Rally at Deerfeld.

The Republicans of Deerfield gathered in
sufficient numbers last Saturday evening
to fill he residence of David White to over
flowing. Speeches were made by +. T..
Smith, Il. T.. Chandler and Edward Bras
sey. These gentlemen presented the issues
of the day in IA fair and able manner, and
were accorded generous applause. MIR.
Brassey, though a novice at experimenting,
surprised his hearers by the logical and
convincing manner in which he handled the
tariff and other questions. He exposed
the fallacy OF the calamity howlers who
have just finished "A campaign in the inter-
est of Great Britain ia this county. He
showed to the satisfaction of every intelli-
gent man present that the poll parrot cry
that 1.-THE tariff is IA tax" was ii lie dwelt
upon to deceive the ignorant.
Mr.. Chandler o o up the wool question
and showed himself conversant with that
question. He made it clear to all present
that woolgrowers Of the United States had
been benefited by the Mckinley bill, while
at the same time the masses were getting
their wooleu goods as cheap, if not cheaper,
than before it's passage.
Those who attended the meeting from
Lewistown wish to extend their thanks to
Mr.. and Mrs. David White for the kind and
hospitable manner in which they were en-
tertained while there.

W.. c. Draper returned Tuesday from an
extended visit to his old home in Micbi-
an. He says the Republican outlook is
bright in all the western states.
Under the laws Of the State Mr.. Wright,
county treasurer. cannot again sucseed
himself. He has proven a most capable
and popular officer. See that he is elected
to his last term by the largest majority
ever given him..
The vicious attacks that have been made
on Mr.. Burg by the "Mud Geyser" on ac-
count of his nationality, are an insult to
every man of foreign birth in this county.
Place, nor CLINE do not make men. The
''bunco steerer" is a pat example showing
to what depths of infamy and d~epravity
a native American may fall.
AGreat Falls man by the name OF Dono-
van, talked in behalf Of that place for the
capital Tuesday night. He clearly showed
that jealousy OF Helena was all the argu-
ment the Falls could produce. and in her
desperation would prefer to vote for Aua-
conda for the capital.
George A. Parrott desires us to announce
that he is a Republican candidate for the
Office Of constable Of Big Spring creek town
ship. w. T. Mcfarland has also con-
scented to run for the office OF justice of the
peace. These gentlemen can be voted for
in the blank space left for that purpose on
the official ballot
Republicans nave generally failed to
nominate township officers throughout the
county, as have the Democrats with the
exception of one or two instances. Blanks
have been left on the tickets i'm order that
justices and cunstables can he voted for
on November Sth. II not elected then
these officers will have to be appointed by
the board OF commissioners.

Mr.. EpIroR: noticed in the last issue
of the ARGUS an article that did me great
injustice. The author of the article claims
that l have said that the office of county
superintendent Of schools is n~on-political:
which is true. 1t also claims that I am in
favor Of protection; that assertion is also
true. But when he says that | am sailing
under false colors, he maliciously lies. For
no man has been more consistent than l..
The author also claims that | have been
over the county making partisan speeches.
| wish to state here that at no time or
place have i mentioned the name of any
candidate. or said anything that is in the
least partisan. l have simply discussed
public schools and the duties connected
with the office of county superintendent,
as all who have heard me know to be true
The author of the article has willfully and
maliciously tried to iniure me. J wish to state
here that il the gentleman who wrote the
article will come to me like n man. / prom
Use him that we can settle the matter in
very short order. There is nothing so low
and contemplate in my judgment as to
try to Willy any one through the columns
of a newspaper. l wish To say to the citi
zens Of this county that the facts are Just
as ! give them.

TRIBUTE.

