Onk Coon will likely be appointed
to the vacant secretaryship of the
National Treasury.
Tiik Now York Evening I'ost thinks
' that however tlic campaign may end,
greater caution will heroafter ho observed
in making nominations.
Tnti State canvass lias begun, several
appointments liavo been filled and today,
Senator Hampton and others will
speak at AValhnlla.
Thk Spring Hold Republican nominates
President Arthur as successor to
Mr. Blainoin cnso the latter withdraws
from tho eouyass.
Candidate St. John, of tho prohibition
party, counts coiiiUontly on
receiving ono million votes. If ho
do, Blaino will bo largoly tho loser.
Thk SpringtioUl Republican believes
tlmt if Blaine wins, tho Republican
conventions of the future will go from
bad to woVso. An exchange commenting
upon the above says: "Will the Republican
explain how u convention
can do worse than tho National liepublican
Convention of 1884?" Sensible!
_
The Republicans in New York, wo
are glad to eay, are Warring among
thomsolves now, and serious efforts
are now boing mado to kick out of
ofllco tho Chairman of the Ronublican
Stato Exccutivo Coirnnitlcc. He is
chargcd with being unfriendly to Mr.
Blaine ami lus cause.
Some Republican postmasters in Indiana
arc Quietly suppressing Democratic
newspapers, instoad of delivering
them. Tho Indianapolis Telegraphy
a German paper, got tired of it, and
sent around a detectivo who bought
some of tho papers with tho wrappers
all on from the postmaster at Garrett,
Ind., for paper rags. A United States
marshal has gono to Garrett to arrest
tho postmastor.
Democuats in Now York report tho
outlook as growing bettor mul better
every day for Cleveland. Ono of the
signs is the formidable Independent
movement tlmt has sprung up in the
business oxchanges, where Clovcland
and Hondricks clubs are being formed.
The one in the Produce Exchange
mtm&ors 7,30 members. Two hundroil
Republican members of the Stock Exchange
have signed tho call for tho
organization of an Iudopondent Cleveland
club in the exchange.
Tiik Young Republican Club, of
Brooklyn, a few nights ntro. vntfvi
support lilaipo and to engago actively
in tho national canvass. Though the
majority of the club favors Mr. Blaine's
eloctlon, a large and very highly respectable
minority aro desperately
opposed to him, and will make their
vigorous opposition folt not only in
Brooklyn, but throughout tho State of
Acw York. Tho Democrats could not

As nu ovidonco of tho mixed condition
of political affairs in Iowa it is
stated that out of tho twolvo Gorman
papors published in that Stato but ono

tho groat body of Gorman and Scandinavian

Some church pressuro has boon
| brought to boar upon Ilenry Ward
Beechcr becauso of his cloclarod purpose
to support Governor Clovoland
for tho Presidency. In reply to fathorly
and Christian counsel of prominent
members of Plymouth church, ho said:1
"I deny tho right of ony one in Plymouth
church or out of it to question i
my motives in politics, and if tho
majority of tho church members fool
that my courso is injurious to tho
I church, my resignation is at tlifetr (lis
posal." The veteran pastor intimated
that ho was independent enough to
livo without Plymouth church, and
niulcr the circumstances would not
submit to dictation. Hurrah for

Judge J. N. Scott, of Indianapolis,
Ind., and a brother-in-law of Senator
Benjamin Harrison, has declared for
Clovelaud. Ho has always boon a Republican.
In his letter to the president
of the Indepcndont Republican
Club ho says: "After much hesitation

its weight, at least, towards the defeat
of thoso who shamelessly practice corruption
in office, and deceit, misrepresentation
and the intolerance born of
acknowledged unworthiness in the
pursuit of it, and will therefore bo for
Cleveland and Hendricks."
We arc glad that the efforts to cffect
a compromise and conciliation between
the half-breed and stalwart fathers lias
signally failod. It, was hoped that a
meeting could bo arranged between
(vtiinii mill iJIUIIIU| IIIIL II, 1111II.11 y 11118cnrried,
and gloomy Blaine i8 in statu

