True Philosophy.

Thousands and tens of thousands of cures
of diseases have been made and are daily
teng made all over the world by Humph-
rey's Specifics. The witnesses of the Won
derful cures of these mild, pleasant, harm
less and yet effective humphreys Specifics
are found upon every side. Inquiry among
acquaintances or friends will reveal cures
of obstinate and lifelong diseases which
have bt en- made by these specifics. Thou
sands of individuals and families have used
them for years with complete success. The
system of Humphreys Specifics exhibits the
true philosophy of cure-medicines which
anly act directly upon the disease and in
such doses as to cure without exciting dis
order or disease in any other part.

Yesterdays political events were interesting
In both parties. Instructions for the renomi-
nation Of the President were given in Mary
land by the republican convention. and virtu-
ally agreed to IN Illinois, to be ratified by the
action of the convention today. Other note
worthy although not unexpected occurrences
In the state republican conventions were
strong. if carefully guarded, free coinage
declarations in California and unequivocal anti
free coinage declarations in Connecticut On
the democratic side the tariff was the princi-
pal issue, indeed, almost the only issue
presented. Wisconsin democrats, it is true,
launched bolt at the silver agitators while
sorting that there should be mo tariff taxa
tion except for revenue" Both IN Michigan
and in Wisconsin the averments Of that party
are drawn so freely and boldly that the stout
est '.refo-nsr" in the land would be gratifed
and satisfied with them. Carlisle or Morrison
would merely have impaired. il he had COM
posed the resolutions, little more
philosophv-he could not have adapted
them better to the purposes in view.
It is to be noticed that the Wisconsin
democrats. both in platform and nominees,
made strenuous efforts to retain the German
LCtherans aud Catholics who voted with them
ct the last state election on the educational
issue. II these efforts are successful it will be
the first time in national politics that the re-
pGbI.cans have lost in large numbers at the
presidential election elements that have
serted their independence or their idiosyn-
Grassy in the previous state election. The chief
significance of these northwestern democratic
conventions is nos in the fact that they have
declared against free silver or for Cleveland
IS their candidate, but that they have with
virtual unaD;mI;y instructed their delegates to
vote as a unit and to vote for the man of their
choice. 1t remains to be seen whether or not
this attitude will improve the chances of the
candidate for whom they have declared SO en-
Enthusiastically. New York and New Jersey are
more necessary to the democrats than Michi-
gan and Wisconsin.
