s "A FELLOW entered p. Saloon downs
towp'yesterday and called for a cigar,
which was furnished him by the man
behind the bar. The customer then
asked him if he could change the cigar
for glass Of whisky, and was again
accommodated. He drank the whisky
with the suste Of saltwater sailor,
gave back the cigar, and started for
the door. The bar Keeper called. him
back, aud asked him TO pay for the
whisky. The man said, sDidnst i give

A LEGAL QuEsTIoN.-An Irishman
had sold his farm, and moved all his
personal property to one adjoining,
which he had purchased.
He claimed that stable manure was
personal property and net real estate,
and he commenced moving the same.
A law suit ensued. and the court de-
cided against him. His final remarks
to the Judge, after the jury had found
. verdict against him, were as fol-
lows;- ~ ais
.Mr. Judge, . horse and cow are
personal property
Yes answered the Judge.
'Mr. Judge, corn, oats, hay, etc, are
personal propertyr
Yes responded the Judge.
sThen,, says Pat, how in the divil
can personal property eat personal
property and produce real estate ?"

perimented in his private practice for twenty
years to produce a com bipation that would have
the properties of Castor Oil without its uu-
pleasant taste and gripping effect
His preparation was sent for near and far,
till finally he gave it the name of Castoria. and
put it up for sale. 1t is very wonderful in its
effects, particularly with the disordered stom-
achs and bowels of children. 1t assiInilates
the food, cures sour stomach and wind cholic.

be relied upon i'll Group, sfast afA A.ifH
As pleasant, effective and perfectly safe
cathartic remedy 1t is superior to Castor Oil
Cortli.ls and Syrnps. 1t does not contain alco-
liol and is adaptedfto any age.

FoUR innocent men have just been
pardoned out of the Oregon State
prison after spending three years
there on life sentence. In 1928 stage
was stopped in lonely place by four
masked men, who took from it gold
dust worth - 200. The nearest house
was the residence Of the four men
who were afterward wrongfully con-
victed. Footprints were found lead
ing from the place of the robbery to
that house, and it was also ascertained
that the men had been out late on the
night of the crime. There was no
other indication of their guilt; but
the public sentiment was very strong
against robbers, and no more convince
ing facts were demanded. A mob vis-
tied the house, caught one of the men.
and scared him with threats of hang
ingSfnto saying that he and the others
were gSiIfy. The ehhe4 confession
would not have saved his life, But the
arrival of An officer did, and then he
declared the untruthfulness OF his
statement. The four were tried and
hurriedly convicted, and sentenced for
life, although fhe driver OF sthe stase
swore to an opinion that they were
not the robbers, for which testimony
he narrowly escaped being lyhched as
an accomplice. Recently the real
criminals were detected.

Is MONTY SCARCEl

We answer, No! There is plenty
of money in the country. Statistics
show that there are nearly two hun
dred millions of currency in bank
vaults, not in circulation? Why ?
Because there is no one to use it.
Why? Because no one has anything
to sell to call it forth. Suppose we
had ten times rs much currency,
would it be any plentier? No! Be-
cause you must have some saleable
commodity or you cannot get money,
no difference how plenty it is. Please
bear this in mind, that money is
plenty if you only have some COM
modify that has marketable value,
to call it forth. There is little
cramp in this section just now on ac-
count of nearl y the whole cattle crop
being still on hands instead Of being
marketed. Another reason, we did
not have very good crops last year,
and had but little to sell, and in many
cases our farmer fed all their grain
to their own cattle -, have them yet.
Probably quarter OF million dol
lars would not more than cover the
unsold cattle crop in this county.
That money to a large extent is
drawn from our banks, and hence
makes loans close. The cattle are
doing well, and nearly every holder
will realize profit, so that all in all,
times are really anything but hard
hereabouts. We have had no great
crashes, no breakups, no particular
stringency, and there need be none
if people aoho hare the money IN their
pockets piH pay their debts. See how
trade is interlinked. A has $50 in
his pocket, and owes B that amount
b owes G the same; G owes D; ID.
owes Il, and Il owes +. If A will on
ly pay his just debt with the money
in his pocket, he will relieve half a
dozen who think they are are hard
pressed because they cannot collect
what is due them topay those they
owe. If you are one of. the AS, do
your part to make times easy.

Tilden cannot be pure and a re-
former if he was Boss Tweed's pal
and partner. Any one acknowledges
this, Now to the facts: "From
1865 until after the Tammany Ring
had been overthrow, Samuel ]. Til
den was Chairman of the Democratic
State Committee. 1t devolved upon
the Chairman to appoint the Execu-
tive Committee, which had the actual
management of the campaigns. AS
such Chairman, Tilden appointed
Tweed member of the Executive
Committee, and Tilden and Tweed
were associated together on the COM
mittee for years. One of the years
when Tilden appointed Tweed was
1868, when he sent out his famous
circular asking immediate returns to
Tweed in order to prepare the way
for election frauds. Is it conceiva-
BILE that Tilden could appoint Tweed
upon the Executive Committee, and
serve with him on 1t, without adyis
ing and cooperating with him n
And yet Tilden says he will Gre
form" the country. He will do il
as Boss Tweed reformed New York.

The Democrats have had q terrible
time over Gen. Tuttle's conversion TO
Republicanism, and tried by Islander
and otherwise to offset it, without
effect, and at last they trotted out d.
0. Finch, one of the smartest men in
the party, to try reply to Tuttle.
He addressed the Democratic club at
Des Moines last Thursday night, and
instead Of meeting the issues like a
man, he never mentioned a single one
of Tuttle's points, but attempted to
ridicule the Generals speech, but he
found ridiculing truth, uphill work
Finch's speech was certainly tn c
weakest effort we ever saw, to come
from n smart man. The fact is, Tut
tie has overwhelmed them, and they
can only cry like little boy "you'ro
another" Poor Democracy.

Is THE REPUBLICAN PARTY EN-
TRAVAGANT!

Has the Republican party squan-
dered the peoples money? We an
swer, No! Was the country ever
moro prosperous? Surely not Has
the Republican party not surely and
gradually reduced taxation Of all
kinds since 1865? and yet with great
ly decreased revenues has it not grad
ually paid the debt until over $780,
100000 has been paid and an annual
saving in interest thus made of over
S40,000,0OO. Has its governmental
expenses been greater than other
administrations No. Take the last
Democratic administration, that Of
James Buchanan, and the expenses
were S63, O25,7ss.9s in gold. Deduct
the extraordinary expenses caused
by the Democratic rebellion and the
expenses for 1875, were, in gold,
STA, 02s, 6Se.O9, and this with thirteen
millions more inhabitants thanin 1860.
The average expenditure per head
was $1.95 in 1860, and only $1.60 in
1875. And now as to the losses by
defalcations. By the hue and cry
the death-cry of Democracy one
would suppose that the government
had been stolen blind What are
facts? Under Jackson the per cent. of
loss was Sl0.55 on every $1,000 paid
out under Van Buren, S2l.l5 (the
largest); Harrison SlO.37, and SO on
down to Buchanan S6.9S, Lincoln
$1.4l, and Grants first term forty
cents; and his second term taoenty
cents. Thus the loss was fifty times as
great under Jackson as under Grants
present term. The fact of the bust
ness is, the cry of corruption is all
the stock in trade that Democrats
have, and they use it for all they can,
and without regard to figures, but
when you come down TO facts, the
government has lost less under Grant than
anu other President.

Der Democrat, the German Demo
cratic paper of Davenport rcpudiates

that they skip the school question,

for fear of the Irish Catholic vote. 1t
