IDAHO COMES IN.

A baby sister, born into the family of
Uncle Sam July 8. Some papers with
the happy faculty of gathering news
early, announces Wyoming as the forty
third state in the Union, but Idaho
pulled ahead on the home stretch and
beat by length.
Idaho, ''the gem of the mountain"
enters statehood with the brightest pros
poets. She declares in her constitution
against Mormonism and polygamy,
which threatened to weaken her future
prospects. She gives generously of her
land for educational purposes, grants be-
ing made for a university, an agricul-
tural college, scientific school, state
normal school, besides the usual grants
of two sections in each township for
common school.
Each new state admitted proves the
prosperity and growth of our nation.
We have added thirty states to the orig
inal thirteen and one state alone to-day
has population as great as all thirteen
hundred years ago, and three or four
of our great western states would con-
tain all thirteen of the original states.
We are rapidly settling our country.
After the admission of Wyoming but
three territories will remain and they will
soon come in. We can reach out hand
to Utah and say welcome to her as 3
state just as soon as she comes as die
Idaho, free from Mormonism and polyg
amy. Each state comes into the UnioI
with less OF evil and more of virtue thar
than those already states. While Soutl
Dakota is young yet herself she reaches
out hand to the infant Idaho and give
her glad welcome into the family.

SupremeIy Delightful

To the emaciated and debilitated invalid is the
sense of returning health and strength produced
by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. When that
promoter of vigor is tested by persons in feeble
health, it's restorative and vitalizing potency
soon evinces itself in improved appetite di-
gestion and nightly repose, the sole conditions
under which strength and nerve quietude is
vouchsafed to the human system. A gain in
flesh, of course, ensues upon the restoration OF
digestion and assimilation Assurely as winter
follows the fall of the leaf, does disease shadow
the footsteps of declining strength, when the
premature decadence of vitality is not arrested.
Marasmus, consumption and other wasting
maladies are prompt to fasten upon the en-
feebled. Avert disease, therefore, with this
grand enabling tonic, which not only renews
failing strength but mitigates and counteracts
the infrmities of age and those of the gentler
sex. Rheumatism, malaria, liver and kidney
troubles yield to it.

New YORK, May 23.-The stock market to-

majority, though in no case among active stocks
for more than fractional amounts.

EDITOR DISPATCH: Please allow
me a little space in your paper at
this late day in response to the many
letters of congratulation, to extend
my sincere thanks to the people OF
Lexington county for the confidence
reposed in me in electing me for SO
responsible position, over some Of my
| competitors who / my superiors IN
intelligence and experience, while I
shall ever remember them with the
profoundest gratitude. I am aware
of the magnitude of the task imposed
on me, especially at this critical
period of our country's history. All
that T can and have promised, is to
do my best, regardless Of my own
personal interest, prompted by the
purest motives and guided by
Christian principals. And in reply
to the various reports raised to de
feat me in the second primary, none
however, touching on my character,
except, the one started at Lexington
G. H, of which I have but recently
heard, which is an Infamous false
hood. To the originators of these,
especially the last named, have only
to say, vengeance is mine and [ will
repay saith the Lord. He it is on
whom [ lean for support.
Allow me to say further to the
people of Lexington county, this is a
serious crisis in the history of our
country, and it behooves every true
patriot by all that they hold dear,
their lives, their liberties, homes and
families to stand squarely to theregu-
lar nominees of the party and there
by sustain white supremacy and the
future prosperity Of u countE.
Your humble servant.
