tablets of the Water. gate at Chicago was
written this sentence: federation in

La Grippe.

During the prevalence OF the Grippe
the past season it was noticeable fact
that those who depended upon DR..
Kings New Discovery, not only had a
speedy recovery, but escaped all of the
troublesome after effects of the malady.
This remedy seems to have peculisr
power in effecting rapid cures not only
in cases of La Grippe, but in all diseases
of Throat, Chest and Lungs, and has
cured cases OF Asthma and Hay Fever of
long standing. Try it and be convinced.

eternity:-When our ships all come in;
when the sea gives up her dead; when
Father Time hangs up his scythe; when
the heavens roll up like scroll; when

A Wonderful C0nquerOr.

No disease is more common among
the people than scrofula. Handed down
from generation to generation, it is found
in nearly every family, in some form. 1t
may make its appearance in dreadful
running sores, in swellings in the neck
or goitre, or in eruptions OF varied forms.
Attacking the mucous membrane it may
be known as catarrh or developing in
the lungs 1t may be, and often il, the
prime cause Of consumption.
In whatever form scrofula may mani
fest itself, Hoods SarsapariIla is its in
veterate foe and conqueror. This medi.
cine has such powerful Alternative aud
vitalizing effects upon the blood that
every trace OF impurity is expelled, and
the blood is made rich, pure and healthy.

Tied Up.

Playing cards seems to he the
only article that is tied up by the
Wilson bill, for the want of reve-
nue. stamps and those who are
fortunate to own an extra pack
are strictly in it. A fine of
$50 and imprisonment is placed on
all dealers in selling unstamped
packs. In Cleveland O. 275 dealers
in cards report 10000 packs tied
up for the want of stamps. In Gin
cinnatti o. the situation Is u little
better the custom house has only
10000 stamps for over two million
packs the stamps were 50 distrib-
uted as to reach all dealers.

Republican Cry Of Fraud.

and political debauchery, our OPP

Gov. MCKINLEY is like a law
yer or preacher who quit reading
just after the war; he has stood
still so long that everybody is out
of sight ahead of him. There is
nothing that he today advocates,
that he people have not repudiated.
He wants high tariff, the people
have said "no" for so long, that it is
like going back to the flood to tell
when it began. He wants gold

ing "stop thief" is not more impud-
cnt. Why,thc history Of the Repub-
lican party is plastered from head

will not be reduced. The Mckin-
ley cut has gone clear to the bone.

rather than a downward direction.

a reduction in taxes is itself equiva-
lent to corresponding advance in

CALLED TO LEAD ONCE MORE.
Unanimous is the Nomination to Con,
gress Of Hon. Vim. l.. Wilson
Of West Virginia.

Hon. VIM. l.. Wilson of tariff
fame has been renominated for an
other term in Congress, at Mart
insburg Wa. In his speech of ac-
ceptance he said: "The new bill
carries in it very substantial re-
lief to the American people, and
must be accepted as substantial
beginning of thorough and progress
sive reform. 1t means cheaper
clothing, cheaper tools, cheaper
pottery and many other necessar-
les for the people. 1t means freer
and larger commerce with those
nations that buy our farm products
and consequently larger and bet
ter markets for our farmers. 1T
means Il transfer of some of the
burdens of Government from what
goes out for the daily purchase of
the necessaries of life to that
which comes in over and above
that amount needed for such pur-
chase. If we denounce some of its
duties and rates, 1t Is because what
may be much lower than the duties
and rates of the Mckinley bill are
yet enormities In Democratic
bill" The enthusiasm was so
great that upon his arrival from
Washington he was carried bodily
to carriage in waiting and haul
ed by hand TO the hall where the
convention was held. The con-
vention was by far the largest and
most enthusiastic ever held in the
State. His reception amounted to
an ovation. This makes Mr.. Will
sons seventh term.

Why Farmers are Feeding Mheat.

Dom Piatt used to say that on
the farms of Ohio it costs dollar
to raise bushel of wheat, but that
the Republican tariff system of dis
crimination against farm products
would bring the selling price down
to fifty cents bushel. The predic-
tion has been justified. Further
than that, the farmers have dis
covered that it costs more to raise
wheat than it will bring in the
market and that it can be sold only
ut loss. They have gone to feed
ing it tn stock, while saving their
corn and oats to sell.
The extent to which wheat is be-
ing fed in this state is surprising
when the facts are known. a Van
Vert dealer says that many farm
ers of that section are feeding
wheat and selling oats. "A James
town dealer reports that farmers in
that section "secure the best re-
suits in feeding to hogs by crush
ing the berry of the wheat and
casting it over good grade of
clover hay previously cut and
dampened for the purpose" A
Columbus shipping firm makes
this statement:
The wheat we are shipping to
New England is nearly all used for
feeding purposes, and we have for
warded over $50 carloads so far
this month. In our twenty years.
experience in the grain business in
Ohio this is the first time we have
ever shipped wheat to New Eng
land for feeding. Farmers who
have given the matter careful
study claim that Il bushel of wheat
will go as far as one and a half
bushels of corn.
Reports to the same effect come
from all sections of the country.
Wheat has been degraded until,
for the time being least, it is not
marketable. No part of the respon-
sibility for this can he traced to
the new tariff or to the long period
of doubt as to what the new tariff
would be. Wheat is not affected
by tariff except indirectly. It's
price is regulated at Liverpool and
for thirty years the farmers of
America have been selling wheat
at free trade prices and buying all
they consumed at the enormously
enhanced prices of Republican
robber tariff. They have suffered
the full results of the two iniquities.
Foreign countries, whose pro-
ducts have been unfairly and inn
politically Disseminated against
by our government, have retaliat-
ed by discriminating against our
wheat, large part of which must
find sale abroad if sold at all. Eng
land turned the plains of India in
to wheat fields, Russia plowed up
and sowed the valleys of the Baltic
and as result the farmers OF
America must feed their wheat to
the hogs, sell it at 1t loss, or let il
rot in the granaries. But II better
condition is coming. The new tar.
iff is fair to all interests.
