AYERS CArHARr1c PILLS are the best of
all purgatives for family use. They are
the product OF long, laborious, and sue
cessful chemical investigation, and their
extensive use, by Physicians in their prac-
tice, and by all civilized nations, proves
them the best and most effectual purgative
Pill that medical science can devise.
Being purely vegetable no harm can arise
from their use. In intrinsic value and
curative powers no other Pills can be
compared with them and every person,
knowing their virtues, willemploy them,
when needed. They keep the system in
perfect order, and maintain in healthy
action the whole machinery oflife. Mild,
searching and effectual, they are specially
adapted to the needs.of the digestive ap-
paratus, arrangements of which they
prevent and cure, if timely taken. They
are the best and safest phYsic to employ

HEweTT COMMITTEE.

New York, Aug. 23.-Before the labor
committee, Horace White testified that he
had studied finances carefully, and consid-
cred the present financial crisis one of .
series that has occurred for the past two
hundred years among the nations. They
followed rampant speculation, like that Of
1873. The condition of the currency had
not made the state of things worse. Witness
thought the accumulation Of property, act
ing on the sanguine temperaments of a GER
tain race Of people, would produce specu-
lative era and over production, but machine
ry had decreased business by producing too
great amounts and lowering prices.
Protective tariffs would not raise wages,
but might raise the price of some commo-
ditics; they would stimulate some branches
OF business. The laboring classes wages
have been greatly increased in the past wo
hundred years. lie recommended that tar
iii duties be removed from some raw ma-
,erials. The surplus capital had been driven
10 the bank vaults by a low rate of interest.
A protective tariff injured business
greatly. The government had no right 10
regulate or limit the hours Of labor; TO do
80 was 10 infringe upon personal liberty,
and transfer part Of the wages Of the EN-
ployed to the unemployed. Every legisla.
tive attempted TO transfer capitol from the
rich to the poor has made the rich richer
and the poor poorer. 1t would be bazsr.
dous and propably unsuccessful undelt.k.
ing to use the proceeds of the public land
rates for colonization purposes. He didn I
think the surplus population in cities would
be content to live on western lands, and II
taken them would not stay.

YaIkton Aug. lG, ls7s.-The market tor cattle,

last weeks report. The demand for fresh meat
has increased somewhat, owing TO cooler wealth.
er, Butchers find no difficulty in buying what
stock they need. Chickens and eggs are scarce.

busy and have no time to come to market.

NIilch cows fresh, are in good demand, and

The supply Of horses is equal to the demand,
aud can be bought at reasonable prices. The
prices of horses vary SO much that 1t is a very
difficult matter to give a ruling price. Good
farm horses and mares can be bought from $50
to slao; pings and inferior grades from $40 to
SG5. Heavy work horses, none Offering, and it is
not likely this kind Of horses would find buyers
at y paying figure, as they always sell at higher
prices. Well bred, fancy driving horses, none in
the market. AS TO whether they could be sold,
we are not able to decide. 1t seems to us that
the breeding of heavy draught horses should at
once become a part of every Dakota farmers
greatest interest, for several reasons twill not
be long until Dakota will have more horses that
will be needed at home. The farmers then will
have to seek a market in the east In order to
be able to realize good and paying prices, they
| must have the kind of horses that will meet the
demand of the eastern market-that is. two
kinds, heavy work horses or well bred. good
steppers. The first. every farmer can raise with
time and money. 1t seems to us that Where
horses can be raised SO cheaply as they can be i'll

Republicans have often claimed
that it was the intention ofthe South
erners to finally make the United
States pension the rebel soldiers of
the busted Confederacy, as we'll as
pay rebel war claims, but as often
have the Democrats denied it. But
straws show which way the winds
blow, and we publish a ''straw" from
the Meridian, Mississippi, Mercury, as
follows:
When the appropriation bills come
up, and Southern members vote solidly
the pension item, can it be doubted
that they vote these vast sums with a
pang that the confederate soldiers and
their widows and orphans oftheir res
pective constituencies are left out?
Why don't they move the amend
ment to include the confederate SOL
der? Because in theory they are
peers, but in matter of fact are fet-
tered by their fears and restrained by
cowardly policy.

