Over in Lafayette, Indiana, is distin-
guished office-holder under Cleveland,
named Williams, who is editor of pa
per- There also resides at that place a
lady named Cougar. Prohibition and
Woman Suffrage Lecturer. Williams is
said to have prosecuted and abused her
in his paper, until it became unbearable.
A few days ago the paper is said to have
cast reflections upon the lady's respecta-
bility. She asked her husband to thrash
Williams, but he advised her to be quiet.
The lady then started out to seek legal
redress, and met her slanderer on the
street She struck him with her parasol.
He attempted to take this away from her,
but could not, when he struck her with
his cane. She struck him again with the
parasol, when he ran into hotel near by.
This fellow is good specimen of his
kind-if these reports are true. The ira
ducer of female character is only fit for
club, or a coat of tar and feathers, no mat
ter what may be his position in life.

The County Convention held here last
week was representative body, of Jack
son County Republicanism. No finer
body of men ever congregated in the Coun-
ty. The utmost harmony prevailed
throughout the deliberations of the Con-
vention, notwithstanding the miserable
Democratic nonsense about wrangling in
the Convention. When a candidate saw
that he could not, in all probability, be
nominated, he gracefully withdrew in the
interest of harmony, and that was the end
of his working in opposition to other can
didates The candidates were all fair
minded men, so were the delegates. There
was therefore no possibility of quarrels
and ill-feeling. If any man be deceived
! into the belief that there was any Repub-
lican disaffection resulting from that Con-
vention, he should undeceive himself at
once. by a little investigation. The tick
ct nominated can be elected by rousing
majority, and we believe Republicans gen.
orally will do their duty next Fall. The
Democratic National Administration has
shown clearly that it is an annex to Jeff.
Davis, and that yellOW-fever or small
poX murderer, or midnight incendiary,
commands more respect from it than does
a Union solder. The people are sick of
it already, and more firmly than ever con-
WINGED that the Democratic party is not
fit to be entrusted with the management
of public affairs. There should be a clean
sweep made in Jackson County this year,
and we have faith to believe that there
will be-
The Republican party has been unfor-
tunate recently in having given to the
people one officer who proved unfaithful.
The party nevertheless turned over to his
Democratic successor the County Treas
ury without the loss of dollar through
his unfaithfulness. This is all that could
be done, and exactly the opposite of what
the Democrats did when they had full
charge of County matters. They made
way with a large amount of the peoples
money, great proportion of which never
was paid back-and never will be. That
is the way the thing has been done, and
the voters and taxpayers generally un-
derstand the situation. Remember, dear
friends, when you hear Democrat throw
ing out insinuations about County affairs
under Republican management, that he
is speaking from the standpoint of par
ty which lifted the County funds out of
the Treasury-and kept them.
Of course the usual number of wild
fabrications will be sent over the County
about Republican candidates. But just
remember. friends. that no candidate is as
mean as the man who lies about him.

Poison at the Front Door.

No article entering so generally
into the food of every family has been
found more villainously adulterated
than baking powder. For the purpose
of underselling those powders of alb
solute purity and wholesomeness
which alone are safe for use in food,
hundreds Of dealers are putting up
powders with cheap and adulterated
cream of tartar, which contains lime,
earth, etc., adding strength by the free
use of alum.
These adulterated powders are
''shoved" upon the public with the
greatet persistency. They are first
given away-left in samples at
private residences, with circulars con-
tanning bogus analysis and certificates
and false representations as to their
value, etc. This fact of itself is suf-
icient to condemn them. A first
class article will sell on it's merits.
No manufacturer whose goods are Of
value can afford to give them away,
and none but the cheapest make and
most inferior of unmarketable goods
require to be distributed free in order
to get the public to use them, and
this method is adopted only by parties
who have failed to dispose of their
wares through the ordinary and legi-
innate channels of trade.
Free samples of articles of food left
at the house should be regarded with
suspicion. There is no guarantee of
their wholesomeness, while there is
real danger that they contain a fatal
ly poisonous compound. Many in
stances of poisoning from the use of
such samples are recorded
The only safe way is to consign all
such samples Immediately to the ash
barr.l, and to turn deaf eaI to the
statements made by their venders.
It is not worth while to trife with
life and health to the extent Of test
ing every doubtful baking powder
that comes along. Better to rely
upon an old and reliable brand, like
the Royal, which has by quarter of
century's constant use proved its
perfect wholesomeness and efficiency,
or some other brand that is not so
worthless and cheap that its proprie-
tors can afford to give it away by the
cart-load. 1t is in its favor that the
Royal Baking Powder is never given
away, sold by means Of lotteries, nor
accompanied by chromos, spoons,
crockery, or other gifts, except the
gifts of absolute purity, wholesome
ness, full weight, and superlative
leavening power Its own merits
have been its chief advertisement. and
they have secured for it the cons tant
patronage of the American people to
an extent beyond the combined sale
of all other baking powders. The
Royal Baking Powder is certified by
all the Government chemists as abso-
lutelY pure and perfect.

ESTABLISHED IN
! MARCH, 1S47.

A good deal Of unnecessary agoniz-
ing may now be dispensed with. A
United States Marshal for the South
ern District Of Ohio has been ap-
pointed. 1t is not Henry Bohl, Of
Marietta, and it is not Leo Ebert, Of
Ironton. 1t is Henry Clay Urner, Of
Cincinnati. 1t is fair to presume
that our Democratic friends will at
tempt to show us an improvement
upon the methods Of Lot Wright.
That is, they will allow the Democratic
freemen to exercise their inalienable
right to vote twenty times each, and
kill a "nigger" or two on election
day. At least that is the Democratic
idea, but possibly the new Marshal
may not see it in that way.
