Call For Town Convention.

The Republican voters of Rensselaer will meet in mass convention at the Court House, on Wednesday, April dtli, 1895, at 7:30 o’clock P. M. to nominate candidates to be voted for at the ensuing election, -for the offices of Town Treasurer, Town Clerk, Town Marshal, and Trustees of the Third and Fifth Districts. A new law is the one requiring township trustees to keep and publish once a year in one newspaper of general circulation a complete record of the receipts and expenditures of public funds in their office. It has been charged that this bill was drawn up and introduced in the interest of Republican editors, but, the bill was introduced by Senator Sellers, the .leader of the Democratic minority, and while at wiUTesulFlir some additional expense, its value to the tax payers is so apparent that none will deny that it is a wise and beneficial act. Township money will be carefully handled and disbursed when a complete record of it is required to be spread before the taxpayers.

THE NICHOLSON BILL.

The following is the substance of the Nicholson bill, as finally amended, and as it became a law. There is no emergency clause, and it therefore will uot go into effect until the laws are published, about July Ist. .—See. I 'contains the enacting clause, and proviifijS fur the specific 1 description of the room in which it is desired to sell liquors. It also yr.pvides that no license shall be graute i to other than a male person of good moral character, over the "age of 21 years. It also declares that no applicant shall be deemed of good moral character, if, within two years of the time of application, he shall have been, for the second time, found guilty of violating any of the provisions of this act.

Sec. 2. Provides that all liquors must be sold iu a room separate from any other business of any kind and no devices for amusement or music of any kind sha'l be permitted in such room. But the law is not to be construed as'prohibiting the sale of cigars and tobacco; and it is further provided that if the applicant for license desires to carry on any other or different business he shall state the same in his application for and the same may be granted or refused,by the Board of CorhmissionPrs hearing such application and such permission shall be stated in the license, if granted. Sec. 3 provides that the room where liquors are sold shall be securely closed and locked on days and hours when sale of liquors is prohibited, and the fact that any person other than the proprietor or his family is permitted to enter such room at such time is prima facia evidence of guilt upon a trial for the violation of the law prohibiting sales at such times. Sec. 4 provides that the room where liquors are sold shall be upon the ground floor and fronting the street or highway, and shall be arranged with window or glass door so that the whole of said room shall be in view of the street, and no screen or other device shall be arranged so as to obstruct said view during the days or hours when sales are prohibited. The following is the exact wording of the latter half of this section: “Upon conviction for the violation of this or either of the foregoing sections of this act the defendant •hall be fined in any sum not less than 110 nor more than 9100, to which may be added imprisonment in tna{coanty jail not exceeding sts sty days, and, la ease of csarietieß ler the assond •£•

sense, either upon a plea of guilty or conviction upon trial thereof, in any Circuit, Supreme, Criminal Justice or Police Court of as apart of the judgement the court may make an order revoking the license of the person convicted, Whi oh gaid jndgpjnent shall have the effect to completely ..annul and set aside such license and all privileges and rights under the same. And upon the third conviction oh plea of guilty entered, the court rendering judgement thereon shall annul and set aside such license and all privileges and rights under the same.” Sec. 5 Any person engaged in the sale of liquor, who allows minors about his saloon or place of business shall be fined not less than $lO nor more than $100; and a jail sentence of not more than 90 days may be added. Sec. 6 [entire] Whoever, directly or indirectly, sells or delivers any spirituous, vinous, malt or other intoxicating liquors to any person under the age of twentone years, either for his own use or for the use of any other person whomsoever, shall be fined in any sum not more than SIOO nor less than S2O, to which may be added imprisonment in the county jail not exceeding ninety days. Sec. 7 [entire] It is hereby made the duty of all peace officeis, to-wit: Town and city marshals, policemen, sheriffs and constables, residing in the township, town or city in which any saloon may be hereafter located, to enforce the provisions of this act. Sec. 8 provides that the owner or proprietor of the business shall take out license in his own name, and must be a bonafide resident, and no. more than one license can be granted to any one person. This is designed to prevent one man owning different saloons at the same time and putting them in charge of agents. Section 9 is the “local option” section. We give it entire: Sec. 9 If, three da_ys before any regular session of the Board of Commissioners of any county, a remonstrance in writing, signed by a majority of the legal voters of any township or ward in any city situated in said county, shall be filed with the auditor of the county against the granting of the I i eejise to any applicant for the sale of spirituous, vinous, malFor other intoxicating liquors under the law of the State of Indiana, with the privilege of allowing the same to be drunk on the premises where sold, within the limits of said township, or city ward, it shall be unlawful thereafter for such Board of. Commissioners to grant such license to such applicant therefor during the period of two years'from tlie date of the filing of such remonstrance. If any such license should be grant* ed by said board during said period, the same shall be null and void, and the holder thereof shall be liable for any sales of liquor made by him, the same as if such sale were made without license. The number to constitute a majority of voters herein referred to shall be _determined by the aggregate vote cast in said township, or city ward, for candidates for the highest office at the last election proceeding the filing of such remonstrance.

