MALARIA

Malaria is an almost i'll

very little question, but this
opinion is substantiatcd by
facts. Malaria does not nee
cssarily mean chills and

usually accompany it. 1t

70 tnat II our party will only act with
wisdom and prudence. The Fortv-eigbth

look to the good of the whole country
they must see to it that the trust of the

come to tariff for revenue only. that n
tariff beyond that is unjust and uncon.

system should be abolished revenue ON

this direction, and | believe the people
VIII hold them to a strict accountability
II they do not, and that they ought to
be so held. ! believe the time has Mt

from our national politics, and | believe
the Democratic party have the graudest
opportunity any party ever had not only
to return permanently to power, but to
benefit the whole country and all the
industries and people thereof.
With these views of the duties and
responsibilities of the Democratic party
| think the lower House of the Forty

IN that body, ought to elect John G.

furnish a proof of the sincerity Of their
professions. At any rate he is my first

fresh and interesting news, and sound
instruction and teaching in reference to
the political, educational, social, moral,
agricultural, and mechanical enterprises
and movements Of our State, and also
of the country at large; and especially
because of the matured thought and
brain-power manifested in the discus
sion of these great topics, coupled as
they are with manly boldness, high
toned bearing, and gentlcmanly spirit,
qualities of heart and head, which in
very many instances, are 40 sadly want
ing in the journalism of the present
day. The CLARION seems to me we'll
deserving the classical .fortitcr in re, s,td-
utter in mode. May it ever continue to
exhibit this demeanor and present course,
and to rise higher and still higher in
public esteem, as ii certainly will do, so
long rs it maintains its present status,
and when your labors as journalists shall
have ended, may you have the pleasing
satisfaction that your work of inform

been faithfully, and at the same time
successfully done.

THE INTERNAL REVENUE TAX.
Democratic Opinion.

From the thirty of the Democratic
Representatives elected to the 4Sth Con

above tax, as follows:
Thomas ]. Wood, of Indiana: Cut
down internal taxation with a sharp
knife.
