There is constant effort on the part of that

natural laws can render his efforts unavalling
Yet too often injudicious excuses, sudden

BEECHERs BAD HEAD.-For two months
in the year Henry Ward Beecher can't
preach. In August and September he
takes his vacation and endurcs the onset
of the hay fever. And it is, so he says
something terrible and tremendous. A
man with hay fever isn't accountable for
his actions. He is merely wild beast
frantic with snufflng, sneezing and head
ache. His eyes are red and so is his nose.
Every nerve in his skull thrills with dis
tress and his head is fountain of tears.
He lives only to fly from seaside to noun
tain-tOp in search of relief. And yet,
whether we call this form of Catarrh hay
fever, rose-fever, hay-cold or rose-cold,
Ely's Cream Balm will cure it This
remedy is simple, pleasant and easy of
application. Placed in the nostrils it
penetrates and soothes the affected parts
at once, restores the impaired senses and
creates healthy secretions in cases of the
longest standing You cannot ran away
from hay fever, but you can drive it from
you by using Ely's Cream Balm.

The World Becoming Overcrowded.

The World Becoming Ovcrcrowdcd.
The series of statistics and references
embodied in the startling paper on
"World-Crowding," by President Grit.
fin of the London Statistical Society,
has attracted very general attention,
which is not likely to subsde now that
it has been brought ont in book form.
The general thesis is that the time is
close at hand when the world will be
full, when the population will have so
pressed upon the means of subsistence
that a large share Of the inhabitants
will live habtually on the verge of
starvation, as the Irish do now. This
conclusion rests upon the fact that in
India population has already reached
this point, while in the whole of Eu-
rope it has become so dense as no long
er to be able to live upon the product
of the soil, but on food imported from
the United States.

examine a SOLID GOLD WATCH, that aside
from the necessary thickness for engraving

precious metaluscd is needed only to st fen

supply the necessary solidity and strength
The surplus gold is needless so far as UTILITY
and beauty are concerned. In JAMES BOSS

WASTE Of precious metal is overcome and the

of solid cases. This process is of the most
simple nature. as follows plate of nickle

the result is strip OF heavy plated compost

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, ID. c., Aug. 4, 'SS

washington, ~ ", aug =, co.
The telegraph operators strike is
canvassed and watched with more in
terest here, perhaps, than in any other
city; for while Washington is not a
great commercial center, it is great
news and political centre. Public SYM
patty here has been from the first
unanimously with the Brotherhood,
but the odds seem to be on the side of
the great monopoly whose greed and
arrogance have made it so offensive.
Puck's cartoon of the tournament be-
tween capital and labor portrays the
situation. to the shame of the Ameri-
can people be it said. The political
significance of the strike is two-fold.
First it may serve to forcibly direct the
attention of Congress to the necessity
of government control Of the telegraph.
When Jay Gould with his millions of
ill-gotten wealth can subsidize the
press-or q portion of it-and sit at
the head of concern whose prof fits
have swelled its capital to more than
ten times the original investment, and
there grind down to starvation wages
the army of .nen from whose labor
this profit is earned and when this
arrogant monopoly gobbles up every
competitor and openly boasts that it
can starve out all opposition to its
away, it is time for Congress to real
ize that the people have some rights.
This state of affairs directs attention
to the approaching triumph of the
democratic party. 1t is the natural
foe of monopoly and the steadfast
friend of the workingman. No such
state Of things as now exist could have
grown up under democratic admins
tration of the government, because the
defiant corporations would be held to
accountability and compelled to obey
the laws. The statements given out
by the Western Union company that it
is handling its business readily and
promptly and that the service is i'm
proving day by day, are absolutely
false. Its service is in state of chaos.
Dispatches are delayed abominably and
transmitted in such bad shape as to be
often misleading or useless. Its alac-
rity in spreading reports of interference
with its wires is malicious, the fact be-
ing that there is not a single authenti-
Gated case of interference by the strik-
ers, who are under strict Injunction
from the power that guides them to
avoid all such mischief, which would
only harm their cause. These mis-
representations are merely part of the
tactics of the company in its desperate
game of bluff, which is too transparent
to win. PHoNo.
