Advertisers will make a note of this fact! Thursday) June 11,1885. Upon the fourth page of this paper Is lobe found the celebrated story; “Driven From Sen to Bor,” a pathetic production, in truth, endorsed by the people, press and clergy, and a sermon by the Rev. T. DcWitt TalmagC on the first page, under the heading, '‘•Woman’s Wages.” The great story, “Driven From Sea to Sea,” began in the Democrat May 21, 1885, (Vol. XVI, No. 2), and will, be continued till the close of its twen-ty-eight chapters. Back numbers of the paper containing the first chapters can be had at this ollice. The Ohio Prohibitionists will nominate a full State ticket at Springfield, July 1 and 2. Wisconsin and Michigan will be the next .two additions to the Democratic column of the States. Teie President is said to be chockfull of “human nature and business.” That is a good combination. Ohio lias, a “Voters’ Union,” which was organized to secure the adoption .ofprohibitory amendments.* a Kicuahd Scott, a Xew York dyspeptic, stole $100,000 from the bank of which lie was teller, and skipped. Herbert F. Beecher, son of the Rev. Henry Ward, has been appointed collector of customs at Port Townsend. _ A Pro*'. Riley recommends the . seventeen.' year locust, known as the cicada, as an article of diet. “Rats! Rat}!!” . The Democratic editors of Indiana will convene at Lake Maxiukuekee, July 9th and 10th. Those who can’t attend should send a hand. ^ A special to the Chicago Times from ‘Washington City says the President has more influence there than any onCelse. Well, “we should smile!” It is estimated that within the next three months 15,000 post-offices will pass from Republican to Democratic bands. Good enough. Ferdinand Ward,] the “speculator” of the Grant firm to !;he extent of‘several millions, lias been indicted for grand larceny. It was, indeed “grand.”* __ i_ One rigid, truly divine, upon which Americans are agreed, is that the people should rule—ami they arc triumphant. They generally right the wrongs. > As observing politician says that the ortlv difference between those going in and out of office is mainly that the former are sworn in and the latter go out swearing.

“Wuat is Profanity asks a newspaper writer.* It is the remarks made by a Republican when he is informed that the efliee he has held for the past 20 years has been given to a Democrat. ~ A recent writer on the Utah prob- - lent asserts that “the history of Mormon revelations is that they are citing to until the pressure becomes too , strong, then they are given up.’’ The Mormons must go. Hits. CiAisriEifu is worth about' ,.1450,000, which nets an income, at 4 per cent, of $18,000 a year. Her pension from Congress is $5,000 annually making her entire resources $23,000 a year. _, The Chicago Current is pleased to remark that “there is .honorable wealth and dishonorable wealth, hut that the trouble, since the war, is that the one would buy just as much as the other.” Or all the States in the great wheat belt, Michigan is the only one which gives the promise of an average yield, this season. .Every indication paints to a tailing oil* in the igeneral yield of about 140,000*000 bushels. The Indiana bureau of statistics says that underdraining not only decreases the tendency to malarial diseases, but in that state has been known in five years to increase the yield of corn and wheat 50 per cent. Higgins, the widely-known appointment clerk in the treasury department, is the right man in the right place, lie indeed tills a longfelt want, as an exchange says by supplying the wants of Democratic adherents. ___ JIekeaktek it will not be practicable for Ohio employers to pay their workmen in groceries, provisions or dry goods at fancy prices. A law which goes into cfl'cct in that State during the present month requires that all wages shall be paid,weekly in cash.: __ . By the way, says,he Evansville Journal, we have R on good authority • that Mr. Kleiner does hot intend toremove to Dakota as supposed, but Will make this his - home as heretofore. His interests iu Dakota are in such form that he cau attend to them without removing there adds the Journal.

IIox. Geokoe \V. Julian,- of this State, who was the candidate of the abolition party for Vice-President in 1852 on the ticket with J. P. Hale, has been appointed Surveyor General of New Mexico by a Democratic President. Times change and men change with them. They say that Mr. Blaine is still keeping his ear to the ground. Wonder how he likes the rumblings from St. Paul, Minn. Last fall the city 'gave Blaine a majority of 1,100. Last week a Democratic mayor was elected by a majority of 3,600, and the rest of the field swept as clean in proportion.

