FRIDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1894.

MR. BROOKSHIRE will please take notice that notwithstanding the Gor-man-Brice tariff is in full operation the market reports show a decline in both wheat and corn. The wonderful "markets of the world" do not seem to "open" to our farm produce.

IT will be noted that in all the announcements of the resumption of manufacturing- establishments over which Democratic newspapers now erow so lustily not one of them mentions the reduction in wages of the operatives. In nearly every instance wages have been reduced from 15 to :i0 percent, but this fact is carefully suppressed.

VOTERS should remember it is only about forty-eight days until the November election. The law requires sixty days' residence in the township and thirty days' residence in the precinct in which the voter offers his'-yote. It is. therefore, too late to change townships without losing the right to vote, and but little time remains to change precincts. Voters who aesire the right to vote must observe the law or they cannot vote.

THEV are going to have civil service reform in New York with a vengeance if the work of the constitutional convention is ratified by the people as in all probability it will be. The proposed constitution provides that no appointments to office shall be made in any civil division of the State, meaning cities, towns, villages, counties and townships, without a competitive examination. However politicians may dislike it civil service reform is inevitable and will finally be as universal as the spoils system was a few years ago.

MR. BROOKSIIIKK, in his printed speech which is being scattered over the district, says: "According to the most reliable statistics the average laborer in our manufactories turns out a product annually valued at SI,880, and for making this product he receives in wages 8347. In Great Britain he turns out an annual product valued at 5?T!)0 and receives in wages for manufacturing the same $204."

Mr. Brookshire's argument amounts to this, that the man who receives 8204 a year for his labor is better paid than the man who receives $347.

IF Senator Hill should "by chance succeed in being elected Governor of New York no other name will be mentioned in the Democratic convention in 1890 for the Presidency. Should the Senator be the nominee it is safe to say that there will be an anti-income tax plank in the platform, and all the little cuckoo newspapers which have so vociferously yelled for an income tax will deny that such a tax ever was a cardinal principle of the Democratic party, and will cliameleon-like change their colors and turn-their backs on their own record.

MR. BROOKSIHRE in his speecli last Saturday said: "As your representajj tive in Congress you know that I voted against the tax on sugar." And he might, with equal truth have added that he also voted fur the tax on sugar which lie did all in the same day. And the people will be apt to remember that his voted (tya'atxl taxing sugar was a shot in the air, while his vote Jtrr taxing sugar was effectual in fastening taxed sugar on the people. The good voters of this Congressional district will know how to estimate the conduct of one who tenderly kisses them on one cheek and at the same time strikes them a stinging blow on the other.

IN his speech in the Senate against the Gorman tariff law Senator Hill said: "A tax the imposition of which will drive New York, New Jersey and Connecticut ^into the Republican column, there to remain permanently a tax the individual feature of which has not been recommended by any Democratic President or Secretary of the Treasury or Commissioner of Inter nal revenue but a tax suggested, advocated and persistently pushed by a majority which is temporarily "in the saddle" in this Congress, and is driving the Democratic party with reckless and headlong speed into the abyss of of political ruin." The conditions have not changed since the Senator uttered these remarks except that Vermont and Maine have given emphasis to the truthful prediction. All the indications point to the fact that the Democratic party is being driven with reckless and headlong speed _into the abyss of political ruin.

THE DIFFKREXCE.

The Democratic party says to go to other nations to buy things. The Republican party says buy things at home.

The Democratic party says foreign commerce is what makes a nation prosperous.

The Republican party says it is home production that makes a people prosperous.

The Democratic policy builds up foreign factories and gives employment to foreign labor.

The Republican party builds up factories at home and gives employment to our own people.

The Democratic party depresses business at home and makes it lively abroad.

The Republican policy makes times lively at home. The Democratic policy feeds foreign workmen.

The Republican policy feeds workmen at home. The Democratic policy makes wages low.

The Republican policy makes wages high. Democracy makes soup houses for the support of idle workmen.

The Republican party makes work for idle workmen and enables them to live in independence.

The Democratic party seeks to increase foreign importations. The Republican party seeks to increase home production.

