OUR COUNTRY : First, Last and Forever,
HAS tlio New York Journal deserted
Bryan and his favorite doutua ? The
Journal alone can answer.
Oi r Democratic friends are hopeful,
says an ex -linnse. This Is important.
The Kejmblican county chairman
should immediately seeU n conference.
TllK Republican state leaders ap
pear to be divided in their choice for
state chairman. May we not suggest
the gentleman from Auburn ? We
have made the suggestion, and await
the result.
TllK North American's special cor
respondent at Havana, says the senti
ment of the Cubans has undergone a
radical change in the last two
months. The Islanders are now
strong for annexation.
Editoii Wilson, of the Pottsville
Tribune, temporarily suspended,
knows more about tho average
Schuylkill politician now than ho
did six months ago. They seldom are
willing to pay the fiddler.
Thk editors of the Scrantonian of
Scranton, ought to be growing rich
rapidly if It be true, as Horace
Greeley once said, that "a libel suit in
worth at least $10,000 to a newspaper."
The Scrantonian editors now have
four such suits on their hands.
Tim Hon. William Douglass Seltzer,
who claims to be president of the
Good Government party, vonchsafed
the information that his followers
will support the Republican county
ticket. The Deiuocrats have taken
to the woods, since learning of this
announcement.
From all quarters comes news of
the prosperity prevailing through the
country. The Railway Age of Chicago
says : Freight traffic throughout the
country is so heavy that a shortage
of cars is the general cry. The large
grain traffic in the West and the coal
traffic in the East are responsible for
this condition of things. Even in
New England every available freight
car is being pressed into service,
owing to the steady growth of all
kinds of traffic. From present indi
cations the year 1899 will eclipse all
former years in the volume of busi
ness handled. The wheat crop,
which has been mostly harvested, is
heavy throughout the West and
Northwest, although there has been
some damage on account of excessive
rrrfns and the heat, and the late rains
give assurance of a large yield of
corn. The condition of the average
western farmer was never better than
it is to-day, and all signs point to a
continuation of the general prosperity
which the country is now enjoying.
Pensions Decrease.
It Is evident from the advance
sheets issued by the Commissioner of
Pensions that from now on there will
be a steady diminution in the amount
of money paid out by the United
States government for pensions. It
is uoyv almost forty years since the
Civil War broke out, and in tho
natural course of events, the soldiers,
who then enlisted as young men and
who survive are approaohing the
three-score and ten year period in
their lives.
Very many of the old veterans have
passed away, and it Is to be aorpeoted
that the list of those who depart
each year will grow longer until all
slialLhuve passed over to the great
majority.
In this whole matter of pension the
Government has endeavored to fulfill
its duty in caring for the men who left
homes and families and risked their
lives In defense of the ling and the
Union. There has doubtless been
abuses and wrongs which have crept
into the service. Some have perhaps
received pensions to which they were
not entitled, while others have been
deprived of their Just dues.
But on the whole there can be no
question but that the Government
has made an honest effort todisoharge
its obligations to its defenders. There
yejt remains thpse who have passed
through the Cuban war, and those
who are engaged In the" Philippines,
and for them, too, the Government
will make just provision In return for
their duvotion to their country.

Consumption Cured.
DROUGHT HACK FROM TUB GRAVE.
Last November Mr. Joseph James,
painter, of 32S W. Pearl St., Indianapo
lis, Intl., was at death's door with quick
consumption. Wasted to a skeleton;
his lungs a mass of ulceration; his
death was hourly awaited by his doctor
and family. He was kept hi a constant
stupor with opium. A friend, thinking
to relieve his terrible cough, gave him a
bottle of Brazilian Balm. Seding its
wonderful effect, the doctor advised Its
continued use. Mr. James soon after
dismissed his doctor, and depended
on the Balm alone. His recovery was
rapid and complete, and lu February he
returned to work. His lungs are sound,
and lm weight greater than at any time
in his life. His recovery is regarded as
almost a miracle.
COMMA BACILLUS.
In consumption beware of cough mix
tures and prescriptions that contain
opium. Opium paralizes the nerves,
and gives the comma bacillus a good
chance to destroy the lungs. It is
always fatal. .Brazilian Balm does not
contain a trace of any opiate, but stimu
lates the nerves with new life and power,
destrovs the microbe, and restores all
that is left of the diseased lungs to a
sound and healthy state which no other
remedy has ever been known to accom
plish. Shenandoah djug itoro, wholesale agent
