"Paramount Issue -

So far, in this coming campaign, we
have heard very little about the par
amount issue,n which the democratic
party generally inaugurates. What
it will be this time no one knows for
a certainty. The money question has
been relegated to the rear, and the
cry of free silver is faint indeed. They
have very little to say on imperial
ISM the biggest bogy-boo that was
ever preached by any party. 1t
would not be good policy for them to
again attack our right to our recent
possessions. for they surely know that
the American people would not listen
to such argument at this time. The
tariff was not mentioned in the New
York platform; therefore, they must
be satisfied with our present rates OF
revenue. But in spite OF all this they
undoubtedly will come before the peo-
pie pushing TO the front some para
mount ISSUE which the republican
party must successfully meet.
Considering the present prosperity
of our country universal peace and
happiness every where, work for everv
one who seeks it, vast developments
in every state--the one great thing for
the republicans to do is to keep this
unprecedented prosperity continually
with us. Issues do not make pros
porous country unless they are good
ones and fully in force. Every one
knows for what the republican party
stands. 1t does not ask the people
to consider every four years a new
and untried issue. Its motto 10 ''pro-
lection to American industries" which
doctrine has been weighed in the bal
ance and found not wanting. This
principal of protection is the corner
stone Of the republican party, and
upon 1t rests the prosperity and pro-
gress of this great .countrys Take it
from the foundation OF this govern
ment and the whole fabric is weaken
ed beyond recognition.
Progress and protection are the
watchwords OF the republican party,
Keep the mills running at full speed
and let every man have work, then the

When the SAP Rises

Weak lungs should be careful. Coughs
and colds are dangerous then. One
Minute Cough Cure cures coughs and
colds and gives strength to the lungs.

For Weak, Lanauid People.

Weak, sickly people often remark
'if | could only get something that
would nourish me and give me
strength" they do not know why,
but the food they eat is of no benefit
to them, they gain no flesh and feel
no stronger. The fact is the stomach
is too weak to perform its work, and
the little appetite they once had is
soon gone. The blood becomes more
thin and watery, bringing on faint
sick spells with loss of memory and
ambition. There is remedy for all
this that acts in the right way. 1t is
called DR.. Gums Blood and Nerve
Tonic, and is sold by all druggists for
75c. per box, or boxes for 81. 1t
turns the food you eat into rich, red
blood, making flesh and strength,
creating an appetite because the sys-
tenn demands sustenance. For sale

The County court in changing the
voting precincts IN Hedgesvilie dis
triet. made blunder the effects of
which only time can tell. Why that
honorable body saw fit to make 25 or
30 citizens of the suburbs of Hedges
vile go five or six miles to vote when
they could have voted at home, would
be great MYSTERY were it not for
political reasons. But to satisfy
several ardent democrats who signed
a petition to change one or two vot-
ing precincts, 1.-THE court smilinely
gave its consent.

Hon. Alexander Parks statement
that his bill for the refunding of tho
Berkeley county bonds failed because
a republican county court refused to
put it in operation, must have been
made in burst OF enthusiasm, when
he allowed the wings of his magma

ment. Did he know that he was ac-
cusing one of Berkeley county's most
honored citizens of grave crime IL
his charge be true. II false. the hon
arabic gentleman owes our old and
revered friend, G. w. Doll, an abjest
apology. Will it be forthcomingi
Mr.. Doll, the democratic county clerk,
was appointed commissioner by that
court. He made an honest effort to
carry out this work; advertising in
the leading city papers. This Is a
matter of record, and the honorable
gentleman in his calmer moments
never would have made a statement
which the facts prove was totally I'M
warranted.

The Berkeley Democrat seems 10 De
very bitter in its attack upon Mr.. Clio
han, but if the editor of that paper
will stop for minute and consider
the standing Of the worthy postmas
ter in this community for truthfulness
we think he would feel like repentlne
of his distastful articles. Who be-
lieves that respectable gentleman OF
high standing would deliberately try
to mislead any one by trickery or..talse'
hood? We do not think there IS q
democrat or republican of any promi-
nence in this city who would he guilty
of maliciously stealing an election
Mr.. Clohan mentioned no name IN
his speech. nor did he accuse the DEM
ocrats of being void of Intelligence.
He merely stated the facts as he saw
them, and they have not been success
fully contradicted.
Those bonds did not refund as was
expected by our fellow democrats.
Ard il was not ON account OF repub-
lican County court either. Turn to
minute book of 1891, page III, and IL
will be clearly seen where Q. ". Doll,
then CLERK of the County court, and
George w. Feidt, two respectable and
cultivated gentlemen, were appoir TED
n committee to sell those bonds. After
advertising them in the county papers,
and several New York Papers, they
never recaived one single bid. The
time mentioned in the bonds, was too
short for wealthy men to invest at a
small per cent. But, after being re-
vised by republican citizen. giving q
longer term of years, it was no irou-
BILE to sell the bonds.
Now, who can dispute this?
And as for this,city being governed
better by democrats than republicans,
we would say that there was never
much of fight put up bv the latter
until ten years ago. But with united
effort the city government was taken
from the democrats by the republicans
aud those who are not prejudiced
know which party had given the ses
administration. In the language OF
Mr.. Clohan, "The republican party
knows how to do Things.

Mi-o-na Makes Thin People Fat
The w. r. Smith Co. Will Re-
turn Money II IL Falls.

Every one needs real nourishment I:
then comes good health, strength and
endurance. Without it, you waste
away. Nearly every one eats food
enough to furnish the necessary nour-
ishment for the perfect support of
life, but the food is not assimilated
and there follows indigestion, weak
ness and emaciation.
A few days use of Mi-o.na, the won
derful Hesh-forming food, will demon
strate its power to furnish real nour.
ishment and restore health. Mio.na
mingles with the food you eat, aids
assimilation, tones up and strength
ems the digestive organs and puts the
whole system into proper physical con-
.dition.
BY its use, the elements needed to
increase flesh are assimilated from
the daily food and each week will
show a noticeable gain in weight.
The w. II. Smith Co. knows person.
ally of many cases of long standing
stomach troubles, some of them very
bad, that we're entirely cured with
Mi-o-na. The thin and scrawny have
used this preparation and by its aid
have gained real nourishmept. The
W. r. Smith Co. feels that they can
honestly recommend Mi.o-na and as
an evidence of their faith in the
merit of the article, offers to sell II
with the distinct understanding that
the money is to be returned in every
case where it fails to do all that il
