Attention is called to the advertisement
of the Liebig World Dispensary and inter
national Surgical institure, located at 400
Geary street, San Francisco.
This well-known and widely popular in
stitute is no new applicant Tor the atten-
ton of the readers of the Examiner, having
long been patron o; this paper, but like
some of the other good things OF this life,
the Liebig dipensary only improves with
age.
Year by year DR.. Liebig g. Co.'S reputa-
ton increases with the increasing number
of those who are indebted TO the surgical
skill and medical attainments of its staff Of
physicians for delivery from the tortures
of disease and restoration to the enjoyment
of health.
We wish the Liebig Worlds dispensary
many years of yet increasing usefulness
and prosperity.
Branches have been established in Kan
sas city, Mo-; Butte city, Mont. Seattle,
Wash, and many of the leading cities, with
a capital of nearly million dollars.

THE LETTING OF GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS
Consider the immense amount it takes to
run the government For 1891 IL is esti-
mated that three hundred and forty-one
millions of dollars will have TO be spent by
the different departments and this money
goes out through all sorts of ways and
through all sorts of agents. Think OF the
new navy which takes millions at clip!
Of the pensions which will eat up some
place between one hundred and one hun
dred and fifty millions of dollars, and the
contracts for army, navy and Indian sup
plies which eat up millions more! What is
to prevent colusion between contractor
and officials You may make the safe
guards as many as you please, the only
surety is in the honesty of the government
officials and that these are honest, the rec
Ords OF the past generation show.
MONEY IN CROPS AND SUPREME COURT
DECISIONS.
The information as to the crops as got
ten at the agricultural department might
be another means of money making to the
secretary or any one connected with 1t.
The brokers in Wall street have their
agents here, who telegraph these reports
the moment they are issued and who make
| big money by buying before they get out
! through the Associated Press. The justices
of the supreme court pass upon cases every
week which affect the value of the most
important STOCKS of the country. They
get but ten Thousand dollars year but
they settle matters involving many millions
during their terms. When the telephone
cases were before the court few years age
a friend of mine was offered a fortune if he
could get hint as to the decision upon
them in advance but he could not though he
was c'ose friend of Judge Waite's. In all
the history of the court, no instance of cor
ruption is known, and few men would have
the temerity to ask q supreme court justice
for a pointer on decision about to be
rendered. FRANK C. CARPENTER.

AN INCREASING MALADY
THE INCREASING FREQUENCY

fItLgUE-NII
of cases of kidney disease, of aggravated
and dangerous character, is matter for seri-
Gus concern among medical practitioners.
No kidney disease can be trivial, nor can il
safely be neglected, even for day When
the kidneys imperfectly discharge their
functions, and fail to eliminate the uric acid
from the blood, or set up the secretion of
calcareous matter, an hours delay in treat
ment is fraught with the gravest peril
Temporary palliative medicines only be-
guile the sufferer to false hopes, while the
diseased condition of the organs is steadily
growing more dangerous. The onlv medi-
cine that has shown itself eficacious in
thus curing thousands of the most severe
cases of kidney diseases is DR.. David Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy. It has even re-
stored perfect health to patients who had
been given up by the physicians. For sale

of Whitman and Spokane counties,
and the introduction of u bill In the
lower house OF the legislature for
this purpose Is arouslng general ad.
verse comment by the press and
people of both the old counties, and
outside of n few real estate spCcula-
tors, Office seekers and one or two
county seat aspiring towns, the feel
ing IL decidedly against any new
county creation ut this time, even
within the boundaries of the county
proposed, us well, The bill forming
the new county which Is TO I've
known rs "Slcptoe,N includes
twelve townships In the southern
part of Spokane county, and
twenty-one in the northern part
of Whitman county There are
many reasons why this matter
should bc deferred. Tho Increased
taxation which would he incurred
upon the residents, in the event of
the passage Of this bill, In tho three
counties, Is most important of thosc,
and Il alone sufficient TO destroy the
weight of any argument which
might be advanced in support of the
schemes. Neither Spokane nor
Whitman county has n population
more than sufficient to carry on II
county government ut u moderate
cost 10 the people. In these the
present rate Of taxation, while not
burdcnsomc, Is by 10 means small.
Cut up the two counties into three
and the rate Of taxation Is greatly
increased and especially in Whit
man, which would lose, by the pro-
posed bill, twcuty-one OF its fifiy-live
or sixty townships. Take away these
twcnty.onc townships, and will not
our taxes he necessarily increased?
They are high enough now.
Pass this bill, and the residents of
the new county do not escape the
/ increased burden Of taSation, which
would he even greater thnn in the
remaining portions of the old coun-
I ties. Foundingn new county ~ an
expensive luXury, in which but few
I Taxpayers care To indulge, and 1t
can be set down us an absolute fact
[ that those who are claInoring for
division expect 10 reap " return Of
their Increased taxation In an iudi-
Icrt way, and even more. And at
whose cost?
That the majority of the residents
of the proposed county ARE opposed
to the bin now before the lcgis.
laturc, Notwithstanding the petition
of alleged 1,SOO signatures said TO
lie backing the measure, Is not II
/ fact of imaginative reckoning, but l.
substantiatcd by the utterances of
prominent citizens residing within
the boundaries of the proposed
county who are seen In tullaX
daily. With two or three cNcCp.
tiOns, the scheme IL not supported
/ 10y the press, even, within the
county rs described by the hill, and
those which are cndcavoring to pro-
mote division are governed by sci.
fish motives only. The Spauglc
Record vigorously protests against
the measure. The Garfield Enter
prise is strongly opposed to the bill,
and the Tekon Globe Is not among
its champions.
This IL not the time for division.
When the two counties have at
tanned largely increased popula-
tion II will he time enough TO dis.
cuss the question Of new counties.

THE SILVER QUESTION.
Retire All Notss Below the Denomina-
t!on OF Twenty Dollars,
TEKOA, Wash, Feb. :.


To THE EpIToR % rHE REVIEW
offer the following on the silver
problem for what 1t is worth: To
my miud, the best and most sntls-
factory solution of the silver question
will be attained by the retirement of
all legal tender and bank notes be-
low the denomination of $50 and the
use of silver coin exclusively us II
subsidiary currency; provided, how
ever, that its present legal tender
quality he Nnimpalrcd,
The retirement OF all paper cur
rcncy ur Ter $50 would of necessity
require the issue of n corresponding
quantity of gold coins of the values
of s. and $40 pieces, which would
In u measure prevent the cXporiation
of gold that haunts tho monomct-
alllsts like some hidrous nightmare.
The history Of currency has ever
been that hard money dies before
the rag baby, and returns only upon
the retirement of the aforesaid baby
from the field.
The cry Of the Inconvenience OF
silver In this day Of money orders
and postal notca, Is all bosh. The
most serious Inconvenience of silver
u; the present time ut least being the
want OF It TO meet bills that are due
and 90 carry us over the hard times
that seems to be holding the noses
OF all clussea to the grludstonc. |
would suggest the free coinage OF
silver produced by American mine
owners, leaving foreign silverto he
classcd as bullion, only 10 be- pur-
chased when home production failed
to meet the demand. And that our
august members of congress remcm-
bcr that therc are tew people In
this republic outside of Wall street,
New York, whom they are supposed
10 represent, and that they quit
making huge spectacle of them
selves quarrcling over the rules and
20 to work or quit the job. ii.