The Bell telephone company having given it# patrons notice of its intention to quit business if the courts uphold the constitutionality of the law fixing rates, the Overland telephone company has resolved to secure the plant. The Overland seems to think there’s money in the rate of rental as- fixed by law. Berlyinc to the remark of the Westville Indicator that, "it will take the President, at the present rate, just sixty years to turn the rascals out," the Indianapolis Sentinel says: ‘‘Yes, just about. There is a big lot of thepi. The ex-op has had unusual advantages—rich Bepublieau-ioil to gi'ow in. Hayes planted, (Arthur watered, and the devil gave the increase.7’ ___' : “The bixsiress condition of the country is very clearly defined hy the Pittsburg Dispatch in the following paragraph: ‘•Lossof confidence and previous undue inflation of prices have been the main cause of the depression since "81. Prices of almost all articles ate now ^lowti to.a point previously not known since the wai‘, and confidence is returning because there is nothing, apparently, to shake it further." The New York Tribune asserts that “the Republican politicians who have any sense, know that the patronage is only a harm and an obstacle to the party.” potisiderlng the woe t hat has weighed upon the Republicans, including the Tribune, says the New York Sun,, since the Republicans lost control of the patronage, it would appear that there are mighty few Republican politicians who have any sejnse, if the Tribute is x-iglit in its assertion. The new Prohibitory law which the Republicans of Kansas fondly hoped was to put a stop to all beer and liquor business in the State has been declared unconstitutional. The law clothed the County Attorneys with unlimited power over witnesses and allowed them the heavy fee of #25 on each count on the conviction of a beer or liquor seller. The Court decides that a law Which gives a. prosecuting officer judicial powers and tempts him to unxisual virulence of prosecution bv rewards for conviction is not only opposed to. the Constitution but to justice. Cov. Martin, who signed the law, pointed out its uuconstitiuionality while yet giving it his approval. Of course Republicans arc happy over Logan’s final ti'iuiuph, but that Logan’s election to the United States Senate is a .cause for rejoicing seems strange, llad a person told our Republican irietxd last suuxmer or fall that Logan would not only be defeated for the Vice Presidency, but that only by a miraclc^aftcr a five month’s, contest, would he be x-etux-ned to the United States Senate, that person would have been denounced as a crank; yet truly is such the ease. The Republicans a few months ago, not only wanted evciwthing. Now they rejoice, not because they secured the pudding, but because by hard fighting they only saved the bag in which it was cooked.

The agricultural bureau is being “weeded out,'’ as the following will -show : “Dr. Coring, lato commissioner of agriculture, is rapidly suffering in public esteem by reason of his refusal to answer charges against his administration of that office. The new commissioner found the appropriation exhausted, with nothing to show' for the money except a lot of comparatively worthless seeds which were paid for at live and six;times their market value. Dr. Lorihg spent weeks last year in stumping several States for Blaine, and, it is suspicioned, the funds of the department were lavishly used to boom ‘Blaine’s march to tho white-house.' It is very probable that the who.le matter will be investigated by C’o’u ress at next winder's session.’’ It is said by a Washington correspondent that at the uext session of Congress there will be an amendment to the Constitution ottered providing for a new method for the election of United State Senators. It is proposed to scud the election of these gentlemen to the people. It is believed that this Is the only way that the standard of the Senate can be raised to anything like what it was in the old times and prevent the corporations from buying nearly every seat in that body. The Senate is made up of men who have no ability as speakers. It is not believed that it would be possible to elect this class of men if the elections were sent to the people. Thou candidates would be obliged to go upon tho stump and discuss public questions if they desired to secure an election. It is always difficult to corrupt a State convention. It is a notorious faet that the Legislatures of the rations States ate frequently controlled by corrupt meaus. Of course, the entire corporation element in the Senate would oppose any such amendment. No such measures could be passed through the Senate without very thorough agitation of the question so as to create an overwhelming popular sentiment iu its favor. Subscribe for the Democrat.

