We understand that some of the
colored men in this town are not re-
spending as enthusiastically as form
erly to the appeals of the Republican
leaders. They are becoming disgust
ed with the men who only care for
them at election time. They are
slowly but surely discovering in which
party are their real friends.

Just about election time the colored
men of this town are very much
sought after by certain Republicans
who have no use for them at any
other time. Let the colored men re-
fleot a little and consider who are
their friends all the year round. To
whom do they go for favors? Who
treat them with the most respect and
kindness Is it Democrats or Repub-
licans

Donorrnfs aroused.

An enthusiastic and enjoyable Dem
ocratic meeting was held in Shep-
berdstown last Friday evening, when
Chas. A. Little, Esq, and Col. Bueh-
anan Schley, of Hagerstown, deliv-
cred addresses. A canopy of bunting
and flowers had been built on the
College portico, and from this the ad-
dresses were made. E. l. Lee, Esq,
president of the Democratic CLUB,
presided and introduced the speakers.
Mr.. Little made the first speech, and
for an hour and a-half held the
closest attention of his hearers in a
most logical, pointed and intelligent
address. His main theme was the
tariff, and his presentation OF It's
fallacies was mastery one. Mr..
Little made great impression upon
his audience. We have heard COM
plimentary illusions to him from all
sides. Col. Schley-the inimitable
and always entertaining Colonel
followed Mr.. Little in one of his
characteristic addresses. He inter
ested his hearers from the first word,
and as with ridicule and sarcasm, and
pointed stories to illustrate his sub
iect. he went for the enemy, the
enthusiasm broke out again and
again, and the audience alternately
roared with laughter and cheered in
delight. Col. Schley closed his speech
with an eloquent and touching tribute
to Hon. VIM. L. Wilson, our candi-
date for Congress, that called forth
prolonged and vigorous applause.
At the conclusion of their speeches
both gentlemen were presented with
lovely bouquets sent them by the
ladies.
At its meeting Saturday night, on
motion of Mr.. b. +. Harrison, the
WIN. l.. Wilson Democratic Club or
dered "a unanimous vote of thanks
to Col. Buchanan Schley and the Hon.
c.. A. Little, of Hagerstown, for their
able, eloquent and sound exposition
of the great issues at stake III the APP
preaching Congressional election; and
hereby expresses high appreciation
of their kindness for coming to aid us
with their presence and talent; and
in true Virginia reciprocation trust
that their gallant McKaig and our
heroic Wilson will sit together in the
next Congress-; and that this resolu-
ton be spread upon the minutes of
this club, be published in the Shep-
herdstown REGISTER and copies be
sent to our honored speakers, Messrs.
Schley and Little"
Saturday evening Hon. Alex. Parks,
candidate for the State Senate, &C
companied by Mr.. r. S. Eichelberger,
of Martinsburg, dropped in on the
club meeting. Being called on for
speeches, Mr.. Eichelberger responded
i'm few earnest and well-chosen re-
marks, and then Mr.. Parks made a
practical and effective talk on the
issues of the day, State and national
His speech was one that was full OF
the spirit of genuine Democracy, and
he made a very favorable impression
upon the voters present,
Tuesday night Hon. b. ID. Gibson,
one of our candidates for the Legis-
lature, was present, and though the
night was a very Indictment, one a
fair-sized audience greeted the
speaker, who has many friends here.
Mr.. Gibson made a fine address on
the issues of the day, and when he
closed Mr.. A. S. cambridge responded
to the calls of the audience and
made brief though very forcible
speech.

The Mckinley bill imposes heavy
tax on sulphuric acid, one of the chief
ingredients of fertilizers. AS a conse-
quence the price of fertilizers for the
next years crop will doubtless be
considerably advanced. Remember
this, farmers, when you vote next
Tuesday-remember that this bill is a
Republican measure.

The sugar manufacturers, by the
admission Of free raw sugar, have an
opportunity to lower the price OF
sugar two cents pound. But the
sugar trust, which has perfect mo-
nopoly of the business, is not very
likely to give that two cents to the
people when it has the power to put
it in its own capacious NAV.

