SoMK of our exchanges lire still nt loggerheads over the recently elected secretary of the Democratic County Committee. Our friends tne enemy are Boetiiinjrly ii"t united in their en dorsements of the uointees. Oswaiid find upward tile star of the Herald takes its way. Our cir culation took a big jump this week, and yet some editors say these are not prosperous times. Perhaps they do not deserve prosperity themselves, and hence their reluctunoy in grasp ing the situation. JUDGING from the personnel of the committee on New Counties and County Seats, just announced at llar risburg, the new county "boomers" from Huzleton will find much trouble in securing a favorable report on their pet scheme to divide Schuylkill county. Senators Loach and Higgins are members of the Senate cominitteo and Representative Noeoker is on the House committee. There are other members known to be agalifst the project. Dr. Swallow says that he would be willing to vote for Seuatoj- Quay under certain conditions. "If Quay were dead and repentant," says the doctor, "I would vote for him to oc cupy a seat in heaven ; or living, I would gladly support him for a cell in the penitentiary. Our opinion of the reverend gentleman hits not changed, and we ure now more firmly convinced than ever that he has missed his calling. He and Eagan should occupy the same pew. Tub Quay managers apparently have little use for Schuylkill county when the plums are to be distributed. The slate committee at Harrisbnrg has announced the uppoiutuie-nts but not one faithful from this county is among the list. And that, too, in face of the fact that the single Re publican representative from Schuyl kill voted for Quay. Perhaps the "old man" thinks we should be satis fled with the plum given the gallant Major Finney. "What think you, Brother Zerbey 1 That the office should seek the man and not the man the office, is an Americanism that has quite passed into practical oblivion. The more's Vaxi ylif. It is the fearful vice of self seeking that is at the bottom of all our troubles in connection with the management of public affairs. In some parts of the country this health ful old-fashioned notion of the "office seeking the man" still prevails, but in most places in this commonwealth, and especially in Schuylkill county, the element of personal strife for public place is painfully conspicuous, It ought not to be so. It is refreshing to know that at least a number of Democratic news papers have the courage to express their honest convictions as to the business conditions of the country. It might be well to state, however, that these editors are not contami nated with the free silver dogma, Here is what the Philadelphia Times, Democratic, says : "Everything now points to a season of most substantial prosperity, and there is not even a cloud as big as a man's hand on the business horizon to indicate the possi bility of revulsion. There is danger of reaching the point of reckless in llation but that has not yet reen ap proached, and until it does oome the general business of the country may be regarded as based on the most sub stantial foundation. Our country has trwla.v everv possible element of prosperity for all classes and oondi tions, with every indication that it must endure until some great failure of industrial products or wild infla tion in speculative oircles shall halt the highest tide of the most health ful Droirress the nation has ever known." HELPS HER WONDERFULLY Afflicted With Humor for Years Now Cured. "I have been a sufferer with rheu xnatism aud have taken Hood's Sarsapa- xilla which has given me complete relief, .and made me feel better in overy way. My daughter is now taking it for a soror nlous condition of the blood, and it is helping her wonderfully.

Brigadier General G. W. Davis, mili tary governor of the department of Plnar del Bio, has Issued an order pro hibiting cock lighting. His action Is appaluded by the best elements in the community. The prisoners at the Presidio, Ha vana, have voluntarily surrendered 378 knives and other similar defensive weapons, which under the Spanish regime they "carried concealed about their pei sons as a protection against the harsh measures to which they were some times subjected at the hands of the guards. Lieutenant Colonel Jhn talvo, thd administrator of the prison, thanked them so warmly that several prb oners wept. Regardless Of Age. . The kidneys are responsible for more sick neas nfferini?. and deaths than any other orcans of the body. A majority of the ills afflicting people to day is traceable to kidney trouble. It prevades all classes ot society, in all climates, regard less of age, sex or condition. The symptoms of kidney trouble are unmis takable, such as rheumatism, neuralgia, sleep lessness, pain or dull ache in the back, a desire to urinate often day or night, profuse or scanty supply. Uri-- acid, or brick-dust deposit in urine are signs of clogged kidneys, causing poisoned and perm-filled blood. Sometimes the heart acts badly, and tube casts (wasting ot tne kidneys) are found in the urine, which il neglected will result in Bnght's Disease, tne most dangerous form of kidney trouble. All these symploms and conditions are promptly removed under the influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. It has a world wide reputation for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. No one need be long without it as it is so easv to tret at anv drug store at fifty cents or one dollar.

The foreign office in forms the press correspondents . that the olilclal reports received from Samoa by the government tally with those re ceived by the press. In any event Ger many will not support any possible Irregularity Inconsistent with the treaty, but, the foreign office offlclnls point out, It is not yet clear thut the German consul at Apia has been guilty of any Irregularities of that nature. On the contrary, the foreign office Insists, it still remains to be explained why Mataafa's election was declared In valid, as he was admittedly elected by an overwhelming majority. The foreign office admits that Ger many has long been dissatisfied with the condominium, which In its nature Is provisional, "though unfortunately other powers,' especially the Washing ton government, have thought other wise." The foreign office officials say that the captain of the German warship Falke, at Apia, "does not attach much Importance to the recent incidents," and hence the government does not In tend to send additional warships to Samoa unless the other powers do. A dispatch from Wellington, N. Z., announces that the British third class cruiser Tauranga has staited for Samoa. ' In authoritative quarters here It Is firmly believed that the diplomatic ne gotiations which must now Inevitably be resumed will lead to a solution of the Samoan question satisfactory to all the Interested powers. It is thought most Improbable that any complica tions will arise with the United States. How to Look Good.

Dun & Co ii weekly levlBW of trade says; A new year rarely opens brlllftiitly. Too many traders have to wait for the de mand w hlch In the winter comes slow 1 . But the industries resist fairly well the tendency - to unlimited expansion which sore'linve to meet. Speculation in products Is gaining but little, while an enormous volume of business re ...u'tr In contlnunlly higher prices. Dif ficulties between holders of material nnd manufacture continue to hinder In some Industries, and In some may prove 1-eiicusl.y embarrassing, but the activity is on the whole unsurpassed hlih'erto, and the volume of traffic is lievnnd nil exnectatlotis. In some branches conMim'ptlon Is running be yond the producing- capacity, but m others It is hindered by doubts about the future supplies vnd prices of ma terials. The Iron and steel iiianurac tin er leads all others III the volume of new business. While production is 'much the largest over known, many of the works are withdrawing all quota Hons or naming prohibitory prices In order to chbek orders which they can not fill for months to come, and do not want to uccept at current prices, The number of such works Is rapidly increasing, as the heavy demand for materials covers many months capac lly. The conditions favor a continuance of the extraordinary foreign trade which tfsulted in the greatest balanc In favor ot this country ever known. Brndstreet's review says: The con tinued strength pf'stuple values, ac centuated this week by further ad vances In Iron and steel and other metals, In cotton ut the south and In lumber at some western points, has undoubtedly added to the confidence with which the outlook for the ensuing year is legnrded. That this confidence has a fair bnsls in fact will be gathered from the reports received from the Iron aud cotton goods trade, the firmness In cotton goods being of considerable Interest In view of the depression -rul Ing throughout the larger part of last year. A strong side light upon the strength of Iron and steel the world over Is offered by 'the statement that Iron in Glasgow this week reached the highest prices noted for ten years past, Young Mothers.
