A uullktin issued by the New "York
Huraau of Labor Statistics shows
that tho number of persons in the
state who, at the close of 1WI7, be
longed to industrial organizations was
173,728. This, considering tho vastly
greater number of the.stato's inhabi
tant who work for a living, indicates
that the trades-union idea has by no
means as many followers as is goner
ally supposed.

Tho Critical Hour.
The time has come when tho Spanish-American
question must finally be
considered and with the utmost calm
ness, slncority and wisdom. Peace
may be continued; or it nut be war,
terrible, devastating and long-eon-tinued.
Lot no mistake lie made, through
any foolish under-rating of tho perils
of tho hour, or the strength and skill
of the enemy. Let us not act on the
niippositioii that the Spaniards hit
cowards. On tho contrary they are
hot-blooded, belligerent, reckless, with
an abnormal fondnoss for scenes upon
which tho people of other civilized
nations look with horror, and never
st ip to count the cost. They faced
th i conquering legions of tho first
N ipoloon with wonderful courage.
'I' ley stood before the iron-hearted
I ittalions of Wellington.
Hut while this country and Spain
oavo endeavored to come to an ami
cable agreement, without resorting to
bloody warfare, what of Cuba, which
Has a more dheet interest in this
momentous (lUOftio.i and its ultimate
settlement, than pitlier V Tho Cubans
declare they will not accept any
te.ms from Spain short of absolute
and complete i'. dependence, and that
they v. Ill pay no ol cr price for their
freedom than that which tlioy have
already paid. Tlioy will not supple
ment the blood payment they have
made with a gold payment that would
keep them impoverished for a gener
ation. This is tlie ultimatlon of the
Cubn Junta, who represent those
who have fought, suffered nnd bled
for freedom and independence.
In deciding the question of war,
however, let us do so with a full ap
preciation of its horrors, of its cobt
in blood and treasure. AVar will be
no holiday aiTair, oven without any
meddling on the part of any other
Kuropean nation.
Perve muot bo preserved, unless
thre is with honor no other alterna

a war as will tako place on tho high

within the next ninety days, if
hostilities are once commenced.

SPANISH TREACHERY.
ienatnr IVikliiH Make SerloiiH ChnrguH
AkhIiixI .Spiinixh OIIIcI.iIh.
II was TraflKly and' openly charged
in the senate yesterday by Mr. Perkins,
of California, In a set speech, thai
Spain was responsible for the Maine
disaster, as it had been brought about
by Spanish machinations and Spanish
tieneliery. The speech of Mr. Perkins
was only one of four prepared ad
dresses upon the Cuban question de
livered In the senate yesterday. Mr.
Clay, of Georgia, while hoping for a
peaceful settlement of the problem tip
country Is now facing, declared strong
ly In favor of Independence of the Cu
bans, and pledged to the administra
tion the loyal support of the south
which In the event of war would have
lo bear the brunt of the conflict. Mr
Perkins took substantially the sami
ground, and his vigorous treatment of
the Maine disaster aroused the crowd
ed galleries to enthusiastic applause.'
Mr. Mantle, of Montana, while express
ing confidence in the administration
rnairitnined that the time for action
had now arrived, and that ac tion must
be to the end that Cuba should be free.
Mr. Kawllns. of Utah, entirely elimi
nated the president from consUleratlon
In his speech, holding that the ease
against Spain was already made up,
und that with congress rested the re
sponsibility of declaring war. For con
gress to wait longer was only to in
vite ciltlclsm.
While theie was no attempt to force
consideration for a resolution regard
ing the Cuban situation in the house,
there was a brief outbreak, in the
course of which the watlike temper of
the crowded galleries was so manifest
that Speaker Heed threatened to elear
them If It was repeated. The out
break occurred over a bill to authorize
the president to erect temporary forti
fications in case of emergency upon
land, when the written consent of the
owners was obtained, without await
ing tho long process of legal condem
nation. Tills led to a demand by Mr.
Dalley, the Democratic leader, for in
formation as to the fac ts which war
ranted all these war measures. The
particular statement which aroused
the galleries wus lo the effect that
while the Democrats were willing to
wait any reasonable time for the pres
ident to transmit a message that would
meet the approval of the Ainerlc-nn
people, they would not wait a minute
for hhn to continue negotiations with
"the butchers of Spain." Mr. Cannon
accused Mr. Halley of "posturing" and
playing to tho galleiies. The bill was
passed.
A Conorvntlvo Soiuilor Sii.vh War.,
Senator Mitchell, of Wisconsin, who
Is one of the most conservative men In
the senate, and has never advocated
Intervention in any way until since the
receipt of the report of the Maine dis
aster, received a letter yesterday from
u friend in Milwaukee In which an
argument for penco is made. Senator
Mitchell replied: "I have never fa
vored armed Interference in Cuban af
fairs. I did not feel that wo were
bound to redress the wrong of Cuba by
ronortlng ,to war. Hut the Maine epi
s'odo will not down. Over refinement of
argument Is useless. It stands before
the American people a plain case of
treachery. Perfidy and cruelly run In
the Spanish blond. There is little else
In Us history. Any nation that would
permit such nn outrage to go unpun
ished would not deserve lo exist. There
are some things worse than war. There
are some things bettor than money."
A special meeting of the cabinet was
held last night, and nt Its conclusion
Secretary Long authorized tho an
nouncement that the president's Cuban
message was finished nnd would be
presented to congress tomorrow. The
message, which In Itself Is long, will
not he accompanied by the consular re
ports deullnsr with the stute of affairs
In Cuba. These win go to the com
mittee on foreign relations of tho sen
ate for tholr private Information, nnd
will not he made public Just now. The
diplomatic correspondence between the
United States and Spain will not bo
submitted at present.

WHAT IT INDICATES
Nothing so interferes wilh one's plans or
ambition like sickness or poor health. Have
you ever thought that your kidneys may be the
cause of your sickness? You can easily find
out by setting aside your uiinc 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.
Too frequent desiie to urinate or pain ill the
hack, isalso convincing proof that the kidneys
and bladder arc out of order.
It is a source of comfort to know that Dr
Kilmer's Swam) Root is the great remedy for
all kidney and bladder complaints. It relieves
pain, stilch or dull aching in the back, difficult 1
or painful uiination, frequent desire to urinate,
scalding or pain in passing it, and quickly
overcomes that uppleasant necessity of being
compelled lo get up many limes during the
night. 'I he mild and extraordinary effect of
Swamp-Koot is soon realized. Its action h
gentle, yet immediate, the relief speedy and
llie cures permanent. At drue-gists fifty cents
aud one dollar. You may have a sample holtlc
and pamphlet, both sent free by mail upon
receipt of lluee Iwo cent stamps. Men
tion II r.RAI.ij and send your address to Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Ilinghaintnn, N. Y. The
proprietors of this paper guarantee the genuine
ness of this offer.
