Thursday. That the decision will be on the side of law and order we have but little doubt. Parson* and hi* Rang will pay the penalty of their crime on the 11th, is certainly the wish or aH law abiding citizens. While the Illinois Habitual Criminal Act law is virtually a dead letter, Massachusetts Is just putting Into"operation a similar act. under which a criminal on a third conviction Is sentenced to twenty years In the penitentiary. Such laws hare so far taca son effective, because rarely en­ forced. |^N« sooner bad President- Cleve­ land finished "swtngiag around the tilde* fiban Jeff Davis, the unhung arcti-traitor of the great rebellion, be­ gins to swing and expatiate to tbe Southern people about tbe glory and honor of Southern traitors \od treason. It every day becomes more apparent that the soldier who arrested Jeff io petticoats while fleeing from Rich­ mond, failed in doing hie duty as a Midler and a patriot. 'This seem* ta be tbe time of talking about western water ways im­ prove men t. The Peoria Illinois river oonventlon and tbe Quincy Mississippi river gathering have been held and on the 30th Inst, there was held at Mem­ phis, Tennessee, % meeting to organ­ ize work In favor of a general improve­ ment of the western water ways. If the sentiment of the whole western and northwestern country can be made known to Congress, we believe tbat the next twenty-five years will see such Improvements in water transpor­ tation as will regulate the railroads as • o.law can do.--Sandwich JFree Prest, i9*Tlie Chicago Journal *ays that %'the man who can carry New York State is the man the Jtepublleans should nominate for President. This is the case In a nut shell. Who is the man?1' A prominent politician,and Illinois State official, said, iu an inter­ view the other day, be believed either Blaine. Sherman or Lincoln could carry New York If nominated. "My personal preferences are for James 6. Blaine," he said, "but I believe tbe nomination of Robert T. Lincoln would brine out all the pure American MDtiment there Is In tbe country. If there is any one thing which would make the Negro of the South fight if accessary, for the right to vote it is tbe name of Lincoln. Nominate the •on of 'Honest Old Abe' fand tbe Negros will be aroused andsend up such a vote that the 'solid south' will ]|e a thing of Democratic joy gene from that party forever. l©*When you want newspaper fa- Tors you strike your 'home paper,' don't you? If yeu want your town boomed and property Increased in value, you expect your home paper to do it, don't you? You kick because your home paper has not as much reading mfctter In it as tbe "city paper," don*t you? Still, on the whole, you think your home paper is a 'mighty good thlu* for the town,' don't you? And you preclude tbe borne paper from think- Ing the town is a good thing for It, by not giving it sufficient patronage, don't you? Yeu would not expect tbe home paper circulating only one or two thousand copies, to give as much matter as the Chicago paper circula­ ting 30,000, 40,000 or 100,000 copies, would you? You frequently sneak off to the city to get your job work, to •*ve a few cents, don't yeu ? Do you think tbe home newspaper publisher caa live on wind and get out a red-hot paper? We should remark not. Do you think he can ever digest the con­ soling fact tbat his paper is a good thing for the town when he receives ••thing lo return ? caa't do It, can lMFTbis Is our day to kick, isn't it? Doa't you think you can do your share without going into bankruptcy?

