BEDFORD INQUIRER AND CHRONICLE.

70 Prof Wood, thc removed discoverer
of the invaluable s.Hair Restorative" still
continues to labor IN behalf of the afflicted,
His medicines are universally admitted by
the American press to be far superior TO hll
others for causing the hair, GU the head of
the aged, to grow forth with as much vigor
aud luxuriance MS when blessed with the adj
vantases Of youth. There can De no doubt,
if we place credit in the innumerable testi-
monials which the Professor has in bis pos
session, that it is one Of the greatest discov-
cries in The medical world. 1t restores, per-
manently, gray hair to its original color,and
makes it assume beautiful silky texture,
which has been very desirable in ali ages of
The world. 1t frequently happens that old
men marry beautiful amiabe young ladies',
and not unfrequenily crusty old maids make
victims of handsome, good.uatured young
gentlemen, and by what process it has new
er been determined, until lately, when il was
attributed to the use of this invaluable Hair
Restoratiye.--[ ilasalle Journal. For sale

At West Ely, Madison County, Missouri, on
the Sd of October, MARY JANE LOGAN, wife of
William G. Logan, ESQ.,, in the 42d year of her
age.
The death of this estimable lady will be
deeply deplored by large circle Of friends and
acquaintances in this place where she was born,
and lived for many years. She was daugh-
ter of the late Judge Morrison. She was a
woman of great kindness and amiability Of
temper, OF rare talents and accomplishments,
and was for many years an ornament of the
society of Bedford. Her death is sad be-
reavement to her aged mother now residing in
our midst, who has lived to lose her husband
and all her children save one; to her husband,
to whom she was faithful and affectionate e
wife. and to her children, to whom she was a
fond mother.
Shs fell asleep in Jesus, sweetly trusting in
him for salvation; often repeating in her last
hours. that Christ was the author and flasher
of her faith. She waited calmly the approach
of death. 1t had no terrors for her. She had
gained victory over it and the grave, through
Jesus Christ, her Lord and Saviour,

THE TARIFF.

Never in the history of the country, has
there been more need Of tariff for protec
ton than there Is now. Owing to the Re-
peal nj the Tariff of 1912, and tho passage
of the Free Trade bill of 1916, the people
ofthe United States, are suffering the great
est monetary revulsiou hat has ever occur
red. Our manufacturers and mechanics are
not able TO compete with Foreigners, and
the consequence is, that our country is food
ed with British, French, aud other foreign
articles, and it takes all the the specie We
can raise TO pay fof them. If we had Tar
iff sufficiently protective to enable our own
people to manufacture articles that we need, !,
ana to employ the labor OF our own mechan-
les in their production, the specie would stay
at home, instead Of being sent abroad, and
we wouid hear no more Of panics. The sim
ple truth Of the whole matter is, that We buy
more than we seli--the balance of trade Is
arainst us, and the difference has to be paid
in hard money This revGlsion ould have
occurred years ago, had hot the gold of
California been just then discovered, but
even that has failed to pay the difference,
and the people in all parts of the country
will have to come back to the protective
principle, or suffer the consequ ences OF the
iollv of the Locofoco party, in repeating 1t.
let the people have prote etion, and
good sound currency, and all will be we'll.

Election Frauds I'm Minnesota

From the Chicago Tribune 27fh.l
Our Minnesota exchanges come to us fl
led with the details bf enormous and dis
graceful frauds all over the border. The
Indians were piled with whiskey by Gov
crnment officials and others on the day of
elcciio1, and set to voting the Democratic
ticket; starved-aut Irishnen were placed in
circuits, with Tie proceeds of the Fort
Smelling swindle, doubtless,l to canvass
half dozen precincts, aud vote at each /;
returns were openly manufactured; and f.
nally, Pemtina county, with voting pop
ulation of less than one hundred, has brought
in sir hundred Democratic mqjoriiy
A correspondent writes from Glencoe,
Mcleod county, Minnesota, under date Oct.
IL.
One hundred Indians, ,cearing their blan-
kefs at the lime, voted on the Winnebago
Reservation the Democratic ticket. One
hundred and ten did vote; but the Agent
thought this was rather er'steep, SO he took ten
tickets out Of the box, an crossed tho same
number OF names from the list.
From the .Hinnesotian, Oct. -.
just as we expected aud said, the reports
that county called Davis had given 23S
majority for Sibley, "all the votes cast,
aud that 4 county called Pearce had polled
l9l majority for Sibley; also sail the votes
cast" tnrus out to have been barefaced
fraud. An interview with the alleged ex-
press messenger, who brought these reports
to St. Paul, enables us to explode the whole
as fiction, a fabrication, oaseess and with
out foundation lIo now alleges that in a
remnant of what ,cas Davis county, beyond
Meeker, there was poll opened at one
place, at which 10 Votes are said to have
been polled, aud that Sibley received all the
votes cast there.
