The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure in
all its stages and that is Catarrn. Halls
C&tarrh Cure IS the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucuous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in its cura-
tive powers, that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to cure.

with that of others is bailment, and the
depositor does not lose his right thereby to
reclaim it. In the same case the court also
held that where a warehouseman soid
wheat to third party without the consent
of the depositor he is not estopped from
claiming damages for its conversion, unless
by acquiescing in the acts of the warehouse
man he has misled such third party. Tie
same decision further held that the fact that
:, person stores wheat in warehouse, with
kuoxledpe that it is a custom to ship the
wheat from the warehouse at a certain sea-
~on Of the year, is NOT sufficient to lmpute
kGawledse and acquiescence npon his part
that his wheat would be shipped, SO as to
create an estoppeI against him. HIS was

will, an opinion will be had all down the
line. The result will be watched tor, not
only by the lawyers, but by the bankers

court hold that the claim of the agricnitural

: RAINIER PRESENTATION.

That men can keep secret from their
wives was demonstrated last Friday even
ing at the G. A. R. hall The night in
question was the eighth anniversary of the
organization of the Ellsworth Relief Corps.
Some time prior to this date members
of the post concluded to acknowledge IN
some fitting manner their appreciation of
the valuable services the ladies had
rendered them as an organization. With
this idea in view they began to conjure over
in their minds what would be the most
suita BILE present to give them. and finally
decided to present them with banner. In
order to keep the ladies of the corps in the
dark, Dept. Commander Cooper. of Nc
Minnvil1e, was taken into the secret and un
der the supervision Of his wife. the banner
was completed.
When the corps met last Friday COM
munication from the post requesting the
pleasure of their society that evening was
read and accepted. They were still in the
dark, however, as to what the boys had in
their minds. By eight o'clock goody
number Of men and women had assembled,
when the exercises were commenced with a
| male quartette. As this was finished Ad-
jutant F. M. johnson arose from his seat,
| opened a large pasteboard box and took
therefrom the banner and placed the same
| upon staff provided for that purpose. 1t
was a handsome satin, hand painted en-
sign, trimmed with gold lace and fringe.
| On one side appeared the Maltese cross,
above which was the name Ellsworth, the
| first hero whose blood was spilled during
the late war The reverse side contains a
shield and the letters F., G. & L., meaning
fraternity charity and loyalty. In pre-
| sentlng this Mr.. johnson gave brief his
| tory of the banner or military ensign, its
| uses and purposes and in confiding it to the
| corps he felt sure the name and principles
| for which it stood would never suffer defeat
| disgrace or dishonor while in their keeping.
| The presentation speech was happily re-
sponded to by Mrs. J. B. H"rner, who. on
behalf of the corps. thanked the boys for
their thoughtfulness and assured them that
the ladies would endeavor to merit, in a
measure, at least, the beautiful token of es-
TEEN they had at this time been the recipi-
ents Of After we'll rendered musical se-
lection by Mabel, Mildred, Marion and B.
w. johnson, President Bloss made few
appropriate remarks, in which he briefly
| sketched the work being accomplished by
Clara Barton, of Red Cross fame. This es.
timable lady has extended ths work begur
by her during the late war, until now Red
Cross societies are in existence in all civil
1zed countries Legend of an Organ
Builder" was recited by Miss Lillian Ham

ceived hearty encore, to which he re

which conversation and singing of old song
were INDUCED in by all for hour, whe

DIED.

WILL At Healdsburg, Cal, March 20,
1894, John w. Will, aged As years, s
months and days.
During the past dozen years Mr.. Will
had been engaged in business in Corval-
lis. About four weeks ago he left for St.
Helena, California, in hopes of benefit
ing his health, but rapidly grew worse
and was taken to his brothers home in
Healdsburg, where he died Tuesday af-
ternoon from the effects of quick con-
sumption. The remains are expected to
arrive on the Oregon Pacific train this af-
ternoon and be taken Immediately to the
Presbyterian chhrch, where the funeral
services will be conducted by Rev.
Sharp, of the Seventh Day Advent
chnrch of Eugene. The burial will oc-
cur at the Odd Fellows cemetery. The
deceased leaves wife, six children and
a number of other relatives to mourn his
loss.

Distorted Salaries.

The movements upon the political chess
board are more numerous and artfnl than us
ual; preliminary to the coming campaign Of
the many parties likely to beiD the field, it
is to be expected that these moves will be
more complex than usual. Exaggerated and
distorted assertions therefore must be taken
with more than the usual amount Of salt.
The first apparent distortion is the exagger-
rated representation relative to the salaries
Of the state officers. Some papers are say
ing that the biennial salaries now allowed
by the state legislature are annual salaries
only. For example, it is claimed that the
salary of the attorney general is six thous-
and dollars, the salary of the governor three
thousand dollars, secretary of state, three
thousand dollars, superintendent Of public
instruction, thirty-six hundred dollars, etc. !;
and that the allowances made for clerical
| services in all the departments constitute
salaries of the elective state officers. All Of
this is deliberate and gross distortion OF
facts, as one can see at a glance if he is ia
miliar with the fact that all these appropria :
tions are made for two years, so that the an
nual salary of the attorney general is three
thousand dollars per year, salary Of the gov
ernor, fifteen hundred dollars per year, sec
retary of state, fifteen hupdred dollars per
year, and so on through the entire line. The
| appropriations for clerical services in all the
departments are likewise made for the two
years, and therefore the exaggerated state
ments of salaries are but one half of the sew
eral amounts represented. These premedi-
tated and deliberate distortions are made at
| this time for political purposes only, and are
readily transparent to all rejecting and in
| teligent people.
| The distortion Of facts indicated above are
due to the honorable (?) chairman of the
"Committee of 100" ll-known million
aires of the metropolis. as well as to the de-
liberate misrepresentation made in the Ore
| gonian of the 18th inst, in answer to the
anonymous communication from Wells sta
ton, this county, under date of the 18th
inst. The present difficulty with the afore-
said milionaires is that they are now com
! PEELED by law to pay some modicum of ia xes
which have heretofore been avoided; this,
and other obvious reasons of "the honorable
~ committee of 1902 will account for all of
their present interest III the salaries OF
county and state officials.

In some of the states it has 6een held by

OF cases, under statute soshewhat similar to
ours, the coursss shave-hcid that the banks
could get no greater title to such funds than
the person depositing the same hal in them,
and since treasurers and-otkers acting in

title to the funds thus handled by them,
they convey no title to the banks, but sim
