Don't he Overconadent.
The New York Epoch warns tn

The New York Epoch warns the
Democrats against overconlidence
in the campaign now upon US. If
Harrison can hold oil the States
that voted for Blaine, and can also
carry Indiana, he will of course only
require the nine votes of New Jersey
to win. Recent elections in the last
named State have shown that it is
decidedly inclined to Republication,
and he would be q rash man who
should prophesy the effect of the
tariff issue on the result there next
November. The Republicans have
a chance to win without New York,
while the Democrats have not. The
tariff issue should bring several of
the Northwestern States in line with
the Democracy, but the people there
are, We apprehend, too much welded
to their idols to see their own inter,
ests. Another thing the Epoch might
we'll have called attention to-the
potent effect of money. The manu-.
featuring barons, and all the capital.
ISIS, monopolists, combines and trusts
are vitaIly interested in the success
of Republican principles, and will
furnish an unlimited amount of boo.

Tobacco Il Cure for Group.

Although DR.. S. Leavitt, professor
Of Hahnemann college, does not use
tobacco in any form. he is never
without q small package of fine cut
in his pocket, and the reason of it
is this: A gentleman of the doctors
acquaintance told him how be had
saved his child's life after all the
doctors had given her up. She bad
membraneous Group, and the mother.
from sheer exhaustion, had lain down
for few moments rest, the father
sat by the child. The hard, difficult
breathing of the little one, growing
fainter and fainter as the throat
clogged up, was torture to the father.
Everything in the way of emetics
had been used, but without effect;
but suddenly An idea struck the
nearly distracted father. He re.
membered how deathly sick he was
the first time he chewed tobacco,
having cud in his. mouth, without
thinking twice he opened the child's
mouth and placed the tobacco in.
The father knew it was desper.
ate act, and he waited in terrible
suspense for the result. It came,
and quicker than he could have
hoped. There was a sudden con
vulsive movement, and the poor little
thing was nearly doubled for an
instant, and seemed to writhe in
agony, when, throwing herself for
ward, there shot from her throat
chunck of almost solid phlegm at
least two inches long, and having
through it passage no larger than
a small lead pencil. After a few
minutes of retching the little one
lay quietly back and slept calmly
aud sweetly, and the next day was
playing around the house with ell
her wonted vim. Dr.. Leavitt re.
marked that it was rough remedy,
but said he would always carry to.
bacco hereafter, and he does.-

The PrOhibitionists.

General Clinton Fisk, of New
Jersey, is by far the ablest man ever
nominated for president of the
United States by the Prohibitionists,
and large vote may properly be
anticipated, which is greatly con-
corning the two large political par
ties. Fisk is soldier, a statesman,
and q Christian, devoted to the cause
OF education, temperance and Sab
bath observance. He will not be
elected. The nominee for vice presi.
dent is John A. Brooks, of Kansas
