800 Reward, 500.

The readers Of this paper will be
pleased 10 learn that there is at
least one dreaded disease that
science has been able to cure in all
its stages aud that IS Catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only
positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure Is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying lhe foundation
of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in
doing its work. The proprietors
have so much faith in its curative
powers, that they offer One Hun
dred Dollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list OF
Testimonials. Address,

A noted judge advocate, who has
known Admiral Dewey for years,
said of him the other day: "He is
the last-absolutely the last-man
in the navy who would have been
picked out for the expedition
against Manila. He has always
been one of the kid glove officers in
the navy. His clothes never had a
particle of dust on them, his hands
were soft and white as a woman's
his manicure set was daily used, he
brushed his hair as often as posi-
BILE, so that not a stray lock got
rumpled, he busted his shoes with
his handkerchief. He was what we
call finicky. He was certainly the
dude of the service, using the word,
of course in its pleasant sense. But
he has shown US all what kid gloves
can do when the time for action
comes. l admire the mans blase
indifference to show, public opinion
and danger.

THE JUDICIAL PRIMARY.
NlIssoula. Montana.

Missoula, Montana.
EDITOR TELEGRAPH.
/ am informed that some Of my
friends are disposed to be resentful
because a great many populists
we're allowed to vote 10 the primary
and thus defeat me for the nomi-
nation. There is no ground for this.
Il Is unfortunate that the race was
so close, but IL / had been declared
the nominee, there is no doubt but
that Judge Conway's friends could
have seen things that they did not
like, and feel the same resentment.
Let us for arguments sake say that
the populists did defeat me. What
sort Of revenge would it be 10 60 In
and fight the democratsl How
would this spite the populists? In
the first place, / do not concede that
the populists beat me, and If ! did,
I am not made out of the kind Of
stuff that would now 90 in aud help
them tor defeating me by fighting a
democratic nominee. II they did
defeat me il is only another reason
why am determined to be a thorn
in the flesh to them as far as my
poor power will permit me.
Again, suppose they dId defeat
me, Judge Conway is not responsi-
ble for it. He did not permit them
to vote. Then why feel resent
ment against him.
l say once for all, think / made
a good race. 1 think but for the
fact 1 was called away the last week
by the death of my father l would
have been the nominee by a good
majority. l am for Judge Conway
first and last. Let no friend
of mine harbor resentment. Let
the pops "be as Spaniards and
heathens" and give them regular
Dewey broadside, so that the next
time two democrats run for Judi
cial Office they will know better than
to monkey with the buzz saw.
Yours truly,
W, Y. TOMPKINs.

1t is said that there is a township

1t is said that there is a township
in Randolph county where there
never has been a Republican vote
cast. A few years ago Republi-
can voter from Missouri strayed in
to the township, the election day
came around and it was generally
known that that fellow had serious
intentions of breaking the record.
The oldest inhabitants talked the
matter oyer and decided to do lit
tie missionary work. They went to
the newcomer and told him as how
there had never been a Republican
vote cast there and as how he would
feel so awful lonesome If he carried
out his intentions. They asked of
him as a matter Of township pride
that he cast a democratic ticket.
That new voter yielded to the re-
quest so eloquently put, he voted
the democratic ticket, is still doing
so to this day and is not sorry for
it.--Black Rock Blade.

THE PENSION SCANDAL.

In his last annual report the com:
missioner of pensions expressed the
opinion that from that time the ro,s
and the expense would rapidly de-
cline. He has revised that Opin-
ion and now says that there will be
an increase for some time to come.
The extent of this unexampled fraud
on the tax payers is indicated by
the fact that the roll has nearly
doubled since 1890. In 1895 the in
crease was a little oyer 5000. In
1897 the increase was nearly 10000.
What the increase will be the cur
rent year no man knoweth; but
probably the accession will be fear
full, tor the Congressional Record
Is about half filed with a daily list
of names added to the roll by ''un-
animous consent, and these con-
gressional additions are usually
names of persons whose claims have
been rejected by the proper au-
thorities, but are pensioned merely
because they can vote for the con-
gressmen who submit their names
and secure unanimous consent. %
Any question as to the merit of the
case is considered irrelevant, A
war now with Spain would, with
ordinary luck, in a few years double
the list and give this country a
total voting strength of 100000
pensioners-easily the balance Of
power IN any political contest
