There is more cltarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put to-
gcther, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For great
many years doctors pronounced it local
disease, and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be constitutional
disease and therefore requires a constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. j. Cheney & Co., To-
ledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure
on the market. It is taken internally in
doses of from 10 drops to teaspoonful. 1t
acts directly on the blood and ucous sur
faces of the system. They offer one hum
dred dollars for any case it fails to cure.

TARIFF AND THE FARMERS. - Hon. Ben
Buttorworth, prominent Republican Con-
gresham from Ohio, in speech in Con-
gress, said:-
81 can name on my ten fingers men
whose combined profits in the last decade
have exceeded those of all the sgricultur-
lists of any State in the Union"
That shows whom the tariff benefits and
whom it does not, and yet some Republi-
cans have the cheek to tell the farmers
that the tariff benefits them.
James G.. Blaine, though a high tariff
man, admits that the Republican tariff does
not open market for an additional bushel
of wheat or a barrel of pork, yet its advo.
Gates claim that it is in the interest of the
farmers. Fudge! l. IS an insult to their
intelligence.

The clamor about hard times because of
national laws is nothing but demagoguery.
No one feels the least tax. He does not
know when he pays it. He does not see a
Federal tax collector, and consequently
would not recognize any tax as being paid
to the government, unless dinned into his
ear by partizan demagogues.-Va lley Vir-
gilman.
Exactly,-the tax payer does not know
he is being taxed, and in that consists the
danger. The victim Of tho vampire does
not know that his blood is being sucked
from his veins, but that does not prevent
him from being bled to death. "He does
not see Federal tax collector" but he
exists nevertheless, and if he should pay a
visit to the customs house in New York he
would see plenty of tax-collectors, who COL
lect the tax on imports, and then the impor-
ters put the tax on the goods, and then the
merchants collect them with increase from
those who purchase their goods, and thus
he pays the tax though ''he does not know
when he pays it.
The Virgin,an acknowledges that he
pays the tax, but says he would not know
| it if it were not ''dinned into his ear by
| partisan demagogues;" SO the man who
tells the taxpayer that he is paying tax,
though it is true, is characterized as q
BIPARTISAN demagogue." The taxpayer
should recognize him as friend and pa
| triot. The Federal tax is vampire that
secretly sucks the life blood from the body
polite, and if allowed to con tinue its drain
will inevitably result fatally to the interests
and prosperity of the people. is
The party robbed by pick-pocket thief,
is none the less loser though he may not
know how or when he was robbed; and he
| is none the less loser, even though he may
| never know that he was robbed at all. II 8
money has been mysteriously taken from
him, and is at effectually lost, and its loss
| is as great, as if he knew how and
| when it was lost.
| WON'T Follow CRAIe.-A Republican
correspondent of the Richmond Times, in
his account of the action of the Republican
county convention in electing W. E. Craig
as chairman Of the county and city ,ees7mmit-
i tees. says
The respectable part of the Republican
party will not follow Craig. Even Allen
says, 81 am done; this is a good jumping off
place. The primaries were gotten up upon
the most approved Malone methods, and
did not represent the best element of the
party. Write its epitapb, died of Malone
county. craftsmanship"
When s. Brown Allen concludes it is time
to sJunb," many other Republicans will
do so likewise, and the remark of one of
the speakers In tina. convention may bs sub
stantially verified, who declared that, if
Craig should be elected in the next election,
the Republicans would not have more than
a Corporal's guard. Another remarked
that it was necessary to change to avoid the
| trickery that has been practiced.

Ambitious New York.

The needs of New Workers and of their
constant army of guests for new hotel
of such perfection and size-above all,
S seas to deserve being called 1.-The pal
ace hotel of America, is never more
thoroughly understood than now, when
several new candidates for public favor
are presented and when several hotels,
notably the Astor caravansaries, are pro-
iected. A new hotel at BED street and
Broadway is nearly completed, and an
other, at Both street and 9th avenue,
will be soon. New York needs badly, ="
said Chief Clerk Carr, who has been III
charge of the Fifth Avenue desk ever
since the Fifth Avenue Hotel was opened
in 1859, "a hotel which in size, as well
as perfection of appointment, shall be
superior to anything i'll existence here,
and able to stand comparison with and
even to surpass the Metropole and the
Savoy in London. There is nothing too
good, no appointment too complete, no
detail too luxurious and exact for the
travelling American public. What a
thing it would be for the city if Mr. AS
tor would take that whole block on 9th
avenue between 33d and 81, h streets and
nut up a 10 story marble building, with
marble floors and wanscoting, marble
and iron stairways, and two great inter-
secting marble lined Railways, each Az
feet wide and running the whole length
and depth of the building. In such
house every bath room even ought to
lave marble floors and porcelain tubs,
every partition wall should be of fire
brick, every stairway fire proof and
bronze rallied every stick of furniture as
modern and luxurious as it could be,
every door ard window planned for COM
fort, light. ventilaton-the whole worthy
of the size and of the name-the grand
est hotel in the world. Thirty-fourth
street is our finest cross street; 9th ave-
nue. from Madison Square to 59th street
will soon be the great highway of retail
traffic. lust as Broadway used to be from
CITY Hall to Union Square In such a
hotel stores could be rented on three
sides at prices which would soon pay for
the building. The site is unapproach-
able. But nobody need go outside of
New York to find manager for it. New
Workers only know the needs of the great
public. Every time a hotel has been
built above the Fifth Avenue for 30
years-when it was the furthest up
town-people have said that will take
off your trade But they haven't done
it. New York has enough medium sized
hotels. What is needed is a palace.
