A POWERFUL REMEpy.-While 50 many
deceptive decoctions are advertised as rene
dies, there is occasionally some article
brought ON the market. which is bona iide
what it purports TO be. One of the latter
class is DR.. Henley's Celery, Beef and Iron,
manufactured by Tuthill. Cox & Co.. at 537
Clay street. The three componenis of this
remedy form the tonic for the blood, food
for the brain, Strengthens the nerves, and
forms anutritive and inyigorator of the en-
tire system. Well-known chemists and
medical men attest the value of the prepar-
alton and the thousands who have been
benefited by it give the best testimony OF
its worth. All those suffering from all
ments of the nerves and heart, headache
and loss of strength, should not fail to
make daily use of this powerful remedy.

EDS. REcoRD-UNIoN Many unfavorable
comments having been INDUCED in at
times concerning Sacramento, charging
sclGshness upon the part of its citizens and
Il disposition to overcharge and fleece visitors
to that city, for hotel ana other accommoda-
tons, on public occasions, we take the
greatest pleasure in saying that from an ex-
periencc of over two weeks during the recent
State Fair, where we were engaged as COM
mittec in charge of the san Joaquin exhibit
made by Stockton Grange, we found not
only no ground whatever to exist for
such insinuations, but. on the contrary.

with the utmost courtesy and consldcra-

thing more than usual and fair prices.
The State Agricultural Association, from
its Directors and officers To the least of the
employees, extended the utmost assistance
and courtesy, not only TO us. but, SO far as
VIC saw, TO all
We deem this statement but just, in cor
rection of erroneous impressions that may
be entertained concerning Sacramento, and
surely no isolated cases of overreaching
WHICH, itiN I III lHG past aiiu
which are to be found occasionally in the
best ordered communities, should in any
manner be spoken of or regarded as char

and any such destinations or charges we
are satisfied are unworthy of thought, as
also unjust in the extreme.

Savannah morning news. [volume] (Savannah) 1868-1887, 1884-08-20

The Governor Of Louisiana does not
appear to meet with much success in his
attempt 10 wipe out the little speck of
war in Iberia parish in that State. 1t
made its appearance soon after the cleo
tion last spring, and there it has remained
ever since. Two men claim the Office Of
District Judge. Fontellieu was the Occu-
pant Of the office and a candidate
for reelection. He is Repub-
lican. but is native and
a member Of one Of the old Creole families
Of the parish. Gates was the Democratic
candidate. The returning officers re-
turned him as elected and the Governor
commissioned him. Fontellieu claims
that he was elected and counted out. He
doesn't propose TO submit to what he calls
a great wrong. Hence, the speck Of war.
It seems as if the Governor ought to have
shown himself master Of the situation
before this. He has all the militia he
needs to execute his orders. The trouble
seems to be that his orders when executed
don't stay executed.
This seems to indicate that FOntellieu
is backed by q pretty strong sentiment in
the parish. Is it not possible that he was
really elected. and that the friends Of his
opponent had control Of the ballot boxes?
a man who was fairly beaten, if endowed
with reasonable sense, would hardly be
50 contentious without some excellent
reason.
1t is a remarkable fact that the Legisla-
ture which convened in May did not
settle the trouble by trying FOntellieu
on The articles of Impeachment which
were presented against him. Can it be
possible that there are facts connected
with the controversy which it was
thought not desirable to make public:
To say the least of it the Legislature
doesn't appear to have acted straight
forward and courageous part.
There are two factions in the Demo-
cratic party of Louisiana. 1t has been al
legged that the faction that controls the
State won its position by means that are
open to criticism. The FOntellieu-Gates
trouble may not become more serious
than it is at present. but it is pretty GER
tain that there win be other and perhaps
more dangerous troubles in Louisiana of
a similar character if the will Of the ma
JOrity is not respected.

1t seems to be plain that the govern
ment has no intention of bringing civil
suits against the alleged star route
thieves. All things considered, it is
probably better, as far as the Treasury is
concerned, that the suits shouldn't be
brought. If the government was unable
to get verdicts in criminal cases against
the delinquents, it is pretty fair to con-
clude that it wouldn't succeed in getting
judgments in civil suits. To prepare the
cases, therefore, and TO try them would be
only wasting money.
1t is probable that Attorney General
Brewster has been sincere in this star
route business from the beginning. but it
is certain that he lacks judgment, or
something that appears 10 be necessary
to success. Perhaps he is getting too old,
or that he gives too much attention to his
remarkable clothes to attend to the duties
Of his responsible position as they ought
to be attended to. There never was a
more complete failure than the govern
ment prosecution Of the star route cases.
Mr.. Brewster halfway promised TO re-
deem himself and restore the credit of his
department by making Dorsey, Brady
and the rest disgorge their alleged ILL
gotten gains. He isn't doing anything
to fulfill this promise. One lawyer after
another has abandoned the cases because
Mr.. Brewster proposed to tie them up so
that they would not have the least chance
of success. The last one, Bradley, Of
Kentucky, was so disguised with Brewster
that he declined to receive the amount
that he had expended for personal ex-
penses while in Washington.
There is no probability of Furnishing the
star route or any other rascals that have
influence or money with which TO defend
themselves while Brewster is Attorney
General. Indeed, there is no prospect of
Furnishing such rascals while the Repub-
lican party has control of the government.
What stronger arguments then, can there
be for turning the control of the govern
ment over to the Democrats than that
such change is necessary to secure the
punishment Of the rascals who have been
~f,s..

