Old DR. johnson was a benefactor. Seven
ty-tive years ago he invented what is now
called Johnson's Anodyne Liniment, the won-
derful success of which in the cure OF dis
eases OF the head, throat and lungs is truly
astonishing. No family should be without it.
Thousands of dollars might be annually
saved to farmers if they would give freely of
Sheridan's Cavalry Condition Powders to
their horses, cattle, sheep. hogs, and fowl.
They prevent disease and promote the growth.
We said Sheridan's. Those put up in large
packs are utterly worthless.

There are interesting revelations from
various quarters of evasions Of the
provisions Of the Civil Service Law, and
violations of its spirit by democratic Off
Gals. They do not. however, cause very
much surprise. though there is surprise
that the men who are doing this still have
the audacty to claim that they are civil
service reformers.

DETROIT. Sept. l3 A dispatch to the Nelc,
tonight from Lansing says: The Demo
Gratis Of this District are not alone in their
discOrd, for a large amount of it is coming
to the surface among Republicans. Many
prominent Republican farmers of the county
have declared open war on Farmer Luce,
the most prominent being James Turner, of
Lansing. Mr.. Turner is TIE leading Repub-
lican farmer Of this locality Mr. Turner is
also a partner of James Mcmillan, of De-
trait, with whom he has large mining and
land deals in the Upper Peninsula. This
partnership makes Mr.. tn -ners bolt of un-
usual significance. a. Mr. Mcmillan is
Chairman of the Republican State Central
Committee.
Mr. Turner is red hot in opposition To
Farmer Luce. This has been expressed in
the most emphatic manner to hi. friends.
He will not only vote against him. but will
work against him. and this means much as
Mr.. Turner's influence is large with Repub-
licans in the county, among whom he has
recently been urged as the Congressional
candidate. He backs up his position with
facts and arguments tending 10 show that
Mr. Luce Is an imitation farmer. with many
bogus pretentiOns.
