The provisions in the new In
dian bill that no person shall be

tory who occupies or lie in posses

kind OF class legislation. Why
discriminate in favor OF the towns
mao and against country peoplrH
II the law will not apply to all
people alike it ought not to be
enacted. The fact is, there is no
law for the ejectment Of persons
anyway. 1t lie simply an arbitra-
~ and tyranical act on the part Of
government officials, unwarranted
by law. But the bill as now pro.
posed licenses squatters in the
towns and discriminates against
the people in the country. 1t lie a
little remarkable that a measure of
some dsgree Of fairness cannot be
proposed, Congress is turning
territory Legislation over to the
wrong crowd. Let the common
pe,sle have something to say in-
stead Of lea wing it all to the pro

if the lungs are not hard hit, the patient

every other night, rub the throat and top

cover with oil silk, let it remain an hour,
then remove. Eat good, plain, nourishing
food, live in the open air as much as pos
