Mr.. Baughman, Democratic mem
Der of the Ohio House of Representa-
tives, has snatched the laurels from
the brow of Sunset Cox, as a joker.
Baughman has gotten off the best one
of the year, thus far. He claimed in
a speech on the resolution by Emmett
Tompkins protesting against the con-
firmatlon of Lamar, that the colored
vote was not suppressed in the South,
but that the change in the vote in the
last few years was "the result of the
education of the negro" That is,
these negroes" have been raised in
Democratic families: they were the
playmates Of Democratic children, and
some of them the enforced playmates
of Democrats of maturer years; they
were beaten, and tortured, and dogged,
and worked, by Democrats, and as
soon as the great Armies of the North
went down and broke their chains,
the process of Education" began,
which impelled the colored man to
vote the Democratic ticket or stay at
home! The Education" that effected
such change in the political situation
down there, is the education taught
by the murderer when he enters your
residence at night, with drawn pistol.
Baughman ought to be cowhided by a
delegation of old colored women from
the cotton fields.

The Last War Song.

Darkly hung the smoke of conflict like curtain cold
and damp,
Frowning the charging squadrons rushing through
the fiery camp;
With sweeping roll of thunder rang the battles
awful peal
With CLEAN of vivid lightning shone the sturdy
lines of steel,
Up the hillside down the valley, where the changing
fortune rolled,
Rent anon that gloomy curtain with glinting flash
of gold:
Mortal hate and riot passion rode the storm with
frantic glee,
Where thousand souls plunging iu Deaths
broadly-sweeping
Soon the awful tide ebbing yet with sullen pace
and slow,
As, still fighting, to the Southwark moved deter
mined foe.
Fainter DINNER, the volleys, then the scatter
ing pfcket-shot
Come to greet the of dying upon that f-
tai spot.
Hark! Was that the breeze soft-whispering among
the shattered pines?
Was some spiritmessage from the sleeping broken
lines?
With a weird and ghostly measure floating through
the gloomy night
How its music seemed to- drive away the terrors of
the fight!
There beside bending laurel lay a shattered form
in blue,
Where the starlight in sympathy, was family
With the life blood slowly ebbng yet in vain Deaths
cruel sting
Mustered all its writhing tortures, forbid hero
sing.
Out upon that field of carnage foated, like mag
ic spell,
That sad strain of tender melody the soldiers
farewell:
Farewell mother, you may never
Press me to your heart again
But oh, you won't forget me mother,
If I'm numbered with-the-sain."
Then the shadows settled deeper and the night winds
sped away,
Bearing that waiting mother tidings of the awful
day.;
What touch of tender pathos, mid the dead and
That hero, with his death-wound, family turns tt
mother then!
Yet the weak voice, slowly singing fell upon the
night once more,
Like sadly spoken message waited from distan
shores
''Hark, I-hear the-bugle sounding
'Tis-the signal for-the fight;
Now-may-God-protect us-mother-
ever-does-the-right-''
picket-gun
Seemed to mark the solemn moment when life's bat
tie field won,
There amid the silent shadows calmly lay the shat
tered form;
| What to him charging LEGION rifting smoke o
fiery storm?
Lostr' will glare upon the record, close beside tn
| hero's name.
Lost ?'' grander, sweeter story, traced th
hand of Fame.
Though the mothers voice may tremble, though tn
tears may dim her eyes
Yet the story of her gallant boy she reads til

The wealth of noble sacrifice, smiling Heaven tells

PerniciOus Activity

In office holders, to forward political
purposes has been objected to in high |
places, and in some few instances has |
met with condign punishment. Most
evil influences manifest this trait; it
is an attribute of crime, alcoholism,
and disease, The pernicious activity
of coughs and colds, and their ten
dency to spread so as to affect healthy
tissue, conveys warning and men
ance. Ii the warning is needed, and
such and effeacious remedy as Gooch's
Mexican Syrup is taken at once, all
evil consequences may be averted, for
Mexican Syrup conquers coughs and
colds with ease. II these symptoms
are neglected, the very existence Of a
vital organ is menaced, and the
pernicious activity of tuberculous
matter in the process Of disintegration
of the tissues produces Bronchitis,
Asthma, Pneumonia, or Consumption.
Must the victims Of these maladies
perish? No, Mexican Syrup is the
acknowledged specific for these
diseases, and its persistent use will
cure the NEST obstinate cases Think
how much suffering through these
dreadful maladies might have been
averted, if Gooch's Mexican Syrup
| had been taken at once! 1t is invaluable
in Pulmonary diseases, and its
marvellous success in effesting perman-
ent cures has caused a sale of this
medicine which is without precedent.
1t quickly controls all symptoms, and
steps the supply OF tuberculous
matter; it allays Inflammation, and
nourishes the system. Here is an
instance Of what it has done:
GENTLEMEN:-I never expect to be
without Gooch's Mexican S., rup in

