Two Bottles Cure rheumatism.

ROUGHTON, ARK, June /, 1857.
L cheerfully state the following facts in regard
to the use of your medicine in my family. My

How Men Die.

If we know all the methods of approach adopted
by an enemy we are the better enabled to ward
Off the danger and postpone the moment when
surrender becomes inevitable. In many instances
the inherent strength of the body suffices to
enable it to oppose the tendency toward death.
Many, however, have lost these forces to such an
extent that there is little OF no help. In other
cases a little aid to the weakened lungs will make
all the difference between sudden death and
many years of useful life. Upon the first symp-
toms of Cough, Cold, or any trouble of the
Throat or Lungs, give that old and well-l1nown
remedy -Boschee's German Syrup-a careful trial,
1t will prove, what thousands say of it, to be the
"benefactor of any home"

THE FuNpAMENTAL LAW.

The decision of the Illinois Supreme
Court, in the case of the Chicago Gas Trust,
adds another to the frequent judicial dec
larations against the legality of corpora
tions or combinations devised to engross or
monopolize any branch of business. In this
case the Gas Trust was a regularly incorpo-
rated concern which served the usual pur-
pose of combining all the gas companies
under a single control.
With regard to such a combination it is
nothing new, but it is none the less refresh
ing, to read the assertions of the court that a
corporation organized for such purpose
twas not organized for lawful purpose,
and all acts done by it toward the accom-
plishment of such object are illegal and
void. Whatever tends to prevent competi-
tion between those engaged in a public en-
plovment or business, impressed with pub
lie character, is opposed to public policy
and therefore unlawful. Whatever tends to
create monopoly is unlawful, being con-
trary to public policy"
This is the law, as it has formed the foun-
dation of our Government for generations.
1t is to be hoped that the men who manage
our corporations will in time learn their
duty to respect the law.

AN HONOR WELL DESERVED.

Among the many festivities of the day,
there will be none of truer significance OF
representing more worthy sentiments than
the dedication of the monument which has
been erected by the united efforts of the
labor organizations of the city, to the
memory of Thomas A. Armstrong.
Indeed the whole community might be
included in the demonstration, in the sense
that every true American is workingman.
While Mr.. Armstrong; journalistic career
was marked by his true and intelligent
advocacy of labor interests, he was labor
advocate on the broad ground that the
interests of the working people are the
interests OF the whole people. His unswerv-
ing work for the advancement of organ
lied labor was never marred by appeals to
special and selfish interests. His conserv-
atism, and his intelligent counsels for
moderation enhanced his value as a wise
counsellor and far-sighted advocate of the
labor cause.
Honors to the memory of such man are
honorable no less to the laboring masses by
whom they are paid. The workers of Pitts
burg prove to-day that they are not un-
grateful to the memory of their steadfast
advocate and friend.

THE RANK PROSECUTIONS.

That the policy of silence and the delay in
making an official statement does not suit
the depositors of the Lawrence Bank may be
inferred from the prosecutions begun yester-
day against the President and Cashier. 1t
is not extraordinary that the people who
had their money in the institution should be
anxious to know as soon as possible how
much they might expect from it. That was
a very reasonable feeling. Now, if delay
was inevitable in preparing the statement,
would it have been too much to make a
formal announcement giving the reasons
and telling when the desired information
would be forthcoming?
Taking the sequence of events up to date
it is clear that the business has been handled
with as little success and tact since the sus-
pension as before. What must particularly
impress this view upon the public is the re-
iterated unofficial assurances from directors
and other officers of the bank and parties in
interest that dollar for dollar, or some
thing like it, will be paid the depositors
How gratifying even a general averment of
this would have been if issued over the sig
Ol Iue DOdTO Vi OlE6CJOESs Let, IL
the assurance really exists that the situation
is no worse. it would have required but q
few words officially from the bank directors
and officers to allay the suspense and grow
ing irritation of depositors until a specific
statement could be made
Provided the banks affairs are in as good
shape rs has been constantly claimed, it can
only be said that the manner OF suspension
and the incidents since have been singularly
distinguished by want of tact and foresight.
The depositors started In with the kindliest
and most generous expressions of continued
confidence, even in the face of the suspen-
sion. That some of them are pretty mad
now, and with reason, is sufficiently evil
denced in the litigation which is already
started, not to speak of what is threatened.
What the outcome will be is not clear, but
it is apparent that the courts are about to
have their innings.

