The utter worthlessness of the EceniRJ
DuHHess as newspaper is shown by its re-
ports of the Star-Route trial. Any day that
a periurer or blackmailer is giving evidence
that is presumed to hurt Brady or Dorsey
the Star is redolent with headlines an
nouncing to a startled world the alleged
fact, But let witness testify
ever so mildly for the defense
and the Dm'ness becomes even duller
than ever, if that were possible, aud gives
as little of the testimony as it can. This
has been exempliied over and over again.
But its treatment of the Boone testimony.
which yesterday was entirely in favor of
the defendants, is fair specimen of its
utter want Of candor and fair play. 1t doe,
look as if it got its principles from MerriclS
and its sense of justice from Brewster
Cameron or Bowen. And this remark will
apply to the so-called metropolitan jour.

IT turns out that Benjamin Harris
Brewstei's mission to the Senate and House
last week was to prevent an investigation
by either body of the extravaganza
and infamy of his Department. In his
soldering way he insisted that to
investigate would be to defeat the ends of
jnstice-that he now had it fixed to convict
the Star-Routers, and gave as an instance
of his power the indictment of Dickson :;
tm, if an investigation is had it will compel
disclosure of the secret workings of the de-
partment and the names of its employees.
1t is trick of the defense to get at the
case of the prosecution, urged this brazen-
faced fraud, and it must not be done. And
we presume, therefore, Congress will sit
listlessly by and see this man and his
aiders and abettors daily robbing the
Treasury in their efforts to make a little
glory for Maudlin Ben,

OTHER HAPPY MEN.

Mr.. R. Collmus, the proprietor Of the har-
ness mandatory, Howard street near Frank
lin, baltimore, Nd, whose celebrated rigs are
TO be seen On some of the finest turnouts In
the city, said TO the reporter, who called on
him that he knew OF several cures OF rheu-
matism and neuralgia, and appealed to his
workmen 10 verify his statement.
Mr.. jacob Fornshall, foreman, stated that
he had been very much afflicted with severe
attack of hay fever, and lost a great deal of
time. He was completely cured by inhalng
the fumes of st. Jacobs oil, and always has
1t on hand in his house. His wife was very
much relieved in an attack of rheumatism,
and his boys were cured of growing pains by
one application OF the great remedy.
Mr.. c.. Knauff, Of this same establishment,
said: had pains In my back and arms and
sunefed q great deal. was completely cured
by few applications of st. jacobs OIL. Tho
men in this shop were enthusiastic In their
praise OF the great pain.banisher, and referred
the reporter 10 others, among whom were Mr..

suffered for months with rheumatism of the

DR.. Hill informs us that he has
ordered a telephone to connect his
new office with his residence, and
that il will be here in a few days,
and will be in operation as soon as
his new office reaches completion.
This indicates that the doctor has
made money in his profession, as he
richly deserves to have done; and
that he is brimful of dash and enter
prise. Being one of his first patrons
when he first commenced practicing
in Russellville, 1t is but natural that
VIC should express our satisfaction
at his success.
"A tragic event happened at At
kins last Friday morning. We re-
fer to the suicide of one Mr.. Carter,
who, up to the uncomfortable crime
which lead to his death, was a most
influential and respected citizen of
that town. From private letter,
we learn the feeling of the outraged
citizens was almost TO the limit of
taking the law in in their own hands
and inficting condign punishment
on one so base, when he cut proceed
ings of every sort short by the act
of his own hand. Perhaps it is bet
ter thus, than to have remained and
kept constantly before our minds the
memory Of so vile deed in our
midst.
Our friend, DIR. w. E. Jamison,
of Quitman, paid our town visit
last week. The doctor is an old cit
izen Of Pope county. In the long
ago, he and our fellow townsman,
Capt. j. M. Harkey, launched their
boats in the town of Dover. We
would kindly suggest that perhaps
it would not be out of order for these
two staunch gentlemen to become
citizens Of the same town once more.
This could be most gracefully &C.
complished by doctor Jamison's re-
moval to the thriving town OF Rus
sellville. We hope the doctor may
sleep on is idea, and dream of the
future great prosperity of our beauti-
full little prairie city, and of the
warm welcome awaiting his coming
to assist us in working it out. The
doctor was here in the interest of a
grazing muzzle, invented by friend
of his, whose name we have forgot
ten, sample OF which he had with
him. 1t as a unique looking ar
rangement and looked like it would
be a success.

From the Akron Commercial,

Readers of the Commercial cannot well for

BY Kendall's MISUNDERSTANDING OF n
certain SPAWN Cure. We have had dealings
with DIR. endall for many years, and we
know of some large business houses in cities
5ai by, who have also dealt with him for
many years. and the truth is fully and faith
fully proven, not only that he Is a good honest
man, and his celebrated SPAWN Cure not only
all that 1T is recommended II be, but that the
English language Is not capable of recon-
mending 1t too highly.
Kendairs SPAWN cure will cure spavins.
There are hundreds OF cases in which this has
been proven to our certain knowledge, but, ar
ter all, il any person confines tue usefulness of
tins celebrated medicine to curing spavins,
they make a big mistake. IL Is the hest out
ward application for rheumatlSln in the human
family II is good for pains ana aches, swell
ings and lameness, and Is ust rs safely applied
10 men, women and children as IL is To horses.
We know that there are other good liniments
but we do believe this SPAWN cure to be far
hnttnr than any ever invented.

be held here one of the most extern

ing to that end.
1t will be grand union picnic of

ton special to every one Of the above
orders and Sunday schools in the
county, and general invitation to
like orders and Sunday schools
along the line of the L. r. d F. S.

that is that Kussellvllle will acquit
herself, with her known tact for such
occasions, and everybody may antic-
ipate day of pleasure and social
Intercourse, and, withal--to those
who may relish it--a day wherein
