HAVE YOU ANY OF THESE of a Very Common Trouble?, There is no disease so common in the United States as catarrh because it ap- pears in so many forms and attacks so many different organs. It is & common mistake to suppose that catarrh is confined to the nose and throat. AT mucous mem- accompanied by Catarr or intestines is common as nasal catarrh and muck more serious, although it is true t stomach catarrh and catarrh of oth- i ial organs is the result of neg- lected nasal catarrh. A new remedy has recently appeared which so far as tested scems to be re- markably effective in promptly curing ca- tarrh, wherever located. The preparation is sold by druggists generally under name of Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets, and in addi- tion to being very palatablé and conveni- ent, possesses extraordinary merit, in many cases giving immediate relief from the coughing, hawking and constant clearing of the throat and head, those symptoms with which everyone is famil- iar who has ever suffered from colds in ihe head and throat. Catarrh i# simpily a continuation of these symptoms until the trouble es chronic and grows gradually worse m year to year. % Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets are of Hydrastin, Eucalyptol. Gualacel ana similar antiseptics ai catarrh specifics, from which it will be seen that #o secref i= made of the ingredients and also that no mineral poisons are used, as is the case with many well-known catarrh med- jcines. x For catarrh of the nose, throat, bron- chial tubes, for catarrh of stomach, in- testines or bladder no preparation is so safe and gives such rapid and permanent results as Stuart's Catarrli Tablets. All druggists sell them at 5¢ for full eized package. You can use them with assurance thay you will not contract the ;;::.n:nl‘ill:r;ll 3 ne habit as the rfll'ull! cure are a; ent from the first day's use. - g2 Symptoms RALSTON FAI IRISH SILENCES CALAVERAS MAN - S FO - heirs has paia | | | | ! ‘ the Senate and Debris Commission had said that $500,- ) was more than he could use In a long nd Governor Neff interrupted to ention to Heuer's statement that not one dollar weuld be used until \hel $800,000 was in sight. i Duryea was aiso in doubt as to the propriety of voting for the appropriation | before it was needed, despite the fact that the bill makes it payable two years from now.

It was surmised that he received a hint from the Governor that an appropriation of $150,000 was undesirable. As the Governor in his message practically recommends the al- lowance, the representatives of the min- ing interests in California are wondering from what source Ralston is obtaining his inspiration to fight the appropriation. BELSHAW’S RESOLUTION PASSED BY THE SENATE | " Provides That a Committee Visit and Inspect San Quentin Prison. CALL HEADQUARTERS, BSACRA- MENTO, Jan. 23.—It was time for junket, 0o two resolutions providjng as many were introduced in the Senafe to-day. One was long and the other im- portant, and the extent of both aroused fears in the breast of Leavitt for the maintenance of a quorum. He was reas- | sured, however, and the resolutions went | through. | 'The important one, submitted by Bel- shaw, provides that a special committee |of seven, composed of three members | from the Committee of Finance and four from the Committee on ‘Prisons, au. | thorized to visit and inspect the Stat prisons at San Quentin and Folsom. The visit to 8an Quentin will be an important one from the fact that may form the basis for a motion by B aw to investi- |gate the recent scandal re. He has | said he would take no action in the prem- ises until the inspection had been made, but he has said as well that there seems need of some such investigation. |~ Senator Maggard introduced the less fm- | portant but more extensive resolution, | His mmur!rfmv‘ldes that Senators Row- {ell and Laird of the Hospitals Commit- | tee, Senators Pace and d of the Health Committee, Senator: .

The sword of Damocles should not longer be permitted to hang over the heads of our people. It should be removed, that at night they may slcep undisturbed and by day follow their avo- cations without fear. Therefore, I ask, and confidently expect of this Senate, the unani- mous passage of the resolution. Belshaw followed with agalea for a sep- arate investigation by the Senate, and the appointment of a speclal committee for the purpose, but his suggestion found lit- tle favor. 'Bettman told of his experi- ence a few weeks ago, wien he was kept out of the State of Texas until he coufd get a pass or be fumigated. Cutter spoke again upon the fact that, had the State quarantine not been raised as quickly as it was, the entire fruit crop would have mne to waste. To simply request that nyoun be removed, he sald, was treat- ing him leniently. .He remembered th time In this State when no offictal woula have been requested—when such men Kinyoun, in the language of the ninilists, resolution is a That, for the | can State Central a eeting held a éopy_of which the universal ex | he State, all of respectfully but quarantine offi- of the Senate & transf ra.l Had. passed mously execrated throughout the State, and he ehould no los retained here.
