Organize for fho coming .canvass. Senator Vohuees' mofhor died at Earl Park, Ind., on the 4t 3i inst., aged nearly eighty years. The Worthingtou Times has begun its thirty-first year. It is prosperous, newsy and neat. It is again reported that the president is about to marry. Wonder if the Senate will demand all the papers in thq case?_ What is the matter with Hanna? lion. Baylcss W. Hanna is coining home. The Argentine Republic will have another ministerfropa the United States,_ It is suggested ; hat the Offensive partisan is the partisan who is on the <«therside. Everybody ruderstands that and hence the burst of laughter when the term is used. Success at the County election, next November, depends in a great measure upon the selection of good, wellknown men for candidates on the Democratic ticket. Notwithstanding the fact that there are now •over 52,000 workingmen aulKa strike in this country, the number is only as one to 120 of the working population. Titt fatal tiring done liv the deputy sheriffs at East St. Louis is shown by testimony to have been unprovoked. Now, who is to suffer, these poor minious of the law, or the cowardly corporations who pushed them forward? _ Mr. Morrison's bill for the reduction of taxation is “a conspiracy, against American industry,” say the organs of the tariff motmply. Some people in this country have heard that assertion so often that ihey actually believe it. i The Democratic voters have learned a lesson from the result of the township elections. Combinations may be attempted by the Republican managers, but’the conspirators will hardly be .able to deliver the goods in November.

Mr. Blaines friends are declining for him the ltepublicati presidential nomination for 1888. This frame is not new. Of course the design is simply to feel the puhl|e pulse. The pre.fW is expected' to splat now, and tints the ball will he set rolling. Tjie coroner's inquest at East St. LouiS over the bodies of the citizens who were killed by the deputy sheriffs say in their verdict that] tiie shooting bv the latter was unprovoked and was not justified. The deputies will be indicted agd tried far the outrage. Okuanizatiox, complete and thorough, is the key to success at the eotniug election. The Republicans will “pare no effort nor will jhey fail to resort tj> any means to defeat one or more of the Democratic candidates for county offices. If the Democrats are defeated it will be their own fault. Organize now and go to work with a will. Thohoioh organization is needed in our party, lor our tijieii are somewhat demoralized politically, and the seductive doctrines of “independentism” have been assiduously instilled 3to many good men by enemies of the party. Good, earnest, steady, judicious work is needed to eradicate these seeds of disatfectiou and bring our men back to the fold. A man who thought that he had discovered the secret of the longevity Of women recommended that those who desired to attain a rij>e old age ought to become ballet dancers. It is likely, however, that he forgot it was easier for them to marry survivors of the war. Nothing will insure longer Mfe, as 20,000 women are drawing pensions whose husbands were participants of the war of 1812. ■ The Princeton Clarion “sizes up” Mr. Kleiner as follows: “In J. J. Kleiner President Cleveland can find a walking illustration ef “innocuous dcscutude,” the phr.ise that made famous his "rent message to the senate.” Here is another; “If there has ever beeu a representative "front *ho first district who exceeded J. J. Kleiner hi his capacity to do nothing for his constituents, we fail to recall his name at this moment.” An exchange wisely says: .Selfishness will kill a town. Liberality and pablic spirit will build it up. When men serve their cuds without regard to the City’s interest they strike a Wow at its progress. Between a town with mouey and another with enterprise, we would select the latter. Moneyed men at'e of tittle interest to a town, unless they are of the right kind, unselfish, generous and public spirited. Money ulon; will not make a town, or cause business to and thrive. Behind it must ing. wide-awake, with p«

