Where They Stand.

Col. Z. V. DeLand, who has been talking
to Saginaw county farmers the past week,
says the Patrons are not a political organiza-
tion.. "ln the end" said Mr.. DeLand.
"Patrons will be found i'm their old places of
trade and politics, but with this difference:
They will buy only what they can pay for,
and get the benefits always given cash buy
ers. And I'm politics, the Patron will hold
his party accountable for his acts, and can
didates for office whose promises are not to
be trusted or who are known to be opposed
to the interests of the farmer will be elected
to stay at home" ''Just now" resumed the
Colonel, "a few free trade cranks are trying
to make the farmers believe that free trade
would cure all the ills they suffer. But
told the people of Merrill that such thing
as free trade was unknown i'm civilized
governments. That it takes money to keep
the machinery moving and the best and only
practicable way to raise that money is by
indirect taxation. And while we are levy
ing these taxes it is much better to levy
them so as to protect our own interests in
America, That is my doctrine. Let us
protect our interests, but make the protec-
ton equal, SO the farmer as well as the man
ufacturer will receive the benefit. That is
our platform as adopted at Flint. And
while we farmers are suffering from depres-
sion In this country, yet, bad as the case
may be, we are better Off than the farmers
of any other country on earth"
Merit Wins.
We desire to say to our citizens, that for
years we have been sell DIR. Kings New
Discovery for consumption, DR.. Kings New
Life Pills, Bucklen's Arnica Salve and
Electric Bitters, and have never handled
remedies that sell as well, or that have Civ
en- such universal satisfaction. We do not
hesitate to guarantee them every time, and
we stand ready to refund the purchase price
If satisfactory results do not follow their
use. These remedies have won their pop
ularity purely on their merits.

Every line in newspaper costs some
thing. If it is for the benefit of an individ-
ual it should be paid for. IL a grocer was
asked to donate groceries to one abundantly
able to pay for them he would refuse. The
proprietor of a newspaper must pay for the
free advertising If the beneficiary does not,
and yet it is one of the hardest things to be
has space i'm its columns to rent and must
rent 1t to live. To give away or rent 1t for
anything less than living rates would be as
certainly fatal as for a landlord to furnish
house rent free.
With Ely's Cream Balm child can be
treated without pain or dread and with
perfect safety. Try the remedy. 1t cures
catarrh, hay fever and colds in the head.
1t is easily applied into the nostrils and
gives relief with the first application.
Price SOC.
The silver bill, just signed by the presi-
dent, provides for the purchase, by the gov
eminent, of $500, 900 ounces of silver per
month, and the coinage of not less than 81
600, 900 per month during the next year.
Legal tender certificates will be issued on
the bullion held in the treasury. This is a
very good bill, and will no doubt, greatly
benefit the country. While it does not sat
isfy the extreme free coinage men, it will
give very general satisfaction.
A new idea embraced in Ely's Cream
Balm. Catarrh is cured by cleansing and
healing, not by drying up, 1t is not a
liquid or snuff, but is easily applied into
the nostrils. Its effect is magical and a
thorough treatment will cure the worst
cases. Price soc.
