II FAIR B.4LLOT.

The proposed federal election law
which has been introduced i'll congress
is arousing considerable comment.
Thus far little objection has been de-
veloped in the north, but the demo
cratic press of the south has not hesl-
tated 10 make known its opposition.
This shows where the shoe pinches.
The plan proposed seeks to secure an
honest election in every precinct, and
is not intended to affect the rights Cf
any lawful voter
The truth is the solid south does
not want an honest vote. 1t does not
want to give the government an oppor-
tunity to know the actual state OF
affairs ander which majority is main
tanned at the will of few leaders.
The Mississippi plan Of firing can
mons and musketry in each town on
election day 10 warn the colored re-
publican majority to keep away from
the polls is modern method of ex-
pressing the will of the people through
the ballot box. Other methods equally
effective in results are practiced in
other states.
Many of the southern papers claim
that il would be unwise to discard the
old and we'll established system OF
voting, which are entirely satisfactory
to the people. Ii these systems are
wise and honest, no one will be injured
by having government official present
as "a mere looker-on while the ballots
are being cast and counted. Govern
ment supervision Can not change le-
suits when honest elections are held.
If this is the case, why should any
one oppose the proposed federal plan
of elections2 Is it because the elec-
tions in some parts of the country are
not honestly conductedl Do the op-
ponents now seek to shield dishonesty
by opposing the passage CT a law which
is calculated to guard the ballot box
from all forms of dishonesty!
The perpetuity of the republican
form of government depends largely
upon the purity 4f the ballot.
The principles of true democracy
must be maintained to the extent that
every elector shall have the psivilege OF
casting his ballot and having it counted
as he cast 1t.
The will of the majority emanating
from the conscience and Judgment OF
the people should be the abiding Law
to guide the administration of govern
mental affairs.
As the popular franchise Is the only
way in which the people can give ex-
preston of their views on govern
mental affairs, every ballot should
have its full weight in shaping the
policy of the affairs of the nation.
With view only to making every
vote carry its full weight and influence
the government should supervise the
franchise of the people.

Boy Covered with Scabs

My boy, aged nine years, has been
troubled all his life with very bad humor,
which appeared all over his body i'll small
red blotches, with dry white scab on
them. Last year he was worse than ever,
being covered with scabs from the top of his
head to his feet. and continually growing
worse, although he ha.i been treated by
two physicians. AS last resort, l de.
termined to try the CUTIcURA REMEDIES.
and am happy to say they did all that
could wish. Using them according to di
rections, the hun:or rapidly disappeared,
leaving the skin fair and smooth, and per
forming a thorough cure. The CUTIcURA
REMEDIES are all You claim for them.

Cured by Cuticura

Our oldest child, now six years of age.
when an infant six months old was attack ed
with virulent, malignant skin disease.
All ordinary remedies failing we called our
family physician, who attempted to cure it;
but it spread with almost incredible
rapidity, until the lower portion of the little
fellows person. from the middle of his back
down to his knees, was one solid rash, ugly,
painful, blotched, and malicious. We had
no rest at night, no peace by day. Finally.
we were advised to try the CUTIcURA RENE,
DIES. The effect was simply marvellous
In three or four weeks complete cure was
ught, leaving the little fellows person
as white and healthy as though he had
never been attacked. In my opinion, your
valuable remedies saved his life, and to-day
he is strong. healahy child, perfactly well,
no repetition of the disease having ever oc.
