“If the government may right, fully collect money by taxatio i and then donate it as a bounty or sub. sidy to individuals or corporations engaged in particular industries or particular commercial enterprises, in order to make their private business profitable, why may it not also collect it and distribute it among particular classes of the people to equalize their fortunes, and thus accomplish all that Socialism and Communism are demanding?”—Speaker Carlisle. DON’T let that cold of yours run on. You think it Is a ligh thing. But it may run into catarrh, Or into pnaumonia. Or con umption. Catarrh is distrusting. Pneumonia is dang reus. Consumption is death itself. The breathing apparatus must be Kept healthy and clear of all obstruc tiors and offensive matter. Other' wise there is trouble ahead Alt be diseases es these parts, head, nose, throat, bronchial tubes and lungs, can be delightfully and entirely cured by the use of Bosche.’s German Syrup Ir you don’t knov this already, thousands nh<l thousands of people can tell vou They have been cured by it, and “know how it is, themselves ” Bottle only 75 cents Ask uuy druggist

One Grabber Makes Money.— Bill Arp says: “A farmer said to me the other day: “Why doesnt Uncle Sam pay me $lO bounty on every bale of cotton I raise? He fiays Joe Brown $6.50 on ev?ry ton of pig-iron, and I’m just as good as Joe Brown.’” —Atlanta Constitution. That is what we call getting to the core of the matter. The Minnesota farmer is just as good as the Pennsylvania iron king. If the latter be entitled to a bounty on his iron, why shouldn’t the former have a bounty on his wheat end pork? —St. Paul Globe.

Ohio, affirms: “The Lest selling medicine I have ever handled in ray 20 years’ experience, is Electric Bitters." Thousands of others have adde 1 th dr testimony, so that the verdict is unanimous that Electric Bitters docuie all diseases©! the Liver, Kidneys or Blood. Only a half dollar a bottle at F B. Meyer’s Drug Store. 2.

ARRAIGNING THE G. O. P.

Ex-Senator Reeve Reminds Republicans of a Vei.y Unsavory Recoup. ' —r The action of the President in calling the attention oi C ongress and the people directly to h matter of the greatest importance to the welfare of the wnole country irrespective of party, and his n anly appeal to them to treat the questions involved » s matters of business, have been me* by the Assembly of Republican Clubs, just held in New York, as if he had thrown down a glove, challenging that party to combat, and the members

of that Assembly— speaking for the Republican party—have thrown down a glove to signify an acceptance of the challenge. They proceeded to substitute for the Preside! t’s presentation to Congress and the people a mass of “goose leed” of their o»n manufacturing; to declare that to be what the President said and their response to it, and then vaunt that party’s past glories, its present and future courage, an 4 to libel the President and all who agree with him—that is, a majority of the voters of the nation.

If it were not contempt ble and disgusting it would be laughable to read the rhodomontade so blatantly put forth in speech and resolutions by that assembly. According to them the President is a knave and a foo\ and the American \citizens calling themselves Democrats, with all who support Mr. Cleve'and, are enemies oi their country; have been, and are en gaged in seeking to destroy it, to erect barriers against lit erty and progress, and umess these ravaging boasters are alone intrust d with the administration of government the nation will, be destroyed. Rational peeple can but wonder how a man like E varts can be led I into making or aj proving any such expression s as constitute the declarations of that assembly. Such persons can but painful.y lealize that many men like him have lost sight ■ of every element of statesmanship in the mad pursuit of partisan notoriety and personal gain. Nay, more than tha ; they have divested themselves of all fairness, hon or and patriotism. With the fact before them that, under the present administration, there has been more prosperity, stability and material progress than the country has ever known, they have the effrontery to charge that the administration is destroying the country, and to claim credit to hemselves of having so administered the Government as to make this stability nd prosperity in spite of the Democrats to dertrov it. In face of the fact that when their party was in charge of the Government they so managed as to steal —yes, absolutely steal—the surplus money largely, and drive the national flag from the ocean, thev have th shameless impudence to claim ths they found an emp'y treasury and left a full one; a nation in debt and withoui credit, and left one with boundless reseurc s and credit; a nation without ships and left it with the oo’an covered with skips and unless their party be restored to power national bankruptcy—financially and morally—will ensue. They propose tn establish a •‘papa” government; take possession of schools, commerce, inland transportations, manufactures, carry on business by subsidies, and leav * the people to foot the expenses while having no voice only thro’ them.

