(From the Ncao York Truth (Independ-
ent), Sept. 8th, 18S0.)

The great feat ure of Hancock's ca
reer in all the situations Of responsible
ity to which he has been called, has
been his undertaking loyalty to the law.
Every one of his letters and speeches
breathes tn idea that submission to
the law is the first duty of the citizen.
AS "A military commander, in times
when civil law was derided, he main
tanned this principle, and he is scarcely
likely, now that the necessity OF mil-
itary rule is past, to assume different
view. Men can Only be judged by
their records. Hancock's record points
to him rs perfect safe man for the
highest posit ion Americans can confer
upon him.

What the country wants, what it
needs, is cha nge. A majority of two
hundred ana fifty thousand in 1876 re-
corded the demand for it from the peo-
pie. The same feeling is alive to day
and will speak with greater emphasis on
the I'd of November. The opposition
have been 50 long in power that the
party is honeycombed with corruption;
the men in office have fed and fattened
so long upon public pap, that such feI-
lows each claim the right to a key to
the public treasury. Teach them a
lesson. Put Hancock in. Institute
new men and new measures. Give us
new era of union, good feeling, good
times, and q sound, economical and
constitutional government under Han
cock. Clinton Democrat.
Millheim Journal. [volume] (Millheim, Pa.) 1876-1984, 1880-09-16

doubtful states, upon which the result
depends, are, upon a fair vote, DEM
ocratic. If the Democrats use their
advantages with reasonable prudence
they can elect Hancock and English.

Tried to Disfranchise his Town.

William Philbrick, who was nominated
Thursday as the fusion candidate for Con
gress in this district. interested himself in
getting the vote of Skowhegan. the town
which he lives in, thrown out by the Gov
ernor and Council. and the republicans
DISTINGUISHED in order to count into the
legislature the fusion candidate.
The ground upon which he placed the
counting out of the republicans was that
the shape of the ballots used constituted
a distinguishing mark. This shows what
the caliber of Mr., Philbrick is as a man
and statesman.
The people of Skowhegan hit to
place distinguishing mark" upon him
next September that will cause him to re-
member with bitter regret the effort he
made to get them counted out last Fall.
A man that would try to disfranchise
his own town is worse than heather.

Down Town Merchant,

Eaving passed several sleepless nights, dis
turbed by the agonies and cries of a suffering
child, and becoming convinced that Mrs.
Winslow Soothing Syrup was just the article
needed, procured supply for the child. On
reaching his home and acquainting his wife With
what he had done, she refused to have it ad-
ministered to the child, as she was strongly
in favor Of Homeopathy. That night the
child passed in suffering, and the parents
without sleep. Returning home the day fol-
lowing the father found the baby still worse
and while contemplating another sleepless
night. the mother stepped from the room to
attend to some domestic duties, and left the
father with the child. During her absence
he administered portion of the Soothing Syr-
up to the baby, and said nothing. That night
all hands slept well, and the little fellow
awoke in the morning bright and happy. The
mother wus delighted with the sudden and
wonderful change, and although at first of
Tended at the deception practiced upon her,
has continued to use the Syrup, and suffering
crying babies and restless nights have disap-
peared. A single trial of the Syrup never
yet failed to relieve the baby and overcome
the prejudccs of the mother. Sold by all
Druggists. % cents bottle.
