Proprietary Medicines no doubt has largely
benefited the consumers MS we'll MS r%clicy-
ing the burden of home manufacturers.
Especially is this the case with gram =
august Fiolcer and Boschec's German
Syrup, as the reduction of thirty.six cents
per dozen has been added to increase the
size of the bottles containing these rene.
dies, thereby giving one fifth more medi-
cine in the 70 cent size. The 1ugus,

Reversing the Arithmetic.

It seems to be impossible for the Phila-
delphia Press to tell the truth, even when
. comparison of the different pages of its
own issue exposes its falsehood. 1t might
be presumed that newspaper of its pre-
tensions would at least try to make its
expressions consist for one day. But it
plunges along as reckleSsly as if all the
rules Of arithmetic were as obsolete as the
ninth commandment is in its code of
morals.
For instance, on what may be called by
courtesy its editorial page to-day, it de-
clares that " there are nearly fifty thousand
post0ffices in the United States. The pro-
portion of changes in Pennsylvania doubt
less fairly represents the ratio throughout
the country, and this record means that the
administration has within sixteen months
made nearly fifteen thousand removals,
and has placed twenty-five offices in the
hands of Democratic adherents. The same
rate will grab them all within another
year"
And in the same issue, on its news
page, it is shown that instead of
there being "nearly" fifty thousand
post9iEGes in the United States, there are
in fact 5S,6l4; instead of the administra-
ton making "nearly $1,000 removals.
within sixteen months, it made only 9,ll2
during the past year, and the same proper
tion for the four previous months-which
did not prevail-would make the Press out
Q falsiHer by at least 25 per cent. instead
Of sslgrabbing" the offices for Democratic
adherents, more changes were made by
deaths and designations, not influenced by
the administration, than by removals and
suspensions.

masters in the country the administration
has as yet removed only 1906, or little over
sixth of the whole number, during the
first year. We trust We will soon have the
pleasure of recording that every last rascal
has been turned out. Some of them, how.
ever, will find fit employment in helping to

Our New Mexican War.

An American editor of a Mexican paper
wished to abuse a rival Mexican editor {;
whether justly or not does not matter. The
American editor prudently adjourn ned to
American soil, and there proceeded with
his abuse. He then imprudently returned
to Mexican soil and was arrested of course
without reason. Why should a Mexican
give reason; the climate is too warm.
The American editor complained to the
American consul, who advised him to re-
fuse bail, and he bumptiously informed the
fer0ci0us Mexican officials that he had
nothing to cay to them, as his case was
now in the hands of his government.
That government demanded his release,
and when the Mexican government has
secured itself against the revolution which
that release might provoke the command
of our government will no doubt be needed
WhOop!
Now let us pause and reflect This Incl
dent is only one of many, and few of taem
have ended creditably to us. The brig
ands who pass for Mexican regulars mur-
dered Captain Crawford in cold blood and
sANo>A w Ahuiuoi Iio companion MOSS.
Moss succeeded in having himself cap
tured and then traded himself for four
mules, having previously been compelled
to sign document exonerating his can
tors.
The Mexican " regulars " are, in reality
convicts, whose barracks is essentially iai
and whose officers are keepers, who do moi
hesitate to have their charges shot down OF
the least provocation. Recently an Ameri
# fofiicer observed a company of Mexican.
rch down TO a river bank for battle
alf of them were drawn upon the riyel
ank to watch the other half with loaded
lies, lest they should attempt TO escape
and then the watchers took their turn unde,
mmilar surveillance.
And yet, on the Mexican border, tn,
civil power is subservient TO the military

sumes entire control of the place and rule

this warmth of eulogy:

A Democratic Finger Board.

The Philadelphia Record, which is the
most consistent and effective advocate of
tariff reform in the country, if not always
the fairest, gives good advice to the De-
mocracy, for whose best interest it has not
always the highest regard, when it says:
On the two leading issues of state policy,
the unjust Determinations of the carrying
com panies and the liquor question, the COM
ing Democratic state convention OF Pennsyl.
vania should speak with no uncertain sound.
Questions of tariff, finance, currency and
civil service reform, though of the highest
importance, do not strictly enter into the
state campaign, as the election of governor
and legislature can contribute little or moth
ing toward their solution. Those issues OF
national politics logically belong to the elec.
tions OF members of Congress, and should
not be confounded with questions of state
policy.
We are not sure that the RCc0n is not
nearly right. too, when it recommends the
Democracy to simply adopt the "Hulings
resolution which was rejected by the
Republican convention, and which affirmed
the duty of the legislature to enforce by APP
propriate legislation the XVI and NNlI
articles of the constitution of Pennsylva-
mia. With more or less elaboration the
Democrats have done this year after year
and they will not of course take any back
track now, when by clear comparison with
the Republican omission their declaration
will be SO forcible. But the Record is still
more emphatically right when it points the
Democratic duty of making "choice of a
candidate for governor who is known to
be in hearty accord with their ' Jews on this
issue, which SO deeply affects the rights
and interests of the people of Pennsyl.
vania."
The Democracy will not, it is to be
hoped, follow the cowardly, dodgng course
of the Republicans on the Prohibition
question. The Record forcefully says - il
Prohibition be wrong, invasive of rights o
person and of property, and mischie YOU.
