L THE FOREST REPUBLICAN. 4. t. WCNK, Editor PaoasicTos. WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1891. Another great mine horror took place oear Halifax, Nova Scotia, oo Saturday last, io which one hundred and seventeen men are reported to have been killed by the explosion. Tiik President on Saturday appoint ed ex Governor Charlci Foster, of Ohio, to the Secretaryship of the Treasury made vacant by the recent death of Secretary Wiodom. The new appointment gives great eatisfac- Drill over the country. There is a good deal of solid scute io the following brief paragraph from the Galveston Xeirs: "The present generation want to learn that a living cannot be made for all hands by legis lation, by resolutions, by speculation or inflation. Honest work is the only way to'earn an honest living. We are hunting entirely too much rest." Republican newspapers are appeal ing to their representatives io Con gress to remain at their posts for the reason that there is legislation yet be fore the House that ought to be passed before the close of the session. The Re publicans can well afford to do this as it will make little difference whether or not they attend the next session at all. The Democratic majority elected to the next House is so large that the country will have to depend upon the Senate and the President to protect it from the destructive policy of the -erratic Democracy, and then the Re publicans can take a seat. Again, a bill to regulate the sale of cigarettes to the small boys bobs up serenely. This time it is in the Penn sylvania Senate and is intended to compel dealers io the tubes of nicotine to take out a license and to make a fine of $50 the penalty for selling to persons under sixteen years of age. As the bill was reported with favora ble recommendations it will probably be passed, and then sink softly into the same innocuous desuetude which pervades the Blue Law statute which makes it a crime for a man to kiss his vrifa nn finnjfav T f ik. 1. . wants to smoke he will get there io spite of the Pennsylvania Legislature or any other august body, and will calmly puff bis lung destroyer in the face of the most awful decrees which It IS la-thfitr nnwpr In enanl H.. t The Harrisburg Telegraph speaking of the proposition to erect new build ings at the State capital, makes these sensible remarks: "Do not patch the eld Capitol buildings. If the condi tion of the revenue is such that a new building cannot be provided for at this session, for goodness sake do not make this an excuse for an abortion that will prove a lasting shame to the State. Pennsylvania is the second State in population in the Union the richest in material wealth. There is no excuse for niggardly economy bo economy that is sure to prove a mortification The people of the State expect a new building; why not give it to them? This sentiment is almost universal. And it is begging the question to say that many millions of dollars may possibly be wasted. It ought to be possible to have a superintendent who a-ould not prove himself a thief." Democratic obstruction io the House yesterday to a bill which propos i to relieve the congested condition of Supreme Court and advance the meager salaries of the Federal Judges is a fitting close to the Democratic policy io the present Congress, which proposed to block all busiuess unless the minority had its way. Tbe business of tbe Supreme Court is now three years io arrears and each Winter it drifts further to te rear. A party which was willing to see no business done by tbe National Legislature is naturally opposed to facilitating tbe "judicial business of the Government or aiding the courts to dispense speedy as well as impartial justice. The solitary objection which tbe Democratic mi nority has to the bill which it tried to obstruct is the Blight addition to the , judicial appointments of a Republican - Idmioistratiou, and this objection is he basis of an attempt to continue the -trtleiay iu ibe Supreme Court to judicial business of the entile iib House committee on Counties I Townships, at Harrisburg, having consideration the uew road bill, ns io session all of yesterday after oon and far into the night. The bill, ith numerous important amendments, as reported back to the House afiirm ively. Amoog the principal amend nil were tbe following: In section provision for the appointment of j master to oversee the work was ckeo out, that duty devolving upon supervisors. The provision iu - 3, prohibitiog the employment uudcr 1H or over 55 year was stricken out and the supervisors empowered to Gx the value of labor according to its efficiency. Section 3 was also amended so as to permit the employment of unaturalized persons when Buch persons were tax payers or in the monthly employ of resident (ax payers. The words "county engineer" were changed throughout the bill to "county surveyor." Section 8 was amended to provide compensation supervisors at the rate of $150 per day. The provision in section 13 for the paymeut of mileage to county surveyors was stiickco i tit, as was also the provision in section 19, requiring the Secretary cf Internal Affairs tn cause a connected plau of the high ways of the several counties of the State to be annually made to make annually summary reports of the matter furnish ed by the reports of the county cngin eers. OriXIOXS OF THE 1'EOri.F. Ed. Iikpum.icas : lucre are several matter coming up beforo our present Legislature of vast Im portance to every citizen of tills great Commonwealth. We believe our Repre sentative, IIoji. 