No preparation has ever performed such
marvellous cures, or maintained so
wide a reputation, aS AYERS CHERRY
PECruRAI., which is recognized as the
worlds remedy for all diseases OF the
throat and lungs. Its long-continued
series of wonderful cures in all cl-
mates has made II universally known
as a safe and reliable agent to employ,
Against ordinary colds, which are the
forerunucrS of more serious disorders,
1t acts speedily and surely. always re-
Loving suffering, and often saving life.
The protection It affords, hy its timely
use in throat aud chest disorders,
makes il an invaluable remedy TO be
kept always on hand in every home.
No person can afford to be without 1t,
and those who have once used 1t never
viii, From their knowledge OF It's
composition and operation, physicians
use the CHERRY PGCroRAL extensively
in their practice, and clergymen recon-
mend It, 1t is absolutely certain in
its healing effects and win always
cure where cures are possible.
For sale by all druggists.

THERE are still many who do not
buy ready made clothing for the
accommodation of such MIR. J Del.
Ter keeps large stock OF cassimeres,
worsteds, beavers, vestings, etc, in
fact everything Pertaining to n first
class tailoring establishment. Not
only does DelIer keep first class ma
terial but oil garments are made up
and furnished in first class style. All
this done at a very moderate ad
vance over ready made clothing aud
every article is guaranteed to fit or
40 sale The public must see that
Deller well deserves the patronage
that is extended to him.

Unjust Taxa zion.

According to the provision Of
section l2l6 of the Revised Statutes
the owner or owners of any tele-
graphic line, constructed or operated
in this state, shall pay to the State
Treasurer on or before che 10th
day of January, in each year, as q
license fee for operating such tele-
graph, one dollar for each mile of
line so operated AS the law is
now practiced and understood, the
owner or owners Of such telegraphic
lines report thc number Of miles Of
poles to the State Treasurer on or
before January 10th of each year,
regardless of the number of wires
on pole, or the amount Of business
done on a wire, Each of the little
lines between Mineral Point and
Dodgeville and the one fir ON Platt-
vile TO Lancastel, IA Grant county,
having only one wire on their poles,
pay as much tax per mile as any
telegraphic line in the state; pay
precisely the same as though they
bad half . dozen wires on their poles
and did one hundred times the busi-
ness they now do. There is no
uniformity in such taxation, and no
justice. Each farmer is assessed and
every merchant is assessed accord
ing TO the value of his property, aud
pays taxes in the same ratio, but
here IS an instance where taxation
is enforced without reSar q the
value of the property or its annual
| income.
In the past few years a great
amount has been inves ted in the
telephone business; it has become
almost public necessity, and is OF
] great value, but such property is
not taxed at all. No ma tier how
valuable or how useful, it bears nc
burden in paying the expenses Of
sustaining the government, either
generally or locally. The attention
of the next legislature is invited to
consider the problem of adjusting a
little more equally the burden OF
taxation.

of "the campaign liar" There is
not a word of truth in it. The
National Brewers convention hat
no more to DO with the nomination
of General Rusk, or in the remotest
way suggested his nomination, h-..
it had with directing the movement S
OF the comet last summer. 1t hard
ly becomes minister of the Gospel

sake of promoting what he thinks q

The Western Part OF the County
Heard From.

Mr.. EDIToR:-In .iew of the near
approach Of the November election
would it not toe well for ,he think
ing men OF the prohibition party to
look the issues of tie day squarely
in The face aud see what is 10 be
gained by soyering old parsy ties
Certai nly no sane man III the TEN
perance ranks thinks that the new
movement OF the prohibition party
can possibly sur ceed Then what
are the logical deductions of this
new movement, if not success ? My
experience leads me TO the following
conclusion: First, that the great
element of the new party are from
the rank Of the republican party
Next, that by such action on the
part Of republican temperance men,
they weaken the party who has al
ways given them support, and thus
strengthen the democratic party who
never has and never will give any
support to legislation measures Of a
prohibition character while the re
publican party has often, and now
has, leaders who not only give those
leading measures their moral sup
port, hut are earnest workers in the
cause Of temperance. This loads MS
to ask why prominent democrats are,
at this time, such earnest advocates
of this new partyl Certainly not
because they themselves intead to
support this new party! Not by any
means. But the more they can
spread this detection in Che republic
can ranks, the better chances Of sue
cess for the party Of dead issues
who's leaders are able to follow the
scent of an office as closely as
South Carol ina blood hound the trail
Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1881-11-03

of negro, and quit as eager to eat
up the product of the chase. Now,
n conclusion, does any honest re-
publican voter think that bv divid-
,dg ana sindering their connection
with the old reliable party, who for
years have advocated the very prin-
ciples for which they now contend,
can in any manner benefit the tenn
perance cause From my stand
point as temperance man, | can
see no vantage ground in new
party. Then, besides, rs a matter
of political equity, no political
structure can be raised upon one
issue. Our interests are barred, and
a party plat!3rm must naturally
touch upcn those Interested, other
wise VIZ would have party sectional
discord. Hoping the readers of this
communication who may have con
ttlnplated making political chance
of base, will cook before they leap,
ponder well and carefully the cause
at issue, and not only decide on the
part of truth and sound judgment,
but vote the same way to the end,
that that exemplary, temperate,
manly and soldierv gentleman, Jere
Rusk, may have a rafting major

TEMPERANCE MEN, before voting
note what the "strsi ght out Demo.
cratic Dodgeville SW1 has to say
about the candidates for Assembly
in this county:
Mr.. Rewey is a pronounced tem-
perance man, and will uudoubta dly
favor al prohibition measures that
will certaialy be brought before the
Legislature by the perseveriug Kan
ouse and his allies. We suppose
Mr.. Sylvester's attitude upon this
question can be found in Che demo
cratic platform.
Mr. Bennett, we understand is in
about the same attitude regarding
the temperance question, as Rewey
and for Mr.. Ryau's position on the
question, we think we can safely
and again point to the democratic
platform.

GENERAL RUsK does not drink

form. His position relative to the
Temperance movement is precisely
the same as that of some of the best
temperance men of the state, as ex-
pressed in the letter of President
Chaplin, published on another page.
In Viroqua, the home of General
Rusk, no saloons are licensed. Yer.
non is the banner republican county
of Wisconsin, and one of the most
pronounced in temperance sentiment
In Viroqua and Vernon county TEN
