ing for the past eighteen months. 1t
was heavy pain across the small of my
back which was continuous during the
day, and even worse at night, keeping
me awake all hours and preventing me
from getting necessary rest. In the
morning / often arose as tired as when
| went to he'd and dragged myself out
with no appetite for breakfast to go to
work in an unfit condition The kidney
secretions were all out of order, dis
colored and full of sediment besides
being very scant. None of the various
remedies which / tried gave me any
relief until I got Doans Kidney Pills

tinued to use them and they have my
back strong again, all the ache has gone,

The Port Townsend and Seattle papers that
VIM Bishop of Jefferson county, who failed the joint
senatorial nomination, will run Independent candidate,
has occasoned deal of surprise in this county, where it
understood after the convention that he had accepted his
feat gracefully and would work loyalty for the election OF the
cessu candidate 1t to be regretted that Mr. Bishop has been
persuaded take such STEP which, whatever the outcome
be- is certain destroy very large the influence
which he has had and have continued have in the Re-
publican party The statement that he defeated in the
yenon any other than honorable has not the
slightest foundation in fact The Caam county delegates find
ing themselves unable pledges from this
county their candidate Mr. Farmer decided unanimously to
give their Mr. Blair in preference Mr. Bishop thus
surfing his nomination by majority of votes in
ton consisting of twenty-five delegates Four Mr.
Capp nominated by combination of Jefferson and Clalam
counties whose delegates did not then consider that this county
had any rights in the matter that they bound
respect The Caam people naturally felt that Jefferson hav
had the senaorsr eight most decidedly hog
gsh in endeavong again, especially it has two
representatives the lower house of the legislature Cam
with little if any, greater population and also the lieutenant
of the state who is the senate presiding officer The
people this county should feel grateful Clam for having
honoraby made possible for this county the
atorshp and they will be sadly lacking loyalty to their home
interests if they fail to give Mr. Blair big majority the polls
