FOR OONQRESSlffAN-AT-LAHGE , JiOli, CHARLES E. FULLER Of Boon*. Po*^wwsl months the Republican press throughout the State have been advocating the nomination of Hon. Cbas. E. Fuller, of Boone County, as one of the Candidates lor Congressman-at-Large in this State, and urged on by these repeat­ ed and persistent calls from his friends, Senator Fuller has finally consented to announce himself as a candidate for the position. We say it without fear of contradiction that Hon. Chas. E. Fuller is the most available and strongest candidate that Jfarthcnj TOihoie cculu pmauui, uuu uiai this nomination belongs to Northern Illinois no one will attempt to deny, as here is whgre the Republican votes are famished that make Illinois a Republican state. The selection of Senator. Fuller would be a deserved compliment to the eminent abilities which fit him for the position. H® is a tried and true Republican, an able and fluent speaker, and as a parlia­ mentarian he has no superior in the State. Dis name would add strength to the State Ticket. For these and many other reasons the Flaiotealkr takes pleasure in support­ ing Senator Fuller for the position nam­ ed and from now un|}il the meeting of the State Convention, our aim will be to do ail in our power to secure his nomina­ tion. Again we say "For Congressman- at-Large, Hon. Charles E. Fuller, of Boone. Iff" Good wages, steady work and wefl- managed building and loan associations, are enabling hundreds of thousands of laboring men and mechanics in the United States to buy or build homes of their own. Free trade would inevitably reduce the American laborer's earnings by bringing them into direct competi­ tion with the lower wages of European countries; would render work uncertain, because it would close the doors of many lactones, and would unsettle our present •ery satisfactory financial condition. Hence, the wage-earner who has hip home, or who purposes to purchase one, should cast his fortunes with and hip ballot for the Republican party--the par­ ty that has proven itself the friend of the home and of the man who earns his broad in the sweat of his face. ' IW" It would seem, from a careful pe­ rusal of the Democratic newspapers of the country, that the reduction of wagep in any part of the United States give*- them a feeling akin to pleasure. A hun­ dred manufacturers may advance the pay of their operatives and not a word ip said; new industries may open and ad­ vertise for workmen, and they are silent as the grave; but if any one establish­ ment reduces its scale of wages or for an,\ reason is dbliged to close its doors, then- is hardly a Democratic newspaper writer who misses the opportunity to parade the facts in the telegraphic and editorial columns, too often in a spirit that pan- r takes of what some one has denominated 5 "%"ghoulish glee." I®" A country auctioneer, whose serv­ ices are in almost constant demand in Northern Illinois, asserts that seventy per cent of his sales during the autumD of 1891 were for cash. A few years ago, as he says, it was often difficu't to gpt money enough out of a thousand dollar farm auction to pay his commissions, and it generally took some hours after the sale closed to make out the notes and obtain satisfactory signatures. Now the farmers have the cash, and often settle with the clerk as fast as sales are made, so that but a half dozen or a doz­ en notes are given, and as a rule these require no signature save that of the maker. These facts indicate an improved condition on the part of the farmers, and •how that the tariff is not opressing them very severely. ~ Many newspapers in the State are ttrging their patrons "Trade at Home." Not a few of them run this phrase at the head of their local and editorial columns, and in pithy paragraphs argue that even j though local merchants and manufactur­ ers may charge a trifle more for certain wares than tradesmen in other cities, it jf . Iftill still be for the interests of their read „ «rs tffTiuild up their own town, trusting t^t^iture to right any possible ine- They reason that the home £wg^HWpill, in the long run, prove the •HHHKp§.that by encouraging local deal WpfcJPlnth the local trade they will make a town so thrifty that competition will eventually assure them of satisfactory prices. The Republican party is seeking to do the same thing for the nation that these newspapers would do for their own Ftowns, namely: create a home market Ibr all products, encourage manufactur- * ? «rs and tradesmen to provide for every need of the community, and bri^g the producer and the consumer so close to- K gether that they can work for each oth- I, er's benefit. The Gubernatorial Question, It is doubtful whether the State of Illi­ nois has ever had a Governor who has given it better administration of its affairs than the present one. There have been stirring times in the history of the. State when men have made names for themselves that will live long in history because of the circumstances in which they were placed, and their ability to cope with the circumstances, but it, is safe to say that no man in the history of the State has njpre carefully managed the business of the State, the common every-day affairs that make up the' work of the executive officer, than Gov. Fifer. His