affairs. Fraud in the election of a constable is no less crime than fraudin the election of q President, --the only difference Is in the magnitude of the crime. A reme- dy for the fragrant evils under which political affairs are now laboring must be found and. ap- piled by the people themselves. They must demand honesty and fair dealing in politics as well as in everything else. Reform IS needed in matters ol minor impor- tance as well as Tn those of the greatest magnitude, and if the frauds by which President has been counted in shall stimulate the people to greater watchfulness, there will be something at last to be thankful for.

IN NYEMORIAM.

Whereas, In the dispensation of an Ailwise Providence 1t las pleased Almighty God to remove from our midst on the 2d Of March, 1877, our worthy md highly esteemed brother +. NJ. Latta, aged II years;
 Therefore, be it resolved by Russellvllle Lodge, No. ,, 1. 0. G. T..

Notice is hereby given that the undersigned will make application to the April term of the Pope county Probate court for an order appoint ing road reviewers to view out and change roads in Pope county as fol- lows, to-wit: Commencing on the Dover and Clinton road, at, or near Watkins blacksmith shop, in Griffin township, running northwest to the line between the east and west halves of section twenty-one, thence west on the northern line of sections twenty-one and twenty, intersecting the present road at the farm known as the Widow Eubanks' farm. Also commencing on the Springfield road where it now intersects the Dover and Clinton road and continuing the said road on the line between the east and west halves of section twenty-one until the same shall in- tersect said Dover ana Clinton road at the point where the change shall have been made on said Dover and Clinton road.

The Gospel of Merit.

Where tkere is so much rivalry as in the manufacture of family medi- cines, he who would succeed must give positive and convincing proof of merit. This is an age of inquiry. People take nothing for granted. They must know the "whys" and "whcrefores' before acknowledging the superiority of one article over another. Among the few prepara- tions that have stood the test, those manufactured by k. V. Pierce, NJ. D., of the Worlds Dispensary, Buff falo, N. Y., have for many years been foremost. The truth of any statement made concerning them can be easily ascertained, for Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy and Dr. Pier ce's golden medical discovr'y are now prescribedby many physicians in curing obstinate eases of Catarrh and incipient Consumption. The Discovery has no equal in curing coughs, colds, bronchial and nervous affections. It allays all irritation of tle mucous membrane, aids diges- tion, and when used with Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets readily overcomes torpid liver and Constipation, while the Favorite Prescription has no rival in the field of prepared medicine in curing diseases peculiar to females. If you wish to s'know thyself' procure q copy of "1he Peoples Common Sense Medical Adviser" an illus trated book of nearly 1000 pages, adapted to the wants of everybody. Price Sl.50, postage prepaid. Ad- dress the author, R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.

Chemistry has Discovered at
 last what everybody wants.

WooD's IMPROVED HAIR REsToRA- tive is unlike my other, and has no equal. The Improved has new veg etable tonic properties restores grey hair to a glossy, natural color; res torres faded, dry, harsh and falling hair; restores, dresses, gives vigor to the hair; restores liair to prema- turely bald heads; removes dand- ruh, humors, scaly eruptions; re- moves irritation, itching and scaly dryness. No article produces such wonderful effects. Try it, call for Woods Improved Hair Restorative, and don't be put of with any other article. Sold by all druggists in this place and dealers everywhere Trade supplied at manufacturers prices by c. A.

Pay Your Taxes.

We admonish our taxpayers that time is rapidly gliding away, and it will not be much longer until the penalty for non-payment will at- tach. It is therefore well to bear in mind that all those who failed to meet the collector at the different precincts and procure their receipts for the taxes of 1876, can yet have the privilege of paying at the Col lector's office at Dover, any time prior to the twentieth of April, without penalty or costs.
 Do not put this matter off from day to day, but attend to it at once, and be done with it.

Legitimate Results.

To the Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 After time has somewhat molli fed the indignation created by the fraudulent counting in a President of the United States, let us see if we cannot find some cause or causes naturally leading to result so much to be deplor
 ed. To the pernicious idea that "all is fair in politics" is all our political troubles to be traced. Within my recollection the time wastaat men were expected to act honorably in politics just as in anything else. And why should it not be so? But that it is entire ly different now is lamentably true. At every stage of the po- litical game, from the call of the primary election till the last vote is counted, deception, trickery, duplicity, fraud, falsehood and double-dealing run riot. In for mer years, before 1 came to this State. I obtained such an insight into the movements and plots of politicians as were never dreamed of 20 or 30 years ago. l took considerable interest in politics, and in view of what l saw in a small way l was not astounded at the unblushing efirontery of the Louisiana Returning Board. I saw the action Of Q Democratic County Central Committee con trolled by. a Republican (the vote being s to ' believe the excuse of the recreant member being that the Republican referred to was q good customer of his, and he did not like to offend him. At primary elections men shameless ly vote twice, and many times oftener, when in truth they had no right to vote at all. Delegates to conventions are often stupefied with liquor and their proxies taken from them and unblushing- ly used by others. Forged prox- ies are not unfrequently used by designing men to force their way into convention, where they hope to accomplish some selfish end. In the battle born state of Nevada-the land of silver bricks "a Democratic paper, owned in part by the Chairman of Dem ocratic State Central Committee
 and edited by ranting Democrat who aspired to the nomination ot Attorney Genera. by the Demo
 cratic State Convention, openly espoused the cause of a Republi
 can of immense means who wa: seeking seat in the United States Senate. The change il the tone of the paper fiom tho most ultra Democracy to the mos
 enthusiastic Republication wal made without any change in edit or or proprietor, but the Chair man of the Central Committed never met with that body after
 wards. and the claims of the Dem
 ocratic editor of Republican paper were never submitted tt the State Convention. Just SC long as men are not held to strict accountability for their con
 duct as politicians will politics b, corrupt. While the idea prevails that "all is fair in politics" W, ! may expect no improvement il the conduct of those entrusted with the management of politica
