Scrofula in one Of the most asgravating forms.
At one time had no less than thirteen large
assesses over and around my neck and throat,
continually exuding an offensive mass Of
bloody matter disgusting 20 behold, and
almost intolerable to endure. 1t is impossible
to fully describe my su1erings, as the case
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
three years Of misery, having been treated by
three physicians, | was worse than ever.
Finally, on the recommendation Of W. J.
IIuntley, druggist, OF Lockport, was induced
TO try Hoods Sarsaparilla. And now, after
having taken twelve bottles, within the last
twelve months, the scrofulous eruptions have
entirely ceased, and the assesses have all
disappeared, except the unsightly sears which
are daily becoming smaller by degrees and

became known to US, two men were
sent off to right the wrong. 1t wa
found that the man hid promised
the Indian that if he would transport
his family up to the Cowlitz river
and assist him to the point he had
selected for home, he would in one
year pay him, in addition to what be
paid down, the sum of $25. When
the time was up, the Indian called
for his money, but the man could
not pay. The Indian could make
no excuses in his own mind for the
"Boston man." for he had been
made to believe that the Bostons
were a people that never made
promises without being able to full
fill them. So the two men-being
the judge and jury and sherff-after
hearing the case, drove up the delin-
qnent's stock and asked the Indian
which animal in the lot would satisfy
him. He selected a two-year old
heifer. 1t was delivered to him and
he went his way rejoicing.
To refer back to the one statement
of DR.. Tolmie that he would let US
have what goods ne had to spare, l
will explain why this precau'ion was
necessary. At that day the Hudson
Bay company sent one shipload of
supplies from England annually to
the Columbia river. There the
goods were parceled out and for
warded to the different stations
Fort Nisqually receiving its quota.
And this quota was again divided
into
TWELVE EQUAL PARTS.
Each part representing one month
of the year. That which was laid
aside for the month of jay, they
would not sell in June. Therefore,
if we desired to purchase a blanket
or any other article of goods. aud it
was found that all of the goods
which had been laid aside for that
particular month or for previous
months OF the year had been sold,
or if the books showed that the time
which had elapsed since the purchase
of the last blanket was too brief a
period to have worn out that blanket
and that there should not exist any
nescessity for the purchase of n new
blanket, we should be compelled to
wait until the first of the month, or
until such time as the doctor thought
we really needed tho goods for our
own use. and not for the purpose of
trade. A. b. RABBEsoN.

workings of the law. To get down
to the root of the matter, they say,
that any prohibitory law which does
not exercise a rigid police force and
use a detective system that would be
expensive for our small cities would
be utterly valueless, while it would
practically take the regulation Of the
liquor traffic out of the hands Of the
local authorities. and place it III ia
hands of reckless characters, whose
vicious tendencies would fiud agree.
able and profitable scope in organ
ling and perfecting machinery by
which the Government could be
cheated. There might be no open
saloons, but there would be secret
dens of darkness, in which the ille-
gal traffic would be carried on, with
out the slightest regard to decepcy.
On the other hand the editorial sup
porters of the affirmative present
staggering array of familiar figures
showing up the enormity of the sa-
loon business, and claiming that the
temperance reform cannot be sue

tory laws. The latter class holds
that to license an evil is to make it
respectable, and that were the temp
tation of the open saloon to young
men removed the coming genera
tons will be more apt to grow up in
sobriety. The arguments on either
side are forcibly put, and moral,
thinking men and women are to be
found ranged on opposite sides in
such proportions as to render the re-
suit in June q doubtful one, espe-
cially in the large cities.

The latest record of the triumph"
of prohibition comes from the books
of the United States Collector OF
Internal Revenue in Leavenworth,
Kansas. 1t appears that during the
past year 1882 retail liquor dealers
stamps were issued, and that there
was an increase OF seventy.five re-
tail liquor establishments in the
State. This does not look as if the
liquor business were extinguished.
1t rather seems to be growing under
a most rigid prohibitory liquor law.