not stated that ho would call, and that
Blaine's managers sent a proposition
to Arthur which they believed would
tlx matters all right and acted as if
everything were settled. Now they
are discomforted, but say that a meeting
will yet bo arranged. The Arthur
mon laugh at the predicament of the
Blaine managers and intimate that
llwvo will bo no mootiiiff. ISx-Oavernor

the arrangement miscarricd and are

for mutual plunder, and if successful,
the people and tlie government. For
certain considerations Mr. Cameron
is to come to lllaine's rescue in the
approaching election, and to assure
him a victory in Pennsylvania, Blaine
wants Cameron's money, inlluencc
and manipulation in Ohio, and in
pursuance of the contract entered into,
he will have it. What will bo the
outcome of it, tho future alono can

that ho had boon presont at the

Tho following oxtract takon.fVom a

specitnon of withering invective which
has ovor appeared in tho public prints
of this country. Gonoral . Duller ipthe
subject'of this eloquent denunciation.
and it was penned by tho giftod Clms.
A. Dana. Mr. Dana says of him:
Hated by some, condemned by
mdTny and distrusted by all, this
bad man, with his crookcd ways,' foul
methods, distorted mind and yioked
heart, glories in these moral dnformi*
ties, flaunts them constantly boforo tho
public eye and traffics in them as political
merchandise. Tho notoriety whloh
decency shrinks from as a degradation
ho seeks at any sacridco. IIo troats
the reproach which follows such oxhi-,
bitions as so much canital added to thti
stock of 111-faine that lmd already maflo
hi6 name odiously conspicuous intitnd
out of Congress. ' Rcjolcingin hisowrt
shame and coining money from opon
venality, discarding any* pretoijso of
principle, bound by no "ties of JvMioiy '
scofllng at roliglon, making politics a
trado, despotic whou clothed with
authority, cowardly by naturo, mercenary
from habit, and dostituto of
one- o'nnbbling quality or manly attribute
to lift him up above tlioso wrotehod
characteristics, ho is to-day tho lead
ing candidate lor tho highest honor in
enlightened ftiul moral Massachusetts.
To t his complexion have wo come at
last.
To-dny, this same great daily, edited
by tho same Dana, is tho champion of
Butler's cause, and advocates hisc'.aims
and fitness for an election to tho Chief
Magistracy of the nation. Ah, indeed!
Have we to this complexion como at
hist? It was once the proud boast of
the Sun that it shone for all, but today
it shines only for tho "bad man,
with his crooked ways, foul methods,
distorted mind and wickcd heart."
Aro tho moving spirits of tho Sun possessed
of unbalanced minds, or has
a bargain been struck) or why is it that
a leading metropolitan journal is made
to stultify itself beforo tho country
after this manner? I'erhaps, after all,
a truo theory for tho whole matter
may be found in tho fact that Mr.'
Dana hns more hate than conscience.
Hating Mr. Cloveland and dosplsing
Mr. lilnine, ho naturally seeks for
some candidate to whom his support
and iullucnco may freely bo given.
Shutting his eyes to tho past record
of his mail and forgetting his own past
utterances, ho sails headlong On with
the name and ensign of tho Hero of Now
Orleans at his mast-head. Wo hopo
for Mr. Dana's sake, and for tho sako
oi ueccncy, lor (ho good unci wellbeing
of journalism, tlmt the Sun will

