Reports That She is in Delicate Health
"A Missing Man.
JACKSONVILLE, FLA, March 19.-George
Gould left this afternoon for st. Augustine
to meet his father, but left Mrs Gould here.
1t is said that her injuries are of a serious
character and that her husband is growing
very anxious over her condition. She was
in delicate health, it is said, and the shock
may prove very bad for her. One rumor
this afternoon was to the effect that George
Gould had telegraphed home for their fam
lily physician to come here at once. Much
sympathy has been aroused here over the
reports of Mrs. Goulds condition and the
feminine portion of the city especially is
very solicitous regarding her, and inquiries
are frequent concerning her.

THE GOOD OLD MAN.
,burgh Commercial Gazette.

Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette.
How strange it is that the Democratic
party was so long finding out what a
treasure they had in Allen Cranberry
Thurman! 1t is said that in public life
he stands for sterling integrity-fOr all
that is upright, honorable, noble. He
has long enjoyed National reputation,
based on services in the councils of the
State and Nation, and yet an obscure
man like Cleveland was preferred before
him for the Presidency four years ago.
The good old man-and yet he was
not good enough for seat in Demo-
low statesman who had reached the
White House by scratch.
The dear old mamie who now stirs
the hearts of the Buckeye Democracy to
the highest pitch of enthusiasm, has been
twice repudiated by his party when they
came to choose United States Senator.
The noble old Romantic man of
unsullied life and giant intellect, was
passed by as dead-stick when Cabinet
councillors and foreign Ministers were
being chosen, and he was left in political
obscurity. Now he has been galvanized
into life and activity by the touch of an
inferior hand and given a secondary
place on the ticket. What shame it is
that so grand person should have re-
ceiyed such shabby treatment until he
has grown into the "sear and yellow
leafr'

THE SECOND PLANK.

New York Mail and Express.
The second plank of the Democratic
platform announces that the party is
still strongly in favor of States rights.
The formula is ian indissoluble union
of free and indestructible States" This
phrase was the invention of Senator
Ben Hill, whose middle life was passed
in demonstrating that he was loyal Sc
cessionist, while his last years were spent
in proving that he was always good
Union man. The plank is a meaning
less piece of composition. Almost any
one might subscribe to it, but party
platform must be read in the light of his
tory, and history teaches that the Demo
cratic party is essentially disloyal or
ganizattion, having very little feeling
for the federal government and prefer
ring the State. The plank must be read
with the party in mind, and, read thus,
it means that the Democratic party
holds the faith that once brought about
rebellion and civil war.
The party insists on reiterating its be-
lief in the power of the State, although
it must be said that it is now good
enough to recognize the Union as in
disseluble But if the Democratic view
had prevailed we should not now have
a Union, or if there were one, it would
be weak bond uniting the Northern
States together. The federal govern
ment would not be power entitled to
the slightest respect. We should be
lot of little independencies, each State
with its own commerce, looking after
its own harbors and waterways, contron-
ing railroads only to its borders. Corpo-
rations that existed in one State would
find themselves legislated against in 9TH
ers. Travel from one end of the coun-
try to the other would be hampered by
all manner of diverse laws. The feder-
al building which now Indicates the
presence of the general government in
nearly every important city would not
exist. There are no conditions of ma
tional greatness that exist to-day which
would have been heard of. The Demo
cratic party is doubtless growing up to a
faint conception of the national feeling,
but it still needs vast amount of edu-
cation. 1t is still hampered and beset
by its old State rights traditions, and it
will probably not grow large enough to
comprehend the power and blessings of
the United States so long as its present
generation of leaders remains in COM
mand of the organization. We may ex
pect for several more campaign years to
come to reada lot of childish prattle about
free and indestructible States, as if the
relative rights of the States and the ma
tion were still subject of contention
and were not settled as finally and ire
vocably as the relative rights of the
States and counties. The Democratic
party lives in the past, among its men,
ories, and the worse memory is the
more fondly the organization clings to
it. The voters ought to bear in mind
that when they choose Democratic can
didateS they prefer men with faces to
the rear and not to the front and the fu-
ture.

THE OREGON ELECTION.

Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
The Republicans of Oregon killed sew
eral birds with the same stone in the
contest of last week. The Legislature
is elected every two years, and the grand
prize this year was the United States
Senatorship. Second in importance was
the election of a Representative in Con-
gress. Both these stakes were won by
the Republicans, but the revolution was
so sweeping in its nature that the Chair
man of the State Central Committee pre-
diets that two years hence another Re-
publican Legislature will be chosen,
thus securing a successor to Senator
Mitchell, whose term expires in 1891.
The Democratic candidate for Con-
gress, who has been showed under by
1000 majority, attributes his defeat to
the tariff question. He says: "The re-
suit of the election shows that Oregon
does not want free trade" A prominent
member of the Democratic State Com
mittee, when asked for his opinion as to
the cause of his defeat, said: "The Man.
tufacurers' Protective Union held an
ol0NUIOn III ollo oUaU0 1leHidy, ouI peo-
pie had nothing to do with it." Said
another Democrrtic leader: "The peo-
pie of Oregon are not educated up to
President Clevelands idea on the tariff
question; there are too many wool grow
ers in the State"
These echoes of the Oregon cyclone
are very encouraging to Republicans all
over the country, and correspOndingly
depressing to Democrats, who are now
nnequiyocally committed to President
Cleyeland's ideas on the tariff" After
the election is over in November Mr..
Cleveland can take up the refrain:-
''There are too many wool growers"

SKIN DISEASES.

Our eldest child, now six years of age, when an
infant six months old was attacked with vrulent,
malignant skin disease. All ordinary remedies
failing,we called our family physician who attempt
ed to cure it; but it spread with almost incredible
rapidlty, until the lower portion of the little fel
lows person, from the middle of the back down to
his knees,was one solid rash-ugy, painful, blotch-
ed, and malicious. We had no rest at night, no
peace by day. Finally, we were advised to try the
Cuticura Remedies. The effect was simply mary
elous. In three or four weeks complete cure was
wrought leaving the little fellows person as white
and healthy as though he had never been attacked.
In my opinion your valuable remedies saved his
fectly well no repetition having ever occurred.

A STAB IN THE DARK

Sometimes fails of its murderous intent.
The insidious and dastardly attacks made
upon the reputation of Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters by persons who seek to palm
off cheap and fiery tonics as identical
with it, or ''the same thing under another
or equally as good" in most in
stances react disastrously upon the un-
principled traders upon popular creduli-
ty who attempt them, converting their
Speculations into ruinouS failures. The
bitters is pure, wholesome and thorough
medicine, adapted to the total cure and
prevention of fever and ague, bilious re-
dyspepsia, constipation, bilious
ness, debility, nervousness and kidney
troubles. Its every ingredient, unlike
those in the limitations of it, is of an as
certained standard of excellence, and
while they, by reason of their fiery prop
critics, react injuriously upon the brain
and nervous system, of both those or
gans it is sedative and invigorant. Re
fuse all these harmful limitations. J.
