The Democrats in New York city are
10 muddle with regard to their mayoralty
candidates. Tammany hall has nominated
Hugh ]. Grant, a former Sheriff, and the
County Democracy have placed the present
mayor, Hon. Abram 5. Hewitt in the field
again. The Republicans have not yet made
their nomination. The New York Sun fig
ures II out that the choice will be between
Grant aud Hewitt, and that the Republican
candidate will be third in the race. Opin-
ions differ as TO the result of this triangular
fight upon the vote for Cleveland and Thur
man, and Hill, the Democratic candidate for
Governor The entire Democracy of the city
and State are united on Cleveland and there
need be no apprehension with regard to the
result for President in New York. Cleve-
land and Thurman will carry the State with
out doubt and the chances are also in favor

OF authorizing sin, that Is what God has forbid
ben. The question presented to the Christian
voter is. has God forbidden the sale of ntoxicat-
ing liquors?
There is another question on the right decision
Of which this rests, namely: Has God prohibit
ed the use of that which may, being abused. lead
to intOxiraton? 1t Ia clear that the moral right
to manufacture or sell depends on the moral
right TO use. II 1t be found that g od has not
forbidden the use of what may lead, through
abuse, to drunkenness. but on the contrary has
given His sanction to moderate use, bidding
men to be temperate, forbiddinR them to be
drunken, then the Christian voter may. with the
enlightened statesman, seek to regulate the sale
OF what taken in excess leads to all the evils and
degradation of drunkenness, and IL high license
tends 10 lesseninR evil to a greater degree than
prohibition does, then he will vote for high
license and not for a continuance OF prohibition.
On this question whether God does prohibit the
use of intoxicating drinks Christians differ
without 1t lie assumed that he lie no Christian who
does not see that God cannot sanction what is
the fount and origin Of so many vices. Perhaps
1t may be found that they who so Judge-there
are not few who so do-bring to the examination
of the record OF Gods will and purpose pre-
Judgment that alcohol in every degree and In
every form is a poison. and that therefore q
good God cannot sanction its use in any degree.
Ii men will look only through green spectacles
all they look upon must be tinged green. 1t is
i'm possible to make such men see anything as 1t
appears in the white light of the sun.
1t is purposed in following papers to present to
con that lead men to differ with regard to the
moral right to use as beverage temporarily
what may, being abused. make man drunk
ard or rather TO present the statements or men,
Christians and scientists. who have been led to
differing conclusions on this subject. d.

TO the Farmers Of Hartford CO.

The season is now upon US for Fall Seed
ing and consequently the proper time to
purchase your Fertilizers. Have you con-
sidered this matter carefully? If not it will
pay you to do so, and before buying pound
learn what is the Fertilizer to use to bring
desired results, both in grain and in produce
ing large and lasting crops OF grass. Ifyou
will look into the merits Of our
SPECIAL COMPOUND
which was offered to the Farmers several
years ago, you will find it proven by actual
tests made by the leading farmers of Hartford
and Baltimore counties, to be the most de-
slrable Fertilizer on the MARKET even better
than others that cost much more; and it is
further shown by the sales which are now
more than 500 per cent greater than they were
the year we introduced it.
What fertilizer is there now on this market
that has stood such a test rs our
SPECIAL COMPOUND?
Many new brands OF Fertilizers have re-
Gently been sold and proven nearly worthless,
or ifnot quite so, at least very little good has
been derived from their use and certainly
not worth the money paid for them and
after short life they disappear entirely or are
possibly revived under new name. We use
nothing, even in our cheapest Fertilizers, hut
what is a fertilizer ofitself
We have by much expense and great care
secured a formula that isgiving grand results
and it is paying those of our patrons who use
it greater profits than any other Fertilizer ex-
tant. Our
SPECIAL COMPOUND
will bring better crops, and is more lasting in
its effects than Fertilizers now offered, as it
has for its base
PURE DISSOLVED RAW BONE,
which is so high in percentage that it makes
composition rich in ingredients and per-
manent in its benefits.
Our object in emphasizing our
SPECIAL COMPOUND
is to draw our farmer friend attention to a
first-class article, at the same time we want
them to know that we also manufacture a
Raw Bone of prime material in its natural
state
GUARANTEED TO BE STRICTLY
PURE,
and our usual standard Soft Bone and Ami
NAL Bone.
All fertilizers delivered free by teams from
our factory or by cars from our warehouses,
Bel Air and Falston.
Respectfully Yours,