appointments to office have been of good men, and have please^ a larger por­ tion of the people than is common, and his attention to the details of his office has been uuflagging. In his speeches in the last campaign he found his way to the hearts of the people and wherever he has met them since he has made them his friends. The gather­ ing of miners to meet him a few weeks, ago, while he was on a banting expedi­ tion, and the complimentary resolutions passed by them without regard to party affiliation, and presented to him, show lu&L iu iiiB ue&wiieut oi Ui« Itiboi ituub ies in the State his sympathies have beeD with the working men, and^ that they know and appreciate this. These are some of the reasons very briefly told why Gov. Fifer should be re­ elected. It is admitted that he will be a strong candidate, stronger than he was at the last election, because he is better known, and stronger than any new man would be. In the next campaign the strongest man should be chosen, not be cause there is any danger of losing the State, but that the whole ticket being strong, the doubtful congressional and legislative districts-may be made safely republican. The difference between the votes that a strong or a weak candidate for Governor would get might make the difference of a Congressman in this dis­ trict and in other districts of the State and the Republican party cannot afford to overlook this. This county and section is practically solid for Gov. Fifer, and the nomination of any other man would be a disappoint­ ment to the party.--Moliae Dispatch. I®" What would be thought of a news­ paper in the interior of Illinois that should advise its readers from week to week, year after year, to rush off to Chi­ cago for the purchase of all goods, and assure them that their local merchant* and manufacturers were a set of robbers? What would be the effect upon the town were this advice to be followed? Would it not close the doors of the merchants, ruin the manufacturing industries, com­ pel the clerks and operatives and labor­ ers emploved in these institutions to seek work elsewhere, check improvements, impair the value of business property and bring disaster to the community? Such a course wojjld be condemned by every good citizen^&nd such a newspaper would be deemed a public enemy. And .vet the newspaper that argues for free trade, that declares the levying of a tariff to be robbery, that persists that Amer­ ican merchants and manufacturers are defrauding their patrons, and insist? that we should buy where we can buy the cheapest, and parades long rows of fig­ ures to show that broadcloth aftjJ other goods, that are in the nature of a luxury, are cheaper in England than in America, are trying to do for the nation precisely what might be done for an average Illi­ nois town. Competition and common sense can be depended upon to ultimate­ ly make prices right in every town and in any nation. People will go to larger towns to procure articles not kept by local merchants or made by local, manu­ facturers, just as the nation now sends abroad for tea, coffee, spices, and other commodities not produced in our soil and climate, but the publications that in­ sist upon universal free trade are making the mistake of the newspaper that urges its patrons to desert their home dealers and spend their money only with the big raetropo'itan merchants. I®* Wednesday last Senator Sherman was nominated for the United States Senate by the Republican members of the Ohio Legislature. The nomination is timely »nd is a political act that honors the Republicans of Ohio as much as it does Mr. Sherman. I®" On the Gth the President appoint­ ed the Inter-State Commission. W. R Morrison, of this State, was appointed as the Democratic member. It is under stood that this nomination is extremely distasteful to M. Springer and Gen. Pal­ mer, the two other Democratic leaders in Illinois. ' . HP*Another step in the disfranchisement ;4df the Republican party in New York, Was made on Tuesday, when immediately Vpon the organization of the Senate, within fifteen minutes a Republican was unseated, and a Democrat was seated in his place. This gives the Democrats con­ trol of both branches of the Legislature. It remains to "be seen how long the people Olf the country will submit to the frauds, aorruptioD gaud political outrages that are peirolillMt when the Democrats are H pow* jrruptionpolitical re perpeHH|L 'when the iS^On last Wednesday, Hon.,Daniel Shepard, Secretary of the Republican State Central Committee, died at his home in Chicago. He had filled that position for twenty-One years, and was recognized as one of the best politicians in the country. He was an intimate and confidential friend of Gen. Logan, and for years was his private secretary. I®* It is doubtful whether the State of llliqois have ever had a Gov^nor who has given it better administration in its affairs than the present one, says the Mo line Dispatch. It is safe to say that no man in the history of the State has more carefully managed the business of the State, the common every-day affairs that make up the work of an executive office, than Governor Fifer. His appointments to office have been of good men. His at atenfton to the details ot4}is office has been unflagging.

