G. A. R. Encampment.

The state encampment Of the 6. A. r.
and allied orders that were to convene at
Ellensburg june l2th. ca mot meet there,
as previous engagements of the halls
there prevent. Rev. NJ G. Cole OF New
Whatcom, member of the q. A. X.

several days with view OF making ar
rangements 20 hold the state encamp-
ment at Yakima, June -. instead. He
conferred with the members of Meade
Post No. 8, q. A. r., last Saturday and
also with the Commercial club. Fred
Hall was appointed by the club to assist
Mr.. Cole in the matter and Mr. Hall
states that everything at this end OF the
line has been satisfactorily arranged and
here seems to be no doubt but that the
tate encampment will be held here at
the time specified.

claiming in Appeal to Reason that he
has heretofore opposed fusion. This will
be news to populists and socialists in
Yakima. He was generally considered
one of the leaders in bringing about flu

populists have heretofore held in this
county.
j. B. Furman-I called the attention
of the agent of Dun's commercial agency
at Spokane to the weekly discrepancy be-
tween Bradstreet's and Dun's reports Of

for getting reports from all parts of the
country, and hence his reports were
fuller.

How quickly Hotspurs wise and witty
retort tears the tragic mantle in which
Glendower stalks, and shows beneath
the seer's robe, the motley of the rnounte-
bank. Most people would have taken
the Welchman at his word, and called
him seer, without noting the difference
between to call and to command.
Certain points of comparison are sug-
gested between Glendower's tragic claim
and the comic claim made in some spe-
cious advertisements. 81 ain a woman,

spur puts her finger right on the weak
spot of that clanorous claim by saying |:
why if you can cure woman simply
because you are woman, then SO can /
and SO can any woman" Which very
plainly brings out the common sense
fact that the cure of diseases does not
depend upon being a man or being a
zUoman but does depend upon being
trained and experienced physician.
There is, as far as is known, no quail
fed woman physician associated with
any proprietary medicine firm. 1t is GER
tain that there is no one, man or woman,
who can show an experience or record
equal to that of DR.. r. V. Pierce; more
