Shall it bo McKinloy and Bliss vs Bryan and Hogg? And still new cotton mills continue to start work in South Carolina, and still the expansion feeling in that Stat© continues to grow proportionately. Mr. Addicks, of Delaware, would like to know what business it is of any body's whether Senator Clarke, of Montana, bought his office or not. This subject is a tender one to Mr. Addicks. It really looks as though the Demo crats might have to resort to chloro form in order to secure some one for the Vice Presidential nomination this fall. Hypnotism has failed completely. The attack of Governor Tanner, of Illinois, on Senator Cullom, of that state, is said to have made certain the latter's re-election. It is hoped that it has. Cullom is a very hard worker and an unusually able and intelligent man. Attorney General Griggs has notified the world that Spain's obligations to private companies in the Philippines were paid off once for all by the $20,- 000,000. If they want any satisfaction they must goto Spain for it. Mr. Harrison, of Chicago, has de clined to run for Governor this fall. He evidently thinks that the signs are against Democratic success this year and fears that he may be carried down in Mr. Bryan's ruin. The primacy in the House, so long possessed by Maine, has drifted over to lowa. Beuides the Speaker, the names of Hepburn, Cousins, Lacey, Hull and Dolliver are almost as well-known throughout the country as were Reed, Boutelle and Dingley. It is an outrage on public decency that such murders as occurred in Ken tucky recently should be permitted to take place. It disgraces the country both at home and abroad and steps should be taken to prevent the constant recurrence of such affairs. If Secretary Gage is really to be turned out, the President out to be informed. Why doesn't Mr. Pulitzer send a marked copy of his paper to the White House, with an explanation that it is really an important journal of civilization. According to all reports, Mr. Bryan is dissatisfied with the gubernatorial situation in Kentucky and has called a halt in the revolutionary tactics of Mr. Goebel. The trouble with Mr. Bryan is that everybody knows that he does everything only as a matter of political expediency. He is not moved by sympathy with the insulted laws but only by fears that he will lose the state this fall. There arc some differences of opinion in regard to the form of the shipping bill now pending in Congress. In its present shape it gives subsidies for speed and capacity and as such it "vould inure principally to the benefit of' ' he great Atlantic passenger lines, already rich and prosperous. Another fore proposed, however, is to give premiums for the number of tons of freight carried. This would produce slower ships but it would enormously increase our foreign trade and our merchant marine. v The ictters sent by Secretary Gage to Congress show plainly that the ad ministration does not shrink from let ting the country know all the facts in any ease. A less verile man than the Secretary would have concealed some of the letters on the ground that they were confidential and thus avoided placing weapons in the hands of un scrupulous foes. Not that there is the slightest reason to suppose that the Secretary was influenced in the least by these letters. Anyone can write to yone. Xiuckleri's Arnica Salvs .

"Mosc Carpenter" and myself want it distinctly understood that neither of us is the author of "David Ilarum" The kindling wood mill is doing a rushing business at present, disposing of about thirty-live cords of wood daily. The lains of last week, took the ice out of the s'reams and brought a six foot flood at this place which caused consider able damage to the Jerry Run railroad, stopping the big mill for several days. The flood also wrecked "Danny's dog house." The diphtheria scare has about abated. The schools have re-opened and social intercourse has assumed its normal condi tion. A few cases of sore throat are re ported but nothing of a serious nature ! exists at present. JOB. Glorious News. Comes from I'r. D. B. Cargile, of Washita. I. T. He writes: "Four bottles of Electric Hitters has cured Mrs. Brewer of scrofula, which had caused her great suffering for years. Terrible sores would break out on her head and face, and the best doctors could give no help; but her cure is complete and her health is excellent." This shows what thousands have proved—that Electric Hitters is the bast blood purifier known. Its the supreme remedy for eczema, tetter, salt rheum, ulcers, boils and running sores. It stimulates liver, kidneys and bowels, expels poisons, helps digestion, builds up the strength. Only 50 cents. Sold by L. Taggart druggist. Guaranteed. Clark's trouble was plurality of dollars. Having a Great Hun on Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Manager Martin, of the Pierson drug store, informs us that he is having a great run on Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. He sells live bottles of that medicine to one of any other kind, and it gives great satisfaction. In these days of la grippe there is nothing like Chamberlain's Cough Remedy to stop the cough, heal up the sore throat and lungs and give relief within a very short time. The sales are growing, and ali who try it arc pleased with its prompt action. —South Chicago Daily Calumet. For sale by L. Taggart, Druggist. jan Notice.
