Parsnip Complexion.

It does not require an expert to detect
the sufferer from kidney trouble. The
hollow cheeks, the sunken eyes, the dark
puffy circles under the eyes, the sallow
parsnip-colOredc complexion indicates it..
A physician would ask if you had
rheumatism, dull pain or ache in the
back or over the hips, tomach trouble,
desire to urinate often, or burning or
scalding in passing it; if after passing
there is an unsatisfied feeling as lift must
be at once repeated, or the urine has a
brick dust deposit or strong odOr.
When these symptoms are present, no
time should be lost in removing the cause.
Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the
bladder, inflammation, causing stoppage,
and sometimes requiring the drawing OF
the urine with instruments, or may run
into Bright's Disease, the most dangerous
stage of kidney trouble.
DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great
discovery of the eminent kidney and blad-
der specialist, is positive remedy for
such disease. Its reputation is world
wide and it is so easy to get at any drug
store that no one need suffer any length
Of time for want of it.
However, if you prefer to first test ite
wonderful merits, mention THE ISLAND

those of 1880 were $4,000, 900. The
number Of people in the United States
has been more than doubling every
thirty years since the foundation Of
the government, and the figures for
1900 promise to be moro than twice
what they were In 1870. This was q
great nation in the latter year, but 1t
has grown more in the past three de-
cades than in the entire century prior
to 1870. The increase in the past ten
years amounts to almost as much
as the entire population Of the coun'
try in 1910.

Preferred Stock Guaranteed.

The control of the fish-taking ap-
planes of lower Puget Sound by the
Pacific American Fish company is an
assured fact. The last dollar of the
100000 of stock which the vendees
asked the trap men to subscribe has
been taken. This news was tele-
graphed Mr.. Cudahy and his associates
in Chicago last Thursday, and Fri
day they started for Fairhaven to at
tend to the contamination of the deal.
The proposition which for a minute
looked serious was the refusal of one of
the Chicago subscribers, who agreed to
take $500, 600 in stock, to live up to his
agreement. Mr.. Cudahy and one or
two others at once absorbed $500, 600 of
this, and then it was that they asked
the men from whom they were buying
to take the other $1OO,OOO At a meet
ing last Thursday night this was done
and the fact wired to Chicago.
The capital stock of the company is
SIS, 100000. OF this 81, OO0, 900 is pre-
ferred and 81, OO0, 900 common. In part
payment, which averages about y per
cent of the purchase price, the trap
men are given preferred stock at par.
For every dollar OF preferred StOcK TAX
en- at par they are given dollars
worth of common stock.
The preferred stock is guaranteed to
pay per cent per annum.
LATER.-R. Onffroy, general mana
ger of the big Bellingham Bay fish
trap combination recently formed by
Chicago parties, arrived in Seattle
from the East Tuesday and went to
Whatcom the same afternoon for the
purpose of paying over $500, 900 to the
fish trap owners who sold out to the
company.

The 0flcial PAPER of San Juan County
THURSDAY. MARCH 30, 1899.
THE TIDE OF IMMIGRATION.

The Post-Intelligencer says thai
"Every overland train that arrives on
the Great Northern, Northern Pacific,
Oregon Railroad and Navigation and
Canadian Pacific is bringing hundreds
of people who will go to make up the
permanent population of the North
west. Nearly all of these people have
money, and have come with the in
tention and ability of buying ranches
if they cannot find INDICATED land to
suit them. It is difficult to estimate
the number of men, women and chill
dren that have arrived in Washington
in the last month, but a conservative
statement is that there have been fully
5000" How many of these people
have come to San Juan county to set
tie? So far as we know, not single
one, although there is every reason to
believe that a great many of them have
settled on localities far less desirable
than the larger islands of this county.
The railroads are naturally doing all
they can to promote settlement upon
lands contiguous to their lines, and the
commercial organizations of the Sound
cities are of course using their best
efforts to encourage immigration to the
counties in which they are located.
1t cannot reasonably be expected that
these organizations will advertise the
advantages of this county, nor can it
be expected that people who have
never heard of the county will come
here in search of homes. We have
not the good fortune to be located upon
any of the great routes Of travel and
there is for that reason the greater
need of special efforts to induce people
to come here. If the business men of
the county and land owners who de-
sire to sell portion of their holdings
would only unite in the organization
OF county board of trade to gather
and disseminate reliable information
about the county and answer promptly
and intelligently all inquiries concern
ing it, much might be accomplished at
small cost. Unless something of this
kind is done we need not expect our
population to be materially increased
by the tide of desirable immigration
now flowing to the shores of Puget
Sound.
