HoN. ZACH CHANDLER last speech
was an earnest appeal to Republicans
to go to the polls on election day and

Democratic victory there, and the en-
tire Republican ticket was elected by
a handsome majority.

THOSE of the old-time Abolitionists
who are yet living will enjoy satisfac-
ton in the information that measures
are being taken looking to the aboli-
ton of slavery in Cuba by the Spanish
government. The bill having for its
object the emancipation OF the slaves
there will provide for their immediate
emancipation but will require that
they work for their respective masters
under contract for time while they
learn that free men as well as slaves
must toll for the means of subsistence,
unless they already have sufficient
property to enable them to live with
out laboring.

RIVER FALLS, WISCONSIN, THURSDAY NOVEMBER b. 1879
INCLINED TO BE SOLID.

The elections held in the Northern
States during the months of Septem-
Der, October and November leave no
doubt of an inclination on the part of
| the people therein to mass the North in
solid phalanx to repel the assault of a
solid South. This course is eminently
proper and should be followed SO long
as the people of the South preserve the
intolerant solidity which now charac-
teriZes that section of the country.
The people of the North evidently
recognize their position as being anal
ogous to that in which they found
themselves in 1850 and they have given
unmistakable evidence of adetermina-
ton to maintain by the ballot in 1880
the supremacy of those principles the
ascendancy of which has cost such a
terrible sacrifice of blood and treasure.
The reaction indicated by the Sep
TENDER elections in Maine and Califor-
MIA was strongly emphasized by those
in Ohio and Iowa in October. and still
more forcibly exemplified by the No.
vember States. Though the official
count is not yet at hand enough is
known of the result to prove that the
most extravagant hopes OF Republi-
cans everywhere have been more than
realized, The fealty of Republican
States has again been confirmed,
doubtful States have placed themselves
unquestionably in the Republican col
umn and their places have been sup
piled by Democratic States. The cleo
tions of 1879 should prove instructive
lessons to the rebel brigadiers and
their Democratic allies of the North,
but whether or not they will profit
thereby remains to be seen.

dc medicine that can be employed cleans
ing the stomach and bowels. and even the

they stimulate the digestive organs and
promote vigorous health.
AYERS PILLS have been known for
mere than q quarter of a century, and have
Obtained a worldwide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are so composed that obstruc-
iions within their range can rarely with
stand or evade them. Not only do they
cure the everyday complaints of every
body. but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have baffled the best of
human skill. While they produce power
fll effects they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. BY
their aperient action they grippe much less
than the common purgatives, and never
give pain when the bowels are not inhamed
They reach the vital fountains of the blood
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomei
nor anv deleterious drug, these Pills may
be taken with safety by anybody. Their
sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh,
and makes them pleasant TO take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.
