County clerk* County auditor. County tieasurer. County sheriff. County surveyor. County coroner. Commissioner, Ist district. Commissioner, 2nd district. Commissioner, 3rd district. By order of County Central Committee. L. L. Ponslee, Wm. D. Beingle, Chm. Secy If Tabor’s man could be separated from Tabor’s policy he might do very well. Let the government affix its seal upon everything that passes as money, and let all forms of that money be made subject to taxation. The Republican party subsidized ship lines to increase our “‘foreign trade and then enacted the McKinley tariff to lessen ini-

portations, thus taxing us to keep goods out and again taxing us to bring them in. As a taxer the Republican party can lay traps “to catch ’em a-comin’ and a-gwine.”

It turns out that the district court dismissed the case of the Knights of Labor against Secretary Carlisle on the ground that they did not represent any property rights. That is, the men who create all the property, are not “in it” when they buck against a scheme of the gold bugs to steal a large part of their labor.

Some of the Republican free silver senators who at the time of the passage of the repeal bill had intended to vote for a reduction of tariff duties in order to compensate in some degree for the scarcity of money, will now oppose the Wilson bill on the ground that if the tariff is not changed and times do not improve, the people will then be convinced that more money is needed. If those senators really believe what they preach, why don’t they do as Stewart and Jones, of Nevada, and go with the party that has the courage of its convictions.

We can judge the future only by the past; and judging by the past, we would naturally expect the conditions, industriously and financially, to remain unchanged under either of the old parties, since neither have brought about any improvement. Supposing the oxisting conditions will remain unchanged, what would be the solution to the following problem? According to the caucus reports, productive industry can add only about two per cent, per annum to the nation’s wealth, while capital accumulates at the rate of six to eight per cent. At that rate how long will it be before capital will own labor? Some of those fellows that are so full of “vim and victory” please answer.

Tuesday: “Last summer, through some mistakes in the pension department, the pension of Cyrus Haas of this city was dis--1 continued. Mr. Haas is a Christian gentleman and was a gallant soldier in the union army and he needs his pension for the support of his family. The republican papers devoted columns to | denunciation of the administra- | tion generally and to Secretary Hoke Smith in particular, and ; some of the other veterans of | this county were made to believe | that their pensions were in great danger, but they were assured by the local democrats that this ' administration do justice to the old soldiers. The Sentinel correspondent visited Mr. Haas the other evening and learned from him that his pension had been restored to its original amount, $lO per month. While the republican papers published the discontinuance, they had nothing to say in regard to the restorasion.” Notwithstanding the fact that the banks have ceased to loan money in Jasper county, Austin & Co. have an unlimited supply of funds to loan for long or short time. No delay in making loans.

FROM WASHINGTON.

An Intereetlns Batch of Biewi From the Capitol. From our Regular Correspondent. Washington, Feb. 23, ’94. Representative Bland has not yet succeeded in getting a quorum of members favorable to his bill for the coinage of the seigniorage on the floor of the House, but is still certain of getting the measure passed. The absurdity and inconsistancy of refusing to vote in order to break a quorum has certainly been made conspicuous during this Congress, and no one party or one set of men has monopolized it. Those who abused others the loudest for doing it when the Democrats were trying to get a quorum to get the tariff bill before the House themselves used the same tactics against Mr. Bland’s bill. In short, it is a method that is condemned by all, except when they desire to make use of it to prevent or stave off action upon some bill to which they are opposed, and which is used by all whenever they think it will serve their purpose.

Senator Morgan’s report of the Hawaiin investigation, which rather leans towards annexation and d@es not condemn Mr. Stevens, has been signed by the Republicans on the Foreign committee. The other DenTocrats will present a minority report. • ® o Attorney General Olney played a trump card in the game against silver when he, in reply to a formal request of the Secretary of the Treasury, delivered an official opinion th it the silver certificates, millions of dollars worth of which are in circulation throughout the country, are not lawful money in the meaning of the acts of June 20, 1874, and of July 12, 1882' It is putting the case very mildly to say that this opinion was a groat surprise to seven-tenths of the House and Senate, and that it around much indignation among the friends of silver, many of whom do not hesitate to characterize it as another administration move for the further debasement of silver. While the opinion of the Attorney General is not legally binding upon anybody, it necessarily has much effect upon Treasury officials in a matter of this sort. It is stated at the Treasury that it was because of the refusal of some of the national banks to accept silver certificates in exchange for other paper money presented for. redemption that Secretary Carlisle asked the Attorney General to pass on the question. It is probable that steps will at once be taken by the friends of silver to make a test case for the courts. There is no doubt about the intention of Congress having been to make the silver certificates lawful money, and it will require a decision of the Supreme court : to convince the silver men that :it did not succeed. The Senate ;on motion of Senator Allen has | asked for the official documents.

