Why SUBMIT TO THE DIscoMFoRT, and
humiliation entailed by local disease of
the skin, when GIENN's SULPHUR SOAP will
rid you Of it with certainty and despatch?
1t is q remedy which never fails to relieve
cutaneous disease, and, as means of banish-
ing defects of the complexion, it is equally
reliable. The benefits arising from the use
of Sulphur Baths, in cases of skin disease,
and of rheumatism and gout, ARE well known,
but the cost is too heavy to be incurred by
many persons who would otherwise take ad-
vantage Of them. Glenn's Sulphur Soap
answers the same purpose, and is both mex
pensive and convenient. No one need stir
abroad in search of sulphur bath who has
this admirable means Of providing one in
doors. It is incomparably the deodorizcr
and disiniectant ofclothing and bed linen in
use, and prevents diseases of an obnoxious
nature caused by contact. Sores, ulcers,
bruises, scalds, cuts and sprains are prompt
ly remedied by it; and its cleanly, healing
and soothing properties constitute it a far
more desirable remedy for scorbutic ailments
than ointments of any description, since
such greasy compounds soil the clothing,
often aggravate, and very rarely indeed do
any permanent good. Sold by Druggists.

accounting for his delay. He elid he was

A FEW MORE poor MEN.

II is q fact worthy of nets that while the
hief argument of the democracy is the
.loye-tyof Judge Bennett, not one of the
men who are stumping southern Dakota in
the interest of Trip is possessed Of a dol
lars worth of real property in his own
name. There are Sphinx and Brookings
and Miller and Oliver Shannon, all ofthem
going about the country bewailing the
lamentable poverty. of our candidate and
warning the people that poverty is almost
q crime this year, while they are themselves
even more vulnerable than the man against
whom their foolish h%arangues are flung, 1t
ciate such doctrines from the stump, but
democracy has that article in abundance.
Mr.. Miller is the democratic candidate for
an office almost as responsible Es that of
delegate to congress. A poor man himself,
with scarcely anything to call his own, he
has the audacity to so forth among the
people and tell them that poverty is a sin.
MIR. Sphinx, with the commission of a feder-
al office holder in his pocket.scarcely three
years old, and the possessor OF nothing
which would rescue him from the charge
Of poverty, was a republican candidate for
delegate to congress. During the years
which have interviewed, though he has en-.
joyed the enoluments of Office and the pro.
fits Of a good law practice, he is no better
off in this worlds goods than in the time
of which We speak. We do not place these
facts as arguments against ability, or states.
manship, or honesty. We recile them to
show the inconsistency of the men who
are parading the charge Of poverty against
Judge Bennett. Indeed it is difficult 10
find a rich mar in Dakota, either in the
democratic or the republican party. Capa.
city has never before been tested by that
guage. But as it is the only charge that
can be laid at the door of Judge Bennett, it
has been used unsparingly in this campaign,
and as Bartlett Trip happens to be one of
the few rich men in this new portion of the
west a striking contrast between the tinan-
cial;standing Of the two candidates can be
drawn. But is it a becoming act on the
paIt$of Dir. Sphinx, or Mr.. Shannon, or Mr..
Miller, or Judge Bookings to handle an
argument Of this nature? Brookings and
Sphinx have each held federal positions by
gift Of the republican party and
left that party when it would
give them no more of the nations sub.
stance. Coupled with their poverty is the
more glaring sin of ingratitude. Mr.. Shan
o used his best endeavors to obtain a
federal Office, and failed, and then went
over to the enemy, Coupled with his pov.
erty is the disappointment which frequent
ly makes sore the head of a politician. Mr..
Miller never has aspired to federal patron
age-he has always been too much of a
democrat for that, and his poverty stands
alone against him. These are the men who
are urging the people not to vote for Ben.
nett because he is poor.

If, as it i. claimed by Mr.. Trip and bis
organs, Judg 9 Bennett is not a bona fde
citizen of Dakota, his election can be de-
clared null and void. Would any Of them
attempt such q game, even with a democra.
tic house of representatives as the tribunal
before which the contest would be tried !!
If they would not, do they really believe
what they ssy?-Siour Falls PantagrupM.
