SPREADING FOR LEAGUES

Around the marshy, overflowed lands,
sunken lots and half submerged river
banks, which give them birth, the seeds
of malaria impregnate the air, and are
inhaled at every breath by thousands un-
provided with any adequate safeguard
against the baneful influence; yet such
exist st-potent alike to remedy or to pre-
vent, pure in its constituents, and the
professionally recognized substitute for
the hateful drug, quinine. Its name is
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a family
specific and safeguard, foremost not only
as an antidote to malaria, but also as a
means of permanently removing dyspep-
sia, and relieving constipation, liver com
plaint, rheumatism, kidney and bladder
ailments, and nervousness; among invig-
Grants it takes the first place, and is also
a superb appetizer. Use it systematical-
ly. AT druggists. 3-5-4t

THE Democratic papers of this State
are now amusing themselves with the
story that the Farmers Alliance, with
the aid of few Republicans, are plan
ming to ''down John Sherman" in the
next Senatorial race. This is, without
doubt, the game of the Bourbon man
ayers of Ohio. While they are following
Grover Cleveland, the personi1cation of
gold standard Democrat, they will try
to excite the farmers against John
sherman because he opposed the free
coinage of silver But they will find
more intelligence among the farmers
than they have calculated on, says the
CleoelGnd Leader.

THE Democrats are already bowling
over the increase in the appropriations
made by the recent Congress. 1t is true
that the appropriations amount to nearly
a billion dollars, an expenditure larger
than by any previous Congress in time
of peace A number of important
measures required enormous sums,
among them the Direct Tax law, which
refunds seventeen million dollars to the
loyal States. Then again, about one
half of the large sum appropriated was
for pensions, and this is fruitful cause
of Democratic agony. On the whole the
Congress was less extravagant than
some others which spent less money.
