A sure cure for the Blind, Bleeding, Itch.
ing and liberated Piles has been discovered
by DR.. Williams IAN Indian remedy, called
DIR. williams Indian Ointment. A single
box has cured the worst chronic cases Of 25
and 80 years standing. Noone need suffer
five minutes after applying this wondSlul
soothing medicine. Lotions, instruments,
and Electuaries do more harm than good.
Williams 70 Ointment absorbs the tumors,
allays the intense itching particularly at
night after getting warm in bed, acts as a
poultice, gives instant and painless relief,
and is prepared only for Piles, itching Of
the private parts, and nothing else.
Read what the Hon. ]. M. Cofinberry, OF
Cleveland, says about DR.. Williams Indian
Pile Ointment: 81 have used scores of pile
cures, but il affords me pleasure to say that
have never fonnd anything which gave
such immediate and permanent relief as DR..

We learn that on Monday last, a
negro man in the employ of DR.. Sill
Ger, while in the woods just back of
town, with an axe on his shoulder,
was chased by % panther. He re-
ports hearing a noise as of q baby
crying, and on looking about for the
cause, discovered the varmint slowly
descending q tree, when without
waiting for further acquaintance, the
negro took to his heels, and in his
haste to make good time threw away
his axe, and it took some persuasion
to induce him to return and get it,.

Shreveport Times: Mr.. John G.
Elstner, deputy sheriff, who took
Walter Harmon to Jackson, Tenn,
returned last evening by rail. He
delivered his prisoner safely within
the walls of the jail at Jackson. He
informs us that the citizens of Jackson
did not pay the reward of 5000 offer
ed for Harmon's capture, but that the
New York Mutual Life Insurance
Company, which Harmon claimed to
represent, paid the reward, and pro-
poses to prosecute him before the
courts cfTennessee. The citizens of
Jackson, however, paid Mr.. Elstner's
expenses from and to Shreveport.
Harmon, or j. Volney Ryan, which
is his true name. is certainly the most
fortunate and accomplished villain
that went unhung. At nearly every
station between here and Jackson
he was identified as the insurance
swindler.

THE WAR NOT OVER.

The recent advance in trunk line
ireishts Is not the result ot any smicable
understanding or settlement, but comes
from pressure OF business.
Nopermanent results have been reach-
Ell in the war Is yet. unless it be TO
demonstrate, as We think it will, that
the railroads can afford 10 make a large
reduction in the rates maintained before
the war, and vet make plenty OF money.
We are not certain bit that this very
desirable result will follow. The abund-
auce OF traffic, always increasing, has
made railroad property more valuable
ami remunerdtiye. So far from disCour-
aging the construction oi new lines as it
was given out few weeks ago the more
recent developments OF the
war demonstrate that there is
room for additional lines. Rail-
road building goes on. There is enough

SKILLED LABOR.

The argument we have, heretofore,
advanced Tor the establishment OF
technical or trade schools, ii not IN con-
nectlon with our free school system,
then Independently, is reinforced by
the continued demand for skilled labor
in a country which is growing and de-
veloping with rapidty beyond all pre-
cedent in the wOrlu's history.
An exchange remarks that "the rapl-
dity with which our cities and towns
outgrow even modern methods and
sources of supply OF light, fuel, and
transportation, and call upon advanced
science and the most exact and pro.
gressive mechanical skill Tor new and
enlarged facilities, and new processes TO
meet the new demands until CEN
tury's growth has been crowded into a
decade is truly phenomenal
AS never before in this country,
scientific research and the highest
mechanical skill is required. OF course
this demand must call for thorough
technical education, for which our educa-
tional institutions must be prepared ii
they would not be left in the back
ground, and every community should
demand that our schools be fitted up
and conducted with reference to \
thorough and practical education for all
who expect to excel IN any mechanical
calling, remembering that only the clear
braiu, the educated muscle and nerve,
and refined taste can keep up with
such progress as We have referred TO-,
and no where will the best OF education
tell better on results than in mechanical
and industrial pursuits.

REDUCTION OF INTERNAL TAXA
TON.

The report of Commissioner RAUA,
which will be submitted to Congress at
the opening oil the session, will be Of
more interest, ii not OF more utility to
the country than the Reputation
speeches he has been making in behalf
OF the Readjusters i'll Virginia.
One OF the livliest fights Of the coming
session of Congress will be over meas
ures 10 reduce the Internal taxation.
There will be a combination OF lobbyists
to effect this, and a sweeping reduction
will be demanded IN many instances.
There appear to be three principal
classes of supporters for these reduc-
tons: those Immediately engaged in the
trades now taxed, those who hope to
make political capital out OF the move
ment, and those who wish to sec in
ternal taxation reduced in order to
postpone, or il possible prevent, any re-
form in the tariff.
These classes will be made up first, OF
the politicians, pure and simple; OF the
whisky interests; the banking interests;
the patent medicine interests; and all
the collateral interests which are more
or less directly concerned.
There is no doubt that they command
considerable influence, and that efforts
will be directed to combine their forces.
Ii this can be done it will require more
nerve than Congress can command to
resist them, ii indeed they will be able
to discriminate between the reasonable
and the unreasonable demands.
RAUM's report may be anticipated to
some extent from the character of his
recommendation last year. In this he
indicated the taxes which he thought
might fairly be considered II
Congress were disposed to relieve the
people" They amounted, in round
numbers, to ST., OOO'OOO, apd were as

The movement for the admission OF
Dakota to the sisterhood oil States is
very derided, and, it is limited, will
receive the approval OF the President in
his annual message to Congress. 1t will
be urged as party measure, the Repub.
licans hoping to gain two Senators, and
will be opposed Tor this reason by the
Democrats. They had an unfortunate
experience with Colorado in 1876 Had
they not permitted Colorado to enter
the Mon the returning boards could not
have beaten Tilden, Dakota isgrowing, OF
course, but its population in 1880 was
less than a single division OF the city OF
Chicago. There is an immense territory
which, doubtless, ought to be divided
before Dakota becomes State. To en-
ter the Union is with her but a matter
OF time, but there are already large
number OF States which enjoy in the
Senate representation entire dispro-
pOrtioned to their wealth and popula-
lion. Dakota oughtn't to be in too
great hurry. There is no need, as yet,
of the thirty nineth State. The
Union is growing fast enough. Some
Senatorial timber in the territory would
be disappointed by delay, but delay will
be HEALTHY. Let Dakota knock awhile
longer. She will be able to come in
finally.
Astalwart Democratic Victory.
Philadelphia Times.
twill not surprise any intelligent OBJ
server OF current political events that
New York Yesterday elected the Demo-
cratic State ticket, with show for a
Democratic Legislature.
IL not a distinctive Democratic VIC
tory, and can't be claimed as test OF
party strength. 1t proves only that the
Stalwart Arthur Republicans prefer
Democratic victory to Garfield Re-
publican victory, and that tells the
whole story.
Both parties in New York are greatly
demOralizsd, but the boiling element OF
the Republicans has the prestige OF a
new President with all his power, and
they mean that there shall be no divided
authority in the Empire State. Tie
Garfield Republicans captured the State
Convention, nominated their ticket and
the Arthur Stalwarts defeated it.
The victory results to the Democrats,
but it is simply Stalwart slaughter OF
the Garfield followers, and the Demo
Gratis get the State by default. 1t is, in
facts Stalwart rather than Democratic
victory, and the jubilant Democracy OF
New York should send up their most
enthusiastic huzzas for Arthur and Conk-
ling as the authors OF their triumph.
