THE PEOPLE MUST STAND IT.

A prominent attorney of this state
says the people Of Oregon will have to
stand 1t to have the American school
book trust contract fastened upon them
for six years, because the law under
which the state officials are required to
act makes 1t mandatory and they can
be mandamused II they refuse TO make
the contract.
This reveals the iniquliy Of this
school book trust law The law was
probably drawn up for the tfust by
skilful attorneys aud Is probably
founded upon decisions obtained In
other states upbolding its terms No
man has yet been found who IL willing

The Genuine and the Sham.

Every good thing has it's host of i'm
itatnrs; every genuine article its cOuat-
erieits. The imitators always choose
the most valuable and popular article
to counterfeit, so that when they claim
their sham to be equal, or as good, or
the same as "So-and- Sos" the public
may depend upon il that $50 and
Sos" article is the best of the kind.
AllcOck's Porous Plaster Is the stand.
ard of excellence the world over, and
imitators in their cry that theirs is las
good as Allcock's" are only emphasIz-
ing this fact and admitting "AIcock's"
to be the acme Of perfection, which it
is their highest ambition to initiate.
fhe difference between the genuine
and these imitators is as wide as that
between copper and gold.
The only safe way to purchasers Is to
always insist upon having Allcock'e
Porous Plaster. 1t is the only perfect
plaster ever produced.

The German emperor was snubbed
by the reichstag last Saturday. A
week ago, at the opening Of that body,
the socialist members refused to rise
and cheer for the emperor. Under his
instructions, the public prosecutor ap-
piled to the reichstag for permission TO
prosecute the. recalcitrant socialists in
the courts. 1t is the constitutional
prerogative of the reichstag to deal with
its members for any acts committed in
Its presence. The application was re.
ferred to committee, which reported
against allowing the prosecutors ap
plication. The report was adopted on
Saturday last by a vote of 1853 TO So.
This a serious and direct rebuff TO the
German emperor. 1t Is more. 1t is a
declaration that the German parlis-
ment, will not abrogate any Of its
constitutional rights aud functions even
TO crafty or at the demand Of imperial.

A Correction.

The JOURNAL, yesterday, had an item in
regard to the alleged abuse or nc giect of
Alcantara Boy at the Park house stable.
The Journal is informed that the mat
ter was grossly misrepresented and that the
horse not only had the best of care from
well-known and expert horsemen, but was
simply undergoing very common course
of treatment, by the orders of the owner,
under the direction of skilled veterinary
surgeon and the personal attention of e1-
perienced men.
The Journal hears rumors that faint
of malicious mischief and personal spite
may be at the bottom of the affair, and re-
grets that it may have inadvertently done
the horse and its trainer an injustice.
The fact that Alcantara Boy was being
driven on the street. yesterday, would indi-
cate that his condition is far from being
very serious

4 COMMUNICATION.
Correction Of a False Impression and Facts
Concerning the W. & Q. R. r.

Editors ofhc Kcnnebec JoWrnal:
As resident on the line Of the Wiscas-
set & Quebec Railroad, and as one who
has long appreciated the need of such a
road, is confident of the success of the en-
terprise, and who is interested in property
which the road has already greatly bene
flied, l wish to correct some false impress
sions and to state some pertinent facts.
The impression think, has got abroad
among many, that work along the line of
this new railroad is progressing very slow
ly OH account of lack of available funds.
Now thi, is false impression and one
which in justice to the builders of the road
and to every town on the line, should be
corrected. 1t doubtless arose from slow
ness noticed in the operations just prior to
the last annual meeting held here. But
that writing l am assured on the best of
authority any doubt as to obtaining readily
the sufficient funds, if such doubt ever
existed, was dispelled. Indeed parties who
such roads furnished money for the bonds
issued at that meeting. AS result the
work upon the road has since progressed
more rapidly than at any time since it was
begun. The builders confidently expect
TO De running TeKuidT Ielhs oct"Seh
Albion and Wi,casset by Jan. lst and will
have regular trains from Cooper's Mills and
Weeks Mills by the lst of December. l
was told yesterday by one of the builders
that they had placed their order for passen-
ger cars to be delivered by that time and
should expect and be ready for them at that
date. He said they had all the money
needed. Indeed, it seems to the writer that
the road on account of the business depres-
sion, was led to issue better bond for the
investor than for the railroad. But we will
suppose them capable to lock out for the
interest of their road. However. gold 20
year bonds that will pay five per-
cent. interest in gold semi-annualy
are not investments that long seek capital.
But as one who has interests that this road
is sure to build up, l should be the last to
criticise the builders of the road for issuing
bond paying such high rate of interest.
1t is evident that they are determined to
push the road through to an early compl'-
ton with perfe ct confidence that the results
will more than justify the issue of these
bonds. Very respectfully. A. l..