While it is over thirty years ago since ALL
COCKS Porous PLAsTERs were first intro
duced to the medical profession and public the
marked success and unprecedented popularity
which they met with not only continues, but
steadily increases. No other plasters have
been produced which gain 50 many testimoni-
ais of high value as those continuously accorded
to ALLCocK's POROUS PLAsTERs. and the
only motive for these exceptional tributes hes
in the fact of their being medicinal and phar
maceutical preparation of superior value. Ad-
dtional proof of the value of ALLCoCK's 70
RoUs PLAsTERs lies in the fact that they are
being largely initiated by Inscriptions persons,
who seek to deceive the public by offering plas-
tiers which they claim to be the same"
equal "as good" BETTER 'best porous plas-
ter" etc., while it is in general appearance
only that they resemble ALLCocK's. Every
one of the so-called porous plasters are imita-
tations of ALLcooK's Porous PLAsRERs.
Avoid dealers who attempt to palm off inferi-
or and worthless plasters that are purchased
by them at low rates for the purpose of substi-
tuition,

He VIII Aim to Find Route Across the
Apex of the Arctic Ocean.
DIR. Nansen, the Norwegian explorer,
who is about to undertake a voyage for
the discovery ola northwest passage,
has adopted plans essentially different
from those followed by his intrepid
predecessors. Hitherto, with one pos
sible exception, all attempts to reach
the North pole have been made in de-
fiance of the obstacles of nature. DR..
Nansen, on the other hand, writes G.,
w. Weippiert in the Chicago Graphic,
proposes to learn whether nature has
not herself supplied means Of solving
the problem, and whether there is not,
after all, possibility of reaching the
north pole by utilizing certain natural
facilities in the frozen seas of which all
early Arctic navigators were ignorant.
The circumstances upon which DR..
Nansen bases his hopes are summar-
lied by him as follows: The Jean
nette'' expedition of 1s79-s1, and the
loss of that vessel, seemed to sound the
knell of all expeditions to reach the
pole by Behring straits. But in June,
1884, three years after the "Jeannette"
sank, there were found near Julian

with except my knife, but In couple
of days | knocked together fair she4-
ter used rocks and limbs and brush
and mud, but it was comfortable place
when finished. Then constructed hut
for myself about twenty rods away. and
our Crusoe life had fairly began. The
provisions we had brought in the boat
lasted us about week. Then we had
to resort to the birds on the island and
to fish, oysters and shrimps.
A box of lines and hooks had been
slowed in the boat, and if had only had
a gun and ammunition should have
been entirely satisfied. AS soon as had
finished the huts we used to make daily
iaunts over the island. We thus dlscov-
cred before the rainy season came ON
species of wild potato, two or three sorts
of edible roots, and, like Robinson Cru
soc, / had gathered great quantity OF
grapes. After the rainy season set In she
could not 60 out much, but | continued
to fish and to gather food from the rocks.
The cooking was done at her fireplace ON
fat stones, and we always sat down to
gether to eat.
Both of us kept well and had good ap-
petites, and though the food was poor it
was always relished. Never but once in
the five months we we're on the island
did the little woman utter complaint
That was when her shoes gave ont. and

could not replace. made her accept
my No. sea boots after cutting of the
legs to make sandals for myself, and she
got along fairly we'll, though so awk-
wardly as to excite our merriment.
It was five months and fourteen days
from our leaving the bark when a brig
chartered by the consul found us on the
island. He had at first given her up for
lost, and it was months before he de-
cided to begin a search. He was on
board himself, and we had been wander
ing through the woods in search of
potatoes and got back to the huts to
find Roquiere and three or four men
there. What did you think the idiot
did? He first gave her a "blowing up"
for jumping overheard from the bark.
Then he pitched into her for being sun
tanned and unkempt. Then he rounded
on me and said ought to be left on che
island, and had to turn to and give
him good knocking about before his
tongue could utter civil word.
The brig sailed straight for Singapore,
and the wretched crank never spoke to
me on the voyage. He even had me ar
rested for assault after our arrival. |
knew her feelings, however, angel that
she was, and two years later, when !
heard of his death by apoplexy, felt
like swinging my hat and sending her a
letter of congratulation. 1t was from
her hand when l left Singapore that l
received letter of kindest thanks and
best wishes, and the letter contained a
check for $500.