The charcoal works at Elk Rapids,
Mich, embrace many new features,
all of which arc intended to save
and utilize the former waste products
of charcoal burning. These works
are said to consume 10000 cords
of wood yearly; and even the smoke
is utilized and manufactured into
chemicals, by being blown by inn
mense fans into q purifier, from
which it eventually comes in the
form of an acid that is clear as am
ber. From the acid are produced
acetate of lime, alcohol, tar and gas.
Each cord of wood contains some
$4,000 cubic feet of smoke; and 2,
800, 900 feet Of smoke, handled every
twenty-four hours, produce $1,000
of acetate of lime, 200 gallons Of al.
cohol, etc.

the whole groundwork OF organized
eff r; % carry prohibition. He says:
II would infoim those persons
who have been so willing to question
my sincerity as c. ristian, that if
they will find any command of God,
or Christ, in the Bible, where it says:
Thou shalt not drink liquor, nor bar
ter in liquor, then will be incon-
sistent if I do not do all in my power
TO drive it out Of the land. Does
the Bible put liquor down in any of
its pages as an immoral thing. or
article, because of its use, as it WAS
used then as now? If it does say it
is immoral, l should be very incon-
sistent if l would not give helping
hand 10 tear the liquor traffic down."
Here, it seems, is fine opportun-
ity for some of our Christian friends
to silence the blasphemer, but they
must not assume, as did a late
speaker in Columbia Hall, that
alcoholic liquors were unknown till
the 10th century, or the lamentation
Who hath sorrow, who hath woe,'
ETC., will have but little force. The
same Christian writer In RereiIe saws:
"Will the law prohibit? T will
answer the question by asking every
voter in the county to read the drug
section of that thin excuse for prohi-
hition. It does no. limit any guam
TRY, nor how many times per week
the druggist shall sell to any one
person, nor does it require the appli-
cant to be known to the druggist; in
fact it builds great strong house
around whiskey. gin, brandy, wine,
beer and ale, and leaves the door,
not particularly ajar, but open, With
a bottle or demiiohn to the size of
five gallons, free for all who will 60 in
and get it by simply signing paper
telling the druggist that it is for
mechanical, scientific or sacramental
purposes. Make q law that has some
shadow Of. prohibition in it, not a
cats paw fer political bummers, and
Office seekers hobbies, to ride into
office on. My morality is to obey
the decalogue as near as human can.
Druggists have no better right 10
barter in liquor than a hardware
man, or dry goods or q grocery
man. Why place monopoly in the
hands OF few, By lac, while the
whole country at this present time is
all afire, striking, boycotting mon
opolies
His third objection to the law is
on the score of economy. He says
that besides the loss entailed of the
license money that .
"The law is SO badly constructed
that there will be litigation on the
part of those who try to enforce it,
causing thousands of dollars to he
wasted in fighting it, with the result
like all faulty laws. the county foot
ing the bills of constables, magis-
trates and jurors. Taxpayers take
warning. look we'll before you cast a
vote for more taxes; fur better to wait
one year and have law that will
stand the fire brand OF liquor men.
For one, l am prohibitionist, not a
pretender, I can see beyond my

The Territorial Convention

The fact that very early conven-
ton of the Democratic party of this
Territory is asked by Mr.. voorhees,
and his particular followers meets
with the greatest and most uncom-
promising opposition FROM the Dem
ocracy of The Territory. With the
exception of Thos. Burke of Seattle,
and tho Hon. C. H. Warner of this
city, the Territorial committee, so
far as heard from, arc unit against
any such extremely early convention.
They advance numerous arguments
why the convention should be held
late, and the Statesman speaks by
the card in stating that the conven-
ton will not be held until after the
Republicans hold theirs. If, in
spite of the numerous protests piled
in, it should be forced, it will be the
death blow to all Democratic chances
of success at the next election. 1t is
hard for us to see the reason, if any
exists, why the convention should be
held earlier than the last of Septem.
