Whom the Gods Would Destroy
Thar First MaEa Mad ~

They First Make Mad"
The erstwhile humorous historian OF
Madison county, Judge French Upton,
alias 8 Democrat, alias a Republican
for what's in it, has torn his shirt COM
pletely off this week and reveals
skeleton which he was masking for years
as . Democrat for Revenue Only. And
that's what's the matter with Upton.
Tip is as mad as a bull because We
Haunted his dirty political linen in
his face, and instead of getting him
self out of the mud he founders
deeper in the mire, by telling Of his
ten years duplicity whilst posing as
an exponent Of Democracy. And as
for his not holding on 10 the Rodes
Revenue tsat, 1t was because there was
nothing to do in revenue circles! But
this is well understood by the public,
50 the Judge need not divert attention
from the central point, and the one on
which he tore his shirt. that is. his
cowardly assassination of his old party.
Editor of a Democratic paper, when not
sucking a revenue teat as Democratic
sppointee, he registers as a Democrat,
but knifes that party in the dark. At
last, tired OF his own deceit, he an
nounced on registration day, 1897,
'Put me down as Republican, I've
been voting that way and might as
well register that way" No criticism
of your vote, no sorrow over your loss,
We repeat, the public, yes the citizens
OF Madison county of all parties, held
their noses at such an unblushing con-
fessiOn of party treacherY. Your brazen
confession was uttered from knowledge
of your already waning prestige
among your neighbOrs, as evidenced
by the wholesale loss Of subscribers to
your paper in 81; your old associates
had fallen away from your like autumn
leaves, and with one despairing hope,
mayhsp with assurance dOubly sure
that you would hold that revenue job

made you as prominent as you are, and
not until then, did you cease TO bestow
upon it the cursed Kiss of Judas, and
publicly take your place where you be-
lOnged.
And you defy rs to name a single
Republican who ventured such Opin-
ion." We do not ask his consent to
give his name, because he was man
enough TO say it and he is man enough

WE asked Genl. Taylor to tell what
ex-Congressman John Henry Wilson
said about the Goebel Bill, but the
brainy Attorney General first said it
was a lie, and then asserted that it
didn't matter what John Henry said.
What the latter said was about this:
"After my experience in my last race
fol. my own party nomination for Cir
cult Judge, l am convinced that the
Goebel Bill is not the worst thing in
the world'-probably meaning that he
had been robbed of victory by men in
his own party.
At Pineville last week Hon. John d.
White, so the Pineville Courier prints,
"claims to be leading in the race, and
seems 20 be particularly thankful for
the Goebel election bill, which will in

eral Taylor will have difficulty in con-
vincing Democrats that the Goebel Bill
is an unmixed evil.

EleCtropOise.

The Electropoise does not, however,
confine its cures along any particular
line. 1t cures by removing the cause,
causing the system to absorb Oxygen,
purifying the blood, and building up
the system.
Dear Sirs: The goitre has entirely
disappeared from Mrs. Wilson's neck,
and she is the proudest and most CRATE
full woman in the world. The Electro
pOise has accomplished what the ply
sicians and medicines could not. More
than seven years ago she was told that
she could never be cured. The Elec-
tropoise contradicted the opinion Of
learned doctors, has removed the
swelling, and she is entirely well.
l have under my observation an
other case of goitre that is being rapidly
cured. 1t is my only doctor, and use
it in my family for all ailments.
