In the closing days Of the session he as

making false representations in regard
to q bin he has introduced that ought
to be entitled an act: ITO make Colds
boro a pocket borough of Hiram j..
Grant, and disfranchise the people of
that town" And by false pretense and
false representations, induced the SEN
ate to pass his measure. He dared not
trust the light of day that would expose
his false accusations against G0ldsboro

entry on the election bill.

The
Cruel knife!

The alarming increase in the number
of deaths which occur as the result of
surgical operation is attracting general
attention, and a strong sentiment
against such methods of treatment is
fast developing among the most intelli-
gent classes. It seems that in almost
every case for which the doctors treat
ment is unsuccessful, the learned physi-
clans decide at once that an operation
must be performed, and the keen blade
CT the surgeon is recklessly resorted to.
Doctors are human, and of course are
liable to make mistakes, but their mis-
takes are too fatal to be INDUCED in
promiscuously, and as so many lives are
sasriiced in this manner, it is but natural
for the public to believe that half the
operations are unnecessary, besides be-
Ing fearful risk to human life, even if
successful.
1t is a positive fact, however, that all
operations are not necessary, and that
majority of them are absolutely under-
taken without the slightest chance of
success. The doctors have never been
able to cure blood disease, and sur
gical operation is their only method Of
treating deep-seated cases, such as cam
GER and scrofulous affections. Aside
from the great danger, an operation
never did and never will cure cancer, as
the disease never fails to return. Can
Ger is in the blood, and common sense
teaches anyone that no disease can be
cut from the blood.
