Overwhelming Victory at the
Polls for the Bond
Proposition.
FOLSOM ROAD WILL NOW
BE BUILT.
Members Of the State Highway
Commission Gratified Over
the Result.
Special Dispatch TO The GAIL

SACRAMENTO, Dec. 4-One cannot
find man in Sacramento County tonight
who will say he voted against the Folsom
boulevard. o. course there we're a few
who did, but when one tries to put his
finger on them they are not there.
The returns tonight show the greatest
victory for progress and prosperity ever
chronicled in the county. The result in
favor of bonding the county for the
building of the Folsom road is nine to
one. Even in the country, where some
thing like a showing was expected to be
made by the silurians, they lost and a
two-thlrds vote was cast in favor OF the
project At expert made an estimate of
the vote of Folsom and gave to the oppo-
sition no more than twenty votes. When
the returns came in there were Just three
votes cast against it.
The only portion of the county which
has placed itself on record as opposed 10
the bond issue is found in the district OF
Supervisor jenkins. Jenkins said to The
CALL correspondent that if the PROPOSE
ton was defeated in his district he woul.i
be willing to take the responsibility Now
that it was defeated in that locality, the
people down there will no doubt be glad
that Jenkins has assumed so much.
The little town of Gait as was expected,
piled up big vote against the bonds.
There were 1865 votes cast. Out of this
very large vote there were only 1853 in op-
position TO the bond proposition. The
vote by Supervisor districts vas as fol-
lows:

is insidious, and men do not realize that
they are in its clutch. While consumption
is a germ disease, the bacilli will not in
wade sound and healthy lungs. The lungs
must first be in diseased condition.
First a man feels a little out of sorts.
Probably he is overworked and has given
too little time to eating, sleeping and rest
ing. His appetite falls of. His digestion
gets out of order and his blood does not
receive the proper amount of life-giving
nutriment. The liver becomes torpid and
the blood is filed with impurities. These
are pumped into every organ of the body,
building up unhealthy, half-dead tissues.
The most harm is done at the weakest spot
and most frequently that spot is in the
lungs. A slight cold leads to inhamma-
ton, the bacilli invade the lungs and we
have a case of consumption.
Ninety eight per cent. of all cases of
consumption are cured by Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. It is the great
blood-makeT and hesh-builder 1t restores
the lost appetite, makes the digestion per-
feet, invigorates the liver, purihes the
blood, builds new and healthy flesh and
drives out all impurities and disease germs
It cures weak lungs, splitting of blood, obsti-
nate coughs and kindred ailments. No hon.
est druggist will recommend a substitute.
Mrs. Ursula Durham, of Sistersville, Tyler Co.,
". Va, writes: 81 had pain in my side all the
time, had but little appetite and grew very thin
The Golden Medical Discovery promptly
cured the pain, restored my appetite and in
creased my weight"

According to the statistics furnished
BY the American Woolgrowcrs' asso-
citation, Montana leads all the states
and territories of the union in the num-
Der of her sheep and in the quantity of
wool produ, d during the last year. In
addition to this, the wool of Montana is
pronounced to be of superior quality
and higher grade than that produced by
any other of the newly created western
states. The number of sheep assessed

year 1896 was asia, 829, which showed
an increase of more than 21O, 500 over

Gsrnett Eagle:
While in Garrett Mr.. Stephens saw
that temperance literature was car

Thus far during the year the temper

over half million pages of such mat
ter, and will likely distribute another
half million pages before the end of
the year.
One of the most interesting things
in the circular referred to is an in
