~lf you are in search of a little } wholesome - truth, please read the article headed “Don’t kill your town.” It hits quite a number of persons in this town, . merchauts included, “altlx'odgh not specificaly -pointed out.— The plain fruth is, very few people sepm to care for anybody but themselves. The general welfare and prosperity of the town. is of no concern to them, So long as this ig the case, you need not look for either growth or improvement of the place. . £ ‘ —A-good many persons have-a mistaken idéa about what Indian summer is, and tell us that delightful season of the year has come when we have our .first clear, frosty mornings and bright days. This, the Salem Democrat says, is a mistake. - If this sort of frostjweather were to last six weeks ‘without rain, there would be no Indian summer. After the early frosts the leaves fall and it requires a shower of rain to cause the faller leaves to ferment, which continues 'for a time and warms up the atmosphere. During ‘this period of fermentation the season -called Indian summer comés in. ;

' Does Prohibition Prohibit? ~ Some well meaning but misinformed persons seem never totire of asserting that prohibition is afailure, and point to Maine as an illustration of their assertion. ' The LaPorte Argus calls the temperance people of Maine, “temperance fanatics,” notwithstanding the fact that both of the great political parties indorse prohibition. At the last Democratic State Coaventionthe committee on resolutions reported nothing at all which referred to the liquor traffic, but alawyer of -Bangor moved an amendment to the effect that prohibition was disapproved by the democratic party, and that license was the better and wiser policy. On the call for the vote but very few members arose in the affirmative, but when the negative was called the im.mense assembly arose to their feet, with cheer upon cheer, three times three ‘and a tiger. Thus the democratic party of Maine has deliberately repudiated the liquer traffic and all ity works. : ] Fein

1t will aid us to an understanding of the facts if we examine the testimony of some of the citizens of Maine who are in a position to know thel facts., Governor Chamberlain in' his message. to the Legislature in’ 1870, said: “The laws against intoxicating liquors are us well executed and obeyed as the laws against profanity, unchastity and murder.” e i :

¢ Governor Nelsou Dingley, Jr., said, in 1874: “The great improvement in the drinking habits of the people of this State within thirty or forty years is 0 evident that no candid man who has observed or investigated the facts can deny it. The city of Lewiston (with Auburn,) with a population of 30,000, has not an open dram shop.— Secret drinking has not taken the place of open drinking.’ . - "Hon. Wm.'P. Frye, member of Congress and ex-Attorney . General of Maine, says: , :

“] can and do, from my own personal observation, unhesitatingly aflirm that the consumption of intoxicating liquors in Maine is. not to-day onefourth as great as it was twenty years ago; that, in the country portions of the State, the sale and use have almost entirely ceased; that the law of itself, under a vigorous enforcement of its provisions, has created a temperance sentiment which is marvelous, and to which opposition is powerless. In my opinion, our remarkable temperance reform of to-day is the legitimate child of the law.”.

~ The above was concurred in by U. 5. Senators Lot. M. Morriil and Hannibal Hamlin; alsoby members of Congress J. G. Blaine, John Lyneh, J. A. Peters and Eugene Hale. .. . j

. J. 8. Wheelwright, Mayor of Baugor, says:- “It is safe to say that in ‘our city not one-tenth part as much s sold now as in years past.” : j udge Clifferd, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, said: “Under the operation of the law there has been a diminution. of erime, and the effort had been made to make the sale of liquor disreputable, and to- confine the traffic to the lowest class of persons.” J. H.Drummond, formerly Attorney General, said: “There were no more violations in proportion to the drinkers, than there were violations of the law against theft in . proportion to thieves.” ‘ _

Hon. George 'G. Stacy, Secretary of State, said: “The effect of thelaw has been to largely reduce crime, especially that class of crime such as gambling, fighting, ete.” ' ; ’* Hon. Joshua Nye, late State Constable, and who is well qualified to speak for the State as any living man, in a letter dated May 18, 1875, says: “Within ‘the past six months I have visited thirteen of the sixteen counties of ‘Maine, and I know whéreof 1 speak when I say that the cause of temperance never stood so well before. " The law is well enforced, and in nearly all the towns no intoxicating liguor ig sold contrary to law.” e _ From these testimonies it is evident that if prohibition iz a failure in Maine, those whe ought to know all about it have failed to discover the sad fact, cn o R TR MATTN.

20 . MR. & MRs. C. CASKEY. Ligonier, Ind., Oct, 12, Al ‘ Soln e I e s ~ —The Laporte Circuit court has decided that Charles Mayne shall retain -the position of warden of the North‘ern Indiana prison. The republican board of directors passed a resolution -removing him, upon which an appeal - was taken to the Circuit Court resulting as above stated. Mr, Mayne's administration has given general satisfaction during the time he has served ‘as warden, and there was no cause for his vemoval only on the theory that to the victors belong the spoils. Thus writes the Plymouth Democraf, The decision, we dare say, is psculiar1y gratifying to'Mdt Geo.