AGGRESSIVE FIGHTS. The managers of the Democratic Central Commit tec of the Democratic county of Shelby, agreed with their Republican brethern before the election to run the campaign on the stillhunt plan. That is to say, the Democratic managers thought that Democrats had to vote for Democratic candidates and they-would make a clean sweep by “talkin'” nice to ltcpublieansand being careful to say nothing that wo^ild hurt their political feelings or arouse their political prejudices. The Republican managers thought the same thing, no doubt, and thus the campaign proceeded. The result shows that by the nice “tall in’” referred to the Democratic and Republican managers both together succeeded in bringing out nearly every Republican voter in the county, and when they condescended to see how the Democratic voters weie getting

along it was learned that about one fourth of them forgot there was any election, or did not care enough about it to go to the polls. The returns show the Democrats were badly defeated all over the county, not doing more than half as’much as they usually have done. The Sheljby villc Dein:crat, speaking about the matter, says: “Some of our Democrats ate visionary and possessed of two much of the fluid of mugwiimpery. They often imagine that the reformation of the world depends upon them, and that it must he accomplished in a week.” We think our contemporary is mistaken in the last sentence quoted above. The object of tho, class of Democrats referred to is altogether personal. It is to get office for themselves or some personal friends. Such is always the object of mugwuinpery and it is un-Democratic. The Democrat further says in the article quoted from: “Hereafter the Democrat wants no person to.eome around whining for a quiet and still hunt. It believes that all is made bv an aggressive campaign, and hereafter it proposes to pay no attention to timidDemoerats who beg l'or Republicans and insist that aggressiveness will injure the party. Experiences teaches that party lines must be drawn and that agitation is essential in bringing about enthusiasm. Parties need reforming, but it will be some time before alee?tions can be run on. Sunday school principles and wind.” •' It is no doubt true that the way to be a Democrat is to be one. We hope next time to hear better news from old Shelby. .. ‘Tin: Democratic State Central Committee met at Indianapolis on last Thursday. A large number of prominent members of the party from different localities of the State were present, and the general condition of politics was discussed. The recent tow ujship elections were not.regarded with alarm, and certainly the following statement does not.seem to be particularly discouraging: Secretary Riley had received reports of township elections from 88 of the 92 counties in the State, showing thje total number of Democratic trustees elected -108, and Republicans 477. Estimating oil the lour counties not re-' ported, lie linds that the total will stand ;>04 Democrats, 497 Republi

cans, xz independents. in t!>c tf8 counties (lie losses ami' gains were tjg follows: Demoorats'lost 47 and gained 38; Republicans gained 47 and lost 37, and while (he Republicans gained 10 from the Democrats, tlje 1 liter secured jfftvmthcln 'ependenik thus making their net loss in 88 counties but 9. Considering the discontent that always following the inauguration of a new administration, chiefly arising from disappointments in getting offices, it i:^ rather remarkable that Republican gains were not much larger. The time for holding the State convention was the subject of general interest, the weight of opinion being in favor of an early date. At all events, the belief was general, that the Democratic convention should bo held before the Repupublican convention. The committee finally adjourned willmut deciding the question, to be called together by the chairman at his discretion. There seemed to be no fears tlmi the Democrats would be unable to carry the State iu November. Gladstone, one of the grandest men of the age, in a grand speech li as said much which fittingly applies to tho government and the governed in free America. The following paragraph we quote as the panacea for the ills which labor is Irving to cure by stntuatory enactment: “I ask that we learn to rely less on mere written stipulations and more on those better stipulations written on the heart of the mind of man. 1 :jsk U‘»t we should apply to Ireland the happy experience we have gained iu Eiq land and Scotland, where a course of generations have taught us, not. as a dream or theory, but as a matter of practice ami 1Mb, that the best and surest foundations we can find to build on is the foundation afforded by the affections and and will of man and it is thus ivy the decree of the Almighty fib«t,“far more than by any other method, we may be enabled to secure at once the social happiness, the power and the permanence of the empire.” However, if he could have said ‘Tepublb” instead of ‘empire,” at the close, how much approbation it would meet with in a government of, by and for the people. Louisville’s Republican Postmistress. A gentlemen who is now in business in this city, and who is a man of integrity, went to Mrs. Thompson seven years ago and asked her for a positron in the Postoffiec. After talking to him very pleasantly for a time she said : “I presume, of course, you arc a Republican.” Ho replied, “Xo, madarae, I am a Democrat.” Her entire manner changed, and she said, ‘•Tour endorsements are the bent I ever saw, but 1 can’t think of appointing any one but Republicans to oflee. , [Louisville Times.]

