WHAT THE POLAND COMMITTEE
SAID ABOUT III.

1t ought not to be considered high
treason to introduce Republican testi-
mony against Mr.. Garfield. Judge Po-
land, of Vermont, a stalwart Republican,
was at the head of the Committee which
investigated Mr.. Garfeld's connection
with Cakes Ames and the Credit Mo-
bilier, when the affair was fresh. The
committee was mainly Republican, and
throughout the inquiry showed a dis
position to shield the parties implicated.
Mr.. Garfield declared under oath that
he had never received nor owned a share
of Credit Mobilier stock, and yet a COM
mittee composed of his W party friends
brought in the following verdict as the
| conclusion reached, after an exhaustive
and patient investigation
Mr.. Garfield agreed with Mr.. Ames to
| take ten shares Of Credit Mobilier stock,
| but did not pay for the same. Mr.. Ames
| received the so per cent. dividend in bonds,
and sold the bonds for 81 per cent, and
| also received the 60 per cent. cash divi-
| dend, which together paid the price of the
| stock and interest and left a balance Of
| 1929. This sum was paid over to Mr..
| Garfield by a check on the Sergeant-at-
| Arms, and Mr.. Garfield then understood
this sum was the balance Of dividends
after paying for the stock.
If Mr.. Garfield stands convicted of
wrong dong, it is not the fault of the
Democrats, and they are not to be
accused Of mud throwing" simply be-
cause they bring forward Republican
testimony to show that the Republican
standard bearer is noi a fit person to be
called to preside over the destinies of this
great Republic, in opposition to the
stainless soldier and patriot, Winfield
Scott Hancock.

IT was General Garfield who on March
3. 1873, rose in the House to a privil-
eyed question and presented the report
in favor of the 'back salary grab" He
manipulated the wires so as to pass the
measure and put it beyond the power Of
the House to reconsider it. And when
the storm Of indignation came up from
the people he quietly slipped around and
restored his share Of the "swag" to the
Treasury. This act alone. if nothing
else were brought against him, stamps
Deacon Garfield as a very weak brother.

Who is Kris. winsIow Z?

AS this QUESTION is frequently asked
we will simply say that she is a lady
who for upwards of thirty years has
untiring devoted her time and talents
as female Physician and nurse,
principally among children. She has
especially studied the constitution and
wants of this numerous class, aud, as
result of this effort. and practical
knowledge, of obtained in lifetime
spent as nurse and physician, she has
compounded a Soothing Syrup. for
children teething. 1t operates like
magic-giving rest and health, and is
moreover, sure to regulate to bowels.
In consequence of this article. Mrs.
Winslow is becoming world renown-
ed as benefactor of her race; children
certainly do rise up and bless her;
specially is this the case in this CITY.
Vast quantities Of the Soothing Syrup
are daily sold and used here. We
think Mrs. WinsloW has immortaIized
her name name by this invaluable
article, and we sincerely believe thou.
sands OF children have been saved from
an early grave by its timely use, and
that millions yet unborn will share its
benefits, and unite in calling her bless
ed. No mt Their has discharged her
duty. to her suffering little ones, in our
opinion, until she has given it the

articles have recently appeared in the east

Sun says that cleanliness in and around

ance where any contagious disease is pre-
vailing, as cleanliness tends. both to pre-
vent and mitigate it. Every kind and
source of filth around in the house should
be thoroughly removed; cellars and foul
areas should be cleaned and disinfected:
dirty walls and ceilings should be lime
washed, and every occupied room should
be thoroughly ventilated. Apartments
which have been occupied by persons sick
with diptheria should be cleansed with
disinfectants: ceilings lime-washed and
wood work painted; the carpets. bed
