Wiiilo the selections may not be acceptable to all, nevertheless they are apparently tlio choice of the majority of those having the power of appointment, and all should acquiesce in tho rulo of tlio majority. Per sonal grievances should lie put aside for (lie success of the ticket, which is an exception ally strong one and cuniineiids itxelf to the voters of tlio county. Bvory man upon tlio picket, from Congrcsuiati to l'oor Director, is worthy tho support of the Uixiyei of the county; they liavo been choneii, in an open jind wiuaie fight, ns the stuudard-bearers of the Republican party in this county, and as such are justly entitled to receive tho united support of the purty.

Not ono person in a thousand knows that tho cause of biliousness Is the clogging of tho liver by the poisons of Indigestion. Nor that tho only proper cure for It is a tonic to aid tlio stomach. Hut modern medicine declares tho truth of It. And the Shakers have proved It by the wonderful success of their Shaker Dlgentlvo Cordial. Ono of tho most Important uses of tho liver Is to arrest and destroy all poisons which try to find their way into the blood. Wheu It's clogged, it can't do this. Undigested food ferments and putrefies In the stomach, and tho poisons of putrefaction clog and paralyze tho liver, after which they find their way into tho blood. Itcioistho true explanation of all tho distressing disorders and complications caused by indigestion. Shaker Dlgostlvo Cordial is tho only tonic cordial which aids tho stomach in a natural way to digest its food, lly this moans, it cures indigestion, rostoros tlio liver, and frcos the body from poison and disease.

When Mr. Depow sat down General Hnrrison stepped to the front. Ho was In evening dross In contrast to Dr. Depow, who was in n frock coat, and as ho waited for tho enthusiastic cheering to subside, looked In very good health. General Hnrrison said: "Ladlosnnd Gcntlomom I tun on tho Itopubllcnn retired list not by reason of any age limit nor by tho plea of any con vention, but that tlio younger men might liavo a chanco and that I might have a rest.

I thought they greatly magnified tho importance of nnythlng I could say, but I could not qtiito content myself to subordinate what others thought to bo a public duty to my private convenience. "I am hero tonight not to make a key note sibeob, but only to express my per sonal views, for which no ono elso will bo in nny measure responsible, for this speech has not been submitted to tho judg ment of any ouo until now. I shall speak, my fellow citizens, as a Republican, but with perfect respect to thoso who hold dif fering opinions. Indeed, I havonover had si much respect for Democrats as I havo now, or perhnps I should say I never had so much respect for so many Democrats as I have now. "That party has onco morooxhlbited its capacity to bo ruptured, nnd a party that cannot be split Is a public monaco. Whon the leaders of a party assembled in con vention depart from its traditional prin ciple and advocato doctrines that threaten the int 'grlty of tho government tho social order of our communities and tho security nnd sottndnoss of our flnnneo It ought to split, and it dignifies ltsolf when it does split. "A Imlt from any party is now nnd then a most reassuring incident nnd was never more reassuring and nover hnd bet ter cntiso than now, but these Democratic friends who nro disposed more or less directly to help tho cnuso of sound flnnnce in this campaign ought not to oxpect that tho Republican party will organize itself boenuso tho Democratic party has tils orirnuizcd itself. "Tho Republican party, the Itopubllcnn voter of sound money triumphs, as I be lieve it must in the nut nro of tho thing, constitute the body of tho successful army. Wo ought not, therefore, to lie asked to do anything that will aflect the solidity, tho loyalty, tho dlsefpltno or tlio enthusiasm of tho Republican party. "Tho Republican party fronts tho do structionist and trnmpets its doflnnco to the enemies of sound monoy. It will fight, how-over, without covering nny of tho in serlptions that nro upon Its banners. Whim tho houso ison firo.nnd many of our Democratic friends bollovo that to bo tho present domostle situation, tho tenant on the top floor ought not to ask tho tenant in tho basement to bury unvof his opin ions lioforo ho joins tho flro brigade, and of our Democratic friends, who renllzo as wo realize the gravity, tho far reaching con sequences of this campaign, ought not to ask tho Republican vnrty to reorganize it self to put nsldo any of the great prin ciples that it has advocated I ti order to win n voto. "Tho dofenso of tho constitution and of tho integrity of tho supreme court of tho United States nnd of tho president's powor and duty to enforce all of tho laws of tho United States without awaiting tho call or consont of tlio governor of nny state is nn Important nnd living issue in this campaign. "Tarlfl and coinage will bo of littlo mo' inent If our constitutional government Is overthrown. Whon we have a president who Iwlleves that it is neither Ills right nor his duty to soo that tho mail trains are not obstructed and that tho interstate oommerco has its free way Irrespective of stato lines nnd courts who fear to tiso our ancient and familiar power to restrain and punish law breakers, froa trado nnd f roo silver will beapproprlatoacoompnnlmonts of such nn administration and cannot add appreciably to tho national distress or tho national dishonor.

It is only because the presidents of the United States that, wo havo had, and tho ono wo liavo now, havo regarded it un der tho law as his public duty to main tain the gold basis, maintaining that parity between our silver nnd gold coins which the law declares is tho policy of tho gov ernment. "The silver quostion what is it? Do wo want silver because wo want more money, n larger circulating modlumf 'I haven't hoard anybody say so. Mr. Bryan Is not urging It upon that basis. If anybody were to seek to give that as a reason for wanting freo silver he would bo very soon confounded by tho statement that freo silver would put more gold out of circulation than tho mints of tho United States could possibly put iu in years of silver and tl. it instead of having more money wo woaid havo less. "It is not more dollars, but cheaper dollars thatnro wanted. It is a lower stan dard of valuo that they are demanding. They say gold has gono up until it has ceased to be u proper standard of values and they want sliver. But how do they want HP Now my friends, there is a great deal of tnlk about bimetallism of tho doublo standurd nud n great deal of con fusion in tlio tiso of thoso terms. "Bimetallism is tho use of tho two met als as money where thoy aro both used. By a doublo standard they mean that wo shall havo a gold dollar and a silver dol lar which shall bo units of valuo by which all property and nil wages and everything Is to bo measured. Now our fathers thought that when they used thoso two metals in coinage they must determluo the intrlnslo relative values of the two so that a comparison of the markets of the world would show just what relation ouo ounco of silver boro to one ounco of gold. "Now what do thoso peoplo propose to do ; to take any account of thousandths? No. When tho markets of tho world lis the relatlvo valuo of silver or gold at thlrty-ouo ounces of silver to ono ounco of gold thoy propose to say sixteen. Well, my friends, there has been nothing more amusing, and yet I fear that with tho thoughtless it may havo been In somo measures misleading, tlion tho repeated declaration of Mr. Bryan that everybody admitted thnt bimetallism was a good thing there is no debate on unit subject. nud that tho debate, of the campaign has como down to this by Groshain, that tho cheaper dollar drives the better one out. '1 will tell you what this government ran do alone. It cm fix lis money unit. It can declare by law what-shall bo tho relatlvo value of an ounce of gold nnd nn ounco of silver, but It cannot make that last declaration good.
