Repeal of the Federal Election Laws.


Senator Hurs wonderful influence in
New York, the Empire State OF the
Union. had not been understood every
where and by everybody before he took
his seat In the United States Senate.
The uncharitabe amongst the Democrats
We're TOO much inclined to consider him
as politician who had been foisted upon
the country by the Tammany leaders.
Vie had been SO misrepresented by Mug
~'umps and pretended Democrats and
other "brevet" Democrats that he was
looked upon with more or less distrust by
many of the best Democrats in the land.
However. his equanimity seems never TO
have been disturbed by the clamerous
crowd Of depreciators who were always
ready to throw stones at him.
When the bill to repeal the sherman
Eilver-law was up in the Senate. Mr.. HIN
at once took his stand as a practical.
iarseeing statesman who was not a seeker
after popularity. but was anxious 10 be

Nlred that " a majority of the Senate
would stand by him he would soon have
in the Senate a closure rule under which
that body could do what it was created
" do-namely. legislate Fortunately or
unfortunately. closure rule ceased 10
be muck talked OF Just as soon as the
bill above mentioned had been passed.
On Thursday last Mr.. Hin gave notice
90 the Senate that next week he would
move TO take up the bill to repeal the
Federal election-laws We regard this
Us one OF the most important bills which
Will come UP in Congress during It's cur
rent session. But IL Is feared that the
opponents OF repeal Will hlibuster against
THIS bill as the silver men In the Senate
nlibustered against the bill TO repeal the
SHERMAN law. II this expectation be
realized, Mr.. Hill's record will save him
harmless 40 far as the question Of con-
ilstency is concerned lie IL not handi-
capped in any manner nor In any degree.
lie is ready to follow where Democratic
principles lead.
II these Federal election-laws be not
repealed by the present Congress. and
ue Republicans once more get control
OF the National Government. they win
mako those laws no efficient In eiecting
ana returning Republicans TO the Nation
a. House OF Representatives that the
democrats may bid adieu TO all hopes OF
ever regaining power. We trust, there
fore. that no Democrat In either house
OF Congress win neglect for one moment
'he duty Of endeayoring to secure rs
soon as possible the repeal Of the odious
laws under consideration.

The Heroic Manner In which Eppa Bal
dock freed Himself from COgs.

AMHERST. VA, December S.-(SpeciaD
A terrible accident occurred at Baldock' s
Mil. two miles from this place. this
evening. As Eppa Baldock was engaged
In fixing the machinery his arm was
caught between the cogs and completely
crushed 10 a point above the elbow.
The unfortunate young man was able
to free himself only by cutting off his
shattered arm. which he did himself with
knife. The occurrence Is doubly sad.
as Mr.. Baldock was already badly crippled
from a similar accident few years ago.
He is about . years Of age and a worthy
young man. Physicians were hastily sum-
moned, but at this time IT IS not known
what will be the result Of his injuries.

A
Revolution
In Eating

has been brought about by the
introduction of CoTToLENE, the
new vegetable shortening. The
discovery of this product, and the
demonstration of its remarkable
qualities, has attracted the widest
interest. Hitherto the common
shortening has been lard, or
Indifferent butter. Every one has
probably suffered occasional dis
comfort from lard-cooked food;
while it is we'll known that thous-
ands are obliged to abstainentire-
ly from everything of that kind.
To such people, CoTToLENE is of
peculiar value, widening as it
does, the range Of what may be
eaten and enjoyed. CoTToLENE
is a cooking marvel. 1t combines
with the food-imparts to it
tempting color, a delicate favor,
and an appetizing crispness.
No trace of greasiness remains
to offend the taste, or disturb the
digestion.
CorToLENE is worthy Of the
careful notice of all those who
value good food, Of itself or for
its hygienic properties.
