to no good purpose.

A Garden City druggist will
donate 5 per cent of his total cash
sales during 1893 to the various
churches and the city library.
Every buyer receives ticket with
the purchase amount marked upon
it, and is at liberty to donate it to
whichever organization he wishes
to assist. The tickets are redeemed
by the druggist at S per cent of
their face value. The organization
making the largest returns receives
an additional donation of SIS, and
the second largest, $40. Utilizing
the livery of heaven to advertise
their business may be legitimate
in the minds of some people. but
the fact still remains that persistent
and intelligent newspaper adver-
tising always brings the best re-
suits. 1t is somewhat stereotyped
method, but it is far superior to
"fake" advertising OF any kind
religious or otherwise. Try it.

WEDNESDAY. DEC. zs, 1898.

1t is 10 be hoped that the in
coming Legislature will make some
radical changes in our election
laws The laws governing the
method OF conducting them need
general overnauling, and while
they are at it they might as well
make the elections less frequent.
They are at present yearly oc-
currence in Colorado, but there is
really no necessity for such poll
teal conditions. Elections cost
the taxpayers OF Colorado between
s2oo,o 900 and 5000, 600 every year,
and it is useless and absurd waste
OF money that is imperatively
needed for many other purposes.
The last election in this county
cost the taxpayers in the neighbor-
hood of 50 500, and for all practical
purposes it might just as well have
occurred the year previous or next
year. Once every two years is
often enough. The politicians
might lose some of their graft if
they only have a chance to get in
their deadly work once every two
years, but they are the only ones
who will grieve over the matter if
such conditions should prevail.
With the yearly spring city and
school elections and the county
and state fall elections we are in
one endless round of political
turmoil to no good purpose.

1t is year beyond parallel, and
goes to its close with the biggest
volume of business ever seen, says
last weeks issue OF Dun's Review.
Enormous transactions at the
Stock Exchange make some diff
ference and heavy railroad earn
ings, but when all the transporting
and speculative interests are eiimi-
mated there is still a much larger
business than in any other month
of any year. Last year the exports
were in volume greater than in any
previous month in the history Of
the country, but this year the three
weeks report shows an increase of
as per cent against 9 per cent in
imports, which would indicate
much more than $40, ooo, 900 ex-
cess Of exports this month. I'm
til now no greater volume Of
business has ever keen done in
the history Of this country than in
the closing month Of this year.

The assuits Of , 1hysieisn's Expss-
isnee and Observation for Forty.
Years. Substitute for
@s@ vseesmstiom.sa ~

DR.. NJ. Obermiller, OF Toledo,
Ohio, gives the following as the
result of over forty years exper-
ience and observation regarding
the prevention and cure OF small
pox:
"My section OF the country was
visited by severe smallpox cpl
demic, when | had occasion to OBJ
serve fifteen persons who had not
been vaccinated but had previously
used 0or rheumatic affections) an
ointment made OF tartar emetic.
All these persons were exposed to
the epidemic in attending small
pox patients, yet not one was in
fected. This gave me the idea
that tartar emetic might be good
preventive, and ! Immediately be-
gan to experiment. | took one
dram OF tartar emetIc, mixed 1t
with small quantity of lard,
(enough to form a salve) and
spread plaster the size of dime
and tied it to the left arm (above
the elbow of those persons who
came to me to be vaccinated After
twenty-four hours | removed ii,
and ordered the small eruption
that it generally had formed to be
dressed with -four and honey night
and morning until healed. Where
no eruption had formed, | repeated
the tartar emetic application.
"Also, Juniper is good pre-
ventive OF smallpox. Take, night
and morning, one-half tablespoon
ful of the fluid extract of juniper
in sugar water or gin.
"Note-Ths tartar emetic salye
must be mixed Immediately before
applying, and as little lard as pos
sible used.
TREATMENT.
1. Keep the patient middling
warm and clean.
2. Give four times day from
one-ha!i to one tablespoonful of
fluid extract of juniper berries in
sugar and water. To children give
less.
4. II there is much fever or
costiveness, dissolve one spoonful
OF cream of tartar in one pint OF
water, add sugar, and let the
patient drink as much of it as he
desires until thirst abates or the
bowels move.
4. Should the eruptions become
painful, let the patient rub the
sores with sweet oil or a piece OF
fat bacon.

TO LET JAPANESE VOTE
MAY EXERCISE RIGHT or FRANCHISE IN
UNITED STATES.
A Stipulation in the Agreement with Japan TO
Remove Opposition to ARnexa-
ton of Hawaii.

Washington. ID c., Feb. 3.-Japan has
been removed as am element in the OPP
position 10 the conSummation of the an
nexation of the Hawaiian islands by the
United States This result has been at
tanned by the conclusion of an agree
ment between our government and that
Of .JapaG Sas represented by Minister
Toru Hoshi, which, by practically sci
Hawaii, removes the only substantial
difference that has existed between the
two governments
The exact basis of the agreement has
not been made public, hut the general
scope of it is understood to be a recog-
milton of the rights of Japanese III
Hawaii TO claim equal rights with ia
panese in the United States after the
taking effect of the treaty with Japan
proclaimed in 1895. This document,
(which has not been generally taken into
account in the consideration of means
for adjusting the questions that have
arisen over the status of Japanese in
Hawaii. goes unto effect in July next
year, and among other things il confers
upon the japanese within the territory
of the United States all the rights ac-
corded TO the citizens of the most IA
yored nation, which of course carries
With it rights of naturalization and the
exercise of the rights of franchise.
Presenting that annexation is effected.
the Japanese in Hawaii will in 1899
have the same rights as those in the
present limits of the United States. All
that remains to be fixed is the status of
tie japanese during the time that must
elapse between the ratification of the
treaty and the beginning of the opera
tion of the japanese treaty of 1890.
Inasinuch as the pending annexation
treaty provides for the appointment of
commission to ,-slt the islands and
prepare such legiSlau0n as may he ne
cessary TO cOpsummate the amalgamation
of the territories, this last question can
easily he adjusted along with the other
details in the bin TO be reported to Con-
gress.
