For the Palladium.
TO THE RESCUE!

Mr. Editor:-As NolO and Volo
have left Jefferson to explore Salt
River alone. we have come to as
sist him in taking the soundings.
Jefferson said he didn't refer to
Com. Wells Report to prove that
the duty of 1912 reduced the price
of salt. If he had referred to the
Report for that purpose, it would
have been pulling his own legs off.
A protective duty means to raise
the price of the imported article
To impose a duty that reduced the
price of the import would be bad
thing, especially from a protective
standpoint.
But Jefferson referred to the re :
port to prove s'that salt is not an
article by which the operation of
a protective tariff can be satisfac-
tori!y tested. If the present duty
on salt don't protect and satisfy
him, why does he work SO hard to
keep up the duty?
cuCA sui AAoi1 1O1U
to 1856, when the duty on salt was
21.2 cents, the price of salt was
higher than it was when the duty
was s cents. He confounds Turk S
Island salt with common salt, and
thus comes to an erroneous conclu
sion. Turks Island, lying neal
the equator, makes it's salt by eva
poration. Salt thus made is purer
preserves meats better than boiled
salt, and weighs IS pounds pc
bushel. Boiled salt weighs but Sc
The average yearly production o
Turks Island salt is only one ant
a half millions Of bushels, ant

The limited product doesn't ALLOW
it to govern the price of our hom
| product, MOI that of other salt.

Healing Power of Eclecticism.-As
Demonstrated On oper Ttcelree thousand Inpolids,
By Dr.. Bort, Of ". Y.-There is healing
power among us; physcion who has cured
thousands in this city, after all other sys-
te ms have been exhausted; physician who
is curing, and further pledging himself to
cure, nearly all cases have ba fled the skill of
hundreds of medical men in all past ages and
even bids defiance to all modern practice;
and lastly there is a physician who can pro-
| duce thou sands Of certificates from some OF
| the most reliable individuals in the city, as
well as elsewhere, who have been positively
and permanently cured after all other treat
| msnt-after the most eminent medical men
had failed! Yes, verify, aud that PITY stefan
is DR.. Bort, whose infrmary is located on
the corner of Third 4 Vine sts., st. Louis.
DR.. Bort, we verify believe, has cured more
chronic cases in the past four months, in St.
Louis than all the medical men who have ev-
er practiced their professions here for those
diseases. He makes as specialities, viz: Dis
eases of the Eye, Ear, Lungs, Throat and Ca.
tarrh. THIS assertion may look like Boosting,
but nevertheless, it is true; and if you doubt
it, consult few Of the persons whose GER
tifcates in full synopsis are to be found in

clans and surgeons, will offer his services.

MAINE TO CALIFORNIA.

The good news from California is sock
dolager to the democrats. 1t makes then
look as though they had just taken part il
q family burial. And well it may. Fol
lowing after the recent republican victories
In North Carolina, Dakotah and Wyoming
and the great republican gain in Kentucky,
it points with unerring finger to an over.
whslming republican victory in the Presi-
Dental election of 1872.
This triumph in California is not from
temporary and merely local causes. 1t
comes in anticipation Of and preparation
for the contest of next year. 1t shows
that the great republican heart is beating
strong and true to the cardinal principles
and purposes of the party. 1t marshals
the way to the grandest of republican
national victories. California republicans
have had their local divisions, but in the
presence of the vast national issues pend
ing and soon to be settled, disaffections
have ceased, union has been restored, and
the State wheels into the republican line
with magnificent majority for the time.
Republicans Of Maine let us answer the
notes Of triumph from California with
clarion peal of victory on Monday next.
The West has spoken, now for the East.
Let every republican put on his whole
fighting armor. Away with lukewarm-
ness. Strike boldly for the good cause.
Work like heroes. The enemy, caught
and exposed in his secret practices is de-
moralized. Finish the work on Monday
by q rousing vote for SIDNEY PERHAM,
and send kimball bowling to his mid
night associates in their dens OF darkness.

do not think overstate the facts of the
case when say that the real estate of Au-
gusta in 1871 as compared with 1860, is
doubled in value-calculated on the gold
basis. Show me dwelling house that sold
for $1,000 in 1860 and venture the assertion
that you cannot buy it for $500 to-day. Show
me store that was sold for 83OOOin 1860 and
its owner will ask you $1,000 to-day. And
speaking of stores reminds me Of the fact thai
nearly all the stores of 1860 were destroy ed
by fire in 1865, and are replaced by more
costly, more elegant and more convenien,
structures. And the great advance of which
I am speaking has been made in spite of that
disastrous fire and in spite of subsequen,
disastrous nood-which calamities conquered
and overcome-makes our advance all the
more honorable, telling and significant.

say this in the interest Of the road. which We
have always sustained. The republican party
of the State will make common cause with
the republicans of Augusta if this great wrong
is perpetrated upon the latter. The result Of
the election we do not fear. The republican
ticket will be elected, but We caution the
Railroad Company to beware how they ALLOW
their road to put on even the semblance Of
taking part in this matter. We speak to

Il "LEETLE" COMPARISON-TA TAKE
NOTICE.

Il 'LEE1LE" COMTAhlSON-1A AL
NOTICE.
The Washington correspondent of the Bos-
ton Advertiser makes the following camparis-
on: The published Tsmmany accounts show
that $780, 900 have been paid out ostensibly
for stationery for the use Of the county
officers, inclusive Of the city accounts, which
are yet concealed. During the same time the
cost of stationery for the use of the United
States Treasury department has been abou,
$4,000. The Treasury Departments employs
here 22OO persons, nearly all Of whom in their
regular labor constantly make use of the vari-
Gus articles of stationery. Another strong
comparison is suggested. The Treasury
building, with the exception of the United
States Capitol, is the largest and most costly
building in this country. A portion of one
front or facade will have to be rebuilt to cor
respond with the design of the others, but
the expense will be small. The total cost is
about $s,0oo,O 900 against $12, 900, 900 for the
uncompleted New York court house, which is
about one-sixth As large as the Treasury.