Upon no one schedule of the tariff bill is more pressure being brought to bear upon the Senators who are members of the Finance committee than that which deals with sugar. Many Senators have been greatly surprised at the magnitude of this industry. The appointment of Senator White, of Louisiana, to the Supreme court, has not weakened the sugar men, as he will not leave the Senate until his successor, who is certain to be a sugar man, arrives to take his place. The Louisiana Senators, who have declared in the most positive terms that they will not vote for the bill unless sugar is protected, are receiving strong support from as far away from their homes as Kansas, Nebraska and Utah, where the best sugar industry is large and growing, and they are still confident that their wishes will be respected, if not by the committee,

then by a vote of the Senate. • • • The Senate has directed the committee on printing to investigate the charges of crookedness in the awarding of the contract for the publication of the Patent Office Gazette, which have been widely published. The members of this committee are Gorman, of Md., Ransom, of N. C., and Mandernon, of Nebraska. The investigation will be commenced at once. Politics, business, jealousy and “boodle” are mixed up in it, and some of the testimony may be sensational, if the right witnesses are summoned. • • •

Only one thing is absolutely certain about the tariff, aud that is, that the Democratic Senators have not been able to ‘ ‘get together.” Everything else is conjecture. You will be told by the know-it-alls, that it was the interferance of President Cleveland that prevented the bill being reported to the Finance committee this week, and that he interfered because certain articles had been taken from the free list, and made dutiable, he being determined that the free list as it was when the bill passed the House shall not be curtailed, if he can prevent it. To show the absurdity of that conjecture it is only necessary to mention the fact that a majority of the Democratic Senators who are demanding a curtailment of the free list are Mr. Cleveland’s warm friends and ardent supporters and are more - likely to know his wishes and to be acting in accordance therewith than othwise.

“Perhaps you would not think so, but a very large proportion of diseases in New York comes from cai’elessness about. catching cold,” says Dr. Syrus Edson. “It is such a simple thing and so common that very few people, unless it is a case of pneumonia, pay any attention to a cold. New York is one of the healthiest places on the Atlantic Coast and yet there are many cases of catarrh and consumption which have their origin in this neglect of the simplest precaution of every day life. The most sensible advice is, when you have one get rid of it as soon as possible. By all means do not neglect it.” Dr. Edson does not tell you how to cure a cold but we will. Take Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. It will relieve the lungs, aid expectoration, open the secretions and soon effect a permanent cure. 25 and 50 cent bottles for sale by F. B. Myer Druggist.

Cutting up a Whale.

When a fish, as the whalers will forever call it, is taken, the

ship gets alongside, and the creature is fixed head and tail in a curious and ancient fashion, so that by slacking or tightening the ropes, each part of the vast body can be brought uppermost. A whole boat may be seen inside the giant mouth, the men hacking with axes, to slice away the ten-foot screen of bone, while others, with sharp spades upon the back, are cutting off the deep great-coat of fat in which kindly Nature has wrapped up this most over-grown df her children. In a few hours all is stowed away in the tanks, and a red islet, with white projecting bones, lies alongside, and sinks like a stone when the ropes are loosed. Some years ago, a man, still lingering upon the back, had the misfortune to have his foot caught between the creature’s ribs, at the instant when the tackles were undone. Some oeons hence those two skeletons, the one hanging by the foot from the other, may grace the museum of a subtropical Greenland, or astonish the students of the Spitzbergen Institute of Anatomy.—A. Conan Doyle on “The Glamour of the Arctic,” in McClure’s Magazine for March.

A severe rheumatic pain in the shoulber had troubled Mr. J. H. Loper, a well known druggist of Des Moines, lowa, for over six months. At times the pain was so severe that he could not lift anything. With all he could do he could not get rid of it until he applied Chamberlain’s Pain Balm. “I only made three applications of it,” he says, “And have since been free from all pain.” He now recommends it to persons similarly afflicted. It is for sale by P. B. Meyer, Druggist.