8. S. Towler, will strictly guard our interests In all these matters, especially, when he Is Informed as to our will and wishes. Your correspondent would like to hear the opinion of at loast some of the leading minds in our county relative to the proposod new Road Law. Our views on this matter came out in tho Republican some two years ago, and are the same to-day. It still occurs to us. perhaps through our shortsightedness, that this new act would not improve our present road system. If our representa tives at Harrisburg and Washington would appropriate, for the building and repairing of our public ruads, the money appro priated on the useless streams throughout the State and Nation, it certainly would prove a blessing to each and every one. and our public highways would soon be come as a real monument of praise to their good Judgment. . Again, our present system of Text Books Is to be remodeled. Our schools, or at least the patrons, are being imposed upon by the publishers of our school books. It is almost impossible for many parents to provide, books for their children owing to the exorbitant prices charged for them j these publishers are fast becoming millionaires through their modified rob bery, and should be knocked out by a general enactment. What is to hinder the State from taking the matter iu hand ; au thorlzo the publishing of school books under the direction of the State Superin tendent, and furnish the same at actual cost, and thus have a unifoini series throughout the State? Undor the presont system of school books it is simply impos sible to establish a uniform text series in our county ; hence, right in this fact hinges the greatest drawback to our presont sys tem of education. Directors mav, and in fact have, done their bost to procure a uni form series in a tow nshlp, and as often as they have tried they have failed. If thore was a law to prohibit people from moving rrom ono township to another they might succeed. So it would be in reaching out over the county ; the same obstacles pre sent themselves j therefore we can never hope to reach the dosire of our ambition until the State takes the matter in hand. What say you all f J. , Truth tf Microbe Philosophy Made Plalu By the Uso of the Anti-Microbe Treatmeut. All Temperance Reforms are doing much good, yet right along with the law which enforcement makes it easier for our chil dren to be educated agaiust the use of stimulants, is tlic living example, of father, mother or brother, as the case may bo who makes the law out a fraud, by their use of i-timulants before the young child. "Papa knows best," of course. Yes! Re forms are good ! But they are not at the root of the remedy, as so expressed in any of their explanations, made in any article on how to promote temperance, that I have read. -Intemperance, ut lirst, is self-induced almost without exception, i hough it becomes chronic and is after all a physi cal disease. We all know that taste is next lowest in order, of the five senses. The highest being, seeing, hearing, smell ing, tasting, ana last, lowest and weakest, feeling, and is itself outraged by the abuse of the four higher senses, and they in re turn auuer uccuunu vi me reduced vital force brought to bear upon the lower, which is the base or pedestal of the higher senses. In this physical law, compounded in this "dust body" which is the "The Temple of the Living God." Does it not Btand to reason that the physical body should have no demon in shape of Fungoid niicroDB, iijiuh mm aibiiguring the healthy growth, causing the next higher portion of thejaw, f. e., taste, to food it upon a food which merely keeps up this demon, Fungoid Microbe? Yes! This is true; then clear out the Fungoid which keeps up the clamor, rending out poison through the blood. It can be done by lo cally applying the Anti-Microbe Treat ment, iilamo uot the man or woman who is sulforing from this cause. True, the Fungoid Microbe cuu bo starvod (out, but it is a much more tedious process, requir ing more strength of will than is usually left with a patient long the prey ot the curse. Belter kill it than let the disease remain, or even die a natural death. Ed ucate our children against it; but if they in any wav are induced to the fall, help them out by the truo philosophical route ; and above all help tho poor sufferers al ready fallen. I have enlisted upon this work mainly for the good it will do. Thero is no ono more in favor of temperauce roform than myself, and I hope I have tho good will of oil my temperance reform sisters in tills especial work. Its truth is being demonstrated duily ; Mrs. Maooy Dale, of Forth Worth, Texas, writes, ( I give it iu her words) "I cured a drunkard iu less than two months, two treatments a week. who was next thing to the gutter, iie came to mo sober, but just alter a big sproe, which were of weekly occurrence ; his coat had been pawned lor whiskey ; he would beat his wile iu his drunken fur', aim was a terror generally. isow no is a sound, well man. unci is at work, his wile liappy, and the appetite lor drink gone." It is tho hungry child that can be fed with prelit. Any and all sullerers. whether I'moiu habit or other trouble. Come Learn how to got well and keep will.
