gentleman from Ohio was correct in his other
sta.ement IN regard T. his comparison of ex-
penoi19les from year 70 year. The gentleman
from hentucky (Beck was correct in that re-
spect; and while he Dawes should be glad to
have IL the other way he insisted that the fig

Mr.. Butler of Massachusetts asked Mr..
Dawes how it was in reference % a statement
in MI. dawes speech some weeks AGO about
the Post Office clerk and express business, but
Mr. dawes declined to get into any controversy
with his colleague.
Mr.. Beck proceeded with his speech, slash
ing around and hitting here and there, nav de-
nOunclng the Sanborn contracts, the law for
which he said had been engineered by Mr..
Garfield, and then passing to the question Of
unexpende1 balances he charged that the off,
Gals were Withholding the $27 100000 of unex

out authority of Congress and against the law
He claimed that he had shown that $319, OOO,-
600 had been appropriated for the current
fiscal year and that the amount was an excess
of $4,000, 900 over the preceding year and
still larger snm over the year before that, and
that the expenditures had been increasing eyery

Mr.. Butler of Mass, said if he were convinc-
ed that the Secretary Of the Treasury had al

plain the circumstances and to argue that the
law had not been violated. Rewriting t. Mr..
Beck's intlmation about the Sanborn contracts,
he said ne did not know as to who engineered
the bill. 1t was the gentleman from Ohio,
(Garfield) that gentleman had not done badly
in that respect. He had seen in public prints
that he (Butler) had engineered it. They did
him homer over much. If he had engineered
that bill in the interest of Sanborn he would

An Unwho1esome Season.

The closing days of winter and the early days
of spring very trying to the feeble and sensi-
tive and are apt to affect unpleasantly even the
more robust and vigorous. Nothing can be more
uncongenial to the nerves more depressing
to the spirits than damp, chilling Winds fogs
and cold rains, and of such unwelcome visitors
we have a superabundance at this season. Com
mon prudence suggests, therefore, the propriety
OF fortifying the system agai nst these insidious
enemies of health and comfort, and the expert
ence of more than a quarter of a century points
to Hostetters Stomach Bitters as the all-sufi-
circumstances. An accession of vital strength
and energy is what is required to meet and
overcome the nhealthy elements now present
in the atmosphere This increase of vital power,
necessary TO meet the extraordinary drafts
which an inclement season makes upon the
system and the constitution, can be readily ac-
quired by taking from two to three doses of
Hostetter's Bitters daily during the winter and
spring months. The nature of this celebrated
restorative is well known to the public. 1t is
composed of an absolutely pure diffusive slim
ulant medica ted with the extracts and juices
of the most effective tonic, Alternative, anti
bilious and laxitive roots and herbs known to
medical science. To the combination of these
excellent ingredients in proportions suitable to
the exigencies of enfeebled, languid and dis
eased systems, the great tonic Alternative owes
its efficiency as a preventive and curative. A
course of 1t, commenced now, VIII prevent all
danger of fever and ague, rheumatism, or other
ailments arising from cold and damp peculiar
to the spring months, and also prove safe
guard against the attacks of dyspepsia and
liver complaint which SO frequently occur at

only that they may get drunk and make
the night hideous, they had better go
some where else. But we think the peo-
pie of the county, when they come to
trade, desire to come to a sober, decent
place.
The sixth and last reason is another
attempt to gull some simple temperance
man. But it is too thin and shallow.
The petition sets out with the assertion
that the signers are citizens of the vii
lage of Jackson, while a large portion of
them are guilty of falsehood and decep-
ton, as they know that they are not citi-
zens of the village. The committee of

NOTICE.

To ALL WHOM 1T MAY CoNCERN-The rumor
floating around through whisky sellers, and
some of the insane on the other hand, as to IN e
making my own liquor adulterating it, !
wish the public to understand, is base fraud
worked up bv the whisky interest of this place,
and some of our most crazy fanatics.
What whisky handle comes from first hands
pure, and sell 1t the same at the lowest mar
ket price. This is what raises the muss. They
aim to sell whisky at 100 to 800 per cent. profit
when sell at a white mans profit.
care nothing for the whole matter. AS to
the whisky interest, it does not bother me one
way the other; but L wish the public to I'M
derstand that am not that kind of man; what
do is on the square, and 1 don't want any OF
this sap-headed dictation in the matter. If
were practicing any such fraud on this COM
munity, it would be to their interest to make
it known, and put a stop to the matter.
Those interested parties stuff their custom
with this tale simply to crowd off their dog-leg
whisky out to them at two prices This say
without any drawback. w. F. HALE.

