NOT DEAD.
REMARKABLE EXPERIENCE OF
JOHN TURK, A PIONEER
OF HELENA.
80 DOSES TAKEN AT ONCE DID
NOT KILL, BUT SUCCEEDED
IN CURING HIM.

John Turk, Cascade, Montana, took 80
doses OF a so-oalled ''San Francisco Qaaek's
Medicine" at once, and was not killed, as
promised by rival doctors. In September,
1889, he called ON Dr.. A. G. Stoddart. visit
ing physician for DR.. Liehig & Co., LiebiR

Butte City, b had Offices for two weeks at
the Merchants Hotel, Helena. Mr.. Turk
had suffered for years with kheumatisn.
~Impurity of Blood and effects of Merourial
Salvation. He had four of the best ply
sicians in Montana attend him, n they
failed to relieve him. DR.. Stoddart exam-
ined him. sent his prescriptions to LiebiQ
Dispsnsary. san Francisco, to be prepared.
After DR.. Stoddart loft, Mr.. Turk met the
local doctors and told them what he had
done. They laughed At him, aud said that
San Francisco quack would kill him." He
WAS 50 frightened that when the medicine
from San Francisco came he put the bottle
upon a shelf at his house, 7O7 Park street.
Helena, and it stood neglected until Decem-
suffered day and night, had not slept half
an hour at a time in years. Being in great
agony late in December, At midnight, his
eye caught sight of the so-callsd "Quaek's2"

himself with the "Quaok's" medicine. a. he
was told by former attending doctors it
would kill him, SO he swallowed half =
months medicine at once-D doses-and

ANOTHER BAD BREAK.
Farmer" Calls n Halt on the
Journal for Leaving Him Out
i'm the Cold.

1t is fact that cannot be denied
that the workingmen of America
are to-day receiving greater wages
IN money by more than fifty per
cent. than they received before Re-
publican protection began in 1861.
1t IS equally undeniable that every
dollar they receive IN wages will to-
day buy moro than 81. 80 would
have bought in 1861. These two
facts ought to he enough to detcrm-
inc every reasonable workingman
to vote for Harrison and for the
continuation Of the great industrial
policy which has brought about
such results.
EDITOR ARGUS - The above is
from the journal. Now, will You
let q farmer talk q little? Farmers
are not much at writing, but they
can think. and they sometimes do a
little figuring. 1t is certainly fact
that the workingmen Of America
spend most Of what they spend at
all for the necessaries of life, and
the necessaries of life are produced
principally by farmers. Now, if
the workingman gets fifty per cent
moro wages than he did and can
buy the products of the farmer Tor
fifty per cent. less, where docs this
great protection with big p come
IN for the farmer?
Again, The farmer very often has
to hire labor. Suppose, for illus
trati.n, wages formerly were 81 per
day and corn fifty cents per bushel,
two bushels would pay a days work.
Now, according to the Journal, his
wages would be $3.50, and he can
buy as much for 81 as he could then
for S1.50,-three bushels Of corn
for 81. Therefore | would have to
sell four and one. half bushels to
pay him for what formerly only
took two bushels. Now if, as the
journal says, this ''is fact that
cannot be denied" the sooner |
sell my farm and join the working
men the better off / will be. But
N, on the other hand, it is as | sus.
pect only scheme to get the work
ingmens' vote (for they tell very
different story to the farmer Mt the
expense of the workingman). /
think it better for the farmer to 90
with the party who is honest with
all. and that certainly is not Har.

ANOTHER MooNsHINER.

On the 18th inst, Deputy y. s.
Marshal, VIM. H. Lemon, arrested
one Samuel Heishman, living about
six miles above Wardensville, Hardy
county, for illicit distilling. On the
18th, Marshal Lemon landed his pris-
oner in Parkersburg, where he was
given a hearing before U. S. Conn
missioner, L. N. Tavenner, who sent
the prisoner to jail for the action OF
the U. S. Court, now in session in that
city. Marshal Lemon made the arrest
assisted by Frank Harrison, of Rom
ney, and succeeded in breaking up
several other stills. After making the
arrest, the Marshal drove all night a
distance of about fifty miles, Marshal
Lemon has recently made several ar
rests that deserve a great deal of
credit, and if other officers of Uncle
Sam would follow his example, West
Virginia would soon be rid of such
transgressors.
The section of country in which this
arrest was made, is very wild and the
people dangerous. as other officers
have been given considerable trouble.
1t is reported that number of stills
yet exist there, and the officers unable
to locate them. We would suggest
that Deputy U. S. Collector Thos.
Pownall, of Romney, make some effort
alsoNto break up the stills in that sec
ton, as we believe that to bea portion
