GOVERNMENT" TRoUBLEs.-An ex.
change says; Virginia will soon rival
Louisiana in pilgrimages of Republi.
can politicians to Washington to in
struct the President in regard to the
disposal of spoils and the wickedness
Of Malone. There is mixed delega-
ton there now in the interest of the
straight.out Republicans to protest
against Garfield taking sides with the
Malone Republican coalition. In a
few daysthe "naked dishonesty" crowd
will put in an appearance and endeav-
or to convince the President of the
loveliness Of the situation and the
beauties of reputation. If Garfield
don't go back on himself he will side
with the Malone crowd. IfGrant and
Conkling are to be believed his moral
honesty is not to be relied on, and if
he can cheat both sides he will but il
he can't then he will range himself on
the worst side.

The Pine Grove Herald says; "There
resides in Wayne township, on the
Fredericksburg road, an old farmer
whose life is Insured for $4,000 by
neighbors. The old man is addicted
to strong drink, and the policy holders
carry the bad whisky TO him by the

will soon be subject TO delirium tro.

bring about his death in that manner.
This is the life insurance IN which q

"MuRDER ILLs."-Thats a proper
designation for the Cooperative plan
of life insurance, as is now cultivated or
worked up in many sections of our

nary views of mortality can defend the
scheme.
