HuSTING WAR; S
CRITIC TO Be LOYAL

Senator Husting, Wisconsin, writes
a lesson in patriotism to a German
American constituent, e. John Wem'
hoff, in Burlington, Wis. The sen
ator says:
81 believe your reasons and your
conclusions are from the German, not
the American, standpoint.
Germany is now an enemy OF the
United States, which means that she
is your enemy, my enemy, our enemy.
"When the status of our relations
with foreign country is once fixed
as that of war, then the time for ar
gument has ceased, and there is no
longer any room for controversy be-
tween citizens upon that question.
The questitn for the time being-that
is to say, during the tendency OF the
warts a closed and not an open one,
and for the sake of your peace OF
mind, as well as in justice to your
self as an American citizen who does
not desire his loyalty questioned or
to have his honorable reputation per-
manently impaired, you should re-
spect, obey and support the mandate
of your country in the spirit of true
and devoted American citizenship"

BACKACHE

In spite of the best care one takes
Of oneself, any part of the human ma
chine is liable to become out of order:
The most important organs are the,
stomach, heart and kidneys.
The kidneys are the scavengers and
they work day and night in separating
the poisons from the blood. 1t is only
reasonable to believe that they are liable
to arrangement. Their signals of dis
tress, however, are easily recognized and
include such symptoms as backache, de-
pressions, drowsiness, irritability, head
aches, dizziness, rheumatic twinges,
dropsy, gout.

kidneys to their normal state of

Congratulates Col. D. A. Dickert.

Pomaria, S. c., April 23, 1871.
Dear Mr.. Editor:
would like through your columns
to congratulate Col. Dickert on the
niece he wrote about the war. Hur-
rah for Col. Dickert! He is talking
sense of which he has more OF the
right kind than half the men We
make ourselves fools about sending
to congress. and l want to say that
any government which will ship TO
any other nation its food stufts to
such an extent as to bring about
condition as now exists is wanting ID
good common horse sense. Mans
first duty is to himself and family
then his God and his country. No
one man or handful of men are
competent to shape the destiny OF
nation. Neither DO a pitiful few IN
mass meeting represent the sentiment
of the people. But it has ever been
80. that a few want to boss. Guess
it will always be so. Nevertheless
we are growing tired.
Respectfully,
]. S. ]. SUBER,
P. S.-Would like to ask what IS TO
become of the American pets, the
negro. WE'LL he be put to the front
or lett home to farm and take care
of the women and children while our
champion war horses holler, go, my
son, and fight for your country.
ooh! my God, why from silent eartn
Didst Thou awake and curse us into
birth,
Push us into being an image OF Inee
And animate clod with misery.
