MARsH.s RECORD.

For two days In succession the U9sS0n
gave its readers the legislative record of
Hon. w. II. Niece. the object being to
convince them that he was temperance
man, therefore unworthy their support
Now, as the ARGUS understands it, temper
| ance is not a democratic disqualification
for Office holding but prohibition is. Any
body knowing aught of the record OF Mr..
Neece knows that his definition of tenn
perance covers a broad ground; he does
not confine it to the use of alcoholic stimu-
lants and never did, but he is no believer
in prohibition an any form. believing that
the people of this broad land are well able
to settle the question for themselves. How
is 1t with Marsh2 In order that the peo-
pie of this congressional district might
judge for themselves OF the rank hypoc-
risy of the republicans in this campaign.
and also knowing that mere assertion goes
for nothing in this age of the world s history,
the ARGUS has been at infinite pains to pro-
cure from the National capital direct. the
congressional record of Mr. Marsh, so far
as two great questions of the day, (prohi-
bition and woman suffrage are concerned.
To day, therefore. we are enabled to pub |
lish copious extracts fromthe Congressional |
Record bearing upon the subject in ques-
ton, and revealing Mr.. Marsh posing be- |
fore the nation as an avowed temperance |
fanatic. If he has been using the livery |
of heaven to serve the devil i'm it is no |
particular concern of the ARGUS, but we
are profoundly grateful that with the aid |
OF the Washington publication referred to
even great men can leave their footprints
upon something like the sands of time
VIII the Union and its deluded followers
the republicans of this district
Mr.. Marsh's views on the tenn
perance question, so blatan.ly mouthed at
Washington or will they put up or shut
lp?" The inside of to-days ARGUS tells
5he story and nobody can. truthfully charge
either garbling or Justification It has
been said give rogue rope enough and
he win hang himself" The Union now
hiding itself strangled will be able to turn
IS attention more to news gathering than
y HOS ACACtOtOiCs AT fCshSt Inc AHtfBS
ropes so. Ii
Once for all the ARGUS states, as q
ruisn, that Hon. W. Ell. Niece has no
whatever, with either prohibi-
ion or prohibitionists, believing the whole I
Movement to be conceived in sin and I
rought forth in iniquity' for the especial I
enefit of few would-be Office holders.
But how is it with Marsh2 If there's pro- '
in this country he is the man. 1t
The ARGUS sympathizes deeply with the
1ns0n in its uncomfortable fix but us one
aust always fight the devil with fire, . in
Their words turn the enerny's weapons r
gainst himself If that be possible, our I
ounden duty to the whole people of this +
district has been partially '
erformed. Ir
But what can be saia of the poor fellows, | il
'7aion and all; who have drawn the enemy's ! G
re and stand out in the MONDAY of the \
snkest exposure of the age? O, hypocrisy; Eli
~ name is anything to-beat Neece. IL

alternately Shaken and scorehed


By the par6xysms of chills and fever, the
wretched sufferer for whom quinine has been
prescribed essays in vain to exterminate the
dreadful disease with that hurtful palliative,
which at best only mitigates the violence of
the fits, and eventually proves highly injuri-
ous to the system. Ii order to effect thor
ough cure OF malarial fever, whether inter
mittent or remittent or to render the system
impregnabls to its attacks, Hostetters
Stomach Bi.ters should be used daily. That
this medicine is a searching eradicant of dis
eases generated by miasma, and a reliable
safeguard against them, is fact SO widely
recognized in this and other countries that to
adduce evidence in support of it is unneces-
sary ; but were 1t either essential or desirable
to do So it may we'll be supposed that from
the testimony corroborative of its claims,
which has been accommodating during the last
twenty-five years and over, sufficient proofs
might be gathered to convince the most ip-
veterate skeptic

THE SUNDAY LAW TEMPEST.

Concerning the charge of Shaeffer, of the
League of Freedom, that Colonel Babcock.
Of the Home Protectionists, offered to sell
out the cause of the latter, G. NJ Johnson
makes affidavit that he has been for some
time trying to make money out of the
League of Freedom by giving it all the
tectionists relative to their plans that he
took Shaeffer to Babcock's Office and left
them together !; that Babcock consented to
the meeting in order to find out what
scheme was on foot, and that he repeatedly
declared he would have nothing to do with
the Leaguers, and that he believed some
plan was on foot to injure him
seriously, and at no time did
he show an inclination to 81 deal with the
Leaguers. johnson says he makes the
statement because Shaeffer and Buhlert, of
the League, broke faith with him. Mr..
Babcock supplements this with a state
ment says be learned indirectly that the
Leaguers wanted to employ him on their
side +; he peremptorily refused, and COM
municated the facts to DR.. Mcdonald and
others. Shaeffer and Johnson called on
him March 16sh, and the latter at once
vanished. He at once set about to draw
Shaeffer cut, and has no doubt but that
Shaeffer attempted to draw him out" in
turn, and neither effected their object. He
says: 81 exercised all my ingenuity to
draw from him proposition, and think
did say that it would take money to
break up the Home Protective Association.
Now, state most explicitly and emphati-
cally that Shaeffer did not offer to buy, nor
did l offer to sell, for coin, anything
whatever nor were any of the suggestions
of mine to which he refers made with any
other purpose in view except to find out, if
possible, the secret motive that brought
him to my Office. AS to whether l de.
nounced DIR. Mcdonald, threatened the