' “The Boys in Blue,” ~ The above is the itle of a small but spicy monthly published at Washington city. . A few extraets from its columns will indicate to the intelligent reader that tae soldiers are no longer to be deceived into voting for their oppressors under the guise of “loyalty:” Tom Scott has over a hundred thousand dollars a year for his income. The soldiers that defended Scott’s property get $l3 a month. w ‘ - Capital and labor are twin sisters, and to oppress the one and favor the other is cruel injustice. - Labor must be protected, or the nation must perish. ; : o

Hereafter let the workingmen and old soldiers vote only for men taken from their own class. Bohdholders will never help the poor. Remember this. 0 =) ey

“ The great uprising of the laboring classes has - fully demonstrated' the necessity of the repeal of the resumption act, and the issuing of money enough to:.do the business of the country. ; .

Unless confidence is restored, the lagt strike will be as nothing tompared with the great uprising among the laboring masses before another year ends. Markit. Congressmen, do you hear? : :

Let Congress, at the called session, repeal the resumption act, restore silver, tax the bondholder, pass the equalization bounty bill, protect labor, give no more aid to corporations, protect the public domain from greedy speculators, -and prosperity and happiness will bloom from North to South and Tast to West. b :

There is no longer a doubt that the goldiers’ and the several workingmen’s organizations will hereafter vote #ogether for men of their class, unless CGongress does them justice by giving them (thesoldiers) equal bounfies and by repealing the odious class-legisla-tion that now disgraces the nation. ~Gov.James D, Williams, of Indiana, may feel justly proud of the resuits of his policy in that State during the great strike. Not a life was lost; not a-dollar’s worth of property “was destroyed. He did not think it necessary to call out the militia to shoot down unoffending " citizens for asking their employers to pay them enough to keep gtarvation from their.doors. Governor Williams thought more of the lives of his people than he did of property; hence he saved both, Those who sought to save property at the expense of life, lost both. Soldiers are seldom needéd when prudent councils prevail. L e —— > »_,:._.-. “inamsr. President Lincoln as an Anti-Slavery . - Man. | Ex-Seoretary Welles in Galaxy. : Mr. Lincoln was always an anti-slav-ery man, but as I have sa/id, was never a' political abolitionist. Event and war necessity compelled him-to adopt the policy of emanecipation, for which he has received and deserved merited honors, but those who applaud his course in that respect omit to mention that colonization and deportation of the slaves when set free was deemgd by him an essential part of his emancipation policy. @ Whether right or wrong on that subject it is not necessary to discuss, but the truth need not be suppressed. He believed it would be best for both the whites and blacks that the latter should leave the country, or, as he expressed it in his interview with the colored representatives, “it is better for us both to be separated.” Xnowing his convictions and earnest solicitude on'this branch of hig policy, I have sometimes doubted whether he would not have hegitated longer in issuing the decree of emancipation had he been aware that colonization wonld not be dccepted as an accompaniment. i v — -T— - i The Season of Intermittents,

All miasmatic complaints, in other words, all-disorders generated by unwholesome exhalations from theearth or water, are prevalent at this season, In every section subject to the visitation of fever and ague, or other forms of intermittent disease, the causes which producsthese maladies arenow actively at work, This, therefore,isa period of the year when the inhabitants of such districts should prepare their systems to meet the unwhole- ' some- condition of the atmosphere by a course of tonic and alterative treat.ment. Foremost among the invigorants, recommended by time and expe rierice as a mgans of fortifying the systemn against all endemic and epi ‘demic maladies, stands Hogstetter’s Stomach Bitters. By a timely use of the Bitters, the feeblest resident of ‘an unhealthy soilmay escape the sickness which, without the aid of this potent ally of nature, will be apt to overtake the strongest. . 24twd,

Ero@ueNT Damr Voorhees has been lecturing on Themas Jefferson in several towns of this State during the past week, and will continue doing so for some time to come. The Terre 1IlIa;ut:e Express thus speaks of the lecure:

Mr. Voorhees delivered his lecture on Jefferson to an appreciative and cultivated audience in the opera house last night under the auspices of the Young-Men’s Christian Association. It is at once the most glcwing and the: most just tribute to the great man that has yet been uttered. To all but the most elaborate students of the life and character of Jefferson the lecture is a great surprise. Most men of intelligence are apt to think that they have ‘a fair understanding of the great democrat, but Mr. Voorhees lights up the character in such a way as to make it fresh and interesting beyond the anticipation of those even who would expect much of our great orator. Every part of the lecture shows careful preparation ang elaborate work.

PrßrsoNs who do not keep a regular file of their local paper for future reference, could make a very inferesting volume of local history by preparing a serap book, selecting and clipping all articles of local interest and application that appear from time to time in the local press and correspondence sent to all papers in the vicinity.— Deaths, marriages, memoirs, accidents and incidents, sayings and doings would all be matters of interest to the possessor of such a gollection many years hence, and a volume thus prepared, with proper dates attached would be highly prized by future.generations. It would be an epitome of local history that could not be preserved 8o well in any other way. XKeep a local scrap book.—Salem Democrat.