SINGE the Democratic party came into power have wages been advanced or lowered:'

A SOMEWHAT curious fact is shown by the September report of the statistician's department of the Agricultural Bureau at Washington, that is, the rapid increase of the population of towns and cities in the United States as compared with the increase of country population. For illustration, the urban, or city and town population has increased, since 1800, a fraction over 199 per cent while the agricultural, or country population has increased, in the same time, only a fraction over 57 per cent. In many of the States a greater disparity even than this is shown. The statistics are given for the Southern States only, but the writer of the report thinks the census reports, for the Northern States, when they are examined, will show even a greater disparity than is found at the South. No doubt this peculiar condition grows out of the rapidly increasing wealth of the country. As individuals become wealthy they retire from agricultural pursuits and seek homes in the towns and cities. Another cause is the rapid development of manufacturing pursuits, and the gradual decrease of demand for farm labor on account of agricultural machinery.

Daa'id B. Hii.e, who has been nominated by the Democracy of New York as their candidate for Governor, made a speech in the Senate in opposition to the Gorman tariff bill. He not only spoke against it but he voted against it. He was bitterly opposed to the income tax feature of the bill and in the course of his speech said:

If this is true Democracy, I want none of it. If this is the best leadership which we can present in this great crisis, I for one must decline to follow it. I prefer to stay with Jefferson, Jackson and Tilden in opposition to all income taxes and direct Federal taxation, but in favor of a revenue for Federal purposes and direct taxation for State purposes. I repudiate the spurious Democracy of these modern apostles and prophets, who are part Mugwump. part Populist and the least part Democrat, who seek to lead us astray after false gods, false theories and false methods.

It was on account of this speech that the Anjms-NcwN read him out of the Democratic party. The little cuckoo could not brook the idea of being classed with the "spurious Democracy," those who are "part Mugwump, part Populist, and the least part Democrat" and who are accused of wandering "after false gods, false theories and false methods."

CONGRESSMAN BKOOKSIIIUE in his speech which he is delivering all over this district, both orally and in print, says that when Cleveland went out of oilice in 1889 he left a surplus of §104,000,000 in the treasury, and that four years later when he was again elected he found a deficit of §30.000,000. If Mir Brookshire had turned to the official records he would have found that Cleveland kept the surplus in favorite banks. Harrison called in this surplus and paid off interest bearing bonds to the amount of §259,074,000, which reduced the interest annually the sum of §11,084,409, makiHg a total saving of nearly §300.000,000. Instead of a deficit Harrison turned over to Cleveland in 1893, a surplus of §124,000,000. In one year and a half of Cleveland's administration the gold reserve has been reduced to §54,000,000 and the Government has issued bonds which bear interest to the amount of §50,000,000. When Harrison went out of office the interest bearing debt was §585,029,340. Now after a year and a half of Grover Cleveland the interest bearing debt is §035,041,890, an increase of §50,012,560. Verily the Democratic party is a debt making party and not a debt paying party.

UEXEFICIAIj TO ENGLAM). Mr. Wilson, the author of the Wilson bill, and a free trader, is visiting in England. He no sooner landed on British soil than a public dinner was tendered him in the London by the Chamber of Commerce, which came off on the 20th inst. The Chairman of the meeting in introducing Mr. Wilson made a very indiscreet speech for this side of the great waters. Here is what he said respecting the late tariff legislation by the Democratic party, in this country:

Benefits had already been experienced in England. Furnaces had been re-opened in Wales and Yorkshire, and an impetus had been given to the textile industries.

Mr. Wilson must have listened to the words with some degree of pain, if he is a true American for he must know now, if he never knew before, that he and his party have been legislating for the benefit of English manufacturers and against the manufacturers of Irs own country. He knows now that he has been engaged in closing furnaces in his own 'country and opening them in Wales and Yorkshire. lie has been making work for English workmen and taking it away from his own countrymen and sending them to public soup houses to keep soul and body together. After this speech by the Chairman, Mr. Wilson should have returned to America at once and publicly confessed that lie had been engaged in the foolish and unpatriotic business of ruining the industries of his own country and building up the industries of a rival nation. The McKinley bill closed factories in England and opened them in our own country. The McKinley bill gaye employment to American workmen. The Gorman-Brice tariff takes work away from American workmen and gives it to British workmen. It is meet that Mr. Wilson should be greeted with applause in England, for sure enough, as the Chairman who presided at the banquet said, he has opened the furnaces of Wales and Yorkshire. This no doubt would be a great thing if he had not at the same time closed the furnaces of Pennsylvania and New Jersey. But who will greet Mr. Wilson when he comes home except those who wish to see furnaces closed in America and opened in England.

