OUR COUNTRY : First, Last and Forever.
One of the reasons for the general
advance along the line of business
improvement can be found in the in
creased exports of goods of Ameri
can manufacture.
Bishop Tuiinku's declaration that
"It is the will of God that the negroes
should go back to Africa" places the
Georgia lynohers in the incongruous
position of being the spokesmen of
the Almighty.
Thk Democrats will be compara
tively weak in the next United States
Senate, owing to the great losses they
have sustained at the more recent
elections. The changes of the past
three years have- retired the great
leader of his party in that body,
Gorman, of Maryland.
Thk largest estimates of the Klon
dike gold yield this season ranges
from $12)00,000 to $20,000,000. The
Klondike Nugget puts the output at
from $12,000,000 to $15,000,000. The
Midnight Sun says it will be nearly
$20,000,000. The gold supply is not
diminishing, by any means.
Public opinion, though not always
an infallible test of the truth, is
usually right, and there can be no
reasonable doubt that it indorses ad
vertising when the same is conducted
along legitimate lines. The mer
chant who makes regular and judi
cious use of a popular newspaper's
columns is in accord with public
opinion, and may expect to reap good
results therefrom. Record.
Onb of the, most convincing evi
dences of the return of -prosperity is
the advancing of wages in many of
the large industrial establishments of
the country almost every day
records the gratifying intelligence
that thousands of employes in differ
ent sections of the country have had
their pay increased. This is far more
pleasant news than the gruesome
tales of reductions in wages. The
free silver press was filled with
articles bearing upon stagnation in
business a year ago, but why do they
fail to publish the increase being
daily granted to wage-earners ?
New Hercantile Law.
The new mercantile tax law, signed
by Governor Stone, has not been re
ceived very favorably by the mer
chants of Shenandoah, as it imposes
upon them additional taxation, and
additional responsibilities. The new
law imposes an annual tax of two
dollars on retail dealers and one mill
additional on each dollar of the whole
volume of business transacted annu
ally. Wholesale dealers shall pay an
annual tax of three dollars and one
half mill additional on each dollar of
the whole volume of business trans
acted annually. Dealers at exchanges
and boards of trade are required to
pay a tax of twenty-five cents on each
$1,000 worth of goods so sold.
Mercantile Appraisers shall be np
pointed by the County Commission-
era annually on or before December
30. The blanks to be distributed by
the Mercantile Appraisers are to be
prepared by the Auditor General, and
shall contain an affidavit to which
the dealer shall subscribe. The
whole volume of business, including
cash receipts and merchandise sold
on credit, shall be the basis on which
the license is to be rated.
If the owner, proprietor or any
other person connected with a bus!
ness refuses to produce the books
and papers and appear before the
County Treasurer to give information
on which to base his tax, he is made
liable to a penalty of $1000. All deal
ers coming under the act are required
to place permanently at the entrance
to their place of business a sign de
scribing the business in which they
are engaged, under a penalty of $10
for each and every offence. It is estl
mated that the new law will raise an
annual revenue of over $1,000,000.
The Governor also signed a bill re
quiring transient retail merchants in
cities and borough to pay a license
of not lees than $25 nor more than
$200 a month, the amount to be fixed
by Council. The license in townships
for such dealers U fixed at $25 a
tnonth and is mode payable to the
County Treasurer for the use of the
school fund of the township, All
licenses are to be renewed monthly,
and failure to obtain such a license
is mode payable by a fino of not less
than $100 nor more than $200,

HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or common glasss with your
water and ct it stand twenty-four hours:
a sediment or settling indicates an unheal
thy condition of the kidneys j if it stains
your linen it is evidence of kidney trouble ;
too frequent desire to pass it or pain in tbe
back is also convincing proof that the kidneys
and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
Tlieie is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the hack,
kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the
urinary passages. It corrects inability to hold
water and scalding pain in passing it, or had
effects following use of liquor, wine or beer,
and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of
being compelled to go often during the day,
and to get up many times during the night.
The mild and the extraordinary cflect of
Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the
highest for its wonderful cures of "the most
distressing cases. If you need a medicine you
should have the best. At druggists fifty cents
or one dollar.
You may have a sample bottle and n hook
that tells more about it, both sent absolutely
free by mail, if you send your address to Dr.
