THE DoUKHoBoBs COME
ORIGINALLY FROM GERMANY

Rock Island, Nov. Editor Argus:
The Doukhobors, immigrants from
Russia who settled in Mani
toba some twenty years ago,
and portion of whom are attract
ing so much attention by their fanati-
cism in starting out near the APP
proach of winter with their leader,
Zibroff to find the Messiah, came or
iginally from Germany. Their re-
ligious sect was opposed to war, and
were in many respects much like the
Quakers. They were much perse-
cuted in Germany in the time of Peter
the Great of Russia That monarch
heard of them and learning that they
were quiet and orderly people, asked
them to settle in this country, guar
anteeing to them that they should
not be called upon to do military
duty.
From that time until quite recently
this promise was kept. Nicholas L..
father of the present car, attempted
to compel them to enlist in the army
and do military duty. This they re-
fused to do. They sent an agent out
to Manitoba to see the country. The
about twenty years ago they com
menced their hegira from cold. faith
breaking Russia to the land of light
and liberty.
In 1850, when on my way to Duluth
from st. Paul, at the junction of the
st. Paul and Northern Pacific railways
| met the first of these people. They
filed twelve cars with men, women
and children. | went through the
cars to see them. They were strong
and rugged, wore decent clothes and
looked happy-a very desirable class
of immigrants for either Canada or
the United States. l am surprised
at the fanaticism of the portion that
have gone off on the chase after a
mythical savior. Yet | do not know
that it is at all surprising. During
my life / have seen three periods set
for the end of the world and second
appearance of the Savior. Yet the old
world still survives.

A BREATHING SPELL

If the Consumptive could
only keep from getting worse
it would be some encourage
ment.
SCOTS Emulsion at least
gives tired nature a breathing
spell from the exhausting con-
fict with disease.
Rich nourishment, strength
to repair bodily waste, new life
for the lung, these are what
SCOTS Emulsion brings.
Often it enables nature to
gather force enough to throw
off the disease altogether.
SCOTS Emulsion is valuable
at the beginning. Then is
when cure is most certain.
But in any stage of the disease
SCOTS Emulsion counteracts
the work of destruction and
reinfOrceS nature.

A MILD CASE

OF Contagious Blood Poison never exis-
ted. 1t is always bad, though sometimes
no external symptoms of the disease ap-
pear for long time.
Because the disease is slow IN devel-
oping does not indicate that the case is
a mild one, for the poisonous virus at
work in the blood and system may be
spending its force upon some internal
vital organ while you are looking for ex-
ternal signs. Contagious Blood Poison
does not affect all alike. In most cases
the first little sore is quickly followed by
painful swel1ings in the groins, red
eruption upon the body, sores or ulcers
in the mouth and throat, unsightly copper
co1ored blotches, loss of hair and eye
brows and other symptoms of this miser-
able disease. When the poison is thus
fighting its way to the surface, exposing
the disease in all its hideousness, we call
it bad case; but Contagious Blood Poi
son, whether working internally or exter-
nally, is a dangerous, treacherous disease.
S. S. S. is the only remedy that cures
Contagious Blood Poison thoroughly and
permanently. 1t is an antidote for the
deadly virus that produces the awful
eruptions, sores and ulcers, and destroys
the bones. Mercury and Potash dry up
the skin eruptions, but in so doing drive
the poison further into the system, where
it slumbers for time, but comes back
again with redoubled fury.
S. S. S. is vegetable remedy that has
been used successfully for years in treat
ing this vile disease and
SIS Sc !:
or muscular and bone
pains, your blood is tainted and the disease
is liable to break out again at any time.
A course of S. S. S. will remove every
trace of poison and at the same time
build up your general health.

NO COMMISSION
TO COD|FY LAWS
Alleged ''sIate" Kills its Pros
poets in the
House.

There will be no commission appointed
by the Legislature to codify the statutes
in conformity with the provisions of the
new Constitution. At least there will be
sore on the lines indicated in the bill pre-.
sented by Mr.. Davis. Of Petersburg, in
tile House on yesterday, for 1t mas stirred
up nearly all the members whose names
do not appear on the alleged Slate
Colonel Newhouse, Mr.. FolkeS and a
great many other members of the House
were displaying great activity against the
rrpcsition last night. and Mr.. Whitehead
and others declared it would never pass
the House. The plan offered by bIr.Da-
Wis provides for the appointment Of four
teen members from the House and seven
from the Senate. who may sit IN vacation
and report to the full session of the Leg
isaIure.
It is being charged that a Slate has
been made up in the House containing
The names of fourteen members, and those
who are left off are declaring that they
will never permit the measure to pass
The upshot of it will be that there will
be no commission, unless it should be a
much smaller one. There is talk OF taking
some men from outside the Legislature.
and the names of Hon. r. T. Barton, of
Winchester. and Judge "A. A. Phlegar have
been mentioned. The whole matter has
been deferred by the House until next
Tuesday, when it will undoubtedly cause
a hot fight. Meanwhile the Senate will
probably take no action.
