Pen a. know little about, therefore

I viii answer Tor him. Ii was to vote
for "a goldhug for Justice Of the peace

take pleasure in also answering He
was named by goldbug because he
was a goIdbug, and to spite the demo-
Gratis Of said district He also stated
that he voted the democratic ticket
from Bryan electors to constable.
That IS true he voted tor W. =. Jen.
nings democratic elector, and l.. A.
DiAend0rfer for constable, but from
what saw and heard on election day
and heard since | will never believe
that he voted for the four democratic
electors and the Hon. r. W Davis.
Bat if the sainted brother will make
an affidavit that he did, perhaps a few
democrats, who do not know him as
well a. poor Brother Fisher and DO.
may believe him ! have heard do
not know il it is true that he asked
for a pass for his wife and daughter TO
Ciarksville, Tenn, ana return. intend
ing all the time for some one not his
wife and daughter to 90 on it, If this
is true ii looks to me like getting
something under false pretencts. One
more question | want to answer and
then am through for this time.
Why should the Banner publish the
tax list3 Why was Mallory elected
United States senator Because he is
democrat and has done work for the
party. Just ~ with the Banner; it
has fought good fight and should
have all that democrats can give it.
What has the Star done that it should
ask anything Of democratse Moth
ing, bat try to disrupt and disorgan-
ize the party in behalf of the Corpora
ton Gold Bug Republican company.
! believe il is this combine. through
lis agents, that is trying to down the
Banner or bring her to its terms; but
the Banner is for the people, and will
wave long after the Star has ceased to
flicker aud is forgotten, if the people
do their duty, and believe they Will.

The Major aaa lid wosa.

70 the Editor Of the Banner;
Ia Major Campbell the readers of
the Banner recognize hustler, for he
would hardly give this advice TO
others il he did not follow il himself.
Ia the last issue of your valuable pa
per he says he has been trying TO give
away for three years past one thousand
cords Of wood near the limits of Ocala
There is" he says, zone thousand
dollars clear profit in the job" A lit
tie further along the Major gets mixed
up on Lis figures and raised the limit
to sa,o0n.l
Now, what ! want to know is this {:
Why should hustler like the Major
stumble over this 81 900 or s., 600
every day in the week for three years
waiting for somebody else to pick it
zap out OF his way? Is that the way 10
hustle, or has the Major more thou
sand dollars than he knows what to do
with? The ordinary man out Of EN-
pioyment could not take advantage of
this offer because he would have to
buy or employ teams, and to do either
sc which his poverty would be bar
HUNIPLESS.

aver ana the Metropolis.

70 the Editor OF the Banner
The Metropolis takes almost its en-
tire editorial column to not answering
my simple question ;" Did the editor OF
the Metropolis vote for Palmer aud
Buckner?" His only reply is: 1--WE
voted for the party nominees. Who
can tell which party is meant by this .
Now, does not this editor confess in
unmistaken language that he wears
the corporation collar. and that he
dares not come out like man and
tell bow he voted If he denies vot-
ing for Palmer and Buckrer he would
then confess that he preached one doe
trine and practiced another which he
may have done, aud thus been more
successful in fooling his masters than
the people.
His only answer to nay simple ques-
ton is a long strngof rubbish, telling
what The Metropolis and papers Of
the same stripe think Of nay political
actions, as if any man of any respect
abe political party cares for the opin-
ions Of Palmer and Bucker demo.
Gratis.
Surely the editor of the Metropolis
must see that the gauze under which
he is trying to play his little double
game is too thin to fool even its few
republican readers in Jacksonville.

His head and body were a mass
of sores, and his nose was swollen to
several times its natural size; to add to
his misery he had catarrh, which made
him almost deaf, and his eyesight also
became affected. No treatment was
spared that we thought would relieve
him, but he grew worse until his condi-
ton was indeed pitiable. A dozen blood
remedies were given him by the whole
sale, but they did not the slightest good.

cured, when by the advice of a friend we
gave him SIS. (Swift's Speciic), and
ST first the Inflammation seemed to in
crease, but as this is the way the remedy
gets rid of the poison, by forcing it out
Of the system, we were encouraged and
continued the medicine. A decided i'm
provement was the result, and after he
had taken a dozen bottles, no one who
knew OF his former dreadful condition
would have recognized him. All the
sores on his body have healed, his skin
is perfectly clear and smooth, and he
has been restored to perfect health"
Mr.. a. I. Morgan, one of the promi-
nent druggists of Macon. and a member
of The board of aldermen of that city,
says Il am familiar with the terrible
condition of little Charlie Mabry, and
the cure which S.S.S. effected in his
case was remarkable, and proves it to
be wonderful blood remedy"

The registration Of the present cities Of
New York and Brooklyn should be IN

sections Of the city. which Is taken as
an indication that Tammany Is working

The events Of the last "a hours seem
to indicate that General Tracy Is gaining
