SEBBET I THE ONLY DISSOLVER OF THE POISON OUS URIC ACID WHICH KXISTS IN THE BLOOD .OK KHEUMATIC AND GOUTY PA TIENTS. 8AL1CYLICA is known as a common seDse remedy, because it strikes directly at the caune of Rheumatii'm. Gout and Neuralgia, while so many so-called speeifics aud supposed panaceas only treat locally the effects. It has been conceded by eaiineat scientists that outward applications, such as rubbing with oils, ointments. linUneuts, and soothing lotion will not eradicate the diseases which are the result of the poisoning of the blood with Uric Acid. HALICYLICA works with marvelous ef fect on this acid and so removes the disorder. It is oow exclusively used by all celebrated physicians of America and Europe. Highest Medical Academy of Paris reports 5 per cent cures ia three days. REMEMBER thnt SAttCYlirA is a certain cure for RHEUMATISM, JOLT and NEURALGIA.

The following Chicago correspon dencc to a Cincinnati paper has been hauried us for publication by a gentle man fruml to the cause. It's an ex cellent letter from the pen of S. E. W'lslianl, and well worth it careful pe rnsal: TIIK SALOON TVltAJtNY. All law i tyrannical. It enslaves the mental, moral and physical na ture. It throttles every manly aspi ration. Demands submission to the claims ef the auimal life within u. but the most insolent iniquity that stalks before the public Is that ot the saloon. The demands ol the saloon ure ac tually a-ttoiitshin. It is a surprising fact that the business l destroying society not ouly has the effrontery tu insert iUelf as a legitimate business, but now demands, iu our cily, that every other business shall "pay tax and tribu e to it." It was recently elated by one of our ablest lawyers Unit cventy-tive per cent of our mun icipal taxes were directly laid upon our city by the immediate work of the saloons. It is not pretended in any quarter that ati)r matt is benefitted by the saloons. Even the keepers os these el. ops wf crime who reap a huge iwon eye.t harvcsl front their work are not heiifliieil in any broad and valuable sense. Their gaius enable tlieiu to perlcct the innchinery ot moral and physical death. Their enrichment for a time only widens I ho stream and deepens the current ihtfl is bearing ihoni downward. Our municipal gov ernment is THE CROUCHING SLAVE of this relentless tyranny. Hitherto our city goverumeul has granted a license to the saloon keeper to carry on his infamous work for the paltry sum of $52 per year. A large number of the saloon-keepers take out a li cense, and auothee large number car ry on their work without a licanse. Recently the citizens undertook to se cure the requirement of $500 as the price ot license. Petitions were cir culated, n nd iu a few days secured the signatures of 6,000 prominent bus iness men. It was stated by Judge Grant that .00,000 signatures could have been secured if- a little more time could have been given to the work. Some of our city papers, es pecially the Inter Ocean, urged the importance of advauing the license f ee to $ oOO. La-t Saturday a large delegation of citizens met the committee from the council having the matter in charge. Judge Grant and several business men ably urged the importance of a higher license, which might be re-, sirictive, aud terminate tne work of the lower aud more infamous class of saloons. The pctitiou also requested that no licence be granted, at any price, to disreputable iuer. A German lawyer plead the cause oi the liquor interest aud presented a plan of gradiusi the price of license, which had been drawn up by the Liquor Seller's League. The princi ple of this plan requires the saloon keeper to state the animal amount ot income irom his business and the price of license to be graded by the income. One of our city paper has well characterized it as "a law to en courage perjury." Here was a square issue made bv the respectable men of the city with the men who traffic ia death. The result is scarcely credible, but here it U: The city council shoved aside tho petitions representing the business, the homes and the churches of the city, and adopted the plan of license drawn up by the liquor sellers them selves. THIS REVELATION. has its U-S4uu, und will open the eyes that arc blind. It certainly cannot be much further to the bottom, aud when wc have reached that point we shall be done with the d scent. Here is a business t ie iufamy of which no language cau depict. It crowds the courts, the jaila the alius house aud pcuiteutiary with its victims. It drags in the track of its iniquitous work a fiuautial burden upuu tho peo ple ruuuiug up into the million. It tefust-s auy restraint auy share iu the burdens which it imposes upon a leng-sufferiug people. It demanded and received $15,000,000 last year from the industries of the people in this city, and paid ouly $12,000 taxes less than a single business li in iu the city paid. Suppose the merchauts, grocers, butchers or the representa tives of any single honest industry of the city should com. before l lie city council and make out . a schedule of what their taxes must or must not be. How soon, and with what indigna tion, u will I they be taught the lesson of submission to municipal authority! But this tyrauny of the saloon has stealthily made its encroachments.

