The Democrat. (Scotland Neck, Halifax Co., N.C.) 1884-1896, 1888-07-12

While the correspondents have
been liz hting up the Topics pages
with brilliant accounts of the virtues
of their candidates for the Legisla'-
IRE, the people have been doing a
little quiet thinking of their own.
They wish that Senator Ransom :
chances Of re election he a little
more discussed. The comfy is solid
for the return of Hon. NJ. w. Ran
som TO the L. $. Senate.-LcnOi'
Topic.
We think the Topic correct. 1t is
true there may be "a few voters of the
State who would not return Senator
Ransom to the Senate, but what
does that signify Every man has
some preferences among his friends;
and it may be that here and there a
man would like to see his friend in
the Senate. And even in these cases
it Is not because he loves Ransom
less, hut his personal friend more.
The rank and file of the people OF
North Carolina want to see Ransom
go back. And they will see it.

70 the Afflicted.

A prominent advertisement Of DR..
truth appears in this issue Of the
TINES. The Doctor, by special re.
quest will visit Owosso, Monday,
March 10Th, where he may be con-
suited free of charge, in his par)ors at
the Merell House, from 10 a. m. to
10 p. m, one day only. We clip the
following from the New York Sun:
TO write the biography of this dis
tinguished physician in few lines
would be an impossibilty. A leader
in his profession, and in every sense
of the word great, with practice ex.
ceiling any in the United States, and
yet he is young man, just in the
prime of life. For some years DR..
truth has startled the eastern world,
from time to time, by performing
what seemed miraculous or supernat-
ural cures. One writer In describing
DR.. truths triumph in the sick room
says: sickness is toy in his hands;
IN a most phenomenal way he sheds
light into the darkest days, life into
the dy;ns, ND RIBS the sick room of
its sufferer" DR.. truth has been
called to consult over important cas-
es fiom the Rockies to the Chesapeake
from Canada to the Rio Grande. His
greatest ability is seen in diseases of
long standing, and desperate cases,
and his mightiest feats and most mi
raculous cures are performed after all
others have failed. DR.. truth is
young man, medium size. He is
hard student, deep thinker, man Of
remarkable perception and intuitional
faculty which is said to be marvellous,
In New York DR.. truth has made
remarkable record which places him
in the front rank with the most prom
inent physicians in the United States.
He is man of great individuality.
A man Of methods, man, who, from
ell appea, ances, does the work OF
hundred men. DR.. truth has at
tanned such reputation in his profes
sion that his opinion is sought in diff
ficult cases all over the country. His
advice has brought him many thous.
ands OF dollars in many instances. A
big price, some will say. Yes, but it
was the pivot upon which turned life
and death; TO follow it was to be cured.
1t is claimed that DIR. truth when he
sees a person, can tell not only his
disease, but whether it is durable or
not, and that with an almost unerring
accuracy.

with regret that Hon. Adam Beattie,

Startling Discovery.

The discovery by the inhabitants of a
lacality hitherto unvisited by the pesti-
lent scourge of fever and ague, that it
exists in their very midst. is decidedly
startling. Such discoveries are made at
every season, in every part of the Union.
Subsequently, when it is aseertained,
as it invariably is at such times, through
the valuable experience OF some one
who has been benefited and cured,
that Hostetter's Stomach Bittess. is a
thoroughly effiGacious eradicator OF the
malarial poison; and means of fortify-
ing the system against it, feeling OF
more security and tranquility, reigns
throughout the whole neighborIood.
Besides the febrile forms of malarial
disease, dumb ague and ague cake are
removed by the potent action of the
Bitters, tOSyyl1icf science also gives its
sanction'as remedy for rheumatism,
dyspepsia, constipation liver complaint,
debility. kidney troubles, and all diseases
inpairing the organs of digestion. and

Allen G.. Thurnan's Speech at Toledo.
There are men audacious enough
to say-men who are advocating
high protective duties or tariffs =
there are men audacious enough to
say that high protective tariff is
for the benefit of Iaboring men.
Why in the name of all that is COM
nonsense and reason, how can a
llaboring man be aided BY n tax that
begins with the crown Of his head
and extends TO the soles of his feet,
and taxes everything that is be-
tween them2- that taxes him ON his
hat, taxes him ON his shirts, taxes
him on his coat, taxes him on his
vest, taxes him on his pants, taxes
him on his underclothing, taxes
him on his stockings ard taxes him
ON his shoes; and even the little
necktie, that is around his neck, it
1eyies It's tax upon it, How in the
name of heaven, can it be that the
laboring man is benefited by such a
tax? No. my friends, of all the
hnmbugs by which men were at
tempted to be deceived this hum
bug of the Iaboring man being ben
Gifted by a high protective tariff is
the worst and most transparent.

BENT0N,s HAIR GROWER.

All who are BALD, all who are be-
coming BALD, all who do not want to
be BALD, all who are troubled with
DANDRUFF, or ITCHING of the scalp,
should use Benton's Hair Grower. Eigh-
ty per cent. of those using it have grown
hair. 1t never fails to stop the hair
from falling. Through sickness and fe-
vers the hair sometimes faf1s off in q
short time, and although the person NAV
have remained bald for years, if you use
Benton's Hair Grower according to di-
rections you are sure of growth of
hair. In hundreds of cases we have
produced good growth of hair onthose
wEo have been bald and glazed for
years. We have fully substantiated the
following facts
We grow Hair in every case no matter
how long bald.
UnliEe other preparations, it contains
no sugar of lead, or vegetable or
mineral poisOns.
1t is specific for falling hair, dandruff,
and itching of the scalp.
The Hair Grower is hair food, and
it's composition is almost exactly like

THIS celebrated stallion will make the
i season of 1888 at his stable near the
mouth of crooked creek, upon the fol-
lowing terms: Ten dollars for each SER
vice; twenty dollars for the season with
no privilege of return, or thirty dollars
to insure. Persons wishing to avail
themselves of the service of this horse
should signify their intention to breed
at an early date, as he will be limited
this season to less number of mares
than he has heretofore served in any sea-
son for the last three years. During the
season of 1887, Highland Chief became
standard, through the performance of
his colts, and is now registered as a
standard Horse No. 1927, in Wallace
Trotting Register. Upon information
derived from the same source it can be
asserted of Highland Chief that he is
the first Horse in West Virginia to make
himself standard through his colts
This fact alone will be sufficient recon-
mendation to horsemen, and is an ac-
eomplishment which does not require
any comment to establish the reputa-
ton of any Horse who performs It.
