Good News.

We want every mother to know that
Group can be prevented. True Group
never appears without warning. The
first symptom is hoarseness, then the
child appears to have taken cold or a
cold may have accompanied the hoarse-
ness from the start. After that a
peterborough cough is developed, which
is followed by the Group. The time to
act is when the child first becomes
hoarse; a few doses of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy would prevent the at
tack. Even after the rough cough has
appeared, the disease may be prevented
by using the remedy as directed. The
only safe way is to keep a 50-cent bottle
of the Remedy in the house for use
whenever symptoms of the disease ap-
pear. For sale by PATTERSON & Sons,

THE Kangaroo ballot seems to have
worked pretty well after all. 1t was
passed by the Democracy, and they
thought it would work to the disad-
vantage of the Republicans. The official
returns show that 1886 votes more
were cast for Mckinley than for Harris,
and that 1886 more votes were cast for
Campbell than for Marquis. This shows
then that there were about $1,000 blum
derers in the State and the Democrats
had majority of 5000 of these. That
man the Democratic State Committee
had out instructing the people how to
vote, seems not to have been eminently
successful In this result the superior
intelligence.of the Republicans is shown.

Works, had the highest majority on the

THE coming session of the Legislature

A large majority brings its dangers, and
this one promises to be no exception to
the rule. OF course, there are good
many things which must necessarily
come up for consideration, but the
danger lies in that there will be too
much done rather than not enough.
There is a Senator to eject, congress
ional apportionment bill to pass, and
the regular appropriations to look after,
but beyond these the law making body
will need to go slow. The last unla-
mented Legislature started in to break
the record. and did it. 1t passed more
bills than any other similar body in the
history of any State in the Union. The
mess made of it everyone knows. To
say they were Democrats will not
answer. They were men, and if they
had not as much sense as Republicans,
they were actuated by the same desires.

please his constituents best by keeping

is much legitimate business to be done,

of both Houses will need to hold a
tight rein in order to have adjournment

THE Democratic Cadiz Sentinel seems
to be sour on some of its Democratic as
sociates. 1t believes in engaging in some
disciplining. This is what it says:
There ought to be no division at the next Dem
ocratic State Convention. II Congressman Mike
Harter, of Mansfield, is in the Convention he
should be expelled. He has circulated Republican
literature the State during the past year, and
his position of COngressman-elect, gave him the
position held by Judas among the disciples. 10
condemn the Cincinnati Enquirer, and leave Har-
ter alone, would be to endorse Satan and let his
chief imp go free.
We never before heard Mike Harter
accused of being Republican, but the
Sentinel would expel him because he
was honesti in his opposition to free sill
yer, and said SO. Honor has no place
in Democracy.

The Counsel for the Prisoners TO Argue
on Their Demurrer.
ATLANTA, GA, May 13.-Justice Lamar
of the federal supreme court will occupy
the bench with Judge Newman when the
case against the Marietta blind tiger men
comes up here on May 81. These prison
ers-George r. Sanger, Dennis Alex
ander, Isaac Smith and Charles Porter-are
accused of numbering Joseph Wright and
conspIring TO fix the crime on Caleb Cog
gins, who ia now in the penitentiary.
Wright and Goggins were witnesses against
the blind tiger men in certain liquor cases.
On their evidence several indict-
ments were returned, but before the
cases could come up for trial Wright was
shot dead while walking with his wife, and
Goggins was convicted of his murder. Thus
was all the evidence against the gang gotten
rid of. Goggins always protested
his innocence, and the federal
marshals, suspecting a conspiracy, arrested
Sanger and his pals. accusing them of hav-
ing committed the crime attributed to Cog
gins. A demurrer is to be filed by the de-
tense in the case, and it is that which
Justice Lamar is to hear