It is admitted that be will be a strong candidate, stronger than he Was at the last election, because be is better known and stronger than any new man would be.

Among the first railroads built in the United States was a little line about twenty miles in lengths In the course of time a big tunnel line was constructed through the same country. The original line be­ came merely a branch. For itiany years it was run in a cheap way, with one locomotive, one -enarineer and two or three freight cars Finally a new general manager was appointed. He had been, in the office b]»t a week When he sent for the one lone conductor who Jiad held the posi­ tion ever since the road was built. "I would like to have your resigna­ tion;" said the general manager* when the conductor appeared. :'My i-odKualion?" iuqoiibd the con­ ductor in astonishment. "Yes, sir; youra." "What for, pray?" "Well, I want to make some changes and get new blood in the line," was the general manager's reply, ,CT . "I won't resign," answered the con­ ductor. "Then I will be compelled to discharge you, a step which for. your sake I had hoped I would be saved from taking." 'Young man, you will not* discharge me. I own a controlling interest in the stock of this railroad and elect the presi­ dent and board of directors. I shall have you fired." The old conductor did really own the majority of the stock, and, as he said, put in his own board of directors and president.--Atlanta Constitution. An Ideal Studio. In my experience there is nothing like a gondola to paint from, especially in the summer--and it is the summer time. Then all these Venetian cabs are gay in their sunshiny attire, and have laid aside their dark, -hooded cloaks, their rainy day mackintoshes--their felsi-- and have pulled over their shoulders a frail awning of creamy white, perched upon a delicate iron framework, with snowy curtains at sides and back, under which you paint in state or lounge lux­ uriously, drinking in the beauty about you. I have in my wanderings tried all sorts of moving things to paint from; tartanas in Spain, volantes in Cuba, broad sailed luggers in Holland, mules iu Mexico, and cabs everywhere. One I remember with delight--an old nighthawk in Amster­ dam--that offered me not only its front seat for my eatel, its arm rest for my water bottle, and a pocket in the door flap for brushes (I am likely to expect all these conveniences in even the most dis­ reputable of cabs), but insisted on giving me the additional luxury of a knot hole in its floor for waste water. 1 , But with all this a cab is no£ a gon­ dola.--F. Hopkinson Smith in Scribner's. Only One on His Side. A capital story is told of a well known judge who is noted for his fondness for conveying to jurors in his charges to them his own opinions with regard to the merits of the case. In one case he had done so with great plainness, but to his amazement the jury remained out for hours without coming to an agree­ ment. The judge inquired of the bailiff what was the matter, and learned from him that one juror was holding out against the other eleven. He sent for the jury at once, and stat­ ing to the jurors that he had plainly intimated how the case ought to be de­ cided, said he understood the one juror was standing out against the other eleven. He proceeded to rebuke the juror sharply. The obstinate juror was a nervous little man, and as soon as the judge was done he rose and said: "My lord, may I say a word?" "Yes, sir," said the indignant judge; "what have you to say?" "Well, what I wanted to say is, I am the only fellow that's on your sid e."-- London Tit-Bits. The story told of Col. William C. Oates member of Congress from the Thitd Dis­ trict of Alabama, which is to the effect that after losing his right arm before Richmond, Va., Aug. 16, 1864, while commanding the 15th Alabama, he. lay for weeks in a private southern home nursed by the family, and by the time he was convalesent he wanted to marry the eldest daughtCT.x She did not view his suit with favor, however, and at length the mother said consolingly, pointing to the cradle: "Never mind Colonel, just wait for so-and-so; you can, have her." And when that infant grew up sure enough Col. Oates married her. Administrator's Notice of Filing Final Settlement. QTATE OF ILLINOIS. Mr. Henry County. 1 ' 8.

These are: a habit of lying on the right side, short breath, pain or dis­ tress in side, back or shoulder, irregular pulse, asthma, weak and hungry spalls, wind in stomach, swelling of ankles or dropsy, oppression, dry cough and smothering.
