The Brenhsm Banner folds Its ears to
discourse concerning the unsavory
Washington county outrage:
The game Of the designing sneaks who
are trying to stir mp the alleged WASH
ington county outrages, IL has leaked
out, is to work for twofOld purpose,
and that Ia not only to make capital In
the national election for the republican
party, but to have all Of the prominent
citizens and campaign workers sum
moned before the committee at WASH
ington just at the time their services will
be needed at home, In the h pc Of regain
ing their lost ground In this county.
The good people OF old Washington
county who desire an honest admins
tration Of local affairs must begin early
and astir themselves actively for the fall
contest.
These being the Banners sentiments
concerning the ballot box outrage and
the murder which followed, will the
Banner give deliveranoe OF opinion on
the Wharton murder, and does 1t call
the seven murdered men, who were the
victims there, sneaks also?

SAVED MY MOTHERS LIFE

Ever sinceI can remember, my mother has
suffered from milk leg. Nothing would do
her any good. She had the best medical tai
cnt, but they all did her no good, She suffered
with her leg for thirty years and never knew
a well day. She would have TO sit up half the
night, holding up her leg and moaning. She
had no peace. She used all the best known
remedies in the country without effect. /
asked her to try your CUTICURE REMEDIES.
Got her bottle of CUTICURA RESOLvENT, and
she took it, and has taken in all about six or
seven bottles, and now she is a well woman
today. Her leg is entirely healed, and her
health was never better. She can go out ev-
cry day, something she has not done in ten
years, so you see cannot help stating to you
about your wonderful CUTICURA REMEDIES.
You have saved my mothers life. / cannot
find words to express my gratitude / have
advertised your CUTICURA REMEDIES far and
near.

HUNTTNG FOR 4 LOST MISEh.
HE HAD $40. 900 IN HIS POCKETS AND IS THOUGHT
TO HAVE MET WITH FOUL PLAY.

Two men, who would not give their names but
said that they lived in Grand-st., called at Police
Ueadouarters last evening They were looking for
william Johnston who had been missing for several
days and when he went away the strangers said had
several thousand dollars with him. The records were
searched I'm the Bureau of Information, aud IT was
found that Johnston had been arrested a. the BO"cry
and Houston-st at / a. III. Thursday and was taken
TO the Mulberry Street Station. lie dressed In
rags and said at the station that he had not eaten
food for several days, and he could moi get any
money By begging, his appearance was against him.
Ing and the Justice fined him go He pleaded his
poverty but when he saw that he would have to go
to the Island he tore open the lining of his coat,
drew out roll of bills and paid his fine He also
had four saving bank books with him which showed
that he had a balance of over $4,000 in them.
The strangers said last evening that they thought
that some one had cn;iccd Johnston away and robbed
him after he left the courtroom. Johnston was in the
oyster business in this city for several years and used
TO spend money freely. He is about fifty years old
About Two years ago he left tho city for few weeks
and when he returned had large amount Of money
with him. Where he got the money IS mystery,
but ever since he has led the life of miscr. He
would not spend cent for food begged everything
he could, borrowed money from his friends I'm small
sums whilc he had always plenty of money slowed
away in his filthy rags. During this winter his feet
were frozen because he walked around with his toes
sticking out OF his shoes He lived in a dirty hove
in Sprng-st near Crosby. This place is filed with
Italians Of the mcanest kind, but Johnston so
much worse that they would not have anything 10 do
with him. An alarm will be sent out by the police
today
