His Life In Peril.
“I just seemed to have gone all to
pieces,” writes Alfred Bee, of Welfare,
Tex., “billiousness and a lame back had
made life a burden. I couldn’t eat or
sleep and felt almost too worn out to
work when I began to use Electric Bit-
ters, but they worked wonders. Now I
sleep like a top, can eat anything, have
gained in strength and enjoy hard
work.” They give vigorous health and

Protection and Labor.
For more than forty years the Re-
publican party has made the protection
of American labor a cardinal feature of
its policy. Its greatest leaders have
contended for this and the results have
splendidly vindicated their wisdom.
The United States has been made the
paradise of the workingman, labor has
been elevated and to-day the wage
earners of this country are envied by
those of other lands. The Republican
party stands now where it has always
stood in this respect. It proclaims
through its distinguished leader con-
tinued devotion to the interests and
the welfare of the working classes an
points to what it has accomplished in
their behalf as giving it a just claim to
the continued confidence and support
of labor.
There must be no lowering of the
standard of living for the American
workingman, says President Roosevelt.
Moreover, he must be secured the full-
est opportunity of employment. Ev-
erybody should concur in this, yet the
Democratic proposition to overthrow
Protection would take employment
from labor and necessarily lower the
standard of living. Workingmen at
least should give thoughful considera-
tion to the words of President Roose-
velt.—Omaha Bee.
Forty Years’ Torture.
To be relieved from a torturing dis-
ease after 40 years’ torture might well
cause the gratitude of anyone. That is
what DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve did
for C. Haney, Geneva, O. He says:
“DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve cured me
of piles after I had suffered 40 years.”
Cures cuts, burns, wounds, skin dis-
eases. Beware of counterfeits. E. H.
Miller.
The Democratie-Union Party Have
a Hard Time Getting a Vietim.
On account of General William *H.
Koontz flatly refusing to become a can-
didate for State Senator, the Demo-
cratic conferees reassembled in Bedford
again this week and endeavored to
name a candidate for the empty honor.
It was rumored that ex-Congressman
Thropp could have it for the asking,bui
for some unaccountable reason he
didn’t accept. J.C. Lowry, of Somer-
set, was given the nomination, but word
comes to-day that he has about decid-
ed that he don’t want it and may also
withdraw as a candidate.
In the meantime the sentiment for
Hon. W. H. Miller, the Republican can-
didate for State Senator, keeps grow-
ing in the district, and his election is
assured by a handsome majority.—Ev-
erett Republican.
Spent More Than $1,000.
W. W. Baker, of Plainveiw, Neb,
writes: “My wife suffered trom lung
trouble for fifteen years. She tried a
number of doctors and spent over $1,-
000 without relief. She became very
low and lost all hope. A friend recom-
mended Foley’s Honey and Tar and
thanks to this great remedy. it saved
her life. She enjoys better health than
she has known in ten years.” Refuse
substitutes. E. H. Miller.
Looking for the End of the World.
Considerable excitement prevails
near the dividing line between Susque-
hanna and Bedford counties, where a
certain religious sect predict that the
world will come to an end before the
close of the coming month. A number
of the farmers have left their homes,
turned their stock out on the commons
and are living in camp. Many will not
SOW their fall grain and say they will
not put a single grain of seed in the
ground, as the Lord is certainly com-
ing this year. A few of the most sang-
uine have made ascension robes.—
Windber Era,
The above is an old yarn revamped.
The Hoosier editor of the Era ought to
post himself on the geography of Penn-
sylvania, as well as on many other
things he is ignorant of. The two coun-
ties named are far apart and do not
border on each other.
“Lucifer,” Please Explain.
General Koontz decided to withdraw
from the contest for State Senator Sat-
urday last. What his real reasons are
for making this step we do not know,
but certainly not the silly ones his re-
puted friends assign. As soon as his
withdrawal was definitely made steps
were taken to fill the vacancy thus
made on the ticket. His action does
not in the least injure or affect the suc-
cess of the Citizens’ ticket. We would
very greatly liked to have seen the
General in the State Senate.—Meyers-
dale Commercial. *
You don’t know why he withdrew,
eh? Well, the General says it was be-
cause he was induced to run through
misrepresentation of your fool friends,
and his word is as good as gold. And
you say. “Lucifer,” that you would like
to see the General in the State Senate.
