From Carthage, (Mo.). Press

A Missouri Democratic con-
gressman has been telling them at
Washington that the Democratic
party of this state is going to re-
peal the Nesbit law. But he will
not deceive anybody by such twad-
die as that. The Democratic par
ty will never voluntarily let go OF
the Nesbit law. The only way
that nefarious measure will ever be
COTTON rid Of will be by defeating
Democracy and ousting the cor.
rupt ring which has SO long beer
entrenched In power in this state.

THE ICE MAN.

THE ICE MAN.
This cold weather is cutting
down the profits Of the Ice Man
every day. Ice is plentiful and
many people are harvesting their
own crop. This will be nice for
the fortunate ones next summer
but theIce Man will pay the freight.
The sweltcring heat Of last summer
made a name and out Of respect to
it, memory the Ice Man suffers.
CHARITY.
Many genuine objects of charity
are to be met every day and some-
times II is a bore but II Is better to
help the unworthy ones than to
neglect one worthy one. Sickness
causes much suffering and II would
be well for all to see that no one
suffers. II you can't give your
time give n portion OF your means.
A good deed is always rewarded.
sMIL.s.
An old man was walking down
the street with n. friend and they
met a young man who spoke
pleasantly to them. The old man
said to his friend, "That young
man has n smile and pleasant
word for me whenever he meets
me and not only for me but every
one. He Is always busy and
know life Is not all sunshine for
him yet there Is always smile on
his face" Hang your sunshine on
the outside. II you have cares
have them where no one can know
them save yourself. Don't be n
parasite ON humanity's better ma
turc.

lent,css grip pinching all who

HOW TO GET TRADE.

NEW YORK REPUBLICANS.
Little interest Manifested Over the
Nominations.

NOMINATIONS
Saratoga, N. Y, Sept. 22.--lf it were
not for some difficulties over the NOM
ination for lieutenant governor and
less serious ones for the nomination
for secretary of state, there would be
positive apathy here this morning, the
day preceding the state Republican
convention. Many delegates are IN
the ground.
There Is little or no change in the
situation concerning the ticket The
general opinion this morning was that
by the nominations to be made there
would be but one candidate for lieu
tenant governor, George R. Sheldon.
Senator Platt, speaking of the lieu
tent goyernorship today, says:
"Mr. Woodruff will not be the can
didate of the convention. 1t would
be poor policy, indeed, to get the PEG.
pie into the belief that one person can
conflscate the Office for an indefinite
period
MT, Woodruff has been treated in
an unprecedsntedly generous way by
his party and | believe the present
furry is by ill-advised friends of his. "
Who, in your judgment, will be the
candidate?"
81 presume Mr.. Sheldon. l find
that the delegates are mainly for
him"
When shown Mr.. Platt's statement,
Lieutenant Governor Woodruff said
that he had announced repeatedly
that he was not candidate and he
now declared that he would not ac-
cept the nomination under any cir
cumstances.

HINDSoNYILIE, 5. G., Sept 2, 1896.
Mr.. A. B. GIRARDEAU, Savannah Ga.
DEAR SIR:-some years ago operated a float
ing saw-mill on the Savannah River. My base of
operations was being constantly changed, and my
hands were always exposed to the worst malarial
influences. / employed over one hundred hands,
and the work was conducted as much in water as
out of it. For this reason, in August and Septem-
Der there was great loss of time and business, on
account of sickness among the workers.
My attention was then called to Johnson's Chill
and Fever Tonic, and I determined to give the
medicine a trial. | procured It, and those who
were sick put on this treatment, and those who
were feeling badly were at once given the Tonic.
In short time every one ofthe one hundred hands
was well and reported for duty; and from that time
on used nothing else but Johnsons Tonic, and
never had another case of fever.
Yours very truly,
j. r. LASSITER.
