HALLS (ANTIsEPTlC} CREAM SALVE

Causes the hair to grow over a cut, thereby
leaving no scar. 1t is easily applied, direc.
tions accompanying each bottle.
CoLUsA, CAL, Feb. %, 1890.
HALL MFG. Co.: Gentlemen, Il had a
valuable Almont colt badly cut on the leg
by barbed wire, the cut being about ten
inches in length. Proud flesh began to
gather, stiff joint followed, and the colt
could hardly move his leg. / was ready to
give the colt away, when 1 began using
your Halls Cream Salve for Horses, and
before three bottles were used the proud
flesh was removed, the stiffness in the joint
was overcome, and my colt was well. Your
Halls Cream Salve is the best thing on
earth; it not only cured the sore, but it
caused the hair to grow, leaving no scar.
By close examination you cannot tell which
leg was cut. To every horseman I suggest
the use of Halls Cream Salye for Horses.

a Reminiscence.

There are lullabys for babies and
waltzes for young maidens, there are
drinking songs for the wild oat sewers
and love songs for them that love to
tarry in the cleaning. But l heard
Sunday the one piece of music that
twanged upon the heartstrings of the
married people.
Gilmore's band was playing "Remin-
fscences of Mendelssohn," and thou
sand heads were wagging an accompani-
ment.
Suddenly, by way of finale, the "Wed-
ding March" struck up. The effect was
electrical. All over the audience the
welded pairs looked at each other and
smiled tenderly. 1t was reminiscencs-
What happy visions it called up!
Here was couple, homely, raw, from
the country evidently, who had just
started out to guide the plow together
The march had been played for them in
the little village church not long ago.
but now they heard it played indeed.
They leaned little closer together.
and her big hand, fixed out to kill in
cotton mits, which showed the wedding
ring, sought his and held it.
And all through the audience saw
signs of the pictures called up by that
fragrant and allurihg bit of music. Old
couples and young, rich and poor, those
who live like cats and dogs together and
those who have learned the pleasant
alchemy of forbearance in welded life.
all were for the moment bewitched.
Ia, ia. tara-rara, tum fiddle de dunn

cent myself, though they played Wag-
ner at my blessed wedding.-New York

Republican Luck and Demo-
cratic Blunders.

saving that the Democratic party
may always be relied upon to blum
der at the right time. This gem
eralization is apparently as true
to-day as it was in General Grant s
day
Speaker Crisp's letter to- Mr.
Mills, offering the latter the second
place on the ways and means com
mittee, was blunder. 1t was a
more serious blunder than is indi-
Gated on the face of the letter. To
begin with it was an unnecessary
humiliation of an able and conspic-
uous Democratic leader.
Mr.. Mills reply was dignified
and logical. He. took the ground
that if ten years of service on that
committee and the tenure of it's
Craftsmanship during the last Demo-
cratic congress have not qualified
him for the first place he ought not
to have any place GA the committee.
That 10 correct. 1t may be admit
ted that the speakers ideas OF
attacking the tariff are SO different
from those entertained by Mr., Mills
that he could mot consistently APP
point the latter chairman of the
ways and means committee. Then
he should have said so frankly, or
he should have proceeded to- make
up his committees and to- dispose of
Mr.. Mills as he thought best, with
out any special communications
Whether meant to be SO or not, it
wasunkind to write to Mr.. Mills and
formally ask him to assent to the
proposed snub without giving any
reason for it.
But it is probable that the knife
which Speaker Crisp uses was in
tended to cut even deeper than was
1t looks as though the
blow was aimed at Grover Cleve-
land and the sentiment which he
represents, and that it was dealt at
the dictation of Hill and Tammany;
for Mr.. Mills is with Mr.. Cleveland
i'm his tariff ideas, in his silver ideas
and his ideas relating to the mission
of the Democratic party ard the
administration of the government.
Mr.. Cleveland's friends can scarcely
fail to, resent the speakers treat
ment of Mr.. Mills, which has been
made conspiciously obnoxious by
the formers letter. 1t was q mis-
cradle blunder to offend Cleveland's
friends OF to throw any obstacle in
the way of Clevelands influence
over his party at this time.
The history of the Democratic
party for the past thirty years is a
tumble of plumbers. Tainted with
rebellion in the South and copper
headism in the North, it plunged