Last Friday forenoon, at 10 o’clock, Sherman Minnis was killed by Joint Butcher, at Gadget's station on the I. & K. railroad, in Gibson county about 15 miles from this place. The murder was a tragical ending ol a grudge; a quarrel at a ratification meeting in Oakland City last November causing the origin of the trouble. Butcher was going away from the railroad with an empty wagon, having unloaded cross ties, and Minnis was going in with a load, when they met about one hundred yards from the station. Butcher was heard to remark he would not let Minnis .pass, and .he did refuse to give the road, Minnis driving out to one side and stopping. Hard words passed between the nv», and Butcher jumped from his wagon,knife iu hand. When Minnis jumped off his wagon, Butcher nished upon him and stabbed him seven or eight times, and he fell heavily to the ground. A brother of Minnis while attacking Butcher with a elul) was slightly cut with the murderous knife. Bystanders prevented further trouble. Minnis’ body was allowed to reiuaih to await the arrival of the Coroner. Butcher, after taking a-look at his dying victim, got on his wagon drove a short distance turned his team from the road and tied to the wot ds. lie was pursued by a Sheriff's posse to Stucky’% farm, three miles from Oakland City. After firing at the Sheriff's party, Butcher sent a bullet to his own brain before they reached him. lie lived an hour. His body wtjs taken home. Both men belonged to prominent families of that neighborhood. Minnis was a brother of an ex-trustee of Barton township, Gibson county. lie was only twenty year.-iold, and leaves a wife and two children. Butcher was single and lived with his mother, who is a widow in lair circumstances. He was a nephew of J. II. McConnell of Oakland City. UR. yuvxg’s DEATH. A most lamentable accident occurred Wednesday morning (3d inst.) in Harrison township, Knox county. Dr. Young and Garrett Bobertson, of Monroe City, were out gunning itt the woods within five miles of this place. When about to return home Dr. Young took his seat in the vehicle, holding the reins of the horses, when Mr. Bobertson held a gun toward him for him to place in the vehicle. Unfortunately at that moment the horses frightened suddenly, throwing Air. Bdbertson oil'his guard, and one of the wheels struck the gun, which was disehared full in the face of Dr. Young, killing him instantly. The accident created the profo.undest sorrow. Dr. Young was one of the most prominent citizens of lvnox conuty, aged about thirty-five years, and unmarried. The wound inflicted was a terrible one. The doctors face was horribly disfigured. Mr. Bobertson, the unfortunate man’s companion, is nearly crazed with

grtet. - Dr» Young' hail practiced medicine in llarrison township some six or eight years. He was very well to’du in this world’s goods, owning a good farm in Kansas. Deceased has one relative in Harrison township, a sister, Mrs. Goss, llis body was taken to Gosport, lad., for interment, ieaviug Vincennes at two 'O’clock Thursday afternoon, the inquest having been held, Wednesday. KNOX COUNTY TltAliEDY. Jl'NK 4. Groteguth, the Kdwardsport, Knox county wife murderer, is in jail at Vincennes. He says they quarreled about chickens and pigs being in the garden, and in the wrangle that ensued he threw her. Groteguth says that the fall stunned his wife, and that he also choked her. Leaving her lie on the ground he went into the small room of the new part of the house and taking the razor out of the box on the safe, went back. Mrs. G. was still stretched out on the ground. Stooping down he applied the keen edge of the razor to her throat. Site grasped his hand, but was.nnable to prevent his accomplishing ids bloody purpose. The murderer goes back on all former statements to the effect that the woman cut her own throat by taking hold of his hand, lie say s he pressed hard and fully intended that the cut should wind up her earthly existence. STABB1XU AFFRAY AT UNION. On last Saturday afternoon, Joe Snyder and Pleasant Hightower became involved in a quarrel near the school house in Union. Words passed between them, and Snyder rushed at Hightower with a piece of scantlin and struck bun two or three times. Hightower then cut Suyder with a knife, striking him in each shoulder, and serving an artery in his ucek. Hightower, followed by Snyder, retreated to Joe Phillip’s drug store. 100 yards from the school house, where further demonstrations were prevented. ’ DOINGS IX DUBOIS. A special to the Evansville Journal, of Monday, says. “The Keeves, who murdered John Gardner, the detective, last Monday, were yesterday (Friday) seeu quietly planting corn on their farm, one standing guaid with a rifle, defying arrest by officers. Cox, the deputy-sheriff who was shot bv the Keeves, is yet alive, but there is scarcely a possibility that he can recover. He is totally paralyzed below the arms, from the effects of a ball through the spine.” SechkVaky Whitney has just discovered that the government has paid *900,000for repair on a wooden navy vessel, the original cost of which could not have been more than onethird that amount. However, “the cash in the treasury balances to a cent.’,’—[Chicago Times.

