Wherever prohibition-was made the issue w thebite Kansas municipal eieeliotVs it. wits defeated. Reports from a large number of ttnvhs in this State indicate that, at the elections IrcVA. hist Tuesday, the Democracy was on top, or had made largo gains. 1 A Detroit lawor itasjrfranied a Dill, which is now bofose the| 51ieh;<riin legislature, providing that a man may prove ids will during his life l ime on giving notice to his heirs at' law, and afterwards it shall be unassailable. At the spring school elections "in New Hampshire,the women were given a chance to role, but only leventytive ofthem embraced the opportunity. They could have polled seventy-live thousand votes if they had tin ned out. .The awful eyylone is- still on its travels in the south, leaving death and devastation in its'track. Merida n. La., the latest point Visited, has absolutely l>een swept srotu the face of the earth. Not a house or a tree in the place has been left, standing; and a large eansualty list is reported. Attor n k\' Reed, Who defended (juiteau and fell lfeir to his ^Skeleton, has been retained by ex-Si'Untor Kellogg to defend him in his coming trial.

In only one profes son,that of teaching, do. they outnumber the men, there being 151,375 w omen to 73.335 men engaged in that pursuit. Tin. distinguished Kepublican, Supervising Architect Hill, comes to the front plastered all over with charges showing him to be a monster of corruption w ho lias managed ho get away with about $10,001,000 of the people's money. It is understood, however, that tile Investigating Comm it tee will tnake it lair sailing for Mr. llill. If ■simple justice.is done tho party will sutler, and in all investigations the first consideration is to take care of the party. ,_ If is not many years siuee “readypriuf'papers or “patent inside"were held in contempt by many publishers of weekly papers. Hut they have increased in favor right along,, and lire now used by dailies also in many county seats. To such an ex tent have the weeklies adopted them that the Delphi Times probably gi> es a general statement of the ease when it says that in the ten counties of "the Tenth congressional district it is the only one wholly printed at home. Attorimnu to the last census theta' are; 862 persons employed in the glass manufucturing establishments of Indiana. The average wages paid for labor is $L05 per day.’ YVe have heard nmeh said by the Republican, leaders about protecting these glass \Vdrks. The consumers of t heir wares are taxed from 57 to 110 per cent, to .protect labor that only receives $1.05 per day, .while t he proprietors under projection, have made vast fortunes. How long will the masses submit to such,outrages is a question that will not doirt’».__ “IjoYot: want your daughter to marry a nigger"i" was the horrified howl that was thought to end all argument twentydive years ago wit it any one proposed to abolish slavery. “Do you want to destroy our maim ’actures ?” is a similar shriek that, goes up from a faded few when it is prop osed to abolish that other slavery “protection." The alternative in the one ease’is as true as in the other and no tetter. Slavery was ahopshed and our daughtors have not married negroes. Protection will be abolished ami our manufactures will not be destroyed. The Evansville Evening Tribune Publishing Co. has purchased the Evening Nows ami consolidat' d it with their |ia|icr, calling the tietv paper the Tribune-News. 'Hie News and Tribune have been bitter rival; since the starting of the News eighteen months ago. The change was a surprise to the public. The News has lieen the special champion of Wim H ilman,cxCongressrrian from this dis net, who w as defeated Inst fall.

J..LI—J-J. 'SB .1;— lL.iULillill11 J " tm Trade ^ ; If only Republican oyghns and "bra-, tors charged tbit the Democratic $xurty advoeAtea^pe trade, thfe tirtte devoted to'the contradiction and disproval of the arraignment would te prac-' tieally thrown away. But it so happens that here and there IVmerratic organs and orators, for reasons quite inexplicable, pursue a similar course. If free t fade means anything, it means trade free from tariff taxation, the abolishment of etistems aud the admission of foreign Merchandise of all descriptions fret? of duty. Free Trade, .therefore, means no tariff. When thus hoaestlv stated it is f«utvd tltJtf those

who charge upon the Democratic psv-i tv free trade notions are doing it for, considerations utterly and flagrantly at war with the truth. There is absolutely no free.trade p*rtv ill the United States, and scarcely a man who advocates the theory of free trade, and the i*e*i who are constantly making such accusations'know that they are guilty of such perversion of facts, as, were they stated in a Court ©f Justice, would subject them to serious penalties and inconvenience. The purpose in view of those who discard the truth in the discussion of taritf topics, and resort to chicane, is easily detected, and has been exposed so frequently that the people arc becoming disgftst^d with their duplicity, and are determined to correct the evils] w hich a high protective taritf has in-1 flirted upon the country. The people are aware of the fact, that a certain amount of revenue must be collected annually for the support of the Government'. They are also familiar with the fact that vast sums of.money have been annually collected in excess of the necessities of the Government. They kn6w that this money yomes out joftheir pockets. The demand istherefore, for reduction of taxation. In makiug this reduction the people demand that the prime necessities of life |—articles in universal demand—shall bear the lightest burden of taxation, ; and that luxuries shall pay the higher tax. The people are willing to be taxed for the support of the Government. They are not willing to be taxed for the support of corporations or individuals. Tan Its so framed as to reverse the will of the people, like that which has been in existence for a quarter of a century, and still exists, is a cruel curse upon the people, and they will change it. ; They will not abolish the taritf; they will not demand tree trade, but they will abolish tariff taxation, w hich compels them t© pay tribute to corporations and individuals under the plea that the welfare of the Government demands such perfidious practices. Their demand is not free trade, but a demand for trade emancipated from mercenary villiany ; from protective robbery; from monopoly piracy; clean cut and undisguised rascality. If the Government, for the purpose of meetin^just demands upon its Treasury, requires that the necessities of life shall be taxed, the people will cheerfully pay what is required. To that extent let the tax be levied. It is not free trade; it is common sense. It is patriotic devotion to the welfare of the country. It meets w ith universal approval. It is the American idea. Kut lo frame a tariff which compels one maRto pay tribute to another man, lo tax the many to enrich the few; to

