In 1892 Oregon. Alabama. Vermont.
Arkansas and Maine cast an aggre-
gate of 2S7.l31 republican votes and
32O,23l democratic votes. This year
the aggregate in the same states is
299.22i republican and 2S9, 655 demo-
cratic votes. The republican gain is
1903 and the democratic loss 3O.576.
1t is plain that the general drift is de-
cidedly adverse to the democrats. This
estimate includes two of their heaviest
states.

II you have ever seen a little child in
the agony of summer complaint, you
can realize the danger of the trouble
and appreciate the value of instantane-
Gus relief always afforded by DeWitt's
Collie & Cholera Cure. For %dysentery
and diarrhoea, it is a reliable remedy.
We could not afford to recommend this
as a cure unless it were a cure. Chas.

towns. Auburn, Biddeford, Lewiston

In a fine glow of patriotism Artemus
Ward declared that he was willing his
brother-in-law should go into the army
a volunteer. 1t seems that some of
the statesmen of Europe are equally
magnanimous in giving their consent
to a trial of free silver in the United
States.

Germany has produced in one year
as much as l.2l3 500 tons OF beet sugar
and France 100000 tons. This country
has reached a total of %, 900 tons only.

put the beet and cane sugar industry
in shape to keep 800. OOO. 900 from GO

Two sons of Garfield are on the

Republican Convention at va
nv = "'u:rnvyIes.

= cOnVes
The republicans met III p. Intion
at Cape Charles, last Thursday, for
the purpose of nominating a candi-
date for Congress, with six aspirants
for the empty honor, viz: Scarburgh,
Bristow, Tyler, Coles, Curlett and
Mayo. Tyler and Curlett opened up
headquarters two days before the
convention met, abundantly pro-
vided, it is stated with the sinews
of war;" and it is likely therefore
that the nomination will fall to one
of them.
The latest news is that Scarburgh
and Curlett withdrew their names
after the second ballot. W. B. Tyler,
of fredericksburg, was nominated
on the third ballot.
