Tendency of the Times.

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventive measures. The
best thought of the world is being
given to the subject. 1t is easier and
better to prevent than to cure. 1t has
been fully demonstrated that pneu-
monia, one OF the most dangerous
diseases that medical men have to
contend with, can be prevented by
the use OF Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. Pneumonia always results
from a cold or from an attack OF in
fuenza grip, and it has been OBJ
served that this remedy counteracts
any tendency of these diseases to-
ward pneumonia. This has been
fully proven in many thousands of
cases in which this remedy has been
used during the great prevalence of
colds and grip in recent years, and
can be relied upon with implicit con-
fidence. Pneumonia often results
from a slight cold when no danger is
unprecedented until it is suddenly dis
covered that there is fever and diff
Guilty in breathing and pains in the
chest, then it is announced that the
patient has pneumonia. Be on the
safe side and take Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy as soon as the cold is
contracted. 1t always cures. For

x. J. LAWS,
superintendent.

With local applications, as they can
not reach the seat OF the disease.
Catarrh is blood or constitutional
disease, and in order to cure it you
must take internal remedies. Halls
Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
and acts directly on the blood and
mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh
Cure is not a quack medicine. 1t was
prescribed by one OF the best phi y sic
ians in this country for years, and is
a regular prescription. 1t is com
posed of the best tonics known, com
hined with the best blood purifiers,
acting directly on the mucous sur
faces. The perfect combination of
the two ingredients is what produces
such wonderful results in curing

Another Old Resident Passes Away.

A. ]. Barrett, one Of the Oldest
ty, passed away Thursday morning
of this week about 9 o'clock. Mr..
Barrett had not been in good health
for some years past, and for couple
of weeks before his demise was con-
fined to his home altogether. A. J.
Barrett was native of Maine, aged
So years. He came to California in
1850, and followed mining and other
pursuits in different parts of that
State until 1861, in which year he
came to Nevada and located in Eagle
Valley, south of Carson. There he
followed ranching until 1866, when
he went to Dayton and engaged in
truck farming on the Carson River.
In 1879 he sold out his holdings there
and came to Mason Valley, where he
has resided up to the time of his
death. Mr.. Barrett was model
ranchcr, and good citizen. He took
pride in having large variety of
garden vegetables, and was always
experimenting with new varieties of
farm produce. He established nice
home on his ranch, some five miles
south of Ycrington, and conducted
things much on the old New Eng
land style. To mourn his loss he
lea YES widow, who is now quite
i'll, two sons, George and Harry, both
residents Of this valley, and TWO
daughters, Mrs. Mary Mallctt, of
Oregon, and Mrs. Lettie Gregg, of
Anderson, Cal. The funeral of de-
ceased will take place tomorrow at
10 a. m. from the Yerington M. <.
Church, and friends and acquaint-
ances are invited to attend to pay
their last respects to one of Mason
Valleys most substantial friends.
The relatives of deceased have the
sympathy of all in their hour of sor-
row.

A Boundary Scheme.

The Canadian legislator who proposes
that the Dominion buy the state of Maine
In order 70 straighten out the boundary
and give the railroads a direct outlet to
the ocean is doubtless given to dreams of
this sort. The fact Is that for many years
a large number of citizens of the United
States have believed 1t to be the duty Of
this government to make every possible
effort to purchase the lands lying south Of
the st. Lawrence river and gulf and annex
them to this republic. 1t has been felt that
the natural boundary afforded by the Great
Lakes and their outlet to the ocean should
be utilized throughout The western bound

minion is necessarily artificial. but, having
been determined after much dispute and
some danger of bloodshed. 1t now sufices

ascertained with reference to the parallels
of latitude. The northeastern boundary is
in part artificial and in part natural, and
the combination. although in general terms
satisfactory. has given rise to controversies
which have not yet been fully settled. Some
of the distance the line Is laid down be-
tween natural marks which are not easily
located.
This Canadian legislator is at once modest
and greedy In his proposition. He might

Inadequate Penalties.

Such penalties as those imposed today in

The Ohio Campaign.

Mr.. Bryan is not in pout. He is going
to Ohio to help out. He rarely neglects an
opportunity to spout. He will do what he
can toward putting the enemy to rout. His
hopes are high and his heart is stout. He
is for Tom Johnson and the whole layout.
Why should the nomination of Mr.. Clark
for United States senator be offensive to
Mr.. Bryan? Has not the latter repeatedly
declared the terms upon which the demo-
Gratis who voted against him for President
would be received back into the fold? And
has not Mr.. Clark virtually met those
terms? Is he not standing on the platform
which indorses the Kansas City platform,
and was he not Endorsed for senator by a
convention which formally invited Mr.
Bryan into the state to speak for the demo-
cratic nominees, himself included? What
ever votes he receives for senator will come
from men who have twice voted for Mr.
Bryan for President. If that does not
square Mr.. Clark's account Mr. Bryan
must be very unreasonable man.
AS matters look now, democratic defeat
in Ohio this year seems reasonably certain
Mr.. johnson rode down the opposition at
columbus so ruthleSSly that the bitterness
aroused is bound to tell at the polls The
zimmerman people will continue a little
sore as against all efforts to induce them
to forget their woes. And then there are
the Mclean people, tolerably numerous and
well drilled, who are hardly to be expected
to work themselves up into frenzy in Mr.
Johnsons behalf. 1t is difficult to mag
inc therefore where Mr. johnson expects to
get the votes necessary to put him In
charge at Columbus. 1t looks little like
Herrick in a walk
Still the campaign should be interesting.
Mr.. Johnson is man of ideas, and is bold
In expressing them. Being something of a
national figure this year. he will probably
disport himself on the stump with more
than his usual frankness and aggressive
ness. And then we ought to hear from
Mr.. Bryan in a way having a bearing on
next year. Maybe he will address himself
with renewed vigOr to Mr.. Clevelands rec
ord, and give few additional reasons why
the nomination of Mr. Olney, Judge Parker
or Mr.. German would fail to meet the
requirements of the democratic situation
as respects the presidency. And then Mr..
Clark. What has he to tell the country?
