Do not these several psesadents of past
Presidential coutests prove coneluSiyely
that tie policy Of maintaining ultra-pro-
lection, especially when there is an enOi-
nous surplus revenue pouring into the
Treasury and high duties are not required
for the needs Of the Government, is not q
winning card in q Presidential election?
Even i'll the so-called protection States
like Connecticut, New Jersey and Michi-
gan the vote of 1884 shows that ultra-pro.
lection is the weakest political issue which
can be rendered By the Republicans TO the
Democrats in Presidential campaign.
The road to victory next fall is not via
the endorsement Of the present system OF
ultra-tariff bounties, which are draining

them to hopless penury, and forcing them

This system is protection to them with a

TRAINS ABANDONED.

''Not the slightest trouble has been re-
ported from any point so far and ] do not
anticipate any violence or obstruction from
any source. The strikers did not bring
their engines through to the.end of their
runs, bat left them at the nearest point
when 4 o'clock came. Thus, al our pas
sengers from the Missouri river were
dumped at Galesburg, and those which we
take from the Illinois Central at Forest
were left ct Aurora. From the latter point
we were able to bring them in without
much delay, but at Galesbnrg the pasasn-
gers were obliged TO wait until o'clock
before We could start them in"
A dispatch from Aurora says that the
shut down there was complete. All oper'
ations ceased even before the hour Sc. for
the strike. Several trains ca1e In just
previous to o'clock, and SIS they arrived
in the yards one by one, each was quietly
abandoned by the trainmen. The early
mail train from Chicago had gone through
on time, and when the appointed moment
came for the strike nothing was stirring
and the compapy's premises were silent
as cemetery, and looked lonely desoiats
in the dull grey early morning light.

GARFIELD.

He also lost Indiana by 1000 votes, while
Garfield, the tariff reforme-, carried it by
1000 majority. Mr.. Blaine only carried
Michigan by mere scratch, because the
labor classes voted for Cleveland, who was
alleged to be 'free.trsder," or at least 8
low-tariff advocate, while Garfield, the low
ter, Il man, carried that State over Han
cock by $1,000 majority, and also carried
Iowa by IS, 600, while Mr.. Blaine received
only 10000, the trsde-unionists voting
against him and for the alleged free-trader,
Cleveland.
If high protection were a popular issue
with ths masses, surely the trade -unionists
of Michigan and Iowa would have support
ed Blaine aglinst Cleveland to the last
man. The way they voted under the cir
cuustances proves that they had little
confidence in the value of high-protective
duties to

tion of The war tariff, and the Democrats
strenuously CLAIM to this day that they
elected Mr.. Tilden upon that issue They
swept New York upon it by $1,000 ma
iority, carried New Jersey, Connecticut,
and Indiana, and cut down the Republi-
can msiority in Illinois from sc, ,OCO to less
than 10000, in Wisconsin from "a, 600
down to 5000.
AND IN OHIO FROM $4,000 TO 1000,
and they rolled up popular msjority for
Tilden and tariff reductions in the whole
United States exceeding 260, 900 votes,
which shows that the demand by one of
the great parties for a reduction of war
duties is not losing position to assume
before the people when boldly argued ont.
In 1880 the protection issue was not
sharply tonight before the people. Han
cock, the Democratic candidate, treated it
"a a merely "local issue" while Garfield,
the Republican candidate, had an sstab-
lished reputation as q moderate tariff man,
though not q "free trader" and he was
voted for and elected with such knowledge
of his views. He polled the full vote Of
every element and faction of his party, in
Guiding the Prohibition Republicans and
the Conkling and mugwump factions, and
he received besides large German tariff
reform support. He was, of course, tri-
umphaDtly elected in spite Of the solid
South" which on the color line voted for
Hancock.
In 1884 the Republican platform
NJ rn1rn r,s-. HErY 10 TARIFF REFORMS
to the reduction of duties that would re-
move the surplus revenue which the tariff
was producing unnecessarily, and 1t also
eensured the Democratic party for not re-
forming the tariff 10 as to leave the surplus
revenue in the pockets Of the people.
The Republican platform held the Demo
cratic party (then and for several years in
control of the House of Representatives,
to the full measure of responsibility for its
failure to reform the tariff, denouncing its
conduct a. q psrfdious violation of its
party pledges and sacrifice Of the tax
payers interests.
But Mr.. Blaine, believing in the popu-
larity of high-protective duties, strenuous
IL sought to make that the chief issue Of
the campaign. Pretty much ignoring the
party's platform on that subject, he ad-
vocated his protective policy everywhere,
on the stump as we'll as in his letter of ac-
ceptance. He urged it upon his support
ers as the chief issue to bo made with
the Democrats. But the country failed to
respond to his views. He lost the Empire
State, which had given Garfield $4,000
majority, many moderate tariff Republi-
cans of the agricultural class who would
not vote for Cleveland voting the Fro
hibition ticket rather thansupport Blaine's
high protective policy, as they could not
see how that policy could be to the interest
offarmers. Mr.. Blaine also lost Connectl-
cut, which Garfield had easily carried. He
lost New Jersey by nearly three times the
ANrT-REPUBLICAN MAJORITY AGAINST

