During the winter of 1897 Mr.. James
Reed, one of the leading citizens and
merchants of Clay, Clay county, W. Va,
struck his leg against a cake of ice In
such a manner as to bruise 1t severely.
1t became'very much swollen and panied
him so badly that he could not walk
without the aid of crutches. He was
treated by physicians, also used several
kinds of liniment and two and a half
gallons of whiskey in bathing it, but
nothing gave any relief until he began
using Chamberlain's Pain Balm. This
brought almost a complete cure in a
weeks time and he believes that had he
not used this remedy his leg would have
had to be amputated. Pain Balm is
unequaled for sprains, bruises and
rheumatism. For sale by A. G. Ireland.

ANG0RA GOAT RAISING.
A Business That Pays Well In All Sections
of New Mexico,

The interest In Angora goat raising
has grown very rapidly during the last
two years, and a number of the agri-
cultural journals are giving attention to
the subject, but yet there are so few
Angora breeding establishments in the
entire country that very few have any
practical knowledge of the best method
Of handling them. On farms where there
is brush or underground to get rid of
they will clean out the nuisance in short
order. They thrive well in such range,
and especially if the country Is hilly and
rough, as they have hard, split hoofs,
and do better on hard, stony land.
There are very few men who have
given special attention to Angoras, and
these men have been successful and
have made money at the business. They
manage them much as sheep are man.
aged, the principal difference, perhaps,
being that the kids ara kept up for a
month or so after being dropped, in
stead of being allowed to follow their
dams as lambs do. Goats travel much
faster and move about more in graz
ing than do sheep, and the kids, until
several weeks old, would soon become
worn out If permitted to follow their
mothers from the first.
Many portions of the west are pecul-
iarly adapted to Angora raising. The
meat Is excellent, better than the meat
Of the common goat, and preferred by
some to the best mutton. The fleece Is
generally worth from 81 to 49, according
to grade, each year. and the skins bring
a good price on account of the long,
silky hair. The hair of the Angora skins
Is often colored to resemble some Of the
more valuable furs, and the counterfeit
it seldom detected except by experts. At
present the supply Of mohair in the
United States Is far below the demand
for 1t, and the industry of raising Ango-
ras in those portions of Texas adapted
to it must be a very profitable one.

Wonby the Railroad.

The Duluth & Iron Range raiiroaa
wins In the Duluth land office in the
gravel pit" case. The title of the
case 10 Eleanor 3. Black and f. W
Rayburn against Patrick Donovan.
The land involved Is forty acres near
the line of the new Stewart River
branch Of the Duluth & Iron Rangs
railroad.
The land was entered by Donovan
under the timber and stone act. In
making his affidavit he was obliged to
testify that the land was more valu~
able for its timber and stone than for
agricultural purposes. Subsequently
Eleanor R. Black and F. W. Rayburn
brought contests on the ground that
the land was not valuable for either
timber or stone.
The case opened new point
whether or not gravel should come
under the meaning of timber and
stone according to the law. Donovan
maintained that gravel would CONS
under the head of stone, while the
contestants claimed otherwise, that
the land contained neither timber nor
stone and could not therefore be SUBJ
ject to entry under the timber and
stone law.
The land officers, in deciding the
case, hold that gravel is stone, but
find that there is no evidence before
them to prove that it is gravel, and
they award Eleanor Black the right
to enter under a soldiers additional
that had been filed and suspended.
The Iron Range road is said to
want this gravel pit badly, it being
the only known one along this part OF
the road. Miss Black is employed in
the Office Of the road, and the road
will probably get it il she wins all
through the department. A singular
feature is that the land was once
offered as an Isolated tract, but its
character was not known and it was
not sold.

Basis Fixed for 1899.

Unexpectedly the ore freight mar.
ket opened the past week and at this
writing enough has been done to fix
the basis for 1899. Contrary to all
calculation this is 60 cents from the
head of the lake for the season. 1t
need not be said that this duplication
of the season rate of 1898 will have
its effect upon the price of ore, for it
removes from the account one of the
factors of increased cost on which the
talk of probably higher ore has been
predicted. The allowances in these

The conclusion to be drawn is that

boats have shown fair profit at go

to try conclusions with another sea-
son on the same basis in spite of ths

THE TIME CHECK.
A Bill Introdu ced Which VIII Probably
Pass-A Good Thing.


