The Reason Why

Ayer's Pills are so popular Is, that while always reliable as a cathartic medicine, they never leave any ill effects. Tliia is becauso they are purely vegetable, and entirely free from calomel or any other dangerous drug. In all oases, therefore, whether the patient be old or young, they may be confidently administered.

In the Southern and 'Western States, where derangements of the liver are so general, Ayer's Tills have proved an inestimable blessing. D. W. Baino, New Berne, N. C., writes:

I suffered along time with stomach and liver troubles. 1.tried various remedies, but received no benefit until I commenced taking Ayer's l'ills. Tliese pills benefited me at onee. I took tliem regularly for a few months, and my health was completely restored."

Throughout Now England, next to lung diseases, Stomach and Bowel Complaints are the most prevalent.

Dyspepsia

and Constipation are almost universal. Mr. Oallacher, a practical chemist, of ltoxbnrv, Mass., who was long troubled with Dyspepsia, writes

A friend induced me to try Ayer's Pills, and, after taking one box without much benefit, 1 wits disposed to quit them but ho urged perseverance, and, before I had finished the second box, began to experience relief. I continued taking them, at iutcrvnls, until I had used eleven boxes. Suftice it to say, that I um now well man, and grateful to your chemistry, which outstrips mine."

The lie«d and stomach are always in sympathy hence the cause of most of those distressing headaches, to which so many, especially women, are subject. Mrs. Harriet A. Marble, of I'oughkeepsie. N. Y., writes that for years she was a martyr to headache, and never found anything to give her uioro than temporary relief, until she begun taking Ayer's Ptllfl. since which she lias been in the enjoyment of perfect health.

The Bdtimore Americsu says: We have too many saloons and we get too little revenue from them. High license at a remedy for this condition of affairs hss worked well wherever it has been tried." The writer of this must hare had Terie Haute in his mind.

As there seems to be a mistaken impression about that prite fight in whioh a Johnny Reagan figured, the Expreis hastens to correct it. The Reagan who fit is not our own Johnny Regan, postmaster in this cit7. The names are spelled differently. Indeed, there should

Secretary Whitney is writing enough letters of the reform, economy and flapdoodle kind to lead to the iopretsioa that he is desirions of taking the nomin ation for second place under Cleveland away from Black, Stevenson, Spark sand the rest cf the department candidates in Washington. Whitney is by far the best candidate for the Democracy. He can furnish Standard Oil dollars more than, sufficient to elf set Black's soldier record, Stevenson's spoils record aad Sparks' ridiculous »Sorts to save the public lands to actual settlers.

Sheriff Weeks is voluble with reasons why there shoald net be a workhousa. The greater portion' of tbe fees of the sheriffs office accrue fom the boarding of tramps and drunks sent to him by the police. John ear? knew this and while he was chafed at the exactions of the police and knew much of their doings that would have startled those persons wt have an abiding faith in the Lawlor-Vandever regime, be kept quiet because he knew they conld deprive him of every cent of this boarding revenue. The workhouse must be established....

The Express has long sirci arrived at Ihe conclusion that this fight to remove Captain Ed. Vandever from the police force will never succeed. He is always "on too." He was "on top" as the prom inent official in the enforcement of the order to close the gambling houses. He is now "on top" in the ellort to relieve the county cf the exf ease of bo irding tramps by the sheriff. While the Express gives him fall credit for agility in keeping on top there is danger that he will overlook some of the top points and in a friendly way we Would remiod him that there are cminons indications that gambling is being resumed in the city.

I'oulanger, for whom a march was composed of a bit cf music so inspiring that it crossed the ocean aud became all the rage in New York, and was considered so iccsndiary that at a critical time the French government prohibited its performance by military bands—Boulanger, this ideal figh'er, has appealed to public opinion as to whether his "honor", has been satisfied in the quarrel with Ferry. It is calculated to lower one's belief in tbe high strung eenee of honor among brave mea to find a Boulanger, the ideal fighter, cardicg the newspapers in discussion of'the point whether he ought to whip the life out of some other fellow.

Gambling is resumed in Terre Haute. Let Captain Vandever show his ability and sincerity in this matter and after he ia done with it the Express will take up with him the Workhouse diversion thathe now favors. It is well that public attention be turned to this matter of saving to the county the unnecessary cost of bjarding tramp.*, but the captain can be kept very busy -ist now watching the gambling houses. There is every indication of the resumption of gambling in the places on Main street between Fifth and Sixth. Captain Vandever and Patrolman Stoecker, of that district, are pirticnlarly responsible for permit ting it if there is g.-mbling in the old haunts.

