letter to Representative Frame, of
Guernsey county. urging the Importance
of wool growers sending some Of their
most active and intelligent men to
Washington to represent their views on
the wool tariff question. The tariff is
now under discussion, and it looks as
though Col. Taylor's suggestion was a
sensible one. In this age every inter-
est must look out for itself.

A LITTLE over four weeks of the
present Congress remain, and yet the
Senate is dilly-dsllying with the tariff
bill, doing all in its power to cripple the
manufacturing industries of the coun-

to that administered to the Republican
party last fall, was given to some of the
distinguished gentlemen who are trifiing

On Tuesday the Ohio Senate passed
the resolution for the submission of the
Kinney amendment to the Constitution,
which provides for the repeal of the "no
license" clause, and gives the General
Assembly power to pass laws concern
ing the traffic in and sale of intoxica-
ting liquors. Under the amendment the
whole matter is left to the Legislature.
The resolution is now in the House, and
will probably pass that body.

MEssRs. j. c. AVER & Co., Gentlemen:
Last winter was troubled with most uncom-
Portable itching humor affecting more especially
my limbs, which itched so intolerably at night,
and burned so intensely, that Icould scarcely bear
any clothing over them. / was also sufferer
from severe catarrh and catarrhal cough; my
appetite was poor and my system good deal run
down. Knowing the value Of AYERS SARsAPA-
RILLA by observation of many other cases, and
from personal use in former years, began taking
it for the above-named disorders. My appetite
improved almost from the first dose. After
short time the fever and itching were allayed and
all signs of irritation of the skin disappeared MY
catarrh and cough were also cured by the same
means and my general health greatly improved,
until it is now excellent. I feel hundred per
cent stronger and attribute these results to the
use of the SARsAPARILLA, which recommend
with all confidence as the best blood medicine
ever devised. / took it in small doses three
times day. and used, in ALL less than two bottles.

Yours respectfully, Z.P. WILDs."
The above instance is but one of the many con-
stantly coming to notice, which prove the per-
feet adaptability Of AYERS SARsAPARILLA to
the cure of all diseases arising from impure or i'm
poverished blood, and a weakened vitality.

The Settled Law of the Land.

The Supreme Court of the United
States has again decided in case aris-
ing in Illinois, that State has the right
to regulate the charges of railroad com
panies within its Jurisdiction, nOt,cith-
standing.the charter of said companies, may
authorize them to fr such charges. That is
to say, the charter is subordinate to the
inherent sovereignty Of the State, which
entities it to uphold and regulate that
which pertains to the public welfare.
The principle has been enunciated by
the Court on more occasions than one,
and must be taken to be the settled law
of the land. 1t is one so essential to the
dignity, not to say the safety, of the
State, that there is no probability that
it will ever be seriously questioned. To
say that the corporation created by the
State, is or shall be superior 20 the inter
ests and authority of the State, would
be monstrous Neither the municipal
ity nor the Legislature can so say au-
thoritatiyely.

Stella, who is Is years old, formerly

She is well educated. Smith is over 80
years of age. After their marriage the
couple were obliged to leave Greenport,
the young men of the village having
made it too warm for them to remain.
Nothing daunted, they made their way
to Brooklyn and took up their abode at

They were driven from their retreat at
Crow hill by the colored residents, who
would not tolerate the bride among
them. Since then the two have lived in
a small hut in the outskirts of Jamaica.

whom were three negroes, headed by a

Friday. Mr.. Smith came to Jackson in
1884 and although he returned to his native
land nearly thirty years ago he has, in
many substantial ways remembered his old
home. 1t is fitting therefore, as a commu-
nifty, that we express to him our apprecia-
ton Of his abiding friendship, and an en-,
tertainment has therefore been arranged
for this Wednesday night, from 8 to II
o'clock, at the residence of Mr. C. II. Man.

The nti.MOnopOly Increment.

The movement against the tyrannical
use of corporate power which is COM
monty signifed in this country by the
term monopoly is gradually spreading
in both parties, but especially in the
Democratic party. One of the most Sc
rious sins of the Republican party is its
support of monopolies, and one of the
most hopeful elements in the Democrat
ic struggle for supremacy is the extent
to which the Democracy is honeycombed
by anti-monopoly. Some of the evi.
dence of this fact have been so remarka'
bic as to be truly surprising.-New Or

The two chief Democratic candidates
are Tilden and ex-senator Mcdonald.
The former has host of powerful ad-

with earnestness and discretion, which
no doubt is made stronger by the efforts
of Mr.. Tilden, who is one of the most
shrewd men of the age. His candidacy
will depend greatly, however, on his
health. Mcdonald would be strong
candidate were it not for the fact of his
quarrel with Governor Hendricks, anC
this may be sufficient to throw him out
of the race. As to General Hancock,