An Appeal to the People.
The National Democratic Executive
Committee has issued an addross to tho
people on the political situation, and
j after calling attention to tho promises
and pledges of reform made by the
Democratic party and what it is contending
for, rofers to the fact that tho
Republican party, in its desperato effort
to elect lilaino and continuo in
power, has the powerful aid of an immense
army of government officials and
employees upon whom it levies assessments,
organized bodies of men who
have grown rich by a high protective
tariff and want that tariff perpetuated,
a host of unscrupulous contractors and
jobbers who have grown wealthy upon
public plunder, who freely contribute
funds to avoid risk of beinjj called to
account for the evil methods by which
their woalth was obtained, and tho
corporations which havo seized upon
the public domain, and who know they
will be compelled to surrender tho
lands they hold if tho Democratic
party comes into power, anil arc therefore
willing1 to contribute freely to
keep tho Republican party in power.
From tho sources tho Republicans aro
drawing tho campaign fund which is to
be in supporting Blain. The address
concludes:
This 'comniittco has not troops of
office holdors at its command. It will
notagrco to sell the future legislation
of Congress for money paUl;iiow into
its pasty treasury. It will notpromiso
immunity to thioves. .
It will not contract to uphold any
corrupt bargain heretoforo made by
tho Republican partv with any corporuI
tion for all tho wealth which such cor
poration can offer. It appeals to the
people against one and all of thoso opponents
thus corruptly banded togel nor
against tho frioiule of good government.
Tho number of all these opponents
is small but their wealth is great
and it will bo unscrupulously used.
An activo and vigorous campaign
mnst bo mado against them. Their
paid advocatos must bo met ancl dofeatod
in debato upon tho platform and
in discussion in nowspapers. The organization
of all who aro opposed to
thorn must be perfected in every State,
city and county in tho land.
I JVlonoy is needed to do this honest
work. Your committee, refusing to
j adopt the mot-hods by which tho lie
{luunciwi purcy mis its treasury, calls ,
upon all good citizons for tho aid
I which It roquirei'. It invites and it
will weleomc contributions from every
honest man who is onposed to tho
olcction of .Tamos G. Blaine ns Presi- <
dent. No contributions \yill bo ac- i

banker or postal money order offlco I
can be found, tho moans exist for plac- <

MR. JOHN PEARSON'S STATEMENT.
In the spring of 188'2 1 was attacked with
a very had cough, which continued to
grow worse until full, when I got so weak
that I could not get about. I tried a great
manv kinds of mc.dioiim but continued to !
grow worse.. 1 was notified that I had
consumption and woukl probably die. Dr.
Holloway finally told me to try Drawer's
Lung Restorer. They sent to Ward's Store
and got a bottle and I commenced taking
it right away. After taking two or three
doses, I began to. improve, and by the time
1 had used up one bottle I was able to get
on mv feet again. I am now in excellent
health. 1 am confident that tho Lung Restorer
saved my life and my neighbors are
of the same opinion. It is the best Lung
Remedy ever made in my opinion. Dr.
II. promised me tliat. he would write to the
manufacturers and tell them of the wonderful
cure It made in my case.
Statement of Mr. ttciij. F. Hearnond.
Early in November, 1881, whilo sowing
on the machine, my wife was taken with a
aororc t>k lior oi<lo> -wlaicli >vuo SUUU
followed by hemorrhages from her lungs
and a severe cough. Fever commenced,
she could neither eat nor sleep, and iu a few
weeks she was reduced to a living skeleton.
T' attending physician told mo that he
ciH.ught one of her lungs was entirely gone.
She could not retain the most delicato
nourishment on her stomach. I then
agreed with Dr. Sullivan, my family physician,
to call Dr. llolloway in consultation.
They made a final examination of tho
patient and pronounced the case hopeless.
Dr. llolloway then suggested tho Rrcwcr's
uiiiig iu;sm)n;v as .a last resort, i sent tor a
bottle and gave her a close. I found that
she could retain St on her stomach and
after about the third dose, I began to
notice some improvement in her condition.
I continued the medicine regularly, and by
the time she had taken two bottles, she
was able to walk about the house. She is
now in better health than she has enjoyed
for several years. I believe that Lung
Restorer saved her life. We have a family
of six children, some of them grown."
