The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1880-02-27


DR.. When I met your agent
here in September, I had been two years suf-
fering severely with Rheumatism, half of that
| time confined to the house, and three months
al a time to my bed The balance of the
| time 1 was compelled to crawl around upon
| clutches. / used medicines without number,
| including large quantity of morphine, all of
which proved worse than useless. AS to what
l suffered, the English language cannot tell
it to any one who has not tried it's realities.
The first application of Wizard Oil gave
me relief in fifteen minutes, and dispelled my
doubts in twenty-four hours used a bottle
day for ten days. The next morning after
the use of the first bottle,
left my Clutches at home and
walked down town without them
for the first time in two years.
Since thenT have not used them, and cannow
split cord of wood as quick as any man In
Adrian. Some of my friends at first thought
such sudden cure would KLINE, but wanted
a change, though it should be death.
That all who read this may know how /
have been, | will say, when I commenced
using Wizard Oil, I could reach around my
leg above the knee with one hand.
L was reduced to a mere sl1ele-
ton, and most of the time
when L moved upon
clutches, or tried to stand
without thems L could not raise
either foot from the floor.
I used fifteen bottles in all, but have not used
any for two months. l now feel as well as
ever did in nyIife, and have gained thirty five
pounds in flesh. But 1 must tell you it seems
almost like dream. You can refer to me as
often as you wish, and hundreds of the citi-
zens of Adrian will testify to the truth of
my statements.

Pope on the Poor Lo.

Washington, 13.-The annual reports
of General Pope are now made public.
General Pope gives det-iled history Of
the troubles with the Indians in Colorado
and New Mexico, which he states have
not yet been wholly settled. OF the
situation in the new country, General
Pope says: "With the present military
arrangements and the provisions of agree
ments with the Utss, there will certainly
be no trouble this winter. He attributes
the outbreak otYictorio to the determined
purpose of the interior department to
effect the removal of his band to the San
Carlos agency, Arizona, and says: II do
not know the reasons of the interior
department for insisting upon the re-
moval, but certainly they should be
cogent to justify the eat trouble and
severe losses occssisned by the attempt to
thus coerce removals." One serious
trouble with the Indians always has been
in relation to their food, and General
Pope recommends to the secretary of the
interior that he forbid the Indian agents
to punish VI seek to control the sections of
Indians by Withholding provisions from
them.

A SAINTED IDIOT,
Who Claims to be q Disciple
of the Gentle Savior.

St. Louis, 13.-In the Congregations
council, DR. Storrs spoke encouragi.gly
Of the far west. In Dakota there were
already twenty two Congregational
churches, and in nine years, with proper
encouragement. he believed there would
be 200 in Colorado. Twelve churches
had been added the last year, and in Utah,
Wyoming and Idaho there were similar
great religious fields requiring only de
Vslopnent. Rev. DR.. Noble, Of Uhion
Park Church, Chicago, read very able
paper on the new west, in which he de-
nounced Mormonism in strong terrs.
He alluded to Utah as made by
that faith a laboratory Of filth,
craft and cruel wrongs for
three decades He sud Congress and the
courts had done next to nothing to check
or put down the monstorous evil. From
MCrm0nism the doctor drifted TO the
Jesuiti.m of New Mexico and the Roman
Catholic Church was held responsible
for all the lawlessness and disorder In
territories whore Morrnonism had not
spread. To meet these great evils he said
government must send the best men 10 its
frontier for its officials. Preachers and
t. achers must be sent, especially the lat
ter, as the7 excited less prejudice than
the preachers.

ITALY HAS voted 81, $4,000 for the
purpose of erecting 3 monument to
Victor Emmanuel, and has offered al
prizes SIC. 600. $1,000 and $4,000 for
the best three models for the pro-
posed structure. The sculptors Of
all nations are invited to compete.
If We are not mistaken, America lost
a greater hero than Victor Em-
manuel many decades ago. He was
the father and ssvior Of the country,
and We believe that the nation some
time after his death undertook the
erection of monument to him, bat
has done little more than begin the
work. Italy ia a poverty-stticken,
tax.ridden kingdom, but it is roI so
poor Is to be unable to remember it's
heroes. America is rich and prosper
GUS, but it cannot afford to preserve
the memory of its greatest ones.
