Sixth-The revolutionary movement
inaugurated under cover ofinvestigation,
but really as an attack upoa the Presi-
dents title, calculated as it is to Mexican
ize the affairs of this countEI-to cause
general distrusJ, TO prostFate our indus
tries and aggra4ate- and prolong the dis
tress of labGrfng and Industrial classes,
we uno9alifedly condemn. President
Hayes having been duly elected, and his
title subsequently settled under the Con-
-stitution, by the highest tribunal and by
the act of both political parties, it can not
be questioned; and we recognize in his
administration the highest integrity and
patriotism; the most sincere effort to pro-
mote political purity and harmony, and
to rescue general business prosperity
throughout the whole country.
Seventh-The present Legislature is a
warning to the people of the State, and a
proof of the dangerous character of the
| Democratic party. The majority of that
body, in an unusually long session, pass
ed no laws for the benefit Of the people of
the State, but theY reVo1utionized every
State institution tomake places for Demo
cratic partisans. They subordinated the
welfare of the insane, the blind, the mute
| and the orphans to the interests of the
Democratic party.
Eighth-rhe Constitution having never
| contemplated more than one Congress
| sional districting of the State during q
term of ten years between the taking OF
the censuses, we condemn the recent out
rageous and unjust redistricting of the
State by the Legislature, in violation Of
usage, and at the dictation of Speaker
Randall, by which, on the basis of the
vote of the last Presidential election
when a majority of the votes was Repub
lican, the Democrats would be enabled tt
carry fourteen out of twenty Congress
men.

REPURLICAN PLATFORM .

First-The principles of the Republic
can party, as written in the history of
the country, as specifically declared in
the National platform of the party, as
made sacred by the blood of patriots shed
in defense of the union and freedom, we
hereby reaffirm.
SecOnd-TO the soldiers who sacrificed
SO much in defense of our common cOun-
try there is debt of gratitude due which
can never be fully discharged. The
pledges made by the Republican party,
and by our patriotic people, is binding
and sacred obligation, never to be for
gotten, never to be impaired, but to the
fullest extent, to be fulfilled. We, there
fore, denounce as unpatriotie, rheartless
and Infamous the act of the Ohio Legisla-
ture, introduced by deserter, bounty
jumper and convict, intended and calcr-
lated to drive from the Soldiers Orphans
Home the orphans and children of de-
ceased or disabled soldiers, or to rob the
widows and families of such patriots of
the pittance paid to them by the Govern
nlent of the United States, and demand its
unconditional repeal.
Third-The financial question having
been disposed of by Congress, and the
country atpresent needing repose, in Or
der that capital may seek investment, and
that industries may revive, thus increas-
ing the demand for labor. the situation
| ought to be accepted, and we oppose the
| further agitation of the question at this
time as Injurious to business, and devoid
of other than evil results.
FOurth-The disposition, as exhibited
| by conservative men in the South to Cd.
pose revolutionary methods on the part Of
| Northern Democrats as shown, first, in
their refusal to oppose the consummatior
| of the Electoral count, and more lately ir
| the expression of sentiment in disappro-
bation of the proposed attack upon the
| Presidents title, is received as a promis
| ing omen, and the Republicans of OhiC
cordially greet such citizens of the soutI
as adhere in good faith to the terms upor
| which the issues of the war were settled
including the constitutional amendment
guaranteeing equal civil and politica
rights free speech, free press, an un
trameled ballot of all citizens. Upon EEest
conditions alone can sectional strife b.
allayed, and sectional lines, which nov
separate In great measure the Soutl
from the North be obliterated.
Ftfth-A tariff for revenue should b.
maintained and so adjusted as to secur
incidental protection to home industry
True economy requires that the Govern
ment should make sufficient appropriatioI
to carry forward the work on ali DubIf
buildings without delay, and this shoul,
especially be the aim when the supply O
labor is In excess of the demand. Tn
mining Interests of Ohio require an in
spection inteligently administered, an
we condemn the action of the GOvernO
In prostituting that department, the OF
1ect of which should be to protect life an
promote the comfort of miners. to mer
\ kgarasan purpose.

able case. Mrs. Joseph Kuhns, aged AZ,
was troubled with a cancerous tumor
since April, 1879, The tumor grew very,
rapidly and caused her great alarm.
She had been using a great many differ
ent kinds of salves and Internal remedies
recommended to her by her friends, but
it still continued to grow. She called on
me and gave her the bottle of Lacupia
you sent me. l soon noticed that the
swelling was going down and the pain

was surprised to find her well in so short
a time. Lacupia is certainly great rem

Diseases of the Scalp, or Pityriasis.
Letter from E. T. Murray, Esq, Trenton,
New Jersey.

