1t is said that $4,000 people die an
nually in the United States alone from
this disease. In some sections of the
country one death in every three is
from Consumption. This can be, and
should be avoided; our people are too
careless about an ordinary cough or
cold, and other symptoms of throat
and lung affections that lead to this
disease. You should arrest it while
it is in the germ. Two or three doses
of DR.. Bosanko's Cough and Lung Syr-
up will relieve an ordinary cough or
cold. 1t does not dry up a cough like
many preparations on the market and
leave the disease behind it. but acts
directly on the throat and bronchial
tubes, removing all the phlegm and
morbid matter that accumulates in
the throat and lungs. 1t allays all IL
ritation, and renders the voice clear
and distinct. Sold by r. S. Freeman.

In speaking of the split in the Re-
publican party in Pennsylvania the
New York Tribune says: 1.-THE Re-
publican revolt against bossism in
Pennsylvania seems TO be assuming
proportions which may well astonlsh
even its leaders. From all parts of
the State come reports that the masses
of the party are showing unexpected
sympathy with the Independent move
ment. There is good
reason for believing that the Repub-
licans of the State are profoundly STIR
red on the issues which are to control
their course in the coming campaign,
To an outsider, viewing the situation
at distance, it looks very much as if
Pennsylvania might be about to be
visited by one of those spontaneous
and irresistible uprisings of popular
sentiment which sweep away all oppo-
sition.''

THE TARIFF.

Could the agricultural. mechanical
and laboring classes of the great
Northwest be brought to realization
of the rank injustice of the present
tariff schedule their blood would boil
with righteous indignation and they
would rise en- nasse to demand a
change IN the tariff policy of Congress
which now aims to make the rich
man richer and the poor man poorer
which seeks to compel the middle
classes to bear all unjust proportion OF
the expense of maintaining the Gov
eminent while the more wealthy are
permitted to shift upon others much
of the burden which they themselves
should carry. To illustrate the injus-
tiee of the tariff we will state that the
import duty upon diamonds and other
precious stones, popularity presumed
to be within the reach of those only
who possess ample means, is but ten
per cent, while that upon cotton
cloths, thread, hosiery, sugar, molas-
SEES, books, pamphlets, periodicals,
straw goods. dress goods, bags, bag
ging, leather and wooden and worsted
goods--accounted among the ordinary
necessaries of life for the common
peoples from twenty to forty per
n
that upon the luxury of diamonds, to
say nothing of seventy-five cents per
ton on coal for the benefit of the coal
monopoly and the excessive tariff up
on iron and steel for the exclusive
benefit of the protected monopolists
engaged in that line of industry.
Not content with the undue advan-
tages they already possess, the pro-
tectionists in Congress recently I'M
dertook another little scheme to fleece
the people, and though securing near
ly two votes for to one against they
were frustrated in their attempt only
by the two-t thirds rule. In the House
of Representative a motion was made
to suspend the rules and pass bill to
increase the tariff ON wooden hosiery,
knit goods, shirts. drawers, etc., from
thirty-five per cent, the present tar
iff, to eighty.fue per cent. The num-
Der of Representatives voting for this
outrageous proposition to more than
double the high tax on this essential
class of clothing was 1856, and we re-
gret to see among those voting there
for the names of every Representative
from Wisconsin except Bragg and Ha-
zelton.
While the treasury is SO full of mon
ey that it's Secretary is redeeming
bonds at the rate of $4,000. 900 per
month the want of increased revenue
is hardly sufficient to justify an at
tempt to impose a tax of eighty-five
cents upon every dollars worth of
wooden hosiery and knit goods used
by the people. 1t is becoming quite
generally conceded that for reckless
ness as we'll as extravaganza the 47th
Congress s'takes the cake.
