Thk price of brooms, under the

Now that Schrink has been ap

since the adjournment of Congress,
there is grief in certain quarters.
The Republican's "exclusive an
nouncement" lias miscarried.
A bill has been Introduced into
the Legislature directing the County
Commissioners to pay items to con
stables for services rendered in mak
ing returns to Court and attending
elections for the years 1897 and 1898,
for which time they have received no
pay, but were obliged under the law
to perform official duties.
Is respect to the bribery investiga
tion at Harrisburg, in which serious
charges are made against ex-Senator
Coyle, public judgment must be sus
pended, for the case now becomes one
for the disposition of the courts. We
differ from the rulings of Chairman
Vow, and believe that the accused
should be given equal opportunity by
the committee to be heard as that
which was accorded the accusers.
The people seek only justice. .
The Governor's Warning.
The rather alarming situation
which confronts the members of the
Legislature in their efforts to meet
the needs of the state in the matter
of appropriation was carefully con
sidered this week at a conference be
tween Governor Stone and members
of the Committee on Appropriations
of the House. The object of the
meeting was to discuss plans to pro
vide revenue for the state for the
next two years.
The Governor did not hesitate to
express the opinion that unless some
unusual source of revenue shall be
found, it may be necessary to out the
state school appropriation down
from $5,500,000 to $4,000,000 per an
num. The chairman of tho com
inittee, who is familiar with the un
successful attempts on the part of
former Legislators to make a similar
cut, expressed the belief that it would
be difficult to get the votes in this
Legislature to do this.
The Governor has determined that
he will not approve of any appropria
tion to hospitals or educational insti
tutions, including the normal schools,
unless additional revenue is provided.
Under existing conditions the only
bills that will receive his signature
are those making appropriations to
the executive, judicial and legislative
branches of the government, tho In
stitutions forthe care of the insane
and the National Guard. If the
revenues warrant, next to these he
would favor appropriations for insti
tutions like the House of Refuge, and
then the hospitals, giving preference
In the last-named oases to institutions
that cared for the sick and wounded
soldiers in the late war.
Governor Stone will insist that pro
vision be made to cancel the floating
debt of 3,500,000 due on appropria
tions made by previous Legislatures
and still unpaid, as he desires to have
this item liquidated during his term
of office. He desires that f800,000 ad
ditional shall be given to the National
Guard to meet the expense of organ
izing and equipping the six new regi
ments.
Many members of the committee
do not hesitate to express the opinion
that the appropriation of $11,000,000
to the public schools every two years
or about one-half of the entire
revenue of the state, seriously em
barrasses those who are charged with
the responsibility of meeting other
state needs, and they feel that this
item should be out down.
Any effort on the part of the Legis
lature to cut down the school appro
priation will meet with much opposi-

Chicago, Mnrch 10. Fifty people nar
rowly escaped denth last night lit an nc-
cident to a llalstend street electric car
on North llalstead street bridge. Ap
proaching the bridge nt a rapid rate of
bpeed, the motorman of t tie cur failed tt
notice that the draw was open. Wheu
within a few feet of the river he sud
denly discovered the danger and put ou
the brakes, at the same time endeavor
ing to reverse the electric current. In
spite of his efforts the front pait of the
car ran down upon the abutments of the
bridge and hung there. One foot further
nnd it would have plunged into the rivet,
30 feet below, and as it was jammed
with passengers the loss of Hfo must
have been frightful. The motorman,
thinking that the car was doomed,
warned the passengers nnd then jumped
into the river. The tipping of the car
on tho abutment, accompanied by the
motorman's warning, caused a panic
among the passengers,and they made a
wild stampede' for the doors.
During the rush for safety four of the
passengers were injured. They are: Al
bert Itose, sprained ankle; Mrs. Mary
Farnsworth, prostrated by fright:
Charles Itltchcr, ankle sprained; Minnie
O Houlihan, cut by fulling glass from
the windows of the car.
The motorman, nfler jumping into the
river, managed to clutch some piles nnd
keep his heajl nbove the water until he
was dragged out.
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 the 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 ;
f 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, or may run into
Bright' s Disease, the most dangerous stage of
kidney trouble.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great dis
covery of the eminent kidney and bladdei
specialist, is a positive remedy for sucli dis
eases. Its reputation is world-wide and it is

