The democratic call for the State Con-
Of the State Committee. is q unique pro.
ducton. It starts out with a reference to
Jefferson and his doctrines. the writer ap
parently not understanding that Jefferson
is dead and that his doctrines are almost
unknown to modern democrats. certainly
not practised by them in State or Nation.
The Inauguration of Cleveland was the
most gorgeous military spectacle which
ever attended such an event. and the ex-
clusiveness of his administration and inde-
pendence Unpopular advice or suggestion is
we'll known; these are in striking con.
trast to the simplicity of Jefferson and
his regard tor the popular will. A party
that has so much to say about Jeffersonian
simplicity ought to show other fruits than
those now seen in democratic circles at
Washington.
All "who oppose monopolies and privi-
legged classes and the tyranny of grasping
corporations and accumulated wealth, "
are invited to enter the democratic party
in the coming campaign. Yet the great
est, most odious. most unjust and wealthy
monopoly that ever cursed this country
the Shareholders of the South -
was sustained by the democratic
party until the slaves were eman-
cipated through the efforts OF the
republican party. and all those monopo-
lists now living and nearly all their de-
scendants still vote and work and terrorze
the colored laborers of the South, to pro-
mote the success of the democratic party.
This is the monopoly which JEFF Davis
eulogised the other day in his speech at
Alabama. the defence of which he asserts
was Just and righteous and which cost the
nation millions of lives and billions OF
money to overthrow it.
Those "who respect and honor honest la
Dor and would place it in such a position
that it shall receive the Just share of all
capital and labor employed in the enter
prise of industry" are also invited to Join
the democracy in the State election.
Now.at this very time, there is a bill pend
ing in Congress, supported by the infu-
ence of the President and nearly the solid
strength of the democratic members of
that body, and opposed by the united
strength of the republicans, to reduce the
tariff on many industries, several in Maine
in an especial manner, so that. should it
mass. labor will be stricken down in this
country and State below its present con-

The stom.ch as a Gasometer.

In the dyspeptic stomach impure gases are
generated, after meals, that distend and dis
tress it as well as the bowels. The best car
mlDative for cramps, colicky pains and heart
burn or bilious eructations, is Hostetter $
Stomach Bitters. Carbonate of soda and eff
fervescing aperlents are far inferior to it in
efficacy, and AS physicians now understand,
impair the tone of the stomach. Copious H.
bations of any sort are injurious to the stom-
ach, and to dilute its juices is certainly not
the way to increase their digestive usefulness.
Aided by the Bitt'rs, the digestive organs,
when enfeebed and disordered. regain their
lost tone and regularity, not, of course, i'm
mediately, but with degree ofrapidity high.
" indicative of the excellence Of the remedy.
1t has the further effect of regulating the
bowels and liver, protecting the system
against malaria, relieving rheumatism and
neuralgia, and increasing constitutional vigor