FnR sALF-A THRONE

The throne of Hawaii is for sale, upset
price one million dollars. King Kalakaua
has good reasons for selling, which he will
readily state to intending purchasers. The
throne is in good repair, and an energetic
man will find no difficulty in collecting the
revenues The native population is being
rapidly civilized out of existence. The ma
tiEes are well educated, and imported dis
eases may be relied upon to keep them in
check. On the other hand, the mixed races,
compounded of Chinese, Europeans and
Hawaiians, are rapidly increasing, and
afford support to several newspapers and
other luxuries, without which an American
would be i'll content to occupy even a
throne. Life in Hawaii is quiet as rule;
the local volcanos affording the principal
diversion. The language is peculiarly at
tractive to stump speakers, as it abounds in
vowels, and the fact that it contains no verb
whatever to express either being, existence,
possession or duty. ought not to prove en-
barrassing to intending purchasers of a
throne, as King need not acknowledge the
existence of anybody but himself, has
possession of all he needs, and knows no
duty but that of his subjects to pay taxes.
This is an excellent opportunity for title
loving Americans to get crown dirt cheap.

THANKSGIVING JUSTIFIED.

The skies are weeping, but We may smile;
there is a good deal of water under foot, but
there are great many homes in this eoun-
ty which to-day glow with CHEEKY warmth,
and the slaughter of the turkeys has been
great. If prosperity, contentment and
peace were to be manifested for the nonce in
flame, tonight vonld see wondrous blaze
of light over all the United States. In
Pittsburg there would be veritable con-
fagration beside which the glare of ten
thousand mighty wells of natural gas would
be no more than a rushlight. And the
blessed part of all this is that the prosperity
is general, the happiness is difused, and
nobody is forced to put up with the picked
bones of the turkey. There is enough white
meat to GO around.
An author of wondrous wisdom once
labored long and heavily upon book. On
the last page of manuscript he sent to the
printers he wrote in place of the word .fniS:
''Thank Heaven, the book is donei" The
printers probably echoed the words with
earnestness for the great author wrote a
diabolicalscrawL Some THANKSGIVING have
been like the great authors. We have
thanked Heaven that the work of a year
was done; that we still lived, and had
little hope left in the larder. But there is
no reason for halfheartedness in our thanks
giving to-day. There have been black
pages in the book we now close. Not yet
has the shadow of the dread calamity at
JOhnstown altogether passed away. As
nation. as parts of great community, and
as individuals we have had our Affections
as well as our joys. But who shall weigh
the one with the other and say that the bless
ings do not tip the beam?
The DISPATCH hopes that everyone of
its readers will have the cut of the turkey
his or her heart desires; that gaunt indiges-
tion will hold aloof, and that Pittsburg will
continue her unrivaled march in prosperity
and peace for years and years to come.

OVERHEAD WIRES MUST GO.

Cleveland has become excited by the
demonstration on her streets that the over
head elecTric wire can kill a horse. Our
neighboring city is possessed of several cleo
trical experts who are able to demonstrate
to their own satisfaction that the wires are
perfectly safe; but somehow the Cleveland
people tail to be satisfied by this demonstra-
tion, and are proceeding to deal with the mat
ter by the very summary method of chop
ping down the poles and wires. A rather
singular feature of this radical reform is that
the telephone poles and wires which are
harmless unless charged with the strong
currents by the electric light or electric
railway wires, are suffering the most; while
the responsibility really lies with the over
head electric railway wires. Still the fact
that Cleveland is doing something to pro-
tect life on her streets marks the vital differ
enee between her course and that of Pitts
burg

THEORY AND PRACTICE.

The report comes from Brazil that the
leaders of the new Republic have announced
their intention of forming the Government
on the model of the United States. There
could hardly be better pattern for a new
Republic to organize itself bv. The prin-
ciple of home rule for the different States,
with specific powers granted to the General
Government and the fundamental rule that
all the powers of government must be exer-
cised for the benefit of the whole people and
by their consent, furnish the best foundation
for republican government
It may certainly be hoped that the Bra
zilisns will adopt this model for their new
Government and adhere to it faithfully. It
is also to be hoped that they will profit by
the example of the United States in avoid
ing the mistake of adopting the principles
of our Constitution in the abstract, and
nullifying some of the most i'm
portant in actual practice. For in
stance, having adopted a Constitution
which makes it the duty of the representa-
tive bodies TO consider and pass legislation
and of the executive to appoint officers to
carry out the laws, it is to be hoped that
Brazil will not permit system of politics
to grow up in which the legislators claim
the executive power of appointment and
neglect their legislative duties in order to
attend to it. Or having founded their Gov
ernment on the principle that all its powers
must be exerted for the benefit of the peo-
pie, the Brazilians should avoid the creation
by legislative powers of corporate powers
which possess special privileges in the &C.
QUESTION of wealth, and concentrate great
fortunes in the hands of few at the cost of
the many.
These are few of the many examples
which show the necessity of adhering to the
principles of the Constitution in practice as
we'll as in theory. Since we learn that other
countries are looking to us as model, might
it not be well for the people of the United
States to insist on the faithful observance of
the theory of the Constitution in our actual
political practice.
