FREE TO EVERY MAN.

The Method OF a Great Treatment for Weak
ness of allen. Which Cared Him After
Everything Else Failed.
Painful diseases are bad enough, but
when a man is slowly wasting away with
nervous weakness, the mental forebodinps
are ten times worse than the most severe
pain. There is no let up to the mental
suffering day or night. Sleep is almost
impossible and under such a strain men
are scarcely responsible for what they do.
For years the writer rolled and tossed on
the troubled sea OF sexual weakness until
1T was question whether he had not bet
ter take a dose of poison and thus end all
his troubles. But providential inspiration
came to his aid in the shape of COM
bination of medicines that not only com
pletely restored the general health, but
enlarged his weak, emaciated parts to
natural size and yigor, and he now declares
that any man who will take the trouble to
send his name and address may have the
method Of this wonderful treatment free

Opposed 10 Investigation.

The Every Evening is bitterly opposed
to the movement in Congress to have the
course pursued by the Democrats at the
Z late election thoroughly Investigated by a
committee appointed by that body. II
the actions of the Democrats were such
as to commend them to approval by hon
est men, we do not see why 1t should be OPP
posed to the most searching Investigation.
Z That the Union Republicans were cheated
out of the election of the members of the
Legislature, does not admit of doubt Inc
voters assistants cheated many VOTERS,
while hundreds of ballots were not count
ed because of blots or errors In marking
i,he Inspectors and other officers were ap-
pointed to cheat the Union Republicans,
and they faithfully carried out their I'M
hallowed bargain. The Every Evening
must know this, or it would not so stren-
uously object to opening the ballot boxes
It's conduct verjfes the old adage' mo
rogue Yer felt the halter draw with good
ordnion of the law" If the Union he
publicans acted dishonorably let them De
shown up, and their vices be Reproduced by
law loving citizens. As bad as their con-
duct may have been, it pales in compar-
ison with the acts of the Democrats as
shown by the exposure it has made in Or
der to have justice done its own partisans'
CONSIDERABLE has been said pro Gnu
cor in regard to doing away with our vol
unteer fire department and substituting
in its place, paid fire department, The
subject has been agitated moro than once
by our citizens during the past ten years
The majority of the firemen of our city
say they are not in favor of paid depart
ment, and as long as they don't grumble,
who have to endure the hardships, why
should others, who only respond to an
alarm of fire to look on. We have one OF
the very best fire departments In the coun'
try barring none. Our fire laddles are
seif sacrificing and prompt to respond to
an alarm of fire. A gentleman said to the
writer on visiting Philadelphia yesterday
and witnessing the progress of the big lire
that the tiremen did not work like our
volunteer fremen. They handled the hose
as if it burnt their hands and they walked
around with cigars in their mouths a'
Ieisurely as you please He said we have
better fire department right here in the

We hope the members OF the ConstitH-
tional Convention will make provision to
Iunish dishonest assessors, dishonest tax
collectors, dishonest registrars, dishonest
inspectors and members of the returning
boards The scoundrelism which has been
practiced by the above functionarie5 Is
quite as bad, if not worse, than the buying
of votes We hope they will not allow
their repugnance against one crime, to
blind them to the enormity of the Others.
The influencing OF Il few voters, by any
means, is nothing like as bad MS the DELHI
erate altering of figures on the tally list,
IN order to count out one candidate and
count in another. or the deliberate throw
ing out of entire districts in order to in
duct into Office candidates who did not re-
ceive majority Of the votes polcd. The
Dickey trick and the outrage in Lent
county are Of too recent date to need
a repetition to bring the matter to the
attention of our readers. Constituted as
the Legislature is today, one third OF the
members holding their seats through fraud
every act thus far passed should be deelar-
