Isetrenehment and Business.

Economy in the Government means
profit 10 the citizen. 80 long as Ii takes
all surplus earnings TO pay taxes, the far
mer, manufacturer and merchant must
grow poor. Even the comparatively small
retrenchnent already effected has plain
~ favorable effect on the business out
look, not 50 much from the amount OF
the reduction already accomplished as
because it pledges the Government to a
continued cutting down Of expenditures
and taxation. The people will this year
vote for the party which seems the
most sincere in promises OF retrenchment,
reunion and reform, and will bear in
mind that sincere and final reunion Is
essential to rctrenchment. Sentimental
and general politics have this year AN
unusually Intimate connection with econ
Omy, for one of the greatest causes of ex-
penditure is the keeping of garrisOns in
the South, and the eXistance Ofapprehen-
sion OF disturbance there. When the
| South is once believed by all to be hearth
ly and finally in the Union, as much SO
a. Massachusetts or Illinois, one Of the
| greatest excuses for extravaganza will
have disappeared. Any thing that tends
to provoke disturbance in any section,
or keeping alive any lear Of it, is fatal Ia
: retrenchment.
| Reunion and retrenchment 90 hand IN
hand. II this election should result in
eXtinguishing the last embers Of the bit
terness OF the war, the consequent bless
ings would be exhibited as much Ia thu
substantial financial prosperity Of the PEG
pie as in the moral glory Of the nation.

The death struggle of the Republican
party will be made in Indiana. Money
is pouring into that state from every post
Office and government establishment in
the country. Republican speakers, i'm
ported from the East, West and South,
are spouting cut vile calumnies upon the
Democratic party from every stump in
the state. Never before, at so early a
stage of the campaign, has either party
made such show Of money and speak
ers as the Republican party of Indiana
are now making. But all this will avail
but little in the outcome. The sins OF
Radicalism are as scarlet, and all the
money Grants thieves ever stole from
the people will not rid them from
the eyes Of the honest Hoosiers
They have tried that party for sixteen
years. and year after year its iniquities
multiplied. Reform is now the demand
Of the hour, and the gallant HOosiers in
tend to inangurate it, in so far as Indians
is concerned, by the election of Blue

ing the electoral vote of the state to Til

"lO,THE POORINDIAN.

The Connecticut Peace society is in
arms. 1t Indignantly opposes transfer of
the Indian bureau to the war department,
and denounces. in very bitter terms. the
invasion of the Black Hills country. The
design of the expedition, say these peace
makers. was nothing more nor less than
to prevent any reduction of our then.
idle and useless army. Had these Con-
necticutt peace-prattlers stopped here
they would have excited but little atten-
ton; but they couldn't separate without
doing something deserving of contempt
and denunciation. That something is
their declaration that the massacre of
Custer and his brave comrades was a
Just retribution for the slaughter OF
friendly Indians. and our constant disre-
gard of treaty stipulations. Of all
American people the inhabitants of New
England know the least concerning the
character and habits of the Indians, AMI
the necessities that grow out of those
habits yet they are the first to denounce
our Indian policies and TO suggest
changes. The meeting after adopting q
resolution calling upon the president tc
| recall the army from the Indian terri
tory and to hereafter prohibit any armed
| interference with the aims and purposes
OF those harmless and much-abused crea
lures, adjourned. If Connecticut an'
Idaho could change places for year o
two these olive branch fellows would sins
a different song altogether.

DAM in the right side, under the

sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side sometimes the pain
is felt under the shoulder blade, and
it frequently extends to the top of
the shoulder, and is sometimes mis-
taken for rheumatism in the arm.
The stomach is affected with loss of
appetite and sickness the bowels in
general are CostiNe, sometimes alter
native with lax; the head is troubled
with pain, accompanied with dull,
heavy sensation in the back part.
There is generally considerable loss
ofmemory, accompanied with pain
ful sensation of having left undone
something which ought to have been
done. A slight, dry cough is some-
times an attendant. 4 The patient
complains WEAKNESS and debility;
he is easily startled, his feet are cold
or burning, and he complains of a
prickly sensation of the skin his
spirits are low; and although he is
satisfied that exercise would be bene-
fetal to him, vet he can scarcely
summon up fortitude enough to try
it, Ii fact, he distrusts every rem
