II The Topeka Commonwealth says that the
Republicans of Kansas are united this year, and
propose to run the machine themselves, and not
be nosed around by scheming ''leaders." This is

throughout the land that the Kansas delegation
to the National Convention were the personal
property of one of those very "schemng leaders"

n Our Hiawatha correspondent, writing on
the question, of the Judgeship, propouuds a CO.
nundrum that We can't answer. He asks us
what makes us say that it is honest in Judge
Hubbard to leave out or add to a bill of excep-
tions that which will render false presentation
of the case before the Supreme Court. As we
have never said any such thing, or intimated it,
nor said that which could possibly be construed
into such meaning, we are unable to tell What

EV The Democratic Congress is in fair way
to get sick of its investigations, and of letting in
every blackmailer and thief to befoul the char
acter of public men. 1t is beginning to come
home to them. Some of these fellows have start
ed a scandal against Speaker Kerr, and Congress
has commenced investigating him. Kerr has in
all probability been guilty of no serious offence;
but neither have majority of the prominent
Republicans whom the Rebel Brigadiers have
been pursuing so persstently.

n Why is it that every man who has been
kicked out of the Republican party, or who has

he will condescend to come back and vote the

denti We suppose the party will make NOM
ination with an eye single to gratifying such
cattle.

II The latest scandal case is reported from
Hiawatha. The parties were a doctor and an

now call attention to this important matter

SKINS HIM ALIvE.-C. W. johnson, ESQ.,, of
Atchison, has a scathing letter in last Thursdays
st. Joseph Herald, in reply to "Apex's" election
eering communication in behalf of Judge Hub
bard. Johnson shows up Hubbard's practices in
Court in startling light, and exposes transac-
tiOns which go far to shake the faith that we
wished to maintain in Hubbard's official ntegri-
ty. In the Seneca case, it has been represented
that johnson grossly insalted the Judge, because
[ he wanted the position himself. johnson, in re-
ply, shows how Hubbard uses his authority on
the bench to override right, justice and law, in
order to pander to strong public opinion, and
| make capital for his reelection. He also con-
firms charge that we made against Hubbard.
Some persons have said to us, that perhaps we
stated it rather strongly in saying that Hubbard
destroyed or perverted the record, in order to
prevent his rulings from being reversed by the
Supreme Court. johnson clearly charges him
with "blking the record" He announces his
purpose to 60 for Hubbard without gloves on,
from until after the election. Since the ball
same purpose, and are revealing transactions
that have not been generally known. 1t will be.
come interesting in little while. When some
lawyers say they are opposed to Hubbard, but
that they will have to support him, or he will
ruin their practice; and when others declare
them, that if he is reelected they will be forced
to cease practicing in this District, it reveals
state of facts that imperatively calls for change

lS- Perhaps the Hiawatha Herald had better
ask George T. Anthony how the libel business
works. Ask him how much it cost him, and
whether it paid him. His expense was greater
than ours would have been, had we been convic-
ted, and been subjected to such fine Hubbard
thought the degree of malice deserved.

arises from the memory of John Tyler and Andy

be hard pill for others of them to swallow un-

same time. As a second choice, we think that

THE QUESTION SETTLED.-Judge Hubbard's
heavy organ, the Sabetha Adrance, just squelch-
es us, in its last issue-and not only that, but it
causes the bones of all the old school-book ma
kers to rattle in their graves. Then it winds
up with the declaration that "we" (meaning the
talented editor of the 4draRce) "will see that
Judge Hubbard is reelected, all the same" That
ought TO settle it. But the same editorial "we"
said if he attended the State Convention at To-
peka, as delegate-he didn't want to 60, and
wouldn't if he could get out of it-bnt if the
people forced him to go, he would that the
Bristow sentiment made its power felt. The
people forced him to 60, we believe, but the
BristOw sentiment was as helpless bob. tail
ed bull in fly-time. That is about the way that
eve" will see that Hubbard is reelected.

LIVER COMPLAINT.

By Il. V. PIERCE, NJ. D., of the Worlds Dispen-

The Liver is the great depurating (purifying)
organ of the system, aud has very appropriately
been termed the "housekeeper" of our health.
have observed in the dissecting room, and also
in making post st-mOrtem examinations of the bodies
of those who have died of different diseases, that
in large proportion of cases, the liver has Civ
en- evidence of having ut some time been diseas-
ed. Liver affections are equally prevalent in
beasts Every butcher knows that the liyers of
CATTLE sheep, and swine, are ten times as fire..
quently diseased as any other organ. A healthy
liver each day secrrtcs about two and a half
pounds of bile. When it becomes torpid con.
gested or if, from any cause it be disabled in the
performance of its duties, it is evident that the
elements of the bile must remain in the blood,
thus Irritating, poisoning, and preventing, every
vital process. Nature attempts to rid the system
of these nnxiOus materials by means of other or
gans, as the kidneys, lungs, skin, etc, which be-
come Overtaxed in performing their addit iOnal
labor, and are unable to withstand the pressure.
The brain, which is the great electrical centre
of all vitality, becomes overstimulated with un-
healthy blood, and fails to normally perform its
functions. Hence there is dullness, headache
impairment of the memory, dizziness, gloomy
forebodings, and irritability of temper When
the blood is diseased the skin manifests discolor
ed spots, pimples, blotches boils, carbuncles and
scrOfulous tumors. The stomach and bowels soon-
later, become affected, and constipation piles
drOpsy, dyspepsia, or diarrhea, is the inevitable
result