Chronic Catarrh in
Horses.

Horse owners may remember two attacks of disease which
troubled our horses during the past few years, known as epizoot-
ic. The disease twelve years ago was very extensive and often
fatal. Its main symptom is a violent catarrhal discharge from
the nose, present III almost every case. The disease four or five
years ago, though going by the same name, was so different
milder i'll form-as to lead to the impression that it was altogether
a different disease. In this attack the catarrhal discharge was
less frequent. When it did occur complete recovery followed.
When it did not, while the horse seemed slowly to regain his
former vigor, he was injured by a permanent thickening of the
lining membrane of the air passage of the head and throat, and
in the throat extending to the surrounding tissues, making the
air tubes so small that he could not easily get breath enough,
especially when unusual work called fer an extra supply of fresh
air. Farther, this condition seems to be hereditary, so that colts
bred from the stock so affected are more subject to this impeded
breathing than others.
By some horsemen this condition has been mistaken for heaves
quite another disease. The labored breathing is the same in
both cases, but the causes are different, in one case a sort of
asthma, in the other a chronic nasal catarrh, without outward
discharge. In this case the thickening may be felt back of the
angle of the jaws and between the jaws. The swollen condition
may be readily recognized by feeling the outer part of the throat
of the affected horse as compared with a sound one.
This condition may be cured by raising the horses head and
pouring about a tablespoonful of Jackson's Common-Sense Lini-
mentin each nostrl and letting it run down to the throat; then
let the head down and pour some on the top of the head, back of
the ears, so as to let it run down to the angles of the jaws, and
battle them freely. Repeat this daily. 1t will produce a dis
charge such as should have taken place when the horse was first
attacked with the disease, with no unpleasant symptoms at the
time of use, or afterwards. Feed with Common-Sense Removal
ing Powders, to thoroughly cleanse the system. The result will
be the removal Of the false thickening both by direct discharge
and through the pores of the SKIM which are stimulated to
healthy action. The above disease can be cured, the natural
breathing restored, and the disease eradcated from the system
by the use Oft. H. Jackson's Common-Sense Liniment and Re
novating Powders, by following the directions for Epizootic,
Coughs, Colds and Distemper. If you ever have a horse afhict-
ed, don't fail to try it.

w Orms in Horses.

