CATARRH AND BRONCHITIS.
Hundreds Being Cured by Dr.. A. j
Shores New System.
Breathing Balm and EealinG
Oils Applied Direct Into the
Diseased Air Tubes.
Patients Are Now Being Cured of
Catarrh and Chronic Bronchitis,
and Permanently Cured, by
DIR. A. j. Shores Go.

Doctors have been oomplaiptng for thou,
sand years that they couldn't cure bronchitis.
But this has been because they dEdn't Snow
how. or hadn't means for applying eurftiVes
rectIy accessible TO curative inhalations; and
the only effective treatment is by an in
breathing of vaporiZed remedies of tran
cendent healing virtue till the sore and in-
or soaked in it. or eftectually impregnated
with il, for the period necessary to perma-
nently ailay its infiammatiohs and perma-
nentiy abate its pains.
The usual method Is not to send healing
vapors down the windptps to the burning
bronchia. but to send arsenic aud opium so
lutions, etc., down the breadpipe to the
stomach thence to be carried up and down
the whole live body and be diHused through
out the whole wide system.
This zigzag doctoring isn't the right way to
treat bronchitis. which is toe firm and for
midable and strongly rooted nalady to be
IooSened or shaken by any such toolishness.
1t must be got at locally, immersed IN oily
vapors.
There can be no adequate and edectual
medication of diseased bronchial tubes ex-
cepting by the method practcea by Drs.
SHORES & HOWE. The healing vauars
which they administer by inhalation are as
balm and ointment poured from q cup directly
upon the fevered brohch1a. Their strong
remedial virtues are not wasted or lost By be-
ing useIessly diffused throughout the entire
anatomy, but reach the place 0f disease In their
abundance and enttrety-in their full curative
potency-like bentgnant s2lye upon an
ugly wound. Ors. SHORES q HOWEsS easy
and complete mastery OF bronehIal oatarrh IL
numbers OF sufferers to DPs. SHORES &
HOWE'S parlorS. 1t is simply because
the method they EN- ploy is the only method
by which the disease can be directly medI-
Gated with the freedom, fullness, potency and
abundance requisite 10 its radical and per-
manent mastery.

A SUGGESTIVE QUESTION.

The San Francisco Chronicle" of yes
terday has a long and interesting story
in which it tells of the success of the
officers of the Southern Pacific Company
in establishing freight rate lists for
goods going out of San Francisco and
California generally, into the region be-
yond and at the terminus of the Central
Pacific Railroad at Ogden, by which
the commercial interests of California
will be greatly benefited, and our mer-
chants enabled to compete with Eastern
jobbers for trade in the Great Basin,
and the State and territorial region of
Utah, Idaho and other sections. It is
conceded that this adjustment has been
made in the face of the antagonism of
lines from the East leading into the
same regions, and the interests of which
reside in California being deprived of
that trade We shall now expect to see
some wild-eyed impracticable of the
anti-xailroad fanatical school, jump

orally are productive of good results,
since they consider principles, educate
young men into thoughtful attitudes
concerning the free institutions. en-
large public information concerning the
history, purpose and destiny of the ma
ton, the State and the city. There are
numerous good government clubs in
the country, some 200, we believe. Many
of them are doing good; some are rank
failures, because they are nothing but
political Intermediates, and the medi-
ums through which cranks, dreamers
and wild-eyed thorists project their
impracticable schemes upon public at
tention. A club of American civics, how
ever, conducted apart from and above
mere localism, with a view to consery-
ing patriotism, decency, cleanliness,
economy and general betterment by
instructing men in the principles of
good government. and boldly but with
out heat or froth exposing errors of
thought and practice in government,
and having no affiliation with or lean
ing towards partisan politics-such a
club may be made the instrument of
great good in a community, and espe-
ciaIly in this and other California COM

NOTE AND COMMENT.

