Tnc Fltck amendment.

The Advocate tries to make it appear that
all the Democrats in the legislature Of 1871
voted along with ex-Gov. Wilson against
the "Flick Amendment" Bro. Morrow j:
very wrong on that. OF course his wish was
father to his thought, for he is trying Ia
shield his candidates; but the Journal
shows that al the Democrats did not vote
against the Flick Amendment" which was
passed to enfranchise US Confederates and
gave US a vote and made US citizens again
Only few Democrats in the legislature
voted against that amendment; not one vo-
ted against it in the Senate; and only few
voted with ex.GOy. Wilson in the House Of
Delegates. Such leading Democrats as
Judge Okey johnson, Judge Henry Bran
non, Judge Ferguson, Mr.. McGraw, Mr.
Brown aud a number of others voted for the
amendment.
The people at the election in the spring
of 1871 ratified or adopted the said amend
ment and we all once more became citizens.
We call the Advocates attention to the
fact that the people of this county did not
approve of E. Willis Wilson's voting against
submitting that amendment under which
we were eufranchised. And in 1872, when
after the adoption of the amendment we
could again vote, Mr. E. w. Wilson secured
the nomination for State Senate in this dis
trict, but the people did not approve of his
vote against the amendment and so they
brought out Col. Grantham as an Independ-
ent who beat Wilson very badly in the cleo
ton.
We submit two paragraphs from The
FREE Press of April %, 1871 and table
from same paper Of May Is, 1871, showing
the vote of Jefferson county. 1t will be
seen that in the then home of Z. Willis
Wilson Bolivar only s voted for the amend
ment and us against it. We are not pre-
pared to say that Mr. f. Willis Wilson, who
voted against submitting the amendment to
the people, had changed his mind sufficient
ly to induce him to record his vote among
the three:

The editor Of the Advocate in his editO-
rial anent the Flick amendment wrote of
things about which he was ignorant It
was presumption in him trying to explain
anything in political history that Judge
Lucas didn't know Morrow wore kits and
three-cOrnered pants along about the time
some things occurred about which he talks
as an oracle. No wonder he sometimes per-

From the Advocate of January 18th, We take
the following
Windy Wilson" as the Republicans like
to call ex-Gov. Z. Willis Wilson, in an article
TO the Wheeling Register, has absolutely
knocked the wind out Of the free coal craze
He proves conclusively that, so lar as We are con-
cerned or benefited, coal is now and was prior
to the Mckinley BILL practically on the free
list.
Then Why proclaim that a tariff on coal OF
30 cents, instead of 70 cents as in the McKin-
ley bill will make coal high to the consumer

Mr.. Camden owns 100000 acres of coal
lands in West Virginia. Under this land
lies buried millions upon millions of tons of
coal tariff of one cent a ton on coal
amounts to thousands of dollars to Mr..
Camden a tariff Of forty cents on coal then
amounts to millions of dOllars.-Adyocatc
According TO ex Governor Wilson the coal
industry Of West Virginia is not benefited
by the tariff and would not suffer by its re-
peal If the Governor knows what he is
talking about the Advocate is badly in error.

1t is the most natural thing in the world
for Judge Lucas to be active in his support
Of Governor Wilson-and not only on the

Tennessee Democrats were victorious over
Populists and Republicans combined, elect
ing their candidates Truth is, except in a
few sections where the people have COM
pletely lost their heads, the Populists are
not going to cut very large figure this year,
either campaigning in their own name or
disguised as Democrats. They have had
their day and must soon cease to be, for
their vagaries can't obtain currency for any
length of time among people capable OF
governing themselves. The nomination OF
Janney, Populist, for Congress in this dis
trict is nothing but part of the Republican
plan to defeat Hon. VIM. L. Wilson, and
we warn Democrats not to be hoodwinked
by the Populist movement in this and ad-
joining counties. 1t is alleged Morrow, OF
the Advocate, recently at MartinsbuIg en-
couraged this movement 1t is asserted that
Mr.. Morrow has said he would do all he
could to defeat the nomination of Mr.. Will
son, but that, if nominated, he would vote
for him, but his paper would be passive
We again mention the fact in support of the
announcement that we have an administra-
ton and anti-administration fight in this
county, and it appears that the straight ad-
ministration candidates-Unger for Senate,
aud Cleon Moore and cambridge for the
legislature, unpledged on the Senatorial
question, are antagonized by the Advocate.
There is cumulative evidence that the
Advocate has not been favorable to the
Cleveland administration.

The Potent Hawaiian Pick-me-up,

Poi is made from the root of the tago
plant The tago grows in the water, and
its broad leaves float upon the surface.
1t has a root very similar to the turnip,
but of more elongated form. 1t is pre-
pared by grating it upon slightly hol-
lowed volcanic stone upon which water
is poured from time to time. The whole
eventually forms a paste, which under
goes slight fermentation and is pleas
ant to the taste. There is drink on the
islands known as ''poi cocktail" 1t is
made by stirring the paste into glass Of
milk. It's virtues were discerned many
years ago by Europeans. For the ''head"
which follows nights debauch there is
nothing like it.
When the stomach absolutely refuses
anything known to civilization; when
the throat is dry and burning. the voice
husky, the temple throbbing and the
hands shaking, the poi cocktail is swal-
lowed. 1t is almost instantly assimilated
A delicious feeling Of calm and rest
steals over the patient. The paste COW
ers the infamed walls of the stomach
and protects them. The throat becomes
once more of flesh, not fire, and the head
ceases to ache in Is minutes. -Pittsburg

BURN THE SCRAPS.

