A Sure Cure Found at Last. No

A sure cure for the Blind, Bleeding
Itching and liberated Piles has been dis.

remedy, called DR.. Williams Indian
Ointment. A single box has cured the

Willisms' Ointment sbsorbs the tumors,
allays the intense itching particularly at
night after getting warm in bed), acts as
a poultice, gives instant and painless re-

position. Then people laughed
louder, and asked each other If the
handsome Kentuckian really was 9
beautiful idiot. who could be played
upon and made ridiculous in this
public manner without knowing it.
As the Insignificant papers of the
west occasioGs!ly mentioned that
Murray was candidate for
the cabinet. the Governor seemed
to ssel! in importance, and
fairly disgusted some of those
who had been dancing in
attendance upon the vain pea
cock. Murray copld scarcely content
himself 10 remain in Utah. He was
anxious to get east, where be fOolishly
thought he could be working up the
cabinet business. It seems ridiculous
and preposterous that Eli q. Murray,
a comparatively unknoWn Top from
Louisville, could think of becoming 8
cabinet minister. Yet it is a solemn
fact that be does 60 think and has
been scheming to tina! end for weeks
past. There are people here who
know well and intimately General
Garfield; we AK them il they can in
taeir Imagination, so lower him in
moral, intellectual and manly stat
ure as to see him choose Murray for
a state adviser? We would as soon
expect Garfield to stand on his head
in public on the day OF his Inaugural
ton. Watterson himself would rant
and rave like a mailman if he had
the faintest idea that Murray would
be taken into the cabinet with such
men as Blaine, Allison, Wilson,
Morton, Cameron, storrs, Mile, or
others who have been mentioned for
secretaryships. Even the editor of our
down street contemporary who, in a
ocular mood, first fed the tsffy to the
coxcomb, would be shockingly dis
gusted, and want to deny that he
was a republican, and that Garfield
was bis choice for president, should |
the executive show no better sense or
greater wisdom than would be mani
tested in the taking of Murray for
one Of his state ministers. Henry Wat
terson is IN disreputsble business in
standing by Murray in this theft OF a
territory, and does himself no credit
as a politician, editor or man by ap.
plaudipg his fellow citizsn's course
in this steal. The exposure OF Mr
Wa!terson's little game will not help
that gentleman any in the eyes Of the
public. As to Murray. he will soon
begin to sink into that insignifcance
for which his talents so admirably fit
him.
