OUR COUNTRY : First. Last and Forever.

generously tendered him by Col.
AVatterson in convention upteinbled.
A la it a it nioriil locomotive was
built in a Pennsylvania shop in
twenty-one hours and thirty minute!'.
The whole world wants American
locomotives and the demand will be
met.
Thk Supreme Court of Missouri has
tuade an important ruling, holding
that answers to questions in applica
tions for insurance are warranties
and that when they prove to be false
the policy becomes null and void.
A SKNATOn remarked the other day
that until the treaty was ratified we
were still at war with Spain. It is
plain to be seen, however, from the
leisurely manner of some of the fcSen
utors, that there are no Milliter
bullets flying round the capitol.
Replying to Andrew Carnegie's
argument that the United States can
not digest the Philippines, Justice
Harlan, of the Supreme Court, cites
a case in point. "We have digested
Mr. Carnegie," he says, "and if there
is any class of people hard to digest
it is that class."
TJndkii the existing law the chances
for promotion in the United States
navy are made to depend upon war,
death and retirement on uccount of
old age. There is nothing so very en
couraging in this to the young man
who has just-cie orudeck from the
Annapolis Academy.
"If we are going into the colonial
business, argues Col. Bryan, "we
should double the army of occupation
at once." He thinks the increase
necessary, perhaps, because so many
men are seized by a desire to return
home when they get about half 'way
on their journey to the seat of war.
The Chinese government and
people generally are great believers
in the good old times. All that is old
is good, and all that is new is bad and
dangerous. They have their counter
parts the world over, but fortunately
for the western world the pullbacks
have for a long time lost control, and
the world moves, though even at the
present moment they are able to
block progress to a considerable ex
tent.
THOSE free silver newspapers, who
assume the un-American position of
decrying every indication of improved
business condition throughout the
country, will receive little consolation
in the report of the iron output,
which at present is the largest in the
historj of the country. The blast
furnaces of the United States entered
the new year with a productive
capacity beyond that ever reached in
this country. Yet we have the strik
ing fact that furnace stooks, so far as
reported, showed a further deoline in
December, thus indicating an enor
mous consumption. Two hundred
furnaces are in blast, producing 218,
510 tons of piir iron a week. The same
time last yeur 188 furnaces were in
blast, producing 220.008 tons. ' The
Lehigh Valley has seven in blast
Schuylkill Valley flve.Lebanon Valley
eight, Pittsburg district 28, Shenango
Valley 10, Mahoning Valley 10,
Illinois 14, Alabama 18 and bo on
This is a nice morsel fpr our free
silver friends to digest at their
leisure.

Dover, Del.. Jan. IT. The llepubllcou
members of the leglslulure, who num
ber 81 of the total membership of 52,
did not agree upon a candidate for
United States senator to succeed Hon.
George Gray. The general assembly be
gins voting for a senator today, and In
the line of political procedure a caucus
was arranged for last evening. The
only KepuhUcatm who jnet, however,
were the I'lilon, or Addlcks Uepulill
cans, and 15 of this faction gathered In
the house of representatives. The meet
ing was presided over by State Senator
J. 'Frank Allee, and the members voted
unanimously for J. Hdward Addlcks.
They contend that their gathering wns
the regular caucus of the party, and
that Its outcome makes Addlcks the lie'
publican tuimliiee. In this, however, the
Dupont element does not concur. The
Democratic members held a minority
caucus Inst evening, mid after several
oi mai party nan withdrawn, owing to
their sentiments on the silver miration,
the remainder voted unanimously for
George Gray. '
The hotixes voted separately today, and
the Joint ballot of the assembly will be
gin tomorrow. It Is expected that at
least 11 regulars will vote for Dupont
The Gray vote will bp about 10. Inas
much ns It has been established that
"a majority of the members present"
can elect a senator, Uie deadlock which
will undoubtedly occur may be broken
before the end of the CO day's session of
the legislature.
Our Growing Exports.
Washington, Jan. 17. During the fis
cal year 1898 the United States export
ed ?621,2G0,536 more of merchandise of
all sorts than It Imported, or a gain In
excess of exports over 1897 of $201,140,719.
These enormous figures represent the

The bureau s statement covers the
month of December and the year 1898.
It shows that our exports for 1S98 were

534, of which $207,907,915 came In free

parisons with our trade with the five
years Immediately preceding the past,

In France, a man sentenced to iloatli is
not told In advance on what day lie is to die.
Tho first Information lie gets is from tlio
olUcora who prepare him for tho guillotine.
Between sentence and execution the
ffrUonor's life Is full of terrors, for any font

of death.

Herbert Harley, dealer In shoos nt
Twontletli and Pine streets, Philadelphia,
says :
"1 stiuercd for years with clironlo kidney
troublo and tried many remedies and doctors.
About u year ago I had jui extremely serious
attack. I could not attend to business ami
my family was much alarmed. .My back was
so lamo I could not stand erect. I had high
fever and ufglit sweats, and tho luiu hi my
back made it impossible to securo a good
night's rest.
"The doctur said I had too iniiuli acid in
my blood, which caused neuralgic eouilitions.
It makes n man pretty bhlu to lie always
ailing, and one who has a stora finds sickness
an expensive luxury.
"One day my daughter brought mo a
well-known remedy and urged mo to take it.
A friend had recommended It so highly she
was sure it would do mo good. I didn't have
much cnufideuco In it, for I had tried so many
things tint I had litllo faith left in anything.
Its actiou, however, was u plonsant surprise.
It seemed to take rlifht hold anil strenethen
tho hladuer anil kidneys, and mado mo feel
belter beforo tho end of the week. It Just
braced mo like a tonic, and I feel I owe my
I llo to Warner's Bale euro, which was tho
remedy I used."
1 he doctor was right. Mr. Jiarley a blood
was charged with uric acid, a maliguant
poison . When tho kidneys are sound they
draw It from tho blood. When they aro un
sound tho acid remains, to shatter the nerves.
to weaken tho heart and to dull the brain.
It is needless; find, to many readers, it would
be painful, to tell in detail the terrible
progress ot kidney diseases.

cold which settled all over me. The
pain in my chest and side was excruci
atinp;. The doctor gave me medicine
and blistered my side, but I only grew
worse. Then you gave me a bottle of
Brazilian Halm. I had little or no faith
in it, but decided to try it. I took 3 or
4 good doses before bed time, and rubbed
it well over my blistered side. That
night I slept like a top my first good
