The War Against Dunnell.

1t is difficult to understand why any
man desires to injure fellow man.
Sometimes it becomes necessary, for pub
lie reasons, to state facts, which, when
known, are detrimental to the character
and to the interests of those persons to
whom they relate. Public interests are
paramount, and no man can complain of
another for making any truthful state
ment, however injurious to him, which
may be needed for their promotions; but
that man who wilfully falsifes the acts or
the character of another under pretense
of serving the public, when in fact he
does it to crafty feeling of revenge for
fancied neglect, or more despicable still,
for lucre, OF gain of some other kind, is
one of the vilest of his race, and deserves,
like Cain, to have spot placed upon his
forehead, that he may be known to all
who see his face
1t matters little whether the injury
done, or attempted, is by direct statement
or by covert insinuation, As rule, the
first method is the more honorable one,
but not the more generally adopted, for it
involves certain degree of responsibility
both physical and pecuniary, and that is
about the last thing which the cowardly
slanderer is willing to assume.
The opposition to Hon. NJ. II. Dunnell,
which is being made in Mower county, is
of this false and slanderous character. 1t
is not an open candid statement of facts,
proving him 10 be incompetent or I'M
worthy, but it is an attempt by inference,
by assumption and by innuendo, to lessen
the public esteem in which he is held
knowing that it is impossible to do so by
telling the plain truth. Mr.. Dunnell has
been in public life in this state during the
last fifteen years, and not one of the many
damaging stories told about him by those
who are Jealous on account of his success,
nor by that more numerous class to whose
opportunities for preferment he has not
listened, has ever been procen! 1t is not
possible to prove against Mark H. Dunnell
one single act, either private or official,
within the term of his residence in Mime
sofa, which is either corrupt or unmanly.
He may have made mistakes, undoubted-
~ he has, for he is human, but the man
does not live who can show that he is, in
any sense, or for any reason, unworthy to
represent the first district of Minnesota,
in the congress of the United States, and
we say and believe that nine-tenths Of
of gaining some temporary advantage,
and are willing to sacrifice the public good
and vilify the fair name of an honorable
man whom they can neither control nor
intimidate. The people of this county
will take care of their own interests in
their own way. They take rather kindly
to any man who is the subject of unmer-
tied abuse, and we'll trust Mr.. Dunnell in
their hands. ~

SAMARITAN NERVINE

Cures Alcoholism, Drunkenness and the habit OF
Opium Eating. These degrading habits are by
far the worst evils that have ever befalen suffer
ing humanity. Thousands die annually from
these noxious drugs. The drunkard drinks
liquor not because he likes 1t, but for the pleas
ure Of drinking and treating his friends, little
thinking that he is on his road TO ruin. Like
the Opium Eater, he first uses the drug In small
quantities as harmless antidote. The soothing
influence Of the drug takes strong hold uponits
VICTIM leading him on to his own destruction
The habits OF Opium Eating and liquor Drink
Ing are precisely what eating Is 10 alimentise-
ness, as Oyer-eating first infames the stomach,
which redoubles its cravings until 1t paralyzes
both the stomach and appetite Soeyery drink Of
liquor or dose Of opium, instead OF satisfying,
only adds to its fierce fires. until 1t consumes
the vital force and then itself Like the glutton-
Gus tapeworm, 1t cries "Give, give giyel" but
never enough until its own rapacity deyOurs
itself. Samaritan Nervine gives instant relief
in oil such cases. II produces sleep, qniets the
nerves, builds up the nervous system, and re-
stores body and mind to n healthy condition.
