Rheumatism.

REING due to the presence of uric D acid in the blood, is most effectually cured by the use Of Ayers Sarsapa- rilia. Be sure you get Ayers and no other, and take 1t till the poisonous acid is thoroughly expelled from the system. We challenge attention to this testimony :-
 About two years ago, after suffering for nearly two years from rheumatic gout, being able to walk only with great discomfort, and having tried various remedies, including mineral waters, without relief, saw by an advertise ment in Chicago paper that man had been relieved of this distressing com plaint, after long suffering, by taking Ayers Sarsaparilla. I then decided to make trial of this medicine, and took 1t regularly for eight months, and am pleased to state that it has effected a complete cure. I have since had no re- turn of the disease.

The effort of the Harrison admin
istration to organize Republican
party in the South independent OF
the color line is not u glittering sue
cess. The resulting disregard OF
all political claims of the colored
people of that section is only widen
ing and deepening the rift in the
Southern colored vote. Hon. p. ID.
S. Pinchback, prominent colorcd
Republican of Louisiana, who was
Lieutcnant Governor under the
Grant regime, said few days ago:
aft the Presidents ultimatum is to
throw the party in the South over
board it will necessarily work the
dissolution of the bonds which have
held the eolored people all over the
country to that party. For twenty
FIVE years we have chung to the Re-
publican party us our only saliva
ton. We have been, taught that
upon our adherence to that party
depended our freedom, and we have
always followed blindly in the foot
steps of our white leaders. 1t be-
came part of the religion of our
people and nothing short of such a
rebuke as we received from Mr..
Harrison could turn onr people,
However, we have found out by ac-
tual experience that we are oppress-
ed no more under Democratic than
under Republican rule. 1 tell you
the generation of colorcd people
which was brought up during the
war is rapidly disappearing and the
new generation which has never
been in slavery is becoming edu-
Gated and able to do its own think
ing. These young men are growing
tired of the yoke that has been
placed upon them and they see all
too plainly that the old debt which
they owe for their freedom is not
entirely due to the Republican
party. In other words, the colored
people are beginning to look out for
their own interest, and in doing so,
they arc rapidly learning that their
best interests are not subscrvcd by
voting solidly with the Republican
party. Whatever debt we owed has
been paid many times over and now
that the party turns its back upon
us we will not feel obliged any lon
ger to follow in its wake"

The Great Industrial Ba,tIe.


Warner Miller declares that the
battle for protectionism is not vet
ended. Warner Miller is correct
Tho striking cotton-mill opera
tivca of New England, the dismissed
iron-workers of Reading, the half
starved coal-miners and haIf-paid
foundry-men of Pennsylvania, the
disappointed and disguised wage
workers of all industries, in all
parts of the country, who have been
told 80 often by the demagogues OF
protectionism that high tariff means
high wages, are almost unanimously
in accord with the opinion of War
ner Miller. And the agriculturists
of the West, who, failing to discover
the promised home markets for their
products, but discovering, in It's
stead, that in almost every Iegisla-
turc the spirit of monopoly is striv-
nag to cut off and restrict access to
the markets of our own country for
our own producers, are coming to
the same opinion. Warner Miller
Is correct

Down and still down go the wages
OF workingmen il the highly pro-
tected industries. The great strike
among the iron and steel workers
at Duqucsne, Pa, has failed and the
men go to work at reduced pay
The Green Glass and Bottle Asso-
citation has notified the K. of l..
tilass Blowers Assembly that
workmen must prepare to accept a
material reduction in wages for the
next blast, which will begin Sep
trmber LIST. The glass blowers will
resist, but it will probably be use
less. Mr.. Carnegie is recasting the
wage list in his immense works ut
Braddock, Pa, with view to re-
dnction; and so it goes. What an
oversight, says the U'orld, it was in
the workingmen who were bam-
bouzled into voting TO keep up the
war tariff in order to secure "Amer-
lean wages for American men" that
they did not have inserted IN the
law a clause compelling the pro-
tected mine owners and manufac-
turers to "divide fairly" the boun-
ties of the tariff. AS it is, the mo-
nopolists get all the meat and throw
to their workmen the bone.

