GOLDEN--<
>nEDICAL>
DISCOVERY.

The invention of DR.. R. V. Pierce, chief
consulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel
and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. ",
has during the past thirty years, made
record in the cure of bronchial, throat and
lung diseases that fairly entities it to out
rank all other advertised remedies for these
affections. Especially has it manifested its
potency in curing consumption of the lungs.
Not every case, but we believe
Fully 90 Per Cent.
of all cases of consumption, in all its earlier
stages, are cured by DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, even after the disease
has progressed SO far as to induce repeated
bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering
cough with copious expectoration Gnclud-
ing tubercular inatter) great loss of flesh
and extreme emaciation and weakness.
Do YOU doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease? You need not take
our word for it. They have, i'll nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis-
representing them, and who we're often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
a trial of Golden Medical Discovery"
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy einulsions" and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene-
fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for
short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypophos-
phites had also been faithfully tried iii vain.
The photographs of large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred 1naladies, have been
skillfully reproduced in book of I6o
pages which will be mailed to you, on re-
ceipt of address and six cents in stamps.
You can then write those cured and learn
their experience.

SANTA CRUZ LITIGATION.
Another Action Growing Out
of the Sale of Mortgage
Water Bonds.
T he Taxpayers Association Seeks
to Prevent the Payment
Of Interest.

SANTA CRUZ, CAL, May u.-Suit was
commenced to-day by f. A. Him, d. K.
Abeel l. I. Thurber and other members of
the Taxpayers Association against City
Treasurer Williams to enjoin him from
paying interest on the mortgage water
bonds and TO have them cancelled.
When the water-works were being built
Coffin & Stanton, who purchased the
bonds, organized the City Water Company
to carry on the work of construction. This
company was authorized to issue mortgage
bonds in sum not to exceed $500, 900. The
bonds were to be placed with the Holland
Trust Company of New York, and as rap
idly as the original bonds were redeemed
mortgage bonds for like amount were to
be Cancelled. 1t was understood, however,
that no more mortgage bonds than were
actually necessary were to be issued.
The plaintiffs claim that the entire
amount has been issued. They allege that
the City Water Company was authorized
to issue mortgage bonds without lawful
authority and that the agreement entered
into with Coffin 81 Stanton was not carried
out; hence, the authority given to issue
mortgage bonds was with out force.
In the City Treasurer hands is S5419 81,
interest due on the mortgage bonds. To re-
strain him from paying the amount is one
of the issues involved in the suit. This suit
the city may take in suits concerning re-
funding bonds. The mortgage bonds are
held in trust by the Holland Trust Com

urged the need of continuation of the
improvement of Yaquina Harbor.
