The Indians and the Earthquake
susanville Advocate.

Tho Indians hereabout are very bad ly frightened over the recent shake ups, and fear that this portion of Cali fornia will be engulled. There is an old Indian in Willow Creek valley, who has seen the snows of ninety odd winters, and who declares that he can remember when a noun tain near Frank Fleury's place on Willow creek, sank and water surg ed up covering the whole country
 and that the water again subsided and the mountain rose once more. There is tradition among the Indians here that such a thing has occurred many times, but this old fellow declares that he can remember such an occurrence

The Gum to Chew.

It is good plan for those who wish to improve their throats to chew pure spruce gum, pine gum or that of the compass wood of the western prairies, for the ex- ercise of the jaws develops the throat, and the resinous qualities of the gum strengthen digestion I don't mean to recommend the habit of chewing gum, as practiced by Its devotees, but there never was an unsightly habit which had SO much to be said for it. Rank dyspep- tics, with the coating eaten off their stomachs, as the doctors say, find relief to their cravings by chewing pure spruce gum, and all agree that the lungs are better for it. The compound of paraffine and sweet stuff sold for gum has nothing to recommend it.-St. Louis Republic.

The Decreased Circulation.

The amount per capita OF money
in circulation il the United States
in 1865 was $40 81 and everything
was booming then. The amount in
circulation in 1888 was $l7.29 and
business was fat as q pan cake. In
view of these facts it is not matter
of surprise that people who depend
upon their earnings by honest labor
complain of hard times. Our finan-
cial policy is such, however, that
there are $800,000,Q00 in round
numbers piled up in the treasury,
set aside for certain purposes, much
of it, which purposes however, never
draw it from the treasury vaults and
send it out into circulation. Our
mines are producing hundreds of
millions of silver. which our govern
ment at the behest of Great Britain
and German bond holders, demone-
tized and it is sold to England at
her own price and sent to India,
where silver is at par with gold and
wheat and cotton purchased, brought
back and placed in competition with
our farm products in European mar
kets. In short we sell our silver to
Great Britain at q ruinous discount,
to enable her colonies to compete
with our farmers, in place ofkeeping
it as basis to increase our depleted
circulating medium, revive prices
and give business quickeDing i'm
pulse. No changes that can be
made in our tariff laws either up OF
down can remedy this evil and put
the farming industry on its feet
again.
From 1865 to 1875, while the
world enjoyed the product of both
gold and silver, yielding annually
5000 10000 prices rose about 33 ]
per cent. Since one half of the
worlds product of gold and silver
has been cut off by the demonetiza-
ton of silver, prices have fallen in
the brief period of IA years to a
lower point than they reached in

As everv reader Of this paper knows, it
has become one of the fine arts to write
attractive and interesting advertisement
especially medical ones.
Now IT seems to us that it, for Instance,
the worldwide advertisements of Warmers
Safe Remedies would adopt style whereby
they could work in startling story Of, say
wolves, we believe the immense sales Of
their medicines could be still more largely
increased. We give them the benefit Of the
idea at any event. Let it commence like
this:
Patter Patterl Patter!
There it is again. 1t is not Fifty yards
from where he last halted. The steps are
too light for those Of an Indian. A grizzly
would rush upon its victim with roar Of
defiance and anger. A panther would hurl
himself through thirty feet of space, with a
scream TO unnerve the hardest hunter.
"Wolves," whispers the hunter, as howl
suddenly bursts upon his ear.
Wolves the gaunt grizzly woles of the
foot-hills-thin and poor and hungry and
savage-the legs tireless-the mouth full of
teeth which can crack the shoulder hone of
buffalo. He can see their dark forms
fitting from point to point-the patter Of
their feet upon the parched grass proves
that he is surrounded-yet no more in dan
ger, and no more effectually surrounded
than he who trifes with the symptoms Of
kidney disease. And you, reader, know
whether or not you are victim to its in
sidious encroachment. Ifyour back aches,
If your eyesight is failing, if your appetite
is tickle, If your urine is not clear and Of a
pale straw color, do not hesitate on the
prairie of danger, but flee TO the nearest
heaven of safety, and resort to The only
known cure for kidney and liver troubles,
Warmers Safe Cure. 1t is duty you owe,
no: only to yourself but to your family and
society at large.
Delays are dangerous.
Had the traveller not been overtaken in
the night, and unarmed, the wolves would
have had no terrors for him. We warn
you just now, in broad daylight, before the
wolves of disease sink their poisoned fangs
deeply into your flesh and the night of death
settles down upon you, to stop your ears to
prejudice and bigotry, and to fly to safety
through the means we have pointed out.

men who have had sufficient training in
public assemblies to present their side in a
creditable and commanding manner, on all
subjects that may arise. This is particularly
necessary in the Senate where we have but
one member from each county, and on
whom the success of every measure will
largely depend. In the House we have

The Purchase of Silver.

WAsnNdToN, April Ex-senator Stew
art, OF Nevada, had long interview with
Secretary Window. yesterday, in which
he tried TO persuade the secretary to in
crease the monthly purchase of silver.
This the Nevada senator argued was the
best way to reduce the surplus. Secretary
Window could not see just how the sur
pins was reduced by giving ont greenbacks
and getting silver in return. lie said he
had some 20,00O,000 OF silver dollars in
the treasury vaults, some of which he
would be very glad to part with. To pur-
chase more silver would be simply chang
ing the shape Of the surplus from gold
and paper to silver. Mr.. Stewart made
the point that the purchase of silver
brought millions OF money from the treas
ury and distributed it among the people.
MIR. Window stated that it would be i'm
possible. to take any action in the in
creased purchases OF silver until the sub
ject has been very carefully weighed and
considered by the president and discussed
in the cabinet meetings. 1t is understood
the Nevada senator will soon have an in
terview with President Harrison about
the matter and afterward it is expected
1t Will become special subject for discus
sion in cabinet meetings. ,..