Sec. 9|. It shall be unlawful for any spirituous, vinous or malt liquor to be sold or given away iu any drug store in any quantity less than a quart at a time except upon the written prescription of a reputable practicing physician. Any person violating any of the provisions of this section shall be fined for the first offense the sum of §25, and for the second offense in any sum not Itss than §25 nor more than §2OO, to which not exceeding six months’ imprisonment may be added. sec. 10 provides that this act shall apply to all persons whether selling under government or state license.

'— A STRANGE CASE. How an Enemy was Foiled. The following graphic statement will be read with intense interest: “1 cannot describe the numb, creepy sensation that existed in my arms, hands and legs. I had to rub and beat those parts until they were sore, to overcome in a measure the dead feeling that had taken possession of them. In addition, I had a strange weakness in my back and around my waist, toffijther with an indescribable 'gone' feeling wmy stomach. Physicians said it was creeping paralysis, from which, according to theiruniversatconclusion, there is no relief. Once it fastens upon a person, they say, it continues its insidious progress until it reaches a vital point and the sufferer dies. SuctLwas my prospect. I had been doctoring a year and a half steadily, but with no particular benefit, when I saw ah advertisement of Dr Miles’ Restorative Nervine, procured a bottle and began using it. Marvelous as It may seem, but a few days had passed before every bit of that creepy feeling had left me, and there has not been even the slightest indication of its return. I now feel as well as I ever did, and have gained ten pounds in weight, though I had run down from 170 to 137. Four others have used Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nervine on my recomendation, and it has been as satisfactory in their cases as in mine.”—James Kane, La Rue, O. Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nervine Is sold by all druggists on a positive guarantee, or sent direct by the Dr. Miles Medical Co., Elkhart, Ind., on receipt of price, 51 per bottle, six bottles for 55, express prepaid. It Is free from opiates or dangerous drugs. Sold by all Druggists. “Perhaps iou woul I not Ihink so but a 1 rge proportion of disease ‘ in New York comet from carelessness about catching cold,” says Dr. Cyrus Edson “It is such a simpl < thing and so common t hat v<wy fe v people, ug’ ess it s-a se-< dpn -n monia. pay any attention to a cold. There are a great many cases of entarrah and consumption which have 'heir origin in this neglect of th<f simplest p;eeaution of everyd y life. The most sensible advice is, when you have one, get rid of At as s.o<>n as possible. By ad n eans do hot n>t neglect it. Dr Eds n does hot teil vou how to cure a cold but we will.

The Railroad Sandwich. W. R. Hart, Traveling Salesman, Dayton, 0., says: “ Like many other traveling men, I made the acquaintance of the railroad sandwich, who afterward introduced me to old ‘General Dyspepsia,’ an acquaintance I was unable to shake until I met with LYON’S SEVEN WONDERS, which I am happy to say, has put the unwelcome guest to flight. Dyspepsia and headaches are things of the past. I feel like a new man and can eat anything.” Could not Sleep at Night. To whom it may concern: Following an attack of la grippe and typhoid fever, I was left with a bad condition of blood and serious stomach troubles. I had no appe- . tite, was exceedingly nervous and ' could not sleep at night. To tell the story briefly, LYON’S SEVEN WONDERS cured me. Johm F. Whits, • tMuity Becm4cr*a OCce. taidcao, Ha B«yt
