Another Great Cure bow Dr. Gage.


Some three months ago DR.. Levi Il. Dodge of
Waterford was very lew with kidney disease and
the physicians ceased to pI escribe declaring that
he was beyond medical aid A statement of the
case was, as last resort, sent to DR.. q. G.. Gage
the gifted New England Honbalist, now located at
&c West 31st ST., N. Y, who sent medicines with.
out seeing the patient, which have worked wonders.
The cure of DR.. Dodge is indeed wonderful consid-
ering that his age is nearly seventy. He drove
down to LittletOn last week in order to and
press his gratitude to his beDefactOr.
WONDERFUL CURE DIR. GAGE
Was that of the child of Mr.. James McCarty of
the Van Ness House, Burlington. Local physiSi-
ans pronounced the case utterly beyond help and
ceased to prescribe. DIR. Gage was called who at
once discovered that the real seat of the disease
had not been discovered. Under proper treatment
by DIR. Gage an improvement was soon perceptible
and in short time the little sufferer restored
to health and can now be seen playing with other
children. L. s. Drew, Esq. of the Van Mess House
and hundreds of others can corroborate this state
ment.

Col. Tx Fuller's Benefactions.

lie lie
Among the many benefactiOns of
Col. l.. X. Fuller, the candidate for
lieutenant governor, must be reckOned
repeated and generous gifts to the
Baptist church of ST. JOhnsbury. On
the establishment of the church he
bought the parsonage and the land on
which it stands on Railroad street and
gave it to the society outright. After
the completion of the church he called
for all the unsettled bills and cleared
it of debt probably, expanding in these
two items over $1,000. For two or
three years after he paid some $500
per annum toward the running ex-
penses of the society and from that
time until a year ago aided it through
the state convention. When informed
few months since that the people
proposed expanding 5000 in repairs he
forwarded his check for $50 and ex-
pressed willingness to do still more
if necessary. Col. Fuller has rendered
practical aid to many other needy
Baptist societies i'm the state and las
done it with so little OstentatiOn that
it merits special notice. In this in
stance he has been largely instrument
al in bringing the st. JOhnsbury sOcie-
ty up to a strong self-supporting or
ganization.

We have seen speech purpor,ing to
discuss the Onachita River and to
have been delivered on the 3Oth of
April by J. Floyd King, M. G. This
is certainly a singular speech to be
nude in Congress. For it consists
merely of vain glorious recital of
what the member has done for his
constituents and reads much more like
defense before them than like an arsu-
ment before Il dcliberative body.
This question of securing permanent
navigation on the Ouachita is one of
the gravest issues of this congressional
campaign. The petty appropriations
which Gen. King boasts of have done
no good. Seven years have passed
away and he is just waking up to the
Importance Of this subject. The river
is no better of now than when he went
to Congress, and this fact alone makes
change in our congressional rep
resentation imperatively necessary for
the interests of tho people who live in
the Ouachita Valley.

We publish to-day President Cicve-

ments enjoini'g all officials under the
general government against using their
official positions ia control political
affairs in their localities.
We do not believe in Civil Service
Reform to the extent of depriving q
man of the rights OF citizenship simply
because he happens to be an official
of the general government. An active
participation in tho affairs OF ones
country is the duty of every ctizen---
especially so in Republics but tho
President is right when he warns his

control political movements by tho use
of the influence given them by their
official positions.

THE PARISHE Els.
CATAHOUIA,

Tho News says that from number OF
planters who visited HarrsonhUrg last
week it was learned that while crops are
in some instances damaged 10 the extent Of
IS per cent yet as a general thing tho
farmers will DO able to pull through, and
those injured most Will save at least n
fourth of their crops.
TENSAS,
Tho weather for the past week has not
been uufavorabte FOR tho ploutors, although
there have been local raius. The condition
of the crop though il uuquostionably bad,
and only an extremely favorable season
will bring it ont.
Tho crops in this uoighbcrhood are, 10 be
very conservative, i'll an exceedingly
critical condition. Before the unprecedented
rains OF June. the crop was fully three
weeks late, and during the wet weather the
grass and weeds literally epveloped the
cotton; there was oveu too much rain fox
the corn.
