Cowardice of Statesmen.
The latest advices from Wii-nini;-ton
are to the effect that tho Imini
' grntloii restriction bill, which piivt'd
tho Somite several weeks itf,'o by n
good uuijority, will be Hide trucked in
the House. This plan is not nd'vted
beenilbO of any fear that tlm inou-ure
wool 1 meet with n.i adverse nnir
Hy in the lower house. If the bill
reached the stao where a vote could j
botakon,it is even admitted by op
ponents of the 11. ensure that it would
pass with a good working niajorlu.
There arc, however, a number of
Congressmen who expect to be caudi
dates foi re elec'luu. and they do not
care at this time to make a reroul
that would be used against them. If
they voted for the bill certain foiein
elements in theh district would array
themselves against these cowaidl
statesmen; and, on the other hand; il
they voted against a restrictive meas
ure certain Auiei ii'im hi bur elements,
who have strongly petitioned their
roproseutativesto iHRs the bill, would
call them to an account of their
stewardship. This is the reason w hy
the bill has not boon pushed forward
in the House, and which may finally
result in its beinr pigeon-holed for
the present.
Even these cowardly Congressmen
(and Schuylkill's representative is
numbered in that category) will ad
mit that legislation in line with tho
Lodge bill is not only demanded hy a
great majority of their constituents,
but the time has arrived when greater
restriction should be placed upon tho
hordes of immigrants now landing
upon our shores. The country is al
ready overcrowded with unskilled
labor, and their ranks will be greatly
swelled during the next twelve
months should the bill in question bo
not acted upon m deference to the
wishes of these cowaidly statesmen.
There u also danger that a Congics
may be elected this fall adverse to a
restrictive measure.
The steamship companies and other
interested parties are arraed against
the measure, and besides maintaining
a powerful lobby at Washington, have
beou actively at work creating senti
ment in opposition to it. This is
shown in the petitions sent to Con
gressmen by societies composed of
foreigners protesting against such
legislation. The Congressman from
this district has received beveral peti
tion of this nature, and this week
one was forwarded from his home
town. Ho is mildly threatened with
defeat for re-election if ho should not
heed the demand of the petitioners
and oppoie tho restriction of immi
gration. On the other hand, Sir. liruium is
aware of tho greater number of peti
tions that have been forwarded to
Washington requesting tho repre
sentatives from this stato to yote in
favor of the bill. Thus he is between
the dovil and the deep sea, and it re
maius to be seen where he stands
when the llual summons comes.
Likely as not, ho will resort to his old
tactics of stranding tho question. We
shall Bee.
Speak-Easies nourishing.
Tho Girard Estate has succeeded
in closing up tho licensed taverns of
West Mahanoy township, but we
doubt very much if tho cause of
temperance, of which the president
of the Board of City Trusts is an en
thusiastic advocate has been bene
fitted thereby. It is already re
ported that "speak-easies" have
sprung up like mushrooms, and are
likely to do far more harm to the
temperance causo than tho half-dozen
houses (hat have been closed.
. It looks like shooting beyond the
mark, unless the ofllciuls of the Es
tate follow up the matter by prose
cuting tho owners of tho speak
easies, which it seems they are
morally bound to do. In prosecuting
such cases, however, grout difficulty
would be experienced, as the senti
ment of the community is favorable
to the pate of liquor ; and as permis
sion to sell legally has beon refused
by the officials of tho Estate, It will
ho sold Illegally, and will bo con
nived at by the Inhabitants of the
township, and the action of the hoard
will only result in increased hy
pocrlsy in the people at large.
We are not apologizing for tho
liquor trafll, nor discussing tho tout'
peranco question, which has pro
vokod moro or less discussion in all
ages since Noah's exhibition of over
indulgence early in the world's his
tory, but are constrained to make u
few remarks upon the case as it Is a
good illustration of what an excess of
zeal in a good causo can accomplish
when not properly restrained and
directed.
In the case in point, no ouo will
question the motive, hut the outcome
s already such that it Is open to

Madrid, Ftdi. 17. The following semi
official note has been Issued: "The
news of the disaster to tho Maine has
caused a painful Impression In Madrid.
It was at first feared that there had
been some act of Imprudence to which
the catastrophe was attributable. Af
terwards, as the details arrived, the
fears dispelled and took the form of
feelhiRS of sympathy and sorrow for
the misfortune which has occurred."
The government has expressed to
Minister Woodford the regret It feels
at the catastrophe, more especially as
It occurred In waters within Spanish
Jurisdiction.
Admiral Chacon, the commander-in-chief
of the Spanish navy, in the course
of an Interview yesterday, Bald tho
United States warship had on board a
"new explosive based on gun cotton,
manufactured by a special process."
Such explosives, he added, were very
dangerous, the slightest friction caus
ing an explosion. He believed the dis
aster was due to such a cause.
Kl Correo. the government organ, an
nounces that United States Minister
Woodford last night received Spain's
leply concerning the De Lome letter,
nnd It adds that the Incident Is re
garded as terminated.
The Kpoca says of tho disaster to the
Maine: "Whatever the relations be
tween Spain and tho United States,
Christian feeling and humanity com
pel us to regret the catastrophe. The
Epectacle of so many lives suddenly
launched Into eternity Inspire compas
sion." The Heraldo remarks: "Although
the Amet leans try to represent us as
a people devoid of vlrtue-i. we must
face this horrible misfortune sincerely
and express feelings of compassion. In
the face of provocative Americans? wo
shall always remain a proud people, but
In the face of men In misfortune, of
whatever nationality, our hearts are
always full of pity."