My wife had a violent cough for six
years, and tried almost everything,
but nothing seemed to do her any
good We had almost given up all
hopes Of her being cured | got some
of your Gooch's Mexican Syrup, and
she used six bottles, and it cured her
sound and well. 1t also cured my
daughter who had cough for about
three years. | think it is the best
medicine in the world, and | can not

MARRIAGE LICENSES
Five petitions have been sent to Wash

Five petitions have been sent to Wash
ington from the various dressed beef and
canning companies to the Interstate
Commerce Commission. 1t is the begin
ming of great lawsuit, involving millions
of dollars in interest, which will be con-
tested in the U. S. Supreme Court, and in
volve the constitutionality of the inter-
State law. The individual damages
claimed by losses in rebates since the en-
forcement of the law amount to $95O,OOO,
as follows: S. W. Allerton, $4,000; Mel
son Morris, 100000; P. d. Armour, $780,

President Cleveland is demonstrat-
ing his civil service reform ideas by
ripping up the country about Wash
ington, through his agents, running
new streets through private property,
and working injury generally to poor
property-holders, while rapidly in
ereasing the value of property in
which he is interested. The fat man
from Buffalo has no idea that the
Democratic party does not own the
Government it tried to steal, and af-
forwards to kill, and he regards him
self as the Democratic party.

has sued Charles Arbuckle, the coffee
merchant, for one hundred thousand

one point that struck us as being
quite human: Miss Campbell wrote
Arbuckle, calling him her dear Baby

Let every good citizen resolve that
during the year 1888 he will accom-
plish some practical good for the tenn
perance cause. Every man or woman
has an influence. 1t may not be much
each one can do, but word may be
said, little act performed, the infu-
ence of which may prompt some friend
TO renewed effort to lead better life.
Let every man and every woman re-
solve that the close Of the present year
shall find the grand temperance cause
farther advanced than when the year
began. The doggeries are always on
the alert. Let the friends Of temper
ance and morality be likewise.

The style Of pastoral calls instituted
by the Rev. Wallace at Chillicothe

One Of the questions that will come
before the people this year is whether
one long-haired statesman in Missis-

it during the next nine or ten months.

The Interstate commerce Law forbids

The interstate commerce. law fcrblds
railways to charge openly or by device any
one person greater or less compensation
for any service rendered in the transpor-
tation of passengers or property than 1t
charges for like and contemDoraneous
service. This is one thing that this law
forbids. Il does not, however, prohibit one
company from giving to its patrons better
services than another. Why then patron
ize the railroad that offers the inferior
train service when for the same amount of
money you can obtain superior service
ride less number of miles and still reach
the same points The railways entering
Wichita and offering these inducements
should be well patronized. The Missouri
Pacific Ry( Fort Scott Route)offers such in
ducements as mentioned above and great
many more which space will not permit to
enumerate. II you are not aware of this
fact-that the Missouri Pacific railway
has elegant train service such as the latest
improved reclining chair cars and the
modern improved Pullman palace sleep
ing cars, give it trial and you will always
thereafter take the popular route. 1t is
the short line to st. Louis (by As miles, as
well as to all Colorado, California and
Washington Territory points. Before

Household Hints.

Do not try to keep your house warm by
getting a new mortgage on it.
Avoid waste. Keep your match stubs until
some leisure day when you and your boy may
white them into toothpicks.
Keep your woodpile indoors. Woodpiles
are frequently warped by the night air if left
outdoors
See that your socks are well darned before
Christmas arrives
A good way to cool champagne is to place
leave the coal hole open. II NO one falls on
it and breaks it it will be nicely trapped be-
fore morning.
A nice, harmless home game for these win
ter evenings is progressive guessing, in which
you and your wife and invited friends try to
guess how many pounds there are in the last
ton Of coal you received.
II you wish to retain your equa0imity al
ways go down your front steps on your feet.
The habit some men have of sliding down the
steps on cold winter mornings is, to say the
least, not digniied.
Young and timid wives will be pleased to
know that Mr.. Edison is perfecting a trigger
attachment for fats and houses, by pulling
which the cook may be discharged without
any .unpleasantness.
II time hangs heavy on your hands buy a
chatelaine watch They are extremely fas.
and inexpensive.
Do not make the baby run errands during
the winter, particularly if the child is under
siI months and not hardy.
Use every article Of household furniture for
the purpose for which it was intended Do
not try to get the dust out Of carpets with the
egg beaten, and if you have daughter do
not let her firt with the potato mAsher.
When your library shelves become too linn
tied for your books put some OF the volumes
behind the others. The borrowed books 60
best behind
Wet feet should be avoided This rule need
not be carried to the extent Of leaving them
out Of the tub, however, on Saturday nights
Castor oil must not be used for illuminat-
ing purposes however bad the gas may be.
Do not speak Grossly TO your servant Eye
her, but say nothing.
Keep the snow shoveled of your sidewalk.
1t is better to pay 30 cents to an able bodied
tramp for shovsling OF than 90 give IS 900