A Bill Introdu ced Which VIII Probably
Pass-A Good Thing.
Senator Mccarthy, of Grand Rapids.
introduced a bill.in the senate yester-
day which is aimed at the abuse of
the time check practice in vogue
among loggers in northern Minnesota.
The injustice done men employed in
the pineries by issuing time checks
payable at distant points and at dates
long in the future has been frequently
pointed out and the necessity for
legislation that will protect the men
and insure them the full and prompt
payment of wages has been urged.
Udder the existing practice man
employed In ST. Louis county. for in
stance, at the time of his discharge is
given time check payable in Mime
apolis enc, two or three months hence.
He may have only $40 or s25 due him.
To get the money he must 60 to Min
neapolis and wait patiently until his
time check is due, or sell it at a dis
count to the nearest bank or dealer in
that class of paper. If payment is
refused he has lien on the logs, but
cannot foreclose his lien save in Hen
nepin county. An inadequate sum is
allowed him for the payment of at.
torneys' fees, and he cannot recover
for his own time spent in the prosecu-
tion of his claim.
By the provisions Of Senator Nc
Carthy's bill, employers are required
to pay their men in cash at the time
of quitting, and if they are not paid
they can file lien on the logs in the
county where the work was perform
ed. On all claims of less than 800
they are allowed an attorneys fee of
s25, which will permit of their en-
plsying good lawyers. In addition to
this they can recover e1.50 per day
from the time the lien is filed until
the verdict 10 rendered.
Senator Mccarthy said that while
his bill may seem severe. it will work
an injustice to no one. Loggers.
when they dismiss an employe, will,
IL the bill becomes a law. simply pay
him in cash what is due him rather
than take the chances of a lawsuit
which threatens such severe penalties.
He makes no attempt to require oper-
ators to pay men before the end of
their service, for they do not. want
their money until they are ready to
leave camp, as rule and many log
gers would be forced out of business
il they were forced to pay wages
monthly or semi-monthly. Senator
Mccarthy expects the bill will be met
with strong opposition, but he in
tends to push it to the best of his
ability.

We mean the grip. All Ely has
been a-chooing for two weeks and
while there have been no deaths As
the result, the ailment nevertheless
has grip on our Threats to such an
extent as to make the operation OF
eur industrial plants serious prob

disease Is pandemic in the United

II sees epidemic and goes 1t several
blue chips better. This is the kind
OF word needed to fit the present grip
condition. The grip might be cpl
demic in Tower and all the rest OF
the country be free from IT but when
We say it Is pan demic we mean that
Americans from Maine to California
are suffering from 1t. The statement
il made that the grip seige is not as
severe as the original one OF nine
years ago. This Is comforting.
It Is mo joking matter however.
The results of the grip ravages are
something remarkable. There are
several times more workers temper
arily absent from their accustomed
places than were Withdrawn to fight,
Spain. 1t is also a gruesome fact that
the. gripinvasion means more fatal
tiles than occurred to our soldiers dur
ing the entire war. We may grin at
the grip but glimpse at his aide-de-
camp, pneumonia, takes all the humor
out of the situation. History shows
that similar disease originated in
the year Ais B. c. In 1880 serious
epidemic of the grip originated in
China and spread all over Europe. In
1882 it invaded America. But it was
in 1889 that the q. S, suffered most
from the grip. That year it came
from Russia. Medical experts say it
10 con tagious as well as infectious.
There are others. We mean all

affairs of on the editor. Do 1t your
SELF.
1t is claimed by the Twin City
dailies, that venlson In immense
quantities is being sold In all the
northwestern towns, Ely, Tower and
all over this country where big game
abounds and that the game laws are
being openly violated. The st. Paul
and Minneapolis papers may know
much about it but people on the
ground claim such Is not the case.
No one In this neck of the woods
claims the killing Of game for use a
violation of the game laws and only
consider wanton destruction such as
is manifest every fall when hunters
from every state congregate and act
ually destroy more big game in the
few days of the open season than the
inhabitants do in q hundred years.
And now uniform game law with
a license fee attachment Is on tap to
further assist these outsiders. The
Door claimholder who lives on his
land with the intention Of making a
home would be fool to go to town
and buy meat when there is plenty at
his very door and upon his own prop
erty to be had for the taking. The
license fee would assist honest men
to go hungry so that these bands OF
hunters from Iowa, Illinois and other
states could come during the few days
of open season and shoot away the
larger part of the game from the very
nose OF the struggling homesteader.
A better solution to the problem
would be to keep outsiders out OF the
state during hunting times or make
their licenses large enough to make
them prohibitoIy.
At last the wench, Weathers, has
received part of her Just desserts.
This black imp has harrassed st.
Louis county authorities for many
years and always pulled out easily.
The shooting at Biwabik In which
the Weathers woman shot a man
whom she had first robbed, is almost
fresh in the minds Of the people. At
that time she claimed self defense
and was acquitted, This time she
committed murderous assault on a
Duluth policeman and receives four
years. Forty years was what she de-
served and ten years more for going
into Mysteries when sentence was
passed.
The matter Of better care and at
tendance for the county poor is being
agitated. It does seem strange that
a rich county like st. Louis can not
afford better care for the deserving
poor. The amount allowed by law
for destitute families is something
like ESQ per annum, a figure insufficient
to keep family of six or more In salt
and potatoes for a year. Certainly
the county has poor house, but
everybody can't go to the poor house.
Consequently the citizens of the
county are constantly with their
hands in their pockets for the assist
ance Of some poor deserving family
who is temporarily in want. Itwoul6
not cost enormous sums for the
county to contribute at least enough
to keep body and soul together.
It has been figured out by some
