being drunk when he spoke at Corder.
We are assured that there is not even
a shadow of truth in the charge. Mr..

Some time ago the Post said:-s'Our
iconoclastic friend of the Intelligencer
is so eager to destroy the laws under
which the surplus is being piled up,
why does he not fall in with Sam Ran
dalls plan to remove the excise tax off
whisky and tobacco? This is the tax that
the people feel more keenly than any
other; this is the tax that takes money
out of the pockets where it is needed"
We don't fall in with that plan because
we don't believe in it. We think the
sta ment, that the people feel the tax
on Risky and tobacco the most, to be
alb rrd. They can do without these
the7 cannot do without blankets,
fla rels, hats, shoes, and other things
for +" cir families upon which they are
taxed 40 per cent. or more. The Post
is welcome to its position of cheap
whisky and dear blankets. We are
rather for a high tax on whisky and
cheap blankets, fiannels and clothing
for the poor.

led the democratic speakers there to

Cure for Piles.

Piles are frequently preceded by a sense of
weight in the back, loins and lower part of
the abdomen. causing the patient to
suppose he has some affection of the
kidneys or n%eighboring organs. At
times, symptoms OF indigestion are present,
fiatulency. uneaslness of the stomach, etc. A
moisture. like per5piralion, producing a very
disagreeable itching, after getting warm, is u
common attendant. Blind, bleeding and
itching piles Weld at once to the application
of DR.. Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which acts
directly upon the parts affected, absorbing
the tumOrs. allaying the intense itching, and
e~ffecting a permanent cure. Price 30 cents.

The cabinet officers have all returned
from their vacations, and are now
hard at work upon their annual reports.
The first full cabinet meeting since the
summer HOLIDAYS began was held on
Thursday last. The supreme court of
the United States convened on Mon
dav, after a long summer vacation.
The number of cases upon the calendar
at the opening of the session was llo3'
Little business was transacted beyond
the admission to the bar of a number
of candidates who presented them
selves from various parts OF the coun-
try, after which the court adjourned
for week i'll order to permit its menu
bers to accompany the remains OF the
late Chief Justice Chase, to Cincinnati,
on Wednesday. Since Secretary Whit
ney's return to Washington he has been
interviewed by representatives of near
" all of the principal ship-building
companies, with reference to the con-
struction of the proposed new cruisers.
In fact his time has been so completely
monopolizcd by the shipbullders that
he has had little time at his disposal to
devote TO other matters.
Post Dispatch:-''Mr. Hewitt is right
i'm declaring that our present tariff is
depressing and pa~ralyzing many of the
home manufactures, which its uphold
ers pretend that it favOrs and protects.
The last report of the bureau of statis-
tics, reckoning our population at 49,
400 900, shows that Jul government
collected last year a net revenue of
1886, 43O, 1927, which is So IS for every
man, woman and child, beside the ex-
pense of collecting the same. This
takes SAG a year out of the earnings of
every workingman with a family of
eight persons to support. But beside
what is thus transferred from his pOck-
cts to the treasury, the present tariff
forces him to pay an indirect and i'll
visible but larger tax to protected
monopolists on what his family COM
sumes. To make the matter worse,
the government is collecting 1874, O0O,-
GOO a year more than it eXpends, and
this is lying idle i'll the treasury while
we are paying 81, S20 900 a year of in
terest Oh that amount of redeemable
bonds. The people will not patiently
brook any further t%rifing with such a
situation by either party"
