Classes in stomach Poison the Blood.

Classes i'm Stomach Poison the Blood.
Gas forms in your stomach because
the food you eat ferments and turns
sour.
Allow this fermentation to go on
and the poison gets into the blood.
MI-O-NA stomach tablets stop the
fermentation almost instantly, turn
the poisonous gases into liquid, and
eliminate the poison mostly through
the Kidneys.
If you have any stomach trouble
such as gas, sourness, heaviness,
fiatulency, or shortness of breath,
MI-O-NA will give gratifying relief
in five minutes.

ED DARLING
 STRIKES OIL
IMPROVEMENT MADE IN ORE CON PUTS THOUSANDS IN
 HIS POCKET.

When a copy of the Klamath North west of August 27. arrived on the I.eeIanaw the other day. Ed Darling found that he IS a wealthier man by many thousands of dollars. His new money was made for him by an i'm proyement effected by the Southern Pacinc Railway Company which has succ-cded in saving from flood lands of which NIT. Darling holds d con siderable share.
 These lands are about 35.0Oo acres in extent. They are situated al Low e CT Klamath lake and stood under water part of the time. This water came from Klamath river. The bed of the river being too small to carry away all the water during hooda some of the water was forced through d channel and over the lands in ques ton. Recently the Southern Pacihc Company decided to block this chan mel and the work was done with all the secrecy and dispatch possible Previous to the beginning of the work the company carefully spread the rumor that the closing of the
 channel was really not desired by them, believing precautions such us these to be necessary to prevent the officious interference of meddlers. The result of the work Is the saving of the 35,O0O acres. Of these MT. Dari- ing holds 5000 acres. and as the Northwest says that the value of the lands has jumped from $io to 3l5 an acre to 1875 and 3i50 an acre 1t shows that Nome's well known merchant has struck something better than most gold mines.

PLAN DIVORCE
 FOR NATIVES

The present difficulty experienc- cd by natives in securing di- yorces Is responsible for the rele ase of the native. Daniel Maker. who was recently sentenced to jail here on the charge of adultery. The iec- ture of Explorer Steffanson on the subject of the natives brought the question to a point.
 The latest to make a move in the matter is Commissioner Southwarc who asked Dr. Marsh to bring the question of native divorce before tn, authorities here. His suggestion is that United States commissioners oe made referees in bankruptcy in ma tive cases. As matters now stand native couples. it is said. when the marriage becomes intolerable are un- able to come to Nome and go through the requirements for divorce. This they say. leads to adultery. and such was the excuse that brought about the release of Maker.

The following printed in the Skag way Alaskan from pr. l. II. Moore shows that the doctor believed a job had been put up on Wickersham In the camp where he now lives:
 "Dr. I. II. Moore. formerly physi- clan for the White Pass. in Skagway but now practicing in Ruby. where he is also interested in mining. has written an interesting letter to the publisher of the Daily Alaskan from which we reprint the following news. which will be of interest to our read CTS:
 We had wickersham cinch in this district, but the commissioner failed to appoint the judges as prescribed by law. Whether this was a scheme by the Shackieford gang we do not know we notified the commissioner in due time but he failed Co keep his prom ise. It looks like a scheme to count Wickersham out"