Betting on the Election.

Advices from the principal cities of the
Union indicate that the sporting gentle
men are not taking hold of the election
yet with any great degree Of yigor. Usu-
ally, betting on the result Of national
election begins as soon as the candidates
are fairIy.in the field, but there are so
many "ifs' and sands" in the present
outlook that betting men, with few ex-
ceptiOns, are holding their money for
further developments.
When it is remembered that ''mOney
talks" and exposes the true judgment Of
sporting men, it is rather discOuraging to
be deprived Of view Of the political ba-
rOmeter through the timidity of the men
who manage it. There are many people
who believe that betting men have secret
avenues Of information as to the chances
of success of the different candidates.
This is one of the popular errors of the
day. They get the same information
from the daily papers that other intelli-
gent men get and they must draw their
conclusions therefrom.
In the present canvass the leading sport
ing men so far appear to be holding of.
They are afraid TO 90 very heavy on their
favorites, but they keep up a continual
hum of chin music. In the Republican
communities the Blaine men are conf
dent. and in several instances Cleveland
men have covered bets at con-
siderable odds. In some of the
other cities, the Democrats have
offered odds. Even betting is the general
rule. The New York Times of Monday
has four columns of dispatches from the
different betting centres giving some idea
of the status of affairs. 1t seems that
where the parties are about equally
divided both parties are afraid to put
much on the issue, for the merest acct
dent may decide in favor ef the one or the
other.
There seems to be plenty money in the
country for betting purposes, but it will
probably be September or October before
much Of it Will be staked on the election.
1t may laceIate Mr.. Dana's heart, but
truth requires it to be said that nobody is
going around, half wild, offering to bet
two to one on Gen. Buffers election.

Improving Darien Harbor.

The United States Engineers Depart
ment has issued an order to have a report
prepared as to whether Darien harbOr and
the Altamaha river, from Daren to its
mouth, is worth improving. Capt.
Thomas y. Bailey, who is in charge of the
work of improving harbors and rivers on
the South Atlantic coast, viii make an
examination and submit a report
respecting the commerce Of
Darien and its prospective de-
mands as far as he can secure the neces-
sary data. Capt. Bailey will be glad to
receive any information that viii assist
him in the preparation Of his report.
Darien is one Of the largest lumber mar
kets IN the world. The Altamaha flows
through immense tracts Of pine forests.
Along the banks of the river
are prosperous communities. With the
growth of Georgia, Brunswick and
Darien, and probably other places located
on deep water estuaries, as well as Savan-
nah, must have a steady-in some in
stances a rapid-increase in wealth and
population. The business men and
officials Of Darien will consult their own
interests by aiding Capt. Bailey in every
way that they can.

The Composition Of the Court and jury
ReFore which the Case will he Tried

The Composition of the Court and jury
Before which the Case will be Tried.
MIR. Blaine's libel suit against the In
dianapolis Sentinel, says Washington
special to the Philadelphia Times, is just
now the absorbing political topic here. 1t
is generally characterized as a clever
move of Mr.. Blaine's, outside of any
moral considerations. Even the most
skeptical Democrats are inclined to con-
cede Blaine's shrewdness III hitting the
head Of the scandal where it will do him
the most good. There is a great deal of
transformation about the status of the
case Of Mr.. Blaine against Shoemaker,
The term of the United States Court
which begins in Indianapolis in Septem-
Der may last as long as Oct. Is, and the
case Is to be pushed to immediate trial.
The fact that Judge Woods occupies the
bench will facilitate this. Woods is from
the northern part of Indiana, is an able
lawyer, sound jurist, and, what is of
most Importance in this case, bitter Re-
publican partisan.
The process Of selecting a jury for such
cases has been greatly modified, however,
within the last few years. The names of
the Jurymen which are to try Blaine VS..
two Jury Commissioners appointed by the
Court, one from each of the two leading
political parties. They select the names
and put them in the jury box. Three
hundred names are LOW in the jury-bOX
for the coming September term. This is a
general statute and has an interest now
only from the fact that the mode of trial
in such cases was a suggestion of Gov.
Hendricks and was introduced in the Sem
a nv
passed in the session of 1S19-SO.
Judge Woods is political lawyer him
self and got his place through services to
his party and the friendship of Judge
Gresham. In return, Woods was at Chi
cagO in June in Gresham's interest as
against Harrison for the Presidency.
Harrison had recommended Judge Hines
for the Judgeship, but Gresham beat him
with Woods. The United States Marshal
is Gen. r. :. Foster, and this appoint
ment fell to Senator Harrison. The fact
may be very convenient to Mr.. Blaine, as
Harrison is now his attorney. Mr.. Fos-
ter was appointed to succeed Col. Dud-
ley, now Commissioner of Pensions. The
United States Marshal has nothing to do
with the jury, unless the panel of 800 is
exhausted. His duties are merely minis
terial.
The impression here is that much po-
litical capital is to be made out of the In
dianapolis trial and that Blaine has Har-
rison and Harrison has the court. Col.
Shoemaker enjoyed the sensation of a Ii
bel suit IN the campaign of 1890, Col. Dud-
ley, then United States Marshal, being
the complainant. The editor had charged
that Dudley had issued a certain political
circular to deputies to control the cleo
ton. The suit never came to trial, as the
Sentinel published a retraction and paid
the cost of the case and the complain
ants attorney fees.
