A SERIOUS BLUNDER.
A Lady Nearly Frustrated by O. Pa
emit Medicine.

Alady well-known In the Western Addition
has been great sufferer for years with In.
digestion and dyspepsia. Struck with the
testimonis' praising Joys Vegetable Sarsa-
parilla, she sent for a bottle. The druggist,
not having 1t, talked them into taking another
sarssparillA. Asthel leading sarsaparillas use
mineral blood purifiers, the effect of the
emptying Of iodide Of potash into a stomach
already distressingly delicate was disastrous,
almost prostrating her before the mistake was
rectfed She then called upon Mrs. Fowler,
OF SS Ellis street, whose name was among
those cured by joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla.
hrs. Fowler said II was true that 1t had cured
her. Again reassured, the vegetable COM
pound was sent for and gotten. The gentle
action Of Its vegetable stimulants upon the
liver, kidneys and digestive organs, and its
warm stomach tonics, were the very things
needed, and she began improving and was
her old self within fortnight This sounds
like fiction, but the names can be given II

WHEAT is higher, but exports are
lower than last year. The United

prices can be raised with nothing but
the consumption at home to justify
an advance.

OFFICIAL COGNIzANCE.

WITH intelligent understanding of
the situation Brigadier-G General Casey,
chief of engineers, recommends that
the coming congress appropriate $780,
600 for the improvement of the mouth
of the Columbia river. This is none
too much, the condition of the work,
the progress made, and the improve
ment in the depth of water justifying
ample and adequate appropriation for
the steady and successful prosecution
of the great work in which every res
ident of the Columbia river basin is
interested, and in which also is inter
ested every ship owner who flies his
house flags in Pacific waters.
Under the able management of
superintendent Hegardt most satisfac
tory progress has been made this sea-
son: the work has been put through
without stop or hindrance; stone has
been promptly and sufficiently sup
piled, piles have been driven, and the
jetty extended considerable distance
seaward.
The work has been visited by sew
eral distinguished men of the nation,
all OF whom have expressed pleasure
and satisfaction in the manifest favor
able progress of the work. Another
party of United States senators are
now on the way here from Washing
ton, ID. c., and may be expected to ar
rive here to inspect the jetty next
week.
The recommendation Of Gen. Casey
that 100000 be appropriated does
not make it absolute that such amount
shall be granted. 1t would be wise
economy on the part of our national
legislators to appropriate the sum
that chief engineer Casey advises, or
even more, for the sooner this work
is fin nished, the less, relatively, it will
cost the general government: but it is
not often that the chief engineers
estimates go through both houses of
congress without material modifica-
tions, and it is not probable that more
than S5OO,OO0 will be secured for the
work.
The value of Gen. Casey's figures
lie in the just importance he gives
this great national work, and it is
satisfactory to know that Gen. Casey,
in marked contrast TO the ignorant and
arrogant Parks, has so just knowl
edge of the work as to recommend, Of
ficially, that the next congress appro-
pirate 100000 for its prosecution.

A NEW line of the Pacific steamers
is projected the Mexican-Macao-
Portuguese. The steamers will start
from a Chinese port. call at Macao.
the Sandwich Islands, San Francisco,
and stop at Salina Cruz, in Mexico.
1t is conceded that the projected
steamship line will be practically sup
ported by the government of Mexico,
since its vessels will be mainly en-
ployed for the carrying of Chinese
emigrants.

w IIh the pdIII. compensation we
offer for the carriage of our mails to
other countries by American steam
ships, there can be no successful COM
petition. We literally encourage the
construction of the great railroads
that span the continent, We rightly
spend millions annually in the general
improvement of the rivers and har-
bors, and have a grand plan for the
correction, deepening and improvement
OF our rivers, we do all these things
and much more to bring our vast pro-
ducts from every part of the land to
the seaboard, and then we calmly
wait for foreign ships to do our work
when it will not damage the interests
of the governments that support them,
and we submit to the humiliation
that we have brought upon ourselves.
There is no part of our country that
is not vitally interested in the inaug-
uration and maintenance of a totally
different policy. Until that shall be
adopted we may hope in vain for a
revival of American ship-buIlding and
for ready and profitable trade on a
fair footing withaour foreign rivals.
"THE sugar trust will be success
fully broken up only by the people,
through the courts or through the
legislatures or congress. When the
latter body meets, the duty on sugar,
by which the trust finds it possible to
make its enormous profits of 30 per
cent on stock watered 100 per cent,
will undoubtedly be carefully consid-
cred and should be cut to the quick.
The people should not and will not
submit to pay heavy tribute on a
necessity of life to swell the riches of a
few hundred individuals" So says the
Boston Commercial Bulletin. We
hope that way may be found to punish
and break up the sugar trust without
seriously reducing the sugar duties,
and thus put a stop to the develop
ment OF our beet root and sorghum
industries. If congress will only
take hold of this trust question in
earnest next winter it can soon end
the sugar trust and all other trusts
which are monopolistic in their ten
denotes and therefore at war with the
public welfare.
