The Presidential campaign of '88 will be memorable for gorgeous pa rade uniforms. The most money will bs spent for banners and transparent cies. The number of banners now being made is enormous, and so far in- adequate to the demand, many of them costing S20O apiece. Those bear ing the pictures of the candidates, ar tistically painted, are of tke highest value. Most conspicuous among the novelties that will appear in street parades will be miniatures of the old log cabin, barrels of hard cider, and caged coons. The torches will be no inconsiderable item in the bill ofcosts. There are many novel designs in the flaming lights; the fambeau, of an cient pattern, being the most pOpu- lar with clubs that are fitted out re- gardless of expense, and are so con- structed that at a given signal the entire column will instantly burst forth in flame two feet high.

PRIVATE PENSION BELLS.

The one redeeming feature of Pres
 ldent Cleveland's administration has
 been his close scrutiny of private pen sion bills which have been put through
 both houses of Congress in such great numbers, with scarcely a pretense Of examining into thelr merits, Congress- men of both political parties being afraid te oppose this wholesale attack on the national Treasury, fearing the loss of the soldler vote. We don't be- lleve that any soldier who fought for the preservation of the Union, in eur late elvIl war, and who has one spark of manhood remaining, will counte- nance and applaud the prostitution of the pension service that Congress IS engaged in promoting.
 The President, in & recent message says;
 q can not spell out any principle upon which the bounty of the Govern ment is bestowed through the instru- mentality of the flood of private pen sion bills that reach me. The theory seems to have been adopted that no man who served in the army can be the subject of death or impaired health, except that they are chargea- ble to his service. Medical theories are set at naught, and the most start ling grelation is claimsd between al leged incidents of military service and disability or death. Fatal apoplexy is admitted as the result of quite insig- nlfcant wounds, heart disease IS at tributed to chrome diarrhea, consump- ton to hernia, and suicide is traced to army service in a wonderfully devious and curious way. Adjudications of the Pension Bureau are overruled in the most peremptory fashion by these special acts of Congress, since nearly all the benefciarias named in these bills have unnecessarily applied tc that bureau for relief.
 "The apprehension may well be en- tertained that the freedom with which these private pension bills are passed furnishes an inducement to fraud and imposition, while it certainly teaches the vicious lesson to our people that the Treasury of our National Govern ment invites the approach of private need.
 q have considered the pension list to be the republics roll of honor, bearing names inscribed by national gratitude, and not improvident and indlscriminato aims giving. I have conceived the prevention of the com plete discredit which must ensue from the unreasonable, unfair and reckless granting of pensions by special acts to be the best service I can render our veterans. In the discharge eff what has seemed to me my duty as related te legislation and Tn the interest of all the veterans of the Union army, I have attempted to stem the tide of i'm provident pension enactments, though I confess to a full share of respensi- bility for some of these laws that should not have been passed"

The proposition to submit to the States 3 constitutional amendment to prohibit the traffic in liquor in the United States, was favorably reported to the Senate on the 9th inst. The mere mention of such a proposition will be regarded as a reflection upon the crooked whisky ring which existed during Grants administration, and the conviction of fifty government off, fcials for complicity in the affair. The proposition is "tom-foolery." No one Tn his senses, not even Blair, the committeeman who favorably report ed the measure and recommended its adoption by the Senate, can seriously consider it.

We have a distinct reco llection of promised dividend to stockholders in the Tortillta silver mine, and not hearing of shipments of precious met al from that source, we are led to be- lieve that the mine was neither so fat or dazzling as represented by own CTS interested in the sale of stock. Another instance of misplaced cOnf- dsnce was in the Oak Grove group of mines in Richmond Basin, Gila coun- ty, which was stocked for $1,O00,0O0. The silence that pervades the group Is but another evidence of discarded lSPc.

Inherited Diseases.

No fact of nature is moro pregnant with awful meaning than the fact of tho inheritance of disease.
 Modern science, which has illuminated 20 many dark corners of nature. has shed new light on the Ominous words of tho Scriptures, "The sins of the fathers, shall be visited upon the children unto the third snd fourS generation.D Fifty per cent. of cuses of consumption, cancer and scrofula, run in families through inheritance. Insanity is hered. itary in e marked degree, but, fortu- nately, like many other hereditary diseases, tends to wear itself out, tho stock becoming extinct. A distin- guished scientist truly says: 'No organ or texture of the body is exempt from the chance of being the subject oG hereditary disease" Probably moro chronic diseases, which permanently modify the structure and functions of the body, gre more or les5 liable to be in- herited. The important and far-reaching practical deductions from such facts are obvious to reAecting minds, and tho best means for preventing or curing these diseases is subject of intense in- teresG to all. Fortunately nature has provided remedy, which experience has attested as infall!ble, and the rems- dy is tho world-famous Swift's Specific, Q pure vegetable compound-nature's antidote for eli blood poisous. To the sthicted 1t Is Q blessing of inestimable value. An interesting treatise on "Blood and Skin Diseases" will be mailed free by addressing

the following Is q copy:
UNITED STATES SENATE,
WASHINGTON, d. O., 1888.
DEAR sir Inoloscd send few blank
sheets, on which will be obliged IL you will
kindly mako a list, as far as convenient, Of
the names and politics Of the patrons of your
Office and forward 10 me.
Yours truly, JoHN e KEsNA.
We cannot see that this is any of
our esteemed contemporary's busi-
ness. Mr.. Kenna as chairman of the
Democratic Congressional Committee,
is in pursuit of legitimate information.
The President is certainly not re-
sponsible for il and has no jurisdiction
over it. If the Postmaster General
secs fit to instruct his postmasters not
to furnish the information desired,
that's another thing, Still, we can't
see that even the PostofIice Depart
ment should interfere. The knowl-
edge that is wanted is properly obtain
able from some source, and it makes
oparticular difference TO Civil Surface
Reform where it comes from.
