The Fall of Tammany.

—; +~~. MO MOEE BLACKMAIL The newly elected Mayor of New York has eoDt bis first message to the Board of Aldermen, It is brief, sod only treftie of blackmail, in tne stamp ing out of which, he says, he desires the co-operation of the people of the city; Tne message Bays that if during iht next two jeers *oy citizen or toy em ployee in the city p»y@ money illegiti mately, either to avoid inquiry or inconvenience, or to secure rights, h« will do it because he wants to, not be cause he must. So one need pay * dime for protection from harm or to secure just treatment at the hands of the city government. No labourer or other employee seed part with a cent to •ny one either in or oat of the city government. The whole force of the administration would be exerted is every possible w»y to punish this sort of iniquity, Any one asked to make improper payment for any purpose has only to report the ftct to the Mayor to be sura of protection and redress. Four Tarn many Magistrates, defeated ia the recent election, nave been causing sensational scenes by refusing to relin gaish their places, declaring that their successors are not legally appointed. When the new reform Magistrate! attempted to occupy the Bench of their respective Courts on Saturday, their Tammany rivals ordered them to bs arrested for contempt. The police re fused to interfere, and the Tammany rain finally cleared the Court rooms and barricaded themselves in, and held possession. Three of them surrendered and tbe new Magistrates took peaceful possession. Mr Dooley, the fourth Tammany official, refused to leave the Bench, and whs seized by the police and forcibly ejected. The Tammany party threaten legal proceedings to retain their judicial position.

[" September 2, 1901 "T~\ KAR Sir, —Possibly thu short account JIJ contained in this latter, in reference to the use of PLANTJ£KOA OINTMENT, \ may be of interest to you. We had just removed from Blackbridgo to the Nai Wai whan my daaghter Ethel had the misfortune to step on a broken tambler, making a fearful gash, catting into the ball of the foor, and laying open the big toe in two halves?. We had it attended, to. but it seemed to be getting worse, when, about five dsya afrer the accident, we wer.;« advised to use PLAJN-- TEKOA. OINTMENT, being assured that PLANTEKOA would soon heal it. At this time it was very bad, the foot swollen and hard, and the wound had an angry fiery appearance, and looked as if blood poisoning was sotting in. However, we faithfully applied Plantekoa Ointment), and wit.hoat going into details, snffibo to say that in a uhorfc liaie the foot was healed, she was able lo pat her boofca on and attend school again. I wonld also iiko to stato that' t used Plantekoa Ointment for my son, who had a gathering or abscess in the ear. He was homo from work for smiie lime with it and was in a bad stata. The discharge from the ear was of such a character that it would set up irritation on the aide of the face, and the pain was very severe. In this case P!antfiko& Ointment wag success fully applied, and in a few days my son resumed work. I cannot recommend Pkatekoa Ointment too highly. Yours sincerely, Mrs Janf. Swan.

ROSS 1 ANDITOTB & OINTMENT THE GREAT HERBAL REMEDY FOR PURIFYING THE BLOOD. npHE following unsolicited Testimonial it by a gentleman well known iv i Ashburton speaks for itself:— Maaterton, August 28,1901. Ross Antidote Company. Dear Sirs,—l feel it my duty to give you this enclosed testimonial in favor of Ross Antidote for purifying the i blood. I have been a great sufferer for many yeate from ulcerated stomach, indigestion, etc, My life was a perfect misery, and I was almost a wreck. I grew tired of trying different medical men and remedies, of which I had triei almost every known one but) yours, and one day some eighteen months aj^o a gentleman came into the shop where I was employed. He remarked 'Jack, you look very ill' (and you may depend I was). He added,' Will you take Rome medicine if I procure it; I replied I wili take anything. He brought me a bottle of your Antidnce, and I took it accordingly aa directed, and to my delight I began t'j get well, and after taking three largo bottles I was a new man—thanks to your great discover jr. I always keep it by me, and find a few doeua occasionally keep me in perfect health, and I wish you the success with it that such a medicine merits. Yon can make what use you like of this. —I remain yours, etc, J H Pauling, Masterton May be obtained from Messrs Fletcher Beos and Shearman Bros, Ashburton 9 232 "TyATTY Pan baking powder, the flreafc JL novelty, two patty tine for nothing From all Gpooera

[THE GRATITCTDI OF AN ASH *. BURTON CITIZEN HEARTILY EXPRESSED EO£ THI PUBLIC GOOD. - ♦ ' Gratitude,' says an old writer, *is the music of the heart whan its cords ar« awepi) by kindness,' Many a heart string has been touched in Aahborton under juisti such circam stances as those surrounding the case of Mrs Tntty, and many are they whose gratitude is bo great that a description attempted in words fails, because cold print cannot express feelings. Mrs Tutfcy, who resides in-Oxford Street, Hampstead, this town, greatly aoknow* ledges benefit from 'The Littla Conqueror' in the following words. I have nothing bat good to say of Doan's Backache Kidney Pills. In the firs': place I used them myself for a weak' and aching back. This trouble was chtonio with me, but these pills cured me. I have been quite free of this pain ever since taking them. Seeing how they acted in my case I g&ve them to my daughter, who is just fourteen, and who was buff -ring from aches and pains all over her, most particularly about the back, I am pJe-issd to say that they proved most beneficial in her case as wall, Frienda of mtna who complained of pains in the back have also used these pills and they each on© say that Doan'a Backache Kiduey Pills have cared them of thesa pains, iheyseerato suit them all. I got the pills at the Ashburton Drag Go's store. Do nos be satisfied with any imitatloa of Doan's Piils. Remember it was Doan's Backache Kidney Piils which Mrs Totbf reoommends, and if you suffer as she and her friends did you want the same remedy. Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are sold by all chemists and storekeepers ah 38 pc? box (six boxes 16s 6d), or will be posted on receipt of price by the proprietors, Foster, McLsllan Co., 76 Pitt Street, Sydney, N.S.W. Bat be sure they are Doan's.
