troubled with Dyspepsia or Liver
Complaint in some form or other,

depressing influence on the mind or
body, preventing them from thinking

food after eating, dyspepsia, sick head
ache, acidity of the stomach or any
arrangement of the stomach or liver
upon which the whole action of our
system depends) are speedily and ef-
fectually overcome by the use of

stubborn cases have yielded to its in
fuence, as thousands of letters receiv-
ed will testify. The immense sale of

will it pay you to suffer from any of
the above diseases when you can have
immediate relief in the august F7olc-
CT. Three doses viii prove its worth.
It IS sold by ell druggists and general

In Regard ts supt. Lee.

To the Editor of the Capital Journal:
In the remarks made by the States
man this morning about the Salem
Indian school, is a statement that
reflects on the business ability of
Ex-Supt. Lee. / have no desire to
make auy defense of my father, as he
does not need 1t. He is now in
New Yerk City, president Of and at
the head of q corporation having
several million dollars cash capital,
and receiving salary of more than
three times as large as he received
as superintendent of the Salem In
dian school, but az all his bondsmen
live at Salem they should know
that he has made complete
settlement with the govern
ment and not only honestly
accounted for every dollar coming
into his hands as ex-Supt., but has
been allowed S113.34, AS money still
due him. Since I came TO Salem
last Aug st his accounts have been
suspended and re-exnmined by the
chief clerk, at the department in
Washington, as far back as Oct. lst +,
1885, and nothing wrong found In
them except clerical blunders for
which ex-Supt. Lee was In no
way responsible, and the
commissioners Of Indian af-
fairs has written aud placed on
record at the department.: an
justice to Mr.. Lee, 1t is but due him
to say that this is the model Indian
school and under his management
1t reached the highest state of
efficiency" No furthur defence is
necessary. Il. II. LEE.

WHAT ARE QUALIFICATIONS TO
ENTITLE ONE TO VOTE AT THE
REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES.

This Is a matter receiving a great
deal Of discussion on the streets.
There Is no law in this state gov
erning this subject. Common
sense, based on the customs prevail
ing in the republican party in the
past, must govern the judges in
determining who may vote.
The first class that are plainly en-
titled to the right of voting at these
primaries, are resident voters who
are well known to be republicans.
About these there will be no con-
troversery. The next class
might be called new voters, who
have either never before cast bal
lot, or who have come to the city
since the last general election. A
declaration on the part Of such that
they are republicans and intend to
support the republican ticket ought
to be deemed sufficient. Any voter
who cast vote for Harrison and
Morton and can vote at the coming
June election has the right to vote
tomorrow.
The judges cannot afford to con-
duct the primaries loosely or care
lessly, as too much depends upon
these primaries in their influence on
the June elections to be treated
lightly. Where there is reasonable
doubt as 10 Il voter's right 1t should
be deliberately investigated before a
decision is reached. Let all be done
fairly.

Ing Material.

Mr.. Edwin Burton, recently from
Marseilies, ILL.,, who has bought a
half interest with his brother A. A
Burton. who has just taken pos
session Of the Collins brick-yards,
has got the contract of superintend-
ing the state prison brick-yards.
There has not been half enough
brick material on hand to keep up
with the supply. 1t Is well known
what a hindrance a lack Of building
material has been TO the growth Of
the city as an instance of these
delays caused by lack OF brick.
Mr.. Stanton, a contractor, wanted
5000 brick yesterday, aud could
not get them before the first of May.
This delays improvements and dh-
courages contractors.
This new firm proposes TO keep up
a big supply Of brick all the year
around and have any quantity on
hand just as any merchant would
carry full stock, 50 that farmers,
nr builders need not wait q day for
want OF brick.
This new firm consists of four
practical brickmakers and they
will employ all their energies to
keep up full stock at all times and
never he out of u full stock Of press
ed and common brick. They will
nave u working capacity of from
two to five millions yeau.
