He imagines that the Republican party
will become so unendurably profligate and
odious that the country viii accept res
toration of the Democracy as the lesser
evil But even this theory, discreditable
rs it is TO the character Of the Democracy,
will, probably, never be realized. The
Republican party will, indeed, become
unexpectedly corrupt and unpopular
1T has become nearly so al
ready; but the violent and rev.
dictionary popular effort that oyerthrows

country is not bound to accept the Democ-
racy as the memorable alternative TO Re

to be the successor of Republcanism when
the latter shall be deposed. The capaci.
ties and resources of the popular will are
not 10 be restricted TO any such narrow lin

laid before the Republican ascendency is
overthrow. The dislodgment of the pres
ent dominant party will be the great diff
culty-greater than some persons imagine;
but, that done, what follows will be CON-
paratively easy. IL is prepOsterous to
imagine that the people will be baffied by
the lesser task after accomplishing the
greater--that, after having got rid Of Re
publican rules, they will have to accept 8
Democratic restoration. A party so fal
gone in decay as to be Incapable of rescue
ing its leaders, many of them statesmen
of admitted ability and patriotism, from
rusting obscurity, and Of persuading th
country to accept acceptable measures a

Reasons why they Only
should be Used!

THEIR REPUTATION Is ESTABLISHED.
Thousands Of testimonials have been received,
showing that these POWDERS have performed
miracles in curing cases Of long standing, many of
them considered hopeless.
THERE Is NO RISK IN TAKING THEN
They contain nothing injurious, and, therefore,
none OF the lingering diseases often the
result Of the many nostrums Of the day Physicians
recommended them a. superior to Quinine or any
other known remedy, for they leave the system in
healthy state, and the patient beyond the probabi

helpless obscurity In which they are living,
and substituted for an equal number Of in

as tn that mutilated and Ineffective rem

opinion. Its power Is gone. 1t is shad-
ow-a tradition, destitute Of the rugged vi

blunders, extravaganza and excuses that

natural for old Democrats who have vo-

they resolutely forget certain facts which
