One rliIIion Dollars Profit

The $4,000 900 bonds purchased by
the syndicate of New York bankers adj
vanced Immediately two cents the Finan-
cier says, and if they are.all sold 81, 900,
900 profit is in sight for somebody"
That somebody" is the syndicate Cleve-
land bargained with, the syndicate fixing
the price, which was accepted although
better bids for the government were made.
To defraud the people by selling bonds is
worthy of impeachment and dismissal
from Office of the President and Secretary
Carlisle, but to openly defraud the peo-
pie out of 81, 900, 900 i'll the deal deserves
term in the penitentiary.

The Western Union.

Milton George the great farmers
defender, and for quarter of a
century editor and proprietor of the
sterling agricultural paper the
Western Rural, published at
Chicago, has been cunningly frozen
out of that paper which will no
doubt in future-if it lives-do
duty for the gold ring, as Benedict
Arnold did for the British.
But these reformers like the "Old
Continentals" are not easily beaten.
Mr.. George has started another
paper, "The Western Union and
Agricultural Review" which in
spirit and make up is fully up to
the Western Rural while under his
management, and far above what
the Rural will ever be under gold
bug management. We hope all the
Rural's old subscribers will flock to
the Union, as doubtless they will,
and let the banks and Boards of
Trade and Exchanges farm The
Western Rural in future.

of all pain, the famous Red Flag
Oil, 25 cents.
2. Many aprecious life could be

500 Reward, $IOO.

The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure
in all its stages and that is Catarrh. Halls
Cure is the only positive cure now known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
constitutional disease, requires a con-
stitutional treatment Halls catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the founda-
ton of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work.
The proprietors have SO much faith in its
curative powers, that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails
to cure. Send for list of Testimonials.

The Message.

The Presidents message was delivered
to both Houses of Congress on Monday.
The message deals mainly in routine
matters of government, reserving to the
close the development of his financial
plan in which the public was most in
terested The public, we venture, was
not disappointed. 1t did not expect much
from Mr.. Clevelands financial brain and
got but little. He recommended hybrid
scheme composed of that with which the
public has been made acquainted, known
as the Baltimore plan, and the old State
bank. The Presidents plan would insure
an era of speculation and wild-catting
and a plentiful crop of future panics.
Congress and the people will of course
pay no more attention to this Presidential
scheme.
At this stage of Mr.. Cleveland's career
his ardent friends see, if capable of see
ing, his entire incapacity for the high
responsibility demanded by the Presi
dental office. Impartial observers saw
this from the beginning Time has de-
veloped his entire lack of state-craft,
combined with natural pig medicines,
which units him for the administration
of any public trust.
If any further evidence of Mr.. Cleve-
lands entire inability to deal with public
affairs is required, it will be found in that
portion of the message in which he treats
the bond issue. This is really sickening.

In the innocence of his heart tn

In the innocence of his heart the
editor Of the Democrat says:
''It must be patent to every in
telligent Democrat that the time
has come in the political history of
the country when the party may
not nominate any man with i'm
punity."
The "party" hasn't nominated
a candidate for 10! these many
years. The ring and bosses attend
to that business. All the "partyn
is required to do is vote for the
candidates without comment. The
bosses and their papers tell the
party that a good democrat
never scratches his ticket. That
settles it. Havn't you dim re-
collection, friends, of seeing some
thing like that in the Democrat
just before an election?

Simple Questions Simply Answered

Why do people very often allow
cold to run on? Because they
think it will wear away. Why
does the cough that at first caused
no alarm become deep seated and
chronic? Because the proper remedy
was not used. The way to break
up any cough or cold, no matter if
other medicines failed to benefit
you, is to try PanTina, the great
remedy for coughs, colds and con
sumption, 20 and so cents at Z. T.

sauit at law for libel or slander, tends to
encourage him to act for community good.
In many cases, it is urged. in some that
have already arisen, if the mays" voted
openly and were pressed for their rea-
sons, statements would follow humiliat-
ihg to the candidate, and to the injury of
those dependent upon him. without any
compensating benefit TO the public
service.
But, say the defenders of the board, ifit
is granted that secret ballotting also en-
ables Trustee to vote as malice or preju-
dice dictate. which is the greater evil,
secrecy on the one hand, or open voting
and possible consequent COW and punish
ment on the other?
But the point pressed most strongly by
the opponents of open voting is that al
ready referred to-the charter does not
require it, and thus gives the board the
right to adopt the ballot method; and
since silence as to reasons is the right of
the Trustee, SO also is secrecy as to how
he voted.
