Down Mills and his Gang.

The above from the, Dispatch should be the battle cry of the De l mocracy of Arkansas. In 1880 Gen eral Weaver. of Iowa. was nominat-
 ed for president by the Grecnback-
 CTS on platform demanding many reforms. Che by ono the Democra- | cy have achieved these reforms after
 many hard fought battles.
 During all this time Gen. Weaver l has been found in the van of the ar my of tariff reform. The Greenback forces have respected him and the Democracy have learned to look up- on him as their true and trusted friend He assisted to restore the public domain ,laborcd to prevent the refunding of the debt. worked to save the silver. saved the balance of the greenback. and in all these inn portant measures General Weaver was found voting and working with the Democrats. during all these anX- ious periods when the poor of the country were praying for the success of those measures the greenhackers of Nevada county were loud in their praises of Gen. Weaver. But now that the final contest has come when the people or the monopolies must one meet their W Waterloo. we find the |. l.. r. leaders. denouncing Mills
 and his gang. We ask all old green packers to remember that. Gen. Weaver is one of the Mills gang; he
 is one of the gang that saved the public lomrin: one of the gan. that l has reSistcd'thc aggrcs~ionS of cor pO-ate capital. and k now found ia l the front ill the great battle of tariff reform. Mir. McRae and Gen. Wca-
 yer sit side bV side and vote togCth-
 CT. They voted together on the tar 1 if bill to prevent piling on" hundred i millions of dollars annually in tn"
 treasury and for this they are d"-
 nounrrI !, gang and the Dispatch
 say, they mr>t b, dnwn'i. The
 day that Mr. Mills. G'"a. Weaver
 and this gang are downcd. the
 same day may the poor of this coun-
 try put on mourning. and prepare to pay tribute to corporate capital. and
 bow down to worship at the shrine of
 the millionaire and railroad king.
 The Dispatch says there is nothing
 in the tariff; yet 60.O0O. .ooO people
 are forming the line of battle for the
 final struggle; upon one side k ar
 rayed the high tariff barons of the
 East, and upon the other by their
 starving employees. The lordly bond
 holder against the burdened farmer
 and Mir. Mills and Gen. Weaver are
 upon the side of the latter cncourag- | inp them. while the |. l.. leaders of
 Arkansas are loading the guns of the
 enemy to down them and Powell
 Clayton will pull the trigger.
 The campaign of lsSS will be the
 Austcrlitz of American politics, and
 those who fail to join the great army
 of reform. will learn when it is toe
 late that they have been the tools of
 the enemies of the people and have
 aided and given comfort to their cn-
 emles.

Our County Ticket.

The Democratic ticket of this county is one for the success of which every Democrat can afford to work. It is composed of the best men in the county and men who are fresh from among the people, and not like the |. l.. ticket of a class of chronic office holders and seekers. The whole ticket is farmers but the clerk and all conccde that this office may we'll be filled bv some one not q 1 farmer. The ticket is admitted to be an exceptionally strong one and ! there iS no man on it against whom can he urged a single objection. The |. l.. ticket i. composed of men 1 from town. The Democratic ticket is composed of men from the coun- i try, and not the smallest suspicion of a ring clingS to them, while the l |. l.. ticket is criticised by promi- ncnt men of their own party as the outgrorth of q ring fixed up at Pres colt. The entire democratic ticket is farmers except the clerk and are i farmers. too. who farm with their hands and not with their mouths.
 There should be an organization effected in each township and the people should he informed as to what the democracy has done for them and how it has stood between them and monopolieS as shown ny Weaver in his speech, and victory k certain.

wHAT CAUSES rYpno1p.


The typhoid fever, it has been aseer-
tanned by scientists, is generally caused
by the existence in the water used for
domestic purposes of minute animal
culse, which are visible only by the aid
of the most powerful magnifying glass.
1t has been proven that these microbes
are generated by contact with sewage
products, and are taken into the sys-
tenn through the use of such water.
passing from the digestive system to
the circulating system Of the human
body and multiplying in such enor-
nous numbers as to change the char
acter Of the blood and bring on the
dangerous and contagious diseases
known as typhoid fever, diphtheria,
etc. These are facts accepted generally
by the medical fraternity, and may be
termed scientific in their character.
The life and habits of these microbes
have been studied by eminent prae-
titioners, and it has been ascertained
that they can be and are destroyed by
boiling the water containing them at
the highest temperature, this process
rendering it perfectly inocous and
healthy. In many cities where the
water supply is taken from the rivers
subject to pollution, or from springs of
doubtful character, great many peo-
pie resort 10 boiling all OF the water
used in their households. The trouble
of this is something, of course, and
the water so heated lacks the life and
vigor of fresh spring water, but this
difference is not perceptible or disa-
greeable after little use. The typhoid
poison IS effectualIy removed by kill
ing the fungus life which sewerage
water has impaired TO it.

A Plea to r. NJ. P. for the Noble
Red Man.
PERGAMAs, Nov. 1a, 1855.

fERGAAAS, Nov. L, 1855
Whereas
The ghosts OF Yankees long since dead,
Who sold horn fints to make their bread.
Have tTtcked Old Satan and returned
To tell US sinners are not burned"
| Why not allow few extinct Indians
of extinct tribes to come along and
give in their testimony in their own
extinct lingo? If those Yankees, after
Travelling through the heavenly spheres,
Have now come back 10 break your chairs
| To spend some time in focling churls,
In soaring women. boys and giris,"
Why not allow the noble extinct red
man TO come along and see the fun?
Now, Mr.. F. NJ. P, one of our me-
diums has been heard to say that YOU
are an educated man. That being the
case, you know what row was made
when Calico said "The world moves. y
Comment is unnecessary But lust
consider, Mr.. F. NJ. P, the almost in
finite amount of time, labor, study
and research, to say nothing about the
expense incurred by those arch@olog-
ical societies in digging up bones,
stones, bricks, bits of pottery, &c, &C.,
in those old heather cities, just to find
out what they did and said. Then
why not allow James Vinson & Co. to
dig up some of those extinct noble red
men and learn from them all about
This new world we love so dear
And what made them TO disappear
For those aforesaid Yankees
"In all the starry worlds have been.
In Venus Mercury saturn, Mars,
The milky way and all the stars,
They've seen your friends, now doing well
Since Yankees have abolished heT,"
And of course some of those noble ex-
tinct have been with them. Then whv
allow the heather Chinee, with his
tail on the wrong end, to freely circu-
late amongst us with impunity, and
not allow the noble extinct to even re-
visit his ancestral home, when he is so
useful in pointing out the spot where
treasures are hid.
And then, Mr.. F. NJ. p, you write
of the DR.. Whitman affair as though
there never had been such an atrocious
deed. You surely forget the ST. Bar
tholomew massacre or the doings of
the holy inquisition, compared with
which anything the uncuItured red
man has been able to perform sinks |
into contemplate insignificance, and
no wonder he hides and skulks under
the table.
Hoping that in your next you will |
not entirely obliterate US, we remain, !
yours truly, DAMPHINo.
