Apropos to what we say in another
place, DR.. Norwood, the union labor
candidate for governor in Arkansas at
the recent election says 81 was fairly
and sgusrely elected but was robbed of
my majority by the most unblushing
frauds ever perpetrated by election
Judges and canvassing boards by the
robbery of ballot boxes on the way from
polling places to the county seats and
by the theft Of returns after they had
been placed IN the custody of county
clerks and locked up in their vaults.
The labor voters of the North are asked
to approve of the violence done to
their brethren in the South by sustain
ing the Democratic tickets national and
state. The Democratic party is in words
the friend of labor and in deeds its I'M
scrupulous foe.

late absorption by the nerves, when the patient s
stomach could not so prepare II, At last dis
covered this mode, and since the results have
made the most remarkable sale ever known.
Twenty years Of large practice taught me that the
terrible tired feeling in women was caused by
NAL nutrition Of the nerves. found there was
not one woman in ten whose stomach could digest
the food for the nerves to proper consstence
the stomachs Of the males averaged much better.
Having found plant loaded with their food,
resolved to meet this emergency. The result Is
scores Of helpless paralytes and nervous wrecks,
and hundreds ofthousands Of people who thought
thoy had no constitution, soon found tneY nad |;
they had abused their stomacns until they could
not prepare food for the nerves; that was the
matter, and taking Moxie hadproved it. Ifpeo.

Of PtOlemy down to C0lfucius, and
among modern astronomers from Sir
Isaac Newton TO the present day, no

again urging her or more rapidly.

Democratic sheets have been parading
John Stevenson, of New York, street.

from the Republicans. Mr.. Stevenson
says that as soon as be read Clevelaud's
message he decided to support him. OF
course, Mr.. Stevenson is not free trader,
aud the Democrats are not free traders,
but this is the way this new and welcomed
accession to he Democracy talked to q

four weeks ago:
~ nm in favor of gradual reduction
of the tariff, bnt believe free trade is the
beau ideal Of good government. When
people are directly taxed they are more
careful of the revenue, and the less pa.
tronage the Government has the less in
centive there is for corruption. BY get
ting the expense of manufacturing down
so we can compete with foreign countries
we can give employment to all Of our idle
men,
Here is an out and-out free trader who
wants no protection to home labor against
the starvation wages of Europe. The
Democrats are welcomed to all such men
The Republicans are getting recruits or
tho other hand from Democrats who
prefer American interests to those o.
other lands.
