Carpenter, of Goodland, Indiana, says
of it: 81 tried Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy for
diarrhoea and severe cramps, and
pains in the stomach and bowels, with
the best results. In the worst cases ]
never had to give more than the third
dose to effect cure. In most cases
one dose will do. Besides its other
good qualities, it is pleasant to take. -

CoNcEDE NOTHING TO WALL
STREET.

The country is becoming weary with
the delay in the United States senate
over the Sherman law boojum. The gold
bug senators are charged with forcing the
delinquency Of that body on the question
Of financial legislation. The minority
element has the courage TO hold out
against the Wall-Street influence and
thereby to incur the eternal enmity Of the
creditor class and eastern banking inter
ests; but the country will applaud the
men who persist in their demand for
equal justice TO all concerned, irrespective
Of class or party. II the silverites cannot
secure the kind Of legislation they are
convinced the country generally demands.
then let them hold out--hold out till hades
freezes over II necessary. II has resolved
itself into the question as to whether or
not the honest element in the United
States senate shall concede TO Wall Street
what II asks for or deadlock legislation
forever II Wall Street will not concede TO
1t what it believes the country should
have. Sentiment is no longer an element
In the financial question now before the
national congress.
