In the absence of an olive branch,
we woulil suggest a Ilfty-cent dinner
for the Democratic factions.
The justice whodedded that under
some circumstances a husband has
the right to strike his wife with his
fists, neglected to saywhat. the wife
would be justified in doing to the
husband under the same circum
stances. Editor Wilson, of the Mt. Carmel
News, who is reported to have pur
chased the Pottsville Chronicle, and
to assume charge the first of next
month, corroborates the report in an
editorial in his paper of Saturday.
His actions, he says, may be in
fluenced for a time by the disposition
of his Mt. Carmel plant, which he
offers for sale.
The Democratic Brooklyn Eagle,
in referring to the fact that the New
York Times favors the nomination
of Richard Olney by the Democrats
in 1900 for the presidency, remarks
that "the probability is Mr. Olney
will yoto for AVilliam McKinley for
that office, and the Times will ask its
readers to do the same thing." This
forecast is probably correct.
The publishers of Profitable Ad
vertising have purchased the well
known advertising journal of New
"York city known as "Art in Advertis
ing." This high-class magazine will
now be consolidated with tho first
named publication. Profitable Ad
vertising is recognized as the leading
advertising publication and the con
flolidation will greatly augment its
worth alike to its readers and its ad'
vertising patrons.
The bribery investigating com
mittee at Harrisburg has made its
report in fact, a double-ender was
presented. Doth reports, however,
reach the same conclusion, but by
different ways. The majority report
recommends that criminal prosecu
tions be instituted against Coyle,
Costello, Moyles and Spatz, us impli
cated by the testimony. The minority
report recommends that the eyidence
be submitted to the District Attorney
of Dauphin county. If the latter
plan be adopted, it would probably
mean that the evidence would be
filed away, and acted upon at the
leisure of the. District Attorney.
Republicans Warned.
The speeches delivered at the ban
quets which have been held to coin
memorate Jefferson's birthday indi
cate very clearly that while the Dem
ocrats may be divided on the subject
of money, while some of them may be
in favor of expansion and others op
posed to it, there is one thing upon
which they are agreed, and which it
will behoove the party in power to
take notice of...
All factions of the Democratic party,
whether in New York, Chicago or
Milwaukee, are a unit in demanding
that some governmental action shall
be taken to check the growth and
spread of trusts. The greut burden of
the remarks at all the banquets has
been "anti-trust."
Tho Republican party Is now in
power. Before a presidential election
occurs there will be a session of Con
gress. If that Congress, which is Re
publioan, does not do something in
the way of legislation for the people
as against the trusts, the Democratic
party will be in a position to drop all
other planks and make the fight on
the single plank of anti-monopoly.
The consensus of opinion is that
trusts are inimical to the welfare of
the people, and the party in power
will be held responsible, whether
justly or not, for their existence. It
will be a most difficult problem to
handle, but the Republican party has
proved itself capable of settling other
great questions, and will no doubt be
able to settle this one.
Fana's Elootlon TTndor Martini Law,
Pana, Ills., April 18. Captain Couch
has placed on duty throughout tin
city a double provost guard to pre
vent an outbreak at today's municipal
election. The issue is non-union negro
labor, and there is much feeling on
both sides. Thirty union miners yes
terday entered pleas of guilty to hold
ing up a train bearing 100 negroes
from Washington, Ind., to Pana, on
Sept. 29 last and were fined 20 and
costs and sentenced to 30 days In jail
each. The Jail sentence was remitted,
the union paid the fines, and tho men
were released. Tho cases of 100 more
miners indicted for the offense were
continued until June.
THE LAKG CITY LYNCHING".

Thttrwilay Koxt.
Charleston, S. C, April 18. After
eottlng up alibis for Webstar,. Joyner
and Godwin yostorday the dofonso In
the trial of the alleged Lako City
lyncliors closed ltn case. Alibis were
put forward for Rodgera, MelCnlght,
Bpps and Ward last week, so the only
man In whoso behalf efforts havo not
been made to ostalillsh one Is Stokes,
the merchant who has been alleged by
the government to have been the
loader of the mob that killed Uaker.
It was claimed on the stand that Cod
win was Blck at home; that Joynor
slont at his own residence with a
school boy and that Webster was nt
his own residence with the grip the
night of the lynching.
The sensation of the day enmo nftor
tho defenso had closed Its caso. Among
IU effort- to break down the testimony
of Newman, the man who turncdstate's
evidence, was a pay certificate. It was
not dated, tho date evidently having
been scratched out; but tho defenso
claimed It was Issued Feb. 21. In re
buttal the government placed tho stub
book of tho county supervisor In evi
dence, showing that the stub before
and tho one after that of Newman
was each Issued Feb. 23. Tho Infer
ence that the Newman ticket had been
directly falsified was directly made,
and Is oxpected to cut n considerable
flguro In the case In tho futuro.
The government has about 25 more
witnesses to examine so argument
will scarcely begin beforo Wednesday.
Tho caso may reach the JuryThursday.

