500 Reward, 500.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the
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 pow
ers, that they offer One Hundred Dol
lars for any case that it fails to cure.

Clary Gets Judgment.

w. II. Clary, who some time ago in
stituted suit in San Francisco against
the Sheep Ranch Mining Company, was
given a Judgment last Monday by which
the sale of 10000 shares of the stock
was prohibited The stock was delin-
quent on the assessment due. and had
been advertised for sale. In his COM
plant Clary set up that he was the
owner of 1000 shares of the stock and
had lien on 1920 shares on account of
a Judgment obtained against G. L..
Feusier and D. Gutmanu for $50, 900.
He also alleges that Feusier, the presi-
dent, and Gutmann, the manager of
the company, had the assessme Mt
levied, not in good faith, but to freeze
him out.-Prospect.

WHY NOT DELAY 1T.

A proposition is before the super
visors to build a new iron bridge
across Suffer creek in the town of
Suffer Greek. A petition will also
be presented, askir, the board to
call an election 10 determine the
question of Incorporating Suffer
Greek as city of the sixth class,
If the incorporation carries it will
withdraw that town from participa-
ton in the cost of main tanning the
roads outside the limits of that town.
1t will at the same time, impose
upon the incorporation the duty of
looking after all roads and bridges
within the city limits. Now, as this
proposed new bridge is within the
heart of the town, if Incorporation
succeeds, it will take the bridge out
of the Jurisdiction of the board of
supervisors. 1t would hardly be
fair to ask the county to build a
costly structure within the town of
Suffer Greek before this incorpora-
ton question is settled. If the
proposition is defeated, of course
the county will build the bridge. If
it carries, however, it should be left
for the town to take care of out of
its city treasury. 1t seems to us
the board of supervisors in justice
to all parties might postpone definite
action on the bridge building project
until the incorporation issue is set
tied. Whether it carries or not the
county as whole will have to bear
the costs of the election and other
expenses incurred. We cannot
avoid this. But there is no necessity
for rushing the bridge while the in
corporation question is unsettled.

The Call of Yesterday contained a,

The Call of yesterday contained an
article touching upon political af-
fairs within this senatorial and as
sembly district, and particularly
aimed against the political aspira-
tions of W. G. Ralston, the present
assemblyman from Calaveras county.
The Call may be republican paper,
but if so it is displaying very poor
judgment in stirring up matters
which can only have a tendency to
create factional quarrels within the
party ranks. 1t seems to show far
greater zeal in pushing its personal
friends for nomination, than in elect
ing republican candidates after nom
nation. The papers of this district
have so far shown good Judgment
in refraining from saying aught
against the aspirations of either
Senator Davis of Amador, or W. c.
Ralston of Calaveras. They dc
not believe in precipitating
bitter fight within the republican
ranks that would imperil the election
of whoever happens to secure the
nomination. 1t was left for an out
side paper-professedly republican
but managed by a democratic

in this manner. The Call evidently
wants to split the party through
out the state the same as it is in

1t is pleasure to hear of wom-
ans club doing so practical a work
as that lately accomplished by Chi
cago organization. By planting trees
and shrubs, with grass borders and a
few Towering plants judiclously dis
posed, barren plot of city school
yard has been converted into an at
tractive little park, and that without
eliminating the necessary playground.

the educational value of such work,

fastened in place with 4O-peuny nail.
