This class of men,as well as the women, who unscrupulously lend themselves to the diabolical alliance for the purpose of breaking up family life, should be made an example of by some upright judge, for the honor ol the legal profession. Some Republican speakers always think it necessary to enter into a defense of their party against the Democratic «harges that "it is the party of* monop­ oly." and doing so they seem to concede that the Democrats are against mono­ poly. If those weak talkers would only consider the situation they would find that the Democratic party is essentially the agenqy of the monopoly.

Hopkins &*-Nominat«d by Acclimation. The delegates from the five counties of thi« Congressional District met at Elgin on Thursday last. At 1 o'clock they convened in Stewart's Hall where they y>ere called to order by the chairman of the central committee, H. T. Rockwell, of St. Charles. Dr. P. S. Whitman, of Rpone, was made temporary chairman R. W. Coon, of Lake and John Brown, of DeKalbvtemporary secretaries. R. P. Ooodwin, of Kane, J. W. Haw­ thorn, of MeHenry, J. H. Keeler, of Boone, John L. Pratt, of DeKalb, and C. B. Sewell, of Lake, were selected an a committee on permanent organization and credentials. The credentials were found to be all right and the temporary organisation made permanent. Isaac Ellwood, of DeKalb, placed be­ fore the convention for Congressman the name of A. J. Hopkius, of Kane, who was nominated by a rising vote. A letter from Washington accepting and compli­ menting the district was read. A committee on resolutions consisting ot J. C. Cook, of Boone, G. S. Robinson, of DeKalb, A. H. Lowrie, of Kane, H. Cook, of LAke, and J. D. Clark, of MeHen­ ry, reported briefly endorsing Harrison, Hopkins and the position of the party leaders on the tariff. F. S. Whitman, of Boone, A. Ellwood, of DeKalb, Ira Curtis, of MeHenry, G. R. Lamb, of Lake aw H. T. Rockwell, of Kane were «dect^-t the Congressional committee. 1 v x , W. S. Fraiier, of Aurora, was endorsed as member of the state central committee as was the candidacy of Daniel Dustin, of Sycamore, for the sub-treasurerfibip. m I®* When it was stated some weeks since in the newspapers that the building of a milk pipe line from a point in New York State to New York city was pro­ jected, there was a rather general smile, and the matter. was treated as a joke. The projectors were, however, it seems, in sober earnest. A company with a cap ital of f500,0()0 has, it is announced been formed at Middletown, N. Y., for the purjiose of constructing such a line. The proposed method of forwarding the milk is in cylindrical tin cans surrounded and propelled by water, and the promoters of the scheme assert that the time of trans­ portation for a distance of 100 miles will not exceed an hour, while the profit will be about one cent a gallon. Fire and Water thinks if this sort of thing goes on we need not be surprised ere 16ng to find New York the converging point not only of oil, natural gas und milk pipe lines, but of whisky ducts from the blue grass regions, and beer ducts from "St. Louis, Cincinnati, and Milwaukee. The pipe manufacturers may well fori cheerful at the prospect before them. tGPA. bill for the errection of postoffice ^buildings in towns whose postal receipts s $3,000annually has been referred ie House committee of Congress and favorably reported upon. The me involves the expenditure of not more than f2,000,000 annually, under the direction of the Postmaster General. The. chairman of the committe estimates that the number of places entitled to buildings would not be over 2,000. The bill provides that the Postmaster General is authorized to receive free gifts of land where obtainable, and in no case to pay over $5,000 for a site. W"Bradstreets says: Special tele­ grams indicate, except in the lower Miss­ issippi valley, a widespread improvement in the distribution of general merchandise. This has been aided by nearly a fortnight of seasonable weather. Jobbing is fAirly active in dry goods, groceries, hardware, boots and shoes, throughout the east, the central werft, southwest, west and northwest, and is backed by an increase in the retail and re-assortment demand* Mercantile collections at several western cotters are easier for the first time in some months. Business failures number 147 in the United |State», this week * ag unst 166 laBt week, and 181 this we» k I et year. Canada had thirty-eight this week against twenty-nine last week. The total number of failures in the United States, January 1 to date,4,005, against : 4,245 in a Jike portion in 1889. The re-noiniuution of Hon. A. J Hopkins, to represent the Fifth District, tmo more years in the House of Represen­ tatives, at Washington, is a most de­ served tribute of confidence in an able and honored public servant. Mr. Hopkins has carried with him into official life the 'same