+ The Republican party thinks 1t viii
want more votes in the Senate in a near
future, and so 1t proposes to manufact-
ure new State out OF the wilds of
Idaho. The Territory Is said to contain
100000 people, but q small proportion of
whom are actual residents. About 25, 900
of them are cowboys whose "headquar-
ters are in the saddle" They own
neither land nor stock, and have no
settled homes. There a man can claim
rs his residence the place where he has
his washing done. But the mountain
cowboy, whose dress consists of pair
of leather brooches, susponders and
shoes, does not have any washing done.
There are about as many miners as cow
boys. These are chiefly Chinese and
Indians, and are not allowed to vote,
though they are engaged in a regular
industry and have homes. The number
of gamblers, saloonkeepers, professional
politicians, land sharks and other dis
reputables amount to about g, 600 more.
But it is said that there are about u.s.
900 Industrious farmers, gardeners, fruit
raisers and bee-keepers in the Territory,
who own their places and have we'll
ordered homes. This is true, but they
have all been disfranchised. They be-
long to the sect known as the Latter
Day Saints, few of whom several years
ago, and in mother Territory, practiced
polygamy. No one pretends that these
Idaho Mormons practice polygamy, but
it was stated and generally believed
that they could not be relied upon to
vote for the grand old party. 1t was &C
cordingly considered best to disfran-
chise them in advance of making a
State out of the Territory of Idaho. If
these Mormon farmers are not citizens
the Territory does not contain enough
bona fde residents to entitle it to Rep
resentative in State Legislature.
To admit it to the Union on equal terms
with New York, Ohio, Illinois and
Georgia would be the browning outrage
of the Republican party.-Chicago Her

Thinkers Will Heed This.

Not one physician in a thousand has over
succeeded in relieving a person suffering
from weak and wasting or consumptive
kidneys, yet they continue to experiment,
and after the death of their patient ask
for their fee. The kidney is a delicate
organ, and yet good health in large meas
ure depends upon its proper action. Let
the kidneys become sore or inactive, and
uric acid Is eliminated from the effete mat
ter that passes too slowly out of the sys-
tenn. From this cause arises many myste-
rious pains in the back, side, shoulder, joints
and limbs. A feeling of ennui comes over
the victim. The world seems dark and
gloomy. The nerves become shattered; sui
eide is contemplated, and ones condition is
most pitiable. DIR. Bulls Sarsaparilla con-
tains such herbal juices as weak kidneys de-
mand 1t has relieved and cured many cases

USE OF KEROSENE.
The Many Ways in which HOusekeeps
Can utilize II.


Can utilize IL.
Marks on tables caused by hot dishes
may be removed by kerosene rubbed in
we'll with a soft cloth, finishing with a
little cologne water, rubbed dry with an
other cloth.
When giving the final polish TO stoves,
before putting away for the summer,
mix the backing with a little kerosene
instead of water, to prevent rust.
Tarnished paint may be cleaned by
rubbing with cloth wet with kerosene.
Black walnut or any wood finished in
oil may be kept bright by polishing with
kerosene.
Pour a teaspoonful of kerosene into
each quart of boiled starch, for a gloss;
this will also prevent irons sticking tc
thin goods.
Kerosene will brighten silver.
Rub lamp chimneys with newspaper
on which has been poured little kero-
sene. This will make them much clear
or than if soap is used; they will also be
less liable to crack.
To remove rnst from steel, rub with
kerosene, and soak for day, polishing
with emery dust and kerosene.
Rub rusty flat-irons with kerosene.
Kerosene will soften boots and shoes
hardened by water, and render them as
pliable as new.
Brighten zinc with kerosene.
A tablespoonful of kerosene in boil
er of clothes will greatly facilitate the
rubbing.
Iron and polished steel, when not in
use, may be kept from rusting by wiping
with cloth on which little kerosene
has been poured.
Oil-cloth may be frightened by rub
bling with kerosene.
All soiled spots found around door
knobs on light-painted doors, may be
removed by kerosene on flannel cloth,
with no injury to the paint.
Kerosene poured on red-fannel and
bound on the throat, will greatly ease a
sore throat. 1t will also heal cuts and
cure chilblains.- Joyce, in Good
