II wish to say in regard to my treat
ment with Doctor G. W. Shores, that I
went to him with bad case of what
was called dry nasal catarrh and that
the results of his splendid care and treat
ment is a complete cure. notwithstanding
the fact that before I went to Doctor
Shores many physicians had told me and
1t Seemd to be generally understood that
dry catarrh is something that never can
be cured.
What made my disease so offensive
d the cause of so much suffering and
misery and al the same time so impos-
sible for any but the most skillfuI spec
ialist to relieve and cure was the for
nation of deep sores all along the inside
OF my noStrils. which were covered over
with hard crust or scab. These Crusts
or scabs would grow so big as TO crowd
and clog the nose and make it look as
if it was swollen out on both sides. They
were terribly painful and caused con-
slant feeling of soreness and distress
along the bridge of the nose, in and over
the eyes, and in fact, sometimes il felt
as if the whole inside of my head was
one mass of hard ulcers Sometimes bv
a hard effort they would be unfastened
and blown out, but the sores would re-
main and the big scabs would soon re-
appear.

and slowly but surely poisoned my blood

disabled for work and but for Doctor
Shores and his wonderful treatment l 90

games are an all-important feature

the class for this alone.
Practical Work-As soon as pupils
are ready they are assigned to some
kindergarten for practice. They are
expected to be prompt and regular.
Examinations and the writing of ab-

charge that the church" controlled
the action of the latest Democratic
state convention has not yet been
made.
Tinic Miner CRep):-Brigadier Gener-
al Richard W. Young, business man
ager of the Salt Lake Herald and
Democratic candidate for the su-
prene bench, came in Wednesday even
ing to assist in the Caine-Roberts
performance and incidentally to build
up and repair his political fences. The
Miner acknowledges a very pleasant
peated. "Dick' is a fine young man,
prince of good fellows, and on per-
sonal grounds will make the strongest

of Hon. Moses Thatcher in his letter
to the people of Utah, wherein he af-
firms his intention to stay on the DEM
ocra,tic ticket as Senator. and to re-
main with his party ito the end, and
which was read in the convention yes
terday, should seal the lips forever
charge that Moses Thatcher is de-
coy"
Provo Dispatch:-During the reading
of that mild but terrible Indictment,
there was a hush like that which
comes to men and women in the pres
one Of death, or when some great ca
I lamity is impending or has fallen upon
! them. Many old veterans sat with
( bowed heads and all felt the hot blush

people are looking for rare political
treat next week. A Republican bill is
being plastered over fences and barns
announcing the glad tidinss that next
Tuesday John Henry Smith, Esq" Will
mount the stump in Brigham. Jonn
Henry's fame has reached here before
him. We have all heard Of his rash state
ment up in Cache county that the worst
thing that could happen to Titan would
be the election this fall of b. h. Roberts
Also from Sanpete, where this same John
Henry Esq" is telling that Hon. Moses
Thatcher was placed on the Democratlc
Ticket simply to draw votes ana that ne
would never go to the Senate, as ne
would die pretty soon. Come on, John
Henry Esq" if you make such crazy
statements in Brigham you may again
iook for the small boys to cry, rats:
The Democrats expect to hold ratltca-
ton meetings in nearly every precinct
in the county next Wednesday. The peo-
pie are considerably wrought up over the
political crisis and display much interest
in the address formulated at the Salt
Lake convention Tuesday.
The statement in Fridays Herald that
PRESIDENT Lorenzo Snow had become SO
stirred up over the political crisis ina I
ne mad come out and announced himselt
TO be Democrat excited much interest
up this way. The gentleman had always
been extremely careful not to say any
thing that could be construed to mean
that he favored either party. He was
seen today. when he stated that the re-
port was incorrect; he had not announced
a political preference for either party.
He said both parties embraced good
principles and good men. He still main
tains his high ground Of neutrality.
Last evening the Republicans OF this
city met in primary. AS recently pre-
dicted by The Herald, they. showed the
white feather-they appointed delegates 10
the city convention, but adjourned with
out appointing time for that convention.
They are holding off to come in after the
Democrats, who will hold their primary
tonight. The noble g. o. p.'s are afraid TO
get up their ticket first. In the conven-
ton last night they had a lively time.
They appointed the unusually large num-
Der of 80 delegates TO their will O the
wisp city convention. They are having
a great time keeping their kicker wing
in line. 1t is pretty generally, conceded
that in the end the party will have to
bend its proud neck to the youth Of this
faction and give them the mayor.
A citizens ticket for Brigham City has
been strongly in favor during the past
week. Nearly everybody would prefer a
non-partisan city eelction including the
leaders in both parties. This movement
would undoubtedly have been successful
/ but the kicker wing of the Republican
party objected. as it would do away with
their own man for mayor. The Republt-
cans seem to meekly submit to their fac
ton masters, so two tickets will be the
result,
