Against no candidate on the Peoples
ticket are the combined attacks Of the
opposition directed with more persist
ency than against our candidate for
sheriff. Conscious of his sterling worth
a. . man and his qualifications for the
Office for which he has been named, as
well As his popularity with the people,
his opponents are at their wits end for
some method to defeat him. Among
other things, they are circulating the
report that he is . weak candidate, that
he has no strength at home, is unpop-
ular with his neighbors. Of course,
these things are told outside Of Speare-
vile township. If man we're to talk
that way in or around Speareville, he
would be told to 90 soak his head or
get bored for the simples. Mr.. Imel's
neighbors, who know him best, have
elected him to Office year after year un-
I'll he positively refused longer to hold
Office. That is the way he is unpopu-
lar ct home. We warn our friends
throughout the county to pay no atten-
ton to such tales. If it was true that
he 10 . weak man, it would not be nee.
essary to make . fight on him and the
mere fact that . most bitter fight is be-
ing waged against him proves, conclus-
lively, that his opponents believe him
to be very strong. A better nomina-
ton for that Office could not have been
made by the Peoples party. He rep
resents, in all respects, the farmer. A
genuine farmer himself, he came to this
county about fourteen years ago and by
patient and persistent industry and by
the labor Of his own right arm and the
activity Of his brain, coupled with So
briefly and economy, has made for him
self and family home where can be
found al the comforts and luxuries that
come as the reward of faithful toll.
Faithful to his friends, loyal to his par
ty, worthy in every respect, he will be
tTiumphantly elected.

THE TAIL OF THE EURO.
PEAN GOLD KITE.

1t is singular fact that parties may
come witness the democratic triumph
in 1884, and parties may 60 witness
its defeat in 1882 but the bankers
rule goes on forever. With the bold
and, We might say, half-de6ant attitude
of the republican party on the tariff
question, toward Europe in general and
England in particular, We might expect
said party to exhibit some spirit Of in
dependence in regard to the money
question. But no, the whole matter is
left to the dictation of bankers here and
bankers in Europe. Many Of the great
banks of America are but American
agents of European banking houses.

attitude Of our government
be changed; that We become emancipat-
ed as a nation from the thralldom OF
the "Money Kings of Europe and
America and that independence be made
to mean something from this time for

think the foregoing remarks are un-

LONDON, Sept. 24-The reporter Of
the Associated Press has had an inter-
view with the Rothschilds, speysrs,
Lazard Bros. and other BANKERS and
they all agreed in their statements that
further shipments Of gold are going to
America. The chief clerk of the
Rothschilds' house said that it was un-
certain whether France would make the
bulk VI the gold exports or whether the
burden would fall on England. But
considering the fact that France has .
worst harvest than England it would
seem that she should send the bulk Of
the gold. The Bank Of France may,
however, a. on former occasions OBJ
struet the imports BY raising the prem
ium on full-weight coin. The Bank Of
England is certain to raise the rate Of

clerk, more gold viii 90 to Amsrics in
spite Of the efforts to prevent it.
In an interview with Mr.. Robert Gif-
fen, head Of the commercial department
and comptroller Of corn returns Of the
British board Of trade, he vas asked
what truth there was in the calculation
that England and the continent would
be forced to part with gold amounting
70 x600, ,00O, 900 TO pay for imports Of
Americaa grain. Mr.. Giffen ridiculed
the estimate. He ssid before f10. 600,

Larceny and Mutilation of Dogs

There was considerable excitement
aroused over the arrest, last Thursday,
of Franz Fiebinger, living next to JOSH
& Habhegger's cold storage building,
on the charge of dog larceny. The dogs
of several of our citizens had mysteri-
ously disappeared and could not be
found, Notwithstanding a dihgent
search had been made for them. A
dog belonging to G. Fuermann, which
had been away several days, came back
to it's owner in a mutilated condition,
and this served as clue and led to the
suspecting of Fiebinger, who owns a
small place in Emmett across the North
western track from the Flavin farm.
Here the officers went, and many evil
dences,were seen Of Fiebinger's guilt
Carcasses of dogs were scattered about
the premises, and L. FL. Cordes found
the hide of his beautiful Newfoundland
just ready for tanning. Several dogs
were dug up from their burial places
and recognized by their owners. Geo.
W. Evans found his fine coach dog shot
through the head and mutilated in diff
ferent ways. Mr.. Cordes' dog was also
shot through the head, J. P Herzog's
dog being disposed of in the same way
and the body dragged to the side of the
creek. In the building on the place
were discovered articles innumerable
and all kinds of carpenter tools, many
of them apparently new. The whole
place bore the appearance of a COM
plete robbers roost. Some of the arti-
cles found could never be of use to a
person in Fiebinger's circumstances,
and the question with many is, were
these goods collected by a klepto-
maniac?
Fiebinger was taken before Justice
Stacy and placed under 800 bail for
trial, which was set for the Monday fol-
lowing. Not procuring bail, Fiebinger
was lodged in Jail. Monday, Fiebin-
gers trial came Oh before Justice Stacy
and he was fined $50 and costs, the lat
ter amounting to about $50. Iu default
of paying the fine the prisoner was
sent to Jail for thirty days.

What Is Good Baking Powder2

1t is well known fact that carbon
ate of ammonia is used by bakers in
the preparation of the finest and most
wholesome bread and cake, and has
been from time immemorial. It is
among the oldest and at the same time
most healthful constituents Of baking
powders. 1t is all evolved in gas by
the heat of the oven, and leaves no
trace of itself in the food, and it is this
that gives it its great value as Ieaven-

Best Nourishment for Consumptives

Consumptive persons are said to be
greatly benefited by the use of Speer's
Port Grape wine, both fermented and
unfermented. 1t seems to give nour-
ishment when everything else fails.
The rich properties of the wine derived
from the iron in the soil on which the
grapes grow make new blood, and if it
does not cure, we believe it prolongs
life in many cases Of consumption. In
fact, cases have been reported of per
feet cures being effected by the use OF
Speer's Port wine.
