Don't Like the Herald.

A few days ago the Duluth
Herald published under the head
of "Hotel Gossip" purported
interview with Hon. G. G. Nc
Carthy. of this place. When
asked regarding the matter, Mr..
Mccarthy was very indignant,
and gave his opinion Of the Her
aid in no uncertain language.
When asked about that part Of
the article which referred to
Judge Spooner, Mr.. Mccarthy
said: "All | have to say. is that
the whole pretended interview is
a pure fabrication on the part OF
the Evening Herald and its re-
porter. [ had no interview with
the Herald reporter on May 6
nor at any other time, and l never
either directly or indirectly or in
any way stated to that paper or
its reporter anything in that pre-
tended to be an interview. [ re-
gard that write up as about the
meanest and most contemplate
treatment i ever received from
any newspaper. Not only did
that sneaking, cowardly and
lying reporter manufacture what
1 he did about me, but he went out
of his way to say something mean
about the new Judge of this dis
! trict, Hon. M. A. SpoonerI do
not suppose that Mr.. Spooner
ever had anything to do with
that paper or any of its reporters
or anyone else connected with it,
and why they should desire to do
him an injury is what no one else
knows unless it is the paper
itself.
Il attended the last term of
court at Walker, which was held
by Mr.. Spooner, and I want to
say that he gave the very best of
satisfaction, and in my Judgment
he is now one of the best judges
in the state. Gov. Van SAINT
made a good appointment when
he appointed him; and / for one
will do all I can to secure his
nomination and election at the

The agonizing itching and burning

and crusting of the scalp, as in scaled

almost superhuman virtues to success
fully cope with them. That Cuticura
Soap, Ointment and Pills are such
stands proven beyond all doubt. NO
statement is made regarding them that
is not justified by the strongest evil
dence. The purity and sweetness, the
power to afford immediate relief, the
certainty of speedy and permanent
cure, the absolute safety and great
economy have made them the standard
skin cures, blood purifiers and humour
remedies of the civilized world.
Battle the affected parts with hot
water and Cuticura Soap, to cleanse the
surface of crusts and scales, and soften
the thickened cuticle. Dry, without
hard rubbing, and apply Cuticura ONT
ment freely, to allay itching, irritation
and Inflammation, and soothe and heal,
and, lastly, take the Cuticura Resolvent

This complete treatment, costing but
