The latest rascal turned into Office by
the present administration is John G. Nor
ton of Flambeau. Wis. Norton was for
merly a republican and held the offices of
town clerk and postmaster. He was de-
tected in drawing money from the town
treasury on fraudulent orders, was tried,
convicted, fined and compelled to refund
the money. This evidence of republican
dislike for official corruption disguised
Norton and he at once came out as DEM
ocratic reformer. He worked and voted
for Cleveland, and now has his reward by
being reinstated in the postoffice from
which he was expelled when his wrong
doing became known. The local demo-
cratic paper defends the appointment. and
while it admits that Norton illegally APP
propriated the town funds, it asks with a
great show of indignation, if man who
has done wrong once is to be forever dis
qualified from holding a little postoffice.
But suppose a republican administration
had retained Norton in office after his
fraudulent act was discovered, what would

Recalling a Noted Crime.
DEATH OF EDWARD E. CARLTON, WHOSE
WIFE WAS MURDERED IN WATERFOWL.


The noted Watertown, Mass, murder mys-
terry of March, 1888, has had 4 sequel in the
death oy accident of Edward z. Carlton, the
husband Of the victim. Although there we're
many publicly expressed suspicious of Mr.
Carlton, he succeeded ia proving an abb.
He remained in Boston for \ year after the
tragedy, until he succeeded in collecting the
insurance of S5 900 on his wife's life, when
be disappeared. He received 4 legacy Of
about $50, 900 after the death Of \ sister in
California, and with this capital he en-
barked in patent medicine enterprise.
lie purchased gorgeous turnout, and made
a tour of many towns in the Southwest. His
custom was to make triumphant entry into
a town preceded by brass band and riding
in four horse barouche. 1t is said that dur
ing the past two years he became rich man
His career was cut short about three weeks
ago when he was thrown from the rear plat
form of a rapidly moving train in Texas. He
fell through bridge, q distance of twenty
feet. His injuries were serious, but it was
not at first thought that they would result
fatally. One leg was amputated but the in
jured man did not long service the shock.
The death of Carlton will probably forever
seal the mystery surrounding this crime.
There is in existence evidence which, with
Carlton living, it was hoped would sooner or
later lead to the exposure and punishment of
those concerned in the murder. Mrs. Carlton
was struck down with q paving stone in the
door Of her home in Watertown at dusk one
Sunday evening. She was kicked and tramp.
led upon by her murderer, but she lived long
enough to say few words to her little daugh-
ter, who came to her side after the assassin
had fed. Mrs. Carlton was probably killed
by two negroes, who were hired to do the
work.

1t is a matter of regret that in introducing
Hoods Sarsaparilla, its proprietors are obliged
to overcome certain distrust by some peo-
pie who have unfortunately brought worthless
compounds mixed BY persons ignorant of
pharmacy. Messrs. C. /. Hood & Co. are
reliable pharmacists of long experience and
they make no claims for Hoods Sarsaparilla
which cannot be substantiated for the strong
est proof. And we say to those who lack
confidence, read the unsolicited testimonials
in favor Of Hoods Sarsaparilla, and then
prove its merits by actual test. We are con-
fident you will not be disappointed but will
find it a medicine of great value, which can
be implicitly relied upon. 100 Doses 81.

The Boston Herald denies with daily in
creasing vehemence that President Cleveland
ever said that no officeholder should be re.
moved except for cause. Whether he said it
or not does not alter the fact that the mug
wumps all believed he had said it. The idea
of making removals without cause was al
ways torment to the mugwumps-theyh held
it up As one of the worst phases of the spoils
system. They are apparently ready to defend
it now, however, and nobody will envy them
the job. That is the task which the spoils-
men have set for their camp followers.
