and should regard the institution of any such
system as ruinously injurious to the morale
of the people. The famine has been a cam-
paign, not a question of military estimates, and
it has been fought by ourselves from the first,
by the Indian Government ever since Sir R.
Temples Report, and by the Tory Cabinet
since it assumed power, as a campaign, with an
entire disregard of anything except the victory,
now most probable, though even now not
securely or fully attained. If victory has cost
a million too much, be it so,-we are sorry for
the million. But without the million victory
was absolutely unattainabIe, and defeat would
have cost three times as many lives. AS for
those who assert even now, with all official
information before them, that there is no Fa-
mine, we have of course no arguments to offer
them which they could understand, for even if
brayed in a mortar, nothing could be expected
out of them.

weeks past. and it i time that tn. bub
bic was pricked. 1t has beer laboring
to prove that Senator Carpenter is, and
IS to be, the only Republican candidate
for Senator. Of course it has an OBJ
lect IN coming this fabrication, because
1t percelves the doom Of the Taylor
administration, and is trying to compel
all OF the Republicans of the State 70
commit themselves TO only one man II
order to clay ont" that administration.
1t IS not known that Senator Car
penter will be candidate for re-elec
ton. After looking over the whole
ground when he returns home, he may
conclude not to enter the canvass at
all; but, in any event, SO far from be-
ing the only candidate, it Is quite Ger
tam that there will be so many that the
Republlcah press of the State will con-
slider It iudici6us not to take sides with
any of them, but to elect as many Re-
publican members to the Legislature
as possible, leaving their views on the
Senatorship to be subsequently, de-
termined. That is the undoubted
policy of the Republican party of
Wisconsin, and to which it will adhere.
Z. {. Washburn, an honest. capa-
BILE, and faithful executive, will doubt
less have many supporters for the Sen
atorship. Otis II. Waldo, a very able
lawyer, an influential Republican and
a man of practical executive ability,
will have strong corps of friends.
Luther S Dixon, onr popular and esti-
mable ex-Chief Justice, has many
warmly attached supporters. PhiIetus
Sawyer, of Oshkosh, if he does not re-
turn to the House, may, in certain
contingency, become candidate
John Nazro. one OF the most eminent
and honored merchants of the North
west, and citizen in every relation,
without spot or blemish, has host of
! friends
John T. Potter of Walworth, who is
everywhere known as an honest man,
may be brought forward by the Repub-
iiSdtio VI OuC Vi CiLS COuullSS
of the State.
j. Allen Barber, of Grant, has a
strong following in the western part of
the State, and he may become a very
prominent candidate. We might cite
other names to show the utter absurd
ity of the Ncacs' misrepresentation,
that Senator Carpenter viii be the sole
candidate.
The currency question will naturally
divide the voters, and that will give
rise to candidates, who concur with the
President in his financial views, and
these have a strong footbold in the
minds of those persons who believe
that the people must meet this fairly
and squarely as the great issue on
which members Of Congress are to be
| chosen. - Wisconsin.

Senator Carpenter and the next

Senator Carpenter has been Invited
by his old Rock county friends. among
whom he spent the earlier years Of his
professional life, to deliver the Grafton
at GAINESVILLE on the Fourth of July.
This invitation has been rendered with
out distinction of party, and the News.
the Taylor organ, is so unhappy over
the fact that men of all parties should
offer this invitation that it exclaims in
the height of it's imaginative fancy:
THIS ACT makes Senator Carpen-
ter Enthusiastically the candidate, and
the SOLE CANDIDATE, Of the Re,
publican party in this State for United
States Senator. At the bound which
he will then make into the arena. ALL

The New Currency Bill.

The redistribution Of the prese ut
volume of national bank currency.
contemplated By this bill, withdraws
$50. eco, O00 from the present alIot-
ment Of the eastern States and assigns
It to the West and South. The reds
tribution is made in accordance with
the recommendation of Comptroller
Knox, and IS based upon the tables
prepared by him. We are Informed
that under it, the banks of New York
will lose but 1900, 900 Of their pres
ent quota Of circulation while the
Baltimore banks viii lose SG,0O0,O00
and the remainder, SAT 100000. IS
withdrawn from New England banks
We can not see that the business Of
The East is to suffer from this edualiz-
alton of the distribution. The curren-
cy will continue, as heretofore. to seek
the channels where it is most needed.
The third leading proposition of the
bill is that abolishing reserves. The
arrangement for a five per cent. reserve,
TO be kept at the Treasury for the pur-
pose of sedeeming bank notes is retain
ed, together with the present reserve
for the security Of depositors. 1t is
estimated that this abolition Of re-
serves will release from tide vaults and
send into circulation some $1,000, 900
of greenbacks. The bill thus provides
for considerable more money, without
increasing the real amount Of the le-
gal tenders. This feature, like the
one last alluded to, commcuds the
measure to western congressman. 1t
is thought, however, that the proposed
redistribution may have tendency
towards contraction.

hair is thickened, falling hair checked,

the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands strophied and

saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that q new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
OF toullng the hair with pasty sedi-
ment, 1t will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent 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 forms-
ton of dandruff, which is often SO un-
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious 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.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
Iustre, and grateful perfume.
