A Question and a Suggestion.

: Editor Leader: Can you fur
nish any information as to what
has become of the great sidewalk
movement that was so much talk
ed of during the last municipal
campaign. A few individuals
who we're not office seekers near
the corporate limits placed nice
walks around their property, but
nearer the business center the
walks would be in worse condi-
tion than ever, we're it not for the
good weather. In accordance
with the ordinances, passed by the
City Council, there were two or
three magnificent bluffs made by
blockading the streets with few
loads of sand and gravel, but this
has disappeared and there are no
indications whatever now. If the
Prog ressive Union would spend
little more of their time in trying
to have the city ordinances en-
forced, and not quite so much in
making talk for the newspapers,
immigration would drift this way
of its own accord,
These are the views of at least
TWO TAX PAYERS.

THE JACKSON LUMBER COMPANY.
A Compliment to Retiring President ].
B. NaIty.

The Jackson Lumber Company
held it's annual meeting last night,
and the report submitted to the
stockholders was a most satisfac-
tory one. 1t was shown that a
fine business had been done the
past year, and handsome dlvi-
dend was declared. For the en-
suing year Jake Ehrman was
chosen as president, L. II. Fryant
as vice president, and w. S. Mize
as secretary and treasurer.
After the BUSINESS of the eve
ming had been concluded, Mr..
Jake Ehrman, on behalf of the
stockholders, presented the retir-
ing president, Mr.. ]. B. Nalty,
with a handsome Elk's charm pin.
Mr.. Nalty had not expected any
such demonstration of apprecia-
ton, and was taken completely by
surprise, but accepted the pin,
and in very neat little speech re-
turned thanks to his associates for
the token of their confidence pre-
sented him. He expressed regret
at having to sever his relations as
president of the company, but
other interests demanded it, and
he hoped that their new president
would even prove more satisfacto-
ry and better equipped for the
position than he had.

HoME-MADE CATAKkH CURE.

Any one can mix right at home the
best remedy of it's kind known. The
name "Cyclone" is given to the follow
ing prescription, it is supposed, be-
cause of its promptness in driving from
the blood and system every vestige of
catarrhal poison, relieving this foul and
dread disease, no matter where located.
To prepare the mixture: Get from any
good pharmacy one-half ounce Fluid
Extract Dandelion, one ounce Com
pound Kargon and three ounces Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparilla. Shake well
and nse in teaspoonful doses after each
meal and at bedtime.
This is a harmless, inexpensive mix
ture, which has peculiar action upon
the eliminative tissues of the kidneys,
assisting them to filter and strain from
the blood and system all catarrhal
poisons, which. if not eradicated, are
absorbed by the mucous membrane,
and an open sore or catarrh is the re-
suit.
Prepare some and try it, as it is the
prescription of an eminent catarrh spe-
cialist Of national reputation. l2)

TO ENJOY "A GOOD DINNER.
How to Avoid Distress and Indigestion
After Eating.

Let us tell you how you. can en-
Joy a good dinner, so that the
heartiest meal will set we'll on
your stomach and cause no un-
pleasant and disagreeable after
effects.
We will show you how to re-
gain the appetite of your child
hood and the enjoyment of food,
SO that it will taste as we'll as
when mother cooked the dinner.
There is no hard work necessa-
ry to do this; no need of a rigid
and self-denylng diet list; no call
for nasty and disagreeable medi-
cines. Simply take a Mi-o-na
stomach tablet before each meal
and before going to bed, and it
will so strengthen the stomach that
before long a hearty meal will
give you qualification and COM
fort, without the least fear of dis
tress and suffering.
Inc strongest PROOF we can
offer of our faith in this advice is
the fact that the Price Drug Com
pany give an absolute, unqualified
guarantee (applying to two so
cent boxes of Ml-o na), that your
money will be refunded unless
Mi-o-na cures. A guarantee like
this gives you confidence in Mi-o-
ma. They take the whole risk,
aud the remedy will not cost you
a penny unless it cures.
Mi o-na is not'a mere digestive,
giving only temporary relief, but
a specific for all diseases of the
stomach, strengthening the.diges-
tive organs and making perma-
nent cure.

WAS A REAL HOBO CHICKEN

SEATTLE, Wash, Aug .12.-When
the Oriental limited was about to leave
st. Paul on the Great Northern two
days ago, a crate, in which a ship
ment of chickens was to be made to
the Coast, broke and the chickens es-
capped in the yards. Trainmen cap
tured all but one of the biddies. Last
night when the Great Northern train
reached Leavenworth the yardmaster
searching for tramps, found the miss
ing hen riding on a breakbeam where
it had lodged in escape from the rail-
road men. A score of passengers who
had witnessed the excitement at ST.
Paul identified the hen as the missing
chicken, and it was presented to
Brakeman H. C. Burke, who brought
it to Seattle today. The ride across
half the continent on a brakebeam is
unprecedented, insofar as local rail-
road men know.

A Bio Conoress Assured.

The biggest national convention OF
the wear will be the Fifteenth National
Irrigation congress that cOnvenes in
Sacramento. It is confidently antici-
pated that the attendance of delegates
will reach three thousand. This is
more than double the number present
at any previous meeting of the body.
The congress will be also the most
representative in the history of the or
ganization. The delegates include
the vice-president of the United
States, members of the presidents
cabinet, senators and representatives
in the federal congress, from nearly
every state ir. the union. In addition
to these representatives of the nation
al government, governors of states,
legislators, state officials and NUM-
cipal officers from every important
center in the United States are among
the members of the same body. There
is not an organization Of national
prominence in the country that will be
unrepresented in this great convention.
Educa tional, professional and COM
mercial associations and institutions
will send delegates. No unofficial
national convention in the United
scope of its purpose and the dis
tinguished personnel of it's member
ship.