Miners Starving, Their wives

ViI,R

FRANKLIN, Pa, May 16.-Owing
to the coal mines at Stoneboro being
closed down, the greatest part of
the time the miners of that place
are said to be suffering in many
instances for the necessaries of life.
Some of them do not get more than
two days work in week, and ut
the present price for mining coal
arc not able to support themselves
and the large families dependent
upon them, and are reduced to the
most abject>poverty.
To-day woman, accompanied by
four small children, with scarcely
sufficient clothing to cover their
nalledness, was in the city begging,
aud the pititul story she told of the
suffering and poverty at the mines
has been fully borne out by an in
vestigation. The stockholders re-
fuse to credit the miners aud many
of them have started out on the
road in the hopes of striking a job
by which they can better their CON

Democrats and the Tarin.

The Democratic party has been
killed several times. bat somehow
or other it makes wonderful resur-
reetions. When it was beaten by
William Henry Harrison in 1910,
the cry was that the tariff question
had destroyed it. Four years after
wards it stood up and elected Polk
on the Texas and tariff issues. In
1913 the party was once more de-
eiared surely dead. The tariff had
dsRs it again and Zachary Taylor
was chosen President. yet in 1852
the Democracy put Franklin Pierce
in the White House. and followed
up It's success by eleeting James
Buchanan. 1t lost the country on
the sectional issues of 1860. 1t won
in 1884 and now we are again assur-
ed that the tariff discussion has
buried it forever. But the Democ-
rscy is a, Iong-Hsed parity, and in
1892 history may repeat itself and
tbe control of the government pass

Some time perhaps, but years
hence, the working people will learn
that the professional politician is Il
professional liar, and then they will
begin to study economic problems
for themselves. So long as the la
boring man accepts for truth the
theories gifted with high wages
and constant work that protective
tariff is the choicest of blessings. Just
that long will he be the companion
of poverty and want. a pathetic
and earnest appeal has recently been
issued by the Knights of Labor of
WiIkesbarre, Penna-, for aid for the
Impoverished and suffering coal min
ers of that region who arc in abject
and real suffering. In the circular
sent out is the following sentence:
People bordering on starvation,
aud heads of families who worked
"niy five days on an average for the
last four months; no credit to be had
anywhere; nine or ten families have
had no meat since Christmas. and
bread is scarce in many homes"
Could any other tariff system,
could the rankest free trade, bring
about a worse condition.
1t must not be forgotten, however,
that the poverty of the consumer
creates an equal loss for the producer
to bear. The farmers, storekeepers,
the hucksters, and all whose business,
and liveIyhOOd rely npon the con-
sumption ofthe laboring man and his
family, find their business brought
to Il stand still by the inability of
the consumer to pay for what he cats
aud wears The consumer Cthe la
borer) can not buy for he has moth
ing to pay WITH the producer (the
farmer, &C., can not pay his debts
because he can not sell his products
And thus it goes from one branch of
business to another, creating hard
times, poverty, sheriff-s sales and

were added to his earthly posses
sions.
a San and Voice reporter drop
ped in to see Mr.. Weber Friday
He found little gray-haired, good
natured German, whose acquain-
lance with English is far from per-
feet, but by whom, with the assistance
of his comedy and more thoroughly
Americanized daughter, he was as
sured the rumOrs of the financial
windtall were entirely true.
Mr.. Weber is indeed u fortunate
man. So large fortune seldom
comes in a lump to Il laboring man,
coming as it does, in his old age,
when his days of activity are at the
most but few, it is an untold bless
ing, and would that we all could
be similarly favored. We under
stand that Mr.. Weber purposes re-
turning to Germany in the near
future.
TO his old friends and relatives
on the other side of the ocean, Mr..
Weber will d0ubtlesst have better
stories to tell of his new home than
they have ever heard before. The

him seem to the residents of Bis
