OUR COUNTRY: First. Last and Forevci,
A COUNTVseiU newMpuper says Sen
ator Quay "should nut olT" the Sena
torial contest. If ho is hoavy enough
he should crush it.
Pottsvillk's public buildliijr will
entail an expenditure of $00,000. Yet
the average county Heat resident look
upon it with nti) tliiiix but pride.
SAT8 John Wanainukor, tlio prince
of merchants : "1 owe my success to
the newspapers, and to them 1 freely
give a certain proiit of my yearly
business."
TlIK business men of the town owe
it to themselves and those who pat
ronize them to give the Rescue boys
proper support. If this is done there
will be no necessity for the chemical
engine going out of service.
With a standing offer of 40,000 for
the detection and punishment of
bribery in connection with the Sena
torial election, and 25,000 reward for
the conviction of persons concerned
with corrupt legislation, the way of
the transgressor will be hard at II iir
risburg this winter. -
The order made by the court rela
tive to the slot machines and other
gambling devices in saloons and
hotels has met the approval of the
public generally. There were many
poor men who spent much of their
earnings in these slot machines.
Gambling becomes a passion and
some men can no more resist it than
they can any other passion to which
they have become addicted.
Spain has at last published official
statistics showing the losses sustained
oy lier army during tlie uuuuti war
for the suppression of tlie insurgents.
In round numbers the death roll will
aggregate 80,000 Spanish officers and
soldiers, and nearly all of them per
ished by disease. Only an inlltilte
siinal fraction of these awful losses
were casualties in buttle. There were
no important battles fought, and con
sequently the list of killed is very
small.
Tiik gossips have it that Senator
Gorman's intense opposition to the
peace treaty means that the Eastern
Democrats who hope to prevent the
nomination of Iiryn.ii forPresident in
1000 will centre upon the Maryland
statesman as the man to knock out
the Nebraskan, even if they do not
succeed in placing the latter at the
head of the ticket. Dick Croker, the
boss of Tammany Hall, keeps having
himself interviewed on the subject of
silver at the ratio of 10 to 1 as a dead
issue. Host politicians of the Demo
cratic faith seem to think that Croker
is fayorable to Gorman, and that
Croker is vain enough to think that
he can command power enough to
nominate him.
For the past few days rumors have
been flying thick and fast that there
will soon be another change In the
President's Cabinet. The gossip is
that within six weeks Seoretary Alge
will step down. Some of his friends
state that he long since wearied of
the life at Washintrton but did not
propose to retire while he was unde
the fire of oharces to the effect that
upon his shoulders rested almost en
tirely the responsibility for whatever
mismanagement there was in th
conduct of the war with Spain, Prob
ably within the next flve.wee.k8 the
report of the War Investigating Com
mission will be made public. Accord'
ing to the best Information Seoretary
Alger will not be blamed, though h
may be slightly criticised, but saving
clauses will be inserted to show that
the law and the regulations are not
what they should bo ; and the under
standing is that the members .of th
commission will make a nuuiber of

Ir Castillo, who returned irom
Retnsdlos yesterday after a two days'
visit with General dome, snys the lat
ter Is much hurt by what he regards as
American neglect at his authority and
rights, and is determined not to advise
his soldiers to go home penniless
Gomez purposes coming Into, the neigh
borhood soon, and will review the Cu
ban troops at Marlanao. though the
date has not yet been fixed.
There is some doubt whether he and
the other military chiefs will accept
the J3,000,000, no matter what other
favorable conditions mav be ottered.
Mr. Porter, who It Is understood will
act as the personal representative of
President McKlnley In the negotiations,
has been directed to learn the best
terms that can be made, and Is em
powered to propose what It Is hoped
will be agreenble terms. Much Is ex

Major "Wiley has arrived from SanctI
Splrltus. While there ho heard that, 1J
bandits, led bv a Spanish former of'

with an escort of six. Fortunately he
was not molested. He reports that 1,100
destitute persons are fed dally at
SiinctI Splrltus by the United States

Advices from Trinidad say that last
Friday a private of- the Fourth Tennes

Cuban sergeant for his machete, and
when the weapon was surrendered put
the muzzle of his rifle against the Cu

