When anything stands q test Of fif-
ty years among a discriminating peO-
pie, it Is pretty good evidence that
there Is merit somewhere. Few, il
any, medicines have met with such
continued success and popularity az
has marked the progress OF Brand.
reth's pills, which, after trial of ov-
er fifty years, are conceded to be the
safest and most effectual blood puri-
fer, tonic and Alternative ever intro.
duced to the public.
That this is the result Of merit, and
that Brandreth's Pills perform al
that il claimed for them, il conclus
lively proved by the fact that those
who regard them with the greatest
favor are those who have used them
the longest.
Brandreth's Pills nre sold in every
drug and medicine store, either plain
or gar-coated.

The Republican Idea Of 1870 and
1879.

The Republican idea Of 1870 and
1879.
In 1870, on the gath OF March, VIM.
3. Allison advocated q revision Of
the tariff, delivering speech in the
House OF Representatives in which
he said:
THE agricultural interest, it will
be seen Is much the largest interest
In it's aggregate product as well a. In
the number Of persons employed. !
believe that no one will claim that
this large interest is directly protect
ed. 1t is true that under customs
laws there il small duty upon
wheat, barley, oats and other agri-
cultural products, but 1t does not a.
ford any protection to the great
wheat and grain producing regions Of
the country. The gentleman from
Ohio, iu discussing this question yes
terday, stated that the cost of wheat
in New England is about $1.70 per
bushel, while in Illinois, Iowa and
Wisconsin, the price il about IS cents
per bushel. The Canadian wheat is
the only wheat that comes In compe-
tition with our own. Canada being
nearer New England than the wheat
growing states, more than makes up
the duty in the reduced cost of trans
portation.
What is true OF wheat is equally
true Of other grain. Therefore the
farmer has practically no protection
at all, and whatever benefit he de-
rives Is from what the home market
furnishes for home products. Unfor-
tunately for the farmer. the market
price Of wheat is fixed by the price
which the surplus will bring abroad,
or the price Of wheat in London or
Liverpool. At that market, where
the surplus is sold, and which fixes
the value Of the whole crop, he
comes in competition with the grain
produced in the Crimea, in Hungary
and in the region OF the Baltic, from
fields cultivated by what is known,
In comparison with our own, as pau
per labor.
But l am told we must SO legislate
40 to furnish home market for all
our agricultural products. and that
this can only be done by high tariff.
Any one examining the subject will
see that our agricultural products in
crease more rapidly than our popu-
lation, so that II we do not export
these products In their natural condi-
ton We must do so by converting
them into manufactured articles, and
export these articles. But this can
not be done under q high tariff, for
Ill nations will buy manufactured
products where they are the cheap
est, and the nation selling the cheap
est will control the market. This
rule excludes our highly-taxed ma nu-
features made from highly-taxed ma
terials from the markets of the world,
although We have natural advantage
es possessed by no other nations
In 1873 the Republicans OF Iowa In
State convention advanced up to the
ideas uttered by Mr.. Allison, above
quoted, and
'REsoLvED: That we demand q
general revision Of the present tariff
laws that shall give US free salt, iron,
lumber, cotton and wooden fabrics,
and reduce the whole thing to rev.
enue basis only
Under the existing tariff there has
been no prosperity among the labor
ing classes, farmers and mechanics OF
the country that should warrant q
continuance Of the present high rates
OF taxation.

LAWN SOCIAL

The lawn social given last night by the
two young peoples societies OF the Dogde
avenue Presbyterian church at Mr.. r.
Z. Lawrence's was very enjoyable and
successful affair. The grounds brightly
lighted by Chinese lanterns the rows Of
tables under the trees with their attendant
young ladies and the pretty bouquets Of
the flower girls" appealed to the pleasure
OF the eye while more substantial re
freshments appealed, and not IN vain, TO
the pleasure of the inner man. On being
seated at the table each guest was pre-
sented with menu in the shape of a
dainty book of birch bark which they
were allowed TO keep as a souvenir of the
occasion. During the evening Prof Sand
ford's band OF tweuty-four pieces rendered
some excellent music and the thanks Of
the ladies and all who were present are
certainly due TO them for voluntarily
adding so much 20 the success of the even
ing.

the celebration of the birthday anniver-
sary of the efficient assistant chief of the

which gave the affair more than usual in
terest.
About 10 o'clock the friends of Mr..

No. ?. Soon after the Firemens band
Numbering twenty pieces, appeared in

eral choice selections in excellent style.
The guests were then invited up stairs,

the dial During the evening Mr.. Jesse

also their foreman, an elegant toilet case.
They gave three cheers and tiger for Fred.
The recipient of this token OF esteem
could not find words to express himself,
but than ked the boys from the bottom Of
his heart. About I2:iJ an unexpected false

NOBLE pRESr1ss AT THE GARFIELD.
The lecture of last evening by Not
Prentiss. editor of the Newton Republica

The lecture of last evening by Noble
Prentiss, editor of the Newton Republican,
at Garfield University, the last of the
normal coures, was one of those rare gems
of word painting frequently read of and
yet seldom heard From the title,
Smiths temptations" all expected a
humorous effort, yet it was more than
that-tenderness. pathos. passion and wit
all found due place and proportions. In
some portions OF Smiths career, infantile,
youthful, mature or declining, each
auditor found some foible Of his own
deity touched or kindly exposed. The
pleasant vein was so prominent that strike
us as he could and laugh at us as he might,
we must yet laugh with him.
Smiths youthful, tender, mellowmoon-
light love affair was humor broad, pure
and simple His erratic efforts to revolu-
tionize the world were touched as with the
surgeons knife-cuttlng but to heal. This
satirically treated a common fault es-
pecially of western youth. His drift
ing from tie long estab-
lished land marks Or scientific
or religious thought only to
follow blindly the prophet Of Peoria
struck home at sad moral Ealing or one
of our age. His glad return 10 the faith
of his father when wearied with the empty
show of life was touched with pathos.
The speakers delivery was easy, moder-
ate distinct; his thought lucid and con-
nected; his wording pointed. and kindly
or keen as occasion warranted.
The attendance and attention were such
as few speakers command. Without ex-
ception the comments were highly hatter-
ing. One gentleman only, who was prob
ably from Boosting, the center of cul-
cher" denounced the speakers structures
upon the last stage OF Smiths career
that of the self-contained, uninforned Oh
misinformed critic He was not q teacher.
From the able effort OF the evening we
look upon Noble Prentis as man OF
strong, unwavering convictions Of the
right, with fine but manly defense OF his
principles, of generous soul, couxtly man
uer and cultured mind
