Their Heroic Efforts in Getting

p. E. Butler. of pack train No. 3,
writing from Santiago, De Cuba, on
July %, says: ave all had diarrhoea
in more or less violent form, and when
we landed we had no time to see a
doctor, for it was case OF rush and
rush night and day to keep the troops
supplied with ammunition and rations,
but thanks to Chamberlain Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, we
were able to keep at work and keep
our health; in fact, | sincerely believe
that at one critical time this medicine
was the indirect saviour of our army
Tor if the packers had been unable tc
work there would have been no way Of
getting supplies to the front. There
were no roads that a wagon train
could use. My comrade and myself
had the good fortune to lay in sup
ply Of this medicine for our pack-train
before we left Tampa, and l know in
four cases it absolutely saved life."

RepeaI The War Tax.

The cost of the war is estimated at
$3.50, 100000. II this estimate is COR
rect the amount received from the sale
Of bonds viii leave a suplus of $50, 900
600 in the treasury. In view of this
fact, says the Silver knight, it is to be
hoped that Congress will lose no time
in repeating the aggravating and bur-
densome war tax that even Republi-
cans W II admit has to be paid by the
American people. 1t is in order, how
ever, to remind President Mckinley
that it will be agreeable to the Arneri-
can people for his Administration to
live up to the professions of the Re-
publican party and make the foreign
er pay our taxes.
II the sale of bonds placed in the
treasury is $50, 100000 more than the
cost of the war, why compel the pee
pie to pay war taxes?

Working The Weary WiIIies.

The policy OF compelling all va
grants to work on the county roads is
now in practice. The city and coun-
ty both have chain gangs. The coun
ty commissioners have signified their
willingness to allow an additional
deputy sheriff, who is to guard the
gang. Sheriff Sims has appointed Joe
Davis, who is now the guardian angel
OF the hobos, standing over them with
shot gun to prevent anything more
serious than hard work from troubl-
ing them. A gang varying In num-
bers is now daily at work on the north
side of the city. Richard Stevens, a
man who is serving SO day sentence
in the county Jail for maliciously shoot
ing neighbours hogs at Tekoa last
winter, refused to work, and as con-
sequence he has been living on bread
and water.
Owing to the fact that prisoners
brought before the police justice are,
if fined, sent to the city jail, Chief
Mackay has found it necessary to es-
tablish his own chain gang. He now
has the Cougar" and PANTHER" who
were sentenced to ten days imprison-
ment for combativeness," as Brooks
calls it, and number of Migrants, who
refuse to work at fair wages, cleaning
up the streets of the city. His men
call themselves the "heavy-foot" bri-
gade, and when new one is entered
he is said to be afflicted with "heavy-
foot" Mr.. Mackay states that more
hobos have been "handled" in the last
two weeks than for year past.

efforts to abate the tramp nuisance

Destroying Lice on Cattle.

Aloes in fine powder is a specific for
The destruction of lice on all animals,
and as it has no poisonous properties
its intense bitterness being what kills,
it can be freely applied and as it is
to be used in dry state its applica-
ton is as safe in cold as in warm
weather consequently it is free from
all objections urged against other rem
edies. Use with fine pepper box,
busting and rubbing it in all over, then
curry out inside Of a week. Or take a
pound Of fresh lard, a fourth of a
pound of kerosene oil and four ounces
of sulphur powder or flowers OF sui
phur; mix them thoroughly. With
this mixture rub the animals head
also the spine and upon the shoulders
and brisket and under the thighs and
wherever the yermin is seen. Repeat
the operation once a week until the
lice disappear, which will not be long.
Or take quassia chips, steep in water
and wash the animal thoroughly. One
application will kill the lice, and in
case Of nits that are not hatched the
second application, put on few days
after, will entirely rid the stock OF the
vermin.

The Sunflower.

1t is predicted that before many
years the sunAower will come into
general cultivation in this country.
AS a plant it has no superior for vigor,
rapid growth and prolific yield of seed
leaves and stalk, all OF which can be
utilized. The seeds are especially
good as feed for fowls, and when mix
ed with grains they are relished by all
farm animals. Fifty bushels Of seed
to the acre is fair yield, and this will
produce fifty gallons Of oil worth 81 a
gallon. In China valuable fiber,
used in silk weaving, is obtained from
the stalks, and they are OF service as
fuel and a source of potash. The
Orientals mix theiI tobacco with cured
sunflower leaves, and make a yellow
die from the flowers, which are also
rich in honey and wax. The suntiower
grows riotously in the United States,
and stands all extremes of weather
well. Plainly, it is one of natures
great gifts, but as yet unappreciated.

w. b. Hepburn has been nominated
for Congress by the Republicans of
Idaho. He is an ultra member of the
party and strict Administration man.
He is not faint-hearted IN the support
of the National platform. and will no
doubt advocate it with the greatest
enthusiasm during the campaign. As
this means the unqualified support of
the gold standard, it will be in strange
contrast with the gentleman's speech
es OF two years ago, when he strove to
make his audiences believe that the
Republican was the only true bimetal-
lie party in the land. Since then the
Republicans have pinned their faith
to the single standard, pure and sim
pie, and 1t forces party men like Mr..
Hepburn out OF the deep woods into
the broad, open prairie, where they
can be seen. Bimetallism can no
longer be held up as a shield against
the assaults of the honest double
standard people. The issue is now
plain, and neither Mr.. Hepburn, nor
any other member of his party can
twist or dlstort 1t. Perhaps they will
not desire to do so, and will come out
frankly and say they have become
welded to gold monometallism. Even
if such a confession is made, it will
not do to sheer at goldbug strength
in the State. Outside OF the mining
counties the voters are easily swayed.
This is particularly so down in the
Zion counties, on the alkali flats OF
the Malad, where the faithful still
veer with the index finger of the pro.
phets. There the gold standard ban.
ner has been quite generally raised.
and this must be overcome farther
north. In harmony with the McKin-
ley Administration, the National Com
mittee will interest itself in Mr.. Hey.
burns election, and this all-powerful
influence will furnish the sinews for a
galloping campaign. Mr.. Hepburn
will not allow his opponents TO 90 to
sleep, even with tripartite union, and
we expect to see a grand flourish OF
trumpets before the voters become the
arb tiers at the polls.-Coeur d'Alene