Well, if that’s the case, why did you
bolt him the last time he ran for the
Legislature? The General says he is
just as solidly anti-Quay as ever, and
two years ago you bolted his nomina-
tion because he was an anti-Quay man.
By the way, old man, what are you,
anyway? Are you for Quay or against
him? Your readers have a right to
know, and you owe it to them to ex-
plain. The fact is, old man, you are
simply for the loaves and fishes, such
as $567 election proclamations, ete.
You are for any old mongrel politics
that will land you at the public crib,
and furthermore, you are an old blow-
He Will Run Like a Snail.
J. Cal. Lowry, of Somerset, was nomi-
nated for the office of State Senator by
the conferees of Somerset, Bedford and
Fulton counties at Bedford on Tuesday
last, in place of General Koontz who
withdrew. Mr. Lowry is a well-known
lawyer of the Somerset bar and will
serve the people acceptably in that of-
fice. His escutcheon will never be
stained by accepting a bribe for his
vote and influence. He was born and
reared in Salisbury and will run ahead
of his ticket in the south of the county
shere he is best known. —Meyersdale
Commercial.
No such stuff, “Lucifer,” he was not
nominated by the conferees of Somer-
set, Bedford and Fulton, for the Ful-
ton delegates became disgusted and
never put in their appearance. They
want none of the Calvin in theirs, even
if they are Democrats. Fulton is go-
ing to line up in the Repulican column
this year. Yes, Calvin is a well known
lawyer, but he is a little to well known.
He is so well known that he has been
completely wallopped every time he
bobbed up for office, and that’s three
times and out. The last time he got it
the neck to the tune of almost three to
one, and the South of the county turn-
ed him clean inside out, just as it will
do again. We are not here to discuss
his escutcheou, but we know that the
“scatehing” he got from Henry F. Bar-
ron was a “beaut.” Yes, Calvin will
run like a snail in the South of the
county, just as he always did.
Do Good—It Pays.
A Chicago man has observed that,
“Good deeds are better than real estate
deeds—some ofthe latter are worthless.
Act kindly and gently, show sympathy
and lend a helping hand. You cannot
possibly lose by it.” Most men appre-
ciate a kind word and encouragement
more than substantial help. There are
persons in this community who: might
truthfully say: “My good friend, cheer
up. A few doses of Chamberlain’s
Cough Remedy will rid you of your
cold, and there is no danger whatever
from pneumonia when you use that
medicine. It always cures. I know it
for it has helped me out many a time.”

Texas Justice.
A Texas Judge was robber of a horse
not Jong ago, says the Chicago Journal,
and the thief, being apprehended, was
brought before him for trial. The judge
eyed the prisoner with deep satisfaction
for a minute or so and then delivered
himself thus:
“Owing to a personal prejudice, the
court will not hear the case. It will be
tried by the bailiff, who will find a ver-
diet in accordance with the facts.
In the meantime, “added his honor,
impressively, the court will go outside
and prepare a rope and pick out a good
tree.”
ee
Tue kickers are howling, Your Un-
cle Aleck’s” scowling, while little
“Aleck’s” growling, and “Timmie” Scull
is prowling round for whom he may
devour. But as election day approaches,
in spite of their encroaches, they're
political slow coaches and fusionist
cockroaches, and they’re growing weak-
er every hour.
By the way, how would it do for the
“Mongrels” to hold another “Aleck”
meeting in Salisbury? Several years
ago, it willbe remembered, two “Alecks”
were in Salisbury on a speech-making
tour. That time “Your Uncle Aleck”
Coffroth tried to get Republicans to
vote the Democratic ticket by eulogiz-
ing Abraham Lincoln, but the thing
wouldn’t work, for in the audience
there were some old citizens who heard
“Your Uncle Aleck” make campaign
speeches during the rebellion, and dur-
ing those stormy days “Your Uncle
Aleck” had his jacket off, going up and
down the country comparing the im-
mortal Lincoln to a dog, ete. But now
that “Father Abraham” is dead and
needs no eulogy or support, “Your Un-
cle Aleck” can squeeze out a tear or
two for him any time to touch the
hearts of Republicans. But people
take his pretended sympathy for what
it is worth, and that doesn’t amount to
a tinker's mill dam, whatever that is.
The little green “Aleck” who presides
over the Somerset Democrat, is mak-
ing himself even more ridiculous than
the other “Aleck.” He is trying to win
Republican votes by defending the
shattered reputation of such great (?)
Republican statesmen as Harvey M.
