s'THE UNSTEADY AND WANDERING
EYE,
The Shaking and Nerveless Grasp OF
the Hand, and the TOtter-
ing Step,

All these are symptoms which put
quite another construction or mean
ing to the salient story of those in
and around----, who sing praises
Of the ''Gold Cure" for drunkenness"
are the words of an expert observer, a
graduated nurse and physician sent
out by a great paper, (St Louis Chron-
icle) to examine into the wonderful
claims of much advertised cure for
a dozen different things. 1t is believ-
ed that "a long list of sad cases follow
the said treatment" and that ire
mendous danger lies in injecting all
patients alike with the same syringe
mot cleansed nor antiseptically puri-
fied--the same needle taken out of
one arm and pushed into the next"
Dangerous proceeding, when one
thinks of the well known fact that
there are diseases which are by far
more loathsome and dangerous than
the original disease for which the pa
tients are treated. The dark side
presented by this expert, regarding
some of the patients treated, who are
now filling asylums, graves, or living
wrecks, hopeless and shattered, should
warn men addicted to alcoholic slim
ulants, desiring cure, to shun the
deadly sanitariums over the country
where life and much money may be
given for naught. Quite different in
deed is Golden Specific for the per-
manent cure of the liquor habit,
whose praises are sung in every cline
and land on earth; a peerless remedy
whose genuine merits have been
known for IL years, with not one fail
ure to cure chronicled against it. Its
ingredients are known to the medical
fraternity as being absolutely harm
less and effective. No secrecy for
moneys sake. 1t rebuilds the shat
tered nerves, and creates a distaste
for stimulants. This, with the fact
that it is a home treatment, COM
mends it to the favorable notice of
persons seeking to be cured of terri
BILE habit. Put into the tea, coffee
or food OF the patient, one box by
mail for So often does the work effect
lively, without any inconvenience to
the person treated. Thisis far better
than -four weeks at sanitarium,

fit of dementia to kill ones self by

BUSINESS is good among the job
bers of the northwest and the pros
poets for heavy trade this fall are
excellent, as country merchants are
putting in large stocks for the fall
trade. There is more grain moving
throughout the northwest than was
the case a year ago and the mills at
Minneapolis are grinding 10 per cent
more flour than they were in August
1891. While the wheat crop this year
will be lighter than last year, yet it
will be sufficiently large enough to in
sure continuance of the prosperity
which the farmers have enjoyed for
the past year.

The latest government estimates
place the wheat crop of the United
States, for 1892, at 500, 100000 of BUSH
els, or about 100, 0OO,0OO less than last
year. This shortage represents about
one-half the amount we exported last
year. The New York San in sum-
mary Of the foreign wheat crop places
the situation about as follows:
India, a falling off of 6O,OOO,OOO BUSH
els from last years crop; Australia
and South America, slight falling off;
Great Britain, 100000 bushels less
than last year; Italy, Spain, Portugal,
and Hungary, Is per cent less than
last year; Northern Africa, Asia
Minor and areas skirting the Mediter-
ranean, decided falling off; Russia, 5
to 10 per cent increase over last year;
Scandinavia, crops in great danger ow-
ing to low temperatures. The only
gain in the old world over last year,
it will be noted, is in Russia, and this
increase, it is said, will not bring her
yield up to an average crop. If these
estimates be correct, or represent any
where near the true situation, the
American farmer ought to realize q
fair price upon his crop, although at
present, prices rule some Is or Is cents
lower than they did year ago.

DECLARES HE WILL STAY ON
DECK.

Moved by the statements that he
intended to withdraw from the gu
bernatorial race, and leave his follow
ers in the lurch, Ignatius Donnelly
has written letter for publication in
which he says he has no thoughts of
getting out of the way, that he is in
the race to stay; that his health is
good, and that he is about ready to
open campaign of seventy-siX speech
es, and make the state ring with polit-
ical echoes as never before He vir-
tually affirms that he will hunt as dill
ligently for path that will lead him
to the gubernatorial chair, as he ever
hunted for the CIPHER which was to
prove to the world that Bacon wrote
Shakespere's plays. While the great
unterritied are doubtless pleased to
have Mr.. DOnnelly authoritatively
state that be will remain a factor in
the campaign, because they hope to
profit thereby, yet the sage of MINI
ger lays the lash upon them in a sore
spot when he alludes to the Alabama
election, and declares that it has cast
its vote for the Peoples party, and
intimates that it indicates a victory
for his party in several of the south
ern states next November. The aver
age Democratic editor and politician
reSentS such an idea and look upon it
as an insult to their party, which they
seem to think has mortgage upon
the vote of that section of the cOun-
try, and which they proceed to fore
close as regularly as an election day
comes around. The FREE PRESS be-
lieves that the leaders of the Peoples
party have been somewhat wild in
their claims in the south, and that
the Democratic leaders there will
never allow the vote of those states to
go other than to Grover Cleveland, but
certain it is that during the past few
weeks the Democracy of that section
has received such a shaking up as it
has not known since the days when it
organized the Ku KluX Khan.