Neither of the parties to the fierce
hand-to-hand political contest that
ragged for years between parties in
Louisiana, can afford to have his
record scrutinized by a revengeful
enemy armed with the power of the
law. The white league has no ad-
vantage over the returning board,
the shotgun none over the doubtful
poll list in this respect. If the tables
were turned and Democratic BULLDOG.
ers were under indictment for the

The Washington Post says of j.
Madison Wells: "He is in possession
of certain documents, conhded to him
as Returning Boarder, and which will
not only connect Hayes, but member
of the cabinet, with the frauds that re-
suited in the Inauguration of the pres
ent presidential incumbent. These he
proposes to utilize in bringing the adj
ministration to terms.
So much is being said of the connec
ton of the President with returning
board frauds and the prosecution of re-
turning board members that the whole
matter begins to look like plot and
counterpart, one lie told to prop up an
other lie or to contradict it. People
who are tired of such things are not to
be blamed for setting the whole matter
down as a case of the pot accusing the
kettle of being black.

England should have said less or
done more. Russia has outwitted
her. Turkey resents what she con-
siders British perfidy, and throws
herself into the arms of Russia.
There is prodigious commotion in
England as the fog lifts in which
events Of the last fortnight have been
enveloped. England beholds Russia
in absolute possession Of Turkey.
The strongholds on the Danube and
in Asia are given up; even the defen-
ces ofConstantinople are surrendered
The Turkish empire is deprived of
every means Of resistance, and with
all these advantages in her hands
Russia proposes to make peace.
Whether England is pleased with the
conditions or not matters little. 1t
is too late too act. The drift pro-
ceedings shows that the purpose is
to make peace without her. Turkey,
incensed at the course of England
heretofore, now refuses to invoke her
aid, and makes terms with Russia on
her own account. With the over
whelming advantages which Russia
has secured through arms and d.
plomacy it is difficult to see how
England could now intervene with
hope of success. Russia is virtually
in possession of all important points,
and the first sign OF hostility on the
part of England would cause her to
close her grasp on them; and it would
probably be beyond the power of
England, or any combine alton or al
lance that she might be able to form,
to dslodge her. 1t is an astounding
situation for England. Throughout
the country war feeling runs high.
In cabinet and parliament the war
party have it all their own way; yet
it does not appear what can be done.
During the past year there has been
too much talk or too little action, and
this dilemma is the consequence.--Or-
eq0niaa.

Mr.. E. ID. Phelps, of Yakima valley,
says the Dalles -Nountdineer, informs
us that Chief Moses is living peace
ably at Priests rapids, his old winter
quarters, and will no doubt remain
SO if left alone by the whites. He
also says there is some anxiety among
the settlers of the Yakima to learn
the intention of the military authori-
ties in relation to these Indians.
Should they decide to attempt to
force them on the reservation, trouble
may be expected; and, when it is
positively known that Moses can
command fifteen hundred warriors,
the magnitude of the trouble may be
easily comprehended. Smohalla, an
other notorious chief, is living at
White Bluffs, about 80 or 40 miles
below Moses.

which can be coined for many months will be
in demand for customs, because it will be
cheaper than gold and this demand is likely
to prevent for the time being any great differ
ence between the gold dollar and the silver
dollar But so soon as silver shall have been
coined in large supply, so that all duties can
be paid with it, it is sure to decline. Then Us
the supply of silver increases, gold will wholly
disappear and greenbacks will gradually de-
preciate. 1t is believed that the Secretary has
given in this statement the true reason why
gold does not rise at once. Limited coinage
of silver is great point to prevent it for the
present.
