rier had only put his joint memorial to
congress in the form of an appointment
of a commute of one (himself) to wait
upon congress TO demand an amend
ment TO the constitution of the United
States advising the election Of president
by popular vote there is no doubt it
would have met with due consideration.
Possibly there are several other states
which would properly want a voice in
the matter, but they would doubtless
readily follow the lead Of the North Star
State in such matter. In all probabIl-
ity such thought did not occur to Mr..

proud. As time passes on our numbers are
decreasing, our ranks are thinning from year
to year, many who were with US in the historic

on to the silent maj orlty. The survivors too
are feeling the infrmities Of advancing years.

the present generation that the patriotism

feelings Still as warm as in the ever memorable
and trying days of 1855"

use of laxative pills and other drastric cathar-

Stomach Bitters be used instead of these no.
remedies, the result is accomplished without
pain and with great benefit to the bowels, the
