PRoF, SAMUEL. DIoKE of Albion, held a
convention in Lansing the other day. 1t
was called prohibition convention, but il
was Prof. DIcKE's all the same. Prof
DIcKIE called the convention to order, Prof.
DIcKIE was made permanent chairman, Prof.
DroKrE did the principal part of the talking
not the kicking though, and there was
plenty of that-Prof. DIcKn was made chair
man of the state central committee, Prof.
DIcKIE was nominated for the Office of gov
ernor and Prof. DIcKIE will be badly left
when election day comes. 1t is very evident
that Prof. DIcKIE owns or controls major
portion of the stock of the prohibition party

SOME democrats are inclined to complain
that Mr.. CLEVELAND is too slow in parceling
public patronage to his hungry henchmen.
As democrat has taken possession of a fed
eral office once in less than every ten min
utes, on an average, during working hours,
ever since the present administration as
sumed control, it would seem that such com
plants are unjust and unfounded. Republi-
can heads have rolled into the basket with
tolerable rapidity and with unceasing regu-
larity since March 4th, 1885.

THEY always hunt in pairs. Our demo-
cratic friends and their greenback allies have
each called their county conventions 10 be
held at Lawrence on the 18th inst. That is
eminently appropriate. They differ only in
name. The only object or principle that
actuates either of these parties is the hope of
defeating the republican party and the desire
to share the offices. II is a little singular
though that the greenbackers generally get
left 30 far as the offices are concerned. That
will make but little difference this time as
both will be badly left at the next election.

DoN NJ. DICKINSON has publicly announced
that he will not be Michigan's next United
States senator. The people of this state viii
rest easier for that assurance. Don belongs
to Michigan and the thought that he would,
perhaps. conclude to take up his residence
in the capital city was narrowing indeed
BY the way, wonder if the Don hasn't really
made up his mind that no democrat will be
called to occupy that position? "Mebby So"
shouldn't wonder at all.

may Judge 10y what the papers say, is having
quite a boom for the position of auditor

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND has approved the
oleomargarine bill. Among other reasons
alleged for his approval he says: Il deem 1t
my duty in this instance to defer to the
Judgment Of the legislative branch OF the

on the part of Mr.. CLEVELAND that he had
any idea that the opinion of congress should
have any weight with the executive.

A PLAN FOR ARBITRATION.

Section 22 of the platform of the Knights of Labor reads as follows: "To persuade employers to agree to arbitrate all differ their employees, in order that the bonds of sympathy between them may be strength ened. and that strikes may be rendered un- necessary" And many who are not Knights of Labor believe that the easiest, the cheap est and the best solution of the labor prob lem is to be found in arbitration.
 It is probable that before long we shall have 8 chance to see the workings of arbitra- tion on large scale in Massachusetts. At the last session of the Massachusetts legisla- ture bill was introduced to provide for the appointment of State board of arbitration to mediate between employers and work men. It was favorably considered by the House, and sent to the Senate, which reject ed it in the last hours of the session. Dur ing the autumn both political parties in- dorsed the leading principles of industrial arbitration, and when the governor came to prepare his inaugural address he took simi- appointment of commissioners. In January MT. Mosely of Newburyport introduced bill based on the English model of enforcea- ble findings, and now the Knights of Labor, acting through their friends in both houses, have presented bill, drawn up by MT. Charles G. Fall, which they state will be &C., ceptable to them. It provides for board of three men, one of them to be selected from some association representing employers of labor, another from some labor organization and the third to be selected by the other two. The compensation proposed is $5 per day of actual service and necessary travelling expen- ses.
 This bill finds much favor in Massachu- setts. The Boston Advertiser says of it: The bill is carefully drafted. It omits the high 1y objectionable provisions giving the force of law to the commissioner recommends tions, and meets the approval of the chief of the bureau of labor statistics, who has made industrial arbitration a topic of careful study The friends of the bill state that they have carefully weighed the proposal to have special local arbitrators named for each case requiring settlement, and have come to the conclusion that it will be wiser to trust to 8 standing commission, composed of men of the highest character and intelligence, to be named by the governor.

Consumption
 Conquered 1! WHEN THE DOCTORS COULD
 DO NO MORE.
DO NO MORE.

CHAs. A. CABRERA, 3e Hawley Street, Boston, Mass, writes
 "One year ago I was apparently so far gone with Consumption that my life seemed only question of days rather than months. With my faith in the ability of physicians to help me all gone, I tried almost every known remedy, with no apparent benefit. Finally, last resort, I was induced to try Dr. R. c. Flowers Lung Cordial The very first dose gave me relief, and with the first bottle took new lease of life, and I can honestly say to-day that one spoonful of this remedy is worth more to the sufferer from Lung troubles than a gallon of any other known remedy. A bottle of it is now one of my choicest possessions, and at the first symptom of a cough or cold I fly to it for the relief it never fails to give.'
 DR. FLOWERS LUNG COR- DIAL is without question the most wonderful Lung remedy ever discovered. It eradicates the germ of CONSUMPTION as no remedy has ever been known to do. It stands without a rival for COUGHS, COLDS, BgON- CHITIS, ASTHMA and CON- SUMPTION.
