' The position taken by tlio Democratic party in lfefiO will not be surrendered," says Mr. Bryan, which means that the free silver, income tax and anti-Supreme Court follies and scandals of the Chicago platfurm will be stuck to by tlio Popocratic iarty. This, if true, is great news for the Republicans. It means they aio likelytogetahlggcr majority in 1900 than thoy did in 1600. No party or coalition baring any such crcod as that pro mulgatwl by tlio llryanitos last year can ever carry this country. The Mississippi floods still rage. They are continuing their work of destruction, and with bnt little prospect of immediate abatement, as the spring ruins have set in and are likely to be of sufficient amount to keep the waters at their present height for Botno time to come. The season for planting in most of tlio submerged lands is at hand; but even wero the waters to subsido, it will be a long time before they will have su 111 ciently dried off to be fit for plowing and planting. The outlook fur tlis people win have bad homes in the Hooded districts is in the largest degiee pitiable. As an example of progreasivenoea the little borough of McAdoo leads the procession. In the short space of a year they havo organized a borougb government, built a lockup, organ ized the required board of health and havo a lire company equipped with a hose cairiage ii ml other necessary apparatus. A movement is now on foot among the members of the Are company to raise a required sum with which to purchase a chemical engine. One of the most essential steps to a prosperous future has been taken in the organization ol a board of trade which has in sight the loca tion of a shirt factory- THE Pottsville Chronicle agrees fully with the Hkrald, when it says: "What there is to argue before court in the Shenandoah ami Maliauoy City borough justice muddle, is a mystery to the average layman. The Su preme Court having sustained Judge Persh ing in declaring the election of Messrs. lawlnr, Cardin, Coyle and Jones illegal, it would appear to the average mind that all there was left to do was for the gentlemen named to step down aud out. How they propose to overrule tlio Supreme Court, or what argument they can now advance for holding on is not dear. There is but one thing left for them to do relinquish the justice business." This Union soldiers fared badly uuder tbe Cleveland administration. More than a thousand of them were dismissed from the government service in WsslilugVn city alone ! by that administration and comparati v. ly few soldiers appointed to fill the vacancies thus created. One of the first tliiugs done by the new administration was to set about rein-t.itiug tbeso dismissed soldiers.

Opposite IUadlng railroad station. IS,. J up Offensive Cataffh. Catarrh Is seemingly one of the most complicated of ailments, and one which the doctors are absolutely unable to cure. The reasons for this are easily explained. Catarrh la a blood disease, and only a blood remedy can effect It. Tlio various sprays, douches and washes which' are employed as a local treatment, may, for a time, alleviate the trouble, but no one cvor knew of such treatment producing a cure. They can not reach tile seat of the die ease, as the experience of many sufferers will prove; nothing' can do so except a real blood remedy. In the treatment of Catarrh, 8. S. S. has demonstrated the fact that It reaches deep-seated diseases, which other remedies can not touch. Mr. Chas. A. I'arr, the loading wall paper dealer, of Athens, Ga., writes! " For months I suffered from a severe case of catarrh. The many offensive Mr. Ciias. A. Parr. symptoms were accompanied by severe pains in the head. I took sev eral kinds of medicines recommended for catarrh, and used various local ap plications, but the disease had become BO deep-seated that tlicy had no effect whatever. I was alarmed at my con dition, as I knew this disease invari ably descended to the lungs, ending In consumption. I was induced to take B. S. S. (Swift's Specific), and after two months I was perfectly well, and have never felt any effects of th disease since. S. S. S. is the only blood remedy which it is impossible to imitate. There is a substitute for most of them, for they are all alike contain the same ingredients, and are made in the same manner. But there is no substitute for S. S. S., as it is in every way dif ferent from every other blood remedy offeredto the public. It is nature's own remedy, being made from roots and herbs gathered from the forests, and contains not a particle of mercury, potash or other drug. It is not a drug store remedy, and not a single ingredi ent can be obtained from a chemist's shop. S. S. S. (Swift's Specific) is the only blood remedy which is truarau- Jeed to be Purely Vegetable All othero are founded on mercury and potash. Deep-seated and obstinate blood troubles, such as Cancer, Scrofula, Catarrh, Rheumatism, Eczema, Con tagious Blood Poison, etc.; which oth er remedies do not reach, yield readily to the curative powers of S. S. S. Books on blood and skin diseases will be mailed free to any address: Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga. lteduced ltatcs to New York.
