Three Points for Consideration.

During the past five years the VEGETINE has
been steadily working itself into public favor,
and those who were at first most increduious IN re-
gard to its merits are now its most ardent friends
and supporters.
There are three essential causes for those having
such a horror of patent medicines, changing their
opinion and lending their influence toward the ad-
yancement of VEGETINE. 1st-It is an honestly
prepared medicine from barks roots and herbs. ID
It honestly accomplishes all that is claimed for 1t,
without leaving any bad effects in the system. Sd
1t presents honest vouches in testimonials from hon
est well-known citizens, whose signatures are SUI

cine brought conspicuously before the public

POETRY.

Shipwrecked.

Shipwrecked.
Translated from, the German of Heinrich Heiae,
BY X. A. DAVIS.
Hope and love are persisted together,
Hope and love are DER;
AMI, like corpse from the angry sea,
l lie on the desolate shore.
Before me rocks the waste of waters,
Behind me lies sorrow and pain,
Above me drift the airs gray daughter,
The formless clouds of mist and ram,
Drawing slowly, in buckets of mist,
The water up from the sea;
Then casting it back, "a toilsome labor,
And useless, as my life is to me.
A sound of gulls; the waves low moaning,
Old memories come back to me,
Forgotten dreams and vanished pictures
Drift back with the sound of the sea.
There lives In the North woman
Around her head dark tresses CLEAN.
And forth from her pale, pure face,
Like dusky stars her large eyes beam.
Dye dusky stars! How often, entranced,
Did drink in your sweet inspiration,
And stand, enraptrred, filled
With passions deep intoxication!
Then smile of dove-like sweetness
Curved the lips in sweet repose,
There breathed words soft as the moonlight,
And tender as the fragrance of the -ose.
Cease your moaning, o ye waves!
Happiness and hope and love are Ger,
And 1, a desolate, shipwrecked man,
Sit on the dreary, barren shore.

MORE LIES.

Carefully prepared statements of the crop
prospects in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,. Missouri
and Iowa indicate that the increased number
OF acres sown and the quality Of the spring
wheat will bring the whole production in those
States up to an average crop.-Erchange
Don't believe . word Of it. Why
would farmers in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,
&c, plant such large additional guam
tity Of land to wheat when wheat is ruin
ously low!. It don't work that way in
this State. Even Dalrylnple puts in 640
acres Of corn.
There is q settled purpose to keep
down the price Of wheat. The facts are
suppressed or only leak out by accident
For instance. VIC we're told that Califor'
MIA had q fair crop Of wheat. Now comes
Captain Sullivan, lately Of Rosemount, Da'
kota county, and writes to the Farming
ton Press from California that the wheat
crop OF that State is almost total fail.
ure, except along the foggy coast, and
that starvation is staring the people in
the face. So it goes.
1t cannot be denied that winter wheat
in Ohio, Indiana, &C., is half ruined. and
now comes the cry that increased acreage
will bring it up; and that the quality o.
the spring wheat, just out Of the ground
will equalizc the loss.

HOW THE MORSE Law PROTECTS
THE PEOPLE.
The Mortified Standard, (Rep.) asks

this interesting question:
Why is it that wheat can Be shipped from
Castle Rock, to Minneapolis for 6K cents per
bushel, while ~ cents is charged from North
field, only six miles .favther7 We have been
told within the past few dayl that wheat was
carried to Minneapolis, from Castle Rock and
Pennington, for even less, in consideration Of
the -four being turned over to the same roal.
We care not VINO buys the wheat, We only care
to have such measures taken Is will bring
trade to our city, instead Of driving it away,
farmers want the best price they can get for
their grain, vet 1t is hardly probable that they
would pass right through town and carry their
loads six OF seven miles farther, if the mills at
Mortified would receive it It the same price.
The reason is, because you have the
Morse law! That is what protects you ;
don't you see it!
Think Of charging half IS much for
carrying bushel Of wheat from North.
field to Minneapolis, As it costs for car
rying ) bushel Of wheat from Minneapo'
lis to Chicago!
But then there is no reason why rail-
roads should be regulated THAT is the
old Pioneer doctrine, and We can elect
Fisher on that issue. Why can't We!

One Of our river towns, we are told,
has recently had remarkable case OF
naturalization which beats Katy King
out Of sight. A lady whose husband was
temporarily absent, became q medium,
and progressed so far in the occalt SCI
ence that at last she produced the visible
spirit of her grandmother and other long
departed friends, male and female. One
night, about eleven o'clock, some visitors
called At the door, whereupon one of the
materialized male spirits became strange
" alarmed, broke for the back door,
jumped the fence and streaked it across
lots, leaving the track Of q pair Of No. I
boots in . neighborlng manure heap.
Many who had up to that time resoluteIy
refused to believe in the return Of the
spirits of the departed, viewed the tracks
Of those boots the next day, and were
convinced, not only that spirits could ma
terialize, but that they made first-class
boots in the realms Of bliss. Verify

ANOTHER POOL.

