took away my appetite and gave me dvspep.
STA. and both gave me rheumatism. then
took Sarsaparilla, etc. All these Sarsapa-
rilla mixtures have Potash in them. This
made me still worse. as it drove the poison
still further into my system A friend in.

A chronic Rheumatism which has been
paining and disturbing system of ten years
is a mighty ugly enemy to attack. 1t is like
q fiend behind q barricade-hard to hit and
harder to dislodge. Blu, Athlophoros don't
seem to fear even such . desperate. Ii FORKS
its way into his fastness in the system, and
Gusts him without ceremony. Says Mr.. II.
Charlie, Muskwonago, Wis: my brother
has been taking Athlophoros for Chronic
Rheumatism of ten years standing. 1t is do
ing all you claim for it. His pain is gone,
and his limbs are warm and lifelike''

The remarks OF Mr.. Hatch. Missouri
were not very comforting to his demo-
cratic associates. He talked right out
in meeting" like a person who had some
thing TO say and intended to tree his mind.
The interesting part of his remarks will
be found in the following:
What the democratic party wanted was
fuuerals-funerals in New York; funerals in
Indiana; funerals IN Ohio. Laughter 1t
wanted To bury some of the bsrnacles and
corpses that had been hanging to il. 1t had
a national committee sit here "A few days ago
and majority of that committee did not
even have originality or Independence
enough to find place in the United
States wherein to hold a convention out
side of the place where the repub-
iican convention was to he held He had
travelled long enough in the wake of the old
barnacles of the democratic party following
the republican party. He wanted little new
blood in t. a little independence in it, little
originality in it. Before he would have fol-
lowed the republican party he would have
gone to Los Angeles. He would have gone
where the thermometer reached 400 degrees
below zero or 500 degrees above boiling point
rather than have gone to Chicago. Laugh
ter He would have had the democratic
party possess independence enough to strike
out for once on its own hook. He defied the
intelligence of the House to introduce a
measure which had Tor its object the promo
ton of agricultural interests, and which
eopght in the slightest degree to interfere
with the operations of those gigantic and al
most monarchical corporations which control
the transportation of the country without
hA, ing some democrat attacked BY qualm
of conscience and jump on it quicker than .
duck on June bug, with a constitutions
objection. Laughter

The Lasker resolution and the action OF
Bismarck In relation to ii are not viewed
with so much complacency in Germany as
in this country. The German people are
reminded bv this matter that they are I'M
der the control of despotic government.
Bismarck has treated the Reichstag with
contempt. and given it to be understood
that opinion and speech Of individuals
must conform to the ideas and wishes Of
the government or be trampled under foot.
No officer OF the government was permit
ted to show respect to the remains Of
Lasker. because he was a liberal. and the
resolution Of respect from friendly ma
ton was treated with insult. There need
be no surprise that the German people are
indignant.

McGinnis Bros. & Fearing,s Failure.

NEW YORK, Feb LIT is announced that no
statement of McGinnis Bros & Fearings affairs
will be made for some days, as some of their Gus
toners are closing up their contracts. 1t is un-
derstood that more than one-half of the firms
liabilities are due to three creditors, who have
expressed themselves as willing to grant the firm
any extension of time desired. 1t has been pro
posed that trustee be appointed to take charge
of the firms assets in order to save the expenses
usually attending assignment. Much sym
pathy is expressed for the firm
1t is learned that the firm effected satisfac
tory settlement to-day with the Oregon & Trans
continental company, their principal creditor
and there is now no serious obstacle to their re
sumption The stocks belonging to the Oregon
& Transcontinental company, due by McGinnls
Brothers & Fearing are, it is stated 1,S00 shares
of Oregon Railway & Navigation, !, 100 shares
of Northern Pacific preferred, and 3,200 shares
of Northern Pacific common none of which can
come on the market. The total Indebtedness to
the Oregon & Transcontinental company is
placed at $97 900. In addition to $40, 600 due Mr.
Pullman the firm owes another customer about
$50 000 which fills up the entire liabilities The
assets are placed at $780, 900 or $780, 000 Mr.
Gould is said to have sent his check to-day to the
house for an amount more than enough to meet
their present demands.
