The State Reform Club will hold its Annual Con-
vention in Augusta, at Meonian Hall on THURS.
DAY, FE BRUARY 18th, at O'Clock P. NJ,
for the PURPOSE of perfecting its organization and Of
taking such measures may be deemed necessary to
carry out and complete as far as possible the work
which it has successfully begun viz: to the
fallen, to convert the moderate drinker, the wine
drinker and the cider drnker to the principle of to-
tai abstinence from all that intoxcate, to reform
all men who touch taste handle any kind of intox-
icating drinks, and lastly to awaken new interest
in the old temperance in the State to the impor-
tance of renewed moral effort to suppress the evils OF
intemperance.
1t is to be hoped that every Club in the State Will
send five delegates Distinguished speakers will ad-
dress the meeting in the evening.
AL temperance men are cordially invited to pepres-
ent and take part in our deliberation.

Board of Agriculture,

We referred in the last Mirror to the re-
moval of Mr.. Goodale from the position OF
Secretary of this Board, which he has filled
so long and so ably. We can learn of no bet
ter reasons for his removal, than are found in
the fact that another man avanted his place !;
or perhaps indeed that more than one man
had personal interest in causing the change
to be made. There are few intelligent men,
we believe, who will think that the new in
cumbent is superior to Mr.. Goodale, or equal
to him, in many of the leading qualities that
are needed in that important Office. The cir
cumstances, too, under which the election
was made are freely spoken of as scandalous.
They certainly appear to be such as to con-
firm the suspicion that the perpetrators of this
deed were well aware that it was not an act
to be justified upon grounds of public policy.
1t does not lie directly in our line to follow
this matter up; or to suggest what remedy
might now be had for the mischief done.
But we will make this observation, that the
present time, when the attention of the peo-
pie is being generally directed to the need of
reform in the civil service-to the desirable
ness of putting and keeping the best men in
places of public responsibility hardly be
well chosen for such proceeding as this we
are now commenting upon. It rests with
the farmers Of Maine, whose interests the
late Secretary has so faithfully served, to de-
termine in their good Judgment with what
patience his displacement, under such circum-
stances, should be borne.-Christidn Mirror.

IT is said that the members of the cabinet
who were first opposed to the Civil Service
rules, have, since they have seen the result as
so far applied in the departments, expressed
their cordial approval of the plan. 1t is fur
ther stated that the attitude of Congress to-
wards the measure has been greatly changed
since December, from the fact that the Presi-
dent is so earnest in the enforcement of the
reform.

The public will be glad to know that the
new syndicate will experience very little diff
ficulty in negotiating the $500, 900 of five
per cent. bonds; but newspaper publishers
are little surprised that the wealthy bank

Government should undertake to get their
advertising done without expense through
the associated press.

MONDAY was not a good day in Congress
for opening avenues to the treasury or for
corporations to seize valuable sections of the
public domain. The best, and probably de-
serving project, the Australian steamship SUBJ
silly, was defeated in the Senate. In the
House, the former action of that body on the
Goat Island job was reversed to the great dis
gust of Mr.. Sargent and the Pacific railroad
lobby. The House also followed Mr.. Hale in
putting the cotton tax job in its premature
grave by refusing to assign day for the con-
sideration of the matter. The country at
large will rejoice at such action and will be
pleased with several ''blue Mondays if Con-
gress can hang out so good washing in con-
sequence.

CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED

Sometimes medicines that will stop cough win Of

liver stops the circulation Of the BLOOD hemorrhage

organs that caused the cough.
Liver complaint and dyspepsia are the causes OF
two-thilds of the cases Of consumption. Many are
now complaining with dull pain in the side, the bow
els sometimes costive and sometimes loose tongue
coated, pain in the shoulder blade feeling sometimes
very restless, and at other times drowsy; the food
that is AIKEN lies heavily the stomach accompan-
ed with acidity and belching of wind. These symp-
toms usually originate from disordercd condition of
the stomach torpid liver. Persons SO affected if
they take two heavy colds, and if the cough in
these cases be suddenly stopped, the lungs yer and
stomach clog, and remain torpid and inactive, and
before the patient is of his situation the lungs
mass of sores, and liberated, and death is the
inevitable result.
Schencks Pulmonic Syrup is an expectorant which
does not contain any opium, nor anything calculated
to check cough suddenly.
Schenck's Seaweed tonic dsst the food, mixes
with the gastric juice of the sto ach, dgests easily

1T Is the popular thing at Augusta to rep
resent the vigorous young county of Aroos-
took as chronic pauper and constant beg
gar. Consequently every session for the past
half dozen years the Clerk of the House has
been ordered to report the appropriations
called for to aid roads and schools therein.
OF late these sums have been very small and
frequently exceeded by the amounts that have
been voted to other counties for similar pur-
poses. If these appropriations we-e so much
money out of the treasury, it would be a WISE
investment for the State, for in spite OF the
severe draft of the war that county increased
largely in population and wealth the last
decade. But the appropriations are not
charities, If the county had been credited
with the cash value of all lands therein that
have been donated to colleges, and for that
which has been sold and the money paid into
the treasury, there wonld be found to be a
large sum yet due the new county. 1t is
true that the county has its small land grab
bers like every other, but we protest against
this hardy and vigorous county being annual
ly insulted as beggar-so long as it has con-
tributed to the State treasury ten dollars
where it has received one.
