THE CAUSE OF RHEUMATISM.

It Is claimed that rheumatism Is
sometimes inherited but 1t is more like
ly that the persons presumed to inherit
1t are physically constituted the same as
their parents and naturally susceptible
toit. If children arc differently con-
stituted from the afflicted parent they
do not "inherit it." Biliousness is as
much of an inheritance as rheumatism,
as persons of Bilious temperament
are most susceptible to 1t and they Of
course get their temperament from their
parents. Other authorities claims that
rheumatism Is caused by the presence OF
uric acid in the blood. Others to
taking cold when their Is poison circu-
lating In the blood, others that 1t Is
purely and solely disease of tho ner-
vous system. 1t is we'll known that
when persons have acute or infamma'
tory rheumatism the bowels are usually
constipated and the urine scanty, but is
that not caused by the rheumatism
rather than the cause of 1t, for when
the bowels are kept open and the in.
fammation kept down, cure Is soon
produced. The Inflammation must be
kept down until the parts are restored
to a healthy condition. This Is not
theory as a great many severe cases
have been cured in that way. The In
fammation being deep seated and
mostly In the joints, 1t is difficult to
reach and but few external applications
will relieve it, there is one however
that will, and that is Chamberlain's
Pain Balm, one application is usually
sufficient to relieve the pain and only
the worst cases require more than one
or two fifty cent bottles to effect cure.
1t is the most penetrating liniment
known and promptly relieves the ago,
nizing pains both Of rheumatism and
neuralgia. When the parts can be roach.
ed and the Pain Balm applied directly to
the seat of pain, as In cases OF burns
and toothache, itrelieves instantly and
In cases of rheumatism only Q few
moments are required for its effect to
be felt. To keep the bowels open al.
ways use St. Patrick's Pills as they are
absor bed into the blood, act through 1t,
purify it and thoroughly cleanse the
whole system.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From Our Regular Correspondent. }

| WASHINGTON, MAI. 10, 1000.
Thanks to the republican obstruc
tionists, Mr.. Mills tariff bill has moi
been reported to the House. The
ime is being we'll put in however, by
the friends of the measure in mission
ary work among tn few misguided
democratic members, who worship
still at the shrine OF protection. II
is now claimed that the number ol
d emocrats pledged to support the
bill when it gets before the House
is only five short of majority, and il
is hoped that enough republicans
will vote for it to insure its passage
But not much faith can be attached
to that hope. Republicans seldom
vote for a measure that is opposed
by their leaders, no matter what their
own opinion may be-a political les,
son which the democrats have never
yet learned. However it may result,
the democrats who believe in keeping
the pledges made to the people, pro,
pose making an honest effort to re-
deem those pledges. If they fail the
cause of their failure will be apparent
to all.
The latest applicant for Blaine g
mantle is Senator Hale. of Maine.
He has been appointed chairman OF
the Senate Committee to investigate
the alleged violation Of the civil SER
vice law by the democrats. This is
expected to give him boom. 1t is
more likely to develop into a boone
rang.
Acting Secretary Thompson, of the
Treasury Department, one OF the
best and most competent officials ever
appointed by Mr.. Cleveland, has
written letter to the Secretary of
State, in reply to communication
from Hon. Ira Davenport in regard
to m alleged lack of reciprocity be-
tween the United States and Canada
in the importation of nursery pro-
ducts, such as plants, shrubs, ETC.. in
which he says that the matter is gov
erned entirely by the laws of tho re-
spective countries, our laws admitting
those articles free. while the Cana
dian tariff requires duty of twenty
per cent ad valorem on such articles.
These being the facts he does not
see how the Treasury Department
can take any action to rectify the in
justice complained Of by Mr. Daven-
port.
Senator Colquit's speech, made ear
ly this week, was strongly in favor Of
revenue reform as outlined in the
Presidents message. He said it is
time now for the distinct assertion OF
democratic principles, the hearty
maintenance OF them and the re-
demption of democratic pledges. The
reign of the opposing principles had
been long enough, and had already
gone far toward converting the coun-
try into a plutocracy. The high tar
if policy has always been that Of the
Tory party in politics, the friend Of
class legislation and principle.
Secretary FAirchild, in answer to o
request for his opinion on Senator
Shernau's bill for the investment Of
the funds for the redemption Of na-
tional bank notes, has written q long
letter to the Senate Finance commit
tee. In disapProving Of the measure
be points ont the bad results that
would probably follow its adoption

Alaskan Coal Monopoly.

Washington Telegram: Gov. Swine.
ford, OF Alaska, in a letter 10 the secre.
tary of the interior, represents that
through what he believes to hsve
been, to say the least, an absure dscis-
ion of the late judge of the U. s. court
for Alaska, private parties have Sc.
cured possession of the government
wharf al s!tka and now monopolize
the coal trade. He says vessels of the
Pacific Coast Steamship Co., refuse to
land coal for anybody but parties in
possession of the wharf end they in
consequences are extorting exorbitsnl

Grey Wolves as Herder..

A gentleman just In from the reser.
walton, says the River Press, reports
seeing several bands Of large grey
wolves, numbering all the way from
ten to twenty ina band, within the
past week or ten days. In n in
stance, he witnessed q display of cum
ming, or whatever II may be called,
that would seem to one unscquainted
with the tactics OF these rsyenous
beasts to approach human reasoning.
While riding along on sn elevation
Of ground overlooking valley upon
either side he saw in the distance a
band OF cattle that seemed to be close
herded, and moved In a circumscribed
circle. From biz point Of observation
he could see no mounted men and,
regarding the circumstances as some
what singular, he put 'spurs TO his
horse and made for the band. The
mystery was soon explained. Circling
round the frightened animals, each
following close upon the heels OF the
other, were fifteen or twenty large
grey wolves, while two Of the largest
and strongest were within the circle
making vigorous dashes upon first one
and Then another Of the imprisoned
cattle with the evident purpose OF
ham stringing one OF them. The At
rival OF the horsemen put a stop to the
proceedings and the wolves scsmpered
or TO a safe distance, where they
stopped and watched the movements
OF the intruder.

THE Chicago anarchists have organ
lied Sunday schools for the children.
A Sunday school does not necessarily
mean a place where on Sundays the
children are taught the Christian re-
ligion. The anarchists call these
meetings Sunday schools because on
sunday they will teach several hun
dred children, who are growing into
manhood aud wonauhood, TO look up
to John Most instesdiofl Jesus Christ;
10 hate capitalists rs Christians hate
the devil. and to revere Spies and
Parsons as martyrs like Saints stephen
and Peter. They are educating innc-
cent children to become dangerous cit.
liens without the fear Of God or OF q .
law, and a constant mensce to tbs
government. These children trained
in their youth to absorb the doctrines
OF anarchy will, as they grow up find
plenty Of discomfort, poverty and sor-
row In this world to feed their icono-
elastic desires upon, and they will
only recognize the beauties of q gov
