GladnesS Comes

With n better understanding of tho
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper ef-
forts-gentle ecfforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
case, but simply to constipated condi.
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1T is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laXatives or
other remedies are then not needed. II
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most Skillful
physicians, but if in need of n laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

Mad About It.

| The Courier-J Journal Is not little
sore at the overwhelming defeat the
Single Standard people have met in
the State and in its petuleDce it says
"rhey have repudiated the only
President the Democratic party has
elected and seated for forty years.
"They have repudiated the most dis
tinguished OF Kentucky's living sons
and the greatest Democratic intellect
in the United States.
"They have condemned the abest
Administrator of our national finances
the country has ever known, and have
6isowned the executives who will be
gratefully acknowledged in all future
history as having stood between our
republic and ruin despite a terrific
pressure to which none Of their prede-
cessors was ever subjected,
"They have spit upon the fathers of
party whose name and organization
they claim--have proclaimed Jeffer-
son an ignoramus, Jackson conspir-
ator, Benton a knave, Cleveland
traitor.
"For the faith handed down through
a hundred years OF glorious party
history they have substituted 8 fad
rejected by science, by experience and
by every intelligent civilized nation
on the globe, and for the opponents of
that faith they have substituted such
apostles of Populism as Stewart, ssuch
exhorters OF Socialism as Tillman, such
evangels of Anarchism as Altgeld."
Now our esteemed contemporary
will excuse us if we say the above is
neither "new nor true". We have
seen the same thing in one shape or
another dozen times in the last few
months in as many of the Gold Stan
dard papers. The Free Silver Demo
Gratis are as honest as the rest of US.

The ADVOCATE has been in favor Of
g Single Gold Standard. 1t has no
apologies nor excuses to offer for its
advocacy of what it believes to be the
better policy in matters financial.
But the ADVOCATE is a Democratic
paper and it proposes, so far as it can,
90 reflect the beliefs and policies of its
party. The Democrats in this State
and county have spoken in tones 50
unmistskable that we cannot pretend
90 misunderstood them. We recog-
nize, therefore, but two courses open
TO us; leave the party or put ourselves
in accord with if. The first we do not
propose to do, therefore, we cheerfully
accept the latter and reaffirm what we
have already said that whatever shall
be the declaration of the Chicago
Convention shall receive our endorse
inent and support. La the meantime
we take it that the campaign of edu-
cation, so far as this State is concerned,
is ended unless, perchance the Conven-
zion at Chicago shall reverse the
action of the Convention at Lexington.
We, therefore, say to our Free Silver
friends who have been using certain
columns of this paper for several
weeks past, we shall expect them to
make the same free use of them till we
hear from Chicago. In the the mean
time we shall recognize il as duty
we owe the party in the State to re-
frain from advocating the merits of
the Single Standard. Other Single
STANDARD papers will take what course
they may see proper. This is the way
we see our duty to our party and
shall, therefore, for the time being at
least, have nothing more to say in
eeyor of the Single Gold Standard.

On last Thursday evening at the
Opera House was the closing exer-
cises of the Kentucky Training School
and Maj. Fowler was justly proud OF
the effort of his boys, and girls as well.
There were three full graduates, j.
| Wells johnson, John Anderson and
Anderson and Thornton Woodford.
These young men had finished the
course prescribed aud after a close
examination were awarded diplomas.
Harry and Foster Rogers received
certificates in English and VIM. Van
Antwerp certificate in English and
Science. Harry G. Rogers, over three
competitors, received medal for the
best Grafton. Young Rogers spoke
distinctly and gracefully and with the
vim of his life carried the audience
with him. The other young men &C
Quilted themselves creditably.
In the declaimers contest held at
the School building on Wednesday
evening, with five formidable Compel
itors Joseph Taulbee, son of the late
w. p. Taulbee, won the medal with
ease. Young Taulbee is gifted as an
orator aud with that grit which few
possess he surmounted difficulties and
came out first. Major Fowler in
speaking of him and his opportunities
complimented him highly, and saw in
him those qualities which make the
leader among men.
CatesbY Woodford won the medal
for the best old soldier and MA. Tyler
the medal for the best new soldier.
Young Tyler, said Major Fowley, is
one of the kind who will not be
downed. He started with odds
against him; most boys would have
been discouraged, but not so with him.
He pressed forward seeing nothing
but success, and .came out an easy
winner.
The girls, bless them. They never
fail to come out best. Every nne of
them made a favorable impression
and their friends were all proud OF
them.
Major Fowler, to the regret OF al,
has decided to change his location

Electric Bitters.

Electric Bitters is medicine suited
for any seaeon, but perhaps more
generally needed, when the languid
exhausted feeling prevails, when the
liver is torpid and sluggish and the
need of tonic and alternative is felt.
A prompt use of this medicine has
often averted long and perhaps fatal
bilious fevers. No medicine will &C

ing the system from malarial poison.

A representative of the ADVOCATE
was in Sharpsburg and Bethel last
Friday. People are in high spirits as
to the condition OF crops, corn is in
fine condition. Wheat and meadows
better than an average throughout
the State and tobacco has been set and
is making splendid start. The only
complaint was from the scarcity of
money. The Bath County Fair Com
pany will hold its annual meeting be-
ginning July 22nd., and continuing
three days, catalogues will be issued

preparations will be made and this
company will keep up its reputation
of making one of the first fairs in the
State. Secretary f. S. Allen with the
assistance of the board of directors

We cannot agree with our esteemed
contemporary, the Courier-Journal,
that "the vigorous cumpaign of the
Free Silver men has swept Kentucky
into line with POpulism, fiatism and
organism and caused it for the first
time in its history to depart from the
honorable conservatism which has
heretofore been its characteristic"
The men who voted tor and carried
the cause of Free Silver to a successful
issue OH Saturday are the very same
Democrats which we and the Courier
Journal have been voting with for 30
years. These men differ from what we
conceive to be the best policy but they
are every whit honest and are as true
Democrots as any Single Standard
man dare to be.

recognize it as our duty to listen TO
