God is just and His justice will not

our political history seems to make
these considerations of peculiar impOr-

the one hand there is the regular army
of Republicans, fat with spoils-its
Bread and Butter brigade in the van,
blowing and footing about the sacred

the old hungry hacks of the great Dem
ocratic party forgetting nothing old,
learning nothing new,-trying to keep
up the old party discipline on dead and

The P. & . R. R.--West.

\ trip over the i. \ o. Railroad t.
Ilardwick on "Wednesday gave us Il
pretty good idea of this portion OF {;
road which has figured So largely III the
Montpelier newspapers of late. and
which Is destined. We think. to he one
of the grandc>t and most successful rail
roads III New England.
The latrncss of the season before the
track was laid, together with the sever
itN of the winter, made it impossible
to ballast and true up the track. oI
make bitches and drains beside the
dump for surface water. until this spring.
Since the frost came ont of the ground.
Il large force has been kept buSily en-
gagged i'll putting the road-bcd i'll the
best condition possible for Il new road.
although railroads. like wine. need age.
and the settling process of one or two
seasons l. necessary To Il perfect track.
The road for the first fifteen miles west
of st. JohnshurH is what engineers and
railroad men call Il good track. and
seems as smooth as old roads even. The
remaining twenty miles are being put
i'll equally good condition us fast as two
large gangs of hands and two gravel
trains can do it. Nor is this part of the
road i'll Il bad condition now. One-halt
the travelling public would not know

condition as the PaSslmpsic. or amy
other road which has age in its favor
As regards the railroad from St Johns
bury To llardwick as il route for the
tourist and lover of nature. we are told
by those who know, that there is not its
equal for scenery in all New England
and we are certainly prepared to be
lleve it. We have passed over the ia

are sure the public would like to know

OLD THINGS HAVE PASSED AwAY.-This is at
least true of the old method of treating the long
abused and much abused human body. 1t is no
longer considered wise to put patient to the
torture in order to cure him of disease in
which pain is already undermining the energies
of his sy stem. True science ranges Itself on the
side of nature and endeavors to assist her In her
fight against disease. This is the province OF
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the most approved
tonic ever advertised in this country. IL may
be recommended as n fall medicine, par excel
lence for 1t Is in the fall that billiousness dys
pepsia and malarious fever are especially preva-
ent. The Frame exhausted by the heats of
summer, is relaxed and feeble at its close, and
requires, we may say demands artificial assist
ance. Afford II that assistance in occasional
doses of Hostetters Stomach Bitters, and the
evils referred to may be escaped. Throughout
the far West, and on the steaming alluvial OF
the Southern rivers all the varieties of perodi-
cal fever are probably rife to-day. Hala course
of Hostetters Btters been commenced by the
sufferers a month ago, i.e., before the unhealthy
season set in, ssven. .eights of them would in all
probability be in their usual health at the pres
ent time. So much for not keeping in the house
and using daily, the best safeguard against epi-
demic and epidemic fevers.
As fiocks of impostors and imitatOrs are try
ing to follow in the wake of the great American
remedy, therefore be sure that the article you
buy is genuine aud verified by the proper trade
marks. The true article can only be obtained
in bottles. Beware of the spurious bitters sold
by the gallon or in Reg.

COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT BLOOMSBURY COUNTY, PA

OUR COUNTY FAIR.-The usual
crowd gathered here last week, and the
receipts were about S2sOO. The manage.
ment was excellent, and no accidents
occurred. SO Ear as display is concerned
it was miserable farce. With two or
three exceptions the articles were not
worth looking at. Ina large agricultur-
al County like ours there is no excuse
for not having grand display; but two
causes operate against 1t. First, there
are no suitable buildings to provide
against the weather or against theft
Secondly, the premiums are so ridicu-
lously small that they do not pay the
cost of moving articles to and from the
grounds. Less money on horse jockeys,
and more TO the farmers and mechanics
would be better policy. And now about
the funds of the Association. We are
told that 81 900 have been cleared.

what becomes of the money; and we

matter.
