The contlnua lion of the xneech of Senator Mor- Kan (Dem.. Alu.) in the senate toduy In support of the concurrent resoiuium for the recnirnltlnn of Cuban belllKer- t-ncy did not arouHe a particle of the excitement and enthusiasm which the first part of the speech, last Thursday, together with the other speeches of that day aroused. It was too much of a historical review and was inter spersed with the rending of too many letters and reports (for the most part tedious and pretentious) to uttriwt at tention or to arouse enthusiasm. The only forcible parts of Jt were these: "Mr. Morgan expressed his astonish' Jiwmt that, lu view of the Spanish atro cities In the island," this grand, free republic could alt Indifferently by knowing the facts, and not unsheathe th sword, and strike to death the brutal monarch who Inflicted them."

He has been a business man and permanent resident of Elmira for over twenty years. A man whose statement cannot be dis puted. Well, Mr. Dodder's case In a nutshell is that he has been a sufferer from kidney disorders, but doesn't suf fer ;ny more. We will let 'him tell what has brought about the change. Here is how he spoke of his case to our representative: "I have never been well since the cloning: of the war, where. In the service of my country, I con tracted kidney and bladder disorders. The complaint hus gradually been growing on me. 1 had sharp pains In the small of my, back, just back of the hips, and when they left it was only to be followed by a dull, heavy pain which remained continually. I could lie In but one or two positions in bed or the pain would be almost un bearable. 1 was always very Fore over the kidneys, and the urine emitted a strong odor. At times I felt exist ence a task. I tried this, that and the other thing, to no avail, and was on the verge of giving up entirely when I saw Dean's Kidney Pills advertised. I thought as a last resort I would Rive them a trial; they were highly recom mended, and I would use just this) one more remedy. I began takinir them, and I am very glad indeed to give my statement, that suffering humanity may receive the same benefit I have. A few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills satisfied me they were helping me. Now the pain Is all gone, and I am entirely -well this, after years of sickness. My sleep at night Is srood and refreshing. I do not feel any more that tired feel ing I used to on rising, all thanks due to Doan's Kidney Pills.'.' ... - Doan's Kidney Pills are for sale by all dealers.
