Conkling's Friend for Cleveland.

Conkling's Friend for Cleveland.
Geo. c.. Gorham's Interview in the New Yorb
Herald
"The republican contest this year repre-
sents mainly Mr.. Blaine, and he represents
only his own appetite and that of his in
sstiable millionaire clients. The demo-
cratic party represents Mr.. Cleveland
who is charged with no unmanly crime OF
tendency. He never kIe!t and begged
for letters he had written. He never com.
bined with opponents to defeat the
measure of his patty. He never perilled
the peace of the country to secure
guano beds for his friends. If elected he
will not make an assignment of his ad
rninistration to anybody. If Mr.. Tweed
were living, and if his sub-chieftains were
hauling him about the country and ex-
hibiting him as the next secretary of the
treasury, some democrats would revolt
and wait for better days. In the same
frame of mind republicans who do not
want Harrison elected bad enough to SCI
the government placed in the hands OF
Blaine will not cease to be republicans but
will refuse to further the programme.
II am one of this class-and therefore
an assurance that he will not, if elected
place the author of the Mulligan letters
and the political assassin of Roscoe Conk
ling at the head of the state department
my feeble influence will be cast in favor
of the election of Mr.. Cleveland.
81 find that the opinion 1 express as to
Mr.. Harrison's intentions toward Mr.
Blaine is strictly in harmony with that OF
Mr.. Walter G. Gresham, whose nomination
1 favored. After an interview with rep
resentative of the Paris edition of the
Herald of August 81, that gentleman said
to democratic friend who was present,
and also being interviewed:
"'Spesking of Blaine" remarked Judge
Gresham with smile, you are leaving
out an important part of your interview.
If were democrat talking to a news
paper man l would sey: But see here,
you republicans, this whole campaign of
yours is piece of Inconsistency. In your
convent GA you could not agree upon Mr..
Blaine and nominated Mr.. Harrison. Now
it appears that Mr.. Harrison is sort of
fgurehead, while Mr.. Blaine practically
controls the policy of the contest
Furthermore, it is generally urd erstood
that as secretary of state Mr.. Blaine will
direct the policy os the next anministra-
ton should the republicans win. In other
words, Mr.. Blaine is, to all intents and
purposes, the candidate. But this is p
palpeble absurdity. For if Mr.. Blaine is
unfit to run in person for the presidency
he is surely unfit to be the manager of the
man who was nominated in his place. The
people of the United States will not be
deceived by any such ridiculous device of
the party leaders"

making for them with all the vim possible
and both lit out for the fence, over which
they went in short order and in manner
that would have made professional aero
bat turn green with envy.
"Did you see my hat blow over the
fence?" said the invIncible Heiligman as
he dug the dirt out of his mouth, and
looked lamb-like and innocent and not
a bit afraid, at Caperton.
"What did you get over the fence for;
] thought you wasn't atraidg" he asked.
81 amt" meekly said Caperton. "Igot
over to help you look for your hat" and
then both looked dismslly sad, while the
cowboys yelled with delight at their dis
comfiture.
The branding was ended without
another episode, and the cattle, avery fine
lot, were driven out to the pasture.

Our Crack Shot.

Master Fred Petmecky, who with party
of other gentlemen went on the excursion
to San Angelo, returned to Austin
Wednesday morning, with victory perched
on his shoulders. He went there to enter
the contest for prizes in shooting, and as
usual carried off the majority of the
honors. The prizes were all in cash, and
he captured enough of them to pay all mis-
expenses aud have a good cash balance
left for stake. Wherever Fred goes, you
may expect Austin to come out best.

CAMPAIGN CHATTER.
Nominees and Prominent Demo
Gratis to Make Speeches.

The chairman of the state democratic
executive committee has placed the
nominees of the party upon his speakers
list, and each one will be expected to de-
liver three speeches during the canvass,
the time and places to be designated. He
will also require the electors and will re-
quest number of prominent democrats

FORMULA.

"Place a tub or some other vessel near
the bedside. Tie handkerchief around
the neck of the patient, so that the ends
of the kerchief will conduct the water into
the tub. Let some one hold the head of
the patient over the tub, then let another
person pour hot water from pitcher in a
continuous stream Slowly until the
patient becomes sleepy or inclines to go
into doze, then stop the pouring of the
hot water, remove the kerchief and dry
the neck, and let the patient remain in
the bed covered up; he will then sweat
profusely. One application is all that is
required. The water must be as hot as
possible, so as not to scald; this you test
by holding yonr finger in the water before
you apply it. Let the water from the
pitcher strike as near as may be opposite
the root of the tongue. Make a gargle
for the throat of sage tea and honey and
let the patient gargle it occasionally. If
the patient is an infant, make suitable
swab and swab the throat occasionally,
wet with the tea. The use of the hot
water sets up counter irritaut and draws
the Inflammation to the surface, hence one
application is sufficient to arrest the
neck of the patient, at first, the child will
scream as though it were suffering death
Don't stop for screams, but let the person
holding the patient over the tub, as before
stated, hold the child in place, as it will
make great exertions to extricate itself.
AS the Inflammation at the root of the
tongue is very great, you can we'll mag
inc how excrutiating the pain must be
when the hot water is first applied. The
patient gradually becomes quiet, until he
makes no complaint, and seems to enjoy
the treatment, and soon after this condi-
tion takes place sleep is superinduced. 1t
is best not to depend upon any woman to
treat the patient, for the reason that,
when the child squalls and struggles, she
desists, or tempers the water with cold
water. As you readily perceive, this rem
edy is always at hand, easily applied and
no possible danger can arise from it. Try
it, and report the result to me, if yoJ
please.