Some Foolish People
Allow a cough to run until it gets beyond the
reach of medicine. They often say, "Oh, it

Regardless Of Age.
The kidneys are responsible for more sick
ness, suffering, and deaths than any other
organs of the bddy.
A majority of the ills afflicting people to
day is traceable to kidney trouble. It prevades
all classes of 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.
Uric acid, or brick-dust deposit in urine
are signs of clogged kidneys, causing poisoned
and germ-filfed blood. Sometimes the heart
acts badly, and tube casts (wasting of the
kidneys) are found n the urine, which if
neglected will result in Bright's Disease, the
most dangerous form of kidney trouble.
All these symptoms 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
easy to get at auv drug store at fifty cents or
one dollar. You can have a sample bottle of
this wonderful discovery, Swamp-Root, and a
book telling all about it, both sent to you
absolutely free by mail. Send your address to
Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., and
kindly mention that you read this liberal offer
in the Shenandoah Herald.

Now York, April 18. In tho session
of the Mnzot Legislative Investigating
committee yesterday Richard Croker
was ngnln tho principal ohjoct of Mr.
Moss' examination, nnd tho most Im
portant development was tho probabil
ity that the Tammany chloftaln and
John F. Carroll will ho the subject of
contempt proccdlngs beforo tho stnto
legislature shall adjourn. All during
yesterday's evldenco Mr. Crokor par
ried the questions of tho counsel of tho
cotnmlttco and refused to satisfy tho
members with tho amount of Informa
tion ho was willing to givo regarding
certain matters which ho classified as
"personal affairs."
An adjournment of tho committee
was taken yesterday until next Fri
day morning, and Mr. Crokor was sub
penaod to reappear beforo the session
next Monday morning. By tho Initia
tive of Mr. Moss, tunny of whoso ques
tions Mr. Crokor repeatedly refused to
answer, and with whom ho had several
sallies that came vory near being per
sonal, the chairman of tho commit
tee took such action as would leave
Mr. Croker In technical contempt. It
was stated thnt when Mr. Fallow, of
tho committee, left yesterday aftor
noon for Albany he had instructions
to prepare papers adjudging Mr. Croker
and John F. Cnrroll In contompt.
When tho commltteo began yester
day's Inquiry, about tho first thing
brought up was a resort known as tho
Broadway Garden, which had flour
ished In the upper Broadway district
for some time. In this place the alleged
robbery of the former mayor of Tren
ton. Frank Magowan. took place, and
Simon Buttner, the former proprietor
of tho nlaco. and soveral of nls waiters
wore examined. Duttner made some
startling charges against police Cap
tain Price, and his waiters corrobor
ated, In part, his testimony. Buttner
said that at his Broadway Garden
everything had gone well until Cap
tain Prlco came to tho precinct. Then,
Buttner said, It wns a case of "hands
up." Buttnor swore that the first
thing Price did was to threaten to
close tho Broadway Garden up unless
he received $150 and half of any rob
bery that was accomplished In It. On
one occasion, Buttner said, a woman
robbed a man of $3,000 and gave the
whole amount to tho wardman. The
money was returned to the loser and
the woman lot go. She was "pro
tected." Buttner told of numerous
cases of persecution and "bleeding" by
Captain Price.
Assemblyman Hoffman offered
resolution to havo certain promlnont
men summoned beforo tho committee,
because of a rumor that a certain
law firm "by and with the assistance
of other persons, by corrupt methods
secured the passage through the as
semhly" of the Astoria gas franchise,
whose real purpose "was to enable the
Consolidated Gas Company to force a
consolidation of all the gas interests of
the city, to the end that the supply of
gas might be controlled and the price
regulated by the .so-called consolida
tion." Mr. Hoffman wanted to sub

