The modes of deaths approach
are various, and statistics show con-
clusively that more persons die
from diseases of the Throat and
Lungs than any other. 1t is prob
able that everyone, without excep-
ton, receives vast numbers of Tu-
bercle Germs into the system and
where these germs fall upon suita
BILE soil they start into life and de-
velop, at first slowly and is shown
by a slight tickling sensation in the
throat and if allowed to continue
their ravages they extend to the
lungs, producing Consumption and
to the head, causing Catarrh. Now
all this is dangerous and if allowed
to proceed will in time cause death.
AT the onset you must act with
promptness allowing cold to go
without attention is dangerous and
may lose you your life. AS soon as
you feel that something is wrong
with your Throat, Lungs or Nos
trils, obtain a bottle of Boschee's

EUFak ker Backs Out.

Governor Foraker two years ago rec,
ommended the passage OF laws taking
away certain features of local self gov
ernment in the larger cities Of the
State, and it was done. Governor
Foraker appointed the men who took
from the people their right to control
themselves, while today, in his latest
message can be found this recommen.
dation: THE Mayor of each city
should have the power to fill all its
offices that are held by appointment.
A change to this effect sneuld be made
in the laws providing for the different
municipal boards which are VOW ap-
pointed by the Governor. The old
adage, Better late than never" will
hold good in Governor Foraker's Case
Governor Foraker recomm ended
measures within the past two years
and lobbied them through the Iegisla-
ture, taking the most sacred right, that
of local self government, away from
the people, while today he is recon-
mending that the rights thus taken
shall be restored. When the people
get SO that they are unable to manage
their own affairs it will be time to
have q guardian appointed to act in
their stead. Evidently the Governor
found that he had been treading on
dangerous ground, and to make re-
spectacle retreat he added the above
to his message. The Governors rec.
ommendatiOn is severe blow to the
ring of this city, who had measures
drawn up for the purpose of ripping
this city from stem to stsrn.-[ Plain

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND in his mes
sage indicates the method of relief
from the Trusts which operate SO
Srindingly upon the purchaser and
consumer:
1t is notorious that competition is
too often strangled by combinations
quite prevalent at this time, and fire.
ouently called trusts, which have for
their object the regulation of the sup
ply and price of commodities made and
sold by members of the combination.
The people can hardly hope for any
consideration in the operation OF these
selfish schemers. The necessity OF
combination to maintain the price of.
any commodity to the tariff point
furnishes proof that some one is will
ling to accept lower prices for such
commodity. and that such prices are
remunerstlve; and lower prices pro-
duced by competition prove the same
thing. Thus, where either of these
conditions exist, case would seem to
be presented for an easy reduction Of
taxation,

FULLER details of the destruction of
life in China caused by the overflow of

According to the best and most trust

thousands, while the starving people
must amount to millions, who are ut

there being a very large number OF
military and civic organizations in
attendance. 1t is estimated that fully
%, 900 visitors witnessed this exhibit
ton of Republican simplicity in the
management of State and municipal
affairs and expenditures. Those eight
naughty Senators, whose names are
enclosed in sable lines by the organs
of the "grand old party" were re-
minded by banner borne conspicu-
ously in the parade, on which was