Letter from E. T. Murray, Esq, Trenton,
New Jersey.
/ was over 16 years affected with dis
ease of the scalp. The doctors called it
Pityriasis. 1t was a constant annoyance
to me, being not only confined to my
head, but often spread over other parts of
my body. 1t commenced by a scaly sub
stance, resembling dandruff, gathering
at the roots of the hair. On removing
this scaly substance the skin appeared as
though it was intiamed, and the spot was
soon covered with a new crop like the
first. Often kind of scab would form
which sometimes extended down over nv
forehead. tried great many remedies
for it., and went to New York and con-
suited prominent physician there. He
prescribed for me, and told me the only
remedy that would ever do me any good
would be one that would remove the dis
ease from my blood. Ispoke to him of
your Lacupia, as had seen it advertised.
He said should try his remedy, and if it
did not cure should then try the Lacu-
pla. used his-uaedieine but it did no
good, and concluded to buy bottle of
Lacupia. / used it according to the di-
rections, and soon found that the scales
were drying up and the dandruff depos-
its stopped forming, and after the sixth
bottle am happy to say that my head
was clean and well. L can with pleasure
recommend your Lacupia as being val
uable medicine.

under the shoulder blade, and it fire.
quently extends to the top of the shoul-
der, and is sometimes mistaken for
rheumatism in the arm. The stomach
is affected with loss of appetite and
sickness the bowels IN general are
costive, sometimes alternative with lax j;
the head is troubled with pain, accom-
panied with dull, heavy sensation In
the back part. There is generally a
considerable loss of memory, accom-
panied with a painful sensation of hav-
ing left undone something which ought
to have been done. A slight, dry cough
is sometimes an attendant The patient
complains of WEAKNESS and debility; he
is easily startled, his feet are cold or
burning, and he complains of a prickly
sensation of the skin; his spirits are
low; and although he is satisfied that
exercise would be beneficial to him,
yet he can scarcely summon up forti-
tude enough to try it. In fact, he dis
trusts every remedy. Several of the
above symptoms attend the disSase, 81
cases have occurred where few of them
existed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER tc

TAKE AND LIVE.
What the Doctors say of Lacupia
sCRoFULA.


The following letter is from A. x. Ro-
berts, NJ. D., Philadelphia, Pa:
The Lacupia is a most valuable remedy
and the best have ever used for Scrofula
and diseases of scrofulous nature. I have
lately had under treatment a little girl,
Fannie A., aged i've years. For the last
three years she has been suffering from
very sore eyes; was scarcely able to see
anything, the light causing great pain,
the lids we're often glued shut with mat
ter. She had quite a number of hard
Jumps on the sides of the neck, the glands
being swollen, some of which were open
and discharging pus. The child was very
weak and pale, lost all appetite, and was
rapidly sinking. I prescribed your La
cnpia, did not allow her to eat greasy
food. In short time the sores in the
neck stopped discharging and were soon
healed. The eyes soon got well, and she
was enabled to bear the light and see per-
fectly. told her parents to use the La
cupia even after the eyes and the sores
had got well, 80 as to purify the blood,
but being poor, they stopped the Lacupia
too soon, and being exposed to all kinds
of priVatiOns, the disease showed symp-
toms of returning. Her father then got
bottle of Sarsaparilla and Iron, but it
did no good. 1 was called again to see
her, and at my own expense bought her
three bottles Of Lacupia, and now she y
entirely well.
ScrORulOuS Ulcers and Abcesses of the
Knee Joint.
Letter from Geo. II. Brown, M. D., 80
West Quincy street, Chicago, Ill.
Mr.. K, a married man, Al years of age,
aprinter by trade, had chronic scrofulous
abcesses of the knee joint for six years.
There were four openings around the
joint, which discharged greenish col
OFed matter. His face showed plainly
that he was of the scrofulOus diathesis
He had been under the treatment of sew
eral prominent physicians of this city
but with no good results. tried almost
every Alternative in the materia medics
without effect. I was advised by a med.
ieal friend to try your Laeupia, and ae-
cordingly had him buy six bottles. Be
fore the fifth bottle was all used the sores
were all healed, and he was soon able tC
go to work at his old employment, vel
man. have lately used it in a case o.
scrofulous ulcer in the breast of a lady
She had been suffering with it for thir
teen years. After six months treatmen
with the Lacupia the ulcer was healed
and she says she never felt better in he
life. In my estimation, the Lacupia i
the best remedy ever discovered for al
kinds of scrofulous disorders, and thin
the time is not far distant when the pro
fession generally must recognize it.