CONGRESSMAN BROOKSHIRE'S mail is now burdened with official envelopes addressed to him from the Pension Bureau at Washington. The pension claimants in Indiana are receiving special attention, and will continue to be thus favored over all other claimants until election day. Two election bureaus have been established in the Pension Bureau to carry out this politcal scheme, one for the benefit of the Democratic party in Indiana and the other for the benefit of the same party in Illinois. In the State of Indiana it is stated that there are abo~.it 1(5,000 claimants. The eleven Democratic Congressmen and the two Democratic Senators licve taken the names and postoflice addresses of all the claimants from Indiana who have cases pending in the Pension Bureau. These they are calling at the rate of 200 or 300 per day. Each Congressman from this State is calling up cases expressly on slips signed by himself. There were 126 restorations for the week ending Sept. 15. James Milton Seller,

Mr. Brookshire's private pension secretary, is doing more pension business than both the pension claim agent firms in this city combined. From now till November will be his busy season. After that time he will have nothing to do. The pension claimants are in great luck. Boys, now is the time to get in youi work. The time is short.

WE can make goods cheaper in this country than anywhere else on earth and we intend to do it. American genius and industry and 'Snap don't care a tig for all the pauper labor of Europe or anywhere else.—Argus-Nairn.

The gymnastics of the Anjw-Neinx beats a monkey on a pole. It has not been two years since every Democratic paper in America said we could not make tin-plate in this country, that we did not have the "genius" and the "skill." But they all lived to see the industry planted by McKinley grow to be one of our greatest labor furnishing institutions and on account of it they see the steadj- decline in the price of tinware. Where they will jump to next, no one can tell, but we predict now, that in less than a year the Dem ocratic press will be claiming that it never was a free trade party, and that all it ever asked was that we be allowed to import a few raw materials.

THE Republicans are being chased so rapidly from every position they take that the campaign is beginning to assume the appearance of a game of pussy-wants a corner. Indluiutpulls Sentinel.

Yes, it is a game of pussy-wants-a-corner and there has not been a single Northern State in the Union in any election, city, county or State, iu the ast year, able to secure a corner. Yes, Republicans are being "driven"—but into all the corners.

LET every voter remember that the Republican party put sugar on the free list and that the Democratic party has taken it off the free list and put a tariff of 40 per cent on it. But a tariff on sugar is not distasteful to British manufacturers.

DELAXA E. WILIJAMSOX. Hon. Delana E. Williamson is now posing as a Democrat and asking the support of that party in an effort to be sent as a representative to the State Legislature from Putnam, Clay and Montgomery counties. In early life Mr. Williamson posed as a Democrat and was sent to the State legislature as a representative from Clay county. He served one term in that capacity, and when he asked people of Clay to honor him with a second term, they defeated him by an overwhelming majority. After this he sought recognition from his party at various times but always failed, and in 1S61 he abandoned his Democracy. The Republican party being in the ascendancy in the State he identified himself with that party, and immediately asked for, and received from them, the office of Attorney-General of the State. He held this office at the hands of the Republicans for three consecutive terms, and was loud in his profession of loyalty to the Republican party, and severe in his denunciation of Democrats, advising the people to "bury the dead ones face down, in order that they might scratch downward instead of upwards." After his three terms as Attorney-General, he sought the nomination for Congress and was defeated by John llanna. In 1888 he sought, and received the Republican nomination for Judge of the 13th Judicial circuit, and was defeated by Judge McGregor in the election. This seemed to completely sour him and in the summer of 1S92 he wrote a letter to his bosom friend, George Knight, of Brazil, denouncing his thirty years of allegiance to Republican principles. He now claims he never was a Republican at heart, but has always been a Democrat—which is equivalent to saying that for thirty years he was an arrant hypocrite and abusing the confidence of the people. When in 1S01 the Republicans were in power and he thought his political future best with them, he abandoned liis former friends and came to the Republicans and immediately asks for office. In 1892, when he believed the Democratic star in the ascendant, he abandons his thirty years of rabid Republicanism, turns over to the Democracy and in two years has his plate as usual up for office. Can the Democracy of the district swallow this mess of 113'pocrisy and inconsistency? He is now about 74 years old, and somewhat in his dotage, and this may account why he is willing to accept the nomination for such an office at his advanced time of life.

HILI'. will be elected by a big major-ity.—AnjUK-Kcwa. If he is elected it will probably be for the reason that in the Senate on the 3d of July in his speech against the Gorman bill, on account of which the Anjus-Ncws and other cuckoo papers denounced him as a "traitor" and read him out of the Democratic party, he said:

We promised the people bread and we are giving them a stone. We promised them free raw materials and we are giving them taxed coal, taxed iron ore. taxed coke, taxed lead ore, and other taxed raw materials. They expected free sugar, but we are taxing not only that article, but other necessaries of life. We do not need both a sugar tax and an income tax, but it seems that considerations other than those of revenues to the Treasury have dictated and retained both. The provisions of the bill are not consistent they violate well-established Democratic principles they are unfair in their discriminations, and their enactment will place the party in a false and untenable position.