SOLID TRUTH. Senator Z. 1$. Vance, of North Carolina, has scut us' a copy of his aide speech on the.civil service law. Mr. Vance declares himself, in “the broadest aud most comprehensive, term, a party man,” not because lie believes “there are no evils inseparably connected with the party organization,” but because be “believes most earnestly that parties are iudispeusible to the existence of liberty, and that a government by party is the only way in which there can be givernmont by the people.” Mr. Vance also said: “The history of the world is replete with the lessons which confirms tlie truth of Madison’s words that parties are indeed ‘the natural offspring of liberty.’ Freedom, truly, is the priceless gem which- is crystalized in the fierce heats of party strife. That strife must contimie forever, if it.be that freedom is to live forever.” sir. Vance truly said that “She corner stones of our institutions are:

First—The eligibility of all qualified freemen to hold office, and therefore the right to seek office at the source of power. Second—A brief term of office. Third—A direct amt immediate responsibility of all elective officers to tiie people. Fourth—A mediate and indirect responsibility of all appointed officers to the people through the direct and immediate responsibility of the appointing power.” «He quoted Tucker's Blaekstone as follows: “The limitation of power, the frequency of elections by the body of the people, the capacity of every individual citizen to be elected to any office to which his talents and integrity may commend him, and the responsibility of every public agent to his constituents, the people, for his conduct, are the distinguishing features of a representative Democracy! ^Senator Vnuec aptly asks: How Win a President “expect his administration to prove a success when conducted in great part by his enemies, who would be delighted with its failure ? How is it. expected that he can unearth the frauds and expose the corruptions necessarily ineidei.t to a long lease of power, while surrouuded by those who commit them, if any such exist, and who have the keys to the requisite information?” In the selection of government employes Mr. Vauee said : “The only sensible way to.obtain good employes anywhere in any business is to select them yourself a ml try them. If they should prove good, keep them; if they should prove bad, discharged them.” Concluding his speech. Senator Vance said : “The mass of the people on both sides demand an open fight and upright and downright dealing after the fight. * * » They believe that, other things being equal, in the bestowal of favors that man should give preference to his friends over Ids enemies.” * * * a.ml lastly, I believe that as good material for all civil officials is to be found in the Democratic party as in any other, and that it is the duty of a Democratic administration to select that material, as the implements of reform.” Titis doctrine is that ot the people. Then the people are “spoilsmen.” So be it. They prefer the Democracy of Jefferson and Jackson to “Ilamiltonianism.”

The New York Xatiui gives some utcrestiug figures showing thejigc at which men of great ability are likely to manifest their force: When the Civil War broke cut iit 1801, Lincoln, Hamlin anil Andrew Johnson were caeh 52 yea re old ; Fremont and Douglas were 48; Seward was60; Chase, 52 ; Cameron, 62; Stanton, 46; Greely and Sumner .each 50: \\lisou. 41); Fessenden, 55 ; Trumbull. 18: Wade. 61; “Tliad” Stevens, 69; Banks, 45; Hendricks,42; Curtin, 41; John Sherman, Minton and Colfax Jack 38; Grant, 39 ; Teeuniseh Sherman, 41; McClellan, 34; Hancock, 37 ; ■Sheridan, 30; Seymour, 51; Tilth n, 57 ; Hayes, 38; Garfield. 29; Logan, 35; Lamar, 30. Here are thirty-two men. then prominent in politics, or destined to prominence in the field, of whorn a full third had completed their 50th rear. Kven cutting down the figures by introduction in the list of a few younger men who did not become prominent at once, the average is about 46 years. In America from 46 to, say, 66 is the time when most men* make their record. Jay Gould,"in a recent^intcrvieV, stated that General Master Workman Powdciiy was in sympathy with the riotous elements of the. strikers. The pcop'e have long known and regarded Mr. Gould as an oppressor of his employes and a gambler in the stock* of tlm roads which he controls,—a thief who only escapes merited punishment through the influence of his stolen millions, would be a better term perhaps;—by his latest utterance he brands himself as a wilful liar. Itle knows better. Mr. Powderly, and the organization of which lie is the head, opposes strikes; arbitration, a peaceful settlement of all differences between capital and labor, is the corner stone or the order. The declaration referred to is as silly as his prediction that the order will soon break down with its own weight. Wait till it docs, Mr. Gould. Tins longest word in the English or ^rather Welsh, language says the St. .James Gazette, lias, after a long period of oblivion been once more exhumed. It is Llanfairpwllgwngyllgertrobgllgereli wymbyllgigerbwllzauttvsiliogogogoch. This awful word of seventy-two lettlers and twentytwo syllables, the name of a village in Wales, constituted the subject of a lecture lately given by the Kev. J. King. M. A., at the Museum, Berwick, in which he showed that it means: “St. Mary's white hazel pool, near the turning pool, near the whirlpool, very near the pool by Lhintsilio, fronting the rocky islet of Gogo.” We will give a year’s subscription to the Democrat to the |>crsoii sending mi a •ori-eet pronunciation of the above word I t