If there was any doubt before that tbe president had been captured by the Higeins people, the present attitude of Fairchild, the secretary of the treasury would remove it. Fairchild is the Uriah Beep of the administration. He is the -bycophant who thanked a crowd in New York state for calling him to the front of the platform "in the presence' of the distinguished guest" of the occ sion. This Uriah Heep would not do a thing about which he had any doubt as to the president's wishes, however proper it might be io itself. Therefore, it is that when he gives to the country a carefully prepared statement that it isn't exactly spoils," but effiess that the democrats ought to have, it should be understood that the president has quit the reform dodge.

The Democratic press have ceased their angry denaih of tbe meaftre Democratic plurality in Kentucky, and have engaged in an even more angry quarrel among themselves as to the cause of that small plurality. The fact that in the largest vote ever given in the state the Democratic head of the ticket has a-plurality of not much over 10 0(H), whereas Cleveland had (52,000 and Hancock 43.000, furnishes material for mnch acrimonious discussion. The claim thht it was an "off year" is taken away from the Courier*Journal leaders because the vote was the heaviest ever given in the Btate. The Atlanta Constitution, a protective tariff Democratic newspaper makes the ''tariff for revenue only" shibboleth of the Courier Journal and Carlisle reeponaible for the practical defeat, but in its zeal as a Randall adherent puts thel6ss ol votes at from 75,000 to 100,000, which excessive reckoning gives the Courier-Jouraal, through Mr. Watterson, who ii in i?ew York hundreds of miles away, opportunity to deny the figures bat sot the facts. While not wholly indoidag him the Ex* press is inclined to the believe that a Louisville correspondent of the New York Poet is, considering all things,

Captain Vandever if the polioe follows up the suggestion that a workhoaee would not ooly be an economical ad van* tage but a step toward practictl moral ret arm. At preeent the tramps and drunks,—distinct specimens of humanity—are not only a financial burden but a positive social injury. The state board of health has advertised Terie Haute's jail as one of the cleanest and most bos pltable places of the kind in Indiana. The tramp or drank need? only to make his preeence known to tbe police to get free board in that y-.stitution, the county paying for it. A tramp- or drunk doesn'tl. object to the stigma, has no keen sense of lots of self-respect or manhood at being sen tanced to thirty days in il. In fact, as wis Flannigan at the national convention, that is what he is here for. He traveled many weary miles to reach that best jail In Indiana. Vigo county has been the dnpe for many years in this matter. It hes paid thousands of dollars to sheriffs, and perhaps Terre Haute police, in the care of tramps and drunkards. Captain Vandaeer could have spoken sooner, perhaps, but let that pass and let us have relief. The sheriff and police can make a living out of their stipends and fees, other than this leeching process on the county.

The Sullivan Democrat is a newspaper foi: which the Express has nnbounding respect, both for the quality of its news and general "make-up," and on account of its editor. The Democrat many times and oft has pecked at the Express, and, in the language of an esteemed fellow citizen, "garbled" extracts »hrie,k,^

from this newspaper, bat regardless of that common failing the Express has sincere admiration for the Democrat and its editor. It is therefore with a feeling of disappointment that the Exprers sees in the recurring appearance of the Democrat no response to the question as to whether the venerable editor believes the men accused 8f the tally sheet forgeries at Indianapolis were provenjguilty in the trial? The "last word" was by the Express and was an explicit snd direct question on that print. This was bef ire Senator Voorhees reappeared from Hot Springs and furnished a keynote, but even yet the Express has faith that the Sullivan editor, who so lpng has stood almost alone for whatever was good in his party will not entirely stifle his honeat convictions and be made to hurrah for the gang. It is, therefore, with more than a contemporary interest, a solicitude born of ideal admiration, that the Express awaits the next issue of its esteemed contemporary of Sulliv an.

The onntry cannot stand many shocks unless the weather changes.

The President of this Uaited States— wa like to consider this Nation in the singular number—is going to St L: uia. He is going. The sixty days of agony, ^uspenset uncntainty, impassioned appeal, coy reluctarce and timid declination are over, and *he president, doubleshotted with a sense of the presidential dignity, is going to St. Louie, just aa everybody, incluiing the president, knew he wonld sixty days ago. The country is not startled at the announce inent it is relieved, perhaps, because the farce of "Oogfct We to Visit Them is nothing new, and in this presentation was a bit tiresome. Ihe president ia going to St. Louis.

Last week Charley Pearlgloss, wi Starch & Fixem, white goods, went to St Louie. The firm told him to go to Monday moroicg. And Monday night found Mr. Pearlgloss in the sleeper snoring his way towatd St Louis, with checks in his pocket for more *nd bigger trunks than the president of tbe United States will car7. His wife and the house knew he was ing. Nobody else said anything about it. And yet Charley Pearlgloss will make more out of his St. Louis trip than the president will.

