A Remarkable Record.

Chamberlain's cough remedy has
a remarkable record, 1t has been
in use for over thirty years during
which time many millions bottles
have been sold and used. It has
long been the standard and main
reliance in the treatment of Group
in thousands of homes yet during
all this time no case has ever been
reported to the manufacture in
which it failed to effect a cure.
When given as soon as the child
becomes hoarse or even as soon as
the croupy cough appears. it will
prevent the attack. It is pleasant
to take and many children like it.
1t contains no opium or other
harmful substance and may be CIV
en- as confidently to a baby as to an
adult. For sale by Graham &

Washington, Sept. 1.-THE
names Of the persons indicted Tues
day by the grand jury were given
nut this afternoon by District At
torney Beach,. One each is against
Beavers, Mschen and against Jas.
w. Erwin for conspiracy to de-
fraud; two indictments are against
Isaac Mcclellan and George Hun
tington Of New York aud Machen
for conspiracy to commit bribery;
tWoindictments are against Eugene
Shobel and Machen for conspiracy
TO defraud andlconspiracy to COM
NIT bribery; also, an indictment
against Machen for accepting bribes.
The Indictment against Machen,
Beavers and Erwin alleges in sub
stance that the Postal Device i'm
provement Company of San Fran
cisco, formerly the Montague Indi-
Gator & Letter Box Company, by
resolution set aside LOCO shares of
stock to These men to forward the
interests of the company. Daniel
Richardson, accompanied by Er-
win, came to Washington. Erwin
was then postoffiee inspector and
the. company was composed entirely
of postal employees 10 the Far West.
Erwin introduced Richardson to
all prominent postofice officials.
Heath, Beavers and Machen exam
ined the device and an order was
issued to equip over 1000 boxes.
B .svers and Machen then suggest
ed.achange in the name of the com
pany, because the owners of the
blocks of stock were names of post
al officials. The company then sys-
tematieally relieved itself of obliga-
'tions in the way of paying freight,
Grating, printing cards and painting
for devices furnished. Thousands
ofsshares of stock went into the
hands Of different postal officials.
The president of the company then
secured an increased pay for boxes
and dividends were afterward paid
on all stock.
Indictments altogether show
where Machen received at various
times sums aggregating $4,000
from various schemes of graft in
which he was interested.
Some schemes were even boldel
than the Montague plan. In one
case be authorized the payment Of
$1.25 for a device for boxes when
really worth only Is cents.
Astoria, Sept. 12.-The Ham
mond log raft, which went ashore
on the jetty sands short distance
below Fort Stevens on Friday after
noon, was taken off this morning
and is anchored near there with the
steamer Francis FL. Leggett stand
ing by.
No attempt was made to take the
raft to sea today because of the
rough bar, and it was necessary for
the steamer to secure a new hawser
the former one having been entang-
led in the steamers propellers and
cut. A steel-wire hawser was not
available, SO plow-steel cable,
such as is used in logging camps,
was procured.
From the present weather indi-
cations the raft will not be able to
start for San Francisco for several
days. The raft is 730 feet long and
contains piling equal to 5000, 900
feet of lumber. The steamer which
is to tow her has on board a cargo
of over 100000 feet of lumber.
