STATE SENATOR.
Boies Penrose wan last night named by the
RepuMiean caucus as tbo party's candidate
for United States Senator to sneoreA J.
Donald Cameron. The party has said "thou
hast done well, io up higher," and Mr.
Penrose wiil do credit t the great Keystone
state In the highest councils of the nation.
There has been no doubt of the result by
those who have followed thr contest, which,
unfortunately, has in some sections been
waged with some bitterness but the people's
representatives have acqtiletred in the will of
tlie majority and the nomination was made
unanimous. While Mr. Wanaroaker was
brought forth to make the fight, it was the
old light of the Martln-Megee combine for
control of the state, which was routed in 1806
when they cunningly drew the (loveruorof
the state into the contest, and every liepuhli
can should feel gratified at the result. Witli
the election of Crow lo the Shrievalty, and
Penrose to the Senatorship the lines are
being tightened about the Philadelphia
combine which will inevitably end iu its
total r nt.
Have you become accustomed to writing it

The now year Is well under way already,
and soon we will cease to think of it as a

Tuk Southern harbors should be provided

The Bloomsburg Daily takes six lines to

he got a keg of beer ?
Mayor Fbnjiovjbr, of Portland, Ore., in
declining to take more than one-half of his

extent.
Two bclipsks of the sun will be visible in
the United States this year. The only uvont

last year was the obscuration of William

The Democratic Senators who hate Clove
land have attacked him iu many different
ways, but they always retire with an expres

IT is stated by the New York Journal that
if tbo wealth of Greater New York wore
divided among its 3,600,000 inhabitauts each
one would have $8,800. It is no wonder
every long haired loafer in that town is a
socialist.
It is said that the European powers will
give thtir assent to the Anglo-American
arbitration protocol. Of course that treaty
really concerns only the two signatory
powers, but it is pleasing to know that other
nations recognize the principlo of interna
tional arbitration as both humane and
economical.
A NEW bauk organized in Webster, S.
Dak., proved to be insolvent before it was
ready to open fur business. Other banks In the
West are falling, but iu all cases they prove
been to have ou the verge of bankruptcy
for some time. When all the dust clears
away it will be evident that the convulsion is
simply due to the fact that business Is settl
ing down on to a solid basis.
While the temperauce people are almost
heaving the nation from its foundations in
their efforts to destroy tho use of alcoholic
drinks, the chemists and others aro con
tinually discovering or finding out new
intoxicants or methods of produoiugexhilara
ii'is. Alcohol, says the Lancaster New Era,
i simply one of the many means adopted in
ese days to induce intoxication or similar
suits in the human system. Sulphuric
'her, morphine, ohioral, cocaine and other
s ibetauces have been adopted as substitutes.
ixiine chemist has discovered a remedy for
asal catarrh, being a snuff compounded of
icaine, magnesia, menthol and ono or two
..her things. But it was soon discovered
tnat this remedy had other propeities, that it
had other qualities, producing exhilaration
of the most seductive kiud. This snuff, to
gether with other recent preparations, seems
.to indicate that there will be plenty of work
to do even after alcohol has been driven from
the field.
Somi idea of the effects of the insurrec
tion in Cuba is conveyed by the Custom Hdue
returns at Philadelphia. In 18M over twenty
million dollars worth of Cuban sugar came to
that port; in 1886 this was reduced to ten
millions ; last year the imports of sugar
from Cuba were but slightly over two million
dollars In value. Of course, the loss had to
be supplied elsewhere. The total value of
the sugar imports last year was nearly seven
tees million dollars, over a million more
than the previous year, but only one-eight of
this came from Cuba, whence we formerly
got nearly all and only two years ago three
fourths. Demand always calls forth a supply
and commerce is now so well organized that a
decline in production in one country soon
stimulates Increased production elsewhere.
Thus the beet farms of Central and Eastern
Europe have taken the markets relinquished
by the Cuban eane plantations, and it will
not be a simple matter te regain them at
once, even with tranquility restored.
Tut item curreit in the newspapers
several weeks ago stating that Judge Savldge,
now sitting at PotUiille, at a recent meeting
ot the State Bar Association, was mad tb
chairman of a special committee whose pur
pose it is te establish a uniform code of
practice, suggested only a very paltry Idea of
tii full sigaiAcaace of this action. lit an
swer to a query as to the changes contem
plated, those that would particularly affect
our coal region. Judge Savidge recently said
that the granting of citizen's privilege to
foreigner should conform to one plan In
every county, whereas such is not the can.
Taking It for granted that the foreigner who
desite naturalisation should undergo soeaa
examination as to qualifications, it is but
reasonable that the test. If any, should he
similar in every court of the Commonwealth.
In l.iir.sruc county there has i-ever been
a pictenie to examine applicant for sneh
stutr 'crs; everyone that applied was
nutm-aliaed, except for special reasons.
Northumberland county's practice In late
yea 1 1 his conformed to the Idea uf the judge,
tliat no one is eligible except ho have a
k nowlodge of the fundamental facts of human
intelligence and can realise in general terms
what his relatione as a unit of our cltf sen
ship would mean. The knowledge pos
artscsned should not necessarily be f the
schools of our country alone. If be should
be a native of t.,sia, he ought to have heard
of Peter the Otml; if Qermany be his native
home, the nances of Wllbelm and Bismarck
should be familisr to him; or to an Italian,
the name of Uurll-aldl. A uniform code for
the granting of divorces will also be recom
mended, as also certain fixed rules and
limits of time far Ailing auditors' accounts
and other legal pilf ers.

to Weakened
There is always more or lees suspicion
attached to anything that is offered free but
sometimes a man so overflows with generosity
that he cannot rest until his discovery Is
known to the world, In order that his fellow
men may profit by what he has discovered,
it is upon this principal that a resident o(
Kalamasoo, Mich., desires to send free to
mankind a prescription which will cure them
of any form of nervous debility ; relieves
them of all the doubt and uncertainty which
such men are peculiarly liable to and restores
the organs to natural else and vigor. As it
costs nothing to try the experiment it would
seem that any man, suffering with the
nervous troubles that usually attaok men
who never stopped to realize what might le
the final result, ought te be deeply interested
in a remedy which will restore them to
health, strength and vigor, without which
they continue to live an existence of untold
misery. As the remedy In question was the
result of many years research as to what
combination would be peculiarly effective In
restoring to men the atrengtli they need, it
would seem that all men suffering with any
form of nervous weakness ought to write for
such a remedy nt once. A request to H. C.
Olds, Box 1712, Kalamazoo, Mich., stating
that you are not sending for the prescription
out of Idle curiosity, but that you wish to
make use of the medicine by giving its trial,
will be answered promptly and without
evidence as to where Information camo from.
The prescription is sent free atid although
somo may wonder how Mr. Olds ijn afford to
give away Ids discovery, thero is no doubt
about tho offer being genuine. Cut this out
and send to Mr. Olds so that he may know
how you came to write him. lt-28-78t

Ono thing is certain: It will not do to
fool with a bad cold. No ono cau tell what
tho end will be. Pneumonia, catarrh, chronic

too, that bad oolds arc so often neglected
when one remembers bow easily and at what
llttlo expense tbey may be cured. Cham
