The Republican party need not shrink
from the fullest and freest investiga-
ton into the conduct of the last Presi-
dental campaign in the South. There
fore let Anderson and all others who
know anything about fraud, promises,
or improper agreements, testify fully and
completely. There ought to be, and
will be, no disposition among honest
Republicans to cover up or apologize for
any kind Of iniquity, and we venture to
say that before the end shall have been
reached there will be such proof of fraud,
violence and inhuman cruelty on the
part of the Democrats of Louisiana as
will bury out of sight the petty opera
tions of the man Anderson. Tell the
whole story and the world will exclsim
in the language of Governor Palmer,
that the Democratic outrages in Louisi-
ana were disgrace to civilization. We
say, therefore. let it all come out give
us the worst, but give it all. Let moth
ing be concealed, and, when we are
through with Louisiana, let us know
how Mississippi, with its $4,000 Repub-
lican majority, was overcome and trans
ferred to the hands of the bulldozing
Democracy. The people will be satisfied
with no halfway inquiries now that the
work has been begun.-Chicdgo Inter-

A CONSTANT DANGER

Always threatens those who are subject TO
bowel disorders, which often reduce the
system 80 suddenly as to make medicine
useless, unless it is exceedingly effective
and prompt. Parker's Ginger Tonic is
the most valuable remedy ever discoy-
cred for these difficulties. It acts like a
charm on the digestive machinery, speed
lily counteracts the weakening effects on
the bowels of excessive heat, injudiciOus
diet, or impure water, and is warranted
to cure the worst forms of collie, cramps,
diarrhea, dysentery, bloody fux, chol-
era infantum, and even Asiatic cholera,
if taken in time. At the same time, by
its specific action on the mucous coat
ings of the stomach and intestines, it re-
moves constipation, and restores natural
movements of the bowels. The Tonic
also promotes complete digestion, and
thorough conversion of the food into
pure, rich blood, and thus overcomes
such dyspeptic disorders as headache,
acid stomach. low spirits, nervousness,
liver complaint, coated tongue, heart
burn, palpitation of the heart, wakeful-
ness, debility. pain in the stomach, fiat
ulence, etc. 1t is far superior to essences
of ginger, because it possesses, the addi-
tional virtues of other valuable roots,
and as it contains no opium nor any dan
gerous drug, and is pleasant to take, is
equally adapted to the babe and the
aged. Buy a $1.00 bottle of R. B. Ste
venson. or sample bottle at Is cts, and
test its merits.

TUE TALLEST MAN AND WOMAN IN
THE WORLD.

The tallest man is Capt. NJ. v. Bates
the tallest woman is his wife, formerly
Anna Swan. Capt. Bates was born in
Hopkins County, KY, his parents being
Of ordinary size. He continued to re-
main with his parents, who were farm
ers, doing the ordinary labor of q small
farm. until attaining his majority, at
which time he concluded to see some
thing of the world. Proceeding to Gin.
cinnati, thence to New York, he was
finally induced to proceed to Europe for
the purpose of exhibiting himself. In
conjunction with Miss Anna Swan, whom
he met there, they t aveled over Europe.
They were married at st. Martins
Church. London, England, June 18th.
1871. They were, by request, guests of
the Queen, and received from Her Maj
esty watches and jewels as souveneuirs.
Mrs. Bates, formerly Miss Anna Swan,
was born in Colchester County, Nova
Scotia; is 90 years old, weighs 4l3
pounds: is feet III inches high.
Mr.. Bates is feet III inches high,
weighs 478 pounds, wears No. 9 hat, q
25 collar, and a Is boot. Both are we'll
formed. well proportioned, good looking
and highly cultured. s
e They are the largest man and woman
that live. In fact there is no authentic
record of any other human beings ever
having attained the enormous height of
these people. They returned to New
York for exhibition in February last,
and will shortly make a tour Of the
West.

The present season seems to have
been unusually prolific in wind storms.
Two or three comparatively small tor
nadoes have occurred in this State; q
terrific one passed over portion of CEN
trail Wisconsin; another equally severe
demolished about one-half of the town
of Richmond, Missouri; and very severe
but less destructive cyclones have Wis
tied portions of Iowa and Illinois. AL.
together from so to 100 lives have been
lost; several hundred persons more OF
less severely injured, and over hall
q million dollars worth of property de-
stroyed by these terrible visitations.

