ITCHING CURED
With Cuticura Remedies in
Three Days After Six
Months of Suffering.

IL suffered fully six months. The
trouble began on my arms In little
red pimples and it was not long before
1t was all over my body, limbs, face,
and hands. 1t was so bad that could
not rest night or day and during the
six months, did not get good nights
sleep. / doctored for three or four
months and spent at least twenty dol
lars trying to find a cure but none could
be found. Then / saw the Cuticura
Remedies advertised, and the next day
purchased some for seventy-five cents
at the druggists. l used them and /
was relieved Of the itching in three days.
and have never had sign Of any skin
disease since. The Cuticura Remedies
are the only remedies to use for skin
diseases, they have cured me and they
will cure Others in the same way. j. w.

Portland Union stockyards, Oct. 5.
While there is a difference OF opin-
ion regarding whether the cattle mar
ket will do better In the near future
az regards prices, the trade is inclin-
ed to the opinion that good fat steers
will find a very liberal demand.
'The big run In the cattle market Is
about over" says S. p. Gould, OF Ben
son & Gould, this morning. From
this time forth we can expect better
class of stock and arrivals will not
be so heavy. Those who were forced
to ship their cattle on a glutted mar
ket, have already done so and within
short time we will likely be getting
nothing but the finished stuff. There
Is not the slightest difficulty in SELL
ing all the good stuff arriving and
when the run Of cattle becomes small
Ter buyers will likely pay more"
Fat sheep are in demand and 1t is
quite probable that there will be some
improvement in this line soon. Ar
rivals have been decreasing Of late
and even now select wethers are cas-
lily disposed Of at 3kc, while ordinary
stuff hangs around 3hc. The lambs
arriving from the valley are too big
and for this reason no improvement
I'm that line Is at present anticipated.
Good Hogs Holding All Right.
while there is a much softer tone
in ordinary hogs, good quality is
finding a sale. The course Of the To-
cal hog market for the near future
Is hard TO predict This is the time
OF the year when hogs usually sell
lower here, but there is a very good
tone in the east and this may hold
any possible decline mere in check"
Lee NJ. Lacy Of Hunt & Lacy. says
regarding the livestock situation:
Good hogs are still finding a de-
mand around 81. but poor stuff is
somewhat neglected at the lower
range.
Prime. fat and heavy steers are
moving off freely when reported in
the yards and II the stuff is first
class there is no trouble in getting
A.25. II takes something select,
however. Personally, I do not be-
lieve the cattle market will advance
for a while"

The Metropolis few days ago men,
toned the fact that Gus Morton, of
Levy County. has made serious charges
against j. n. c. Stockton, and was
making his attacks in various speeches.
The Metropolis did not publish these
charges, but in justice to all it should
he said that Mr.. Stockton has proven
very clearly the unjustness of the
charges. 1t is hoped that unfounded
sensational charges in the campaign
from all sides will be eliminated, and
that the campaign will be confined to
issues. The charges against Stock

four years ago, and yet Mr.. Morton, it
has been proven, was strongly sup

Editor Of the Times Union--My at

treated Gus Morton or any person or

am the J.. E. Bryan mentioned by
Morton; that under the agreement
with him, he was to receive nothing
from the Levy County Phosphate Co.
until the profits had paid back all
moneys invested and all debts, and
that there never were any profits.
AS mater of fact, the company,
Ike most phosphate companied with
small capital, lost money, and when
we were forced to sell the property it
Gid not bring enough to pay its debts.
/ am surprised to see Mr.. Morton's
statements, as he was in my office
since you have been a Acandidate for
governor, and he was then as enthus-
iastic supporter of yours, and this was
about four years after the sale of the
Levy County Phosphate Company's
property to the Dutton Phosphate
Company.
About month ago Morton gave me
TO understand that he was much dis
satisfied with you because Morton
thought you were not supporting him
for state senator from Levy County,
and wanted another man to run
against him.
you had sold the. Levy County Phos-
rhate Companys property for $4,000,
at which statement / merely laughed,
knowing it was not true. III
If Morton received $1,000 out of that
&C mpany he received just $1,000 more
than did, and more than he was en-
titled to. Yours truly, ~

you. My father, having implicit con-

When the company was forced out
Of business and had to sell \its, assets
to pay it's debts, we assumed that the
stockholders would get nothing. But
you came forward and paid back the
$4,000, which my father had paid in.

that money you had returned to us
