SALLTS CLUB.

1t was the pleasure OF the writer
to be present at the meeting OF the
Sails Democratic club last Satur-
day night and listen to the able
propounding of Democratic prln,
ciples by the chosen defenders OF
Democracy. Beat 4 is the garden
spot of the Democracy OF Attala .
and Sails is the fertile bed set
apart as 1t seems to beg to nour-
,sb in manhood enthusiastic sup
porters of the immortal principles
laid down by Jefferson nearly
hundred years ago. 1t does
Democrat good to set IN such a
community, where there is SO
much love and enthusiasm that
even the mention of Democracy
brings forth ringing applause that
swells the heart with gladness.
The first speaker after we army
, ed was Prof. VI. q. Campbell,
} who made a very excellent talk on
education and then made very
e forcible comparison of how schools
E should be run and how they were
4 run in Attala. He wound up his
y speech by denouncing the reports
d that he was trading with the Popu
v l;tee and that he had promised the
l negro teachers as much as th'
is whites as wholly false and withou
,r foundation. -.

a rousing Democratic
speech, and scored the Pops for
their Misrepresentation of facts and
impracticable doctrines. He said
they reminded him good deal OF
two fellows who went out coon
hunting. They didn't find any
coons, but the dogs jumped a pole
cat and run it out in the woods.
One of the fellows said, diets go
and catch it," when the other one
remarked, "Oh, no, just let it go
and..it will stink its durn tool self
to death. And that's the way
with the Populite party; just let

Any one who has ever had an attack
of infammatory rheumatism will rejoice
with Mr.. J. A. Stumm, 220 Boyle
Heights, Los Angeles, over his fortunate
escape from a siege of that distressing
aiTment. Mr.. Stumm is foreman of
Merrian's confectionery establishment.
Some months ago, on leaving the heated
work room to run across the street on an
.errand, he was caught out in the rain.
The result was that when ready to go
home that night he was unable to walk,
owing to infammatory rheumatism. He
was taken home, and on arrival was
placed in front of good fire and
thoroughly rubbed with Chamberlain's g
Pain Balm. During the evening and
night he was repeatedly bathed with this
liniment, and by morning was relieved
of all rheumatic pains. He now takes
especia pleasure in praising Chamber
lain's Pain Balm, and always keeps g
bottle of it in the house. For sale by

advancement in this line.
''The work completed, and that now

marvel of perfection. No better exists in
the United States, and when the batter
les are completed and equipped they
will be credit to the country. If the
present recommendation and intent of
the war department is carried out, and
there is no reason to doubt that it will
be, there will be one continuous chain
of batteries extending from the Cliff
House to Fort Winfield Scott. These
batteries of modern mortars and inn
proved guns will make it impossible
for the warships of an enemy to sail
through the Golden Gate.''