A Praiseworthy Institution. The Reform School for boys at j Plainfield Iml., is an institution ofi great benefit. From the Plainfield Progress we condense the following regarding the institution : It is not a juvenile prison. Good food and plen- i ty of it, pleasant rooms, clean and j comfortable beds, a chance for eduea- | tion and cncoimigement to industry,; free play grounds and play rooms, abundance of exeercises, cheerful surroundings, and the best moral and religions training—these are some of the advantages offered to boys, who often have never had half a chance in life uutij they reach the institution. About two hundred go out of the institution every year, and their places are occupied with new boys. Where do they go? "Whenever the Superintendent, Prof. Charlton, can have his way they go to the country instead of returning to their city friends and city haunts to be enticed back by the old temptations. And from hundreds of the boys who have left, letters arc constantly received telling of their success, which they never fail to trace to the hew start they gained and influence exercised over them while inmates of the school. - Another of the promised articles on the great industries of America will be given in the July Harper's, the subject this time being the making of “A Silk Di-ess.” The Philadelphia ladies of the “Women’s Silk Culture Association,” who are endeavoring to promote the growing of silk-worms in this country, speak of it as “America’s hew industry,” but as a matter of fact silk-grow-ing w as attempted in the new world soon after its discovery, and all through our colonial history schemes in this direction were numerous. The moris multicaulis mania of about 1837 was the most extraordinary outburst of the silk fever, and some amusing.stories are toldof it. There is nowlittle silk-growing in this country, but silkmanufacturiug has become a leading industry, so that more than a third of all the silks w tun in this'cetijitry are made here. The Harper paper will describe each step in the process of manufacture, with many illustrations, and ladies may leant from it something as to the differences between gpod and bad silk which may help them in their shopping.

Fiokland, 11 MoAfw stivct, Atlanta, Ga., aty! from her own Ifins a/Vonstitulion reporter learned the following^ppalling story: Several months>kgo she ls'caine almost liotally blind anddeaf.ami could not taste anything except salt, ller lames become the seat of Inti nse^imn, her Joints were swollen ami painful, and eventually her whole body ami limbsbeeatA ©covered withsplotches and small sores.

All treatment from physicians and the use of medicine seemed powerless. ller disease was tdood poison and rheumatism. As she now seemed "ell and hearty the reporter asked what had wrought such a wonderful change. ' “I used a medicine recommended l»y a frlcnd^she replied, “and before one bottle had been taken i began to see and hear. The worn! bottle relieved all rheumatic pains and Improved my appetite. When 1 had completed the use of six bottles my evesight and hearing were Hilly restored, sense of taste returned, uil blotches disappeared, sores all healed, and my strength and flesh restored. 1 now feel as well as 1 ever did, and my friends as well as myself were astounded.” “What was the medicine?” asked the reporter. “Hotaide blood Balm—IV IV IV—was the great remedy that acted so powerfully on my disease and cured me. 1 never experienced any unpleasant. symptom©from its use, and its action is so quick that it surprises all.*' The reporter then sought a physician who following lines: “1 examinesl the above ease of blood poison and rheumatism, before and after being cured and certify to the main facts as above stated, and must acknowledge that the IV 11. iV effected a most wonderful cure in this well-known ease.

METAL POISON lam a coppersmith by trade, and during a series of years my arms (being bare when at work have absorbed a wonderful amount of metal poison. Having & scrofulous tendency from my youth, the small particles of copper and brass would get into the sores, and by this the poison was conveyed into my blood till my whole system became infected. I was t reated with the old remedies of mercury and iodide potassium. Salivation followed, my teeth are all loose in my head, my digestive organs deranged, ami I have ln^en helpless in bet! for over a year with mercurial rheumatism. My joints were all swollen, and I lost the use of my arms and legs,and became helpless as an infant. My sutler legs became so' intense that it was tm|H»ssible for me to rest. The doctors advised me to go to the city* hospital for treatment. This I could not bear. A friend, who has proved a friend indeed urged mo to try Swift’s Specific, believing it would cure me. Others discouraged me, but I secured ft few bottles and have now taken two dozen bottles. The first effect of the medicine was to bring the jpoison to the surface, and I broke out all over m running sores. They soon disappeared, and my skin cleared oft*. My knees, which had become twice their natural size/ have resumed t heir usual size, and are su pple as of yore. M y arms and hands are all right again, and can use them without pain. The entire disease has left, all parts of the body save two ulcers on mv wrists, which are healing rapidly. 1 am weak from long confinement, but I have the use of all my limbs. This medicine is bringing me out of the greatest trial of my llfy, and I cannot find words sufficient to express my appreciation of its virtues, and the gratitude I feel that I ever heard of it. PKTr.it E. Love, Augusta, Ga. Jan 9,1885. MALARIAL POISOH. The drouth in Southwest < Georgia last spring dried up the wells, and we wen; compelled to use water from the creek on the plantation. The result was that all were troubled with chills and fever. I carried with me several bottles of Swift’s Specific, and as long as 1 took it 1 had perfect health. As soon as I ceased taking it. 1, like the rest, was afflicted with chills. When I resumed its use, I was all right again. We have used it in our family as an antidote for malaria poison for two or three years, and have never known it to fail in a single Instance. W. C. Furlow. Sumter Co., Ga., Sept. 11, 1884.
