THE TANNER EPISODE:

why 1t Has Raised Mr.. Harrison In the
Estimation Of the Veterans.
Our esteemed Democratic contem-
poraries seem to be very much ag-
grieved that tho retirement of Com
missioner Tanner has neither aroused
the hostility of the G. A. r. nor created
any appreciable new difficulty for the
Administration. On the other hand,
the manner in which the retirement
was effected has shown the intelligent
readers of newspapers the spirit in
which the President has acted, the
courage with which he met a very
serious and embarrassing situation,
and the consistency with which he
has sought to impart to the conduct of
the Pension Bureau both iberality
and sound business methods Since he
was inaugurated no difficulty so
grave, no case so delicate, no emer-
gency so critical has been presented to
him. Out OF this trial he has come
not only unscathed, but triumphant.
As an old soldier who had always
taken the deepest interest in the well
fare of his comrades of the Union
army he wanted to signalize his de-
votion to their interests by the ap-
pointment of the popular Corporal"
who had distinguished himself by his
championship of the cause of the vet
Grams. When he found that the new
commissioner lacked some essential
qualifications and got into serious an
tagonism with Secretary Noble. a
Union soldier. equally devoted to the
rights and welfare of his old COM
rades, and a careful and con.
sentative administrator. the stu.
alton required the action that fol-
lowed and that was inevitable. And
no class of men have been so well
trained to take the side of superior
judgment and authority in such case
as the old soldiers. who, besides, have
the sense to see that il is for their in
terest that liberal pension policy
should not be endangered by lack Of
judgment and by lmprudent utter.
ances on the part of the commissioner
in charge.
Hence the obvious failure of the
Democratic and Mugwump predic-
tions Of Republican disasters growing
out of the Tanner episode. President
Harrison has won new honors and has
lost no strength with the G. A. R On
the contrary, he stands higher than
before with that great organization

several months studying the condi-

working-men in the United States.
They find that wages in this country

THAT COLOR LINE.

Senator Barbour's Confession Throws
Some Light on Southern Affairs
The Democrats will not thank
Senator Barbour, of Virginia, for his
recent observations on the race issue
in the South. He so presents the
matter as to invite easy contradiction.
In his zeal for the cause of white
supremacy he practically confesses
that the colored vote is nothing II not
Republican. and that it is system
atieally suppressed on that account
''The negroes prefer to combine their
entire strength at the polls" he says,
''and to cast their solid vote against
the great majority of whites'-that
is, against the Democratic party. "In
this way, the color line is distinctly
drawn by the minority element" he
goes on to declare. land, of course,
the white people must meet it or sur
render to the domination of the
negroes and their allies"-the term
''allies'' meaning those Of the whites
who choose to vote the Republican
ticket. There is certainly nothing in
the constitution or laws which for
bids the negroes to cast a solid vote;
but, according to Mr.. Barbour, when
they attempt to do SO, the whites
have right to combine, not for the
purpose of outvoting them, but to
prevent them from voting at all At
any rate, that is the result and he
justifies it.
There are many localities in the
South lin Senator Barbour's own State
where the negroes have the major
ity, but they do not carry any cleo
tions. II they are in the habit, as he
says, Of votin z as a unit how does it
come that they and their allies never
elect their candidates? Apparently.
they draw the color line only to be de-
feated when they have the elements Of
certain success In their hands. This
would be ridiculous il it were not for
the gravity Of the true explanation.
Senator Barbour knows very we'll that
this majority vote is in fact a blank so
far as definite influence is concerned.
The negro voters as a class do not
count for any more than so many
sheep, as against the Democratic
whites. Their numerical superiority
in given places is a mere mockery.
Where fraud is not equal to the task Of
suppression, violence is adopted, and
sh0tguns adjust the matter. In no In
stance have the negroes ever under
taken to establish the rule OF their
own race. They are disposed a. .

