(AWERTISEuHIENT.) "VERY LIKE LINCOLN.' Under the above (heading, Governor Patterson, of Tennessee, make® iris' bow before ia Wellington audience in a, Ldqiior Trade advertisement. "In the name of temperance," "in the name of morality," "in the name of our .women," "im the name of the paibMc welfare," this saintly mlani protests against tlie iniquities of Wo. BiiSbrtion., with of'cfleaginous and stilted rhetoric which, thei ecstatic Trade Adovcate declares to be "lUncomimonly.Sike" the • Linicoln, Ifjorgery. It is iso rare to find any authority honestly cited by the Trade ttat to" this "efxpep*idnia4'" *ea«©? :.it dls worth while to examine what the witness' credientiafe are. Ex-Governor Patterson's right to pose as >a champion of morality will (sufficiently-.appear from the following points m M& recent record: —(l) On ithe atfli (November, 1908, one of the noblest, men, dhu American ptulblliic life —United States' Senator Cormaek—was shot down in cold blood in the streets of Nashville, Tennessee, his only offence being that' die had stood up against the poffiticaU corruption and (tlie lamtess 'liquor traffic of whnh. Gioviernor Patterson was the champ~ ion. So, revolting was' the enm-*, and so clear- thie evidence, that even an American jury found 110 difficulty in doing its duty. The iniurderar was convicted', ondy to RECEIVE A PARDON FBOM GOVERNOR PATTERSON. •' '..-.'■ (2) So disgusted were the .aw-abid-ting elements in the- Democratic Party dm Tennessee with the corruption and thiff Bawlessness of this, piou» Governor and his accompMces that thoy resolved to nominate independent caiididlateis of their mm. The Patterson liquor .madfttie' thereupon held a "bogus primary," i.e., a "faked" and ifranidulent. meeting of electors, to secure, itlhe party nomination, fcr its
ily withdrew, and the candidate' put forward an : his place- by the liquor machine was cffuJiimgly defeated'. A majority of members' pledged to maintain 'and enforce the: prohibitory Jaw was returned to iWhe- Tennes.se© As■semMy at (the sarnie' time. (5) The defeated illiquor man predicted that .Captain. SBooper would never be laPowed itoi take bis 1 s**at as Governor. Whether they had wi view ithle same means that were employed to remove Senator 1 Cbrmaek, and whether they were neliyinig upon Governor Patterson ibo save tibe murderer's neck m the event of a conviction, are questions iiM<M /we cannot answer. Such is the mam wfiio, in violation of hiis oath of office, has been stiro/diously striving to -wreck the prohibitory law of Tennessee State, but. has so outraged all' the decent elements of the Skate that he bass- wrecked his party instead;, and given tin© Republicans their first victory for thirty years! > Such is the mani whom the Trade has set iip to preach morality to tiie people of Wellington, and decfares. to he "unoomimonly like" Lincoln! Judge the Trade by its advo-. cat'es and its' witnesses, and STRIKE OUT THE TOP LINE ON BOTH PAPERS.

Goode, 107 Vicrtorda St.i GhriistcJiurch, N.Z., says:—"For 8 years Chamberlain's Tablets have kepi me from those terrible bilious attacks from which I suffered for years.
