A QUEER NOTION.

Many people think it is cheaper to
bury 25 cent sizes of proprietary med
icine. But they make a mistake. For
instance. DR.. Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry contains about eight times the
quantity of ordinary 25 cent cough
balsams. Besides it takes less quan.
tity of Wistar's Balsam to cure a cold.
A single dose is often sufficient. For
deep seated Colds and Consumption it
has proven itself to be the best and
quickest cure ever discovered.

We met the enemy on the 10Th, and
as usual, got the worst Of it.. Every
inch of ground was contested, but the
Democrats used only the legitimate
means OF political warfare, whilst the
Republicans used money freely. N.
L. Wsnn knocked the head out of his
barrel, and how much of. its contents
flowed out is enly conjecturable. We
do know that he paid men for their
time to come to the polls and vote, and
said he would do SO again for men to
come up and vote right" that is,
vote the Republican ticket. Does the
Seitz law meet his case ? I call the at
tention of the Prosecuting Attorney
and the Grand Jury to the matter, for
the purpose of investigation. If the
law has been violated, there is no rea-
son why punishment should not fol-
low, no matter pW;high, the perpe-
traitor may coasidef hfnnself above the
ordinary specfmer of the genus homo.
To ordinary mortals it looks very much
like bribery. If not, could not all
eases of bribery be effcctualIy carried
out upon the plea, Of" paying for his
timer" If not criminal, it Is certainly
.demorahzing, inasmuch as it might
become Oh hronic for men to be paid
tor their time" The Democrats do
not do business that way. One illegal
vote was denied by the unanimous ac-
ton of the judges of election, but by a
regular charge Of bulldozers, led by
10. Taggert at the head and Wann at
the tail. backed by the whole Repub-
lican host, and by threats of prosecu-
ton intimidated one of the Republi-
can members of the bOard-the other
having before changed his views-and
got the vote admitted to the box. The
Democratic member of the board did
not scare worth cent. Such were the
means resorted to, and after all they
only gained eight votes over their ma
majority of last year.
Will the Prosecuting Attorney give
the naodus operandi of his political friend
N. L. Wann, any notice.? That is the
question now. Would it make any
difference if Wann was a Democrat :
That is another question. q lsBURR.
