Dcni.VG the last fiscal year the tobacco
tax yielded over $:50r000,000 of revenue.
A th! tax is a direct burden upon the
producer, why not begin the work of re
ducing the revenue by miking tobacco
growing and manufacturing free, like the
growing and manufacturing of wheat,
for instance?
Certificathm have been given to
Stockbridge, in Maryland, and Coleman,
in Louisiana, who were republican candi
dates for congress in their respective dis
tricts. There was no reasonable doubt
of their election, but the democratic man
agers demanded that certificates be with
held from them. A part of the Bourbon
conspiracy to steal the House from the
republicans has thus been defeated.

WHAT ON EARTH
Is tho reason people will not, can not, or
do not Bee any difference in cheap nos
trums put up by Cheap John houses or
irresponsible parties at enormous profits,
rather than take a medicine of world
wide reputuation and one that is giving
universal satisfaction at equal price? No
medicine in the world is giving such un
paralleled satisfaction for purifying the
blood as UEGO'S BLOOD PUUIPIEK &

of America in Congress assembled, That
the certificates and lists of votes for
Presiden and Vice President of tho United
States, mentioned in Chapter 1 of Title
3 of tht Itcvised Statutes of the United
ft t huh, anil in tne act to wmcn tins is a
supplement, shall be forwarded, in the
maimer therein provided, to the President
of the. Senate forth vitliafter the second
.Monday in January, on which the electors
shall give their votes.
Herttion 2. That Section 141 of the
Revised Statutes of the United States is
hereby so amended ns to rtad as follows:
"Section 141. Whenever a certificate
of votes from any State has not been re
ceived at the seat of Government on the
fouilh Monday of the month of January
in which their meeting shall have been
held, the Secretary of State shall send a
special messonger.to the district judge m
whose custody one certificate of the votes
from that State lias been lodged, and
such Judge shall forthwith transmit that
list to the scat of Government."
Approved, October 10, 1888.
The electors in all the States now have,
therefore, for their instruction and
authority a precise and consistent statute
of the United States, superseding all
State laws, directing that they shall meet
and cast their votes on the second Mon
day in January, and transmit the ccrtifi
cates and lists forthwith thereafter to the
President of the Senate. N. Y. Tribune.

tobacco, i ins oil, winch is liberated by
combustion, is bad both in flavor and in
effect, and it is letter, even for tho im
mediate pleasure of tho smoker, that it
should lo excluded altogether from his
mouth and air passages.
Smoking in a Ktub of a pipe is particu
larly injurious, for the reason tliat in it
the oil is stored in a condensed form,
and tho smoke is thereforo hirhly
charged with the oil. Sucking or chew
ing the stub of a cigar that ono is smok
ing is a serious mistake, because tho
nicotine in tho unburned tobacco dis
solves freely in tho saliva, and is ab
sorbed. Chewing" is on tliia account
the most injurious form of tho tobacco
habit, and tho use of a cigar holder is an
improvement on tho custom of holding
the cigar between the teeth.
MISCUIEF OF CIGARETTES.
Cigarettes are responsible for a great
amount of mischief, not because tho
smoke from tho paper has any particu
larly evii effect, but because smokers
and they aro often boys or very young
& . . . ,
men mo apt io use uiein continuously
or at trequent uitervais, believing tluit
their iKjwer lor evil is msigmhcant.
Thus the r.orves aro under the constant
influence of the drug, and much injury
to the system results. Moreover, the
cigarette smoker uses a very considerable
amount of tobacco during the course of
a day. "Uipprng and "KiiuhinT are

Iowa's prohibitory liquor law went
into effect in July 1884. In that year
her total vote was 373,877, a gain o
SS.SOl votes over the total poll of 1880.
This year her total vote was 401,1)44;
showing a gain since 1884 of 23,757
Toters. Prohibition may perhaps have
tended to decrease Iowa's groth in popu
lation, but it cei tainly has not brought
about the disastrous results predicted by
its opponents. A gain of 130,000 people
in four years in a state of kss than
2,000,000 Is doing well. Pawnee Republican.
TnE Philadelphia Record says " it
would be a good rule to admit no Ter
ritory into the Union as a State with
out sufficient population to entitle it to
two members of the House of Represen
tatives." But how about the number of
votes which a Territory casts? This
ought to eouut ior something in de
termining its right to admission.
Dakota casts far more vot?s for its Dele
gate to the House cf Representatives
than Georgia docs for its entire delega
tion in that body. Georgia sends ten
members to the House. If Dakota be
not entitled to aduiiiiiuii as two states,
then political fairness and decency de
mands that some legal means be adopted
whereby Fuch States as Georgia can be
placed for awhile in the Territorial
stage.

THE ELECTORS AND THE LA II
There is some confusion in the public
mind and perhaps among the Presidential
electors, as to the date on which they are
required to meet and cat their votes for
President and Vice-Presidents, and as to
the date ot the delivery of lb-ts and cer
tiftcitci to the President of the Senate.
The United States law of February
1S37, provided that the electors of each
State should lueeL sad cast their vots on
the second 3fonday in January, but thi
provision made it impossible for them to
comply cither with the law of New York
("and presumably of other States) or with
tho Revised Statute, which had previous
ly been in harmony, and which provided
that the certificates and lists of votes for
President and Vice-President should be
delivered to the President of the Senate
before the firr Wednesday in January.
To remedy this defect a law was passed
and approve 1 on O.-tober 19, leiwhich ,

cussed. ISot much tiiect is obtained
from tho use of tho drug in these vari
eties of tho habit.
Nkotino is one pf tho most powerful
of the "nerve poisons" known. Its viru
lence is compared to that of prussic acid.
If birds be made to iulialo its vapor in
amounts too small to be measured, they
are almost instantly killed. It seems to
destroy life, not by attacking a few, but
all of the functions essential to It, begin
ning at tne center, tho heart. A signifi
cant indication of this is that there is no
6ubst.mco known which can counteract
its effects: tho system either 6iiccumbs
or survives. Its depressing action on
the heart is by far tho most noticeable
and noteworthy symptom of nicotine
poisonifg. The frequent existence of
what is Known as "smoker s heart in
men whoso health is in no other respect
disturbed is duo fo this fjict.
AN EXPERIMENTAL OBSERVATION.
In an experimental observation of
thirty-eight boys of all classes of society
and of average health, who had been
using tobacco fMr periods ranging
from two months to two years, twenty
seven showed severe injury to the con
stitution and insuflicicnt growth; thirty
two showed the existence of irregular;
of tho heart's action, disordered 6t: .
aclis. cough, and a craving for tdcol.; !
thirteen liad intermittency of the puL'
and one had consumption. After thr.
had abandoned tho use of tobacco, wit1
six months' time one-half were free fi w.i
their former symptoms, and the remain
der had recovered by the end of the year
A great majority of men go far be
yond what may be called the temperate
use of tobacco, and evidences of mjury
are easily found. It is only necessary to
navo some record ex wnat tho general
health was previous to tho takjng up of
tho habit, and to have observation cover
a long enough tune. The history of to
bacco ui tho island ot iew Zealand fur
nisljcs a quite suggestive illustration for
our purpose, ana oaa on a large scale,
When Luropeans first visited New-
Zealand they found in the native Maoris
the most hneJv developed and jowerful
men of any of the trioes inhabiting the
islands of the Pacmc. Since tho intro

developed a passionate liking, they have
from this cause alone, it is said, become
decimated in numbers, and at the same
time reduced in stature end in physical
well being so as to be an altogether infe
rior typo of men. C. W. Lyman in New