Berkley. Well, Harvey is much in
need of defense, but when praise comes
from such a source as Alex. Grof, it
works the other way, as it should, and
it disgusts even the Democrats. True
Democrats who believe in the princi-
ples of their party, can’t see why they
should vote for such renegade Repub-
lican rubbish as Harvey M. Berkley,
Geo. R. Scull and the two ‘‘Alecks”
have thrust upon them.

Another Heavy Oats Yield.
Jonas C. Beachy, Esq., of Bittinger,
Md., says the Okland Republican, re-
ports an exceptional yield of oats on a
Labor Conditions in the United
States as Compared with Condi-
tions of Labor in Europe.
Labor conditions in the United States
is the subject of a chapter in the re-
cently published report of the Com-
mission from the British Iron Trade
Association which visited the United
States a few months since and reported
upon industrial conditions,and especial-
ly those relating to iron and steel. Dis-
cussing this important guestion of the
condition of labor in the United States
viewed from the standpoint of the Eng-
lish citizen and manufacturer, the re-
port says:
“The conditions of labor in the Uni-
ted States is another matter that has
received a good deal of attention, as
being fundamental in the progress of
American industries, if not also in the
relative progress of some of our own.
The influence of trade unionism is not
nearly so strong nor so aggressive in
the United States as in Great Britain.
The reason is largely capable of mathe-
matical demonstration. A recent re-
port by the New York Department of
Labor shows that while in Great Brit-
ain at a recent date there were 1,905,000
trade unionists, there were only 1,600,
000 in the United States and Canada,
for about twice the population, while
Germany is credited with 995,000, or
about one-half the British figure. The
trade union is not generally recognized
as a militant force in the United States,
except now and again. Few employers
are ready to ‘acknowledge that it has
any influence worth naming.
“The almost absolute freedom of la-
bor has been the chief instrument
whereby it has won such conquests in
the field of industrial economy during
the last quarter of a century. In all
conutries industrial processes have
been greatly cheapened during that pe-
riod, but in America the cheapening
appears to have been carried farther
than anywhere else. According to fig-
ures recently made public by Mr. Wil-
liam Garrett. a rail roller in an up to
date rail mill is paid less than one cent
per ton for rolling, against 15 cents at
a not very remote date. Within that
time, again, a wire rod roller has seen
his earnings per ton reduced from $2.12
to 10 cents per ton, and yet he earns
larger wages at the lower figure, while
five cents are paid today for heating
billets to make wire rods, against 80
cents during the period referred to.
‘If rod rollers, says Mr. Garrett, ‘were
to receive the same wages per ton that
they did twenty years ago, they would
earn $424.00 per day.’
“The average output per worker has
in all cases increased enormously. At
the nine Edgar-Thomson blast furnaces,
I was told that 1,600 men are employed
for an output of 24,500 tons per week,
including all the hands employed in
handling and stocking raw materials,
transport, ete. This gives an average
of 15.3 tons of pig per man per week, or
795.5 tons per man per annum. The
minimum wage paid at the blast fur-
naces is $1.50 per day of 12 hours. I
did not get the average wage paid at
these works, but Mr. A. C. Dinkey, the
manager of the Homestead works, re-
cently testified that the average earn-
ings of the workmen, excluding officials,
is $2.73 per day, while the earnings of
rollers and beaters rise to $15 per day.
Wages, in short, are generally so good.
and the men have their futures so much
in their own hands, that they have ev-
ery encouragement to do the best they
can for their employers and for them-
selves.
“The human factor and the personal
equation appear-to count in the Uni-
ted States for more than they general-
ly do in Europe. Workmen appear to
enjoy a larger measure of independ-
ence, based on the knowledge of the
fact that work is more easy to obtain
thain in older countries; that they are
able, as a rule, to save money, and are,
therefore, less dependent than when
living, as is not unusual in Europe,
from hand to mouth. and that they are
living under a political regime which is
founded on democratic principles.
“Two features of the relations of em-
ployers and employed may be named
as exercising a powerful influence on
the amity of their connection—the
first, the encouragement and reward
of workmen’s inventions, and the sec-
ond, the readiness with which workmen
of exceptional capacity can themselves
become emiployers and capitalists.”

A Dozen Times a Night.
Mr. Owen Dann, of Benton Ferry, W.
Va., writes: “I have had kidney and
bladder trouble for years, and it be-
| came so bad that I was obliged to get