Dyspepsia! Dyspepsia! Dyspepsia! ~ Dyspepsia is the most ‘perplexing of all human ailments. Its symptoms are almost infinite in their variety, and the forlorn and despondent victims of the disease often fancy themselves the prey,in turn of every known ‘malady. This is due, in part to the close sympathy which exists between the stomach and the brain, and in part also to the fact that any disturbance of the dig%smve function necessarily disorders the liver, the bowels and the nervous system, and affects, to some extent, the quality of the blood. ' - E.F. Kunkel’s Bitter Wine of Irom is a sure cure. This is not a new prep--aration, to be tried and found want‘ing; it has been prescribed daily for ‘many years in the practice of eminent ' physicians with unparalleled success; it 1% not expected or intended to cure -all the diseases to which the human family is subject, but is warranted to _cure Dyspepsia in its most ohstinate form. XKunkel’s Bitter Wine of Iron ‘never fails to cure. Symptoms.of Dyspepsia are loss of appetite, wind and -rising of the food, dryness of the mouth, heartburn, distension of the stomach and bowels, constipation, dizziness, headache, sleeplessness, and low spirits.

Senator Gordon, in hisreply at a banquet to the toast, “The Blue and the Gray; blended once in the embrace of battle—blended now 1n a lasting peace,” after a reférence to the late war, said: “This fight 18 over, and if you ever want another fight, another duel; let it be one of Paddy’s’ three cornered duels, where two of the principals put a third party to fight. [Laughter]. Ipropose in future that we shall join our common arms against some common enemy. [Applause]. = And that reminds me that I wish to send a challenge, and I ask the distinguished gentleman upon my left (Mr. Secretary Evarts) to ‘bear it. Heis too chivalrous to refuse me. I want to challenge the North to compete with the South in devotion to the constitution, and to the union ‘of the States under the constitution. As a representative of those who wore the gray, I send a challenge to those who wore the blue to outstrip us, if they can, in devotion to the liberties of the people and to the great interests of this great country, in peace or in war. [Applause].”

Senator Morton’s Condition and How i ile is Affected. e

A correspondent of the New York Tribune, writing from Richmond, says this of Senator Morton: v

“Senator Morton lies in a narrow bed, raised above its usual height, and is occasionally lifted to a louuge near by. His whole left side from the neck down is paralyzed, and he is entirely helpless, not being able to-move himself in bed or to raise his head. He has not lost but little flesh during his Tong itlness, although his digestion has been geriously impaired, and he has subsisted chieily on gruel and beef tea. His face has undergone a marked change, however, the eyes being sunken and the cheeks not as full as formely. His expression is one of intense weariness. Like all men of active mind and great vitality, he suffers much from enforced inaction, and he sometimes falls into spells of feverish nervousness, when it seems to him as if'he could not possibly longer endure the hardships of lying like a log, wi]th his body refusing to obey his willd Yl

Osman Pasha.

-'The absurd canards which havebeen get afloat recently concerning theidentity of Osman Pasha, the Turkish commander at Plevna, one of which asserted that he was the disgraced French Marshal Bazaine, the other with equal directness calling him one Crawford, a Kentucky adventurer, are now set at rest by the Turkish Minister to this country, who locates him beyond all possibility of question as a Turk, who first studied with his brother, Hussein Effendi, a Constantinople Professor, and entered the military school. He left it as a Lieutenant, entered . the army in 1852, served in the Crimean war, and, at its conclusion, entered the Imperial Guard as a Captain. Subsequently he quelled a Cretan insurrection and was promoted to the rank of Colonel. Inthe Servian war last summer he was Chief of Staff of the Fourth Army Corps, and for gallant service at Zaitschar was raised to the rank of Marshal (Muehir), which he now holds.~ 2

There never has been a time when the healing of 80 many different diseases has been caused by ontward application as the present. Itis an undjsputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the nre of ordinary plasters. ol s | Dr., Mzurvin’s CarsiouM Porous PLASTERS are -acknowledged by all who have used them to act gulcker than any other plaster they ever before ried, and that one of these plasters will do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. All other plasters are slow of action, and require to be worn continually to effect a cure; but with these it is entirely different: the instant one is apglied the patient will feel its effect. . hysicians in all ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used as a medical agent for an outward a?plicatlon ; but it is only of very recent date that its advantaﬁes in 4 porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, ¢onvinced of the wonderful cures effected by D=. MzLVIN'S ,GAPsromlr Porous Prasters, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases a 8 rheumatism, painin the gide and back, and all such cases as have required the nse of plasters or liniment. After you have tried other plasterg and liniments, and they have failed, and you want & certain cure, ask gour druggistfor Dr, MEL~ vin's Carsioom Porous PLASTER. You.can ha.rdlty believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Although ¥owerful and quick in its action, yon can rely on its safety for the most delicate person to wear, as it is free from lead and other poisonous material commonly nged in the manufacture of ordinary plasters. Oue trial is a sufilcient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will sell hundreds to your friends. o : Ask your druggist for Dr, Meuvin’s Capsroux Porous PrasTeß, and take no other ; or, on receipt -of 25 cents for one, $1 for five, or §2 for a dozen, they will be mailed, gqst;gaid, to any address in the United States or Canadas. ‘ e
