THE ISSUE.
The issue in the present campaign is met
fairly and squarely by tho Republican party
in this county, a plank in tho platform of
which proclaims:
"Wi condemn tho uniform incompetency of
tho Democratic county officials and especially
denounce the present flagrant mismanagement
t the District Attorney's offlcoof pigeon-holing
Indictments ngninst political heelers who openly
4cty tho election laws; nnd call upon nil good
cUircns, irrespective of party, to nsslst us in
electing to that office a lawyer of such legal
attainments nnd personal integrity as will en
uro a proper administration of its duties and
tho punishment of all offenders, regnrdless of
party or political Influence."
A news despatch says Corbett and his
manager aro leaving Arkansas in disgust
This is the best recommendation Arkansas
has received in a loug time.
There is no reason why tho Republicans
should not bo successful to-day. Tho Demo
cratic county ticket is not any stronger this
year than it was in 1883 and 1801, but in
some respects it is much weaker. All that
is necessary for Republican success is a full
party vote. See that your neighbor goes to
tho polls, and you do likewise.
A vote for Judge Lyon is an endorsement
f minority representation and anon-partisan
judiciary.
CAST YOUR VOTE.
To-day tlio votors aro Tendering their ver
dict. Tho last appeals havo been made, and
tho merits of tho respective candidates havo
been discussed at every hcarthstono and in
every placo where men congregate.
To-day evory American citizen standsupon
an equal footing, tho rich and poor, the
ignorant and learned, the native and foreign
born each is tho peer of tho other. Tho
ballot of tho millionaire counts for no more
than that of tho day laborer. The right of
franchiso is a grand prerogative, and should
be oxcrcised by every good citizen. It is a
uty you owo your country, your family and
yourself to cast your vote for that party
which will the better administer the laws
and conduct tho affairs of the state.
Although this is what is called an off yoar,
the duty of every voter to go to the polls is
no lass imperativo than if a president was
to bo clotted. The voting franchiso should
be hold sacred by every man ontitled to it,
and if It woro thus regarded wo should with
eut doubt havo better men in office, and
consequently better administration.
Naturally, the man who votes only at Presi
dential elections feels little interest in the
elections fir less prominent officials, forget-
inn the &t tliat upon the selection of
tfovernorg, Judges, county mid municipal
olTiean generally, mainly depends the. wel
fare of the state or town in which be resides.
The man wlvo votes only at presidential
. chactioiii, however observant he may be of
Hie duties of citizenship, lacks one of the
uiasi important sHtrtHiteritieti of a good
cithtau. Ho does not come up to the requisites
which constitute a good eithseu, fur upon
the regular exurcie ef the right of suffrage
by all depends the wel&re and safety of the
entire community.
It behooves every vHlw.n, and especially
Republican voters, if he has not yet east his
liallnt, to exeroiM) tliat light liefore 7:00
o'clock to-night, when the polls will close.
THE experiments conducted hy the post
office department lu handling mail on street
cam in the larger cities have, in the main,
proven very successful in quickly getllng
the mail to the sub-stations, thus expediting
the delivery to the pnblu'. As the idea
underlying the postal business is the prompt
transmission of l oniniiiniealiuii Ixihl'iii the
people, any movement tending to that end is
watched with considorablo Interest, nnd It
certainly is noeded in Philadelphia, whero
the sorvico can stand consldoniblo improve
ment.
Lrt no patriotic citizen permit weather,
buslnoss, pleasure or thor consideration to
keep him away from the polls to-day. Every
vote Is wanted.
Spain now proposes to compromise with
Cuba on a basis of administrative reform,
but Cuba has ti led that before.
Steve Middleton will receive the full
Republican vote, and a great many of the
opposition besides. Ho has niadoa vigorous
canvass.
Shenandoah has two candidates seeking
tho suurago of tho people. Both men aro
well and favorably known. There is a
higher and moro important Issue, however,
than that of personal character and fitness
for the position of tho rcspcctlvo candidates.
Wo are on tho eve of an Important prcsl
dcntial election j In 1890 a majority of tho
county ollices will bo filled, and it is essential
to Republican success next year tliat tho
party will como out victorious in tho present
contest. Outside of all these considerations
tho Republican candidato for Controller is
justly entitled to bo retained in his present
position. His record in that olllce has boen
ono of much profit to tho taxpayers, and
notwithstanding tho opposition in certain
quarters ho always performed his duty con
scicntiously and faithfully. Wo think Mr,
Severn will continue to control, so far as tho
Controller's office is concerned.
The office of District Attorney needs just
such a lawyer as Charles E. Brcckons to deal
with criminals. Ho will enforce the law
irrespective of personal or political considers
tlons.
In training the pugilists of tho future less
attention will bo paid to muscle and more to
vocabulary.
Tiierk are many people who regret that
the Monroe doctrine did not say something
about this country's trading off splendid
girls and fine fortunes for more or less obso
lete titles.
The Tinegrovo Herald, one of tho leading
Democratic papers of the county, has this to
say of tho Republican candidato for Coroner
"Dr. Seyfert has been a member of the
Borough Council, is at present a momker of
the School Board, identified with some of tl:
most popular fraternal organizations, kind
courteous and sociable, as well as firm and
determined when occasion requires. Ho will
make that ideal official in tho Coroner's chair
which tho taxpayers of this county want,
There will bo no inquisitions on people dying
from natural causes, only efficient deputies
appointed, and good juries selected; on the
whole, tho record and credit of the offico
raised to the highest standard and mone
saved to the taxpayers. Twenty-four years
of active professional life well qualifies tin
doctor for the position ho seeks, and that ho
will fill it most acceptably tho public can rest
nssurcd."
Even the political opponents of Judge
Lyon will admit his qualifications for th
honored position of Orphans' Court Judgi
He has been on tho bench sinco last spring
and he has proved his fitness for tho position
and has discharged its duties faithfully,
efficiently and satisfactorily. Thero is no
reason why a tried and trusted Judge should
be turaed out to try an experiment.
Philadelphia has taken a step backward.
Tho powers controlling tho street railways
there havo abolished free transfer passes and
will now chargo three cents additional where
a transfer is desired. Walking is likely to
be more fashionable as a result of this.

