ACROSS THE DEEP

To the far West, on steamboats,. cars.
and stage-coaches, HoStetter's Stomach
Bitters is carried as the most important
item in the materia medica of the travel
ing public; it deprives vitiated, brackish
water of its hurtful properties and ex-
ecrable flavor, counteracts the pernicious
effects upon the stomach of bad or indi-
gestible food, remedies cramps, heartburn
and wind upon his stomach; it is fine
defense against malarial disorders, nalli-
fies the effects of excessive heat, cold and
damp, relieves sick headache, and is an
Incompatible cure for cOstiveneSs and
biliOusneSs; the fatigue of travel often
tells most disasterOusly upon invalids
and cOnvalescents, occasionally to such
an extent rs to jeopardize life; persons in
feeble health, apprehenSiye of bad effects
from travel, will, if provided with the
Bitters, be far less likely to have their
fears realized. 6-44t

PUBLIC OPINION.
A FALsIF1CATIoN OF HISTORY

FALSIFICATION OF HISTORY.
Pittsburgh Dispatch.
The desire to advance the interests of
party is not a sufficient excuse for
falsifying history This commentary is
rendered necessary by the editorial dec
laration of the New York Herald that
the Republican party is not entitled to
any credit for the emancipation of the
slaves. This assertion is made in ex-
tended form as a reply to an alleged
inquiry from colored man as to what
the benefits were for which the colored
man owes allegiance to that party. As
an answer to this the Herald asserts
that the Republicans have done nothing
for the colored race; that "they have
played you for dupes;" and that eman-
cipation was military necessity, for
which the Republican party is entitled
to no credit.
This is not only demagogy, but very
shallow and stupid demagogy 1t would
have been very easy for a truthful reply
to have laid before the colored people
the fact that they are made citizens to
vote on all issues as they believe right,
and that the credit or discredit of eman-
cipation cannot control a conscientious
vote on the issues of to-day But the
inability to perceive that honest view
of politics drives the Herald into very
silly Misrepresentation of the facts of
history.
1t is true that the emancipation proc
lamatiOn was a military necessity But
the respective attitudes of the parties
toward that necessity may be very easily
by consulting the Demo
cratic platforms of that day. Study all
the Democratic platforms from 1861 to |
1865 and not a line will be found ad- |
vocating emancipation, either as a mill |
tary necessity or as an act of humanity |
A great deal can be found in Democratic
journals and speeches of that time re-
Wiling the AbOlitionists and "nigger
OVERS" but if the Democratic party had
been in power no military necessity
would have produced emancipation. 1t
s the indisputable fact that the Repub-
ican party was the one that fought the
var and emancipated the slaves. Many
var Democrats helped them to do it, and
we're as good Republicans on war issues
IS the radicals, but the Democratic
'arty as a party opposed the war and
ought emancipation.

TIE DEMOCRATIC FAMILY ROW.

TIE DEMOCRATIC FAMILY ROW.
Cleveland World
Gov. Campbell is to have one of the
most awful fights in the ranks of his
own party before he is renominated. In
conversation with Hon. 5. Donavan, of
Delaware, one of the most active and
shrewd politicians in the State, it was
learned by the writer that there is an
active contingent of Democrats who are
determined that anyone besides Camp
bell shall he nominated. These Demo-
Gratis swear by all the oaths at their
control, which are many, that James E.
Campbell shall never be Governor again.
The idea of his parading as reformer,
they say, 'stomachs" them. a man
who was given his political training at
the feet of Pete Schwab, whose business
for some time before being elected
Governor was that of forming syndicates
to buy out breweries, who traded with
Republicans to down Democrats such
man, they say, may train as a
again.
But the singular thing about the
present situation is that many of those
who were against Campbell two years
ago are strongly for him now. One of
the most singular accessions to Camp
bells strength is that of ex-senator
Allen G. Thurman. The old man is
bitterly opposed to Larry Neal because,
away back in the fifties, when the
famous contest took place between
Thurman and Vallandigham for the
Senate and Thurman broke the compact
and took the senatorship which he had
promised to the other, Neal was in the
Legislature and stood by Vallandigham
as he had agreed to do. Thurman never
forgave him. He has beaten him several
times for nomination and will try to do
so again. But in spite of all that can
be done Campbell will undoubtedly be
nominated. The bitter fight against
him by the Enquirer has made the
Governor many friends and will make
more.

THE ROOT OF THE EVIL.

Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette.
The discussion as to the means of
remedying our immigration evils seems
to fall short of the gist of the matter.
The remedy that must cure the evils is
one that will be applied not on this side
of the waters, but on the European side.
In order to keep out Objectionable
immigrants it is necessary first to ascer-
tain that they are Objectionable, and
this will require a system of the most.
rigid inspection. But where is the in
spection to be exercised? At the Amer
lean ports? If so, it will continue to be
an inspection that does not inspect. If
the criminals, the fugitives, and the
paupers are allowed once to get on this
side of the ocean, nine-tenths of them
will stay here. The burden of proving
them unfit for citizenship rests on the
government officials, and the devices for
deceiving the inspectors are countless
The only inspection that can prove
effective is that which mnst take place
before the Immigrant Is allowed TO en- |
bark from foreign shore. Let him be
required to present to the American
consul such evidences of his character |
and standing at home as will leave no |
doubt of his fitness to become a thrifty |
and desirable citizen in the land of his |
adoption. This will throw the burden |
of proof where it ought to be-On the |
himself, making it necessary
for him to produce credentials that will
make it impossible for foreign countries
any longer to dump their refuse popula-
tion on our shores.
AS well might the government at
tempt to cleanse the Mississippi river
by straining out the impurities at its
mouth as to eliminate the Objectionable
element from our foreign immigration
after it has once landed. Strike at the
of the evil.

THE SECOND INAUGURAL.

IHE SECOND INAUGURAL.
ITS BEAUTIFUL AND SIGNIFICANT SEN
FENCES READ LIKE SACRED POEM.
Carl Schurz.
Lincoln's second Inauguration came,
and with it his second inaugural ad-
dress. Lincoln's famous Gettysburg
speech" has been much and justly ad-
mired. But far greater, as well as far
more characteristic, was that inaugural
in which he poured out the whole de-
votiOn and tenderness of his great soul.
1t had all the solemnity of a fathers
last admonition and blessing to his
children before he lay down to die
These were his closing words:
"Fondly do we hope, fervently do we
pray, that this mighty scourge of war
may speedily pass away. Yet if God
wills that it continue until all the wealth
piled up by the bondmen's 250 years of
unrequited toll be sunk, and until every
drop of blood drawn with the lash shall
be paid with another drawn by the
sword, as was said 3000years ago.so still
it must be said, The judgments of the
Lord are true and righteous altogether
With malice toward none, with charity
for all, with firmness in the right as God
gives us to see the right, let us strive 10
finish the work we are in; to bind up
the nations wounds; to care for him
who shall have borne the battle, and
for his widow and orphan; to do all
which may achieve and cherish a just
and lasting peace among ourselves and
with all nations"
This was like sacred poem. No
American President had ever spoken
words like these to the American peo-
Pile America never had President
who found such words in the depth of
his heart.

the police that they really can catch him
if they try.
Thursday evening, about / O'Clock the
manager of the Pacific saloon on the cor
ner OF King and Nuuanu streets, hearing
suspicious noise upstairs, went up to find
out what it was caused by. His curios-
lty was gratified by the sight of a man
jumping out of one of the makai win
dows. He ran to the window and saw
The man making his way rapidly along
the iron veranda roof in front of Castle
x Cookies until lie came to the Jump
ing off place on the corner of Bethel
street, where he jumped off and disap-
peared- The street Was silent and
empty at the tune, no policeman being
IN sight of course. He is described as a

o'clock, Gustav Garrison, driver of a bob
tail car for the Tramways Company was
attacked, felled TO the ground and
robbed. He was returning from the
Palama tramways depot, where he had
gone, as usual, to get $50 in change for
use on the following day, when he saw
two men in the road. He paid no fur
Their attention to either of them until his
attention was rudely recalled to them by
violent blow on the side Of his head,
which brought him on to his knees.
Though dazed he staggered to his feet
and moved towards the men, who did
not wait, but turned and fed. There
was no one in sight and Mr.. Garrison was
exhausted SO he soon abandoned the
pursuit. The blow must have been de-
iivered with some flexible instrument,
for it left bruise on the temple running
up above the ear and terminating in a
cut, and a triangular cut on the
top of the head. The robbers obtained
Mr.. Carlsen's watchchain, but not the
money, which he carried in small bag
in the right hand.
Mr.. Carlson reported the affair at the
Police Station and was asked "Well,
why didn't you bring the men in "
