Piles are frequently preceded by sense
of weight in the back, loins and lower part

suppose he has some affection of the kid

symptoms of indigestion are present, hatu-

moisture like perspiration, producing
very disagreeable itching, after getting
warm, is a common attendant. Blind,

was promoted to the rank Of Major, and mus
tered out as such in October, 1865.
Ms. Morrill, was born at Westbrook. Me-, in
1884, and went to Kansas in the stirring days
of its territorial existence. He was elected to
the Legislature of the Territory in 1857, and
after the war continued active in the politics
Of the State. He was elected Clerk Of the District
Court in Brown County in 1566 and 1868, and
Clerk of the County in 1867, 1869 and 1871. In
1872 he was elected a State Senator, and re-
elected in 1879. He was chosen as Repre-
sentative TO the 45th Congress, and reelected
to the 49th.
Mr.. Morrill, is banker by profession, and

Of sentiment years ago. We had fight over

ties" Of the Declaration Of Independence at the

the Madagascar and Tonquin expeditions.
Germany viii raise the tax on salt and sugar
to get money to build new line of forts,
and provide them with Krupp cannon, and
so on.
By doubling the tax on whisky, beer and
tobacco at any time, we could get enough to
put our sea coast in tolerably complete
state of defense, and this, too, without the
slightest arrangement of the general bust
ness Of the country.
Still another weighty reason against the
abolition of the internal revenue system is
that the inauguration Of such system in any
country is always attended by an incalcula-
bic amount of arrangement of business, Bit
terness against the authorities that carry the
plan into execution, and fraud on the part OF
those who are taxed and corruption among
public officials. Every reader Of THE Ma
TIoNAL TRIBUNE viii remember something
Of the untold evils through which we passed
in bringing our internal revenue system to
its present admirable condition.
The corruption began in the Congress
which passed :he first law levying taxes on
malt and distilled liquors and tobacco; il in
fected even public officials connected with
carrying ont the law; countless fair repu-
tations were blasted by it; men of standing
were sent TO the penitentiary, and for years
a sort Of guerrilla warfare was carried on il
the Southern States with those who resisted
the execution of the laws.
Our experience was scarcely different from
that of England when she introduced excise
duties.
1t is as certain as any human matter car
be that we will need the internal revenue
system for some extraordinary purpose il
the next few years. Therefore it would b
supreme nonsense to abolish it now, wheI
we have perfected it at such cost, and ther
20 through the weary process again before
they who are now youths are old men.
The internal revenue system has beer
maintained so far to pay the bondholder
their dues. Why not maintain it little
longer, and pay the soldiers theirs?

SOME Of the gentry whose representative
nerves are always startled by any allusion
to the services Of loyal men, but who can
hear JEFF Davis rant treason without the
slightest mental discomposure, have been
greatly stirred up by an eloquent speech
made in Detroit by the Rev. Father Reilly.
There is the customary talk of bloody shirt
and stirring up sectional strife and all this,
but the fact is sufficient that Father Reillyis
speech receives the hearty commentator Of
all the comrades in Detroit, very mary Of
whom have written strong letters to the
press, approving his manly words.