All the railroad and steamboat men
met in St. Paul the other day to combine
against the farmers; and that sturdy de.
fender Of popular rights, the Pied Press.
thus .adroitly puts forth the results to
the people,:
The object Of the meeting was to talk over
transportation, particularly on wheat. The
river to Chicago and Milwaukee Is % cents per
hundred by river and rail, and Is cents all rail
For some tine past, wheat buyers have been
paving as high IS 81. 90 and $l.03 per bushel
for wheat at points along the river, and large
amounts are held in store. As the same wheat
is now quoted at only 81 .24@l % per bushel in
New York, it will be readily seen that the only
salvation Tor holders of wheat is in securing a
reduction Of rates in transportation, and it was
to talk over this matter that the conference
was held.
After pretty full discussion Of the matter
in all its bearings, the railroad and river men
came to the conclusion that the rates could not
be reduced. but will remain as before at 23@25c
to Chicago and Milwaukee, and b3@66c per
hundred to New York. This cuts of relief
from holders of wheat, and they will I've obliged
to suffer loss of from to 8 cents per bushel,
unless they can succeed in making better terms
by lake-their only hope now.
Before the meeting, the air was full Of
rumors of war between the great compel
ing lines; but they all agreed to agree
and keep up rates. And SO the price o.
wheat goes down, business suffers, and
the farmers are robbed.
"Their only hope now is by the Lake. :
But is not the Lake Superior Railroad il
the ring? And if it is not, will it not b
forced in?
Oh! that We had free canal, owned
by the people, to Lake Superior. How
soon would we break the back Of thes'
knavish combinations.

closer they make the corporation the bet
ter chance for themselves. They rode
the Democratic party into its grave in
the old days; and now, long ere Gahslel
has sounded his trumpet, they stand
ready to mount the shoulders of the
corpse as it comes up from its resting place.
Is there not danger that Gabriel may put
his trumpet in his pocket and adjourn the
resurrection sine die?
It is painful for us to speak unkindly of
any one, but from sense Of duty we ut
ter these words of warning. We call up
on the Democracy all over the State to
prevent rash and illiberal action upon the
part of part of their committee.
They should insist that Saint
Paul's selfish ring shall not run
the party to its ruin. There should be
full and fair and courteous conference
between all the elements Of the Opposi.
ton.
There are men, we know, who will say,
s'better be defeated than make conces-
sions; let us 60 down with our flag fy-
ing" &C.; But If mans principles are
worth anything he should desire to see
them triumphant. If he believes them
to be necessary to good government he
should make every honorable sacrifice to
put them in force.
For our part we care nothing for the
offices we ask no Office on any ticket ;
and il 5000 of those who voted for Nc
MILAN last fall, come forward with a
platform of correct principles, and pro-
pose to cooperate with US, We say meet
them half way, and make all reasonable
concessions to satisfy them. We want
that plank. We sink without it.
We do not say that Democrats should
sac. ifice their Democracy. Let them
hold Democratic Convention if they
choose; and let the Liberal or Anti.Mo.
nopoly element hold another; and then
see if as sensible men we cannot all agree
upon united action, either in whole or in
part.
If we cannot, then let every element
paddle it's own canoe; and Ben. Butler
grandfather take the hindmost. 1t is
difficult to hurt Christian or an Anti
Monopoiist. The same element that Of
old revolted from the Democracy and
created the Republican party is nov il
revolt from Republicanism. They die
not rebel in either case for the sake of Of
fee or plumber. And it won t hurt then
bit to remain in the minority for few
years to come.
And we have thousands of readers WHIT
are no longer Republicans, who will say
."let US 60 it alone at once; we want M
alliance with either Democrats or Repub
licans Let us make a new party" Bu'
success lies in coalition Of all the ele
ments of opposition. 1t may be that thu
issue next year will be IAN Empire or
Republic Let all good men work to
gether for harmony and peace. Persona
ambitions and the small tricks of clique
should be set aside.
Have we moderation and good sens
enough in the Opposition to organize vic

The Wright county Times (Rep.) says
Of Mr.. Fisher:
He is not the sort Of man to kindle the en-
thusiasm Of the masses nor would he draw
airy support from the Republican party except
such as might be influenced by dissatisfaction
with the Republican nomination. In short,
Mr.. Fisher would make good average Demo-

could not possibly be elected, except through
discussions in the Republican ranks. the inau-

says:
Now on the subject Of elevating our sign for

we have high respect for him, and If circum-
stances conspire to bring him for~ ard ~ y peo-
