SCHENCK's PULMONIC SYRUP,

follows and in ctthey clog the action of the very
organs that caused the cough,
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia are the causes
of TWO thirds of the cases of Consumption. Many
persons cOmplain of a dull pain in the side,
stipatiOn coated tongue, pain in the shoulderblade
feelings of Growsiness and restessness, the food,
lying heavily the stomach, accompanied with
acidity and bclching up of wind.
These symptoms usually originated from disor-
dered CONDITION of the stomach or torpid liver.
Persons so affected, II they take one two heavy
colds and if the congh in these cases be suddenly
checked, will find the stomach and liver clOgged,
remaining torpid, and inactive and almost before
they are aware the lungs are mass OF sores, and
liberated, the re- ult of which is death.
Schenck's PulmOnic Syrup is an expectorant which
does not contain opium or anything calculated to
| check q cough suddenly.
| Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic dissolves the food

| digestion and creates ravenOus appetite.

in vetoiDg an absolutely necessary appro-
priation bill, but in signing it he deemed
it his duty to show where the response
bility belonged for whatever embarrass-
ment might arise in the public service.
Mr.. Randall said he had no objection to
the president putting in as many ohjec-
tions as he saw ft, if he would only sign
the bills reducing the expenses of the gov
ernment and assist the house in its great
effort in that direction. The president IN
some of his statements shows a lack OF in

whatever For one, | accept the issue

portunity of judging between his dictum
and the action of both branches of congress,
after close examination.

The Pleasant Valley Road.

The opening of this important road
seems to meet with opposition at every
turn. From its inception its opening has
been retarded by certain clique, whose
ouly ground for opposition appears to be
personal spite. There is no measure of
its nature that would benefit the public as
much as this new road and although
preparation for the c0nsummatl0n OF the
project has frequently been attempted,
yet it has always been opposed on some
fiimsy preteXt or other until it begins to
look as if this much needed public lm
provement would fail entirely. The ARGUS
has advocated the opening OF this new
avenue to the farming country OF the
Dosha, and its many advantages have frou'
time to time been clearly explained. The
history Of this case is so we'll known to
| business men and others as to need nc
further explanation. 1t the highway com
missioners ever intend TO open this road
if the good of the public is to be the para
mount consideration, let the new Pleasant
Valley road become a fact If, on Tho
other hand, the interests Of private cliques
actuated by personal envy, are to govern
and control the matter, the sooner
the board OF township commits
sioners throw aside the cloal
aud reveal fits true standing th
sooner the public will understand tL'
reason for delay At present no excus
exists whv the road should not be opene,
at once 1t is a public necessity, its open
ing would greatly enhance the Commercial
interests Of Moline, and unless its consum
nation is effected. aud that at once, tb
people will be judges OF the real reaso
. why the project has been defeated. Their
is but one way to settle it satisfactorily t
the public, and that is to open the road {

We do not believe that anybody is
suffering from contraction. A great
many peopleare suffering, weareawage,
but we do not know of any one who
is suffering from the contraction ofths
currency. We know Of plenty who
have borrowed more than they can
pay, because there has been n redund-
ancy Of currency. We hear Of many
who have spent more than they have
earned, because in redundant times it
was the fashion. We have heard Of
those who have lived On great expeeta-
tions and over valuation Of lots, stocks
and railroad bonds suddenly risen la
value or put out on himsy credit We
hear of many mill-ownerB and other
manufacturers who can not employ
their invested capital at profit, simply
because so many people are trying to
make up the deficits resulting from
their previous extravagance by strict
retrenchment of expenditure. We
hear Of many laborers who are thrown
out of employment by the same cause.
But In all these classes, from the mil
lionaire bankrupt to the Indiana farm
er or the mill operative struggling TO
keep body and soul together, we fail 10
discern the person with a valuable
collateral who cannot borrow ub0n il
all the currency which il is good for,
and at lower rate Of interest than at
any previous time in the past fifteen
years.-Sprinafeld Republicda.

The New York Sun has been the
great and constant truth-teIler about
Grants administration, and the fol-
lowing, from the Sun Of Saturday, is
no doubt an exact statement Of facts;
"All the personal iutimntes and sur
roundings of Grant are hostile to Bris-
tow. This feeling has been SO intensi-
fed by the Presidential question that
an open rupture has often been immi-
nent. Bristow is charged secretly and
openly by these peculiar friends with
having pursued a given policy and
prompted investigations in order 20
promote his own ambition, and 70 dam
age the administration. 1t was not
difficult to make Grant believe these
charges, or accept any theory that
would seemingly relieve him from the
load Of odium resting upon the ad-
ministration. Hence, he has come to
regard Bristow as an enemy, and has
tolerated him in the Treasury merely
because to dismiss him would be apt
to help more than to harm him before
the country. But he has plainly-sig-
nified that his company was not want
ed, and that his resignation would be
gladly accepted" )"
