helnina the Riaht Side.

To help the right side is not only commend
able in a general point of view, but is judi
cious and prudent when that help is enlisted
in behalf of the right side Of the body, just
over the lower ribs in the region of the liver.
The most efficient help is afforded by Hostel
ter'S stomach Bitters, an anti-bliOus medi-
cine of incom parable efficacy. lnactiOn ofthe
liver is accompanied by constipation, SICK
headache, furred tongue, nausea, occasional
vertigo, an unpleasant breath, yellowness OF
the skin and ball of the eye. The author of
these symptoms, liver complaint routed by
the Bitters Is accompanied by them in its
flight. Fever and ague, which always involves
the liver, dyspepsia, rheumatism, debility and
kidney troubles are all maladeS to the early
relief and final cure of which this standard
medicine is adapted. Don't use IL by fits and
starts, but Systematically, that its full effects
may result in a perfect restoration OF health.

has rendered the lives Of residents
IN that locality Iaiser1ble.
The matier has been discussed
widely, not so much for sympathy
With the residents rs OF pity for the
unfortunate infant, doomed to listen
day after day to the same tynipanum-
nnding sounds. It has been noticed
tha: the child is generally asleep, and
By some this was attributed 20 the ad-
m;nistration Of opiates. This led 10
an investigation by a Posr-isTELLt-
GEKcER reporter, y HIGH shows that
there "a quise story connected with
The blind woman. Al the time OF the
visit OF Sets Bros circus TO this

for his mother, wife aud family whom
he said were coming cat FROM the
bast. III mother, he stated, would
occupy her room for week and
would then secure lodging eiseshere.
DR.. Longaker does not know whether
the blind woman Is the mother or wife
OF Turner. but from information
cleaned elsewhere it seems probable
that she is bis mother II appears
that every evening, when the blind

in the city, and may be seen any night
at his stand on the corner OF Wash

he dispeasea hot aausAgcs to the

IL may be that the struggle to keep
the wolf from the door Is 20 difficult
that Turner forgets the imposition ON

tho helpless infant. which Ia liable

THE GILMAN CONTROVERSY.
q Full Statement of the Case from the
Miners Point Of View.

SSfe- 49, A1els1s
To The EpgTos; ] have seen several
letters IN the columns OF your paper
during the past week, some OF them
purporting to give correct statement
Of mining affairs at this place. One
writer said that the mines would go
into operation again ON next Monday.
This will in time be surprise TO the
people az Gilman.
And now ii you viii allow me ! will
try to give your readers short but
correct statement of the controversy
up 10 date from a miners way OF look
ing at it. Up to the sd day OF last
moth the mines bad been operated
en- irely by day work. On the even
Ing OF the 22d OF August the coal
company posted notices that in the
future the mines would he run by
the yara or contract system, and with
the notice there was schedule OF
prices that the company proposed
should be paid for the work.
The coal miners after careful investl-
CATION found AZ 70 accept the COM
Fany's lisf OF prices would compel
/ EN- T. work for less money than was
being paid elsewhere for the same
kin.f OF work. The company ported
list OF prices to govern mining snp-
niles. This the miners promptly ac-
cepted. The company n their notices
sai that in the futuse they would not
recognize the miners committee nor
wousi they keep amy list. The miners
-. IND h. . Far
of kecuing a list, bat insi~t thai their
commit &c shall be recognized. The
coal company during tie interim have
/ ma asie several changes in the schedule
I OF prices. but in such wsy as 10 not
materially benefit the miners. The
last list of prices WAS given @ the
+ miners committee by Mr.. William
+ James, oar new mine foreman, who
very kindly gave rs uHtii the end oi
this week 10 consider II, sid he
tapen beiug assured by the con saitt-e
tat the miners would not accei 81. tins
il u sid that Il they Gid not actepi
the list he would on next Monday pat
new men in 10 work the mjue.