Whv, there is nothing iu going to St. Louisto mike such a fuss ab»u'. An) body can eo to St. Louis who csn raise $2*2 'Tisn't much of a place to go to. Tbe president of this United States won't stay there after he gets there. Nobooy ever does. A thousand do'lars to oae, the president of the United S afes won't stay in St Louis ten days after he sees what kind of a place it is. The prestdei of this United States has ne/er betn there, or he wouldn't go now. Why didn't he go to St. Louis long ago, when fares weie down, if he has been wanting to go so long and so badly as he prefessesb There was nothing to hinder.

Thete is nothing to hinder auvbody going to St. Lonis It isn't much of a feat. Ir tbe entird Grand Ar of the R/rublic, and the Free and-Expected Maaonr, the Knights of P/thia* and the Anc:ent Order of Benighted Workmen should lift their voices in chorus and

lid"'t 7"*

(|Pearlgloss

to come to Lints, Cha ley

would go all the same. If they said

they would stay at ay if he came, he would tall them to stay away, and he could se 1 more white goods. Why, every week there are people who go to St. Louis who are not wanted there. People go there who are dreaded their own relatives. People go there without invitations even, and stay tor weeks. With the invitation he has, the president of this Uaited States aould stay all winter and go to Shaw's Gardens every day. Why, deatly beloved, tbe djing thief went to heaven "and didn't make half so much fuss about it as the preside of the United States does about going to St, Lou's, which ia only a way-station on that line.

We are, however, really glad that the president of the United States is going to St. Louis. That repetition is a little tiresome, and if we were writing about tbe first president of the United States we would simply say Washington. But the present president of tbe United States is very sensitive, aad complains that he is not treated as the president of the Uaited States should be, and now we are anxious to humor him, lest he should once more take offeree and say that he wouldn't go to St. Louis. We want the president of the United States to go to St Louis, that he may Fee how many other people go there. We hope he will stand around down at the Union depot—we atsure him the depot was not so named in honor of the G. A. R., he may etsnd there all day and not lose a pound of presidential dignity—and see the people come in, without invitation. We hope, for the sake of rewarding the Jeffersonian simplicity of the hand-painted invitation that comes on a special train, the president of the Uaited States will go clear on to Kansas City and see tbe cable cars run up hill. If he could go to Knob Knoster, so that he could see which was the Knob and which ts the Knoster, it wonld be great medicice for the precidint of the Uaited S ates. He would then have traveled, and would know more than the president of the United Stales does now. Not much more, perh*pt, but some. Travel, even though one only goes to St. Louis or Knob Knoster, broadens one. True, the prcsi dent of the Uaited States has traveled some, huf then Holland Patent and Saransc Likes are not so "remote, un fiiended, solitary, s'ow," as Goldsmith, who evideatly knew what he was writing abou^, sayB St, Louis is.

Let us all then, citizens of the great Republic of which Grover W. Cleveland is president, in tbe absecce of Daniel La' mont, let us all, Methodists, Presbyterians, Catholic*, Baptist*, Colonel Ingersoil, Knights of Ltbor, A. men all citizane, in view of the great rest which the country and its pres—beg pardon— the president and his country may obtain by this visit to St. uis, resolve that we will not hinder him. Sty not a word that might pain his sensitive na tuie to tbe point of refus ng (e go. He dosen't want to go to 8 Lou that is evident from ths amount of time and urging and coaxing it has taken to get him to g~, or rather promise to go because the president of the United States may yet change hismind, and yielding to the icflaecce of e*rly habit send a subsfi ute. But since be has been persuaded, against his own judsmeat and' inclination, to goto St Louis, let us stand aside, give him room accord icg to is strength, and see him go. Above all, if you cannot encourage him, don't discourage him. Remember that a thoughtless word uttered by some one in Iowa, who is not a ciliz of St. Louis at all, might cause the president of the Uaited States to declare that unless the invitation is made unanimous he won't go a step. Such things have hap* pened. Let him go.

In these days of general travel, in tbeee days when everybody goes to 8% Louis once or twice a year in these days of railways, when there are more lines of railway from New York to 8an Francisco than there are from New York to Washington in these days when mors people go to St Lotris than to Washington in these daya when clerks aod bired gii Is go to Europe and do the continent on a ok ticket, it is hard for the nation to grow very wildly enthusiastic over the prospect of a man goin to St. Louis. But, as it is down on the programme in six-line pica as a star part, let ua agree to consider it so, and call an extra service in all the churches before the preaident of the Uaited 8latee starts for St. L^uis. The day may come wben tbe president of tbe pnit*d Biatet Will thinls no tpore of packing hte gfipsaek and going to St. Lonis than a eat going to the cupboard, or a
