The parade of the Patriotic Order
S
ons of America at Heading yester
day was a notable one both from a
numerical point of view and from
the event it commemorated. The
number of men in line was estimated
at over 9,000, which is a very large
number, and fittingly celebrated the
fiftieth anniversary of the institution
of the order.
The election of Gen. Gobin to the
position of National Commander of
the G. A. It. at Buffalo yesterday
after a hot contest is alike an honor
to the gentleman himself and the
great state ho represents. General
Gobin is highly esteemed by his
fellow-citizens as a man, a statesman
and a soldier and it is gratifying to
find their opinion endorsed by his
old comrades throughout the country.
The resumptions of work and the
advances of wages whioh are reported
from various parts of the country re
call the Hush times which began with
1870. In that year tho country en
tered on a period of the greatest in
dustrial activity which it had ever
known) but there is a probability
that a repetition of those conditions
Is coming to hand.
The aotion of the State Conven
tion at Harrisburg was a foregono
conclusion as there was no contest
for the nomination for Auditor
General and tlte opposition for State
Treasurer was not considered ser
iously at any time. The platform has
the right ring and is one that will
.command the support of the whole
party. It comas out sqHarely for a
bettor grade of civil service than the
jtham kind promulgated by Cleve
land to Hocure partisan advantage,
and deplores the aotion of tho
Sast Legislature in failing to
enact such laws as would tend to
the bettor government of state and
juunioipal affairs while giving it due
au-aise for the good legislation It en
acted, .and states what every close ob
server of potitieal events has already
discerned, that "dollar wheat" has
sounded the death knell of the "Free
Coinage" heresy. Altogether it is a
business like declaration of ths posi
tion assumed by the party in the
state and will meet the hearty ap
proval of the party at large.

Seattle, Aujt 27. The latest news
from the north still confirms nil pre
vious utatementB res&rdlni: the In
going TukoneiK, their eucceeR and fal'
urea In irettlns over the trails. At
SkaRuay there lsiWhd a glutted con
dition, no progress being made In go
ing over the summit by what Is known
as the White Pass, It having proved a
complete failure this yea according
to all reports. There ars now between
4,000 nnd 6,000 persons camped along
the trail between Salt Water and up
live or six miles. Tltey will remain
there, eating up their supplies, until
spring, or until they can make up their
minds either to go over to Dyea or
return to Junoa or the states, Many
have already sold out nd abandoned
the trip altogether, some gladly taking
10 per cent of the original cost of their
outfits and leaving that part of the
oountry.
Those who started via Dyca and tho
Chllkoot pass are getting along very
well, since the Indians are charging at
present only 36 cents per ound for
packing from salt water to the lakes.
Under present conditions It Is expected
that all who are now on that trail will
safely reach Klondike before winter
sets In.
Advices from the Interior under date
of July 24 are a repetition of what has
been said before as to the richness of
the diggings that have been worked up
to that date, also that some less val
uable finds have been made near Stew
art river. High prices and wages re
main as heretofore reported.
According to recent news from the
Yukon water has been scarce for hy
draulic purposes, but better arrange
ments will be provided for these oper
ations next year.
Flour is still selling in the interior
for $60 per sack of 50 pounds, and like
prices are asked for other staple arti
cles. Miners who were employed in mines
near Juneau, and who went to the
Yukon river, have had their places all
filled by recent arrivals, so that now
there is no special demand for labor
there, and It will be worse than folly
for a man to go to Juneau expecting to
get work durtne the winter months,
lie should be provided with mone..
enough to take care of himself until

The Little Conqueror Arrives And

Surprise, wonder and admiration follow in
the track of the little conqueror. People are

as that of Mrp. J. II. Butlor, a resident of
PitUton, reettlng to be every day occur
rences. Our representative callod on Mrs.
Butler at her place of residence, 130 Searle
streot. and she gave tho following brief ac
count of hor case, she says : "About a year
beo I began to have .ivero-pains in my back
in tho region of the kidneys. Sometimes the
pain was worse than at others, and with each
attack it grew more severe. Tho last attack
I had felt so I could not lift anything at all
that had any heft to it, and the hardest part
was to attempt to rise from any stoopiu
position. I can only describe the pain as a
continuous dull one, interspersed with sharp
piercing ones in the small of my back. If I
attemped to rise from a chair after continued
sitting I found it a uimcult matter. 1
managed to get along in this way with my
household duties, for I was determined not
to give up, and I felt many times as though I
positively must. I read of some of the cures
performed by Doan's Kidney Pills, and com
paring the symptoms described with mine I
couc'uded the pills would help me, and I pro
cured a box and began to take tliem regularly
according to directions. Within three days I
felt better and continued to Improve every
day, I must admit they have perfectly
eured me, and this much sooner than I could
have anticipated possible. I am perfectly
satisfied with the results, and glad to lie able
to inform other su Here re about Doan's Kidney
Pills, so that they may know what to use
who are iu their condition."

Ki Simla, Aug. 2r. The Afrldls attacked
LFort Tundl-Kotal on Tuesday. The
?arrlson h'ld its own until 10 o'clock
Wednesday morning, when, after very
trJharp fighting,- IK which the native
flojommader of the garrison was killed
cltvtille gallantly leading his men, the
erenemy gained an entrance. Ths fight
Mvas continued for two hours inside
n4he fortification by the Khyber Titles
h,n the tower at the angles of the fort,
gyVhich was strongly built of stone. The
jj IVfrldls lost heavily before they finally
teiaptured the place. They looted the
Ncort, capturing a quantity of supplies,
Coind then burned the structure. The
BP'(act that no news has been received
pjf tho fate of tho garrison leads to the
ellef hero that they succeeded in
baking terms before they surrendered.
Tho weekly caravan from Cabul,
which usually encamps under the walla
of Lundl-Kotal, sought places of ref
uge in a neighboring village. The news
is confirmed here that the Orakzais
have risen and cut telegraphic com
munication wHh all of the garrisons
and posts of Kurram valley.
The success of the Afrldis in closing
Khyber pass compels a reconsideration
of tho whole border question. Under
the existing agreement the Afrldls, in
return for liberal subsidies, undertook
to keep the pass open, to furnish men
for tho Khybtr rifles and to resist at
tacks without British aid. The de
mands upon the British military re
sources for fortifying Malatkaland,
Kohat, etc., prevented sending a force
to meet the sudden raid on the pass.
The punishment of this breach of
faith of the Afrldis is justified, while
It Is absolutely necessary for the future
safety of the frontier that they be dis
persed and disarmed. No Buch success
as they have temporarily gained has
ever before been recorded on the north

with the condition so Inviting to man
