The "home market" has been dangled
for many years before the eyes of the
American people as the high tariff sun.

often swsmped the "home market" and
brought distress to protected industries
whilst at the same time our purchases in
outside markets are larger than ever be

feited by com petition and starved and
robbed by combination until the "home

State.


The 3,386,399 Republican votes elected
l26 Republican congressman. This was
an average of not quite 26 900 votes per
Congressman.
The 3,074, 165 Democratic votes elected
only forty-seven Congressman. This
was an average of 65 ,4O8 votes per Con.
gressman.
The net Republican plurality in these
fourteen Northern States of 3l2, ,234 ia
represented in the present Congress by q
net Republican majority of seventy-nine
members. Of these seventy mine extra
members the election of seventy-four is
due to- the remarkable gerrymandering
skill OF those most holy, sPuritanical
politicians who stand aghaat when they
contemplate the suppression of the votes
OF their brethren at the South.
If the Democrats of these fourteen
Northern States are adequately and fairy
represented in the lower house of Con-
gress by AZ members, q proportionate
representation OF the Republicans Of the
same States would allow them only 81
instead of their 126 mem bers.
If the Republicans are only fairly and
adequately represented by their l26
members, proportionate representation
of the Democrats of these States would
give them ia members instead of AZ.
II q constituency of 26,900 Republican
voters is entitled to one representative,
what good and sufficient reason can these
monopolists of morality give for limiting
the representation of their Democratic
neighbors to one member for eyerv
65, ,408 voters?
If the will of the people of these four
teen Northern States were not stifled by
the most infamous gerrymandering, ii
this will were permitted TO tiud expires
sion fairly and honestly in the lower
House of Congress, the Republicans
would have only 80 instead of 1875 of the
173 members from the above States.
while the Democrats would have SO in
stead of 4S. This would take 36 mem
bers from the Republican side of the
house and place them where they
honestly and fairly belong. Instead of
having majority of members in the
present House the Republicans would be
in minority Of 63 mem bers.
While enjoying the products of this
cleancut steal our Republican brethren,
almost of one accord, S and on the public
highways and on the street corners
with outstretched arms thanking God
hat they are not as other
men are. Their representatives
in Congress propose to perpetuate this
steal by the passage of the Wickham or
Hoar bill to keep in full force for another
Congress the present Republican gerry
manders. They propose to retain the
present districts of Ohio, by which 26.-
600 Republican voters can elect q mem-
ber, while it will require 70 291 Demo
cratic voters to do the same thing.
Is taxation without representation to
be the battle-cry in the North?
Misrepresentation of the will of the
people is their open end and aim. How
that end is to be attained they care not.
Behind the cloak OF political Pharieaism
they will shield their infamy. Fearing

A Heap of Contention.

Joseph Blow, teamster, was arrested
at his residence ON Date street at noon
yesterday, by Officer Huston, who was
armed with warrant issued by Justice
Lockwood, charging him with having
committed an assault. Mrs. Julia But
Ter, who resides near Blow, alleges that
for some time past there have been fre-
quent MISUNDERSTANDING between them,
in consequence of nuisance which Blow
maintained in the shape of waste heap.
The odor which aroee from this was, in
her opinion, the cause of the death OF
one of her children. and the sickness of
the rest of her numerous family. AT
frequent intervals Mrs. Butler and Blow
exchanged compliments over this matter,
and yesterday the lady proceeded to again
give her neighbor piece of her mind on
the question; but she alleges that he
threw rocks at her, and drove her into
the house by this means.

A Broken Rarrier.

A complaint was filed in the Township
Court yesterday by Michael Whistler, a
physician residing at No. 42S San Pedro
street, charging his next-door neighbor,
a widow named Mrs. Mary Brown, with
malicious mischief. He alleges that for
sixteen years past he has resided on San
Pedro street, eight of which had been
spent in peaceful security with his next
door neighbors, the Browns. Afew days
ago, however, he was prompted, owing
to the attitude recently taken by Mrs.
Brown, to put up fence between the
two houses. He accordingly employed
carpenter to perform the work, but be-
fore the fence Was completed, he states
Mrs. Brown appeared on the scene with
an axe. and after compelling the car
penter to take to flight she proceeded to
demolish his handiwork, and wrecked
the fence completely.

Hon. 8. m. Whites Lecture to the
Law students.
Last night Judge Wade's courtroom
was filed by law students, lawyers, re-
porters, bankers and the public generally
to hear Hon. s. M. White lecture on the
law of sales. The distinguished lawyer
took up the elementary science of this
complicated and abstruse branch of the
law and dug to the very roots of the
subject. His analysis of the rationale
underlying the laws made to govern
sales of personal property was thorough,
and such lectures are of incalculable
benefit to the young students.
Tonight Colonel George Fl. Smith will
deliver one of his regular lectures at the
same place.

"hts " 1t comes on suddenly and is attended
with great difficulty OF breathing while it lasts,

Nervous. Humid and Dry Asthma are names
given to different forms of this disease Emphy.

Asthma, while Hay Fever or Rose Cold is a pc.
culiar variety o. Asthma which occurs at
of disease differs somew hat from the others in
syn ptoms, but practically these distinc ions are
OF very little value. 1t does not matter to the
patient which form of Asthma he has, since his
sufferings are the same in all. In one case the
expectoration becomes yellow, and we call it
bronchial. In another it is light and we call it
white froth on the surface, we say he has
Humoral Asthma. In Nervous Asthma there ia
very little expectoration of any kind. Hay

of breath is increased on the slightest exertion.
1t is foolish conceit of many people to
get Consumption. The truth is the very op-
posite. They are more liable to fall into Con
sumption because they have Asthma. Another
idea is that Asthma itself is not a dangerous
disease, and yet the published bills of mortality
for this city prove to all who read them that
great numbers lose their lives every year by
this foul destroyer of our homes.
Witt out courage and perseverance, nothins ia

skillful treatment, Asthma can be cured even
after the lungs are extensively diseased.
Persons desiring treatment by this system of
practice can use the remedies at home as well
as at our Office, and which will cause no incon.
venience or hindrance from business whatever
