The Best Of Reasons.

The reason why AllcOck's Porus
Plasters are popular Is that they may
be relied ON TO cure;
l, Lame back, sciatioa, stiffness or
twitching Of the muscles.
,. Chest troubles, such as plenrlsy,
pneumonia, consumption.
5. Indigestion, dyspepsia, bilious
kidney complaint.
The success, however, will depend
upon the genulneness OF the plaster
used. The popularity Of AllcOck's
Porus Plasters has been 80 great that
multitudes OF limitations have sprung
up on every hand. The only sure cure

said he hoped the gentleman would
not want five delegates from one pre-
clDct. Federal officials had no right
TO cit down on Democrats, said Darcy.
Dave Holmes moved to amend to
select delegates out Of the body of the

The viva voce amendment was
adopted. In the mean time there had

John Bane arose to make a motion.
The air grew terrific with rattling Of
chairs and ten or twenty voices. Mr..
Bane's voice was lost in the din and
babel and a motion to adjourn to 1l45
swept him off his feet and hurled him
into the oblivion and tumult that pre-
vailed.
At LAO the committee on credentials
reported delegates nearly as printed
above. The j. d. Fry faction were not
allowed seats from Salem No. /. A
dozen men jumped up and charged
that their lists of names had not been
reported correctly. The chairman
offered the suggestion that they come
upon the platform and adjust their
with the committee. Forty
men arose and soon the stage was a
seething mass of Democrats. That
fountain of peace and harmony called
the Democratic party of Marion county

A resolution endorsing Cleveland
was tabled. d. J. Fry moved to re-

Vociferous tones;

BOISE CORRESPONDENCE.

Aiio le'P Dcl anu Up
Conventions having passed into his
tory and the discussion as TO which of
them consumed the most liqour hay
ing been assuaged without any salts
factory solution, and the sheep men
having pulled all the wool over all
the eyes they could find, and the
Doctors having met and decided that
they will ''never, no, never allow
any black sheep in theirs, and the
Masons having what, nobody
knows--in secret session, the conven.
ton city has been favored during the
last few days with the presence of the
best women, who came here as del.
egates to the fifth annual State Con-
venaion Of the ''Women Christian
Temperance Union. Commencing
their session last Friday night with
an audience of about thirty, they
wondered where the people we're.
During the next day an invitation
was sent to several hundred families
to attend the sessions and that night
they came, Aunt Samantha, Uncle
Josiah and the rest Of the family.
That Saturday night the exercises
consisted of Demorest Medal con
test. Lest some of your readers may
not know about it | will take line to
say that the husband of Madame
Demorest of New York, the lady who
arranges the fashions for the million.
Instituted, some years since, system
of Evolutionary contests to be par
ticipated in by young heople who re-
cite fractions of speeches of prom
inent orators who have spoken on the
subject of temperance and prohibition
Brother Demorest pays the bills, the
young people do the rest The first
time young person recites, he or
she contests for q silver medal. ANY
holder of n silver medal can contest
for gold medal The contest last
Saturday was therefore restricted to
holders of silver medals, and six
young ladies presented themselves
from Boise and vicinity. They all
spoke very well indeed, and all spoke
for straight out prohibition. 1t was
very interesting, and the prize was
won by young lady from Middleton.
BY the way, if any one wants to get
up crowd of nice people, let them |
hold Demorest Medal Contest. IL
have attended many of them in diff
Grant parts of the country, and
never knew one that the house was
not full. But that was all right for
the people were not in the same con
dition. On Sunday afternoon the
President of the Convention met the |
children of Boise and delivered a very
interesting lecture illustrated by
chart representing the difference be-
tween home of the drunkard and a
home OF the sober man. She began
by telling the boys and girls that the
gum habit was destructive of health.
In town in this state young Girl
was afflicted with swelled face and
loss of cyesight, and the Doctor pro-
nounccd the disease to have arisen
from chewing gum. The board of
health of New York city also found
that chewing gum weakened the optic
nerve and produced disease of tue
eyes. At this rate we shall have to
go back on gum. So far as the
mouth is concerned, gum ought not
to be sin it,. The convention closed
