with hunt for wives,
and when arrested he had several addition
al marriage engagements on hand. His de
fence. as far as it is developed, is that his
Canadian wife consented to union. know
ing he had wife living, and hence their
marriage was void; that his reputed wife
in Detroit is not his wife, because she had
4 husband living when she married him;
and ignoring his alleged wives in the East
aud Cincinnati, whose cases have not yet
been presented in the courts. he claims that
Clara Cleveland is his only legal wife. AS
be has made afidavits to the statements
concerning his Canadian and Detroit
spouses, those women will have him indiet-
ed by the grand jury of Cook county on
Monday TOR perjury as well as higamy. On
Saturday night while in jail. having heard
that his thirteenth wife bad arrived in the
CITY to testify against him., he attempted
to hang himself, but was discovered and
stopped.

The Scott County Miracle Worker.

The papers continue to record the mira
cles said to be performed by Mr. Miller Of
Scott county, Va. We may state That the
Peter Whitesel who he successfully prac-
ticed on for cancer, was for many years
resident Of the village of Greenvil!e in
Augusta county. The WythevIlle En-
terprise" of Friday last gives new feat:
Mr.. G. N. Wertz, a photographer at 40.
ingdOn aud known in Wytheyllle, visited
"Dr." Miller of Scott county some days
since in company with paralytlc uncle,
the seat Of the paralysis in the afflicted
gentlemen being in the mouth which de-
prived him of both the powers ot speech
and hearing. The gentlemen have re-
turned and Mr.. WertZ's uncle has been
enab ed both to hear and speak. Mr.
Wertz. whom we know personally. was
also very deaf, but his hearing has been
much improved 10y the wonderful Doctor.
We get this information from gentleman
in this place who gets it by letter from the
family Of Mr.. WertZ. We are unable TO
reconcile the power which enables Miller
to accomplish these cures; neither 90 we
make mention Of them for tie purpose OF
inducing parties to submit other Cases to
him, but we give them as We get them
and our readers can form their own con-
illusions.