There are several different kinds of worms found in the in
testnes of the horse. OF these the principal are the long round
worm, found III the small intestnes, and the needle worm, found
in the large intestines. Other varieties are sometimes found in
the stomach and bowels, but it is not necessary to describe them
The long round worm is from six to ten inches long and re-
sembles the common earth worm or the same worm found i'm the
human system. 1t inhabits the small intestines. Very large
numbers OF them may exist in the horses bowels and, by theil
drain on the food of the horse and the obstruction they cause to
the natural action of the intestines, cause him to lose condition
and though he may eat quite enough, not be benefited by ii.
The needle worms occupy the large bowels, sometimes in
incredible numbers. They ae darker colored than the long
round worm. They are from three quarters of an inch to three
inches in length. They are slim and sharp pointed. Great mum
bers of them often descend into the rectum, or last gut, and
become very troublesome to the horse.
The tape worm is very seldom met with in the horse. II
could only be certainly known by parts of it being found in the
dung.
SYMPToMs-Worms may exist in the horses bowels in con
siderable quantity without causing great disturbance in his health
The symptoms of worms are not always very satisfactory. When
they are troubling him much the coat will become unthrifty, the
hide tight and belly tucked up, and the appetite greedy. Cough
might sometimes be caused by worms. But these symptoms
may Indicate other diseases, and, of course, a careful examina
ton for any other disease that gives rise to the same symptoms
should be made, and, if none can be found, worms may be sus
pected and remedies for their removal given.
But Il reliable symptom of worms is Il rough, scaly appear
ance about the fundament which may be seen by raising the
horses tail. A still more reliable one is the discharge of a whit
~islryellow mucous which dries up, leaving yellowish scales
sticking around the fundament or anus. This generally indicates
the presence of needle worms.
II uOTSe bOuDleu Will ueeule worm VIII also SNOW signs OF
uneasiness, frequently rubbing his tail against objects or tucking
it under and switching.
CAUSEs-Some suppose worms to be natural and even bene-
fetal in the bowels, but this is a mistake. An unhealthy condi-
ton Of the mucous coat of the bowels is most likely the cause of
worms. (Under the head of worms, nothing has been said OF
bots, for they are not properly worms)
I. Ii. Jackson's Commons Sense Renovating Powder is .
positive worm destroyer, removing the worms without any disa
greeable effect aud leaving the bowels in good condition and
giving health and tone ia the animals system. There is no dan.
ger in using it.

CRITICISED by MANY,
An Unnecessary Departure from
the Rules and usages of the
Democratic Party.
To The tttltof OF the Ledger

10 The Edltor OF the Ledger
MEXico, Mo, August 1.-The
manner i'll which the senatorial
convention was called has been Sc
verely aud, we think justly, crit
cised by many for the reason it vas
not called in accordance with the
rules Of the party, based ON right.
We understand there was no meet
ing of the senatorial committee
called, nor was there any meeting
OF the committee had that b. +.
Dobvns and Walter Tratchei. sen
atorial committeeman from Au-
drain, met here and fixed the time
and place for holding the senator
ial convention and issued n notice
stating purpose, time and place,
then sent sanle to the committee
men of Lincoln county, who signed
it. The same was then sent TO the
committeeman of Pike, who refused
to sign it. The question is, had
Messrs. Dobyns and Tratchel the
RICH. TO violate all precedents and
do rs they did?
Let us illustrate: Suppose the
central committeeman from Salt
River, Wilson and Sailing, having
q majority Of the committee, should
conclude to hold Il convention to
nominate Il ticket and should name
a time, place and manner of holding
the convention without calling
the senatorial committee together
from all the townships, what would
the Democrats of this county say
and think? Would they not rise
in arms and denounce the perpe-
t"ration of so dastardly and lawless
4 deed? What purpose could these
men have had in view when they
degraded the trust the Democrats
had reposed in them? Their con-
| duct in this matter deserves and,
I am sure, will receive the ~sevegest
censure Of the Democrats of this
senatorial district. Such conduct
is dangerous to the rights of the
Democrats and the organization of
the party. This gross intraction
of political law, founded and based
on right, should not be allowed to
pass unnoticed and uncondemned.
The result of this base infraction
has luckily done, at this time, no
harm, since the choice of the Dem
ocrats of this senatorial district has
been unanimously nominated but
if left unrebuked will be sure to
| work in the future incalculable
harm. Let it be not repeated.