HGTOHI&B, Sec. *. B T The beautiful village of Hebron Is situated on the Kenosha Division of tbe Chicago aud Northwestern Rail­ road in the northern part of the couu- ty. The growth and advancement of the town for the past ten or twelve years has been great, owing to tbe fact that its inhabitants as a class, are wide awake, energetic, and devote their time to tbe prosperity and progress of their surroundings. Of the early his­ tory we have but little to relate, our greatest delight being in the present, and the majority are *ware of the trl-* als and hardship to be undergone by the pioneer. Mrs. Harriet B. Tryon was the first white woman to set foot In the limits of the township and gave to the town its present name, the name being suggested at a prayer meeting by tho singing of old hymn, "Hebron." The first post, office was located at the home of Mr. John Adams, said home being then a log hut, Mrs. Adams stored the mail In her bureau drawer, and every person receiving a letter was requested to advance ten cents for postage before being allowed the privilege of reading It. It was more satisfying to write than to re­ ceive letters In those days. The first store was built In 1860 by M. S. Good- sell, who ruled supreme for about six­ teen years, doing an Immense business in the general store line. He was also tbe accommodating postmaster for a term of years. About tbe same tiino there was a blacksmith and wagon shop built by a Mr. Rysden. who after carrying on the business for eight or ten years sold out to Wm. Chapman. This for a time composed tbe "busi­ ness" of tbe town, but with the pros­ perity of the country, other places of business were added in their order un­ til to-day we find HEBRON AS IT is. One of the principal attractions of tbe town is the pleasant and commodi­ ous public school building, which occu­ pies a prominent place on Main St The original cost of tbl# structure was about $2700, and consisted then of but two rooms. The past summer the room bag been remodeled, and two ex­ tra rooms added at a cost of 82,000. Three of the rooms are now occupied. Mr. John Conant, tho principal. Is a graduate of Oshkosh College. He has been with us but a short time, but has by bis prepossessing ways gained many friends, and Is proving himself a thor­ ough and efficient teacher. His en­ rollment shows a list of 33 names. Miss Etta Torrence is the Instructor in the intermediate room. Her repu­ tation as a teacher is well known and needs no comment. She has 50 names enrolled. Miss Laura Mason presides successfully ij^ the primary depart­ ment over a inkle school of 31 pupils. Tbe beautiful stretch of country sur­ rounding tbe village Is rich in culture and Improvements, Dairying being the principal occupation of tbe farm­ ing community. Many of tbe farms are large and all are, with but few ex­ ceptions, under a prosperous manage­ ment. The town Is made more attractive and inviting by a number of elegaat residences. Those noted, mostly, for beauty and elegance may be found on Main St., and maple Ave. Two spacious churches furnish a place of worship for the Methodist aofl Presbyterian denominations. THE BUSINESS AND BUSINESS MEN. Oo the north side we find the cheese factory of H. W. Mead, rented and carried on by Milo Munger, He is re­ ceiving cream from three cream wag­ ons which brought in and manufac­ tured into butter amounts to nearly 600 pounds daily. He also has three wagons running for skim milk which bring in dally about 10,000 pounds, be sides tbe milk delivered by patrons, which amounts to nearly 12,000 pounds daily. The business is conducted by Henry Munger and bis able force ot assistants. H. W. Mead figures prominently in business, being one of the founders of tbe village and owning at one time all the land that the town now occupies. He is dealing very extensively in lum­ ber, feed, flour, lime and cement. This part of the business Is conducted by Norrls E. Chandler. When in want of anything in this line call on "Chan." Mr, Mead Is also connected with Henry Skinner In tbe breeding of Percbeon and Clydesdale stock. It is worth tbe time of those interested to call at their barns and look over tbe Imported stock, where Skinner or Loyd may be found and ready to give all tbe information wanted. The harness business is carried by Delos Blodgett where anything caB be found from a hame strap to a bar ness. Heary Rowe Is the man who repairs the soles and will manufacture a shoe or boot warranted to wear a lifetime. Dr. A. F. Turner, a graduate in bis profession, is doing good to those who are afflicted with any of the aliments known to ths medical fraternity. We then orosi the railroad and tbe first to meet Is I.

Merry, where can be found a complete line of drugs and druggist's sundries and everything usually kept in a first class drug store. '"Meivey's" gentlemanly manner, combined with order, neatness and taste in every par­ ticular and his hearty "call again," will bring you again every time. F. M. Shoudy ruus a first class furni­ ture store. He keeps on baud a full line of furniture ajid undertakers' goods and sell* at bottom prices. In one corner of the furniture store you will find "Frencby," as he Is familiarly called, or H. J. Vincelette, the jeweler, who will repair a watch,clock, or any­ thing in tbe jewelry line in a work­ manlike maimer aud warrant It.

Herrlck a graiuate of Cleveland Medical College, although a young man has had a great deal oi ex­ perience and judging from the amount of riding he Is doing he Is having bis share of tbe patronage.

Is having a large trade, bis work speak­ ing for itself. Mrs. Gronzo Is a first class dressmaker, and Is deserving of a share of the ladies' patronage. . The meat market on the corner ran by John P.

The millinery store under the man­ agement of Miss Rose Buchanan, for­ merly of Lodi, Wis., Is a pride to our town and we bespeak for her a good trade, judging from the extensive stock she has en hand of the latest styles. She has associated with ber Mies Wells, an exffellent dressmaker, who has all the work she can do. W. R. Lane & Co, are doing good business lir the grocery line' and have In connection a meat market.

Constipation Is a universal and most troublesome dis> order. It causes Headache, Mental De­ pression, impairs the Sight and Hearing, destroys the Appetite, and, when long continued, causes Enlargement of the Liver, Inflammation of the Bowels, and Piles. Constipation is speedily cured by Ayer's Pills. For a number of months I was troubled with Costiveness, in conse­ quence of which I suffered from Loss of Appetite, Dyspepsia, and a disordered liver. My eyes also troubled me. I was compelled to wear a shade over them, and, at times, was unable to bear ex- posure to the light. I was entirely CURED BY USINQ three boxes of Ayer's Pills. I have no hesitation in pronouncing this medicine to be the best cathartic ever made.-- James Eccles, Poland, Ohio. I suffered from Constipation, and, con­ sequently, from Headacne, Indigestion, and Piles, for years. Ayer's Pills, which I took at the suggestion of a friend, have given me effectual relief. I commenced taking tliis remedy two months ago, and am now free from Constipation, the re­ moval of which has caused my other troubles to disappear, and greatly im­ proved my general health, -s- W.

What a funny name for a medicine! .Nevertheless it in very significant as appli^l to the article. Bile, according to Webster, is "a yel­ lowish bitter viscid nausceous fluid, secreted by the liver." Whenever the liver does not act properly this fluid is retained in the* blood and poisons the whole system, and sal lowi u>ss and misery is the result.