need suffer any length of time for want of it

Immediately upon tli6 arrival of his train
here, as lie hnd telegraphed nhead that
he desired 'tn make a statement in regard
to the shooting affair at Grillln, Ga. Ho
said:
"We struck Griffin, Gn., about 5 o'clock
yesterdny afternoon. I do not think
there wore moro than a doten revolvers
In the hands of tho men. When we
milled out of Vlnfcvllle there was some
shooting in the air from the train. The
men were full of good spirits and hnd no
intention to harm nny one. No shots
were fired when wo went into the town
of (i ii 111 n. I was surprised to find men
lined up 011 either side or the depot.
About 50 of them wore uniforms. I In
quired what the trouble was nnd wns
(old that tho first section had been dis
orderly nnd the citizens wanted to pro
teet themselves. I told my men to bo
quiet, nnd there wns 110 disorder. The
train stopped nbont live minutes.
"The train had pulled wit about 200
yards when some of the men in the for
ward part of the trnln fired some shots.
The militia then fired into the rear car.
George Lagee. the brnkeman, who was
standing 011 the platform, wns shot. One
ball passed through his leg, another
through his thigh nnd still another bul
let through his body. As the car passed
a body of militia a volley was fired Into
It, notwithstanding the fnct Hint four
Indies wore nt the windows. The wife
of one of the captains who was seated
by the window had a narrow escape.
"l'p to .'I:!!!) o'clock, when I left Macon
yesterday afternoon, not one of tho dep

Doolnrod Not to Ito a Coimolldnttoni
Hut an Uncierstnmiuitf.
New York. March 10. The Commercial
Advertiser soysi The coal men express
themselves ns well pleased Willi me su
uatlon, which, they say, Is "very satis
factory." llcyond tills they win not. go,
nnd definite news ns to the alleged com
lilnntlnn of interests representing $1)00,
000,000 of capital Is not procurable nt
this time. Ko fnr ns can lie learncu 1110
situation Is this:
An arrangement seems to have been
rencbed between the lending rnllroads
cngnged In the coal business; that Is,
between tho Morgan roads on tnc one
hand and the Vanderbllt lines on the
other; the Lncknwntinn, which has here
tofore occupied the position of a free
lance, making nnd cutting rates without
regard to the other Interests, having been
whipped In.
The arrangement was brought about by
the Influence of the large operators who
would use the proposed Independent road
from Scrnuton to New lork, known as
the New York, Wyoming nnd Western.
Unless some unexpected obstacle to the
present nrrnugement appears that road
will not be built. Simpson and Watkins,
the largest operators In Scrnnton, have
merged nil their coal companies Into one
large concern, to he known as theTemple
Iron company. These companies have
an aggregate cnpltnl of nearly $100,000,
000, mid mine about l,r00,000 tons of
anthracite yearly. This firm was one
of the principal backers of the proposed
road, but Mr. atkins now says they
have no further interest in it, ns there
is no longer nny necessity for it.
In brief the situation may be summed
up In the words of the president of one of
the coal companies, who said:
"There are no papers In any formal
consolidation to be signed, no com
binntion In the sense of a trust, nnd no
new company to take over the present
col companies, except in the case .of some
Individual operators. There is simply
n community of Interests among the hold
ers of the coal stocks which enable them
nil to have n better understanding of the
situation, thereby Insuring- better busi
ness for all the coal properties.

together with all the household furni

Proposed Hoot nnd Shoo Combine.
Boston, March 10. The shoe and
leather men of this city and the shoe
towns of the state are greatly interested
in a proposition that has been made to
form a national boot and shoe trust. It
appears that the matter was broached to
manufacturers by Smith & Ryan, of Chi
cago. There seems to be a decided dif
ference of opinion. The largest manu
facturers generally throw cold water on
what they cull the feeble attempts to
form a combination.
Foul-Smelling
Catarrh.
Catarrh is one of the most obstinate
diseases, nnd hence the molt difficult
to cet rid of.
There is hut one way to cure it,
The disease is in the blood, and all the
sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures
In the world can have no permanent
effect whatever upon it. Swift's Spe
cific cures Catarrh permanently, for it is
the only remedy which can reach the
disease and force it from the blood.
Mr, B. P. McAllister, of Harrodsburg,
Ky., had Catarrh for years. lie writes:
' T Ann I I apt rn fmmrWAmnn. .t..,
though I was constantly treated with snrayi
uu wnsucs, ana ainer
ent Inhaling remedies
In fap,t, I could feel thai
each winter I was worn
than the year previous
"Finally It wai
brought to my notlo"
that catarrh was a blood
disease, and after think
ing over the matter, 1
saw It was unreasonabli
toexpeottobecured bv
remedies which onlv
reached the surface. I
then decided to in
8. 8. B.. and after & fsw linttles went ni,rt. T nn.
tlced a perceptible Improvement. Continuing
the remedy, the disease was forced out of my
system, and a complete cure was the result.
I advise all who have this dreadful disease tc
abandon thclrloc&l treatmnn t- which hnsnnv...
uuuo ineui any gooa, ana taxe . a. b a rem'
edy that oan reach tha dlsxasa and en re it."
To continue the wrong treatment for
Catarrh is to continue to suffer. Swift's
Specific is a real blood remedy, and
cures obstinate, deep-seated diseases,
which other remedies have no effect
whatever anon. It promptly reaches
uiuurrii, ni in never laus io cure even tno
most aggravated cases,
