Important to Ccnsamptives

Rev. DR.. Cass, while amedical mission
airy to the East Indies, had placed in his
hands the formula for a simple vegetable
remedy for the speedy and permanent
cure of consumption, Bronchitis, Catarrh,
Asthma, and all Throat and Lung Affec-
tons; also positive and radical cure for
Nervous Complaints, Debility, etc. After
having thoroughly tested its wonderful
curative powers in thousands of cases, he
feels it duty to make it known to his
suffering fellows. The Recipe will be
sent FREE OF CHARGE to all who de-
sire it, with full directions for preparing
and successfully using. Address, with

The Northwestern University closes
to-day for Easter. Studies will be re-
sumed Tuesday next.
There will be a meagre production
of maple sugar this year in the Jefferson
county sugar bushes. The cold weather,
together with the great depth of snow
still covering the ground, interferes ma
terially with the run of sap. The sea-
son will be short one and less amount
of sugar made than for some years past.
The "Woman's Equal Suffrage AS
ISOLATION of Wisconsin" was formed at
Madison on the 9TH instant, and the fol-
lowing officers were elected: President,
Mrs. John Bascom; Vice President, Mrs.
J. E. Irish; Recording Secretary, Alice E.
Craig; Corresponding Secretaries, Mrs.
Blanche Delaplaine, Ella A. Giles and
Mrs. J. M. Oliver; Treasurer, Mrs. Will
lam Dudley. The intention is to make
a vigorous campaign in behalf of female
suffrage in the coming election. The So
ciety thus formed will be the head center
of the movement with branches to be es-
tablished in all parts Of the state.
The fate of the winter wheat in this
section is still in doubt and it will proba-
bly, be week or two before any conclu-
sion can be safely arrived at regarding its
prospects. Some reports go to show that
the crop is all right and promising, while
others indicate that it has been seriously
damaged during the winter, principally
by thick coating Office that has accumu-
lated in many fields under the snow, re-
sulting in smothering the roots.
"A pamphlet giving the results of the
use of salt on old land and in regions in
tested by chinch bugs, is issued by the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul Railway
Company for the information of farmers
along its lines. The statements given
prove conclusively the efficacy Of salt as
fertilizer, and show that its use on land
is sure preventative of rust in grain
and the ravages of chinch bugs. From
the testimony rendered sailing land is a
good investment for farmers. The late
ness of the present spring makes it partic-
ularly important that salt be used for the
coming crop. The Chicago, Milwaukee
& St. Paul Railway Company has made
such arrangements as will enable farm
ers to procure at its stations, either from
it's agents or from grain buyers, Agricul-
tural Salt at cost, adding the bare cost of
transportation. 1t may be had in bar
rels, or in bulk-the latter, however, on
ly in carloads.

The Democratiu smproxlio.

1t will be dsteru ined in a few weeks
whether tie Democratic party in this
city, will be iDfuenCsd and controlled
By II. B. McIntirs or Martin Farrell, in
the coming campaign. The choice OF
Mayor and members Of Council will
depend in great measure upon the
harmonious solution OF this question.
The party cannot be successful without
the aid OF McIntire, and the same may
be said in reference to Farrell. They
must unite their forces or the party
will be defeated, and the city Offices
pass out Ct their hands. Mr.. McIntire
Is tie occupant of u very snug Office,
with a salary OF $1,000 per annum, and
therefore may be readily placated.
Mr.. Farrell will not be controlled by
any such confederation holding no Of
nee whatever, and at the same time
feeling some resentment against promi.
neat members Of tie party who con-
tributed TO his overwhelming defeat al
the last election. Il Is certainly uL-
reasonable to suppose that he will labor
earnestly for the success Of the party,
after having been treated 30 badly, uu-
less he shall be given a place on the
ticket, or PLACED az tue head OF the or
ganizatiOn. His popularity and inhu
ence cntitle him to the nomination for
Mayor or some other important position.
He certainly oanuot be ignored entirely
without rendering ths SUCCESS of the
party impossible. We wait with some
degree Of interest the solution of the
d ficulty alluded to.