feated, however, flvo Republicans op
posing it and two Domocrats favoring
it.
Richard Crokor testified that the
police did not contribute a cent to tho
Tammany campaign last year, but that
the officeholders did. He could not
tell the amount of money raised last
year, nor dm ne Know in what bank
the funds wero kept. Ho said he had
never received a cent from Bourke
Cockran. He also swore he was never
caught short with Manhattan "L"
stock, and did not lose $27,000, as re
ported.
Wnen Mr. Mosj saia tnat Mr. Crokor
had found that in business matters,
like that of Peter Meyer & Co., mem
bers of the organization could help
each other, Mr. Croker said angrily:
"You are trying to make us out a
pack of thieves in one combination to
gether, and you can t do It."
"And you tblnk that these questions
indicate that persons who do these
things are thieves?" queried Mr. Moss.
"That Is what you are trying to get
at," said Mr. Crokor, thoroughly arous
ed. "I say that the people of the city
of Now York, when they voted for our
ticket, voted to put In the organiza
tion and believed in the organization
and believed that the organization
should run this city. And when you
were put out of tho police board that
is what you were put out for becauso
you wero not an organization man."
After a further exchange of sharp
words, Mr. Croker becoming enraged,
Mr. Moss remarked that It was evi
dent that Mr. Croker realized the "seri
ousness of the occasion." The Tam
many loader retorted;
"Not very serious. I am not going
away. I am going to stay here until
tho circus Is over. You can have mo
any day you want."
Later on Mr. Moss asked: "Have
you not during the last year received
large sums of money from Individuals
which were not your profit or earnings
from nny business?"
"No!" Bhouted Mr. Croker, and he
repeated his answer.
Mr. Croker was seen at the Demo
cratic club last night and asked If he
had any comment to make upon the
refusal of the Mazet commlttteo to
subpoena Tracy, Boardman, Piatt and
others alleged to have been Interested
in the Astoria Gas franchise. "I am
not at all surprised by that action,"
said Mr. Croker. "Why should the
commltttee call Tracy, Boardman and
Piatt? What would it amount to?
Why, simply that Tracy,Boardmanand
Piatt had summoned Tracy, Boardman
and Piatt to be investigated."

The terror of many women's lives is men
struation. Such women wear themselves out with
suffering and seem to think there is no relief
from the monthly pains.

" Deau Mrs. Pinkham I
wish to stn'to that I used your
Vegotablo Compound with
the greatest success, l was
very sick for nearly a year
with hysteria, was down
hearted nnd nervous; also
suffered with painful mens
truation and pain in back
nnd limbs. I often wished
for death, thinking nothing
would euro me. I had
doctors, but their medicines
did me no good. At Inst, by
the advice of a friend, I be
gan to take Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound
with very little hope of its
doing me any good, but I am
happy to say I am entirey
cured. Thanking you for
the good your medicine has
done me, I am sending you
my testimonial, hoping it
will help others."

Mrs. C. D. Smith, 221

"Dear Mrs. Pinkham
I gladly give you my
testimonial in favor of
your remedios. When I
first commenced your
treatment I had been
suffering from female
troubles and weakness for
some timo. Menses were
irregular, coming too of
ten, and were very pain
ful. I eould not walk
a great distanoe, had those
terriblo bearing-down feeling
in the lower part' of bowels,
backache, and pain in left
ovary. I used five bottles of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, and my menses
have become regular, and am
cured of that bearing-down
feeling after walking.
I consider your Com
pound one of the best
medicines there is for
those complaints pecu
liar to women. I thank
you for the good advice
you gave me. I will
gladly recommend your
medicine, and hope
that every one who
suffers as I did will
give it a trial."
To sacrifice beauty,
to a false idea is folly. Generations of ignor
ance have handed down belief in the necessity
of monthly suffering. A healthy woman
should experience but little pain and only a
moderate amount of inconvenience.
Mrs. Van Ooft Advises Women.
"Dear Mrb. Pinkham For soveral years my health was
miserable. I suffered the most dreadful pains, and was almost
on the verge of insanity. I consulted one of the best physi
cians in New York, and he pronounced my disease a fibroid
tumor, advising an operation without delay, Baying that it was
my only chance for life. Other doctors prescribed strong.and
violent medicine, and one said I was incurable, another told
me my only salvation was galvanic batteries, which I tried,
but nothing relieved me. One day a friend called and begged
me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I began
its use and took soveral bottles. From the very first bottle
there was a wonderful change for the better. The tumor has
disappeare4 entirely and my old spirits have returned. I
heartily recommend your medicine to all suffering women."
