What is ScrofuIa

II Is that impurity In the blood, which, accumu-
lating in the glands Of the neck, produces UNI
slightly Jumps or swellings; which causes painful
running sores on the arms, legs, or feet; which
developes ulcers In the eyes, cars, or nose often
causing blindness or DEAFNESS which is the origin
Of pimples. cancerous growths, or many other
manifestations usually ascribed TO humors."
II Is more formidable enemy than consumption
or cancer alone, for scrofuia combines the worst
possible features Of both. Being the most ancient,
10 the most general Of all diseases or affections
for very few persona are entirely free from It.
How can it be cured? BY taking Hoods Sarsa-
parilla, which, by the cures II has accomplished,
often when other medicines have failed, has
proven itself 10 be potent and peculiar medicine
for this disease. For all affections OF the blood
Hoods Sarsaparilla is nnequailed, and some OF the
cures II has effected are really wonderful. If you
suffer from scrofula in any OF its various forms,
be sure to give Hoods sarsaparilla trial.

Self.Convicted.

Local Superintendent Murray,
when the census had been COM
pleted, made public the number OF
inhabitants of the city of New York.
The Bureau at Washington subse-
quently reduced his figures nearly
100000. A recount was demanded
and refused. The legislature of
New York ordered an investigation,
and it's committee called Superin-
tendent Murray before it as wit
ness. Census Superintendent Robt.
P. Porter thereupon commanded
his .subaltern to disobey the sum-
mons of the legislative committee,
assuring him of the support of the
Federal officers in such refusal.
Why? Evidently because Mr.. Por-
ter knows his official acts will not
bear investigation. What is such a
census worth to the country, to his
tory or to science? Simply nothing.

ONEJ s Moore. described as a

ONE J. S. Moore, described as a
Parsee merchant, has made state
ment before the coinage committee
to the effect that it was not the de-
monetization of silver by the United
States which caused the decline in
value of that metal, but smaller
demand for silver in India and a
larger supply of silver due to i'm
ports and improvements in trans
portation facilities among the In
dian provinces. In view of the facts
in the case one is strongly tempted
to believe Mr.. Moore has been en-
ployed to make his absurd and
wholly unfounded statement. The
demand for silver has been for years,
and is now, steadily increasing.
Moreover, any business man knows
without being told that improved
transportation facilities tend to in
crease production, and by that
tendency increase the uses of and
demand for money, and silver being
a money metal in India, would for
that very reason grow in demand
as transportation facilities were bet
tered and production increased ;
and this is just what has happened
in India. The demand for silver
has kept pace with the increased
productions and market facilities
70 the country.

he is FALL things to all men," and

to endorse any platform offered for

THE 60 days of life allotted to the
legislature has expired. That but
little has been accomplished in
the way oflegisIation, lis undeniable,
and much fault will be found with
them because of the limited amount
OF work accomplished. But in our
opinion the fault is in the absurd
constitutional limitation put upon
the session, and not in any dilatl i.
riness or laches on the part of the
members themselves. There was a
great deal of work to lie done, which
our constitution bunglers should
have forseen and provided for; and
then nearly the entire legislature is
made up of inexperienced men. To
expect such a body to organize and
get into good working condition,
and then enact o voluminous code
of laws for new State, in the short
space of 60 days, is to expect i'm
possibilities. They could not do it,
no matter how industrious or how
devoted they might be.

THE silver coinage bill was killed

THE silver coinage bill was killed
in committee in accordance, as it
is charged, with plan devised BY
Speaker Reed, Mr.. Walker of Mass
achusett, and President Harrison.
Under the law, bills coming to the
President for his signature ten days
or more before the adjournment of
Congress must be signed or vetoed !;
but if the time is less than ten days
no veto is required. The bill fails
to become law unless signed by the
President. The silver bill was with
held until noon of the tenth day
before the expiration of the session
of Congress, and the President thus
relieved of the duty of vetoing it.
An effectual method Of defeating
legislating, but whether it will
prove satisfactory to the general
public is another question. The free
coinage of silver is a right which
the government has no legitimate
excuse or authority for. Withholding
from the people, and when another
election takes place, the man or
party who has aided in the defeat
of so just and reasonable demand
should be buried under a mountain
of votes that would effectually pre-
vent their resurrection.

The report of the legislative com.
mittee on investigation of the Idaho
State Insane Asylum at Blackfoot,
shows that for the past four years
the total expenditures were $1O2,-
325.82. Of this, $4,000 was paid
for land and buildings, and $40, 900
in material and supplies is now on
hand, leaving the total net current
expenses to be $72,57643. The
daily average of patients under
treatment for the time was So s., and
the net cost per day ninety-three
cents per patient. From all infor-
nation gained it appears that the
patients have been we'll cared for
and have been kindly and carefully
treated. There ure at present sew
enty-one patients in the institution,
twenty-four females and forty-seven
males. The committee earnestly
recommends that an appropriation
of not less than $4,000 be made
for the construction of additional
buildings and furnishing and COM
pleting the new building construct
Ell since the late fire, and, further,
that an appropriation of an amount
to equal ninety cents per capita be
made for the maintenance Of the
parties. The expenses per capita
will decrease as the number of in
mates Observation-Disclosures.