WHAT IT INDICATES
Nothing so interferes with one's plans or
ambition like sickness or poor health. Have
you ever thought that jour kidneys may be the
cause of ) our sickness? You can easily find
out by setting aside your urine for twenty-four
hours ; a sediment or settling indicates an un
healthy condition of the kidneys. When urine
stains linen it is evidence of kidney trouble, j
loo frequent desire to urinate or pain m the
back, i also convincing proof that the kidneys
and bladder are out of order.
It is a source of comfort to know that Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp Root is the great remedy for
all kidney and bladder complaints. It relieves
pain, stitch or dull aching in the hack, difficult
or painful urination, frequent desire to urinate,
scalding or pain in passing it, and quickly
ivercomcs that unpleasant necessity of being
ompcllcd to get up many times during the
night. The mild and extraordinary eflcct of
Swamp-Root is soon realized. Its action is
;cntlc, yet immediate, the relief speedy and
the cures permanent. At dniggists fifty cents
and one dollar. You may have a sample bottle
and pamphlet, both sent free by mail. Men

All Altron That tlio Horror Wns the
Itosult of Accident.
London, Fob. 17. Tho Dally News,
commenting upon the disaster to the
United States warship Maine, says:
"The disaster reaches the very ex
tremity of horror. The public feeling
of the world, shocked by this dire
calamity, will do well to imitate the
restraint imposed on that of the Uni
ted States hy both the Washington gov
ernment and the captain of the ill-fated
ship. For suspicions of foul play there
seems to be absolutely no warrant,
though naturally they haunt tho minds
of many Amerlcnns. They should be
entertained only on absolute compul
sion. A spark of misdirected national
feeling might cause terrible mischief.
The attitude of Spain at this agonizing
moment will either efface the memory
of the De Lome Incident forever or re
vive It with added circumstance of bit
terness nnd nsperslon that cannot be
contemplated without a shudder. The
calamity sends a pang to every Brit
ish heart."
The Morning Post, In an editorial of
profound sympathy, expresses the hopo
that certain American senators who
have "allowed themselves to talk rather
wildly," will suspend Judgment. The
paper does not believe In the torpedo
theory, and thinks the disaster the re
sult ot an accident, but it fears the
real cause will never be known.
The Dally Chronicle says: "British
sorrow and sympathy are little less
vivid than if the casualty had hap
pened to one of our own ships." It
thinks the theory that the boilers burst
absutd, and after expressing the opin
ion that there is "no apparent Justi
fication of foul play," It suggests that
some new and dangerous explosive,
which was on board with a view of
experiment, should an occasion arise,
oxploded spontaneously after suffering
the process of mechanical decomposi
tion, and so fired the magazine."

Chicago, Feb. 17. Joe Lelter has se
curely cornered tho May wheat market,
plays fast and loose with the fears of
a tremendous short Interest, nnd Is
showing himself to be by all odds the
most remarkable factor ever encoun
tered In the local market. Once more
the battle between Armor and Lelter
Is being witnessed. Armour sent his
brokers to the northwest section some
days ago to buy all the cash wheat In
sight. No sooner did Lelter hear of
this flank movement than he began to
plan a coup. Yesterday Instructions
were forwarded to all of Lelter's brok
ers In the northwest tft follow up Ar
mour's agents and bid 2 to 4 cents
higher than Armour on all wheat of
fered to the latter.

IN SENATE AND HOUSE.
Fenntors Discuss Farttllcntlntin nnd
the House tlio Bankruptcy BUI.
Washington, Feb. 17. A discussion j
upon the coast defenses was the In
teresting feature of the senate yester
day. Mnny senators took the grounds
that the approprltlons should be for the
I full amount of the estimates by tho war
department, Instead of somo $4,000,000
, less. Senators Perkins and Hale said
that It was the policy of the approprla-
j Hons committee to make an annual ex
penditure of $10,000,000 a year for for
tifications. Senators Stewart, Hawley,
Chandler and Lodge spoke In favor of
j Increases. Senator Teller also advo-
, cated the bill expenditure, and during
his remarks made significant allusions
to Cuba and Hawaii. In executive ses
sion Senator Morrill opposed Hawaiian
annexation.
The debate on the bankruptcy bill,
which Is ttj continue until Saturday,
when a vote will bo taken, opened In
the house yesterday, but It attracted
little attention, the Interest of the mem
bers being entirely absorbed by the
disaster of the Maine. At times the
hall of the house was almost deserted,
the members being congregated In the
lobbies or cloak rooms discussing the
accident and speculating upon its prob
able consequences. Just before the
house adjourned Mr. joutelle, chair
man of the naval committee, presented
a resolution, which was unanimously
adopted, expressing regret for the- dis
aster, condolence with the families of
those who lost their lives and sym
pathy with the Injured.

A REMEDY FOfl THE
Effects of Tobacco.
fWLlE oxccsslvo uso of tobacco, especially
n by young men is always Injurious and
undoubtedly shortons llfo materially.
Mr. I'd. O. Ebsen, compositor on tho Contra
Costa JVctca, Martinez, Cat., writes; "I havo
used Br. Miles' Bostoratlvo Nervlno nnd re
ceived much benofit from it. I was troubled
with ncrveusnoss, dizzy spoils and sleepless
ness, caused by tho uso of tobacco and stim
ulants. I took Dr. Miles' Nervlno with tnar
velonsly good results, allaying tho dizziness,
quieting tho nerves, aud enabling me to
Uccp and rest, proving In my caso a, Tory
beneficial remedy." Dr. Miles' Eostoratlvo
Norvlno is especially adapted to restoring
tho nervous system to Its normal condition
under such circumstances. It soothes, heals
