To the Citizens

A word in regard to paying your
road poll tax in cash.
1t is the desire OF the Council, II
supported by the citizens, to put the
approaches to town and the streets
thereof in good shape, and to do
this the town must have cash. The
Council therefore wants the road
tax, when possible, paid in cash, so
that it will have all the funds pos
sible for the work in view.
We will go furthur and state what
our plans are. There are not only
the main streets OF our town, but
the roads leading to Cameron, to
Juliaetta, to American ridge, aud
we very much want to grade these,
roll them solid. and properly crown
and ditch them. Now this will be
a little more expensive than throw
ing dirt into the holes, and scraping
OFF rock, but the results will be 80
beneficial to the farmer, the town
and the merchants, that we believe
our people will be more than recon-
pensed, and therefore we ask that
each and every citizen step up and
pay his road tax to the Village clerk
in cash.

that shell singing in the air over our

those phrases sometimes employed In

then the shout that went up from the

rout for some miles, until one Confed-
crate General gathered enough of his
division together to make a stand and
cover the rest of the army.
In the battle Sheridan showed not
only his ability to make all parts of his
army move in unison and strike stimuli
taneGuSly but he also showed talent
which few if any other Generals in the
army possessed; that is. the employ
ment of all three arms of the service

Gen. Grant. for example, placed prob

alone, and did not give sufficient i'm
portance to cavalry and artillery. Neith-
er horsemen nor field guns are very
prominent in any of his battles 1t was
the same with the tactics of Sherman

How to Get Rid
of Catarrh
A Simple, Safe, Reliable Way, and it
Costs Nothing to Try.

Those who suffer from catarrh know
is miseries. There is no need of this
suffering. You can get rid of it by a
simple, safe, inexpensive home treat
ment discovered by DR. Blosser, who.
for over thirty-five years, has been
treating catarrh successfully.
His treatment is unlike any other.
1t is not a spray, dOuche, salve, cream
or inhaler, but is a more direct and
thorough treatment than any of these.
1t cleans out the head, nose, throat and
lungs so that you can again breathe
freely and sleep without that stopped
up feeling that all catarrh sufferers
have. 1t heals the diseased mucous
membranes and arrests the foul dis
charge, so that you will not be con-
Stantly blowing your nose and splitting,
and at the same time it does not poison
the system and ruin the stomach, as
internal medicines do.
If you want to test this treatment
without cost, send your address to Dr.
]. w. Blosser, 800 Walton street. At
lanta, Ga, and he will send you by re-
turn mail enough of the medicine to
satisfy you that it Is all he claims for it
rs remedy for catarrh, catarrhal head
aches, catarrhal deafness, asthma bron-
chitis, colds and all catarrhal complica-
tons. He will also send you free an

feat of the army which had threatened
Washington, and which for weeks had
been very present menace to the loyal
soil. the peoples spirits went up with
leap. The darkest day of the war
had been when Early's army was in
front of Fort Stevens. Then the green

tory at the Ope1uon the value of the
greenback dollar leapcd up to 4S cents.

Sherman and Meade all sent warmly
congratulatory dispatches TO Gen. Sher-
