Although actually and apparently weakened by bis recent illness, MT. Da- wis replied in terms characteristic of the man, the substance of which was his desire to make public acknowledg- ment of the receipt of so valuable gift, and his glad acceptance of the same. Far above even its intrinsic val ue would he always consider it because of being a constant reminder of the true worth of good fellowship. He re- gretted not being able to go and thank personally the liberal donators; but through the committee, trusted that such might be done in such a manner as the lasting impression of their kind ness, thoughtfuIness and generosity de- served. He expresses his pleasure at such evidence of the good will of the miners toward him, as we'll as his wish es for their future welfare, and for the success of his successor, all of which receive the grateful endorsement of Mrs. Davis.
 MT. Davis expects to leave his room in about a weeks time; change he will greatly relish, as he appreciates the attention and sympathy of his friends and neighbors.

 The Family Shows have been made special feature and the best talent oh tainable has been secured for these oc- oasions.
 Next Friday evening will close the season and the entire proceeds of the show will be given to the cemetery fund.
 The citizens of Douglas should show their appreciation by flling the Opera House as it has never been filled be- fore. It will be the last opportunity to witness a good show, and the money paid for admission will be devoted to most worthy cause.
 Good for MT. Gius. Let the house be. filled.
 TREADWELL CITY ELECTION.
 The first election in the City of Treadwen, which takes place on Satur- day next, promises to pass off quietly aud tremendously. The selection of any seven of the candidates named thus far for councilmen will place the affairs of the young city in the hands of men of good judgment and business ability. Likewise the candidates for school directors are all men of discern ment and experience, so that the voter cannot go far wrong in either case.

1HE ELEcTloR.

Election occurs next Tuesday and
while the strife is not great here, in
certain sections notably Philadel-
phia and some of the larger cities
the campaign is being bitterly wae-
ed. It is problematical what effect
the fusion ticket will have on the
republican vote. Many and bitter
things have been said of the regular
republican nominees Tor supreme
court judge and state treasurer, and
their merits have also been we'll ad-
vocated. Voters will by this time
have concluded whether it is best to
attempt reform by going outside
the regular ticket or whether an
equally good result can be secured
by remaining within the lines. We
have county ticket which will
commend itself to all voters and
should command the undivided
support of all who are attached tc
the principles of the party.

DISAPPOINTED GOLD SEEKERS.

The past season at Nome has been
delusive and the thousands who
went out in the spring hoping to
reap rich harvest are returning
filled with disappointment and much
poorer than they were. That coun.
try has proven to be practically a
failure IS a wealth-producing Sec
ton, yet notwithstanding past ex-
periences numbers doubtless will
next year spend their substance and
endure the hardships incident in the
hope of reaping a golden reward. If
those same people would use their
means here directed by an equal
energy expended in the fruitless
search for hidden wealth they
would reap substantial reward be-
sides benefitting the communities in
which they dwell. Going to Nome
is a waste of time, money and
strength.

KICK A DOG

Kick a dog and he bites you.
He bites you and you kick him.
The more you kick the more
he bites and the more he bites
the more you kick. Each
makes the other worse.
A thin body makes thin
blood. Thin blood makes a
thin body. Each makes the
other worse. If there is going
to be change the help must
come from outside.
SCOTS Emulsion is the right
help. 1t breaks up such a
combination. First it sets the
stomach right Then it en-
riches the blood. That
strengthens the body and it
begins to grow new flesh.
A strong body makes rich
blood and rich blood makes a
strong body. Each makes the
other better. This is4he way
Scott's Emulsion puts the thin
body on its feet. Now it can
get along by itself. No need

It will be q good time during the
