Better business Experience.

HAS Certainly taught Tue GUILTY. mat
its best interests are best served by
serving ourselves. Tariff legislation
that has contributed to the promotion
and success of our own business inter-
t~erests, agricultural and manufactur-
ing, has invariably advanced the well
fare and prosperity of the American
people as individuals and as a whole.
On the other hand. tariff legislation,
that has been enacted with the direct
purpose of promoting prosperity among
manufacturing and producing interests
of other countries, has very naturally
served to depress our American inter-
ests. The late Congress afforded a de-
pressing example of such legislation,
and that Congress was sadly lacking in
business experience. But q small num-
Der of its members were business men
who understood business affairs or ap-
preciated business methods. 1t is not
wise to leave in the hands Of such men
the national legislation in which the
prosperity Of the people in America is
at stake. Our experience has taught
us that it is the business men of the
country, as q rule. who are standing
by its best interests; hence, a large
number Of business men should be in
Congress to help shape legislation.
Suggestions Not Wanted.
The organs of the free trade party
are to the front with suggestions for
raising sufficient revenue, which their
tariff for revenue only" failed to do.
A tax upon tea, a tax upon coffee and
an increased tax upon beer are among
the more favored suggestions OF the
free traders. This, of course, is to be
expected from the leaders of q party
having no ideas of their own, and who
are mere imitators Of anything and ev-
erything that is English. Direct taxa
ton upon every article that enters into
general consumption, and which be-
comes a necessity Of life, is the Eng
lish idea Of making life agreeable.
Hence it's recommendations for adoption
by our free traders. But, what have
they to say about it? The people have
elected protectionists to legislate upon
revenue matter hereafter. The pro-
t~ectionists will not pay the slightest at
tention to any Of the suggestions Of the
free traders. but will proceed to do
what the free traders could not-frame
q tariff law that will provide a sufficien-
cy Of revenue. and frame 1t in such q
way that 1t will afford protection to
American, not to foreign, interests.

months of free trade in wool than un-

carpet wool.

Rev. George w. Beale. our new Bap-
fist pastor. had quite an experience In the
marrying business last Sunday morning.
While on his way TO church he was
stopped by some one driving rapidly, who
overtaking him, informed him he wished
TO be married. 1t was too late to return
to the parsonage: and as the groom and
bride were not willing to go to the church
and wait until after service, the Doctor
was equal to the occasion. and made the
couple one right there in the main road,
and they went on their way rejoicing
In our county Ii now seems that the
Democratic ticket will probably be ex-
actly the same as at the last county
election, as the present officers seem
to have no opposition. Mr.. James Coles.
a Democrat, has announced himself an
Independent candidate for Commissioner
of the Revenue, and 1t Is thought that
he will be supported by the Peoples
party and the Republican party.

1t is too bad to have the island Of Cuba, at

ruled In the manner which has always
prevailed IN that distant country.
President Cleveland will be as exacting
as he ought to be, perhaps. The Wash
ington correspondent of the Baltimore
Sun writes as follows:
There Is nc disposition TO worry the
Spanish Government, nor will the United
States display a bellicose attitude. This Is
due TO the fact that Spain has met this gov
eminent more than half way In a settle

desire TO do everything that is right ana
proper. in other words, the sting Is ou'
of the situation, and an amicaoie settie'

Of revolt. Their complaints are made

The cure for Nervousness, then, is

nerves, tissues and organs will have
the healthful nourishment they crave.
Nervousness and Weakness win then
