[Entered in the Post-Chic e as a Newspape:
Protection for Americans.
Not only does every intelligent and
patriotic American citizen desire pro-
tection for our vhrious manufacturing
when he must demand, as well, protec-
tion from the debased hordes of cheap
laborers flooding our shores.
.[t is even more fatal to our national
prosperity, to have these pauper and
largely criminal classes pouring into
this country by the tens of thousands,
as they have been doing, than for them
to remain at home. and have the pro-
duct of the few who can do factory
labor for“ pauper pay, sent over here
free of duty. Cannot the dullest mind
comprehend the destructive evils of
both systems. Free trade in goods, in
fact, is far less to be dreaded, than
1755. trade in these undesirable immi-
grants. Solin the coming eledlion, let
strict partisanship for once be thrust
aside and our votes cast onlv for such
candidates as will stand by Protection
for American Manufacturers and Amer-
ican Workingmen. '
‘Let good government and protection
be the issue.
zen will deem it such, and keep it con-‘
stantly in mind from now until sunset
of November 6. ‘ Let every voter who
has the restoration of ‘business pros-
perity and the cause of good govern-
ment at heart, yield to the dictates of
party and cast his vote accordingly.
And may the best man win.

tired and unrefreshed, and with a bad
taste in the month.
There is restlessness, trembling of
the voice on excitement, irritability, a
dull, cloudy sensation ,often attended
by disagreerble feelings in the head
and eyes, and the mind'is easily con-
fused. At times there is '

and in the buck and-palpilation of the
heart.
There is . nn‘iaiof force,'energy
and power anu 'uc ambition is gene.
These symptoms mean that the per-
son is suffering from nervous debility,
and that the whole nervous system is be-
coming exhausted :and enfeebled. 'The
consequence of this condition are most
fearful. They cannot be depicted in lan-
guage too strong, for the very hope of
any success in life depends upon the
person‘s recovery! ‘Many‘ a physical
and mental wreck can be traced direct-
ly to this disease. , .
And what is the cure for this terrible
calamity? What can they do to get
well ? ' ‘
There is no man living who has done
so much for this large class of patients
as Dr. Greene, nor is thereany branch
Of his practice in which this specialist
has obtained such marvelous results.
Seeing in his large practice the terrible
results of this disease, and knowing the
inability of other physicans to cope
with it. and indeed thefailu‘i'e of most
of them to recognize such a complaint,
the Doctor determined to make this do-
partment a special study. He searched
the laboratories of the world, devoting
years of study and enormous sums of
money to learn positively v the actions
of every known medicine on these
parts. 3...:
His success has far exceeded his
greatest expectations. _ .The, combina-
tion of harmless, vegetable; "remedies
he has suceeded in bringing together
and compounding for this complaint, is

THIS FEABFUL AFFLICTION,
and under their vitalizing influence the
downhearted and despondent person
soon begins to feel a new life within
him, the eyes sparkle with health, the
nerves become strong and steady, the
mind regains its cheerfulness, the pal-
lor and hollow cheeks disappear and
the blood becomes rich and pure, send—
ing renewed vigor and health through-
out the system.
He feels himself ready for any un-
dertaking; the gloom and depression
have gone, the step is firm and buoyant
and the heart cheerful with how and
ambition. This is what Dr. Greene’s
remedies are doing every day for these
poor sufferers. They are making
strong, able men out of weak, nervous
sufferers, and surely no greater or
nobler work was ever accomplished.
Physicians have always been 3 in the
habit of prescribing poisons for this
disease, and the harm done by them is
incalculable. Such poisonous drugs do
not in the least build up and strengthen
the system, they only impoverish the
blood, weaken still more the already
exhausted nerves, and make the patient
worse than before taking them. Com-
mon sense will tell all thinking persons
that harmless vegetable remedies 'wh'ich
give renewed strength and vigor, are
what are required :_ in this, as well as all
chronic and nervOus diseases. ‘.
Thousands of unhappy sufierers all

Upon the probating of his estate it was
found that all of his stock save two

were past due with accrued interest
and all but Mrs. Hill were pressing to
have their loans paid. A syndicate was

looked over the property and found its
cars, its rails, etc., on its main line,
practically worn out and nothing in
good condition except its depot, its
horses and the Winnipauk branch.
They candidly believed it valuable only
for its franchise and that not really
worth its indebtedness. Nevertheless,
it was concluded to bid exactly the
total of its debts for it. Its sale at
auction was advertised in all the Nor-

Worse than that, the N orwalk Tramway
company, which had been some two
months in very successful operation,
was ascertained to have diverted the
greater proportion of this road’s former
patronage and was fast running it into
total bankruptcy.
' The directors were called together,
including Mr. E. C. Benedict, then
supposed to be slated for the Demo-
cratic nomination for governor of this
state. The alternatives were inexorable
to either stop operating the road or re-
duce the wages of its employees. Mr.
E. J. Hill, who had been elected its
president and manager, led off by pro-_
posing a two-thirds reduction of his own
saliry, and from an all around two dol-
lars a, day for superintendent and to
the employees, the latter were reduced
to $1.75 for conductors, $1.60 for driv-
