Some time ago my daughter caught a severe cold. She complained of pains in her chest and had a bad cough. gave her Chamberlains Cough Remedy ac- cording to directions and in two days she was we'll and able to go to school. l have used this remedy in my family for the past seven years and have never known it to fail," says James Prendergast, mer- chant. Annato Bay, Jamaica, West India Islands. The pains in the chest indicated an approaching attack of pneumonia, which in this instance was undoubtedly warded of by Chamberlains Cough Rem edy.

A Queer Proposal.

The Beverly tN. J.) Banner has the fol- lowing of how one race of people pop the question with pipe:
 Among the Tchuiian Tartars a curious mode of popping the question is report ed. The Tchuiian Coelebs in search of a wife, having filled a brand new pipe with fragrant tobacco. stealthily enters the dwelling of the fair one upon whom he has bestowed hls affections, deposits the pipe upon a conspicuous article of furni- ture and retires on tiptoes to some con- venient hiding place in the neighborhood, local etiquette requiring that he should execute this strategic movement appa- rently .undeteeted by the damsel of his choice or any member of her family.
 Presently he. returns without further affectation of secrecy and looks into the apartments in a casual sort of way. A single glance at the pipe, he left behind him enables him to learn the fate of his proposal.
 If it has been smoked he goes forth an accepted and exultant bridegroom: if not, the offer of his hand and heart has been so irrevocably rejected as not to be worth even a pipe of tobacco.

AN UNFAIR DEAL.

Evsr since the organization of political
rarties in Chehalis county 1t has been
customary for the county commissioners
m consult with the managing committee
of each party as to the appointment OF
.,act;on officers, the dominant party OF
the board taking two. and giving the
minority party one OF the officia IN
each precinct.
The object of this arrangement was
not only that all parties might be fairly
represented on the boards OF election
but it was presumed that the managing
committees we're acquainted with men
in each precinct who would be present
ON the morning OF election and attend to
the position.
Az two of the present board OF COM
missioners are candidates for election
it would seem that a small sense OF
decensy would have demanded that they
take no unfair advantage Of their oppo'
nents in their official capacity, yet this
is exactly what they have done. They
appointed the election boards in that
same arbitrary manner, for which Chair
man Davis has:be come famous, with the
evident intention OF depriving the demo
cratic party Misrepresentation thereon.
The appointments in Aberdeen are
fair sample of this bold attempt to con-
troll the election boards to further their
own election. In the four precincts OF
this city just two democratic names ap'
pear on the election1 boards, and one OF
them is safely in:the state OF Pennsyl'
vania, so that his. appearance will be
impossible. The HERALD believes large
majority OF the voters OF the county
desire fair play in the election, and that
this artful dodgelwillplav the boomerang
on Commissioners Smith and Davis, and
cost them q number OF votes.

SENATOR TURNER.
Addresses the People Of Grays Harpor Thurs
day night.

United States Senator George Turner
delivered an able address to a we'll filled
house in the Hoquiam opera house
Thursday evening. The senator is an
eloquent speaker, and probably the best
posted man on national affairs in the
state OF Washington, and his remarks
were listened to with marked attention,
and frequently applauded.
In discussing the political questions
Mr.. Turner argued that the policies OF the
democratic party were nearer right than
those OF any other party, embodying the
true principles OF free ard democratic
government. Good government. he said.
required simplicity and economy in its
administration. He described the con-
dition OF Washington territory prior to
its being admitted to statehood, and
contended that the personal interests
and amb tons OF the republican leaders
were responsible for the reform move
ment in 1895, when j. r. Rogers was
elected governor. Mr.. Rogers re-elec-
ton was further rebuke to the repub.
lican politicians.

As election day approaches our repub-
lican friends are driven to the extremity
of defending the weak candidates on
their ticket by that old, worn out cry.
"vote the republican ticket straight.
No claim is made that their candidates
are the best available, but the manipu-
lators, who worked the convention to
place the weak men on the ticket, rely
wholly upon he blind party prejudices
OF the voters to elect them. These tao
tics are somewhat out of date, and will
not win in Chehalis county in the year
1902. Speaking to the writer about this
attempt to fling the party whip, the
other day, a prominent republican
remarked that they could not
whip him into voting for Mr.. Benn, as
he did not consider that gentleman a
republican, as in 1895 he was fueionist,
and in 1900 openly worked to defeat the
republican nominee for governor.

COMPLAINS OF TUG SERVICE.
Capt. Johnson, Of the Schooner Henry Wilson
has . Kick.

NAPt. S0"nSons u hS SSnOOhsr USnTy wilson
has . Kick.
The schooner Henry Wilson, Capt.
johnson, arrived in port yesterday, and
the captain registers a kick at the tug
service of Grays Harbor. AS the captain
understands the rule of the port, the
tugs are forbidden to tow vessels in over
the bar during ebb tide, so that when
he arrived off the harbor last Friday, and,
finding the tide on the ebb, he stood off
to sea, and returned yesterday morning,
sailing over the bar at o'clock.
Now, the captain holds that the ting
should be on duty all during daylight on
the food tides, SO as to be ready to take
the vessels in on that tide. In this case,
the tug did not appear until O'Clock
1t was then ebb tide again, and the tug,
after making the Wilson furnish the
tow line, dropped her at the black buoy,
and went out to sea afrer three other
ships, leaving the Wilson for IL hours,
while towing over the bar at ebb tide.
When Captain johnson saw this he was
mad. He could have come in on Friday
but for the rule against crossing on that
tide, yet here it was done while he was
being delayed at the buoy, and was
towed up with the other yes.
sells, and ran aground several times on
the way up.

In voting on the question of Township
Organization, unless you fully under.
stand and favor the proposition, you
should vote no. Ii you fail to vote on it
at all, very small number OF votes may
carry the scheme, as majority OF the
votes east for or against it decides the
matter. Experience in the past teaches
that but few votes are cast upon consti.
tutional amendments, and the same is
likely TO be the case with this measure.
Vote on the proposition, either for or
