POLITICS INCLUDED.


Pioneer Press: The meeting of the
State Dairymen's association at Fari-
bault was very intere sting, but az the
same time there was spice of politics
underneath, and between the sessions
the successor of Gen. Ives was fully dis
cused. 1t appears that this gentleman
had his friends there, and at meeting
ofsome fifty people one evening he re-
ceived thirty votes as the favorite candi-
date for his ownssuccessor. Mr.. How
ard, another candidate, introduced a
resolution advising the governor as to
the selection of dairy commissioner
but it met with great deal of opposi-
ton, and was dropped. Frank Clifford,
not only dairyman but politician, of
Scott county was elected president for
the ensuing year, and this fact has given
him prominence as a candidate for the
place. Mr.. Clifford laughs good-natur-
edly when accused of being candidate.
Meanwhile it might be well to remem-
Der that Mr.. Merriam is to make the APP
pointment-whent the time comes.

A STORY WITH A MORAL.

Years ago a minister's son went off from
home to college. At college he formed the
acquaintance of a young man whom / shall
call Ellison. Ellison was an infidel Ellison
scoffed at religion, and the minister's son soon
learned from him the infidelity, and when he
went home on his vacation broke his fathers
heart by his denunciations Of Christianity.
Time passed on and vacation came, and the
minister's son went off to spend the vacation,
and was on a journey and came to hotel

dying man. can give you no other accom-
mediation" "Oh," said the young college
student and minister's son, shat will
make no difference to me, except the
matter of sympathy with anybody that is
suffering" The young man retired to his
room, but could not sleep. All night long he
heard the groaning of the sick man, or the
step of the watchers, and his soul trembled
He thought to himself: "Now, there Is only
a thin wall between me and a departing
spirit. How if Ellison should know how |

heart futtersi What would Ellison say If he
knew my skepticsm gave wayT' He slept

Proof Better Than Assertion

With such proof as the following letter
from W. H. Dean, of No. 27S Seventh street,
New York, it is not necessary to make the
bare assertion that ALLCocK's Porous
PLAsTERs cure lumbago. Mr.. Dean says;
Some ten days ago | was taken with q
very violent pain in the small of my back.
It was so severe that l could hardly
breathe, every movement caused groat
agony. l finally'found out it was lumbago.
Being entirely helpless, IA friend sent to a
druggist and got two ALLCoCK's PoRoUs
PLAsTERs; these were well warmed and
applied to my back, one above the other.
In half ar hour, to my great delight and
surprise, l found the pain began to abate.
In two hours | was able to walk out and
attend to my business, the pain being al
most gone. Next day | was all right but
continued wearing the p~lasters for a week.

And II came to pass that after foul
years were expired, at the time tina
Kings go out to battle in the land o
the Amman Rekahns, that Boah thu
Gaddite, the son Of Agun, rode to anC
fro In the chariots Of the Smashup
Waydown & Breakneck, aud spak'
unto all men, and sat in the seat OF tn,
scornful, and got in the way OF thu
sinner.
For all the son of men feared hin
and fled before his face; for the staff O
his tongue was as the belt OF a fly
wheel, and he smote all the coasts o
Amman Rekah with m ei~ght-day CHR
which he kept by him.
And it was so that about the tenth
day of the month of Ralliz, after the
beginning of the feast of Hoo-Raw,
that Boah the Gaddite went into the
chariot OF the Smo-Kabs, as thou
contest to the fords OF liar Lem, by
way OF Al-Bani, which is, by interpre-
tation. Pie.
And Boah, the son OF Agun, arose in
the chariot, and spake in a loud voice,
saying;
Hear We me, men of Amman Rekah,
and all who dwell in the tents OF
Grovah, and we SON Of Benjamin, and
all We who dwoll by the water Brooks
of Prohi- Bishon; go to, let us take a
vote"
And certain sons Of Belial Knocked
him and said: Nay, but rather let us
take a drink
But Boah, the son of Agun, would
not hoarken unto thom, but spake all
the more vehemently, and cried:
NAY. but | will take a vote"
And the sons of Benjamin. and all
the children OF Grovah. and all the
mighty men of Fisk, which is a pleas
ant land and n large, where there are
palm trees and wells Of living waters;
and all the tribes of Mugwump, which
is a goody-goodly land, a land that
loweth with milk and water, rose up
and cried:
Are thy servants dogs and one
thing and another, that they should
stand this sort of thing more than
three or four times a minute all
through the campaign?"
And Hadarazzar, the Ethiopian, fell
upon him and cut him bad, and the
SOM of Belial smote him with sand
bags, and Gran Paw. the husbandman,
struck him with the hinder end OF an
umberell. exceeding hard and heavy,
and all who could reach him got hold
of him and gave him one for luck, and
spoiled the chariot with him, for there
was much spoil in him.
And there was quiet in the land for
ten minutes. And all the land of Am

Of Boah unto this day.-BurdeUe, in

that at that time all remedies for the blood,
etc, were called Bitters. Had he called it
Prickly Ash "Regulator," Curative" OF
almost anything but Bttters, it undoubtedly
would have superseded all other prepara-
