WE do not look upon the present
movement against the saloon as a
passing wave of excitement, as a
temporary ebullition of public feel
ing on the liquor question. 1t is too
strong and deep for that. 1t is a
movement that has come to stay, to
grow, and to succeed. 1t has taken
hold of the hearts and minds of the
people as no movement of the kind
ever did before. The country is at
last awakening to full and true re-
alization of the fearful wrongs and
abuses which are the inevitable ac-
compartments of the drink traffic.
We have seen the beginning of the
end. The handwriting is upon the
wall-the saloon must go. The edict
will not be repealed. 1t may not be
in this decade; it may not be in the
next, but as surely as God reIgns the
day is coming, and that soon, when
this land, from east to west, from
north to south, will be forever free
from the curse of the legalized rum
traffic. This is large hope, but it
is ours, and We rejoice in it. 1t has
its basis upon no illusorY dream, but
upon sure and strong conviction,
which nothing can shake. And hav-
ing this hope, we are not greatly
troubled about such things as vetoes
and decisions of the courts. These
things may retard the onward move
ment for brief season, but they
can not stop it. The rum traffic is
doomed to die.-NclD York Observer

OLD VIRGINIA TIRED.

The Hartford Courant has received some very interesting facts from Virginia, t'from unimpeaohable authority" These facts in- dicate that Virginia went Republican in the election last week.
 The State, politically considered,is divided into two parts-the black, or Republican, and the Democratic, which includes the white counties. Eight years ago these latter were almost wholly Democratic.
 The congressional districts were so ar- ranged as to mass the black voters in the Second and Fourth disticts which gave 8 black majority on the registration of 10000 or more. Two or three other black counties were included in certain white districts to avoid 8 third black or Republican district. This year the Republicans made their great fight in the white counties. In five districts they nominated ex- confederate officers for Congress; in two other districts the sons of confederate soldiers. Of the 31 white coun- ties in the great valley and in the Piedmont region % show Republican gains; % are ab- solutely carried. The gains in the 31 coun-
 ties wiped out Cleveland's majority of 1884 (s, ,O03) in the 100 counties of the whole State
 
 district in the State, until we come to the Fourth, Fifth and Sixth districts. If the ! black counties of those districts had main
 tained the record of 1884, Harrison would
 have had plurality of more than 5000 in Virginia.
 Three thousand votes were lost in the Petersburg district because of the Langston I contest. Charlotte county, formerly Repub- l lican by 1,500, is returned 1000 Democratic.
 In order to defeat Yost, Republican candi- ! date for congress, changes were made in re- turns from Halifax, Buckingham, Appomat- | tox and Cumberland counties, which also re- duced Harrison majority.
 But, according to tho actual figures given | out by Democratic precinct judges on the I night of the election, the Harrison electors | have majority of ]. .600 in the State. Thirty thousand confederate soldiers voted the Re- publican ticket, probably constituting three- | fourths of the entire white Republican vote. ! In Norfolk county, by the public deolara- ! tion of precinct officers on the night of elec- tion, Harrison received ], 1900 majority. But the county board of canvassers adjourned | without signing the returns.
 The Republican managers are going to have | the State if it belongs to them, and they have l no doubt that it does. Legal proceeding to
 compel the correction of altered returns and l the signing of the returns withheld will be prosecuted energeticslly. What has become \ of the solid Southl

docror's opinion, hardly be denied. The average standard among the women of our country to-day is far below what it has been in the past. The deterioration of their phy- sical health since the days of their Puritan mothers had been very marked, but it is not confined to the wealthy or ultra-fashionable alone. Nervous, hysterieal schoolgirls are found in the mechanics cottage as well as in the millionaire's mansion. The doctor does not believe that American women have depreciated in personal beauty and attract iveness, but in physical strength and power of endurance. The mind Is cultivated to the neglect of the body. He believes that the remedy is in education in it's broadest sense. Parents, teachers and preachers have shown themselves capable of caring for their moral and intellectual parts of the education, but the physical part, though equally important, is mainly left to shift for itself without proper guidance.
 Judge French is rebuked by the Boston Post for saying in his speech to the Norfolk club that President Cleveland is ''the man who declared, when he entered upon his term of office as PresidentAthat it wasn't wise or well for the country that a President should be candidate for second term, and who spent his first term scheming for second; the man who declared in the most solemn manner his adhesion to the principles of civil service reform and then proved reereant to them; the man who professed to have the honor and the dignity of the country at heart and then was ready to sacrifice one of it's greatest interests in the face of 8 foreign power; the man who tried to force upon this country free trade" This speech. says the Post, "Was perhaps the most extraordinary syer heard from the lips of man of his standing in the community, except under the influence of party necessity in the heat of a campaign" "It is safe estimate," says the Post, ''that not one man in thousand of those who may be called intelligent believe that Mir. Cleveland spent his first term schem- ing for second" The Post is wrong. There are at least two men in thousand of those who may be called intelligent who believe that President Cleveland was after second fArm

WHAT IS cATARRH

Catarrh is an inflammation Of the mucous mem- branes, and may affect the head, throat, stomach. bowels or bladder. But catarrh of the head is the most common, often coming on so gradually that that it has firm hold before the nature of the trouble is suspected. Catarrh is caused by cold, or succession of colds, combined with
 IMPURE BLOOD.
 Its local symptoms are 8 sense of fullness and heat in the foreht ad dryness in the and back part of the throat, and a disagreeable discharge from the nose. When the disease gains 6 firm hold on the system it becomes chrouic, and is then ex- ceedingly dangerous and treacherous, liable to de- velop into consumption. The eyes become infamed and red there is throbbipg in the temples ringing noises in the ears headache capricous appetite and sometimes loss of sense of smell and hearing.
 HOODS SARSAPARILLA Is the remedy for this ever increasing malady. It attacks the of the disease by purify ing and enrichipg the blood, which in passing through the delicate passages of the mucous mem- brane soothes and rebuilds the tissues giving them tendency to health instead of disease, and ultimate ly curing the affection. At the same time Hoods Sarsaparilla builds up the whole system and makes one feel that he has taken new lease of life. HOODS SARSAPARiLLA Sold by all druggists S1, six for s. Prepared only l by c. I.

The prohibition vote cast in California last
 week has 8 curious feature. According to the returns from the different sections of the State, the prohibition vote there came from the southern counties, which constitute the great wine growing region of California. In Los Angeles, San Bernardins and Santa Clara, which are all dotted with vineyards and yield thousands of tons of grapes, the prohibition ists came out in force. In most of the towns in this beautiful region such thing as n- quor saloon is not tolerated, and wine drink ing is proclaimed vice to be summed. Nev- erthelsss, these good people continue to plant vineyards, and it is said that 100, ,00o acres will be devoted to grape culture in that State ! this winter.
