When consulting physicians disagree
an intelligent patient will at once dis
charge one or both. Under no cir
cumstances will he risk taking the
medicine of both. The doctors who
have been called on by the Republi-
cans of this State have disagreed. The
plain and uucontrovertible fact stated
in the Democratic State platform to
the effect that the States institutions
had been kept up in good style, all the
expenses paid and the debt nearly ex-
tinguished and at the same time taxes
greatly reduced, produced all sorts of
diseases among the hungry horde of
Republican place hunters, and doctors
called in. DR.. Dick Dalton promptly
decided that the Democrats had not in
reality reduced taxes; that while they
had reduced the rate they had de-
ceived the people by raising valua-
tions, and he would not so much as
even hint that the property of the
State had had any increase In valua-
tion, and attempted to prove his
diagnosis by an array of figures, Then
DR.. B. F. Russell takes the opposite
view and asserts that there has been
very little increase in taxable wealth
under Democratic administration, and
and he also presents figures in support
OF his views. He claims to quote from
the State Auditors reports. We have
not examined to see whether or not be
quotes correctly, but taking it for
granted that he has, be shows that
there was very large increase in
assessed valuations from 1868 to 1871,
and gives his party the credit for it,
without taking into account the de.
pressed conditions on account of the
war in 1868. He then shows the com
paratively small increase in valuations
since 1871, under Democratic rule
and the promise is implied, In hit
article, that il his party wins this year
assessed valuations will have an i'm
mediate big boom.
As between these two doctors WI
are inclined to the opinion that DR.
Russell is the ranking physician ant
his diagnosis is entitled to the NOR,
credit. Democrats are noted for ,
policy of economy in administration
OF affairs and for taxes as low as cir
cumstances will permit; while Repub
licans are just as noted for big take
and extravagant expenditures, MAXIM
big show, putting on airs and apiu
the manners of aristocratic govern
ments. 1t is therefore only reasonabl
to conclude that il Republicans carr
the State this fall they will adopt DR.
} Russell's plan of increasing valuation
and raising big taxes to be spent i
riotous living, as was done during tn
period OF 1868 to 1S71.-Jeferson

FOLKS WHO READ THE ADS"


New York Commercial.
One of the editorial staff of the New

pressed recently by some remarks of a
more or less prominent and very prosper
Gus attorney, whose Brooklyn home is
about half hours ride from his Man

half hour in reading the newspapers. You

That lawyers experience and habit in
the matter of newspaper reading are pos
sbly not an isolated exception among in
-telligent men of the buster sort. There is
so much in the daily newspapers nowadays
that few comparatively, outside of the lei
sure classes. can afford the time TO keep up
with IL all, or a 1.-THE or IL even. And after
all, skilful reader can Gull about all he
requires from a perusal OF the headlines
and general ''skinning' of the news and
other columns. To that sort shift to the
advertisements must often prove a refresh
ing, a delightful change.
They are, for the most part. strikingly
original in these days. The most tired-out
among US can. not infrequently, get a
brand-new thought out OF them. They are