NAMES INSANE.
Commission Has Been investigating the Mum
bers and Conditions Of DeranQed.

The commission appointed under act of
the last Legislature. consisting of the Gov
ernor and Council and the trustees of the
insane hospital, to ascertain the number of
insane people in the State aud their condi.
ton, has been collecting large amount of
valuable data that will appear in the report
to be published before long. This commits
sion appointed a committee, composed of
ex-Gov. Robe, Hon. F. NJ. Simpson and
Gen. r. B. Shepherd, With n. S. Pdrinton
as clerk. Circulars were sent to the town
clerks in every part of the State, asking
questions regarding the number of insane
people in the various sections, and the con-
ditisons each was in, etc.
1t is probable that there are fully 1900
insane people in the State, but only 700
can be treated at the present quarters.
DR.. Sanborn, talking with a JOURNAL
man, yesterday, said that the number of in
sane people in this State are gradually
decreasing. OF course the numbers at the
hospital do not lessen, from Il e
simple fact that about 1900 people
of deranged minds are spread over the
State and all vacancies in the asy lum
are at once filed. DR.. Sanborn also
Informed JoURNA. man that
the people are inclined to deem it much
better to have the insane in hospital than
being cared for at home, where the treat
ment is rot generally of much use.
Just what facts the committee on this
investigation has obtained will not as yet
be made public, but it is of valuable
character, nevertheless. DR.. Sanborn and
Elk Gov. Robbie have procured Information
on their Massachusetts tour among the hos
pitfalls, that will have beneficial results upon
the care and treatment of the insane of this
State.

Dancer From Caiarrh.

The most important feature about that
very common complaint, catsrrh in the
he ad, is its tendency to develop into some
other more serious and dangerous disease.
The foul matter dropping from the head
into the bronchial tubes or lungs is very
liable to lead to bronchitis or consumption,
that destroyer which causes more deaths

catarrh originates in impurities in the

pot,le have gone home to pass Sunday
and will return, Monday, to continue the
work on the report of the board of State
assessors. The circulars sent out from the
bureau of industrial and labor statistics
about the first of October, asking what the
result of the wooden business has been
since July, have been returned, and in two
cases have cutdowns been made, while one
mill has increased the pay. Nearly all
reported that the outlook was unpromising.
The commission on immigration at
New York recently sent circu-
lar to Governor Cleaves, to ascertain
information relative to the matters this body
has under consideration. This circular has
been forwarded to Hon. S. W. Matthews to
answer. The object that the commission
ha, in view is to have the immigrants cis-
ttibuted over the country with view of
developing the industrial interess of our
land.
Questions are asked as to the race pre-
ferred, what resources need development
aud similar queries. The idea is to relieve
the crowded cities and districts of large
number of foreigners. Mr.. Matthews will
answer this circular by saying that the agri-
cultural industry will bear development and
Swedes preferred. In the northern part of
Aroostook is town called New Sweden
populated by people from Sweden, sni they
are prosperous, industrious people.

AN ALARMING STATEMENT
CONCERNING WOMEN.
HOW BAD HABITS ARE FORMED.

The Nev York Tribune SAYS: "The habit Of
taking headache powders is increasing to an
alarming extent among great number of wo-
men throughout the country. These powders a q
their name indicates, are claimed by the manu-
facturers to be positive and speedy cure for anv
form OF headache. In many cases their chief
ingredient is morphine, opium cocaine or some
other equally injurious drug having a tendency
to deaden pain. The habit of taking them i
easily formed, but almost impossible to shake
off. Women usually begin taking them TO re-
lieve raging headache and soon resort TO the
powder to alleviate any little pain or ache thew
may be subjected to, and finally like the NOR
phine or opium fend, get into the habit Of taking
them regularly, imagining that they are in pain
II they happen TO miss their regular dose"
In nine cases out of ten, the trouble is
in the stomach and liver. Take simple
laxative and liver tonic and remove the
offending matter which deranges the
stomach and causes the headache. DIR.

entirely Of the purest, concentrated,
vegetable extracts. One Pellet is a
dose; sugar-coated, easily swallowed;
