ofInterest to Pork Consumers.

Eds. Record Union: While there is
being so much said and done about the
sanitary conditions of our city, it might
be as well for our good people to be max
ing some inquiries in regard to their food
supply. especially those who use pork
from the local markets.
l would like to call the attention of the
pork-eating people of this city to the fact
that hogs are being disposed of here that
have been fed and fattened on horse flesh,
and not altogether the flesh of sound ami
mails either. but old and decrepit horses
that have outlived their usefulness, and
others that are afflicted with incurable
diseases and are only fit to kill. The flesh.
the manager says. is cooked, and conse-
quenlly as good hog food as anything,
but the consumer should be the judge in
that case.
In conversation with local Chinese
butcher, he told the writer that he would
not under any circumstances handle
such pork, or no other Chinaman il he
knew what the hogs had been fed on, and
if the Chinese are not buying these hogs
who is it that is? INQUIRER.

which may turn out badly.
Sleeplessness means either one or
both of two things: First, --.uney
trouble; second, brain trouble.
But If there is brain trouble it is
probably a complication of the kidney
trouble.
Bright's disease, the most dangerous
kidney trouble there is, is generally &C
companied by sleeplessness.
Nine times out of ten the sufferer
from Bright's disease doesn't find OUT
that he has it until it is almost too late
to be cured
The symptoms are so like unimport-
ant sickneSses that you don't think you
need a doctor, and so things go on until
the doctor can't help you.
Even then DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kid
ney Pills would probably be able to cure
you.
But that is another matter.
To return to sleeplessness.
No one can do without sleep for more
than few days.
Sleeplessness is drain on your brain
and your vitality. 1t must be stopped
or something will give way.
DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills will
cure SleepleSSneSS.
They do it by curing the kidneys, by
taking away the cause of the whole
trouble by purifying the blood.
Asparagus has a special effect on the
kidneys, as every one who has eaten it
knows.
This effect is strengthened and made
mere powerful in DR.. Hobbs Sparagus
Kidney Pills.
If it is your kidneys which cause your
sleeplessness, DR.. Hobbs Sparagus
Kidney Pills will cure it by toning them
up and giving them fresh life and
strength.
If it is your brain, by cleansing and
renewing the blood, through the i'm
proved action of the kidneys, DR..
Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills will cure
the brain by giving it fresh nourish-
ment and new life
To be healthy and to do your best
work you must have enough sleep.
When you are losing it, few doses
Of DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kidneys Pills
will cure you and bring rest to your
tired body and mind.
Besides sleeplessness, the symptoms
Of kidney trouble are headache nerv-
BUSINESS, shortness of breath, evil fore
bodings, the loss of flesh swelling of the
feet and ankles pain in the back
All these symptoms are caused by
sick kidneys. All of them can be cured
by DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills
When no other drugs or medicine will
give you relief Dr. Hobbs Sparagus
Kidney Pills will. The preparation Of
Asparagus from which they are made
(and which is made by a special process
for these pills. has never been known to
fail.
DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills are
for sale at all druggists for so cents a
box, or will be sent postpaid to any ad-
dress on receipt of price
A few doses will relieve. A few boxes
will cure.

William Lowell. Republican nominee
in the Sixth Ward for a Trusteeship, was
first among all the candidates to declare
for milk and food inspection in this city
by official authority. His experience
while upon the police force has convinced
him OF the necessity for a food inspector,
and he proposes when installed in office
TO make this subject OF food inspection q
special matter OF study and inquiry, and
TO advocate persistently the establishment
of an inspection system. Mr.. Lowell is
right in his proposition, and the Record
Union promises him it's hearty support
in carrying out his idea. The Record
L Mon urged this matter upon the people
two years ago. 1t has repeated the call
many times since. It will continue to do
so until action is taken, because it knows
how necessary such inspection is, and
how closely it is related to the public
health.

not be a great deal, and declare it could
be made the finest ride in the State with
very little outlay. We hope they will

He Takes in Two suspects and Also

While hunting for County Jail escapes
on Sunday morning about o'clock,
Deputy Sheriff Hinters found a horse
and cart, evidently stolen, tied under a
saloon shed at Brighton. The cart con-
tanned roll of blankets and a pair of new
snoes. Hunters brought it TO town, and the
owner can get it by applying TO him.
He also captured two men near there
who claimed TO have been put off train
near the American River trestle, and
who had on their persons g lot Of razors,
two watches, some ladies' pins and tor
toise-shell combs. They had what pur-
ported to be a bill of sale for the articles
from San Francisco house, but their ac-
lions were so suspicious that he held

TRYING FOR THE CONVENTION

a very gratifying spirit is now mani
fest in this matter of inducing the Ma
tional Republican Committee to call the
National Republican Convention OF 1896
in California. For once Californisns are
pulling together. They are putting aside
the small matters as TO who originated the
who is doing tho most to secure the de-
sired end. and as to who is 70 pose most
prominently. For once We are a unit in
desire for the common good.
We want the convention not because it
will introduce Northern, Central or
Southern California, or The metropolis or
the Capital to the thousands of expected
visitors, but that the State Of California
may be made known to them regardless
Of section or place Here we are away
off on the western verge of the CONT
nent and nation. with not yet eight Of
population to the square mile, but with
capacity for homes for millions, and
practically our State is not half known to
our brethren at the East.
We want them to come to US on such
an occasion as that Of 1896. to see just
what we have, to learn of our needs and
our claims. to honestly inquire into our
rightful place in the nation. and to under
stand how necessary it is that California
should be more rapidly developed in the
interest of the whole people of the re-
public.
We cannot bring large body of repre-
sentative men from all the States and
Territories so well, so easily or under
such suspicious circumstances as those
attaching TO the assem- bling of the ma
tional representative body OF one of the
great political parties of the Union. This
whole scheme is one, therefore, TO which
every man can lend his energies with the
consciousness that he is doing a good
work.
Every man can do something in this
matter. For instance, let each one who
has an Eastern correspondent who has
confidence in him at once sit down and
present California's case, and urge that
correspondent to bring proper influences
to bear upon the Committeeman from
that particular State to favor California in
locating the convention. 1t may be that
the Committeeman is already for Califor-
MIA, but it can do no harm to forward the
plea, just the same. There are Commit
teemen who are favoring Pittsburg and
some who uphold the claim OF Chicago,
nevertheless we will not go amiss
if we correspond with friends in all the
States, for we can give those committed
to our cause greater strength the more
we enlist them in our behalf. Whatever
is done must be done speedily, as the
National Committee meets within tho
next five weeks, and meanwhile our
rivals are allowing no grass to grow
under their feet. They have the advan-
tage, also, of being nearer to the Com
mitteemen and able to appeal to them
frequently.
