Tub Heed rules tire to be in force in the House of Representatives at the coming session. This conclusion was reached at a conference of the Republican leaders. It is refreshing to know that al most every foreign country Is anxious for a coalition witli the United States. Englaud and Germany are just now casting longing eyes in this direction. This country has shown its .nrpwees in thej:ecaivV8paTil8nuSi)ieasantne8s. Swindling Syndicates. It is probable that as long as there are people who can invent schemes by which other people are to get something for nothing, or enormous returns for .very small investments, just so long will dupes be found, and men and women will risk their savings in the hope of acquiring sudden riches. The publio has had a number of sharp and severe lessons with "get rich quick" societies, uud it would seem that the experience which the people bad with these should have proved sufficient to make them steer clear of them. But with each new scheme there crops up a fresh lot of lambs ready for the sacrifice. The latest fleecing machine, which has just been closed up in Brooklyn by the police, and which was known by .the honest name of Franklin Syndlcate.promlsed to pay its patrons at the rate of 520 per cent, per annum on their investments. The offer of such preposterous gains should have been sufficient to cause any one to hesitate before investing their money. But judging from the record made by the Syndicate, the money fairly poured into the headquarters of this latest swindling concern. Whatever assets may have been seized by the authorities it is certain that but little of the money invested will ever find its way back Into the pockets of the investors. The number of investors is so large, and the avail able assets seized are so- small, that the amount for each one will be in significant. Those who have been bitten will probably profit by their experience. It has been, doubtless, in many of the cases, an illustration of the old adase. "A fool and his money are soon parted." Almost from the outset of the British occupation of Cape Colony, pays a writer in the Engineering Magazine, there was friction between the two main classes of settlers, who, though distinctly of the same generic stock, failed to assimilate in the friendly manner of the Dutch and English in the settlement of New Amsterdam, called New York after the transfer. The Boers have always claimed, and honestly believed, that they wpre oppressed; which asser tion impartial history cannot be said to have sustained. Great Britain, at least for more than a century, and also at least as regards tier white sub jects, has been scrupulously careful in dealing with colonial affairs. In this instance, one grievance seems to have been as to the abolition of slavery, which was suppressed at about the same period in the British West Indies on a similar adjustment The Boers, however, were incensed on not receiving compensation satis factory to them. This, combined with many other and pre-existing causes. real and imaginary (suoh as extreme love of personal and national inde pendence, racial antipathy, divergent customs and ways of thought) led to the further dispersion of the Boers IMMEDIATE RELIEF AND PERMANENT 0URE JOHNSON'S A Scientific, Unfalllngr and Permanent Rem edy tor Dyspepsia, Indigestion and all btojnacu Mpsia. ii rroublct an J nerve I r e, imin tablet form rtieasam ann easvioisze and affording Immediate relief by enabling nature to furnish natural nourisnracui to me Blood, Nerves ana muscirs.

"I am fifty-nine years old, and enjoy as good health as any man of my age. If anyone has kidney trouble and Warner's Safe Cure will not cure him, nothing will.
