The farmers of the couutiy are bearing the burden of taxation, paying the yankee pensions, and getting in a worse fix evory year. T’is a time to call a halt, io the usurpations of plutociacy and say “So far shall thou come and no further.’’ The only way to have our laws made right is to send our own men to make them.

TliQie is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until tho fast few years was supposed to bo incurable For a great many years doctors pronounced it ft local disease, and by constantly failing to cure with meal treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co..
