blue republican friends think of
such a pledge made to democrats
and populists2 He is MOI even
true to his own supporters. OF
course, the proposition Wa re.
specially declined by the popu-
lists and democrats, and the snap
promptly given away.
THE UNION states that Wilson
is not true to even the supporters
in his own party. He has proved
this within the past few weeks and
he proved it two years ago. He
pledged himself tc his good Meth
dist brethren to do his utmost to
defeat resubmission Of the prohibit
ton question and at the same time
promised the liquor dealers TO re-
main silent and let the whole
problem alone.
The UNION knows whereof it
speaks in these matters and S. E.
Wilson and his cohorts have al
ready proved that the best inter
ests of the people of this circuit
demand that this corporation lob
byist and two-faced candidate meet
with a crushing defeat. The
UNION sincerely believes that the
disreputable methods being en-
ployed by this man Wilson and
his managers will bring we'll merit
ed defeat to him. The people of
this circuit want a man who is
clean morally, who is plain and
outsFoken on every issue and a
man who with his qualifications
for the position is a MAN through
and through. That man in not
S. E. Wilson, but it is Levi Nc
Gee, our next circuit Judge. Vote
for him.

q DEFICIT BILL
The Dingley tariff bill is keep

of a deficit.
1t is doing more in this direc-
ton than its hercest foes anticipa-
ted. In spite Of the optimistic
views Of the secretary of the treas

demonstrate that up to date there
is no wealth in the Dingley bill.
There is . good deal Of enter

this tariff measure, and as q mat

justthree items Of interest in this
connection. They are as follows:
First, Nelson Dingley, Jr., said in
congress, as reported in the Con-
gressional Record Of March ~,
1897: Our problem is to provide
adequate revenue from dutie. on
imports to carry on the govern
ment." So much for what was
needed.
Second, the Dingley bill was
passed July a, 1897 The gov

DEsPICABLE METHODS.
The republican managers who
have undertaken the job of sad
ding a corporation tool onto the
people of this circuit IS judge are
resorting to despicable methods in
a desperate effort to elect their
man.
One Of the most disreputable
acts Of the judicial campaign thus
far was the killing Of the Edgemont
Advocate, the only newspaper
supporter Of MCGEE in Fall River
county. the entire play shows.
the intention of those who carried
it out. A party at Edgmont held
a claim against the Advocate and
Wilson, the republican candidate
for circuit judge, was in charge Of
the collection. Three weeks ago
the Advocate came out vigorously
for MCGEE as opposed to Wilson.
What was the result7 The claim
was pressed, the Advocate placed
ii charge of the sheriff and Editor
Sanford, then in charge, was de-
MED the issuing the paper which
was ready to 60 to press when the
sheriff took charge. Editor San
+ ord made this request, but it met
with an impudent refusal. Why7
because that issue Of the Advocate
supported MCGEE vigorously. 1t
must not be issued. AT this time
Jadge William Gardner's opinion
regarding the issue Of the paper
was secured. Being a Wilson
man Judge Gardner ruled that the
paper must not be issued so long
az the case was in court undecided.
That settled it and the Advocate
did not appear last week. its. nom

the paper and practically cut

POLITICS AI-D TIE JUDGsHIP.
The republican papers of this
circuit are raising a hullabaloo
about the silver men dragging the
judgship into politics. Have the
silver men conducted the campaign
along political lines any more
vigorously than have the republic
canse Republican primaries were
held, republican candidates chosen
to attend republican conventions
and the republican judicial conven-
ton nominated a republican for
judge. Every republican paper
has his name at the head Of the
column under the head, "Republi-
can ticket" and every republican
paper in the circuit supports this
republican candidate. Why1 Sim
ply because Mr.. Wilson is a
REPUBLICAN,. And then these same
sheets howl themselves hoarse
about the silver men dragging the
judgshiP contest into politics.
Consistency is a jewel that don't
seem to be making its headquarters
in the republican newspaper offices
of the seventh judicial circuit these
balmy days. The Office of circuit
judge is filled in much the same
way as our other offices and this
howl from the republican press is
made because no other argument
can be hashed up.

The EeYmans &nuhhad.

The German Democrats in this city are
beginning to think their services are net
properly valued by the party leaders. On
the death of Frederick Hamann. they
asked that German be appointed to the
place left vacant, but the Board of Health
promptly turned down the applicant and
appointed Philip Shea of another nation
ality. Being thus summarily treated, the
Germans next applied to the Police Com
mission, hoping they would have better
luck. In this, however, they were mis-
taken, as John J. Harra, another represen-
tative of old Ireland, had already been
slated for the vacancy. The patient Cor
mans can thus be snubbed, showing they
are not wanted only on election day. Such
favoritism is inexcusable and If the Cor
mans do not resent it, they must be more
forg:ving than the Irish, the latter not be-
lieving in the doctrine when smitten on
one cheek they must turn the other also
but generally prepare to strike back.

Samuel P. Ellis, of Gloucester, N. j.,
had bis eyesight badly impaired while con-
fined in rebel prison at Danville, Va, in
1854, land since his discharge has been nearly
blind. He came to our city last week to
attend the Holiness Christian Association
Conference, and on Friday afternoon at a
service held at the house Of Ashton Il.
Tatnall. No. 1903 Jackson street, when
Rev. VIM Austin of Reading, Pa, an
nointed his eyes and prayed, his sight was
so far restored that he was able to read.
Heis confident the restoration of his sight
was through the influence of prayer. 1t
may be he is right, as many strange things
have occurred in the experience of other
persons In all ages and In all climes. We
would not say word to shake his be.
lief in the efficacy of prayer, but still it
may be that improved health may possibly
have resulted in an Improvement of his
sight. A great r"auy persons who profess
to be gifted with divine power to effect
cures Of diseases, have turned out to DO I'M
posters, yet q number of persons professed
to believe they had received great benet fit
from their ministrations, showing conclu-
sively that their imaginations exerted u
grea. influence on the body and its var
ious ailments. When persons arc hopeful
diseases may be much more readily re.
moved than when they are melancholy
and respondent. The days of miracles
have passed but there are many occur
rences little If any, short of the miracu-
1ous. There is nothing like pure air and
exercise, coupled with abstemious habits
aud regular rest, to preserve health and to
prolong life, particularly when sustained
by faith in the divine promises and in the
goodness and mercy Of the Creator. Tho
observance of physical laws and conditions
are just as important as the observance of
the divine laws and no man need expect to
violate either without being punished. 1t
Is well for all to remember and act on the
command Of Cromwell: Trust in God,
but be sure and keep your powder dry.
