DoDD's caTARRH CURE.


In order to cure eatarrh it is necessary to al
lay the inflammation of the irritated menu
branes with soothing application, cleanse the
head of the plugging mucous secretions, and
heal the discharging ulcers. For colds in the
head and nasal catarrh Dodd's local treatment
does this without the aid of snuff, douches or
fumes. If the disease has extended down
ward, affecting the bronchial tubes or lungs,
digestion and blood, the internal treatment
both removes from the system the scattered
poison and by its building-up properties as
sists nature in restoring the impaired parts.

An Undisputed Test Of Merit.

A medicine that has been house
hold remedy for over fifty years and
used in that time by more than $780,,
100000 persons must have grea,
merit. Such medicine is found in
BRANDRETH's Pills. This fact illus
trates the value of these pills better
than any statement of the proprietors.
1t will be observed that the dose re-
CURED to cure is small. One or. two
pills taken every night for ten OF
twenty days will cure dyspepsia, cos.
tiveness, rheumatism, liver complaint,
all female complaints and weaknesses.
BRANDRE'n's PILLS are purely
vegetable, absolutely harmless, and
safe to take at any time.
Sold in every drug and medicine
store, either plain or sugar coated.

being the following:
The car of Russia, &7,6O3,OOO.

The king OF Prussia, "a, 100000.

1t is to be taken into account that
these large sums paid to monarchs are
intended to cover proportionately large
expenses peculiar to royalty. and
that notun frequently the rulers find
it pretty hard to make both ends
meet.

RECORDER GEORGE.

He REFUSES to Supply Omcial Inform.
atien, IS Required by Law.
The commissioners of Alta county
sent written request to Recorder
George, of defunct Logan county, for
a certified copy OF the poll list Of the
precincts formerly . part Of Logan
county which are now attached to
Alta. The letter stated that the fees
prescribed by law would be paid.
1t was handed to Wes. George BY
P. NJ. Brunsr, and the official CURLY
replied:
~ won, do i'll"
This refusal renders the recalc;trant
official liable to both q fine and an
imprisonment. That is, il Logan
county still has legal existence. But
IT Logan county Is defunct, then Mr..
George has no right to the custody
OF the records, neither can he legally
perform a single act as Recorder.
fills action will be considered later.
At present the commissioners will
have to make up the jury list for the
year; and as they cannot get the poll
list of the new precincts, they will
have to select the jury from the old
precincts Of the defunct Alturss
county.
This may not prove very acceptable
to the precincts that will not be repre-.
sented on the jury list. But the com.
missioners cannot help that. Besides,
by selecting the jury from precincts
close to the courthouse, several hun.
dred dollars will be saved in mileage
and other fees.

An anecdote is going the rounds in
Australia concerning the manner in
which well.known leading actor
supplied the accidental absence OF a
necessary item of "makeup." He
vas playing Macbeth, aud when he
came to the murder scene he asked in
vain for the blood with which he had
intended to imtrue his hands. After
abusing the property man roundly for
his neglect, the actor, struck with a
happy thought, suddenly hit the
func,ionary on the nose, so tina, a
good supply Of crimson fluid was
obtained, and in this the actor bathed
his palms.

How Potato Crops Can Be Doubled.

Experiments in growing potatoes
last year demonstrate that farmers
ca" double their crops by the use Of
proper fertilizers and sufficiency OF
plant food. Good cultivation is also
necessary, but with the extra expense
attending the growth of potatoes in
the experiments made. it is shown
that the large extra Weld not only
we'll repa,s for the additional expense
but greatly adds to the profit and
leaves the soil in better condition
than before.

THAT "APPEAL."
1t Is Not the Right Way In Which the
Warrants Should be Attacked.

warrants should be Attacked.
To the Editor Of the T1xEs.l
observe in your paper Of yester>
day q statement that Alta and Lin>
coin counties are contesting the
validity OF certain county warrants
issued by the officials of Logan county
in the month of February, payable to
5. 3. Kingsbury, Arthur Brown, II.
=. Miller, etc, amounting in the
aggregate to something over 10000.
This is a step in the right direction,
If the step is directed right. But
when l further read in the article that
the step taken is an appeal from the
action of the Board of Commissioners
OF Logan county, | fear the proceed
ings will not reach the desired end
for the following reasons:
1st. Who will certify the appeal
up to the District Court? Will it be
w. B. George, the clerk Of the Board
OF Logan county? apprehend not,
for he evidently will refuse to do so,
and he not being now an officer
clothed with any official power, as we
see the case, then there is no court
which by its order can compel Mr..
George to do SO.
I'd. Were he to certify the case up
to tho District Court, to WHAT court
must no SO certify it? Mr.. George, If
he has any power to certify the ap.
peal up, certainly can only certify it
up TO the District Court of Logan
county, and | apprehend it will be
many years ere we have q term of
the District Court for Logan county.
You may answer the last PROPOSE.
ton by saying that the bills creating
Alta and Lincoln counties provide
that all cases on the docket of the AL.
turas County District Court shall be
transferred to the docket of Alta
county, and all cases on the docket of
Logan County District Court shall be
transferred and placed upon the
docket of Lincoln county.
| have not seen the act which
makes those changes in the names
and lines of these counties; but it is
reasonable to suppose that the pro.
visions last above referred to are In
the bill.
But what effect will those provi-
s'ons have upon the case in question:?
A cause cannot be transferred from
The docket of Logan county when it
8 not on the docket, nor is there now
any power to place that appeal upon
he docket for the reasons heretofore
'eferred to.
Why not strike direct at the very
'itals of this question through the
extraordinary remedy provided by law?
am in favor of such proceeding
IS will prevent the payment OF those
warrants, for in the end the people
ave all these expenses to pay.
But while Alta and Lincoln counties
re seeking to prevent the payment
t these dubious" warrants, as the

o find out that our Commissioners
ave issued equally as unreasons able

nd probably in Lincoln county, for
imaginary valuable attorneys? The

A Suggestion IF weight be the force
of gravity" it is requirement of COM
mon prudence, that any, who are en-
gagged in lifting heavy bodies, like water
wheels, etc., provide in the first place, or
much as possible, against accident, on
account of some defect or weakness in
the machinery: since, as between the
forces of gravity and cohesion, the lat
ter very often proves the weaker of the
two.
A suitable flag has been purchased by
the school in our village and arrange
ments made to float it from the top of
the school house on Decoration day.
But some of our local sages are not
agreed how to fix the pole for that pur-
pose, and there is danger of unpleasant
delay on account of bOotless dispute
among "the wise in their own conceit,"
whether the pole be perpendicular or
horizontal. Now it is respectfully sug-
gested, not however without due regard
for their official dignity, that platform
be erected for the committee to stand
upon and that they take turns to hold
the flag as a substitute for pole. No
paint is necessary, as these gentlemen
land we speak it to their credit are
enough seasoned to stand the weather.
The reasoning of some of these philosO-
pliers, in regard to the best method of
''raising the pole" reminds us of Ger,
tain tanners sign which was the tail end
of a calf skin hanging down from a knot
hole. One morning the tanner was sur
prised to notice a seemingly well dressed
gentleman standing meditatlvely, for a
long time in front of his door as if gaz-
ing at something. At last he asked him
if he was in want of anything and what
it was? His visitor replied by explain
ing that he was "a scientific searcher af-
ter truth and never passed by any phe-
nomenon without ascertaining, if posi-
BILE, its cause; but, that for two hours he
had studied intently this mystery, with
out yet reaching solution, how the calf,
whose tail that was, ever got through
that knot hole"
