Spring Head, Eth October, 1916.

Mr.. EDITOR: In the last Democrat. I'M
der the head Labor" you have touched
on a subject of vastly more importance
TO this community than are the operations
of Gen'l Taylor and his army, with all
their splendid victories.
1t is meant, if every parent had faith,
such as yon have, which produces works,
guide and direct the whole family, and
show by labor in heads Of families, by
training and intoxicating the principle, and
in having their children to labor with their
own hands, and truly to teach them, Labor
is honorable, and the only way to be no.
nest. Then would it be truly said, he that
was instrumental in bringing about such
change in our country, has rendered bet
ter service than he that has taken a city
Notwithstanding loalers are not so plen-
tiful about our towns and villages, as eight
or ten years ago, yet there is an evil a
broad something worse. Those loafers
lived on credit; but now there are many,
too many, who get possession of their
neighbours labor, and feel no moral obi
CATION to pay for it. In such cases, appeal
to the law, he will quite readily tell you
he is worth nothing; and many times the
same man is rolling in his carriage, and
has a fine house well furnished This is
not honest, and shame should burn the
cheeks TO cinder for such acts.
If every man able to work was willing,
and would keep himself usefully employ
ed-set good example by illustrating the
important truth that Labor is honorable
and honest, then would happy change be
effected in our midst. Our youngsters
should be taught to wait on themselves;
the misses TO sew, knit, spin, and weave.
There is time for all useful things, and
to every purpose under Heaven; and he
that refuses to devote his time to useful
purposes, such as TO produce something to
cast into the common stock, for the COM
fort and support of himself and depend
ants, +" is worse than the lnfdel."
Do call on all who think Alright on this
subject, and who are anxious TO get this
matter or these things right, to come up TO
the help. There should be many and va
ried pieces thrown forth in your paper on
this same matter. Keep it before the peo-
pie. 1t is of vast importance.

SILAs WRIGHT.-The State convention
for the nomination Of the democratic can
ddate for Governor, was held on the lst
instant at Syracuse, and we have the gra-
LITIGATION to announce that SIas Wright
was nominated for reelection on the first
ballot The Convention was composed
of 1876 members, and Gov. Wright recelv-
ed all the votes but l4::- Addison Gardi-
ner, the present incumbent, was also reno
minated for lieutenant governor.
The fame of Sias Wright has long since
ceased 10 be confined to the narrow boun-
daries of Slate, but has become the
rightful property of the whole nation. To
no man between the Aroostook and the
Sabine does the democracy owe a deeper
debt of gratitude. Not only is his name
associated with the past history of New
York, but it is intimately blended with the
brilliant triumph achieved by the demo-
cracy Of the Union in the election of Polk
and Dallas. Friends and Toes admit that
his great popularity secured the vote OF
New York.
| No true hearted or right minded demo-
crat will forget this, nor fail to appreciate
the patriotic, self-denyng course of Silas
Wright in that critical juncture. He was
then, along with our own Buchanan, at
the head of the American Senate. They
sat side by side, twin champions of The
pure principles of democracy, both calm,
identified and statesmanlike in all their &C
:ions. Around no member of that exalt
ed body did the affections of his country
men cluster more thickly than around ST.
las Wright. He was reverenced within
the council chamber and without. He
had troops of friends to praise; no ene-
mics to condemn. The most attractive
honors literally pursued his path. The
supreme bench, cabinet honors, posts oil
diplomacy, the vice-presidency, were sue
cessively at his service, but he was too IN
ambitious to accept them. Finally. the
democracy of New York, seeing the Her
culeau efforts of The wings TO carry the
STATIC for Clay, with one accord demanded
his services as their standard bearer. lie
consented, and the sequel IS known dc
carried the republican flag in triumph
through the most excited contest the coun
try had witnessed since 1900, and ex
changed his proud place in the Senate fol-

DR.. Peters's
Vegetable Pills.

WINNIE which tries all things, has thor,
n. oughly established the inestimable
value of these Pills as cathartic, antibil-
ious and detergent medicine. 1t is now
twelve years since DR.. Peters gave them
to the world and their reputation founded
on his long experience, still continues to
increase. The annual sales which, during
the first year amounted to one hundred
thousand boxes, have, during the past
year, exceeded ten times that amount; and
the market for them once confined to few
states, now comprises not only the entire
union, but Canada, N. Brunswick, Nova
Scotia and the West Indies. They may
truly be termed the great household medi-
cine of the south and west. Noother pills
have ever been so widely patronized in
those regions. They are purely vegetable
in their nature, and so mild and gentle in
their operations, that they may be given
with perfect safety even to an infant.
