THE 1'IHST DISTRICT I’lGIIT. Vlit Best Wilde in the State by the Democrats. It will not bo denied that the democrats of this district, with the second largest city in the state Within its limits, and the narrow margin of 454 democratic majority to its credit, had at least as many, difficulties to contend with iu the recent campaign than any other of the democratic districts of Indiana. Yet the returns, official and estimated, prove that the First district shows less republican gains than any democratic district in the state. In veritication of this claim we submit the following comparative figures: District. Rem. Maj. 1892. First . 451 Mi R Second Third ... Fourth Fifth . .. Seventh.. Eighth.. Tenth ... Eleventh. Twelfth 1.909 . 2,971 8.981 1,068 . 1,818 1,622 42 . 753 3,065 Thirteenth. 1,910 eft- Rep. U. 1891. Gain 2,200 test’d) 2,654 1,650 8,619 659 3,630 193 3.274 1,700 2,758 3.000 8.042 2,200 8,822 3.000 8,942 .3,500 4,253 2,900 5,965 2,800 4,740 The Sixth and Ninth districts were republican two years ago. It will be seen that even tuough defeated the democrats of this district put up by far the best fight of any district in the state, a result due to the superb organization effected by «he chairman of the county committees of the yariuuscounties who worjied in harmony from the beginning to the end of the campaign; to the intelligent and vigorous services of the democratic papers of the district which were never more ably conducted, and to the splendid record and effective personal campaign made by H«n.

Marvelous Results. From a letter written by Rev J. Guilderman, of Dimondale, Mich., we are preroitted to make this extract: “I have no hesitation in recommending Dr. King’s New Discovery, as the results were almost marveldtis the case of my wife While I was pastor of the Baptist Church at Rives Junction she was brought down with pneumonia succeeding La Grippe. Terrible pardkysms ot couching would last hours with little interruption and it seemed as il she could not survive them. A. friend ieoommended Dr, King’s New Discovery; it was quick in its work and highly satisfactory in penults.” Trial bottles free at J. R, Adams & Son. Regular size 50c and $1.00 The Sunuy South. Pittsburg, Texas, Nov. 8,1894. Editor Democrat : After an absence of twelve years in the Snnnv -South I will try to open a correspondence with some of my old friends in Pike by giving them a taint description of mv home in tho land oi ’flowers. While the old hills of Indiana are still fresh in my memory and the many friends I left in old Pikt arc uot forgotten, though my narnt

I ho doubt is obliterated from many oi > the memories and have gone to the | tar beyond. But those who may read these few lines I ask yon to compare the conditions of vour country and Texas and see if the op{Soriunities offered you in the South do not far ex cell that of your winter home of the North. My home is Eastern Texas, Camp county, with a population of 2,000 inhabitants-is the county seat with two railroads, giving good shipping facilities. The land is a rich sandy loam, very productive, producing from twenty-five to forty bushels of corn per acre and from one-half to one hale of cotton per acre. The country is well watered and well-timber-ed, consisting of post oak, walnut, dog wood, maple with some pine. The land lies well, slightly undulating, sufficient for draining. This county is well adapted to all kinds of fruits. Peaches, grapes and all kinds of berries grow here equal to California. All kinds of garden vegetatables grow in abundance, sweet and Irish potatoes grow here almost without cultivation, two crops of the lat ster can be {frown yearly and all garden vegetables ean be grown until Christmas. In our fertile valleys sugar cane grows equal to that of Louisiana—growing lo t height of eight to ten feet, yielding from 670 to 800 gallons of the finest syrup the land atfords. Land can he purchased at from three to ten dollars per acre on easy terms. If you want a home, where you can improve it almost without mouey, live in a healthy and delightful climate, with good honest law abiding, moral citizens come to Pittsburg, Camp county, Texas. We have good schools, churches of ail denominations, and aii political parlies are represented in Camp county. The people are patriotic, kind, and' willing to lend a helping hand to all. N. M. Mathes.

When a girl of sweet sixteen is on tIte street says an observing critic, -he has a cute pert way ot tossing her head a* though she owned the earth, and was going to the middle of the next block to get it. After she is eighteen, the world she owns Is about as tar away as the World’s Fair was to many people, and at twenty she gives up all hope of ever getting it at all. By the time she is twenty five, poor thing, she has a vague suspicion that there is a great deal of insincerity in the world, aud the thiug for her to do is to get a position and do something useful. After awhile she gels married to a man she dreamt d of. She then concludes she will be better oflin heaven. Four Big Successes.

What a thing is called depends largely on the class of people associaled with it, says an exchange. Rough rural people have a dance or hoedown and plaiy a fiddle tor the music; nice, good people have a ball or social gathering and someone executes delightful music on a violin. A common individual drinks too much beer or whiskey aud gets drunk ; the hightoned fellow partakes freely of wine and becomes slightly iutoxicated or rather the worse for liquor. Alaboring man gets fired and kicked out; the kidgloved fellow tesigos his position. Et cetera. We might tell you more about One Minute Cough Cure, but you prdbablv know that it cures a cough.
