SENSIBLE LETTER FROM A GERMAN

We clip the following sound and
sensible letter from . German to the
Commonwealth.
I desire to make few remarks
through the columns of your paper
in regard to an article that appear
ed in the Kansas Stats ZejtUng OF
February I7Lh. The writer of said
article tries very hard to make out
that I, being German, have utter.
ly disgraced my nationality by vot-
ing for the liquor law. He says
that "speak German, but do not
feel or think So" thereby meaning,
I suppose, that every true German
must of necessity be opposed to
every thing which tends to regu-
late the liquor traffic, aud promote
order and morality. Against this
assumption, most emphatisally
protest; for / know, and everybody
who is impartial knows, that there
is, and especially among farmers, 8
large proportion of Germans who
are in favor of liquor law, only
they are not as noisy - those who
are opposed to il. He says that ]
live near Abeline, where Wild Bill
has to keep order. Now why does
it require Will Bill to keep order
in Abeline? L. il not because there
10 an unlimited number Of dram.
shops there with all the bad eharac-
ters who naturally follow such 9
lies in selling as much Of the adult
terated and poisonus liquor as pos
sible, without regard to results 2
Would the numerous stories of men
being killed in . drunken row be
heard so often, If rum.sellers were
in measure held responsible for
the acts of drunken men7 I knew
that ali peace and order loving cit.
izens of Abeiine and vicinity will
suppress drunkenness. Again, he
says that claim TO be friend Of
republican liberty, and vote for Coz
ercive regulations Of which even
Russians would be ashamed. Well,
pity bis conception Of republican
liberty. According to my opinion
all laws which tend to improve ana
promote the intellectual and moral
welfare Of . people arc In harmony
with true republican principles.
If all coerciYe and prohibition
principles are Anti-republican, then
thieves, gamblers and swindlers
who are restrained by our laws
might raise that cry, because the
laws interfere with their business.
In regard to my expressions against
the Law, and then voting for It, he
rather stretches the truth. I haYe
salt, and still say, that I am oppos-
ed TO prohibition law, but never
was against any proper and necee.
sary regulations. Finally, he I'd.
monishes the citizens Of Dickinson
county TO be careful in the future
who they send TO the Legislature, II
they don't want to loose their nber.
ties. IwouId advise him to move
there himself and become the cham
pion of their liberty. He would
certainly be appreciated.

A SKEPTICAL RAILROAD NAN CON.
VERIFIED.

There was q railroad man in
Mauch Chunk, Pa, q few days ago,
with q patent airbrake for railroad
cars, for sale. He claimed that it
would stop Q train going at the
highest rate of speed in half its own
length. There was q certain rail-
road man up there who treated this
suggestion with scorn, and said he
would wager large sums that the
airbrake wouldn't stop q train any
quicker than any other brake. So
he borrowed the continuance and
fixed it on an open car on the
Switchback railroad, and went up
to the top of Mount Pisgah to get 9
fair start. He let her come down
the iuclined plane for while until
she began to move along at the rate
of sixty miles an hour, and then he
suddenly placed his. foot on the
brake and put it on with full pow
er. One minute later the eye of
any solitary traveller passing
through those wilds might have OBJ
served ca star ding perfectly still
on the track and q railroad man

berry bushes ai,I aadeFbrush head

home on q stretcher, and now thai

availability of the air-brake, but he

FIeUREs.-Here are q few impor-
tant facts that fell from the lids of
General Garfield in Congress the
other day: 'sThe movement of our
public debt may be thus snmnarily
stated: Commencing with January
1, 1769, we had q debt of SIS, CO.,
600. 1t took twenty-one years TO
reduce its bulk to 81, 100000, the
figure which it reached in 1872.
The war with England raised il to
$127, O00, 900, where it stood in 1916.
IL took twenty years more to pay it
OF. The war with Mexico left rs
with debt of $6S, 900, and II
took ten years to reduce it to $26,-
500, OO0, the lowest point it has been
readhed since 1916. The debt of
our late war reached its stupendous
maximum on July /, 1866. In the
six and half years that have since
elapsed we have reduced il by the
sum of S556, SOC, 900, which is q re-
ductiOn of twenty and q half per
cent. of its whole amount. During
that time We have also reduced the
amount of annual interest on the
debt by 81, 500, 600.

color, Icitb the gloss and freshness Of
youth. Thin hair is thickened, fall
ing hair checked, and badness often,
though not always, cured by its
use. Nothing can restore the hair
where the follicles are destroyed, or
the glands atrophied and decayed;
but such as remain can be saved by
this application, and stimulated into
activity, so that o new growth of
hair is produced. Instead of fouling
the hair with a pasty sediment, it
will keep it clean and vigorous. Its
occasional use will present the hair
from turning gray or falling of,
and consequently prevent badness.
The restoration of vitality it gives
to the scalp arrests and prevents
the formation of dandruff, which il
often so uncleanly and offensive.
Free from those deleterious sub
stances which make some prepara-
tons dangerous, and injurious to the
hair, the Vigor can only benefit, but
not harm it. If wanted merely for
a HAIR DRESSING, nothing else
can be found so desirable. Contain
ing neither oil nor dye, it does not
soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich,
glossy lustre, and grateful perfume.
