Idleness is a Dangerous Fault

In the kidneys. When inactive they
speedily fall into disrepair. Those
obstinate and fatal maladies, Bright's
disease and diabetes, ensue with
terrible certainty upon the inactiOn of
the organs affected. Catarrh of the
bladder, enuresis, gravel and
strangury are also to be apprehended
from partial paralysis of the bladder,
of which weakness and sluggishness
are the causes. Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters is fine tonic and promoter of
activity for the renal organs, and one
which can be relied upon to afford
them the requisite stimulus without
exciting them-an effect to be feared
from the unmedicated alcoholic eXcit-
ant of commerce. A further bene-
ficent effect of the Bitters, by renew
ing activity of the kidneys, is to en-
able them to drain from the blood in
its passages through them, impurities
productive of rheumatism and drOpsy.
Nervousness, fever and ague, consti-
patton and dyspepsia are conquered by
the Bitters. 2-l9-6t

THE Austin Statesman speaks out
in meeting concerning the late NUM-
cipal election in this city:
1.-The Express made long fight, a
hard fight and an able fight durin g
the late election contest in San An
tonic for city officers. 1t went down
in ashes and defeat. but then that is
no reason The Times should be un-
merciful. Be generous, neighbour; you
won and should be satisfied. Don't
hit men when they are down, for we
know Grice and Garfield are sorry for
it, dreadfully sorry"
How far the Statesman has papers
to prove the correctness of the above
the LIGHT knoweth not, for the States
mans knowledge of many things,
like the ways that are dark and the
tricks that are vain of the heather
Chinee, is peculiar.

JUDGE EDGERToN'S LETTER.

| JUDGE EDGERTON'S LETTER.
Judge Edgerton, civil service COM
missioner, was recently removed from
Office by Cleveland, writes his chief
an open letter, from which the follow
ing extracts are taken:
II was indebted to you for the only
appointive office ever had. You
now declare by your action that you
regret the appoin tment. | with equal
right can say that L regret the &C
ceptance.
"You found a man on your hands at
the close ofyour administration whom
| the mugwumps had declared was an
open enemy to their civil service re-
form theories, and your plan of be-
coming their representative in future
would be weakened or defeated if
some assurance of your fidelity to
their cause could be secured. Ac-
cordingly it appears that you decided
on removal of the head of the commits
sion and deeming Mr.. Thompson a
good enough mugwump for them you
demanded my resignation that you
might appoint him apparently as an
atonement for your previous inaction.
Mr.. President, with due courtesy to
the high office you hold, allow me to
say you are a very peculiar mana
positive man, positively wrong or
positively right, and therefore an I'M
safe man to trust; and that element
in your character, L believe, led to
your defeat.
If you can find as many reasons
for removing me as the democratic
party, through an Indifference which
was simply retaliatory, had for re-
moving you, / am willing to remain
with you in the gloom of defeat"
"YOu caused to be placed upon the
congressional record this announce
ment of the nomination by you to be
confirmed by the United States SEN
ate, Hugh s. Thompson, of South
Carolina, to be United States civil SER
vice commissioner, in place of Alfred
p. Edgerton, removed L do not ask
you to give any reasons for this act. [
know, and so do you, that the only
one you could give would be that it
was your will, for if you attempted to
give any other your own previous
words would prove it to be untrue. In
my interview with you before my re-
moval you expressly disclaimed hav-
ing any reasons for 1T except my re-
fusal to resign to enable you to make
Mr.. Thompson's nomination. Re-
moved is a word of far reaching po-
tency, especially when the Record
does not explain. / am conscious of
this and deeply panied by the con-
seriousness. But to the cause of the re-
moval which must become an import
ant part Of the history of the country:
/ was on the floor of the house of rep
resentatlves during the time the votes
of the electoral college were counted
and heard the announcement of the
result-that Benjamin Harrison was
duly elected president OF the United
States. But the words that burned
deep through the empty boxes of the
administration could not be officially
added though known to be true-in
place of Grover Cleveland, removed"

TUESDAY. FEBRUARY. 10, 1899.

THE enemies of Bismarck are
actively preparing to fill his place
when he retires from the administra-
tioh of German affairs, and predic-
tions are not wanting that his power
will soon be curtailed as his influence
with the.emperor is on the wane. 1t
is safe to say that the man who con-
solidated Germany and directed its
destinies during three successive
reigns will not be easily shelved; but
in the very nature of things he cannot
much longer hold the rein of power
Age will soon disqualify. When he
passes, the emperor will not be very
likely to fill his place. Men like Bis
marck are scarce, and the present en-
perOr seems more inclined to play the
role of Louis the Fourteenth than that
OfLOuis the Thirteenth. He will be his
own chancellor and assume the
actual direction of his own govern
ment, debating its policy and presid
ing over the national councils. There
will be no successor to Bismarck.
A PARTIAL truth is often worse
than whole lie. Here is a partial
truth from the Times of this city:
"Kick as hard as some of them may,
Mr.. Blaine is still the uncrowned
king of the republican party. He
will go into the cabinet simply be-
cause he cannot be left out. Mr.. Har-
risOn doesn't love Mr.. Blaine, but
Mr.. Harrison can't afford to leave
Mr. Blaine out of the cabinet"
The truth III the above is that Mr..
Blaine goes into the cabinet because
he cannot be left out. The falsehood
lies in representing an enmity on
Mr.. HarrisOn's part towards Mr.
Blaine. There is no indication of
any such enmity, nor has there been
any ground for the assertion in any,
thing transpiring lately or heretofore
between these men. Love of republi-
canism uniteS these men and the
democracy can not divorce them.
THE election for senator in West
Virginia develops a disposition to
shake Kenna and take up some other
democrat. AS Kenna received a two
third vote in the caucus he does not
propose to give up the race. One man
stands between him and election and
that one man will not vote for him to
save his shoe sole from consuming
fire. Any attempt to shake Kenna
will ALLEVIATE his friends and prevent
a union on some one else. The end is
not seen from the middle of the mud.
die, much less from the beginning.
THE republicans who have waited
with what patience they could under
the circumstances, have but two weeks
more to wait and then the govern.
ment will be IN the hands Of the PEG
pie who saved it from destruction
From the return Of the republican
party to power the nation will natur
ally expect great things. These ex
pectatiOns will only be disappointed
if disappointed they are, by the gree
. and rapacIty Of incOmL eteut officials

Two little cherubims set out
To skim the welkin blue,
They swerved and circled round about
Where stars and starlets grew.
Till suddenly where they did wing
The fluent, azure tide,
A rather tall outrageous thing
Their little eyes espied.
"Hillo !" said one tother; "look
Out yonder toward the west,
We're high above the eagles nook
On great Mount Everest.
And yet there's some upheavel Weiru
New-risen in our way,
Can't be that mortal hands nave reareo
A mountain In day ?"
"We're over Yankeelsnd," replied
The cherub number two.
"Their enterprise has oft supplied
Some marvel to our view,
Let's fiutter there and LOOK thereat.
1t may be they devise
Some ladder or affair like that,
By which to reach the skies"
In unison their wings did whizz.
