What Am I To Do?

The symptoms OF biliousness are un-
happily but too well known. They
differ in different individuals to some
extent. A bilious man IS seldom a
breakfast eater. Too frequently, alas,
ne has an EXCELLENT appetite for liquids
but none foi solids of morning. His
tongue will hardly bear inspection at
any time; it it is not white and flrred
it is rough, az all events.
The digesti Ee system is wholly out
of order and Dia7chea, Consumption
may be a symptom, or the two may al.
ternate. There are often Hemorrhoids
or even loss of blood. There may be
giddiness and often headache and acid.

Approaching the moral sentiment
of the eschool, and the very efficient ser

citizen of the county to whom it was
presented.

stand as greatly in need Of help ant

Remember the Sabbath Day TO keep it holy.''
In connection with, and the day fol-
lowing the annual Sunday School AS
sociation at Mitchell, July 10-11-12,
viz; Friday, July 18th, there will be a
Convention for all interested in trying
to secure Q better Observance OF the
Lords Day throughout our Territory.
The object Of this meeting is to or.
ganize Territorial Sabbath Associa-
ton; arrange for petitioning our Leg.
islature for better and more stringent
Sabbath laws. and for any and all
work by which to cultivate correct
public sentiment and secure q proper
observance OF the day. All churches
w. G. t. U. and other organizations
are cordially invited to take an inter
est in this movement and send dele.
gates. Also all delegates to the S. S

kindly urged to arrange to remain
over Friday and help in this cause.
As the S. S. convention does not be.
gin till Tuesday evening, all who ar.
rive by noon of Tuesday are desired tc
meet in a short session preparatory
for the work Friday.
Delegates to S. S. convention are in
structed to send their names for enter

All who go by train should secure a
certificate of the station agent that

every patriot feels that his coun-
try's liberties are in danger when reck-
lessness, lawlessness and evil of all
kinds are allowed such free range on
Sunday as at present.. NJ. Pullman.

observance with that of other lands,
and not with the standard Of piety

CINCINNATI, April 4.-A special from
the CITY of Mexico says: The Two
Republics published the following
from Celaya: Sunday afternoon about
AS o'clock the bull ring Of Celsya
was crowded with spectators Of the
general national sport. A company
of bull fighters from Leon were sill
playing with bull when a fire sud,
denly broke out on the sunny
side of the plaza. A panic seized upon
the vast assembls &c and o frightful
cat A. strophe was the result. The plaza
was constructed OF wooden mast,
reeds, ETC., and II was due TO this fact
that the majority escaped without in
jury, beiOg able to force an opening
and permit 40 exit at different points,
but many women and children jumped
from the top, q distance Of two OF
three hundred feet, and over one
hundred persons Were seriously woun.
drd. Eighteen lives were lost.
The best society Of Celsys was in at
tendance. 1t was Easter sunday, the
, return OF the ses-on of gaiety after
Lent. There was M unusual number
OF ladies and little children present
and they were the sufferers. No mau
lot his lite. The helpless ones and
mothers who would not desert their
offspring were the victims Of the sp
pslling catastrophe. Celays 10 ia

cliuf engineer of that department in
Montana, leaves for the east tonight
not to return. He will continue IN

make his headquarters elsrw here. The
staff OF employees has been dismissed
or greatly cut down, though probably
some of the most prominent will be
Transferred TO other fields. The maps,
fixtures and materials of the office will
be sent 10 the chief engineers office nt

IL that the Northern Pacific contem-
plate very little construction work in

will probably be finished and there

and al costs for livig and conducting
are higher in this country than abroad;
and,
Whereas, Itiss fact that Montana
wool, grown on a few sheep in Canada
just north OF the 46th parallel, sells for
eight cents less than IL does south Of
that line; and,
Whereas, Wool cannot be grown in
Montana at price any less than that
now ruling; therefore be 1t
Resolved, That we, the woolgrow-
ers OF Montana, in convention assem-
bled, do hereby give il as our unAni-
nous. opinion that the removal Of the
tariff tax would destroy the industry
of wool growing in the United States.
while it would secure no benefit to the
purchaser Of clothing; that after this
industry has been destroyed and the
United States removed as h competition,
the price ut wool will advance till the
consumer will pay more for his wool
than he does today, and that IL wool
growing should cease in thi. country,
aud the appliances aud stock now sx-
isting he disposed OF, the price OF wool
would have to be at least so psr cent.
higher than it is to-day before it would
be profitable 10 again secure tie neces-
ssry plant to conduct the busin ess.
Resolved That while com mpetition
within our borders In growing and
man ufscturing wool has been su flioient
under our tariff to give the consumer
clothing at the very lowest price
st which it could be produced in this
country, with the high price paid to
labor. still the cost of clothing is less
than that which will rule n this work
10 given over to foreign nations.
Resolved, That we hereby denounes
that system oflegislatlon, even in COM
mittee, which will not allow those bsss
qualified to IL struct an opportunity to
stAts the probable effect OF contempla-
ted legislation affecting industries in
which such parties are employed.
The matter of water transportation
and the improvement Of the Missouri
river WAS considered and the follow
lug report was adopted:
Whereas. The Missouri river q. high
water furnishes the largest east and
west waterway on the continent-bs-
ing one thou-and, one hundred miles
in direct line from its mouth to the
head Of navigation; and,
Whereas. The distance between the
longitude Of Fort Benton and that Of
ST. Louis is nearly one-balf the die
tance from the Pacific coast to the
Atlsutic-that 10, l,l00 miles out Of
$500; and,
Whereas, The most successful devel-
opment ofsll the productive industries
tributary to the Missouri basin de-
pends largely, through transportation
rates secured, upon this great water
way; and,
Whereas, For lack Of necessary i'm
provements in the channel the season
OF navigation is now short; Ihersforv
be IL
Resolved. That we believe there is
no river work which the country has
to do that If OF more importance than
that Of improving the longest east and
west waterway ON the continent.
Resolved, That we believe our in
dustry in common with all Others In
Montana, would he vastly benefited
and advanced py improving said
; waterway.
