structed TO ask for bids with view OF
seeing II the work could not be done
more chcaply by contract.
The principal matter attended TO at
the afternoon session was the disposal
ol the suits brought against the county
by five timberland syndicates for the
purpose OF having the assessment Of
their property on the 1908 roll set aside.
1ne taxes due the county by the
syndicate was equal to sll.sS5.I7, but
when the suit was commenced they de.
posted with the clerk of the circuit
court the sum Of s7l3l.3o as their ten.
der in full of all charges against the
property.
For some reason they decided not TO
press the suit and today their represen'
tatiye, Attorney Lithicum. OF Portland,
appeared before the court and offered
to compromise the case by paying the
balance due the county, si,7ji3S, with
500 additional for interest.
After considerable discussion the
members OF the court decided that as
the suits were pending in the circuit
court the usual penalties cannot ben
forced, and il is question whether in
terest can be collected, so they accept.
ed the compromise offer The plaintiffs
then agreed to dismiss the suit and paid
the sheriff the balance outstanding
This action on the part of the tim.
bcrmen is one of unusual Importance
TO the residents of this county. as by
their agreement to drop the case they
virtually acknowledged the methods
by five timber land syndicates for the
assessment of timber lands to he Just,
in spite Of the increased valuation of the
property.

pointment of the fire rangers who have
been appointed from time to time and
to probate the will of one
Goulart, deceased, the remainder of the
afternoon session was given to the dis.
cussion of road matters.

WHAT c. APOSTLE HAS TO SAY.
MEMORIES OF THE PAST

In 1882 or 1888, an epidemic of yell
low fever was declared in Pensacola
with a frightful result.
From 100 10 $50 cases of yellow
fever per day, and fifty TO sixty
deaths. Such was the frightful catas-
trophe of humanity.
DR.. Bosso was living in Mobile
and he come To Pensacola like a
brave general, fearing not death.
The. result was that in a week he
stamped out the yellow fever in Pen
sRcola with his famous medicine
the same remedy we have today, and
in the name OF common sense such a
triie thing of sc cents, which it re-
required to stop the fever in Pensa-
cola. Let us everybody get a bottle
OF this famous medicine and clean
their systems. In this hot month of
August. 1t is proper and just for us
TO clean our system and we will not
lnOw any fever whatever. This
famous remedy is within tde reach
Of the rich and of the poor. and there
VIII be no cause Of saying the medi-
cine is too costly to get it.
The authorities work hard, and the
doctors work hard, for the purpose of
having Pensacola clean Of any kind
Of fever. Let us help the doctors
and the authorities and in order to do
rhis we have to get Bosses Blessing
TO Mankind. 1t is only sec, and l am
satisfied chat there is not n lady or
gentleman in Pensacola which is not
willing to spend SOC in order to keep
OFT the fever in Pensacola.
Nick's Restaurant is the depot IF
This famous medicine. Everybody
should get a bottle of it.

PEARY STARTED
FOR THE NORTH
TOO LATE
Delay in DiSpatChing Steamer May
Illustrate Plans for This
Summer.

P. T. McGrath, of St. Johns, n. F.,
who is an authority on Northern voy-
ages, writes to the Chicago News as
follows: The delay in dispatching
Peary's steamer Roosevelt threatens
to interfere seriously with his plans
for getting to the far North this sum-
mer. His original intention was to
have her leave New York on July
and get away from the Newfoundland
coast about a week later, declaring
himself in several interviews that any
detention after July 10 would serious
IL handicap him in his endeavor to
attain an extreme nOrthing before the
polar channels freeze up, so that he
might, if possible, get into the open
polar sea and establish himself there
before the brief summer months end.
However, he only left Sydney, n. S..
On July %, where he had been coaling,
and has still TO call at some port on
the NewfOundlanG coast to put ashore
his last letters and take his final de-
rarture for the North. He is, there
fore, about three weeks behind the
date which he fixed as his latest, and,
although his ship is much faster than
previous exploring boats, it must be
evident that he has no time TO spare
if he is 10 reach any far-away point
within the frozen zone this year. His
hope was that he could get as far up
as the POlaris and Thetis went in 1871
and 1882, which ships got right into
the Polar sea in the ore season, being
favored by brief spell of open water,
and this would be a great advantage
to him, as he would have his advanc-
ed base within about 500 miles of the
pole itself. or 300 miles nearer than
he could otherwise reach. He would,
therefore, be able to make his dash
across the paleocrystic ice to the pole
next spring and have a second year in
which to repeat the effort if he failed
the first time.
But if he is unable to reach a very
noTtherly point now he may be DOOM
ed to a whole year. of inaction and
perhaps to the Illustration of his best
hopes. He had hard luck this spring
In that he lacked the money to equip
his vessel after he, had her built, ana
the time lost in this way il is difficult
for him to make up now. The eXplor-
er who would secure the best oppoF-