If possible, cremate everything that
YOU can not use at once. Much can
be dried in an old pan in the lower
oven, and will thenE burn easily. Or
ange and lemon peel dried in this way
make fine kindling material on &C
count of the oil in them. For some
time I have burned every kind of
kitchen refuse in the range, between
the top of the oven and the middle
covers Here it comes in contact with
the flame or the hot air from the fire,
and does not check the fire as when
put directly on the Goals. 1t burns
without odor if the draft be opened,
and is more quickly reduced to ashes
than in any other way.
Apple parings, corn cobs, water
melon rinds, and other things which
contain much water, and would dead
en- the fire if put directly on the Goals,
disappear like magic, leaving in some
instances perfect skeleton, which be-
trays at once the nature of the article
burned. In the corn cobs every row
of kernel cups will be distinctly mark
ed in the ashy roll. I have never
found that it interfered with the bak-
ing, or injured the stove in any way.
I am careful to put on only a little at
a time, and by attending to it after
every meal, during the dish washing,
1 soop have it out of the way. Once
a week, or when necessary, these
ashes are removed, and saved with
the wood ashes for use in the garden.

HINTS FOR THE SICK ROOM.

Keep both medicine and food out of
the patients sight, except when ad-
ministering it. If you have no medi-
cine closet convenient, set up a screen,
open a large book, or cover with a
pretty towel.
A good way to keep water fresh
during the night is to put it in glass
fruit jar, as this can be made air tight.
By placing the jar on the sash of the
window behind the curtain, the air
coming up between the upper and
lower sash will keep the water COM
parative1y cool, especially if the low
er part of the window is raised and
board inserted, AN excellent way to
ventilate all rooms.
Save bits Of wrapping yarn to have
handy if odors arise in sick room
and you have no coffee to burn. Light
the ends of the yarn, puff out the
blaze, and let it burn slowly away.
Hang this over door key or over a
pin; there is no danger of fire if it
falls to the floor.
Ice can DC DTOkOu luCO SIudiI plOCOS
by using large needle or hat pin.
To save noise in putting on coal, it
is good plan to put it in paper bags,
then put them in the stove.
If you wish to quiet nervous per-
sons by reading till they fall asleep,
select some familiar poetry Or some
essays,-nothing that can hold inter-
est, unless they have some prefer
ence you must respect; children, es-
pecially, yield to such efforts.
With sick children, the habit of ODE
dience, the confidence in ''mamma''
taught in health, is an important fac
tor, aiding the nurse and physician,
while the lack of such training has
cost many loving mother double
trouble, if not the life of her child.

THE OLD AND THE NEW.

Changes take place in the medical profess

lieve the greatest good Will follow that gen
erous offer made by DR.. Greene, of "a Temple
Place, Boston, Mass, who invites all persons,
far and near, suffering from any form of dis
ease, to write him description of their com
plants, and he will send them, free of charge,
a complete explanation of their diseases, with
advice how to be cured. He gives most care
full and explicit attention to all letters and
explains each symptom carefully that you
cannot fail to understand exactly what ails
you.
DR.. Greene Is our most successful SPECIALIST
in curing nervous and chronic diseases. He
is the discoverer of that famous medicine, DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy,
which is doing such a vast amount of good all
over the world. He uses nothing in his prac-
tice but harmless vegetable remedies, which
can in no manner inure you. This great sys-
tenn of giving consultation and advice through
letter correspondence, free of charge, is es-
pecia1ly important to the poor and those liv-
ing at distance from large cities, as such
consultation and advice were formerly at
tended by great expense. The doctor is hav-
ing wonderful success in treating the sick
through letter correspondence and if you will
write him about your disease it will undoubt-
edly lead to your cure

Almost every mans reason for dis
liking others has at the bottom some
blow that was given his vanity.
If you promise to be at a certain
place at certain time, get there, or
send note saying that you can't come.
When a girl asks another if she can
cook, she answers that she cannot;
but when young man asks the same
question, she says she can.
The man who advertises for wife
on the grounds that he has no time to
do his counting, never has time to be
good to a wife when he has one.
In addition to buying the COW and
getting no cream, a man is expected
to admire pictures and poetry con-
corning milkmaids. But you bet he
won't do it.
No one gets SO old that he forgets
what he did with the first money he
earned for himself. He Will remem-
Der it longer than the circumstances
under which he first kissed girl.

Bineham.ou Industrial Exposition.


That the exposition this year will be a
larger and more magnificent one than ever
before attempted is an assured fact. The
management have taken hold with de.
termination to excel and have succeeded
in securing exhibits, varied, rich. and cost
ly, and that will certainly be instructive
and entertaining. The fair will open on
Thursday, September O. when the Bing-
hamton Athletic association will have their
first bicycle meet under the auspices Of the
exposition management; $500 worth of
prizes will be given, and the different
events will be continued in the evening
when the grounds will be lighted by cleo
tricity. Saturday, September s. will be
children's day, and it is expected that 6 900
children will march to the grounds. The
amusement programme will be a grand
success. The greatest artists in their line
have been engaged at immense expense.
The world-renowned juggler, Severns
Schaefer who has no peer in his special.
ties, will make his first appearance in
Binghamton.
There will be troup of ten Japs who
will appear daily in daring, sensational
and amusing performances, also chariot
races by lady and gentlemen riders in mag.
nlhcent Roman costumes, driving thor
oughbred horses, given double team, Roman
standing and hurdle races. There will be
balloon ascensions daily and other exciting
and entertaining events. Tuesday, Septem-
ber. II, Governor Roswell P. Flower will
be at the fair. and will be escorted by the
Twentieth Separate company, and other
visiting companies Of the National Guard,
state OF New York. Wednesday, Septem-
ber u, will be Red Men day, and it being
the week Of the great council of the United
States, there will probably come by excur-
sions from all parts the largest crowd of
visitors that ever was in the city.
The low price OF admission to the ia ir 25
cents, makes it possible for all to go. ~