MONEY AND LABOR. We arc in receipt of Mon. AV. D. By titan's recent speech on the silver question. It is 'able, eloquent, and shows groat research. Mr. Bynum tied a ml “in favor of the free eoipage of silver because lie believed it to be si palpable violation of the constitution at d of the rights of the States ahd the people to in any wise limit or restrict the coinage of either metal.” However, he quoted statistics showing that nearly 200,000,000 of people use both gold and silver, 100,000,000 gold, while 800.000,000 use silver. Then, be showed oy exhaustive compilation of ligures,chiefly for 1883aud 1884, that the balance against the nations using gold was $093,449,217, while tin* balance against those using the double standard was only $169.433,102. and the nations using the silver standard had a balance in their fevor of $24.1,231,404. In pursuant^ of this argument he presented tables which show that “the nations using

gom as a stannum pay tne initeii States each year about $170,000,000, anil the nations using gold and silver about $1,000,000, while we pay to the nations using silver about $2.1,000,000. We are'constantly gaining gold from the gold nations and giving silver t;o the silver rations, and yet the advocates of suspension would have us t!lift* that it was our gold instead of our silver that we are iu danger of losing.” * * “For one,” said Mr. Bynum, “1 am in favor of opening the mints and letting the bright stream flowthrough the channels of trade and commerce unimpeded until ‘idle money becomes as unproductive as idle labor,”’ * * * “Out laws relating to finances and revenue, trade and commerce, must be so adjusted as to give the greatest I advantage to those who toil in the iiehls and hi the mills, iu the factories and in the mines. Our advance as a people depends upon the prosperity of our laboring classes, and our security as a nation upon the respect they have for its laws and institu- ! tiom>.” lie. Bynum's forcible, dignified and | patriotic appeal was for the people, and, its well said, for “the people’s money”—silver. His speech comI mantled close attention front the House. Iu isonclusion lie said-* |“It is because of the shrinkage of values as well as thedertriment to labor that 1 raise my voice and utter a protest I against this crusade Hint has been in ; the past so successfully waged in be- ! half of the moneyed interests, to the utter and complete destruction ef the welfare of the people.” “The people of the West are iu debt; their farms, their homes and in many insta- ces, their beds are mortgaged. They have been paying exhorbitant rates of interest to the Ejjst until they are impoverished. The prices of their products have fallen, their lauds shrunk in value, until they stagger beneath the weight of their burdens. They are energetic, laborious and patriotic. During the days when the nation’s body was bleeding fro:u~iehundred wounds and its life trcmblingeiu the balance they poured out their richest blood and treasure that it ni ght be saved. They faced the deal; - ealing grape and canister upon a hundred fields that this government might be preserved as one great and indissoluble nation, land they now ask in the majesty of its strength and power'its great 1 strong arm -ball not be raised to at one blow strike them down to want and beggiiry.” | By the way. Mr. Bynum will no | doubt be renominated for Congress iu i tlie Indianapolis district.

