THE Smyrna Record has discovered a
mares uest in the National Guard
aud its maintenance by the State o.
Delaware. It's editor is a young man
with book learning and with bHI
little experience, or political infOrma-
tion, and therefore his ignorance on
this subject is in measure excusable.
But the editor of the Rec014 is not the
inspIrator Ofhis misrepresentation of
the National Guard aad the cost of its
maintenance. The same source that
set him agOing on the Saulsburys is
the fountain from which the yapor-
ings eminate, aud which during the
last session of the legislature caused
q measure to be presented to the house
of representatives which had for it,
object the disbanding of the National
Guard. II was then generally under
stood that Mr.. James l.. Walcott was
the cause Of its introduction, and as
the Record regards Mr.. WalcOtt as It's
counselor and, patron saint, and only
second TO Andrew Jackson in democ
racy, it is evident that 1t is attempt
ing 10 make capital for its faction of
the democratic party of Delaware. In
anaiyziDg the appropriation OF S2,4O0
per annum the Record fails TO state. |
that this sum is only the interest on
moneys paid to the State of Delaware
by The United States on account Of its
militia appropriation by Congress
many years ago, and which, because
of no organized National Guard had
never been drawn, until the accuniila-
ted sum had exceeded $50 900. 90 when
It was taken up by Delaware's civil
authorities and covered into the State
treasury aud used for purpose other
than the maintainance ofa Nationai
Guard. So tile State is only paying
inlsfest on money taken from the
National Guard of Delaware and used
for other purposes. The United States
now pays 10 Delaware annually TfI,
stores 81 800 90 on account OF {
her National Guard, and It is certain 3
that this is under no obligations to the ,
men who are now fighting against 1t.

about new constitution and make

scrofula in Children .

The following is taken from a letter written
under date of July 1. 1889, by Mrs. Ruth
Berkeley, a most charitable and Christian
lady, of Salina, Kan: "In the early part Of
1887 scrOfula appeared on the head of nv
little grandchild; then only eithteen months
old. ShoTtl y after breaking out it spread all
over her body. The scabs on the sore would
peal of on the slightest touch and the oder
that would arise would make the atuos-
Phere ofthe room sickening and unbearable
The disease next attacked the eyes aud we
feared she wonld lose her sight. Eminent
physicians from the surrounding countrv
were consulted, but could do nothing to re-
lieve the little innocent, and gave it as their
opinion, that the case was hopeless and i'm
possible to save the ehild's eyesight. It was
then that we decided to try Swift's Specific
Is. S. S. That medicine at once made a
speedy and complete cure. For more than
a year past she has been as healthy as anv
child in the land"

No matter how many or how great
the shortcomings of Senator Higgins
may be in the mind of Delaware
Republican, that is no excuse why
every man who claims to be a Repub
lican, n,shOuld not earnestly exert him
self TO see that every name is on the
list and every poll tax is paid in proper
time. The taxpayers of Delaware
don't care who the man or men are,
just so they are accorded just represen-
tatiOn by districts in their Legislature
aud levy courts. They will then tak'
care through judieious legislation that
the taxes are spent to the best advan-
taRe of all.

The Democratic party of Delaware
pays the poll tax Of its floating aud
doubtful members, aud therefore keep
its fences in constant repair. Now it
strikes US that the Republican party
of Delaware could profit by this exam
pie of their enemy. and save much val
liable time that is now devoted to fac
tiOnal strife. Unless the taxes are
paid, they must not hope to win,

the work, the plum will fall on the

Singular Stomachs.

Nature presents . curious variety In stonachs. A plant performs both tho func- ton of digesting and that of breathing with its leaves. Some plants, Ike the Venus ny trap of the Carolinas, makes . vsritable stomach out of its leaves-catches dies and other insects, and then digests them. In some lower orders of tho animal kingdom found h the southern seas ono organ performa the duty of stomach, lungs and heart. Some stdn moro lowly creatures possess no organs which may be called stomach, and yet arc capable of producing . stomach on the spot when ever one is needed Perhaps, instead of say ing that this singular creature, the ameba, Is furnished with no stomach, we should give 1t credit for being all stomach. Certainly, to eat, digest and exist, seems to be its sole pur- pose in Hfe.-Good Health.