How to Prevent Croup.
SOME READING THAT WILL PROVE INTER
ESTING TO YOUNO MOTHERS. HOW TO GUARD
AGAINST THE DISEASE.
Croup is a terror to young mothers and to
post them concerning tho cause, first symp
toms and treatment is tho object of this item.
Tho origin of croup is a common cold.
Children who aro subject to it take cold very
easily and croup is almost suro to follow.
The first symptom is hoarseness : this is
soon followed by a peculiar rough cough,
which is easily recognized and will never be
forgotten by ono who has heard it. Thotinio
to act is when tho child first becomes hoarse.
If Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is freely
given all tendency to croup will soon disap
pear. Even after the croupy cough has de
veloped it will prevent tho attack. Thero is
no danger in giving this romcdy for it con
tains nothing injurious. For sale by Gruhlcr

PERHAPS THIS MAY HELP
YOU.
"My food doos nio no good," you say.
Then it docs you harm. There is no halting
placo between those oxtrcmos. Digested food
alono gives health nitd strcnath. Undigested
food sours, or ferments in the stomach and
becomes a poison to the- Whole body. It
causes headache, honrt palpitation, liver nnd
kidney trouble, distress after eating, pains in
the chest and sides, and the tired, languid
heavy feeling wo hear so much about, When
tho digestion goes wrong every function of
the body goes wrong. Yes, and the mind,
too. Men fall in business and dio poor for
no other reason than this, they aro weak
ened, dulled and stuplficd by dyspepsia,
Tho lives of u host of women aro blighted in
tho same way. You may bo ono of this,
mlscrablo multitude. Tho writer of these
Hues was one of your numbor a short tlmo
ago. I tried dozens of things to get cured;
just as you havo done, no doubt. Tho thing
WHICH at last succeeded with mo may suc
ceed with you. It is a discovery of thoso

Lebanon, N. Y. allied the Shaker Digestivo
Cordial. It is not a purgative, which at best
gives only transient relief. It is in itself n
digestive food and nlso a corrector of tho
digestive function. You can eat nnd digest
your food while taking this cordial. It helps
you at onco nnd soon makes the stomach
vigorous and healthy. It is not liko any
other so-called dyspepsia cures. It is pro
pared by tho Shakers principally from herbs
cultivated by them. They do not ask us to
spend a dollar for a bottlo whllo wo aro in
tho dark as to its virtues. They take that
risk themselves. Almost nny druggist will
sell you a trial bottle fur ten cents, so you
can sco whether it is what they say and

Did you over cat Asparagus ?
Of course? '
Well, what woro tho effects on your kid
noys? i
Asparagus has tho best healing und toaic
effects on tho kidneys of any drug known.
French physicians discovered this yers
ago, and have used it ever since.
But tho best properties of tho plant aro to
be got in Dr. Hobb's Sparagus Kidney Pills.
Thero is a reason for this, and that is, that
the extract of Asparagus used in Dr. Hobb'st
Sparagus Kidney Pills is prepared from tho
roots, and not from tho stalks.
Also, that it is prepared by a special pro
cess, which extracts all tho virtues of the
plant without waste.
So that, ono Dr. Hobb's Sparagus Kidney
Pill is as good as perhaps ten dishes' o'f
Asparagus.
Thoro aro medicines for this and drugs for
that, ono for Khcumatism, another for Gout,
another for Bright's Disease, or rather, a
dozen or more for each sickness.
When, all the time, Dr. Hobb's Sparasu
Kidney Pills will cure any ono of them.
And tlio cure mado would mean a perfect
cure, and not merely a short relief.
For the truth is that the kidneys aro Uie
real, sure-enough causo of a largo numbor of
our principal diseaso.
They aro supposed to filter tlio blood, and
when they don't, wo fall sick.
Tlio only reason thoy don't, is becausd thoy
are sick themselves, and the only tiling tfiat
will euro them is Dr. Hobb's Sparagus Kid
ney Pills. 'S.
The blood needs continual purifying or N
filterinc.
Impure blood is Poisonous. Poison in thn
blood is disease
The diseases caused by bad blood are some
times called "blood diseases." A few of them
aro Rheumatism, Gout, Anaemia, Palo and
Snllnnf Pimnlorlnn ('l.lno.'u ri.., Ol-l.
ucss, Nervousness, Neuralgia, etc.
All these, and all other blood diseases, can

helping the sick kidneys.
Kidney diseases of all kinds aro cured by
Dr. Hobb's Sparagus Kidney Pills.
They will euro Bright's Disease, Nephritis,
Congestion, Diabetes, Pain in tlio Back,

Don't overwork your kidneys. Tako care
of them. Don't work too much, worry toi
much, eat too much, drink too much.
li you no, your kidneys will sutler, and
you will suffer from tho chects of their sick