THE Anjus-Ncws thinks THE JOURNAL is unfair in criticising the vote of Congressman Brookshire on the sugar bill. THE JOURNAL'S criticism was that Mr. Brookshire voted for free sugar which vote was a shot in the air. On the same day he voted to place a tax of 40nper cent, on sugar, which vote struck the bull's eye and brought his game. There is nothing unfair in stating facts.

DID not Chairman Wilson in the last speech he made on the door of the House say that the Gorman bill put §40,000,000 into the pockets of the sugar trust?

Said Nature to Physic what pity that we Who ought to be friends should so 9eldom

agree.

My strength is exhausted, my energy doad. From the volley of blue pills discharged at my Load."

It is not strange that Nature should remonstrate against the use of those griping and drastic blue marbles, with which old fogies of medicine persist in dosing their patients. They are not only revolting in appearance, but of times actually injurious in their affects. Yet Nature needs some help in overcoming obstinate dyspepsia, constipation and liver troubles, and fortunately she has a very valuable assistant in Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, which, small &s bird seed and sugarcoated, never fail to act effectively though soothingly.

OH! FOR STRONG NERVES.

WHAT DOES THAT DREADFDL FEELING MEAN?

Oan It Be That Insanity is Staring: Me in the face.

That Tired ami Kxlinustcil Keeling .Means More Than You Tliink.

The nervous system is fearfully delicate. It is easily deranged, and when it is, beware. The symptoms are debility, tired feeling, inability for much work, trembling, anxiety, depression of mind, nervousness and often sleeplessness and dull feeling head in the morning.

These lead to nervous prostation, paralysis or insanity. You run a terrible risk in neglecting any of these symptoms. You can be cured nine. If you neglect yourself you soon will become a hopeless wreck, as Mrs. W.A. Tinkliam, of Stowe, Vt., did. She writes the following about herself: "About six months ago I found myself in an extreme nervous condition. This had been gradually growing upon me for several years and 1 cannot tell what I suffered, it was beyond description. 1 got no rest or sleep nights and my work was done in constant agony. "I imagined there was some impending evil constantlyhanging over me and could not rid myself of the idea that insanity was in store for me. I knew better than to do lots of things that I did do but could not help it. "I was indeed a wreck and was on the point of giving up in despair. I employed physicians who did me no good and my condition continually grew worse.

JlliS. W. A. TIXKHAM.

'"Finally a friend advised me to try Dr. Greene's Xervura blood and nerve remedy. I commenced taking it and before using the first bottle up there was decided improvement. have now used most three bottlesand am entirely cured of all my troubles. :''I sleep well and my work is easily and comfortably done. In fact, I do all my work for a large family, which I was unable to do before and have not done for five years before taking Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy. "I attribute my cure entirely to this wonderful medicine and most cordially recommend it to all man kind. Please publish this lettor for the good of others."

There are countless numbers of persons in different stages of nen 011s complaints. They ase not sick, but are just out of order, have weak nerves and tired bodies. You are one of them and you need Dr. Greene's Nervura blood aucl nerve remedy. It cures all such diseases quickly and permanently. Try it, and feel your nerves grow strong and your health return.

It is the discovery of Dr. Greene, of 155 West 15th Street, New York, the most successful specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases, lie can be consulted free, personally or by letter.

It May Ho As JItH'U For Yon.

Mr. Fred Miller, of Irving, 111., writes that lie had a severe Kidney trouble for many years, with severe pains in his back and also that his bladder was affected, lie tried many so called Kidney cures but without any good result. About a year ago he began the use of Electric Bitters and found relief at once. Electric Bitters is especially adapted to cure of all Kidney and Liver troubles and often give almost instant relief. One trial will prove our statement. Price only 50c. for large bottle at Cotton & Rife's Progress Pharmacy.

IT is important to keep the liver and kidneys in good condition. Hood's Sarsaparilla is the remedy for invigorating these organs.

Chamberlain's Eye and Skin Ointment Is a certain cure for Chronic Sore Eyes, Granulated Eye Lids, Sore Nipples, Piles, Eczema, Tetter, Salt Rheum and Solid Head, 25 cents per box. For sale by druggists.