ways. Given an education and position in
refined society, and he might have been an
ornament to it, but as it was he would prob
ably remain rough diamond for life.
The young minister kept on his way after
the departure of the lumbermen, preaching
to the remainder, making earnest efforts to
help them, and raise both souls and bodies
to a higher level. Many Of them had been
well educated and trained by careful
parents, but in coming away from civiliza
ton and its restraining influences they had
left their characters behind them and en-.
tered into the rough life Of the lumber camp
as if to the manner born, and Mr.. Esmond
saw with unspeakable regret men who were
capable of better things going Oh the tide
of profanity and wild dissipation and leav.
ing their better nature uncultivated.
There were but few women in the camp
and these were not of a class to elevate OF
soften their associates, with one exception
and that was the minister's wife. gentle
Mary Esmond, and she strove in every way
to uplift and bring to her own level those
poor souls who were so miserably drifting
into coarseness and sin.
Mr.. Esmond did not preach q harsh
gospel, and carried out to the letter Paul's
idea and became all things to all men, hop
ing that by those means he might be able
to reach some, and his gentle wife supple
mented his preaching with her 81 mpathy
and influence.
Sometimes he was almost dishearteneG
and felt that he was spending his time an6
talent for naught, but it was rarely that III
fell into Responding mood that something
did not occur to show him that however
slow the seed that he was sowing might
be to terminate, that it was still there, the
germ unimpaired and ready to spring forth
into living activity under favorable circum-
stances.
When he looked back and reviewed the
field, he could see that there had really
been much accomplished. There had been
practically no Sabbath before he came, now
nearly every man made toilet, more

the fighting and noisy carOusal on that day
was senslDly diminished, andin other ways,
more indeed than he knew, his influence
was felt for the better.
Just the present time, some two months
after the departure Of the gulch party, there
was deeper interest, an increasing atten-
ton to the words of the young preacher
which was very encouraging to him in

NASAL HEADACHES.

Some of Their Causes and Remedies.
Headaches are caused by morbid condi-
tions more commonly elsewhere than in the
brain. Permanent relief is to be obtained
in such cases not by application to the head
or by the use of drugs that blunt the sense
of pain, but by removal of the cause.
Says Doctor Roe, of Rochester, N. Y, to
whom we are indebted in the preparation OF
this article: "There is no affection that has
so many different types, nor one which is
caused by 80 great variety Of bodily con-
ditions." According to Doctor Day, Of En-
gland, there is none which more severely
taxes the experience of the physician.
It is only recently that q knowledge of
the abundant nervous connection Of the
nose with the other parts of the system,
and the nearness Of its chambers to the
brain, led the medical profession to suspect
the nasal origin Of many headaches.
This origin Is generally in some abnormal
pressure on the nerve filaments in the
nasal chambers, in consequence Of con-
gestion Of their walls, or o morbid growth
of bone, or a DETECTION, or bend of the ma
sal partition.
When it results from an engagement of
the passages simple puncture will gen.
orally relieve the headache. A pressure
from abnormal bony growth causes more
constant pain. DR.. Roe adduces many cases
Of headaches from this source which have
readily yielded to treatment. We have
room for only three, and these we give only
in meager outline.
Mr.. A. x, fifty years old, had had
headache, increasing in severity, for four
teen years. Tho pain had become so per-
sistent, and his mind was 50 affected, that
he feared softening of the brain. Examina-
ton showed pressure from an abnormal
bony ridge. An operation Immediately re-
lieved the headache and restored him to full
health.
Mr.. E. R had for year and half
suffered somewhat similarly. and was
forced to give up work. In his case, also,
there was pressure caused by bony ridge
and marked hypertrophy Of the turbinated
bones. His whole condition was much re-
duced. An operation quite relieved the
pain, and rapidly improved his condition.
He has had no trouble since
Mrs. j. K-had had frequent and Sc
we're headaches for four years, and hay
fever every summer. She had ringing in
the ears also, and became unable to use her
eyes to read or sew. The cause was hyper
trophy of the turbinated bones. An opera
ton removed all her trouble, and restored
her general health, which had become Sc
riously affected. For the last five years
she has had no return Of the headache or
of the hay-fever.-Youth's Companion.
