A STRANGE CASE.
How an Enemy was Rolled.

The following graphic statement will be read with intense interest: ssI cannot describe the numb creepy sensation that existed in my arms, hands and legs. l had to rub and beat those parts until they were sore, to overcome in measure the dead feeling that had taken possession of them. In, addition, I had a strange weakness in my back and around my waist, together with an indescribable gone feeling in my stomach. Physicians said it was creeping paralysis, from which, accord ing to their universal conclusion, there is no rehef. Once it fastenS upon person, they say, it continues it's insidious progress until it reaches vital point and the sufferer dies. Such was my prospect. had been dOctoring year and half steadily, but with no par ticular benefit. when saw an advertisement of Dr Miles Restorative Nervine, procured 8 bottle and began using it. Marvellous as it may seem, but few days had passed before every bit of that creepy feeling had left me, and there has not been even the slightest indication of its return. 1 now feel as well as I ever did. and have gained ten pounds in weight though had run down from TO to 137. Four others have used Dr. Miles Restorative Nervine on my recomen- dation, and it has been as satisfactory in their cases as in mine."-James Kane, La Rue, o.

its close it should not cease. The way to
the end is to make a distinctive exhibi-
ton in a structure of our own. erected for
the purpose, and that will in object les
sons teach all observers of the capabilities
of the whole region concerning which
there is now so much misapprehension.
The fact is that such an exhibit will
really constitute an exposition of all
there is of worth and wealth in the State,
in climate, products. soil, education, art,
manufactures, agriculture, horticulture,
minerals and mining, commerce, trade,
capacity, natural advantages, social con-
ditions, and the like.
In short, a proper Northern and Cen
tral California exhibition will be State
exposition, and distinctively made it will
once for all remove the false impression
that obtains concerning the upper two
thirds of the State. Finally such an ex-
position, while at once the most compre-
nensive, impressive and educating, will
be the most economic for each of the
counties. 1t viii stand out in bold contrast
to the separate exhibition by Southern
California. and will thereby tend to teach
the world the truth concerning the State
as whole, and to remove the unfortu-
nate impression so widely made that all
that iS hast in tha Ststa il in SOnthern

THE REPEAL BILL.

The passage of the bill repeating the
purchase clause of the silver Act ends a
long and aggravating debate in the
United States Senate and a struggle more
disturbing than any ever entered upon
over financial question in the history
of the country, and certainly one that has
caused more unrest than any measure
before the National Legislature since the
era of resumption.
The country is to be congratulated on
the outcome. 1t is not likely that the re-
peal measure will be stayed in the
House. 1t will be urged by the
radical silver men that the repeal was
due to the pressure of the Executive
upon the Senate. But this is pleading
the baby act; the Executive, so far as the
debate has disclosed, no more than
expressed frankly and courageously
what measure the President would ap-
prove and what he would refuse to sign.
That was his right; nay, it was his duty
to declare. All the circumstances sur
rounding the situation made it necessary
for him to reply to inquiries made as to
what bill would have the Executive ap-
proval.
1t was well that Congress should know,
that the people should understand the
position of the third and independent
arm of the law-making power. 1t is by
no means uncommon for Executives to
indicate their friendship or their animos-
ity toward legislative propositions. Pres
ident Cleveland called Congress together
for an express purpose, namely to act
upon the silver question. In the message
he clearly stated his views and gave it to
be understood that repeal was his policy.
That any executive influence was ex-
erted to maintain this policy not war
ranted by the high trust of the Presi-
Dental Office the country will not be-
lieve The President will sign the bill
now passed, and in doing so we believe
he will best serve the interests of the
whole country. 1t is not now wise to
discuss the issue, since it will be very
speedily determined whether the friends
of the repeal measure have acted wisely
or otherwise. The position of the
RECORD UNION has been constantly
against the craze for silver legislation
calculated to exalt that metal as money
unduly and to force upon the country a
fictitious purchasing value in legal tender.

A CARD TO THE PUBLIC.

While having repeatedly announced
through the daily papers our honest as well
as earnest determination to retire from busi-
ness it is with justice to the public and to
ourselves that we come before you with this
card en1bodying plain statement Of facts.
On the 18th and 18th Of last month we
closed our store for the sole purpose Of re-
marking our entire stock Of MEMS, BOYS
AND CHILDREN'S CLOTHING-n fact
mems and boys wear Of all kinds-at such
enormous reductions that would and has
convinced the people Of our sincerity and
anxiety to speedily convert all Of our naer-
chandise into cash, thereby enabling us to
wind up our affairs in this city as speedily as
possible It is barely likely that through
jealous competition an impression may have
been created that it is another of trying
to palm off an old stock, thereby being en-
abled to buy fresh supply. Through un-
scrupulous advertisements sales Of all sorts
have. so to speak, become a threadbare chest
nut all of which being caused by merchants
advertising one thing and invariably mean
inq-and doing another We therefore again
take this particular method to reassure the
people that ours is a straightforward genu-
inc SELLING OUT SALE reserving moth
ing and paying no attention to values or
costs; and it now remains for the people to
continue TO crowd store they have
done for the past ten days, thereby benefting
themselves largely and assisting in our abso-
lutte determination Of going out of business
in the shortest space Of time possible.

quite closely over the hips, and the full

coming style for tall slender figures is
to have three bands of velvet about
three inches in width at intervals; name
ly, one at the hem, the second at the
knees, and the third at the hips. An
other popular method is to have seven
or eight rows of ribbon or velvet in grad

with quite a narrow band. Crossway

This is a question often asked of people
familiar with the state, and the
are not always in the affirmative or the
negative. Looking at Denver, which
stands near the eastern slope of the
Rockies, and is sustained by the same
as those which form the chief
industries of Montana, the advocate of
the affirmative side Of the proposition
finds a strong argument. Colorado pre-
coded Montana by more than ten years

pastures as many sheep. horses and cat