lion. YV. F. Townsend. [Evansville Tribune News.] The Petersburg Democrat of yesj 1 onlay aunoumes the withdrawal of | linn, \V. l'\ Town-end IVont the Coni "regional race of the First district, i This action i- prompted, as suggested j in his letter,.by the disposition of his juwn friends, who wished the jfield | left open to the other distinguished j genilemen, who have been mentioned. ! This course is all the more commendable in Mr. Townsend, as l’ike county had already led elf bv {riving her instructions for him. and he had good i assurances of a substantial following in every county of the District. This unselfish act of Mr. Townsend will I not be forgotten by the party, jin its 1 future work, and we predict for him a formidable following in ease a "dark horse" should become neces- : <ary in the Convention. The Dkmociiat, in commenting upon his yvith- | dravval, thus closes aud editorialj: ! "As an orator lie is second to none in Indiana. Iiis abilities place iiim In ’ the front ranks of the young, vigorous and progressive Democracy, and bis star is sure to shine resplendent in the political horoscope at no distant day." This leaves the field in the uninterrupted possession of two distinguished gcutlcmen, who have made some ellort in theirowu candidacy, and one or t wo others who may be pressed by their friends to enter the race.

For six long, dreary years I have l>een a great sufferer from a complaint of my kidneys, which fulled to be cured by physicians t>radvertised remedies. I began to feel I could never secure relief, as I had spent two hundred and fifty dollars without success. . The disease was so excruciating that it often prevented me from performing my daily duty. I was advised to try the efficacy of B. P.

4 Remarkable Cure of a Horse. Col. Jtimes Ii. Fleming, a prominent grocery merchant, a member of the firm of Fleming A lioftoii, Augusta, Ua., makes the following statement of the treatment of a valuable horse with Swift’s Specific: J n the fifcll of 188J 14md a valuable colt taken with a severe ease of pinkeye, which resulted In a most fearful case of blood poisoning I have ever seen. After eight or nine months ;>f doctoring with every remedy that I could hear of, 1 despaired of a cure. At this time Lhe horse was unable to move, Ik cause of swollen limbs. Ills right hind leg was as large as a man’s body, and had on it over forty running sores, llehiid also a number >f large sores on his body and other limbs. He was a most pitiable looking object, and I was advised to end his sufferings with the ihot-gun. lie was a valuable animal and 1 iid not want to lose him. After racking my brain in search for another remedy more efficacious, 1 thought of Swift’s Specific. 1 knew t was Invaluable to the human family us a flood purifier, and why should it not be for he animal us well? 1 did not hesitate, but tent last July to Atlanta for a supply. I began the treatment with 4 os. of S. S. 8. Mid 4 o*. of water three times a day. This I sontinued for a week. Then I increased the lose to ti osft. of each, and continued for a week. Then I Increased to 8 oz. and run it a week, when 1 went Imck to Co/,, again. The •esul* was that at the end ot the first week .he horse had a fair appetite, which he had mt had since his sickness. At the end of the iccond week even groat improvement was ipparent. for many of the sores were healing lieely, and the horse manifested a detire to move about. At tbeondof the third veek he began to show gain In flesh and had fill appetite. The swelling had al>out disap>eured. 1 used In ell about 15 bottles of Swift’s *peclfie,und when 1 quit its use the horse had miy four small sores left on him, and tl.ev umled up immediately. In August last ail symptoms of the disease Missed uway, and up to date no signs of the eturn of the trouble have made their appear* nice, and tlie horse has done a mule’s work >n my farm. I regard It one of the most remarkable cures have ever known. Thus this great medicine urs proven a 1mx>u to the animal as well us to he human raw. 4 AS. L. FLJKMINCI. Augusta, G«u, Jan.0, 1885.
