The Health Officer of Washing ton has discovered a simple means by which the germs, or microbes oi' tuberculous, pneumonia and typhoid fever may bo destroyed. The world will be delighted to get this valuable knowledge, if it is not for sale in bottles. The paper trust has putin a general denial before the House Judiciary Committee, that it is a trust. It says such allegations are as thin as tissue paper and will not hold water any more than a paper bag. The publishers of news papers have another opinion on the subject. The civilized world mourns the loss of Verestchagin. the Russian battle-painter, who was a guest of Admiral Makaroff and perished with him in the destruction of the battleship. This artist was the greatest living painter of battle 3cenes. His work, moreover, was always in the interest of humanity —intended to make war seem as barbarous and gastly as it is. WASHINGTON LETTER. (From our Regular Correspondent.) Washington, April 2. r >, 1904. Editor P*eas:-- The present session of Congress has been a business session. A sum amounting to almost $700,- 000,000 lias been appropriated for carrying on the government, and forwarding those great enterprises to which it is committed. Mr. John Sharp Willians, the minority Democratic House leader from Mississippi, complains that many abstract and purely political ques tions have been ignored or per mitted to rest until next December on the plea of want of time. lie would have the trusts prosecuted, the reciprocity treaties ratilied, the Filipinos granted more rights, a nearer approach to free trade with Canada, and a general reduction of the tariff. Mr. Hamilton, member from Michigan, "threw down the gauntlet" a few days ago, in which he vindicated the present policy of the Republican party, upheld its present tariff policy not only as a necessity for giving the govern ment its needed revenue, but as the chief factor in the prosperity of the times. He said that if there is any wide-spread dissatisfaction with the tariff the people will have an opportunity to give an expres sion of their feelings at the polls next November. The Pension bill carrying $127,000,000 has passed. Senator Scott, of W. Va., said that if lie could have his way he would give a pension of $25 per month to every Union man, rich or poor, who took up arms in the Civil War. There was some speech-making in the House against giving the President con trol of the Panama canal zone, but when the bill came to a vote it passed unanimously. The only appropriation bills still before Con gress are the General Deficency and the Military Academy. There is a bill before Congress which declares that after June 29, 1907, when a clerk in the civil ser vice reaches the age of 70 years his position shall be vacant. There are some two-hundred or more clerks of this age employed in Washington, and there are a number of Senators who are over seventy. Congress is considerate in giving the aged clerks three years' notice. The question of Morinonism and plural wives is again before the public, owing to the frank confes sions and admissions of Agnus Cannon and 1-jx-Congressman l»rig hain 11. Roberts. Three of Mr. Roberts wives have been account ed for and Mr. Cannon lias said the astonishing statement that he married two of his six wives at the same hour. This is quite as bad as progressive divorce, which only permits a man to marry several wives in succession. Senator Reve ridge is strongly in favor of Sena tor Smoot retaining his seat. Ac cording to a Mr. Cobb, of Roise City. Idaho, the Mormons hold the balance of power in that state. Senator Dußois wishes to know if any post masters in Idaho are liv ing in polygamy. If they are any such they should be excluded from j the mails. The Washington Sanitary llous iug Company is the name of a new society which has for its object the acquiring of land and the building of sanitary houses for the poor. The rent is to be low. The intent is to do away with the unsanitary houses which now crowd the alleys of the city, and are a menace to both health and morals. Jacob Itiss, the biographer of the Presi dent, recently called public atten tion to the deplorable condition which prevail in Washington. Kobbedthe Grave. A .startling incident, is narrated by John Oliver of Philadelphia, as follows: "I was in an awful condition. My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continually in back and sides, no appetite, growing weaker day by day. Three physicians had given me up. Then I was advised to use Electric Ritters; to my great joy, the first bottle made a deccided improvement. I continued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they robbed the grave of another victim." No one should i'ail to try theui. Only 50 cents, guarantee, at L. Taagart's drug store. CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, APRIL 28, 1904.

Their main source is the liver— and all the fine spirits ever made in the Blue Grass State could not remedy a bad liver or the hundred-and- one ill effects it produces. You can't have good spirits and a bad liver at the same time. Your liver must be in fine condition if you would feci buoyant, happy and hopeful, bright of eye, light of step, vigorous and successful in your pursuits. You can put your liver in fine condition by using Green's August Flower—the greatest of all medicines for the liver and stomach and a certain cure for dyspepsia or indi gestion. It has been a favorite household remedy for over thirty-five years. Aug ust Flower will make your liver healthy and active and thus insure you a liberal supply of "good spirits."

Brown of that place, who was expected to die, bad his life saved by Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption. He writes: "I endured insufferable agonies from Asthma, but your new Discovery gave me immediate relief and soon thereafter effected a com plete cure." Similar cures of Consump tion, Pneumonia.