The quartermaster's department Is

Governor General 'Brooke has cabled
the customs authorities at Santiago to
pay over $60,000 for the city of Santiago
and for each of. the other principal
ports of entry In Santiago province $20,-

government about .J20.000 an arrange

Intending to cover the Intervening dls

for him. He had many enemies, and It
s feared he has fallen a victim to foul
play.
PARSNIP COMPLEXION.
It does not require an expert to detect the
sufferer from kidney trouble. The hollow
cheeks, the sunken eyes, the dark, puffy
circles under die eyes, the sallow parsnip
colored complexion indicates" it.
A physician would ask if you had rheuma
tism, a dull pain or ache in the back or over
the hips, stomach trouble, desire to urinate
often, or a burning or scalding in passing it ;
if after passing there is an unsatisfied feeling
as if it must be at once repeated, or if the
urine has a brick dust deposit or strong odor.
When these symptoms are present, no
time should be lost in removing the cause.
Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the
bladder, inflammation, causing stoppage, and
sometimes requiring the drawing of the
urine with instruments, oi may run into
Blight's Disease, the most dangerous stage of
kidney trouble.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Uoot, the griiU dis
covery ot the eminent kidney ana oiaanei
specialist, is a positive remedy for such dis
eases, Its reputation is world-wide and it is
so easy to get at any drug store that no one
need suffer any length of time for want of it.
However, if you prefer to first test its
wonderful merits, mention Kvbning Herald

Denver, Jan. 31. A News special from
Cripple Creek says of the recent strike
in Isabella ground: "Your correspond
ent saw chunks of sylvanlte that were
three Inches thick and solid metal, and
chunks of the Oxydlzed ore of the same
width that he whittled with his pocket
knife. Pieces of the free gold ore, If
ore it can be called at all, run over
$600,000 per ton. The Mollle Gibson

more ounces In silver per ton than this
Isabella ore does In gold. Joining this
metallic body there Is six feet of quartz

AIM, Polncalre and Bourgeois are or

Justify their conduct they may be
compelled to produce the secret evi

whole truth will come out In the
chamber of deputies.

Friendship Cnlitiot He Slmkvn.
London, Jan. 31. tiisrht Hon. Arthur
.Tames Ilalfotir, first lord of the treas
ury and lender of the Ministerialists
In the house of commons, delivered his
annual address Inst pvenlnfr to his con
stltupnts at Munehester. After speak
ing; of the "Intrinsic dlfllculty which
continental nations find In understand
ing Great Britain's alms," he contin
ued as follows:
"Hut there Is surely one great coun
try which, by community of laiiRUftBa,
religions, blood, origin and even Insti
tutions, Is well fitted to understand us,
and a country which we should be well
fitted to understand. Need I say that
the country to which t refer Is the
United States? Some foreign critics,
cynical by profession and training,
hold the view that the friendship now
happily existing between the Kngllsh
speaking peoples on both sides of the
Atlantic Is but the growth of trtoment.
and depends upon a transitory com
munity of Interests. They affect to
believe that when this disappears
friendship also will disappear. They
hold that It Drlttsh trade should' feel
Injured by some inconvenient tariff
Immediately the sentiments so gener
ally felt at this moment In Great
Britain towards America would vanish
like the leaves In autumn.
"According to my observations," said
Mr Balfour, "the world of cynics Is al
ways wrong I ' believe the cynics
wrong In this 'case If our good rela
tions really depended upon these for
tuitous circumstances, while the lat
ter might be the foundation of an al
liance, they could not bo the founda
tion of what Is Infinitely more Import
ant ot that species of friendship
which, In season and out of season,
through good report or 111, Is not to ba
shaken by mere personal circumstances,"
CARLISM'IS DEAD ONCE A10RE
Spnnlih Monnrohy Firmly IJstnbllshed
and Cnrlos 11ns 'o Show.
London, Jan. 31. The Madrid corre
spondent of The Times, In a letter re
viewing the situation in Spain, says:
"The prospects of Carllsm Is waning.
The farllsts themselves complain that
Don Carlos allowed a great opportunity
to slip when, six weeks ago, the coun
try was lllled with dismay and Indig
nation at the price of defeat. He might
have had a hope of success then, but
now the enthusiasm of even his ardent
admirers Is chilly, and the general
opinion Is that he has little chance, the
subject Is being dropped, the people
realizing that salvation Is not to be
had that way. This result Is not due
to the suppression of Carllst propa
ganda. On the contrary, the govern
ment displays the greatest tolerance.
"The monarchy Is firmly established,
and the Carllsts themselves are too
strongly Interested In the Industries
and welfare of the country to risk Its
ruin through revolution. The clergy,
owing to the pope's influence, are much
less Irreconclllable than formerly.
''The only danger lies In the Basque
provinces, but even there the people
would not fight unless they were well
paid. No doubt the pretender might
succeed If he could win over the army,
but there Is no sign that the army Is
so Inclined."

is a great thing to he first. Nothing is of
more vnlue to mankind and brings great

Catarrh. Cuscs that had, to all appearau

nostrils were entirely stopped upor wliere
the poisonous pus had' eaten holes into
the throat an iuch deep, or wliere the
stomach had become ulcerated and raw
from swallowing the germ-laden matter,
were all permanently cured. Such a rec
ord, unknown to any other remedy, just
