Hoods Is Wonderful.

No less than wonderful are the cures
accomplished by Hoods Sarsaparilla,
even after other preparations and
physicians prescriptions have tailed.
The reason, however, issimple. When
the blood is enriched and purified,
disease disappears and good health
returns, and Hoods Sarsaparilla is
the one true blood purifier.

An EXPLANATION,
To the Editor Of the Herald.

To the Editor OF the Herald.
After the battle of the election for
school commissioners had been fought
and the smoke cleared away, / had
concluded all was calm and serene
and a great majority of our people
were satisfied; but in your issue of the
10Th inst. l find an inquiry from an
esteemed friend down in Old Virginia
Well, always go half way to meet
an enemy, and the entire distance to
please friend. Here is the explana-
ton:
On the eve of the election, notice
appeared in the Berkeley Democrat,
published by Mr.. R. S. Eichelberger
wherein was quoted as saying if I
had my way, l would blot the free
schools out of existence, and Mr.
Eichelberger's advice to the voters
to remember me at the polls (aud they
did it nobly too).
replied to the above charge, de-
nouncing it false, in language not to
be misunderstood. / have not retract-
ed one word and never intend to. 1t
is not Republicanism to blot out of
existence one of its valued offsprings.
Education is so essential, and now
within the grasp of the INDECENT as
we'll as the rich. Without it the poor
boy or girl is back number; but with
education they become shining lights.
Their labor as we'll as their society is
solicited. Opposed to free schools
Blot them out of existencel Oh no,
not /! God forbid | should ever en-
terrain such a thought. My aim
shall be to encourage them, and to Sc
cure in our own beautiful city good
and competent instructors at fair re-
Enumeration, and to give if possible
entire satisfaction to patron aud pupil,
avoiding at all times the introduction
of politics in either the white or col
ored schools, believing that course to
be the best.
Now Mr.. Editor if you will kindly
grant me short space in your valu-
able and newsy journal for the benefit
of my far off friends, you will
Greatly oblige,
A. T. RUssLER.

A much mooted question in Wash
ington is the reorganization of the
Senate. AS now constituted that
body consists of SO members, of whom
43 are Republicans. When the Utah
Senators arrive the number of mem
bers will be increased to 60 and the
Republicans will have Just one-half.
Then reorganization will be possible
as Senator Jones, of Nevada, is al.
most sure to return to his old love.
In the meantime it is possible that
what some consider an impossibility
may be accomplished at the opening
OF the session. The office of president
pro tenn is vacant and as both parties
will hold caucuses and nominate a
full set of candidates for the offices,
the Republicans may be aided by GER
tain OF the Populists and come into
power at once. 1t is of the highest

On the Road to Bankruptcy.

New York Sun tDem).
Ridiculous as it sounds for the
United States at this period of Their
existence, we are on the straight road
to bankruptcy. The situation is such
that with Congress in Republican
control a President of the opposition
must accept the revenue bill which is
laid before him. There is deficiency
in the national revenue, and we must
have money. 1t is a condition which
confronts us, not theory.

The Washington Post quotes Sena.
tor Faulkner as saying that the Dem
ocrats are perfectly willing to REIN
quish the control of the Senate. 1.-The
idea, he says, THAT we will hold on
and fghtreorganization is absurd. The
Republicans cannot take the Senate
too quick to please u.s."
Senator Faulkner had intended to
investigate with some detail the con-
dition of affairs in Utah, believing
that the attitude of the church there
in relation to the recent election, when
its influence was said to have been
exerted in behalf of the Republican
candidates, ought to interfere with
the Territory's admission as a State.
In view of the tremendous Republican
landslide, however Senator Faulkner
has abandoned his idea, and, SO fai as
he is concerned, the question will not
be brought before the Senate.

The cause of the tremendous crowd that blocked
David Wells store and front, opposite Valley
Hotel, Martinsburg, was that the Great Retiring
Sale was in progress.
The Daily Texarkanian., 1895-11-06

A great crowd gathered this
morning to see Fitzsimmons feed
his lion, Nero, Nero is male brute
much longer in body than a big dog
and has strength enough to whip
even a prize fighter should he be-
come angered, Notwithstanding
all this, Fitz handles Nero much as
a child would puppy They romp-
ed together, wrestled, and slapped
one another. The lion had a par
ticular fondness for Fits leg and
when he got that member in his
mouth he seemed content to hold
on to II, the same as a bone.
Fltzsimmons is what you would
call lanky mamie Is tall, with a
large body and still larger shoul-
ders, and has a small head and face
and small lower limbs, We have
watched his movements, and have
also seen Corbett, and we have
sized him up as being better man
than Corbett, and man that can
hit a harder blow We think Cor
bett a quicker moyerand would be
able to dodge many blows aimed at
him in the ring, We are satisfied
that If Lanky Bob could get in a
lick on Jim's neck, or even jaw, he
would knock him out and even put
him TO sleep.

FITzsIMMONS' SHOW

People did not rush out last night
to see Fitzsmmons and his physical
-delsarte-cultural exhibition of per-
forming stars OF the fistic ring as
one would suppose they would have
done, by the great interest they
manifested in Fitz when he passed
through here on his way to see
Governor Clarke. Had his visit to
Arkansas been one of respect to
Corbett at Hot Springs, and had he
wiped off the rocks and pitched Cor
bett into one of those hot water
holes when he arrived, all of
Texarkana would have turned
out to see him. But, alas, he did
not do this, and he is now chasing
phantoms of empty houses. The
exhibition given by him is said to
be entertaining and instructive
instructive how to dodge a blow,
and if there is anything stronger in
Fitz than knowing how, and when to
dodge, we Go N, /. know that point.
We trust, however, that he may
make money enough on his tour to
keep the wolf from his door during
the very cold winter we are now ex-
pecting.