corruption of the Republican party

most notable issue Of the day THAT
it took advantage OF the situation

soon as it had thus obtained a. hold
on the confidence of the country
and the managers believed that the
party could sweep the country, it
dropped Tildeny who could have.
been elected by ain overwhelming
majority, and rushed into defeat
with its; usual aIacrity. Again the
Republicans were encouraged by
their long era Of prosperity to in
duIge i'm excuses, and the Demo-
Gratis were enabled to- elect a. man
who represented reform. This man
gave Them an issue which absorbs
the attention of the country, and
now there is a formidable effort to
put him aside, break down tile issue
which he embodies and again go off
on political debauch under the
leadership of Hill and Tammany.
If the Democratic party fails the
country again at this critical period
it will probably never be able to re-
gain public confidence. 1t will
become permanently identified with
treason, strategem and spoils,
and the spirit Of REFORM will seek
some other agent to- carry out Its
purpose. The issue of tariff reform
squarely presented and placed in
the hands of mem who command
confidence In their ability and hon
esty, will carry the country for the
Democratic party But if this issue
is to be dwarfed i'm the interest Of
any faction in the party, and the
C, untry threatened with an admin
istration of the spoils system, there
are tens of thousands of voters
throughout the length and breadth
of the land who will prefer to post

eight years, or indefinitely rather
than risk the dishonest administra-
ton of the government

depends upon the issue of the.
struggle now going on between
Tammany and Its kindred elements,
on the one side and the people on
the other.-Kansas City Star Dem.
The Star expresses some patent
truths 1t may well feel worried
over the fate of the Democratic
party. But like all old party pa
pers, the Star puts the tariff before
all other issues 4; or, rather it makes

The stonInqton oaarrIes.

The Harriston JeferSonian gives the
following account of the stone and
clays recently discovered on the plan
tation of l. w. Bnrch, at Stonington,
Jefferson county:
@Onc of tho clays found Is chalky
white, very firm, and entirely free from
sand or grit. From this clay has been
produced pressed brick ofvclyet white
ness, fire brick of the highest order
and beautiful terra Gotta work. Ex-
perts say il will not only produce a
fine quality of white table dishes, but
also the real Dresden china ware, or
its equal. 1t will also produce mater
ial for the finest pipes. Another clay
has produced bright red pressed brick
of beautiful finish and great hardness.
Still another clay has produced the
same beautiful brick in other colors,
as we'll as the most perfect terra Gotta.
This is said to be the exact clay known
in England as London clay, from which
the imported table ware is made, and
which has heretofore never been found
outside of the limited part of England
where this ware is made.
"There are, altogether, nine differ
ent kinds Of clay found In inexhaust-
iblc quantities. They have been sent
to all parts of the United States to
manufacturers, and samples of the pro-
duct returned with the highest praise.
Scientific men have made analyses of
these clays and have made flattering
reports of them.
"Recently the government has be-
come interested and has sent for sam
Piles which they are now analyzing and
working with. OF laIe many capital
lists and experts have visited the place
and taken away dirt for experiment,
and retuEncd flattering reports.
@Tho stone found there is a sand
stone, of color from almost white to
dark grey; easily worked when fresh
ly quarried, but which exposure to
air renders of almost granite-like hard
ness. This has been time and again
favorably reported upon for public
building, but the lack of transporta-
ton facilities retarded its marketing.
@We may soon look for a East indus
try at Stonington quarries, and the
wonderful clays will certainly be util-
lied by some one with capital"

Meridian has been greatly agita-
ted over a kirmess that some Of the
young people propose to give. The
clergymen Of the town published in
the Ne1os a protest against the en-
tsrtainment, which they denounced
as demoraIizing, and as a "moral
aud social evil" 4" one Of the signers
being DR.. c. g. Andrews, the Meth
odist pastor. The next issue Of the
Nescs contained long communica-
ton criticizing this clerical protest,
and assertingas ga well-known fact
that DR.. Andrews, il he made any
protest against the kirmess in Jack
son, did it so softly that it did
not stop any member of his con-
gregation from taking a part, while
his own family attended the repre-
sentations and expressed themselves
delighted with them; and surely no
father would allow his daughters
at least TO attend moral and SO
cial evil DR.. Hunter and family
attended the kirmess every night,
and his daughters took a leading
part. The Baptist and Episcopal
ministers were away at the time
with their families"
To this DR.. Andrews replied:
81 was pastor of the Methodist
church in Jackson when the kirmess
was exhibited there, and / do here
by solemnly aver that | unqualified
ly condemned the kirmess by name
from my pulpit. If anybody doubts
my word, / refer him to the con
gregation who heard me on that oc-
casion." :"
DR.. Andrews also upheld the at
titude of himself and brother minis
ters by quoting from an anti-kirmess
sermon delivered some time since
in Chattanooga, by Rev. C. r.
Stewart. Among other things Mr..
Stewart said:
81 would not step into the shoes
Of the parents who allow their
daughters to roam the streets at
midnight and appear on a public
stale in costumes, / am told, that
are not too modest, for 10, 900 worlds.

Mr.. Edison appeared lost in thought

"I believe heartily i'm the laws of

scribes a treatment that comedies with
these laws then approve of hun; but
if he comes in with LOT of theories