The petition to Council for the repeal
of the McConnellsville Ordinance, with
the signatures thereto, is curiosity. 1t
pretends to be in the interest of temper
ance, yet we think that every liquor
seller in Jackson has his name to it, and
nineteen out of every twenty who drink
to excess, have signed it.
The first reason assigned for the repeal
is, that it forces men to buy more ale,
beer and porter than they want and
thus they become intoxicated. Those
engaged in this business generally deny
that these drinks intoxicate. But here
they admit it. And then their premises
are false, because the ordinance does not
prevent the sale in as small quantities as
may be desired.
The second reason assigned is also q
falsehood. The more that il drunk the
more the seller can make, and drunken.
ness is just the thing he desires, SO that
his sales may be large.
The third reason assigned is funny
These men and boys think they are
wiser than the Supreme Court of the
State, which has held a similar ordinance
good.
Read the fourth reason assigned. 1t is
too silly and contemplate to be an
swered.
As to the fifth reason. If the people
of the county desire to come to towr

Ohior August p, 1874, Sarah Johnson Gilliland.
Mrs. Gilliland was born in Culpepper Co.,
Va, April "a, 1907. She moved to Jackson Co.,
Ohio, in 1914, and was married to John B. Gill;
land in 1920.
She was married the second time to Mr.. Sam
uel Gillland, 1880, who lived but two years.
She was the mother of eleven children, six
of whom are now living to mourn her death.
Mrs. Gilliland united with the Church more
than thirty years ago.
She gave evidence, during her life, that her
profession was from the heart. She was a care
full student of Gods word, and she was not of
those who behold their faces in glass and
straightway forget what manner of men they
are. She was found walking in the paths
which the Word of Life marks out.
She was a kind mother and neighbor; she
was truthful and honest.
She loved to be with good people, and she
loved to do good.
During the later months of her life she suf-
fered good deal from bad health hut she was
meek and patient.
She frequently spoke of the greater sufferings
of our Lord, and of many others more worthy
than herself
When it was apparent that she must die she
was not surprised or alarmed. She was as one
whose house was in readiness.
She expressed perfect willingness to enter
another world.
She had applied her heart unto wisdom, and
is to-day enjoying the fuller revelations of Gods
love.

The shoe trade of Portsmouth has
grown to immense proportions. Two
houses appear to do most of the trade,
year to more than half million dollars.
The house of Hibbs, Richardson & Co.,
appears to take the lead, and is doing an
immense business. Large sales have been
made by this house to the furnaces and
retail dealers in our county, and their
boots and shoes have always rendered
satisfaction.
Capt. Coleman Gillian, formerly of our
county, will occasionally call upon our
dealers. and offer them good bargains
from this house.

We attended the meeting of the Vii
lage Council last Thursday night, as it
was reported that an attempt would be
made to repeal the beer ordinance. The
scene was more ludicrous than anything
that will be performed by the clowns in
John Robinson's circus this week We
had intended TO write the thing up in full,
but we forbear. Suffice it to say that
there is no record of the proceedings to
warrant final action. A motion was
made to suspend the rules and put it
upon its passage. This required three
fourths majority. The yeas and nays
were called, when the following members
voted to suspend the rules: Chris F.
Bertsch, c.. c. James, George Pugh and
Ezekiel T. Jones. Nays, Isaac Brown and
T. s. Matthews. Not three-fourths. So
the matter must go over until the repeal
ing ordinance shall have been read three
times, at three several meetings.

with 20 to 25 beer glasses. Sometimes it
was furnished in the glasses, and some
times in tin measure He all the
time notified his customers that they
must not drink in the room. Sometimes
he told them that they must go off his
premises. They would go out at his back
door, drink in the back yard, and then
come in and return the glass, and other
vessel. The jury remained out all night,
but they could not agree. We learn that
they stood four for conviction and eight