Under the Mckinley bill sulphuric
acid, which has always been on the
free list, is now dutiable at / cent
per pound. We are informed that it
requires nearly 1900 pounds of acid to
dissolve one ton of South Carolina
rock. This being the case, it will
cost the manufacturer four dollars
more under the Mckinley tariff to
dissolve one ton of South Carolina
rock. Who will pay this high-tariff
difference?

some cover. Taken altogether the
book, which is compiled by Mr.. Thos.

bronch1al1s. The worm that causes all
the trouble is filaria, and it is found
most abundantly in the bronchial tubes,
or branches Of the trachea. A lamb
affected will sometimes strangle and
cough till it falls, as in the illustration.
The great difficulty of reaching these
parasites with any kind of anthelmintio,
or parasitic destroyer, is that the medi-
cine must first reach the stomach and
then become absorbed by the circulation
before it acts on the worms, when it does
so as an excitent through the lobes of
the lungs. The various remedies that
have been tried from time to time have
resulted in q cure in most cases where
the lamb has not gone too far in deple-
ton, and is so weak as to succumb under
the treatment.
Garlic in dry, powdered state, given
IN bran, burnt oats, sunflower seed and
ground cloves has been tried with sue
cess so far, but unless the lamb has
been accustomed to dried food it can not
be given to do much good. As these in
gradients are volatile, they act on the
filaria adhering to the mucous mem
brane of the windpipe like so many
leeches and depicting the animal of all
vitality, and rendering them in meas
ure bloodless. Asafetida, among other
remedies, can be used like the last men
toned. in powdered state. We have
found this to be more Supplying,
especially for lambs.
Salicylic acid given in small quanti-
ties, in water to drink, was tried with
uncertain success; the live parasites
thrown out of the mouth were taken up
by healthy sheep and we're spread in the
flock in that way. And even if the en-
bryo or egg becomes detached it propa.
gates in the water, and will keep alive,
especially if the water is stagnant, till

successful treatment is turpentine one
dram, spirits of camphor one dram;
dose, teaspoonful mixed in a table,
spoonful of molasses, either warm
the molasses or add q little boil
ing water. We nave given it with a
syringe instead of spoon, and the lamb
standing on all tours, instead of turning
him up and running the risk of choking
him to death. The turpentine given
with the spirits of camphor becomes a
strong anthelmintic, sets free all the
parasites that are securely rolled up in
the pulmonary tissues, when they be-
come strangled, unable to hold on to the
membrane; and as result are coughed
up and either die on the pasture or are
picked up by fowls or other sheep.
Therefore no lambs ought to be allowed
to pasture on any ground that old sheep
have occupied, but as soon as possible
after weaving be turned on to a fresh
pasture till frost has cleaned the old
pasture.
No. represents scab in sheep, when
it is not developed so as to be known to
any one but the experienced shepherd.
before the sheep begins to scratch
and leave patches of wool here and
there on every bush or post. The best
treatment for scab is carbolated dip
properly prepared with basis that re-.
tains it in solution and leaves a sub
stantial residue on the skin which acts
as a healing balsam, while the medi-
Gated fluid has fulfilled it's mission in de-
stroying the acari or scab, or any other
insect that annoys the animal. The
usual treatment is dipping in a solution
of tobacco and sulphur. Take 4 or.
of tobacco, I OF. of sulphur and gal
Ion of water. Make enough for your
flock. Bring the water to a boiling
heat, then steen the tobacco thoroughly,

When reduced to 100 degrees of temper
allure it is ready for use. Immerse the
sheep in it completely, all but the head.
Remove hard scabs carefully and wash
the raw surfaces. Keep the sheep in a
yard till done dripping.
If prepared sulphate of iron and salt
are mixed and given to the sheep as a
blood-cleansing remedy, many other
diseases besides scab would be prevented.
Some shepherds may wonder why we do
not recommend sulphur as az improve
ment to the above mixture, with SALT
In small focks we approve it, where the
sheep can be sheltered by shed or barn;
but not for sheep that are always in the
open air, exposed to the inclemency of

too much sulphur would become bar
ometer, and death would ensue.

A gentleman was telling me lately
that among tho hobbies of, James Rus

Christian races. Mr.. Lowell holds that
about eight hundred Of the greatest
families in Europe and America, which
are reputed to be orthodox Christians,
have the Jewish STRAIN in them. After
he had proved to his own satisfaction
that such was the case, he was mis-
chievously asked If this view came from
any personal interest, whereupon he 10
said to have replied: "Why, yes, Of
course. Every body named Lowell and
Russell has the Jewish strain in them. {"
He then went on to show the derivation
of Russell, and said that all the Russell
or. Derby family in England were Of
partial Jewish stock. The same is the
view taken by Renan in his works that
the Christian and the Jew together have
built up the system of civilization, but