The Stockton Mail" has issued a
very handsome Railroad Edition, .
mainly expository of the advantages of
Stockton and the great San JOAQUIN
Valley. 1t is very beautifully illustrated
and filed with bright, well-written ar
ticles, which will interest the home peo-
pie as well as the investment-seeke
The meeting in San Francisco Mon
day night to protest and petition
against the Armenian outrages was
timely. 1t was distinguished by a firm,
strong expression of abhorrence for all
manner of oppression, intolerance and
persecution. That it's resolutions will
effect much may be doubted, but they
will serve at least to put the leading
California community on the side of
tolerance, mercy and humanity.
The San Francisco Bulletin" in re-
citing the story of scandal in a SUBJ
ordinate office under the Harbor Com
mission, says that what involves the
matter considerably is that the in
cumbent is related to the Governor of
the State, because the cousin of Gov
ernor Budd married the brother of the
accused official Gods and fishes here
is relationship for youi 1t parallels that
of the fellow who claimed relationship
with another, because the chickens of
the latter's great-gra ndfather roasted
in the tree tops of the grear-aunt of the
former.
Banker Morgan, says the latest dis
patch, admits that the popular loan is
a success. He believes now that the
bonds of the Government will be taken
by the people. Mr.. Morgan is a keen
financier; he knows, as we have held
all the time, that the loan is in the in
terest of small investors and poor men,
and that no better investment can be
offered them for their savings. There
fore, he reasons, they will avail Of it.
Mr.. Morgan is right.
A proposition is mooted to form
good government club in this city SIM
liar to those of Eastern communities,
and several thoughtful men are push
ing the project. Good provided always
that the club is purely and solely good
government club and not local polit-
ical meddler and machine. The meet
ing of thoughtful citizens to exchange
views upon the questions of patriotism,
clean government, economies of gov
ernment, human liberty, the relation of
the citizen to his Government, the duty
of the Government to the citizen and
the obligations and duties of citizen
ship generally always is desirable, for
all these are studies that should be more
promoted than they are, and any club
moving upon the plane indicated must
have trend for good and the better
ment of conditions But a citizens club
that is promoted merely for the putting
of one fellow in and another out; that is
conceived in the idea that a change in
the incumbency of Office is a reform;
that men and not principles determine
the measure and scope of reforms; that
assails parties only by establishment of
other parties-all such are deceptions
and ineffective for good. Associations

Civics and to the American Society of

into the ring and denounce the Southern
Pacific Company for favoring California
trade. And this suggests the question,
if the Central Pacific road should be
taken out of hands and control the in
.terests of which make 1t friendly to
California business and production. as
these same impracticables would have
done. what would be the result? Would
the road be operated in the interest of
California, or of the majority partners
at the East?

been said, or of energy or commercial
spirit making it necessary or advisable
to establish patriarchism to monopolize
the Office and function of trade, which,
to best conserve the highest interests
of the people, should be free
There can be no substitute for COM
petition of business interests that viii
not operate to the establishment of
autocracy and the rehabilitation of
slavery. What the condition of our
country would have been without the
freedom of competition and business
pursuits that we have fostered, the
simplest can easily understand. The
fools who would overthrow the system
ulation, are at once the foes of free
government and the worst enemies of
the poor man.
The Government will never take the
Pacific roads. That it will demand and
receive its due, is but to state what is
just. If, however, the shallow dema-
gogues and clamorous idiots, whose
mental vacuity leads them to fancy
that they are playing to popular favor,
could have their way, there would arise
complications between the States that
would disrupt the Union. Judicial con-
flicts would occur between the State
and Federal sovereignties that would
render justice mockery. State and
Governmental authority would clash,
and result either in the abandonment of
ownership or the establishment of an
autocratic Capitalization that would
mean the death of freedom.
Suits for damages could not be prose-
cuted, since the Government could not
be made defendant, and all such claims,
reservoired in Congress, would be the
spring and fountain of monstrous cor
ruption and legalized plunder. Suits in
settlement of shortages would have to
go to the National Legislature and sub
nit to the adjudication of party politics
and the dictation of lobbyists and of
powerful combinations of shippers,
even if they were ever paid by bill as
other personal claims are discharged by
the Government.
A vast army of subservient hirelings
would be at the beck of the party in
power; the strong commercial States
would dictate to those of less
strength; the centers of population
would disregard the interests of smaller
communities; and so on through the
whole impracticable scheme of CEN
tralization, restraint of and interfer-
ence with the jealous law of commerce,
which brooks no rival, and will never
be the willing tool of political power.
We repeat, great minds, statesmen
who look up to broad horizons, thought
ful men, lovers of free government,
believers in the stability of American
institutions, have not yet conceded that
the necessity is upon us of enslayement
to a Federal power that would, as
operator of railways, be bureaucratic
in a degree not equaled in the world.
The demand" is voiced only by jab-
bering demagogues, radical socialists
and journalistic braggarts, who assume
a wisdom that knows them not.