In recounting the history of their party they should have been impartial. They should have told of the murders, robberies, perjuries, larcenies, the usurpations, frauds, compou ding of crimes and misdemeanors, the false p etenses, malfeasances, and other offenses, of which their officials—high and low —were guilty continually, with their knowledge and without their condemnation, if not with their sanction; so continuous that all perceptions of truth and honesty

were pe; verted and lost; and the abnormal conditions of dishonesty c mp. 1 them to now continue in dishonesty, lying and hypocrisy, in their speeches and declarations in this assembly ol Republican Clubs Thej claim credit for economy and honesty. Why do they not declare that when the rebellion began they could buy a gun for seven dollars and a su.t of clothes for fourteen dollars to equip a soldier; and they were worth no more elsewhere during the war; but they o managed as to make the gun cost over twenty-seven ami the suit of clothes over forty dollars bes re the war closed? Why do they not declare that they created a national debt of three billions of dollars

and within twenty years they received in actual money eighteen billions of dollars, and got away with it all, payieg less than one billion of this debt they created? Why did they not declare that by a course of vicious cltss legislation and corrupt practices in the government, they built up a moneyed and landed aristocracy in this country—in many cases controlled by aliens—brought on war between the laborers and the capitalists, and stole by fraud and perjury two hundred millions of acres oi’ the public domain ? Why did they not declare that they gave nearly five mill'ODsoi. degraded negroes nearly all the privileges of citizenship v.hile they w re wholly unab'e to < omprehend or discharge its oblig tions, and for twenty years left them without protection and without providing for “a free ballot and a fair count” (for w ich they now cry), and that by means of a nat onal “bureau,” established by themselves, they cheated the poor negro out of abort two millions or

their hard earned savings, intrusted to their care for safe keeping ? Why did they de. 1 are that by every crime in the calendar they de” Fended the expressed will of the people and stole the Presidency? There declarations would hav ft all been true, and the, are matter 8 of unimpeachable record, and th° li i -t of offenses might He truthfully extended indefinitely. If the lis[ of criminal and vicious acts the Republican party and officials belonging to it were guilty of while in charge of the Government sho’d be printed in detail, it would carpet New York city and county* Yet they have the unparalleled effrontery to put forth such a declaration as the one presented by this assembly of clubs, and to denounce the majority of American voters as traitors and enemies o- their country and its welfare.

The Vincennes News says: “If protection raised the price of labor, all employers would instantly turn free-traders.” A fact which none will dispute. Q I Their Business Booming. Probably no one thing has caused Rflch a general r vival of trade at F B. Meyer’s Drug Store as their giving away to their customers of so many free trial bottles of Dr. King’s New Discovery for Consumption. Their trade is simply enormous in this yery valuaolo article from the sac that it always cures and never disappoints. Coughs, Colds, Asthma. Bronchitis, Croup, and all throat and lung diseases quickly cured. You can test it before buying by getting a trial bottle free, large size $!• Every bettie warranted. 8 A Sound Legal Opinion. E. Bainbridge Munday, Esq., County Atty ~ Clay Co., Tex, says: “Have used Electric Bitters with most happy results. Mt brother was also very low wito Malarial Fever and Jaundice, but was euicd by timely use of this medicine, Am satisfied Electric Bitters saved his life ” Mr D I Wilcoxson, of Horse Cave. Ky., adds a like testimony, saying:— ; H positively believe i he would have died, had it not been for Electric Bit* I ters. This great remedy will ward off, as well as cure all Malarial Diseases, and for all Kidney, Liver and Btom > ach Disorders stands unequaled.— Price 50c. aud ST, at F. B Meyer’s. 0
