4 Picneer's Experience Uith
 Hoods iSars0p0ri}{d.

IT am pioneer in this county, having been here 90 years. Four years ago my little son Ellery became blood-poisoned by impure virus in vaccination. His arm swclled terribly, causing great agony; physicians said the arm must be amputated, and even then his recovery would be doubtful One day read about blood puri- fer, to me, and was surprised to learn that it was prepared by c. I. Hood, with whom l used to go to school in Chelsea, VI decided to have my boy try Hoods sarsaparilla, and was much rratifed when it seemed to help him. He con tuued to grew better as we gave him the sarsa- parilla and having used bottles is now entirely cured. As Hoods sarsaparilla has accomplished such wonderful results, recommend it all pos. sibIy can" JEROME N. SLEEPER, Upper Lake, Lake Co.,, Cal

the people can be better imagined
than d sscribed. Every impromptu

affected through a kitchen window.
Mr.. and Mrs. Keeler, with two small
children, slept in the bed room through

Keller was awakened first by q man
who was pulling the bed clothes and
muttering something. She rose up in

again and told her not to make a
noise or be would kill her. Mr.. Keeler
then awoke and the man also threat

bedroom while two others drilled. q

mained on guard, sat in q rocking
chair and told the couple in the bed
not to cry out or move, or he would
shoot them. When the others had

the cash box into the bed room, took

FIVE SOLDIERS WOUNDED.


a Desperate Encounter With a Band
OF Mountain Outlaws.
A special from Harlan Court House
Tenn, dated the 10th inst, says: "a
deadly fight occurred at LEO O'Clock,
seventeen miles east up in the Black
mountains. between dstail OF the
state troops, consisting OF sixteen pri-
Yates, Lieut.. Milton and Sergt. Pul-
han, and about thirty outlaws who
were fortified in an old barn. Five Of
the soldiers were wounded. It Is not
known how many OF the outlaws were
killed. as they still had possession OF
the barn. Corp. Blanton was sent in
after reinforcements and knows but
little, as hs left Immediately af
ter the firing began. The troops
have the barn surrounded, and
it will be impossible for those on the
inside to make their escape, and the
only two roads which lead from the
place OF action are cut of by pickets
who are instructed to allow no one to
pass toward town, AZ it was thought
best to keep the news OF the conflict
from the people until after the rein.
forcements had reached the place.
The particulars. as we'll as can be
learned are as follows: Capt. Gather,
who is the commanding officer, was
informed that body of lawless men,
some ot whom mad been indicted for
various offenses, were fortified against
the law at the above mentioned local
ity and had refused to surrender to
the civil authorities. He was asked
for a detail OF his men to 60 out with
some OF the civil officers for the
purpose OF arresting them and he at
once sent sixteen privates In charge OF
Lieut.. Milton, Sergt. Pullian and
Corp. Blanton. They left camp about
$50 in the afternoon expecting to find
the men they we're pursuing In q pri-
vate house, about 900 yards beyond
the barn, from which they were fired
upon. The attack was not looked for
at that point, and came so unexpect-
edly that il demoralized the soldiers
for q moment or two, but they soon
rallied, surrounded the barn, and be"
gan firing into it from every direction,
when it was thought best to cease &C.
tion and hold the fort until the rein
forcements arrived with more ammu-
milton. It was believed that q severe
fight would take place as soon as ad-
ditional troops reached the place, for
the outlaws are fortified. well armed
with Winchester rides and swore that
they would not surrender and the sol.
diers were determined and wanted re-
venge for those who bad been shot
down.

motive to lift it to the highest
level OF profitable employment, be-
lieve that they offer in the bill all re-
lief which tariff legislation can give to
il. A critical examination OF the SUBJ
ject will show that agriculture is sui
iering chiefly from most damaging
foreign competition in our home mar
ket. The increase In Importation OF
agricultural products since 1850, has
been enormous, mounting from $40.-
900, 600 to more than 1856, 600. 600
In 1889. ... ~

Gates Of tariff ior revenue only invite
the farmers OF this country, is to-day
crowded with the products OF the
cheapest human labor the earth af.
lords. All over the old world there is
rush OF their surplus to that mar
ket and il is to such contest as this,
that free trade would allure American
agriculture. ....
With the foreign grain market un-
der the sway OF such an oppressive
competition; with the foreign cattle
and pork market depressed End OBJ
structed by various ruinous measures
OF restriction; with foreign agricultural
products crowding our home market,
your committee have recommended
an increase upon agricultural pro.
ducts"
With view to increasing the number
OF gainful occupations open to the
farmer, the committee has recon-
mended bounty to growers OF silk, OF
the internal revenue sections, the CON-
mittee, after recitiDg them, says that
it has recommended the repeal Of all
statutes imposing restrictions upon
farmers and growers OF tobacco, so
that they will sell with freedom.
In conclusion, tine report says the
advance OF duties on agricultural pro.
ducts would incr ease revenues II I'M
ports continue to be as large as those
during the past year. But as they
are tor the most part articles which
this country can produce to the ex-
tent OF our wants increased duty re.
duces importations SO that revenues
will not be increased, and our farmers
will hold their own markets. The
same result will follow in other cases
OF increase, and when the revenue is
in special cases increased, the increase
will be far less than Is indicated by q
computation based on the cry that
importations will continue as large as
under lower duties. A minority re-
port signed by all OF the democratic
members oil the committee has been
submitted.
