To Assist Nature

In restoring diseased or wasted tissue is
all that any medicine can do. In pull
monary affections, such as Colds, Bron-
chtis, and Consumption, the mucous
membrane first becomes intlamed, then
accumulations form in the aircclls OF
the lungs, followed by tubercles, and,
finally, destruction OF the tissue. 1t is
plain, therefore, that, until the hacking
cough is relieved, the bronchial tubes
can have no opportunity to heal.

Ma. BLArNE's letter. from over
the water, declining to be > candi-
date for the Presidency before the
next National Republican COnveff
ton, has caused widespread con-
sternalion in the Republican camp,
and is a tacit admission of Presi
dent Cleveland's strength in the
next Presidential campaign.
Leading Republicans Of New
York say: ''unless the republicans
put him at the head Of their ticket
this fall Cleveland is sure to be
elected. This feeling prevails among
most Of the republicans in this city.
Persons who take BIain's declina-
ton in earnest are made more de-
termined than ever to insist on his
nomination, and persons who read
between the lines of the letter say
with glee. "Well, that is a smart
move, and it means that the he pro-
poses to go into the fight with his
plume erect against Cleveland's
tariff reform policy" Scarcely q
republican in New York will accept
Blaine's ostensible withdrawal from
the canvas as final. They each in
sist that he is the only republican
whose name will be potent with the
electors in the campaign of 1888,
and they refuse to believe that he is
sincere in Withdrawing from the i'm
pending contest. Enthusiasts will
adopt his letter as their platform,
and mugwumps will regard it as a
warning that Blaineism is to be
''boomed" to an extent hitherto un-
thought of. The cold. practical
leaders of the Assembly districts
meanwhile will go ahead aud lay
pipes to elect Blaine delegates to
the next national republican con-
vention."

The Baltimore american makes
the following earnest and sympa-
thetic appeal in behalf of the ex-
confederate soldiers, for the passage
of the bill now before the Legisla-
ture asking the State to turn over
the old Pikesville Arsenal and
grounds for a home for disabled ex-
confederates. The american says:
"There are in the State Of Mary
land many men, now no longer
young, who after exhibiting great
bravery and devotion on the Con-
federate side during the war, are
now destitute and need assistance
for the remainder of their days.
They fought for the course they
thought right. We cannot, any OF
us; forget that they were courageous
men and now fellow.mortals, who
appeal to our affections and sympa-
thies, not as partisans, bat as hu-
manitarians. They are sons OF
MARYLAND who have failed in war
and peace, but none the less our
brethren. The prosperous ex Con-
federates of this city and common.
wealth have periodically done what
was in their power to help these old
soldiers, but the task is beyond
their means
cit is asked that the legislature
turn over for the use of these ex-
Confederate soldiers the old Pixies
vile Arsenal and the grounds ap-
pertaining to it. This property Is
going to decay. 1t is of no special
use to the state. 1t could be very

Confederates, who might manage to
help themselves to q considerable
degree. No Union soldier need OBJ
iect to it, and none, we think, will
do so. The men in gray who
fought them, years ago, have Jared
badly in many cases. poverty meet
ing them on one hand, and defeat
on the other. Even the Democra-
tic politicians have turned them
down. Nobody has been kinder to
the old Confederate soldiers than
the soldiers of the Union, and all
appeals to the heart of the Grand
Army of the Republic never fails to
meet a ready and substantial re-
Spouse.
ssIt would be, in our opinion, a
wholesome thing for the legislature
to pass favorably upon the bill con-
veying the Pikesville Arsenal prop
erty to trustees for the benefit of
disabled ex-Confedsrate soldiers and
sailors. In very few years
these men will have passed to the
silent majority. and then the state
can do what it thinks fit with the

from sprouting. 1t is better for them to
freeze than to keep them too warm. Freez-

as near the freezing point as possible. II
