Remarkable Experience
of John Turk, a Pho
neer of Helena.
80 Doses Taken at Once Did
Not kin, but Succeeded
in Curing Him.

John Turk, Cascade, Montana, took 80
doses OF a so-calIed "San Fran DISCO Quack's
Medicine at once, and was not killed,
as promised by rival doctora. In Septem-
ber, 1883, he called on DR.. A. G.. Stoddart,
visiting physician for DR.. Iiebig d Co.,
and Butte City, who had offices for two
weeks at the Merchants Hotel. Helena.
Mr.. Turk had suffered for years with
k~heumatihn, Impurity of Blood and effects
Of mcrou1ial Salvation. He had four Of
tho best physicians in Montana attend him,
and they failed to relieve him. DR.. Stod.
dart examined him, sent his prescriptions
10 Ileblg Dispensary, San Francisco. to be
prepared. After DR.. %Stoddart left, Mr..
Turk met the local doctors and told them
what be had done. They laughed at him,
and said that San Francisco quaok would
kill him. Ho was SO frightened that when
the medicine from San Francisco came no

A SOUTH SEA MONARCH.
The Ruler of the Butaritari, In the South
Seas. Now In Frlacn. ~

The Ruler of the Hntaritari, In the South
Seas, Now In Frisco. n
Tonbramo. the king of Butaritari and
Mankin, two of the islands Of the Gilbert
group in ths South seas. is in the CITY, saws
the San Francisco Chronicle. His majesty
arrived on the trading schooner Tarawa
with two of his subjects, one of whom saws
he is an ex-pilot named jack, while the
other boasts of the euphonious name of
Autibia. All three are swarthy, coarse and
ugly looking. King Tonbramo cannot talk
any English; in fact when he was seen he
only grunted 9 series Of Rrunts, which
doubtless meant a great deal, but were en-
tirely unintelligible to everybody except
the royal grunter himself. The king meas
ures over six feet in height and weighs 26O
pounds. Ihe object Of his visit is to learn
the ways and zee the sights of the white
mems country. This is the first time he
has ever been away from his native country
n he expects to remain here several
weeks.
Autibia talks just enough English to
make himself understood. His ears like
his masters are ornamental with big holes
in the lobes, which, when he is at home,
says that he accompanies the king as an in
terprster and that the party will visit the
principal cities of the United States before
they return to their island home. SPEAK
ing OF ButarltRrl and Mankin, the dusky
interpreter explained that they were among
the most civilized of the Gilbert islanders.
They have churches there and a coed gov
eminent. headed by King Tonbramo, who
is very popular among his subjects. The
people live in frame houses, while the royal
palace Is an imposing two-story building.
which has a oanno in front to be used on
festive occasions for the purpose of firing
salutes.
Tho royal visitor ID said to be very intel
liRent and Of an observing turn Of mind.
He intends to teach his people on his re-
turn whatever good he may learn during
his visit. His majesty is rich and on his
present tour is we'll supplied with money.
His wealth has besn principally acquired
by the levyinR Of tribute on all the traders
who ever carried on business in his domain.
The current coin among the natives, who
are also taxed. is ooooanuts, md whenever
there are enough of these in the treasury to
make a shipload the thrifty sovereign CON
verts them into money.
When the Tarawn docked at Mission pier
the South Sea island potentate and his aids
had not decided where they would reside
while here, and, strange to relate, the man
ayers Of the leading hotels had not, up to
that time, made any efforts to secure tho
patronage OF the distinguished visitor for
their respective establishments.

est and most representative local

evening. A daily Of that city .hus

james II. Bible, the first speaker,
was credited on all sides with making
the best speech of the evening. 1t was
in his most felicltous vein. and will
long be remembered for it's brilliancy
of ideas, its logical conclusions, its
powerful rhetoric, its eloquent force
and its brilliant presentation OF the
hold which Mr.. Cleveland has on the
hearts OF the American people. The
speaker was frequently interrupted
with applause, but never was the vaat
sssemblage reused to higher pitch
OF enthusiasm than at the close Of
these sentences:

Patriotism and PartisanshIp.

The theory that man can not be
both partisan and patriot is q
favorlte one with a certain class OF
public teachers. They insist that the
spirit of devotion to political organ
szation is inconsistent with the senti-
ment of true and perfect loyalty, and
that the best way to serve the country
is to occupy an Independent attitude
in politics. We are told partisanship
tends to disparage the value of citizen
ship, and to degrade the methods aud
tendencies of our system of govern
ment. The intelligent voter is asked
to believe that it is wrong for him to
identify himself with an agency that
is designed to give practical effort to
certain doctrines and policies by car
rying elections and placing men in
power who are pledged to accomplish
desired results in Legislation and
otherwise. As q general thing, the
individuals who talk this way are no
ted for their bigotry and egCtism,
rather than for their candor and mod
esty. They offend the public sense
of Justice apd propriety oy exaggera
ting the evils of which they complain,
and by assuming things to be true
which are knogn to be false. In other
words, they are critics who shut their
eyes to facts that they should be will
ling to acknowledge, and refuse to
make allowance for conditions
fixed and fundamental. Their philoso-
ply lacks the necessary virtue of hon
,esty. They may be actuated by good
motives, but that does not justify their
loose and incorporate charges of pop

Little RhOdy.

Everybody who keeps his eyes
open knew to a moral certainty which
way the elections would go in Rhode
Island.
There was no earthly reason why
that State should not keep up its pres
tige and furnish republican plural
ity for local officials. Under similar
circumstances it has always been re-
publican, and there was no reason to
expect that it would lnaugurate any
change this year.
The democratic ticket was not
equal to that of its opponents in per.
sonnet. Rhode Island did perfectly
right in choosing the best men with.
out respect to party for the admins
tration of her internal affairs.
There is good gro und for hope, though
that In the approaching campaign
she will cast her vote in favor OF nat.
ional economy and against the reck-
less expenditure Yhlch seems to be
the republican policy in these days.
If the democrats put up the right
man on the right platform, Rhode Is.
land is more than likely to wheel in
to line.-New York Herald.
