Glenn County is to have q new court
house, and an engraving Of it appears in
the Chronicle. 1t is OF the same block
that so many other buildings OF the kind
have been taken in this State. and has
not particle of originality about it. 1t
would seem as though the architects of
California had but one pattern for court
houses and considered 1t a high crime
and misdemeanor to endeavor to depart

With all MS sins President Cleveland
is made to carry load OF obloquy just
now beyond his desserts, and others es-
cape their share. There are party leaders
who were cheek and jowl with the Presi-
dent in carrying out politics which were
bound to get the country in hole, but
they are escaping their share of public
censure by vigorous denunciation of
Mr.. Cleveland. They were anything and
for anything ''to get there"

When a Government goes into the
banking business, as this Government
has, it must take its chances just the
same as other bankers do. The chances
at present seem to be all i'll favor OF the
private bankers. They have only to
manipulate the Governments paper
money, legal tender for all debts, public
and private, to draw out of the treasury
the gold that the laws require shall be
kept on hand to redeem the Govern
ments obligations and keep all its vari-
Gus kinds of money at parity. The
sooner the Government goes out of the
banking business the better.

His Popularity Increasing.

DR.. A. c. Stoddart paid his regular
monthly visit to DeLamar Wednesday
and Thursday. An increased number
of patients calling upon him during
each successive visit is an evidence that
the doctor is meeting with success in
his practice here. The NuaeET editor
has made it point to talk with several
of his patients or with their friends and
has yet to find siugle one who is not
pleased with his treatment, while sew
eral of them express themselves as more
than grati6ed. Out Of several cases we
could instance which have baffled phys
icians, that of young girl in Jordan
Valley, daughter of Mr. Isaac Lloyd,
is notable one. Several physicians
who have examined her pronounced
her case a hopeless one and even DR.
Stoddart would not promise more than
temporary relief. But now, after two
months treatment, her parents have
strong hopes of her ultimate recovery.
Her case was pronounced to be con-
sumption aggravated by blood poisoning
until her limbs were covered with III
GERS. Under DR.. Stoddart's treatment
the ulcers have almost entirely disap-
peared and her general health has been
rapidly improving.
DR.. stoddart is portly, elderly,
white haired gentleman OF very pleas
ing address. He has been SO long the
principal consulting physician of the
Liebig Dispensary, OF San Francisco,
that be is widely known throughout
all the Pacific Coast and Inter-M Noun
tain States. His long and very wide
experience coupled with his love ofthe
science of medicine has equipped him
as only few have opportunity to be
equipped to cope with cases which must
battle those of less experience.
Itgives us additional pleasure to be
able to speak thus favorably of this dis
tinguished practitioner from the fact
that for several years past he has been,
practically, an Idahoan, as the owner of
the fine blooded animal ranch in Cam
yon county, upon which he is continu-
ally spending large amounts and devot-
ing as much of his time as he can spare
from his extensive practice. He is, SO
to speak, ranch neighbor of ours.

DR.. L-IEBIG 6 CO.
San Francisco's Most Reliable and
Successful Specialists,
Coming in August.

Dr. Stoddart, Visiting Physician and
Representative of the Liebig Worlds
Dispensary, of San Francisco, in Idaho,
Montana, Washington and Oregon, will
return to DeLamar, in Aug, for two
days only. The many calls and large
number of patients contracted with for
treatment during his former visit has in
duced DR.. Stoddart to arrange another
visit Aug, 10 aud IL, and at War Eagle
Hotel, Silver City Aug u and IS. AT
Jordan Valley Aug. 9th.
This will be a rare opportunity tomeet
in free consultation, one ofthe greatest
Specialists of the 10Th century, namely,
DR.. A. c. Stoddart, who has been ex-
aiming and consulting physician for
the Liebig World Dispensary of San
Francisco during the past IS years.
1t is we'll known that the Doctor has
treated the greatest number of patients
treated by any one physician on the
Pacific Coast, during that time. His ex-
perience in the treatment of chronic
and private diseases of men and women
has given him such knowledge that
few cases have been known to battle
his great skill.
Everyone requiring expert treatment
for chronic diseases of the Eye, Ear,
Nose, Throat, Skin, Blood and Repro
ductive or Nervous Systems, should not
fail to meet the Doctor during his May
visit to Idaho. Cut this out and be
sure and call on the date named. The
first months treatment viii be free SO
that those cured may be able to herald
the good news to their friends and fell
low citizens.
