the Board OF County Canyassers were OF the opin-
ion that It was the duty OF the Board OF State

the fact that evidence to prove nlegality intimi-
dation or fraud accompanied the statement OF the

Your committee have been furnished by Mr..
Gufiin with twelve afndayits showing that
there were many persons who were intiInidated

not vote These acidavits. are correborated by
the testimony OF Mr.. Thomas A. Sullivan, who
states that he was at the Bradley's Mills Precinct
on the day OF said election, and that there were
betwQen thirty and forty persons driven from the
pon b members Of the Democrats party aud not

statement of the Board or County Canvassers, re-
oeiyed. the highest number OF votes for senator,
was not served with copy OF the protest setting
forth the grounds upon which his election was to
be contested, but hearing that Mr. Gufhn claimed
the seat and that 1t was claimed that voters were
iHtimidated at Calhoun's Mills, furnished your
committee with ten aflidayits, setting forth that
the election was orderly and that all had the
right TO vote as they desired.

E.Y-KEEP THE CIRCULATION AC-
TIyE-A free and regular circulation OF the blood
is essential to health. 1t places the whole system
in state OF active defence against all unwhole-
some influences, and is al especial safeguard
against the inimical effect of sudden changes OF
temperature, and OF daml and cold.
If proper attention were paid to this important
fact, there would not only be great decrease n
the number of cases OF stomach, bowel and renal
complaints, but also in the number OF deaths by
consumption and other pulmonary diseases.
At this period of the year, when the dividing
line which separates genial from an inclement
season has Just been passed. a course OF HOSTEL
TER'S STOMACH BITTERS will be found OF in
valuable service in improving the condition Of the
vital nuid and gently stimulating its flow. Vio-
lent coughs and colds, like intermittent fever, are
the frequent effects OF chilly atmosphere upon
a debilitated organization Diseases OF the Kid
ncys often proceed from the same source. How
essential it is therefore, for persons OF feeble con-
stituton, to invigorate the vital organization at
the commencement of winter. Fortified by warm
clothing without, and HOSTETTER'S BITTERS
within, the frail and delicate may brave with
immunity an amount Of exposure and hardship
which, under other circumstances, would pros
tratc them on bed of sickness Let them con-
slider this and be wise in time. decl3 6D6C

DOES Iowa FARMING PAY?-The
following is from the pen of cores
pondent Of the Waynesburg, (Pa., }
Republican, ard those who live in
southern Iowa can readily produce
numerous similar cases 81 will give
you one incident which is now upper
most in my mind, but which is only
one OF thousands, showing whether
farming pays in this country. A lit
tie more THAI q year ago Mr.. Ste
phcnson came to this place with q
little money IN his pocket, a stout
heart, a strong arm and good span
of horses. Instead of sitting down
in idleness, using up his means and
complaining because he could not get
rich, ho went out west of town and
bought 80 acres of prairie at So per
acre, and Immediately commenced
breaking it up, which being done, he
spent the winter in preparing fem
cling; last spc:ng he sowcd it with
wheat, and while the grain was
growing, put up the fence. The crop
was harvested, threshed, and one
thousand bushels sold at $1.15 per
bushel, realizing the handsome sum
of s1.150 with some FIVE hundred
bushels left for homo use and next
years seed. Thus one years CROP
paid tho whole price OF the land,
breaking, seed, seeding and harvest
ing. Intelligent, industrious Iowa
farming does pay"
