Mrs. Cleveland : s said to haye be
come an expert in the use of the rifle
and at 200 yards can hit the bull'seye
five times out of a possible seven. In
the event of a war with Canada Grover
will probably send his wife as a substi
tute.
The law-male en. of the .staid and quiet
j old state of Maine are adepts in the art
I of securing public peace and quiet. In
4 one village in that state an oidiuauce
B - provides that "no dog shall bark , bite ,
H howl , or in any other manner disturb
II the quiet of any person" on pain of death
H or punishment.
Wm Who has made any wickeder hit at
ll Cleveland than Governor Hill in one of
B his speeches , when he said : "I do not
Ej propose to weary you with statements
P from the cyclopedia. " It was appar-
Is ently a very harmless sentence , but it
If severed deep-seated vein's and arteries
II under an 18 inch collar.
14 HAVE on your flannelsand winter
I I overcoats , brother democrats , it's going
II to be a chilly week. Prohibitioni.-ts in
I New York and Indiana were your only
I and last hope , and they are going to vote
I for Harrison by the thousand. There
I arc interests at stake too great to throw
I i away , this year.
I Geoveb Cleveland has given to
I his "pet national "banks in interest 20
I times as much money as all the 200
I bills of all soldiers he has vetoed would
I' ' have cost each year. The rich bank < ?
' are indebted to him about $3,000,000
I per year for favors received in the wav
I of $60,000,000 of money loaned with
I out one dollar of interest. .
I "YOU are probably aware , " wrote
1 } Lord Sackville-West , "that any political
II party which openly favored the mother
li country at the present moment would
If lose popularity , and that the party in
K power is fully aware of this fact. ' ' Right
I * ' ' " 'you are , Mr. West , and that is why thp
I democratic party is ready to strangle
I ! you for recommending Englishmen to
Bj vote for Cleveland.
The national republican committee
B has paid $2,000 to a New York man as
I 4 special compensation for having secured
I the conviction of a "rppeater" on the
• charge of illegal registration and illegal
I voting. Is there an instance on record
I. where the democratic party ever paid a
B dollar for such a purpose ? Not that
anybody knows of. Democrats aren't
I built that way.
I' . - DURIXQ the past three months Bnt-
v ish-American clubs have been organized
I all over the country. The business of
I these clubs is to secure the naturaliza-
tion of Englishmen who have recently
" come to United States , so that they can
I vote for Cleveland. It is believed that ,
secretly , Lord Sackville West is back of *
this movement , and it might have had
a very important bearing upon the re
" suit but for the exposures of the recent
ly published letter.
WHAT conspicuous qualifications has
the Hon. John A. McShane for gover
nor of Nebraska ? This is a'growing
state , with a great future before it. It
should have in the executive office a
man experienced in publie affairs ,
patriotically concerned for the progress ;
of the state , and with the ability to rec- j
oramend wise and necessary legislation j
for proraoting'the general we'fare. ' The i
fact that a man has been fairly success- , '
fti ful in his private affairs does not argue i
P ' a capacity for great public duties , and )
Ej such success is all that can fairly be *
g. claimed for Mr. McShane. Theintelli ! :
| p gent voters of Nebraska must see in the
H democratic candidate for governor only
P ? an ardent partisan , who accepted a nom- {
feination with some ulterior purpose in j
it- ' . view , and who , if elected , would doubt- (
% , ' ' less devote himself more to the service j
I' of his party than to the interests .of the f
H whole people. We have no doubt such f
at - voters are numerous enough to defeat (
M the plans of Mr. McShane and his party. |
TllKKE are many specifics offered for
tho curing of the ilia existing between
capital and Jabrir They arc almost n
numerous as the physicians and as vari
ous an the individuality of tho persons
offering them. All err. Statutes can
but immaterially miiigutc the evils com
plained of , and it iiiihL Iio admitted
with shame , existing. Avarice and self
ishness are at the bottom of the tumble
on the one huidnud , ignoiniieCjiiuemjier
ante , idleness and lael ; of economy on
the other side. Legal enactments will
not reach the case satisfactorily. It
would seem as though slipet human 'ig < * n
cies must intervene. When the finger
of the Almighty shall trfuch and melt
the heart of pride , avarice and selfish
ncss , and when that same power shall
elevate the ignorant , intemperate , idle
and improvident to knowledge and habits
of sobriety , industry and economy , then
the laborer , who is accredited in Holy
Writ as being worthy of his hire , will
receive his recompense.
While Gov Hilt smiles outwardly
'
and says he is first and last and all the
time laboring to re elect his old fri"ii < l
Cleveland , inwardly he chafes and kick *
and has junt. given a little smili to the
presidential managers that , shows pretty
well how cruelly the refusal of t leve-
land to notify the mugwumps that be
wants Hill elected too , pinches him
Grover went up on Saturday to "review"
a business men's parade at New York.
It had been widely published that he
and Hill would sit lovingly together on
the same platform and jointly do the re
viewing business. But it appears tint
Hill had previous engagements to speak
in two places that day and he reluct
antly decides that these engagements
are too important to be cancelled and
therefore he can 't attend that review
This declination gives much umbra no
to the Cleveland managers and the. } '
recognize it as a direct snub.
Tnn shutting down of the jute bag
ging factories in New England has been
brought about by the sub > tit.ution of
coarse cotton duck and cotton basrging
made of fine straw as a covering for
bales by the cotton planterof the south.
The cost of the duck and the cotton
bagging is les1 * than in the case of jute
As the pine straw is made of * the needles
of the pine found in southern forest *
and as the southern cotton mills are
making duck for bagging , the southern
planters have given preference to the
new covering. The lute trust in const :
qucucc is bagyinir at the knee and the
industry seems to be in haid straits.
TllK brewers of New York City have
contributed $100 OllO to defeat the lie
publicans in New Jersey because the
last Legislaturewhich was Republican ,
passed a high license and local option
law. Yet the political Prohibiti mi ts
can not see the propriety of indorsing
and assisting to re-elect the members of
the Legislature who bad the courage to
do something ioi the eaiw ) of temper
ance. They are more venomou * in their
assaults on the Republican * than even
the brewers and liquor dealers. Thes.-
men may be honest , but if so , bone. t\
and common sense do not go band m
hand.

Gentlemen I can cheerfully and truth
fully say that S. S. S. is the greatest blood
purifier on earth. In 1884 I contracted
blood poison. Physicians treated me with
no good results. I took a. half dozen d" cr-
ent kinds of blood medicines , but , without
receiving any permanent relief ! I was in
duced to try S. S S. I began the f.rst
bottle with the gravest doubts of success.
I had been so often deceived. But im
provement came , and I continued its use
until perfectly well. I have since married ,
and have a healthy family. No trace of the
disease is seen. Swift's Specific did all
this for me , and I era grateful. Yours
truly , J. S. Strader.