Evidences of diss-atisfaction with the petit and grand jury systems are cropping oul in various parts of the country. Governor Ireland, of Texas, in his last message to the legislature recommended important limitations in the clans of cases submitted to the .inner, and a bill has been introduced in the Illinois legislature for the total abolition of the latter. The Constitu tion of the United States provides that the trial of all crimes shall be by ju:y, except in c.ises of impeachment so th;it nothing less than a constitu tional amendment could effect the ab olition uf juries in criminal cases, and certainly very few people would wish to see a radical change in this deeply grounded principle of Anglo-Saxon law; but there is a very general senti ment in favor of making a clearer distinction than there is between the power of the jury with reference to the law and its powere with reference to facts. Governor Ireland favors dispensing with juries in civil cases, for the rea son iiiat own e to their errors the ap pelate courts are overburdened with work, and the duty of seivingon ju ries is ouerous to citizens. Many will recognize the force of this latter prop- sition. The men who make the best jurors, as a rule, are seriously incom moded by being taken away from their business, while those who hang around the courts anxious to serve are the very ones who should not be permitted to do so. It is certain that in many instances the ends of justice are not well subserved by juries as they would bo by judges, for the reason that the former are more liable to be swayed by their sympathies and prejudices. Misdirected eloquence is lost on a practiced judge, whereas it is frequent- all powerful with a jury. Governor Iteland's plan is to substitute for the present arrangement twe trial judges, who can be appealed from when they differ. He says: "So far as making the judgment of the trial court final, I think it will be readily conceded that two good lawyeis holding the trial court would be much more competent. with the witnesses and facts before them, to determine a casG correctly than three or more judges holding the appellate court, could do on a trans cript sent up. This change, he claims. would have the merit of effecting more just results, being speedier, more economical, less troublesome to the community and less burdensome on the higher courts. Changes of this nature are to be made cautiously. There is a good deal of vested v is lom in established usa ges frequently which does not appear on the surface. Still the taking of law questions utterly out of the hands of juries has beon revolved in the minds of many thoughtful jurists, the gener al imdression being that it would be a wise move. As to the wisdom of abol ishing the Grand Jury, as contempla ted by Illinois statesman who has in troduced a b:li to that effect in his state, not so much can be said. There are certain kinds of indictments which can be found much better in the secret sessions of the Grand Jury roim than anywhere else. Informa tion can thus be obtained which could be procured in no other way. Perhaps such cases are rare, but still they ex ist. The subject is one which it will do no harm to discuss, however. It is a peculiarity of law procedure that it is liable to grow more musty than any thing else, because it depends so much on the gospel of precedents. A shak ing of it up may prove profitable. Globe Democrat. The Arkansas legislature has finally rejected, by a vote of 5:1 to S3 in the bouse, the proposal to consolidate the state with the Federal (Congressional and Presidential) elections. The union was advocated ou the score of. econo my ; there is no attempt to conceal the fact that it was opposed on the ground that the river counties ought not tube deprived, through presence of Federal officersjat.the polls, of the opportunity of bulldozing colored voters, or mak ing fraudulent returns at state and county elections. A. Chicot "General" appealed tV democrats in the House theS jTday to "look at this fill iu the light that we of the river counties view It. It meant ruiu to us," he said ; "it means that our couu ties shall be governed by : negroes." Now, If this talk means anything, it is an admission that the negroes in the rivor counties are in the majority; that they will not vote the democratic ticket; that they now are iu. permit ted te vote at all, and that if they were allowed to. vote, republican can didates would be elected. The facts thus admitted are true, so fur as two or three counties are concerned Globe Democrat. Shall There be Bang. F roui the Wlr-hiU. (Kail.) Tlmsv Bangs on a girl give her n unruly look, like a cow with a board over her face. You take the gentlest cow in the world and put a board ever her face, and turn her out in the pasture aud she gets the reputation of being unruly, and you would swear she would jump fences and raise merry Hades, and you wouldn't give srt much for her by $10 only for beef. It is so with a girl. If she wears her hair high on her forehead, or brushed back, a or even has frizzes, ana nas a goon look, you will g your bottom dollar on her, and you feel that sha is nsgoml as gold, and that when she tells her young man that she loves him, there is no discount, and no gigging back; but take the same girl, with her front hair banged, and when she looks at you, you feel just as though she would hook, and you can't trust i he r. She has a fence-jumping look that makes a young man feel as though he would not feel safe unless she was lied hand and foot so she couldn't get out of the pasture. A girl with. bangs 'may try to be good and true, Uni it lis awful hard work. When she looks at her self in the glass and sees the quarter of an inch of forehead, she says to herself: "I am dangsrons; they want to look out for me." She thinks she is all right, but she is constantly do ing that which a girl who wears her hair brushed back would not think of doing. The bang girl may belong to the church, and may try to put ou a pious look when the hymn is being read; but she will look out from be hind those bangs, sidewise, at some meek and lowly young Christian who is trying to get his mind on the hymn, and he will get his mind on her, and it will break him all up, and he won't know whether he is singing "A Charge to Keep I Have" or "She's a Daisy." The bang girl may place her bangs on the back of the pew ahead of her dur ing the morning prayer, and try to be good, but her corset will be too light, and as she hitches arouud to ease the pain, one eye wilt rise like tho morn ing sun over the back of the pew, and that eye will catch the eye of a young man two seats to the right, who is trying to cover Lis face with one hand while he tries to keep the flies eff the pomade on his hair with the other, and his interest iu the prayer is knocked into a cocked hat. The hang ing of gill's hair changes the u hole nature of the little wretch, aud she be comes as a gun that is not loaded. You take a picture of "Eyangeline'' aud bang her hair, aud she would look as though she would like to "run at" people. How would Mrs. Van Colt, the alleged female preacher, look with her hair banged? It is just the same with boys. Yoa take a nice, pious Sunday-school boy who can re peat 300 verses of the New Testament and cut his hair with a clipper, unci he looks like Tug Wilson.

There is much speculation as to salaries paid railroad officials and ploy a filling important positions railway management. Fair yari reasons, it is very dillicult to UeJ mine the amounts received by class of men. The pay-rolls cannot taken as evidence, as in many insl ces the vouchers drawn from lime time for what is classed as "spe service" fully equal the sum named the pay-rolls. In the west Geu'l M ageis receive from 810,000 to 815, per year; Gen'l Sup'ts, from 8'J,00o 16,000; Asst.
