driven from me. After suffering the
most excruclatlng pain for a week, using

friend, who sympathized with nv helpless

Why don't you get Swift's Specific

CLEVELAND A REALIZATION.

His fidelity in the past inspires faith in the
future He is not hope; he is realization.
Scorning subterfuge, disdaining an election by
c0ncealing his convictions, mindful of his oath
of Office 10 defend the Constitution, he courage
ously declares to Congress, dropping minor mat
ters, that the supreme issue is the reform, the
vision the reduction of national taxation that
the Treasury of the United States, glutted with
unneedcd gold, Expresses industry, embarrasses
business, endangers our financial tranquility, and
breeds extravaganza, Capitalization. and corrup-
ton that high taxation necessary for the eX-
penditures OF an unparalleled war is robbery in
years of peace and prosperity; that the millions
that pour into the Treasury come from the hard
earned savings OF the American people that in
violation of equality of rights, the present tariff
has created privileged class, who, shaping leg
isaton for their personal gain, levy by the law
contributions for the necessares of life from
every man, woman and child in the land that
to lower the tariff is not free trade. 1t is to
duce the unjust profits of mOnopolies, and boss
manufacturers, and allow the consumers 10
retain the rest The man who asserts that to
lower the tariff means free trade insults our in
tel ligence, and we brand him falsitier. 1t
is cisian, from our thoughts to imperl capital or
disturb enterprises. Our aim is to uphold wages
and protect the rights OF all.

Dougherty's speech was delivered with
fine effect, in his best style, and aroused
unbounded enthusiasm. When he men,
toned the name of Cleveland, or referred
to his public acts and utterances, the Con
vention fairly shouted its applause. The
delegates mounted chairs, and waved their
hats. their canes and their handkerchiefs.
Ten thousand spectators joined in the ap-
piause, and the band in east gallery helped
along with horns and drums, but their
blare and noise could scarcely be heard
above the general din.
HOW THE SPEECH WAS RECEIVED.
AS Mr.. Dougherty finished his impas-
stoned speech some one in the west gal
lery tore aside the curtain which had hid
the portrait of Cleveland, revealing to the
gaze of the Convention the well known
features of the President, and aroused the
enthusiasm of the Convention to fever

Stahhad His Brother tn the Hart

ENTER. N. H., Aug. 21.-Two Polish mothers, aged b and 20, quarrelled and th& oldest stabbed the oiher uear the heart. His recovery is doubtful, ami the assailant is under arrest.
 THE women of Independence, Mo, carried that town for prohibition recently'by shrewd and energetic electoneering work They swarn~sN around the polls and the lunch stands and the street corners, wearing gay badges and peddling dry" tickets. Young women carried banners which declared for Temperance Beaus or No Beaus at All" Children marched through the streets car rying flags on which were inscribed: "Sow Whisky Ballots and Reap Drunken Boys;n "Young Men, Keep Your Record Clean;" "Rum, Revenue and Rags" and the like. And so the women won aided by 100 voters from the Mormon church there, who went solidly for prohibition.
 A SINGULAR effect of gale of ice and snow in the Northwest during cold wave last winter was to freeze the eyes shut and then form an ice mask over the face Tho wind would drive the fine, hard snow7into the eyes, causing them to water. The snow would mix with the water, between the eye- lids, and the cold wind would at once bind the lids together by an ice band. The re- peated removal of this would inf1ame the eyeballs so that film would form, obscur- ing the sight. After this film formed, the presence of the ice was a relief to the in- hammation. The eyes would soon be frozen so close that nothing but steady artificial heat would relieve them.

Chinese Dog Ranches.

The English Consul at Newchwang, China, tells in his report of curious in- dustry which 1ourishes in his part of the world. It is breeding dogs for their skins, which go to make dogskin rugs. The market is not supplied by catching stray animals in the streets, but from regular dog ranches, with which Manchuria is dotted by thousands. A ranch produces from ten to one hundred rugs yearly, and it takes eight skins to make a good rug. Dogs which grow fine fur in that country are strangisd in the winter time, and their skins arc sent, frozen, to be prepared in some town. The bodies are eaten, so that nothing is lost. This industry may not be expected to flourish outside China, as we are told that it is necessary for the dogs to be eaten, iR order that the ranches may make both ends meet, as skins of good quality and carefully prepared only fetch three taels, or about three dollars and fifty cents at Bristol

The Deadlock in the House.

WAsHINGTON, Aug. 21.-The prospect of trausacting any business in the House this week, or for that matter during the rest of the session, is not encouraging. Mir Lyman, of Iowa, who has determined upon the policy of insisting that there shall be a quorum for the transaction of all business until the Democrats vote upon tho motion to set aside day for the consideration of a general pension bill, says that he shall this week continue his policy. This will prevent the House from considering the Deficiency Appropriation Bill even, unless there shall be a quorum present. Mir Lyman has not the support of his Republican colleagues in this policy, but it is a programme which one man can execute so long as quorum is Iaokjng and there is no reason to believe that th 7re will be a quorum continuously in the House for any purpose.

THE INDIAN CONFERENCE.
Commissioners Still at Standing Book,
 But Their Case Hopeless.

BISMARCK, Dak., Aug. 2l-A messenger from Standing Rock Agency brings snfor- m ation that the Sioux Commissioners are still there, holding on with tenacitg. Dur ing the last fortnight nothing worthy of note has transpired, the Comm scion IS taking things quite easy. probably Ia the hope that the Indians will be subdUsd by their persistency. Yesterday was r1tioa day for the Indians, and the Commission hoped to make favorable impressieS upon the minds of the Sioux. Trustworth. snfor- nation shows, however, that the Sudians have not the least idea of signing the treaty, and that the Commissioners will meet with a similar result at the -ower agencies.
 Sitting Bull cuts no conspicuous figure at this great pow-wow. He is sulio- and defiant; has nothing to say whatcvc-. His jealousy of Chief Gall is daily Decaming more pronounced, and it is feared Shat serlous turn Tn affairs will be the res=lt.
 In special despatcnes sent out during the last conference, the statement was made that Judge Wright of the Commis- sion, in addressing the Indians, told them that they must sign or the Government would take their lands without compensa- tion and employ soldiers to scatter the red men among the reservations in diff ferent parts of the West. The fact is, Judge Wright did not use this language. He positively made no as- sertion which would in any particular convey the above meaning. He has made no threat at any time to the Indians, but has simply warned them of what he be- lieved to be the folly of refusing the tender of the Government Red Cloud, the great and influential cGef of the Pine Ridge Agency, is still moving around among the tribes stirring up opposition on every hanI, and he cannot be suppressed.

THE OUTLOOK IN INDIANA.
Congressman NIatson Expects to be the
 Next Governor of That State.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.- Representatives Hovcy and Matson, the Republican and Democratic candidates respectively for the Governshi2 of indiana, will probably leave next week to begin their canvas for the campaign. Representative Matson says that it has always been customary for u. , two candidates to canvas together, anu although the exact date has not been agreed upon, the canvass will probably begin about the 1st Of September.
 "What is the outlook for the Democratic success" he was asked.
 If there is any danger of losing it will result from ovcr-confdence. The Green back and Labor clements for the most part arc going to vote With US; then we have a decided advantage on the tariff reform issue. Indiana is not a protective State. n
 "Would the nomination of Porter inn prove the chances Of the Republcans?'
 Mo- don't think so. The Gubernator- ial election is subordinate to that of the Presidential, and the issue is one of princi- pie rather than men.
