The attitude of both parties in Virginia on
the debt question is bad, and if that were
the only question presented to the voter he
might as well let the toss of a cent decide his

victory for the Democrats win be speedily
followed by a return to the old order of

Any little contribution which the ssDemo-

hard, and of course large contributions
are not to be expected, but if every Democrat

THE RESTRICTION ACT.

The Chinese agitation of the
present time is due to the non-en-
forcemento of the Chinese restriction
law. 1t is now four years since the
first act went into effect, and there
is reason to doubt If the Chinese
population on this coast has de-
creased in that time. If the law
had been executed, and its effects
were visible in thinning out Of
the undesirable population, the peo-
pie would be content, The Call
says: An evil which is in certain
progress of being removed ceases to
be public danger. The President
has sent troops to Washington Ter
rltory to preserve order. The only
disturbance threatened was the as
sembling Of sufficient force to com
pei the Chinese to leave, The peo-
pie were trying to do what Congress
has declared should be done, but
which the officials charged with ex-
ecuting the law had failed to do,
Between department rulings, the
liberal construction of the law by
the courts and the inefficient ad-
ministration of the White House,
the law has been practically nulli-
fed. The President, Of course,
feels called upon to enforce the law
protecting Chinese from violence,
His action in this respect would
have received more thorough en-
dorsement if he had shown as much
solicitude to execute the restric-
ton law. The Arthur Cabinet
knocked the law senseless, and
Cleveland has left it where it fell.

STOCKTON ED
ITORS.

The people of Stockton have de-
cided to start cremation society
and the new idea has received
quite boom. All who join the
society sign a pledge to be burned
instead of buried.
Messrs. Colnon & Cosgrove of
the Stockton Mail, have joined and
purchased stock. To meet the ca
daverous Colnon in the flesh, you
would think that he had already
passed through a frey furnace, and
had most of the flesh burned off
him. In his present state he has
not fat enough on his ribs to make
a sizzle, aud Cosgrove is about as
bad.
A new furnace has been built in
Stockton, and it is estimated that
with half ton of coal you can re-
duce a man so that his ashes will
Just about fill Booths oyster cat.
We believe that we could take
cigar box and get enough timber
out of it to cremate Colnon, and
Cosgrove too, if it wasn't for their
feet.
But these matters, probably, cut
no figure in the erection Of a ere
matory in Stockton. It is a safe
bet that when they fire it up they
will discover that it is just about
as hot as the regular temperature
of Stockton in the Summer months.

BREAD.
AN ABSOLUTELY PURE EXTRACT OF
MALT.
VALUABLE TONIC AND REMEDIAL
AGENT,
INDORSED AND RECOMMENDED BY TIL
ENTIRE MEDICAL FRATERNITY.

OF all medicinal preparations that have been put
upon the market in recent years, the extract of
malt has proved itself one of the most valuable
as tonic or remedial beverage. 1t has received
the unqualified recognition and support OF ply
sicians and is freely prescribed by them in many
cases, especially where the nervous or physical
systems have been impaired by disease or over
work. The house of "DANID NICHOLSON, -
of this city, has recently introduced a pure malt
extract OF high character, made at their request
and under their suggestions by Mr. Adolphus
Busch, and which is popularity known as mich
OLSON'S LIQUID BREAD" from its Hfe-giving
and healh-restoring properties. A sample SUBJ
mitted to DIR. F. L. James was made the subject
of Il chemical analysis by him, and the result of
his investigations are gwen in the appended GER
tificate:
EST. LOUIS, April %, 1884
.'W. f. COULTER, Esq, National Druggist-Dear
Sir: Having submitted the Nicholson malt ex-
tract to examination as requested, take pleasure
in reporting that find it to be all that the pro-
prietors claim for it. The results, shown in the
following summary, are necessarily only approx
mate, but are sufficiently accurate for all practical
purposes
"The specimens submitted consisted of an
effervescing fluid, dark brown by direct and of a
deep ruby color by transmitted light, resembling
IN general appearance and behavior very supe-
rior article of porter, Its taste was, however,
much mllder and more pleasant than porter, be-
ing somewhat sweeter than beer. the sweetness
masked and covered by very pleasant bitter,
derived evidently from hops. The specific gravity
of a sample fresh .om the bottle is 1922 plus.
metres of the fluid is $3.50 grammes, or about per
cent. Amount of alcohol, per cent. is 2.s4 plus.
Inc eXIractVe matter is apparently 1dentlcai with
the "extractum maltis" of Trommer, or of the
German Pharmacopoeia. 1t consists almost
tirely of malt sugar, dextrine, being free from
fatty acids, etc. The fluid contains very large
amount of diastase, shown by the fact that it
easily hquefes an equal bulk of gelatinous starch
This fact, its low percentage of alcohol its effer
vescence, its delightful taste and Odor, all combine
to recommend NichOlsOn's malt extract being
most nourishing beverage, and the best article
OF the sort that has ever come under my eXami-
nation. Respectfully,
'FRAeIK L. JAMES, Phi. D., NJ. D."
