Weaver in his speech said he was
in favor of issuing greenbacks TO be
full legal tender for all debts-re-
deemable in gold at the United States
Treasurers office-when the Treasurer
has the gold. Now I would ask how
the Treasurer can have gold, when
our custom duties, and all demands
due the government, can be paid in
nat money!. Instance the orders OF
Wapello county, when the Board OF
Supervisors issues more warrants on
the County Treasurer than he has
money on hands to pay, do not our
warrants depreciate in value moth
ing but the knowledge of immediate
redemption gives them full face val
ne. But says Weaver you can pay q
debt with fiat money, because Con-
gress will make it full legal tender;
can you fix price on other mems
property? Will not values be unset.
tied by the issuance of fiat money ?
When q man applies at my counter to
buy goods with County order, I in
quire when can l get the money, il
the Treasurer writes ON the back of
the warrant cant pay for want OF
funds 2" That County order will not
buy az many goods because the Treas
urer has not funds to redeem it. ~

scih the gloss and freshness Of youth.
Thin hair is tIickened, falling hair
checked, and badness often, though
not always, cured by its use. Moth
ing can restore the hair where the
follicles are destroyed, or the glands
atrophied and dccayed. But such as
remain can be saved for usefulness
by this application. Instead of foul
ing the hair with pasty sediment, it
will keep it clean and vigorous. Its
occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling of, and
consequently prevent badness. Free
from those deleterious substances
which make some preparations dan.
gerous, and injurious to the hair, the
Vigor can only benefit but not harm
it. If wanted merely for a

The Bloomfield Republican says
an. IL. Jones, Eldridge Sayer and
Brick Pomeroy we're accorded distin-
guished honor last Friday. They
were met at the depot by men who
served their country on many a
bloody field. They were met with
banners bearing notices from Pome-
roy's paper and ornamented with pic
lures from the same vilIainous sheet.
The boys stopped ut the hotel and
posted their banner for Brick to read
Not word was said. In silence the
old soldiers pointed him to his infa-
nous record. With scorn and con-
tempt his infamous utterances we're
held up SO that he and his followers
could see how the bravo boys regard
ed him. Brick Pomeroy cannot
change his nature-he will go down
to the future as representative Of all
that is mean and contemplate. That
Iowa soldiers, in their mad thirst for
Office, can get down in the dirt with
Pomeroy is almost incomprehensible.

Ed. Campbell, chairman of the dem

town to-day en- route to his home in
Fairfield. The Hon. Ed. looks care
worn and haggard, as though he
could not harmonic the conflicting
elements ofhis party, and was taking
the matter to heart. He was very re-
ticent, but led our reporter to believe
that he was heart-sick Of the whole

without saying anything positive al
to what had been done. a..

Few people can resist 3 dEtle
skillful fa5tery. There is nothing
in this world moce delightful than
the gentle utilization of our own
self respect and self-Iove. There
are no eyes more devoutly willing
to be blinded By = little jUdiciOus
dose Of the Intoxicating coedIal
than those Of the sterner sex. A
foolish young, or still more fool
ISL Old, man has an occasional sly
intimation from 4 woman that she
admires hun. 1t Is an Irresistible
arrow, and be lies 4 captive at her
feet. But the imposter IN tat5ery
betrays himself in q moment. The
thick butter laid on with = trowel is
as hard to digest As stone or i
scorpion. The illusion Is gone
when the bait is visible and tangJ-
bic. No one ought to embark IN
life as fatterer without deep
knowledge of human nature and 4
full experience Of the minor details
Of the business. There must be
mutual pretense on both sides that
the buttering process Is not going
on. Nothing IS more necessary for
complete success. The fswnIug,
loud to1gued parasite Is an utter
tupostr, destitute OF every scienEif
&c maneuver. a man whom society
tolerstes but desplses thoroughly
The unblushtng dsrterer Is simply
a monster Of deceit.
