HE Clevelandites want the New York
democratic state convention postponed
from February 22d, the time fixed, to a
later GATE. and the committee of fifty
f.om New York city was delegated to so
Inform Tammany and Boss Hill. What
good will that do? The delegates ire
now being elected. How will a later
date benefit Cleveland now? Its too late.
The ex-president and his friends must
take their medicine and coll it good. So
far as heard from the delegates thus far
elected are nearly all for Hill. Saturday
night the twenty-five wards in Buffalo
elected Hill delegates and prior to that
Hill had 63 and Cleveland only three in
the state. Hill will have New York-in
the Chicago convention.

COLONEL MORTON of Fargo is wrong
in his critisism of the state statistician,
but right in his views of the Washburne
option bill now pending in congress an /
likely to pass. AS startling as it may
appear IN first thought, the doing away
with options ano wheat speculation
would prove most disastrous to the
farming interests. The control of the
market would in that event be entirely
in the hands of two parties-the miller
and the exporter-a combination very
unfavorable to the producer.

The newspapers have already started
"killing off, General Alger as a presi-
dental candidate, and the New York
Sun attacks his military record, claiming
that he was ~dishonorably discharged.
Alger promptly refutes the charges, but
his chances for nomination will probably
be lessened. It is even said that he can
not get the delegation from his own

WHILE it is possible and in fact
probable that an Injustice has been done
General Alger and that war records ex-
list which have heretofore been unknown
to him and which might have been salts
factorily explained during the life of
Generals Custer and Sheridan, the fact
remains that the exposure at this time
kills any aspirations General Alger may
have had for the presidency. Briefly
the circumstances are as follows: "The
New York Sun, whose editor was assist
ant secretary of war at the time, says
that about the first of September, 1864,
Alger applied for ten days leave of alb
seuce. lie was her colonel of the 9Th
Michigan. His brigade commander was
Custer. His division commander was
Merritt. AS the fate of the country
practically depended on the issue be-
tween Sheridan and Early, leave of alb
sence was not TO be had for colonies fit
for duty. Alger's application, Mr.. Dana
says, was returned disapproved. Never
theless, he left his regiment, went to
Washington, secured detail on court
martial duty, was recommended for dis
honorable dismissal by Sheridan. So
says the then assistant secretary of war.
General A)ger's reply is that at the end
of August 1864, he was i'll and unfit for
duty, and was sent to the hospital at
Annapolis by the regimental surgeon,
where, after recovering sufficiently to be
around the camp, he was detailed for

AFTER THE GRIPPE.
The Grip Responsible for More Deaths
After Recovery Than During Its
Course-How to Toid the Danger.

Grippe, in itself, IS bad enough. debilita-
ting enough, but 1t is the after effects, the
slowness Of recovery that give It its great
danger. In most cases. the person did not
have sufficient vitality 10 ra ly after the dis
ease itself had passed. The forces Of nature
were too weak TO contend with the debility
which the Grippe had left.
IL is said 70 think how many people have
died who might have been saved II nature
had been properly assisted and fortified after
the Grippe had been ldriven from the system.
Many physicians realized this fact, and as
sisted their patients over the dangerous after
effects by bracing up and stimulating their
systems. This was. and can be done in but
one way, end that's by the steady and moder-
ate use Of some pure yet powerful stimu-
lant There Is but one absolutely pure
and medicinal btimulant known to
the profession and to the public, and that
is Uuffyis Pure Malt Whiskev The most
prominent scientists and physicians OF the
land endorse It's purity and value. IL is not a
new whiskey. % has been before tke public
for years. II Il not q cheap decoction, but a
pure distiilsuon. It imparts tone 70 the
system p ssi0ic n no other manner and sends

ncTed viZor. 10 IS superior Ia every respect
and however much any interruptions drug