ANOTHER DEfALcArIoS.
Ever s;nce the Ian,

Ever since the Lappin steal, our Dem
ocratic contemporaries have been shed.
ding crocodile tears over the. matter, and
telling how much better it would have
been for the State if their candidate,
"honest Jimmy Watson" had been
elected instead of our rascally Sammy
Larpin. We are free to admit that it
was bad enough Is it was, but recent de-
velopments indicate that it would not
have beed any better if the Democrats
had elected their man. Mr.. Watson has
been treasurer of Douglas county for
number of years, but recently resigned,
and is now proven to be q defaulter, in o
sum variously estimated at from ten to
thirty thousand dollars. It is claimed
by Mr.. WIS friends that the amount of
the defalcstion can be made good out
of his private property. but his bonds
men do not seem to be over confident
that this can be done, as they are report
ed to be preparing for the worst, by
transferring their property. Mr.. Wat
son has always been regarded as an hon.
est man. and it is believed that he has
not, himself, pro6ted by his defalcation,
but had loaned the money to friends,
who were unable to repay it. This view
of the case is, of course, to some extent,
mitigating circumstance SO far as Mr..
Watson's intentions are concerned, but
it does not help out taxpayers psrticu-
larly, nor clear him from from the charge
of violating the law in thus loaning the
county money. Just what sum the
county will lose, is not positively known
but probably most of the sum Of the
shortage, whatever that may prove to be.
And right here, we wish to suggest
that some change in our statute in re-
gard to the giving of bonds is necessary.
As the law now stands, in most in
stances, neither official bonds or those
given in criminal cases amount to much.
If the persons whose names are on a
bond are good, if any difficulty is sus-
pected, they generally manage to convey
their property not exempt, to relatives
or friends, and leave the State or coun-
ty to whistle for its money. Tho law
should be so amended as to make the
bond lien-first upon any real prop
erty that an officer or criminal may have
at the time it was given, ard next upon
that of every signer of his bond. By
this means, only men of known honesty
or responsibility could get an official
bond, and when bond was obtained, it
would be good for something.

The wheat harvesNn most portions of

THE wheat harvesoln most portions of
Kansas is now we'll under Roadway, and
from what we can CLEAN from our ex-
changes, the yield will be good one,
though probably not quite up to the
expectation of two or three weeks ago.
The acreage is much greater than ever
before, but IN few localities, the crop
has been injured somewhat by storms,
floods aud rust. These places, however,
do not extend over any considerable ex-
tent of country, and will not materially
affect the general result. The aggregate
yield of the State will, probably, be from
$4,000, 900 to 20, 900, 900 bushels. Unless
injured during harvesting. the quality
will be excellent.

AN ASTONISHING FACT.

A large proportion of the American
people are to day suffering from the
effects Of dyspepsia or disordered liver.
The result Of these diseases upon the
masses of intelligent people is most
alarming, making life actually burden
instead of q pleasant existence of enjoy
ment and usefulness - it ought to be.
There is no good reason for this, if you
will only throw aside prejudice snd skep-
ticism, take the advice Of druggists and
your friends, and try one bottle Of
Green's August Flower. Your speedy
relief is certain. Millions of bottles Of
this medicine have been given away to
try its virtues, with satisfactory results
in every case. You can buy a sample
bottle for ten cents to try. Three doses
will relieve the worst cases. Positively
sold by all druggists on the Western
Continent.

SOUND FARM ECONOMY.

There is so much good, level-headed
sense in what correspondent of the Ru-
raj World says in relation to current top
les among farmers, that we want our
readers to see it. Here it is:
81 think the proper cultivation and
preparation of crops for market, is vastly
more important and profitable than the
further agitation of the plough question ;
and that it is much more important to
secure good price for our products than
to buy plough for three dollars, or a
reaper for fifty dollars less than the usual
prices. Implements are purchased only
at intervals, and often only once in sew
eral years, but our farm products are
sold annually. If. then, we get an ad-
vance of three-quarters of a cent on
pork, or five or ten cents on our grain
products, it will be more to the farmer
in the long run, than the discount he can
get on what machinery he will be likely
to purchase. Then again, if the ma
chinery on farm was duly sheltered
and taken care of az it should be, that
would stop very heavy drain on our
resources. A properly constructed ma
chine, we'll taken care of, would last
three times long as it usually does. We
must look at things from different stand
points, and view question on all Sides
We have always grumbled at others for
fixing prices too low on our farm pro-
ducts, and now we are trying to do the
same on the manufactured products of
others. There is just and equitable
medium in relation to this matter, and
1 think we can make much more by at.
tending closely to our own business, and
by preparing our farm products in the
best possible manner for market, to meet
the wants, fancy ond whims of consu.
mers.-Agricult,ral Exchange.