nrake Uie neli richer ana tine poor poorer; to create and maintain monopolies, is an outrage which can not be perpetuated and must cease. The claptrap about protecting American labor lias Rest its hold upon the people, upon the laborers^ themselves. Working; people* have d^covcVfd tfhe pwyprtivei tacill's do not protect them! They have discovered at last that monopolists par the lowest wages and are invariably the most heartless taskmasters. The cry of free trade has lost its scare. It no longer intimidates toilers. The lowest possible wages for work, and Hie highest jaissihle prices for the necessities of life*, is the protection tarifl programme, and it is not popular. To abolish the tax on diamonds and maintain the tax on stilt and rice is free trade in t he wrong direction; it emancipates the luxury and bunions the necessity. The free trade party in the United states is that which demands that trade shall he set free from taxation levied for the benefit of eorportions and individuals. It means taxation levied for the use of the Government, and if thereby corporations or individuals are incidentally benefited, so he it. What is unavoidable must he accepted and horn with philosophic composure. An iniquitous tariff creates millionaires anil paupers, while an hottest adjustment .of taxation, if it does not banish front society these extremes of opulence and poverty, will at least have a tendency to mitigate the evils which they inflict. Judge Johu A. Jameson, in an article in the North American Review on the subject of divorce, makes a practical suggestion wortl0' the atten-, lion of law makers. He proposes that legislation shall make ^ie desertion of a wife a criminal ollcnso Tor which the deserter may he arrested, tried and convicted, and whereby requisitions may be matle by one State on another for the surrender of the criminal. The Judge cites the fact that if a man steals a watch \yorth fifteen dollars in Maine and flees to Oregon, by a reqhestion from the governor of Maine directed to the governor of Oregon he may be taken back and punished for the crime. “'Why should the wretch who has left a helpless wife and children in the same state of Maine and , gone west to grow up with the country' and another wife, not lie dragged hack as well ?” A very pertinent ,inotirv. -“In this state there is now a law allowing a deserted wife to sue for support, hut this is not enough. There should he a law making it a criminal offense for a husband to desert a wife without sufficient cause, and such cause should be one sufficient to entitle the party to a divorce. Such a law would prevent many a poor woman being left to struggle for a living, or herself and children from becoming paupers. ___ At the close of a well-tempered editorial the New York Times says: As nearly as we catt judge of popular sentiment by careful study of its-manifestatlen, tjs demands are in eulutsm-e as follows: The gradual diminution of duties on raw material and instruments of trade; of those duties which weigh most heavily on the cost of living, and so on labor and production, and the prudent but steady remission of the duties which were levied for war purposes to compensate for internal tares imposed during the war and since repealed. * That is certainly- a reasonable demand. and a policy based upon it would seem to be certain of success. Hut whatever policy is adopted and by whatever party, the principle is abroad in the land and is growing', to so modify the existing tariff until rvcvy feature of it wfrtrb give:; a* bounty to. the produc fat the expense of the consumer is eliminated; and it remains only a tax levied for the benefit of the government.

WITHOUT MEDICINE The plan of treating' chronic diseases of all kinds by RESUSCITATION, as used by Dit. Sabin, of Washington, Indiana, requires but little medicine. In many cases none at all. The treatment is pleasant; it is safe; It is certain, and just the treatment needed by those broken down constitutions where medicine has failed to give relief. It removes Tnflamation, JPain®, Rheumatism, etc. IT IS POSITIVELY AIILIfiST TREATMENT OTEAETFGR IEAXLY* WOMEN, DISMSED-LUNGS, DISEASED KIDNEYS, HtSORDEMED NERVES GENERAL DEBILITY, and a host of other conditions too numerous to mention. It is a well proven fact that medicine alone fails in a great majority of chronic diseases. In fact, many patients have poured enough strong medicine down their throats to ruin a healthy person's constitution, much more an unhealthy one. That course of treatment which restores the vital functions to a healthy condition with the least medicine is the best one, and such a course of treatment is RESUSCITATION. Its cures are myriad where medicine has utterly failed, kud one of the chief advantages of this treatment is that but few treatments as a rule are required. It acts with wonderful rapidity. It leaves no dregs in the system, nothing but restored health and vigor. I shall remain in Washington for several months yet. Com© and have your case examined. Consultation free of charge.