high qualities erf mind and charac­ ter that gave hin so conspicous a place in bis profession. He has devoted him­ self with rare assiduity and zeal to his pablic duties. He has now an enviable place among the representatives from ^lis own state, among whom are the lead­ ing men of the party and stands to-day with the men who occupy the front-rank in our National Councils. While he dis­ plays that broad and liberal statesman ' ship that places first the general interest of the entire country, he has been singu­ larly §nd faithfully attentive to the de fhauds of his own constituents. He has endeavored wisely and honestly to recon­ cile all the dissensions in the ranks of bis party in the district and has made recom ueudations for official position with great tact and discretion. His best friends have shown themselves willing to forego and forget their own local preju­ dices and disputes in order to insure har­ mony in the Republican ranks and make ius nomination for another tern as free as possible from all cause of bitterness. Factional contests have been entirely suspended in order that the united voice Ot the whole district might be hoard in , Ids support. We congratulate hitp upon bis re-nomination and we more heartily congratulate the Republicans of the Fifth District for the wisdom of their action.-- A Stanley Book Worthy of the Hams. One of the most entertaining books published for many a day* is "Heroes of the Dark Continent" and complete Pic­ turesque Africa, embracing the history of Africa and its people for more than one thousand years, illustrated with 500 scenes, colored plates and numerous maps.. Also, including the complete life of Henry M. Stanley and all his famous explorations and discoveries, including his last and grandest expedition for the relief of Emin Pasha. The entire work is issued in pne large and beautiful volume of 576 quarto pages, equal to 1,200 octavo pages, at the low price of only $'i,00. The book is having an enormous circulation, over 200,000 copies having been sold the first seven weeks. It ap­ pears to be making a profound impres­ sion upon the Christian world, judging by the editor of the Canada Methodist, and other distinguished persons. The publishers are responsible and well re­ ported by the Commercial agencies of Dun and Bradstreet. This is evidently an unusuallly favorable opportunity for persons desiringa rapidly paying agency.

Druggists everywhere report that the sales of the Restorative Nervine a nervine food and inedieine-^are astonishing; ex­ ceeding anything they ever had, while it gives universal satisfaction in headache, nervousness, sleeplessness, sexual debility, backache, poormemory, fits, dizziness, etc. lay lor Hros., of Bryan, O.; Amber & Murphy, of Battle Creek, Mich.; C. B. Woodworth & Co., of Fort Wayne, lud>, and hundreds of others state that thev never handled any medicine which sold so rapidly, or gave kucIi satisfaction. Trial bottles of this great medicine and book on Nervous Diseases free at G. W. BesLy's who guarantees and recommends it. A REMARKABLE LETTER. The following letter from Mr. W A Thomson, of Columbus, Wis., is pecul­ iarly interesting : "My wife," says he, "has been treated for her head, stomach and nervous prostration by three doctors in New York, two in Chicago, one in Phila­ delphia, one in Cincinnati, and at the large institute in Buffalo for sixteen months. They all failed. But one bot­ tle of Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine helped her wonderfully." This should be used in all headaches, backaches, changes of life, nervous disturbance*, fits, rheu­ matism, etc. Ask at Besley's drug store for a free trial bottle and Dr. Miw> Mn. txx& th* Ji«rv«* and Heart. _ ^ |Ws Do With Our World recently, ottered a prize of $20 for the beet brief answer to the above question. A very large num­ ber «f short essays were handed in. The prim Winner prove*! to be Ella Wheeler WHeox, and the fallowing is the induc­ tion: The foundation of society rests on its homes. The success of our homes rests on the wives. Therefore, first of all, teach our girls how to be successful wives. Be­ gin in their infancy to develop their char- acters. Teach them that jealousy is an immorality and gossip a vice. Train .them to keep the smallest promise as sacitodly as an oath, and to speak of Bople only as they would speak to them, 'eaeh them to look for the best quality in every one they meet, and to notice other people's faults only to avoid them. Train them to do small things well and to delight in helping others, and instil constantly into their minds the necessity for sacrifice for others' pleasure as a means of soul development. Once given a firm foundation of character like this, which the poorest as well as the richest of parents can give to their girls, and no matter what necessity arises they will be able t6 rise above it.
