THE BEST soap for toilet use
ever manufactured. BEST because
it contains all the excellencies Of
the most expensive foreign or
American soaps without their de-
fects. BEST because it combines
strength with delicacy in such q
wav tk.t its strong detersive quan-
ties do not injure the skin. BEST
because it is the result Of years OF
study and experiment in the soap
manufacturing business, assisted
by modern chemical discoveries.
BEST because it contains ingred1-
ents beneficial 10 the skin, which
unite chemically with the soap
in such a manner as to increase
it's saponaceous qualities. Every
chemist familiar with soap manu-
facture knows that some ingred1-
ents which are in themselves bene-
fetal to the skin cannot be saponl-
fed; some are partially neutra!lzeds
while others injure the quality OF
the soap. There are soaps in the
market which are to some extent
beneficial to the skin, but they are
inferior articles for toilet use:
PHOSPHATE SOAP is the ONLY
article offered to the public which
combines all the best elements OF
toilet soap with medical 1ngred1-
onts beneficial to the skin.
If your wife is in the habit Of
using cosmetics Of any kind, advise
her to give up the pernicious prac-
tice, as the most harmless face
powders obstruct tho pores of the
skin and sooner OR later injure the
complexion, while PHOSPHATE
SOAP removes all impurities and
assists nature in developing nats
ural. healthy and beautiful skin.

THE TWO DELEG ATOMS.

A correspondent very justly inquiries for
the whereabouts of the ten Window boomers
who were sent from Minnesota to Chicago.
Their return has not been heraIded and they
have been allowed to sink into the oblivion
which overwhelmed the boom they repre-
sented. The mercy of silence has been al
lowed to overtake them.
The delegation from Minnesota to
the Cincinnati Convention has returned over
whelming with honor and approval. They
have not only received mark of public
esteem but men seek them personally to
take them by the hand and return their
thanks. In Chicago, Minnesota was men
toned only with epithels of contempt and
the delegation stole back into the State as
quietly as possible. In Cincinnati Mime
sofa occupied the post of honor all the
time. Her delegation was counted her counsel
sought and the attention bestowed upon the
State was far beyond what ten votes would
naturally be supposed to command. To
be at Cincinnati was to crafty State pride.
10 be at Chicago was to create feeling of
shame and modification no matter what
party you represented. The State was
Inundated and the delegation was the laugh
ing stock ot the town. No Minnesotian
could have failed to feel ashamed for the
State and it is no wonder that the chairman
of the Republican State central committee
rushes into print to argae that they were not
quite fools,

Special Telegram to the Globe.
TorEKA, June 27.-While there las been a
total failure of all crops in extreme counties
in the State, the calamity does NOT extend to
the middle and eastern part where rains
have been more abundant and where the
yield he's been generally good. The wheat
crop has been cut short, although in most of
the wheat counties the yield has surprised
many, the grain being extra good and the
heads filling well. In some localities the
harvest is fully up to the average crop.
Taking all the reports as they coma in TO the
State board of agriculture from reliable
farmers all over the State. it is safe to say
that the wheat yield for the State, including
the increased acreage, will come up to one
half, possibly two-thirds of tho average
crops. As to corn the prospects promise a
very large yield.

ANoKA, June 26.-An informal ratifca-
ton meeting, organized by Geo. H. Fair
banks and other veterans of the war, who
served in Gen. Hancock's brigade, was held
in the public square this evening. One
hundred guns were fired, big bon fires blazed,
and transparences adorned with the names of
Hancock and English, bearing the notices.
"No Electoral Commissions in Oars,'
Counting in Played Oat," "Eight to Seven
Won't Win This Time,' were noticeable in
the brilliant illumination. The nesting was
addressed by w. Hammond, Egg, of this
city, who, among other matters, alluded to
the remarks of the Pioneer Press that Gen.
Hancock's abilities as statesman had been
confined to single act, and said: ''r hat if
in single act of craftsmanship Gen. Han
cock had succeeded in winning the respect
and admiration of his late opponents. and
in wreathing his name with glory SIS sup
porter and defender of constitutional liberty,
we may we'll trust that during the next
Presidential term, which he is sure TO hold,
if he lives, we shall enjoy period of pros

TIE greatest confidence is expressed
among the Pennsylvania Democrats of
their ability to carry that Slate in Novem-
Der. No citizen of the old Keystone State
is more popular than Gen. Hancock, He
was born and reared there, his family con-
nections are still in that commonwealth, and
he is universally esteemed for his many
good qualities of both mind aud heart. It
would surprise no one to see Pennsylvania
give a rousing majority for her fsvorite
son.

His Purity aud PO,Uer.

With such a leader we may securely look
to great triumph. There is not a crevice in
his armor, nor stain upon his shield. He
is man whom the country has held uni
formly in honor, and has SO guided himself
in the discharge of the many and great du-
ties of war and of peace that no party or
section can be found even to hesitate a
doubt Of his patriotism, his purity or his
power to bear the burdens of the RESPONSE
bility and to handle the weightiest affairs.

The Forecast of VictOry.

The forecast of victory, inspired by the

The boys in blue and the boys in grey hsve
one leader now. Their line reaches the whole
length of the land, and it can not be broken.
The supremacy of the civil over the NIL
itary power, the restoration of the I'M
ion as it was, the maintenance of the con-
stitution az it is, and home-rnle everywhere,
are the ideas which this nomination repre-
sents.

"Happy is it for the Democratic party,
fortunate is it for the people of the Uuited

made SO wise a decision. Without dispsrage-
ment of other candidates, each of whom
bad his peculiar elements of strength, it may
be safely asserted that no man would have
evoked greater enthusiasm or infused into
the public mind stronger confidence of vic
tory than the name of this gallant son of
the Keystone State. He will sweep the
soldier vote. An irresistible impulse will
prompt them to follow his standard. Thou
sands of voters, who support the best man
regardless of previous affiliations, will be
compelled to vote for Hancock, on whose
fair record there is no blot, whose fame has
not BEEN furnished by Credit Mobelier,
whose reputation has not been compro-
missed by a Ds Golyer corruption fee, and
whose oath does not stand contradicted by a

A Man of Spot1ess Character.
New York Sun.

He is man of spo.Iess character. Amid
ell the opportunities of high command in 8
civil war, and of military government over a
conquered State, no corruption has ever been
tolerated by him. Against his illustrioas,
patriotic services not single wrong can be
alleged. His nomination; more nearly that
that of others who might have been selected,
presents the same great issue which would
have been presented by the nomination of
TiIden. A lifelong Democrat, and justly
exercising great Influences among his fell
low-ciizsns, be had no lot or part in devils
ing or ensctiDg or applying the unconstitu-
tional electoral commission. He stands for
the constitution and its method, and for the
right of the people to govern themselves
thereby; while his antagonist General Garfield
ono of the infamous eight by whom the
commission was made a mere instrument for
setting aside the will of the country
for the electoral fraud Of 1876. We cen have
10 doubt as 10 the final decision between the
representatives of these opposing systems.
