Gov. Burleigh and a Soldiers Orphan.

F. NJ Billings Post, G. A. r., of Monroe,
has adopted the following resolutions, and
voted that they be sent to The Republican
Journal for publication:
We, the members of f. NJ. Billings Post,
No. "A, Dept. of Maine, G. A. R., wish to
add our testimony to the good work Hon. E.
c. Burleigh has done for veterans daugh-
ter in our town. Washington Patterson, a
soldier in the 10th Maine, died some time
ago, leaving daughter helpless from rheu-
matism. She is an orphan, her mother hav-
ing been dead for some time, and would have
had to be helped by charity had not Mr..
Burleigh become interested in her case. At
the request of the post Mr. F. l.. Palmer
wrote to Mr. Burleigh and stated the case to
him and soon she was allowed SD per
month She is at the present time helpless
and has to haye the constant care of others !;
and we, as veterans of the Civil War, wish
to let the veterans of the district know that
the circular issued by the Calvin Barton
Union Veterans Union of Gardiner is not
supported by facts: therefore, be it
Resolved, That f. NJ. Billings Post, No.
IA, Dept. of Maine, G. A. r., extend their
sincere thanks to Hon. f. c. Burleigh,
Member of Congress from the Third dis
trict, for the successful efforts in securing
a pension for Miss Lena Patterson, SOL
diers orphan of this town, and that we as a
post of the Grand Army condemn the circu-
lar sent out by the Calvin Barton Union
Veterans Union of Gardiner as unjust and
not sustained by facts.

The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure in
all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is the only positive cure known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby
destroying the foundation Of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by building
up the constitution and assisting nature in

veterans, their widows or orphans, is
not only groundless but silly. Silly, be-
cause all who know the Congressman
from the Third district, personally or by
reputation, would promptly resent such
an imputation. Mr.. Burleigh does not
herald his good deeds; but the Grand
Army Posts, moved by these unjust at
tacks, are speaking for him. Resolu-
lions adopted by E. NJ. Billings Post of
Monroe are printed in another column.

IN THE FRUIT SEASON

The principal reason for bowel troubles
is that the liver is out of order and it takes
very little to cause general upset. Avoid
biliousness, regulate your bowels and fruit

been found than the True "L. F." AtwOOd's
Bitters, and we can recommend it fully for
dyspepsia, biliOusness and constipation.

The Chinese government through Ii

marks: 'The Democrats of North
Carolina profess to stand for the doc
5rine that the Constitution follows the
flag. Has i followed the flag into their
own state, SO far as the fourteenth and
fifteenth amendments are concened."
This query is pertinent from the fact
that no one pretends that the constitu-
tional amendment recently adopted in
North Carolina has for it's object any,
thing else than the Acknowledgement of
nearly all the negroes in the State with
out the disfranchisement of any of the

Lewiston gave up entertaining during
Old Home Week because the city gov
erument would not appropriate $1,000
for that purpose. The people of Bel
fast did not ask for an appropriation
but went into their own pockets and
promptly subscribed a sum proportion
ally much greater than that asked for
i'll Lewiston, and it was used to the best
advantage by the local Old Home Week
Association. The program for the week
was carried without hitch, and the
celebration as whole far exceeded ex-
pectations. Belfast may well feel
proud of the success which attended
her efforts Oh this occasion.
Boutwell, has turned his back on the
party which elected him Governor of
Massachusetts, to the United States
Senate, and made him Secretary of the
Treasury, and announced his intention
of supporting Bryan. There were in
the days of his holding these offices not
a few who believed that he was honored
beyond his deserts, and his subsequent
career justifes that opinion. When
the services of ADLER men were called
for in the public stations to which he
aspired he became the open enemy of
the party which had favored him with
honors and emoluments. ''To such base
uses does he come at last.
