A BUsHWHAckER's DEATH.
Caught Numbering an Army Messenger

He stands at the door of a tumble
down log-cabin, long barreled rifle on
his arm, and looks up and down the
path which winds through the woods
like the trail of a serpent. The rifle
has been freshly cleaned and loaded.
The man is ragged, long haired, and
old. The locks falling down from the
edge of his coon-skin cap are almost
white His eyes have a dangerous
CLEAN in them, but his face shows
neither smile nor frown. 1t is stone
like-unreadable Let him but close
his eyes and the face would seem to
have been carved by some rough hand
from flinty rock.
"Gwine, Tom?"
1t is a woman who steps out doors
and utters the query Her face is sal
low, her frame large and bony, and her
eyes rove about and rest nowhere for
more than two or three seconds at a

interest or anxiety. He answers with

She sat down on log, leaned her ell

the mountain road Squirrels chartered
in the trees about them, the wild bees
buzzed in the June sunshine, and the
drumming Of partridge sounded loud

The laws of health are taught in the
schools; but not 10 a way to be of much
practical benefit and are never illustrat-
ed by living examples! which in many
cases might easily be done. If some
scholar who has Just contracted a cold
was brought before the school so that
all could hear the dry, loud cough and
know its significance; see the thin white
coating on the tongue and later, as the
cold developed, see the profuse watery
expectoration and thin watery discharge
from the nose. not one of them would
ever forget what the first symptoms Of
a cold were. The scholar should then
be given Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
freely, that all might see that even q Sc
we're cold could be cured in one or two
days or at least greatly mitigated,
when properly treated as soon as the
first symptoms appear. This remedy
is famous for its cures Of coughs, colds
and Group. 1t is made especially for
these diseases and is the mos. prompt
and most reliable medicine known for
the purpose. . ard 80 cent bottles for

The question is frequently asked,
'Why Is Ayers Cherry Pectoral so
much more effective than other cough
remedies?" The answer is, simply
because it is the most skilful combina-

ing. Any resort to violence is bound
to be promptly checked and punished,
and unless the men return to work
soon their places will be filled with
non-union men.
The result at Homestead and Coeur

that the hospitals are filled with men

WHAT THE DEMOCRATIC HOUSE Is
DOING FOR THE WEST.


The House OF Representatives has
repealed the tariff on lead ores, and
thus tries to enable the Mexican poems
to compete with our well-paid miners.
1t has defeated the free coinage
bill passed by the Republican Senate.
1t cut down tbs appropriation for
the survey Of public lands in the West
from $S00,O0O to $8O,OOO.
1t has refused, and still refuses, to
appropriate 100000 to coin souve-
Dir coins OF the Worlds Fair that
would be at once withdrawn from cir
oulation and thus use up about 49,
100000 worth Of idle silver.
All this at the present session, and
within the past few days.
Nearly two-thirds of the member
ship OF the House Is Democratic.
That it should oppose every West.
ern interest is therefore not surpris.
ing. But that there should be sim
gle Democrat left in the West is
somewhat strange.

THOUGHTS FOR LOCAL VOTERS.

THOUGHTS FOR LOCAL VOTERS.
We can hardly make living now,
With silver at IS to 90 cents.
All that saves us is the price of lead.
If the tariff of l J cents per pound
is removed from lead, what effect will
this have on us-on each and every
ono of US?
The Republican party represents
protection to all home industries.
The Democratic party represents
free trade, which would be the de-.
struotion OF all home industries.
The Democratic candidate is the
bitserest enemy Of silver who has ever
occupied the presidential chair.
Tho Republican candidate has done
oil that he possibly could to re-.
habilisate silver, and is still Eat it,"
Now, bow should you vote?

A SENSATION PROMISED.


We are promised a great sensation
Within ten days Grover Cleveland
is to cause to be published a lette,
which he is preparing. or has prepared,
but which he is submitting for Wall
street approval.
In that letter he will pledge him
sell, "if" elected, "if'' a free coinage
bill passes both houses Of Congress,
and "if" it comes before him for ap>
proval, that he will sign it.
If Grover Cleveland writes and
causes such letter to be published,
he will doubtless create a sensation.
1t will create q sensation for any
candidate for President to pledge
himself, in advance, to approve any
bill.
1t will create as much OF sensa
ton as it would for any judge to
pledge himself, in advance OF hear
ing, to decide q suit for or against
either party to the suit. A judge Of
the Supreme Court of Nevada did
that once, and il became known. A
crowd waited upon him at his hotel.
A committee addressed him. 1t was
not in very respectful way. 1t was
something like this:
"You id old scoundrel, we
give you just IL hours to leave the
State"
He left at once.

that be is unworthy OF the highes, Of
Gee on earth, which he seeks.
But even if he did? Would that
show that he is anything but an en-
emy to silver and to every other utter
est OF the West?
Did he not, while President, prac-
tically "shut down" the West by ev.

Did he not suspend every land
