An Unprotected System.

Do not fancy because you feel strong tina
you are impregnable to sickness. Whole
neighborhoods are frequently Frustrated al
this season by malarious fevers. Vigorous
muscles and strong sinews, broad shoulders
and sound lungs, are no defence against the
mephitic vapors of autumn. Frames which
have withstood the summer heat may sue
cumb now. Many an athletic man, whose
family depends for its support on his in
dustry, now lies PROSTATE, weak and help
less as babe, under the periodical assaults
of chills and fever, or bilious remittent
fever. This could not be if all were wise
enough to provide against such a con.
tingency, by toning and certifying the sys-
tenn with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. This
approved vegetable tonic is absolutely
harmless, so that 1t is sheer folly not to take
i. as safeguard at season when diseases
ofthe liver, the stomach, the bowels, and in.
deed all the visceral organs are generally
prevalent. To keep the system in order and
insure health, or to put in order when this
precaution has been neglected, is the duty
of every human being who values life. For
both these purposes Hostetter's Bitters is
designed, and 1t answers both. Petty local
dealers are endeavoring, in many parts OF
the country, to substitute preparations
made ofimpure and dangerous materials in
it's stead. Give them wide berth. They
are prepared by unskilful experimentors,
who want to turn penny at the expense
of the public health.

WHEREVER in the West GRANT goes,
he feels the whitening effect of CARL
ScHURz's denunciations. The cold
shoulder is turned on the Great Retl-
cent in a manner that makes him
shudder for his chances in the coming
Republican Convention. The great
orator says:
81 will not help to re-elect an officer
whose reelection, sanctioning his pre-
vious acts with popular approval, will
be a justification and encouragement
to all future Presidents in committing
acts of usurpation still farther. l will
not help in paving the way to the ad'
vent of irresponsible personal govern.
ment in this republic; and when |
am told that by such opposition other
grave interests may be jeopardlzed, |
answer that am very doubtful whether
the wanton levity with which our
Presidents are to be permitted to play
with peace and honor OF our people.
and the general decay Of constitutional
notions, do not constitute, in their inev'
liable consequences, as great a danger
and perhaps even greater, than any
now within sight"

During the forenoon Of Wednesday

During the forenoon Of Wednesday ne
had made a very caustic speech in the
Federal Court against the Stanton
party, handling them without gloves.
He had reason to apprehend an attack
from some of the party. Colonel Fert,
who introduced Colonel Nelson to him,
was one of the attorneys on the Stanton
side of the case. though friendly with
Clanton. 1t is thought that when Mel
son showed signs of irritability, the idea
must have entered Clanton's mind the
affair was maneuver to inveigle him
into difficulty, and, being brave under
all circumstances, he determined to
meet the issue then and there. 1t is
believed that he must have thought
however erroneously) that the Stanton
business was at the bottom of the diff
ficulty.

IT MAY as we'll be plainly said befor

IrMAY as well be plainly said before
the nominations, as it will be said after
them, that if the Democratic party ex-
pect or desire to maintain majority in
the Board of Supervisors, those who at
tend the primary meetings on Saturday
night cannot be too careful in their
nominations. We know the Republi.
cans will make a big effort to gain the
ascendancy in this Board, and we know
that it is an item OF interest to the
Sheriff to be able to control that body.

The Radical Collectors of Internal
Revenue have stolen, according to Mr..
BoUTwELL's own statement, $50, 700,-
1888. Think of it! Twenty Million
Seven Hundred Thousand Nine Hun
dred and Eighty Dollars and Thirty
three Cents. Half enough to pay the
expenses of an honest administration of
the government. Every day some new
defalcation is turning up, going to show
that nearly all the expenses of the gov
eminent could be saved by putting a
stop to the stealings that are going on.

the Treasury Department for boats
which Senator Morton obtained when
he was Governor for use in the war.
Notwithstanding that the Government

OVER one thousand men are en-.
ployed in the Philadelphia Navy Yard.
This would be all very well if there
was any real necessity for it. But the
truth is, that these votes will be needed
by the Radicals at the ensuing election,

repair of vessels there is absolutely ne
cessary. The work requires men, and
the men vote. What matters it that
