About a year ago l had blood poion
and it attacked my throat in a very
severe form. / got a physician to
treat me, and for three months he
burned my throat out every day. Du-
ring the last three weeks | was under
his care it was almost impossible for
to sallow even a spoonful of wa
ter. l was reduced to l01 pounds in
weight and the doctertold me l could
not live. l gave up his medicines
and began taking Swift's Specific, u.s.
ing the gargle directed in the circular.
1t was with great difficulty, I could
swallow the medicine, though it was
pleasant to the taste but I persevered
in it, and in three weeks l could not
tell my feelings tell that my throat
ever was affected. / could swallow
anything l wished without the slight
est difficulty, and seemed entirely
well. 1 continued the medicine, and
in less than four months l had gone
up in weight sixty-nine pounds, now
weighing 40 pounds. This may
sound fishy to some, but If the doubt

truthfulness of my statement estab-
lished.

"Give it to them. You have but
little room in the GAZETTE, but there
are no two columns in any paper in
the State which bristle with more his
torIc facts, both biblical and secular,
with clearer arguments all done up in
fine English. Some of the prohibi.
tionists in this neighborhood will
not subscribe for the GAZETTE, but
will send a mile and borrow it. 1t is
not that we care a cent for the whis-
ky, but prohibition ia absolutely ex-
tinguishing the rights of the individ-
ual as to whether he shall drink at
all anything stronger than water.
When that sumptuary law of prohi-
bition is fastened upon u State the
door will be opened for the exercise
of priestcraft; and who that knows
anything about history does not know
that it always terminates in conflict
of church and State. Let us keep the
church out of the State and the State
out of the church, and our liberties
may stand the pressure of centuries.
Go ahead, Col. You are doing good
service for the best interests of the

Thus writes a correspondent out in

we return him our thanks for the
compliment paid us. Let us say to
the people everywhere, don't be afraid
to read if you want information.
Reading ON only one side is a fore
gone conclusion, and proves anyone
a bigot, whether in politics or reli-

People must not confuse the idea that
an anti-prohibitionist is necessarilya
drinker of whisky or the friend of the
Incorporate as such; nor must all
prohibitionists be regarded as the en-
emies of whisky, as many OF them use
it privately, as we have reason to be-
lieve. The question in all of its RAM
ifications rises higher than any of
these separately or in the conglolner-
ate. 1t is a question of personal
rights, vested privilege, and ancient
usages which no country for a centu-
ry has had the temerity to tackle un-
til your modern American prohibit
tionists arose.

Scinda's Band "sot" down on the
Temperance Union last Sunday; and
the colored people everywhere will do
the same thing when they can be in
formed of the motive of this whole
prohibition move. The negroes sin
is not drunkenness, for as a race they
are the most temperate people on the
globe outside of the Mohammedan
countries. The temperance unions
want the votes of these colored men,
and are operating on the weakness
and vanity Of their wives and sisters,
in order to control the ballot box in
favor Of this most oppressive and dan
gerous law ever offered to the intelli-
gence of free people. And we say to
our colored friends, both women and
men, abhor it. No matter how pure
and disfnterested are the motives of
the good ladies carrying OH this tenn
perance craze, there are politicians
and ambitious priests in the back
ground, each one with "his little AK
to grind" as we think,
The Grenada gazette. (Grenada, Miss.) 1885-18??, 1886-05-29

1t must not be taken for granted
that all the ladies in this town belong
to the temperance union. There are
quite a number who hold the whole
business of prohibition at arms
length; who believe that 1t is a sub
ject for thoughtful, intelligent and
honest men to deal with, and not for
the women. Temperance in the alb
stract they favor, but putting it in the
shape of law under the tyranny ofpro-
hibition they respectfully decline as
out of their sphere of duty; and these
ladies will rank with any those seek
ing to shape the ballot box for prohi-
bition, in all the graces of person, So
cial accomplishments, refinement of
manners and educational advantages.
But they have no reproach for others
with whom they differ.

The Reception Headquarters Of the
O. A. r. in the Armory Hall. corner Of
Los Angeles and Requena streets, is well
worth visiting. The decorations, which
have been the work of enthusiastic
young ladies, are as fine as could be
done. Everything in the hall is well
arranged and has an inviting look.
The good taste that has turned the
gloomy looking hall into what it is de-
serves more than a passing notice. One
of the first objects that catches the
visitors eye on entering is the word
"Welcome, and the manner in which
il is placed and it's looks makes one feel
that they are really welcome in the full
sense of the word. This beautiful en-
blem was executed by Mrs. E. Nlttinger,
the wife Of one Of our ba. mess men. 1t
is worked in three colors. red, white and
blue. The letters are made Of cotton,
and the frame is trained with evergreens.
The tables are laden with flowers Of the
rarest and choicest variety, and are re-
newed every day. The other decora-
tions are very beautiful and arranged
with great taste and care. On the east
wall is commission signed by Presi-
dent Lincoln, June llth. 1864, appoint
ing William Littleboy Commissioner Of
Subsistence.
On the same wall is large picture Of
the Goddess Of Liberty. This is made
by hand and was done by Comrade s. T.
| Title of Sierra Madre. Another pre-
cious souvenir ON exhibition is a copy of
the Emancipation Proclamation, with
the signature of President Lincoln.
This is the property Of Charles Maltby
of 529 Olive street. American flags,
fower trimmings, portraits Of Generals
of the army, the surrender Of Gen. Lee,
and other things appropriate make the
decorations complete and the headquar.
tiers inviting.

For the past few days United States
Deputy Marshal has been nosing around
summoning several Of the Oldest citizens
Of the county to appear as witnesses in
the Muscupiabe land grant case, which
comes up before the United States Cir
cult Court in San Francisco this morn
ing. The object of the suit is to prove
the survey Of the grant, which was
made in 1853, and for this purpose cit-
gems who were here at that time were
summoned perhaps twenty-five or
thirty from this county. Among those
from this city and vicinity are Messrs.
L. Jacobs, Hardin wager. Hon. w. A.
Conn, Ed. Daily, James Waters.
The Muscupiabe rancho is about eight
miles in length by about three miles in
width, extending from half mile be-
yond the northern limits of this city to
Lytle creek. 1t comprises about IS, 900
acres; though 1t Ia said the original grant
called for 400 acres; and the pending
litigation over the alleged extension of
the grant is the cause Of the recent rush
for claims.
In lS45 Miguel White obtained q
grant from the Governor of Mexico for
one league Of land, more or less. The
land was situated about Lytle Creek,
and in the foothills there stood, until .
few years ago, the old adobe fortress,
In which White lived, and from which
he defended himself against the Piute
and Utah Indians. Subsequently White
sold the ranch to John Hancock, who
secured government patent in 1873,
for zone league of land, more or less, or
IS, coo acres" The officials did net no
tice the mistake that the "3S, COO acres
extended the one league of 400 acres
about seven fold. The patent was con-
firmed San Bernardino Morning Hour.

the stranger threw it, but instead of
throwing it on board the vessel it struck
