Fill a bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling indicates an unhealthy condition of the kid- neys. When urine stains linen it is positive evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. WHAT TO DO. There is comfort inthe knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp Rout, the great kidney rem- edy, fulfills every wish in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, blad- der and every part of the urinary | passages. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, | or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that un- | pleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urinate. The mild and the | extraordinary effect of Swamp Root | is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases.

The Concord, New Hampshire, Evening Monitor, Senator Chandler’s newspaper contains the following as a leader, under this caption: “The Reduction of Wages is Caused by the Gold Standard. Work for Silver Money, says Senator Chandler.” “A good New Year’s resolution for republicans is to demand and during 1898 struggle for bimetallism. Every man who works for wages should fight against the single gold standard of money, which is the | most potent cause of the recent re- duction in wages in all the factories of New England. The demonetiza- tion of silver and the consequent appreciation of gold which measures values, have contributed to reduce the price of commodities that goods which once have brought the pro- ducer $100 now bring him only $60. This is a world-wide condition | where gold prices prevail; and be- cause the manufacturers cannot get the old prices for goods they say they cannot pay the old prices for labor. But if it had not been for the demonetization of silver, the wagee of labor everywhere in recent years would have risen, because each | laborer has been able, year by year, | to create a larger product, and he has, therefore, been entitled to larger wages as his share of that product. This legitimate rise in wages the adoption of the gold standard has prevented, and instead of a rise comes a fail “Here is the whole case it a nut shell, and it is impregnable. unanimous position of organiz2d labor in America and Europe is, therefore, against the single gold | standard and in favor of the restora- tion of silver to its old position of standard money. “American labor now has a pro- \tective tariff. Let all republicans fight to keep the greenbacks in cir- | culation, and toc get rid of slavery to the gold men, who are trying to | drive out cf use the silver money of | the wage earners of the world.” The} } He has custome DeArmond of Missouri. terview in Reputlic. “You ask what, in my judgment, should be the course of the United States concerning Cuban affairs. In trying to answer [ must consult the} judgment, the sentiments, the pride, the patriotism, the love of liberty, the Caristian spirit of the Americen people. For Iam so old fashioned | as to believe that there is but a} | single source of power in this coun-/} try—the sovereign people. What, | then, do the people think? How do they feel? What do they ask? I| think they believe that a free gov- ernment, a government by the peo-| ple, is just and wholesome, and that | the blight of tyranny is wrong and | deadly. They have a sympathy, warm, deep, abiding, for those who! fight and suffer for liberty. They} recognize in the Spanish war of| conquest and destruction in Cuba the cruel power of the tyrant, and in the heroic efforts of the Cubans to| win their freedom the grand digplay | of a lofty spirit and holy putpose| akin to their own. | “They ask, I thisk, that those who | administer their government sball be | Americans In other words, I think |tLey see in ‘autonomy’ the tyrant’s | trap for patriots, the suckling bottle | of the puling little things whotoddle| and whimper in places where men | should ke. | “Our government, then should} change to a manly course. It should) cease its efforts at helping Spain to} foree autonomy upon the Cubans— |} veiled slavery as a eubstitute for! independence “The government should see and recognize what all the world knows —that there is war in Cuba. The Senate belligerency resolution should be passed by the House, and ap proved and acted on by the Presi dent. That slight measure of justice to the Cubans probably would insure their independence. What more should be done events will deter mine. I speak of the least that we can do without national disgrace. “As for me, I would be glad to record my vote now for the recogni- tion of the independence of Cuba. The humiliating subserviency of the administration in reference to Cuban affairs is but in keeping with its general covrse—the hand of trust and monopolist is over it all.” | which Fusion Favored. Nevada, Mo., Jan. 20 —Hon. Sam B Cook, chairman of the State Democratic Committee. was here to- day and addressed the Vernon Coun- ty Central Committee He spoke strongly in favor of fusion of all the silver forces and denounced the statement that W. J. Stone aspired to supplant W. J. Bryan. The Cen tral Committee adopted resolutions favoring W. M. Boker of this city for Committeeman for the Fif- teenth Congressional District, vice G. S. Hoss, removed to St. Louis, also resolutions strongly favoring fusion of silver forces. Not While Reed 1s Speaker. Washington, Jan. 21.—The bills to give statehocd to the Territories in the Southweest will meet their quietus at the hands of Reed’s com- mitteeom Rules. The Speaker is against the admission of silver States and tells this fact with candor. The Committee on Territories will report the bills for statehood favorably and Reed will then see to it that they are taken care of by the Committee on Rules. Delegate Ferguson of New Mexico asked Reed to withdraw his opposition to the measure, so that the republican plank in favor of statehood could be carried out. Reed's answer was frank and prompt. He said: “This question is not sectional; it is not the East against the West. It is simply gold against silver. The republicans do not want any more silver states.”’ The kill to combine Indian Terri tory with Oklahoma and admit it to) the Union as a state, will be amend-| ed so as to admit Oklaboma alone. | It will be reported and killed in the | manner indicated. | Bucklen’s Arnica Salve | The Best Salve in the world for} leuts, bruises, sores, ulcers, salt) | rheum, fever sores, tetter, chapped | | hands, chilblains, corns, and all skin | eruptions, and positively cures piles | It is guaran-| /Or no pay required. jteed to give perfect eatisfaction or money refunded.
