what an Egg Will no.

For burns and scalds nothing is
more soothing than the white of au
egg, which may be poured over the
wound. 1t is softer as varnish for Il
burn than 'collooion, and being always
at hand can be applied immediately.
It is also more cooling than sweet oil
and cotton which was formerly sup
posed to be the surcst application to al
lay the snlarting pain. 1t is the con-
tact with the air which gives the eX-
treme discomfort experience from tile
ordinary accident of this kind, and
anything that excludes the air and pre-
vents Inflammation is the thing to be
at once applied.
The egg is considered one Of the best
of remedies for dsycntery. Beaten up
slightly, with or without sugar, and
swallowed at a gulp, it tends, by lis
emolient qualities, TO lessen the inflam-
nation of the stomach and intestines,
and, by forming transient coating
on these organs, to resume her health
full sway over Il diseased body. Two,
or at most three eggs per day would he
all that is required in ordinary eases
and since egg is not merely medicine
but food as well, the lighter the diet
otherwise aud the quieter the patient is
kept the more certain and rapid is the
recovery.

FOLLY OF THE COTTON STORAGE IDEA.

Governor Gilman said in case cotton got
damned up in the warehouses the consumers
would know that 1t would have to come out
In time and that just as soon as the quantity
was known, which could not be concealed,
the price would gravi!ate 10 Its normal level.
This Illustration lie introduced TO show that
an artificial means c0nld not evade or run
counter TO an established law In the CONNER
clal world. 1t was asserted he said, that by
spreading the supply over twelve months the
fall In price would be prevented and that the
evils Of nconsiant prices would be obviated.
They had however, forgotten that by the
terms OF the bill by which the whole could be
only held for twelve months, one.twelfth of
the crops must be sold each month, and that
there was absolutely nothing 10 prevent the
Sspeculator from having the same chance as
lie holds under existing laws. He would have
the same chance with the sub-treasury rs he
now has with the people. The Governor held
10 the POSITION that the sub-treasury bill was
class legislation, or, us lie put IL today. ait Is
a special privilege rather than q right" i adj
nit he said, that the Government has loaned
money, but The right for such action Is based
on the gen neral welfare clause Of the Constitu-
tion, land not upon proscriptive or statuary
right. 1t will not be denied that any scheme
may take for It's assumption OF right the elas-
tic general welfare clause OF the Constitution.
which from Its very name settles no specific
right or principle.

TESTING THE ocALA p1ArroKN

Governor Tllman then took up the Ocaa
platform and discussed 1t from The opening to
the closing section. He laid great stress on
the value and importance of the free coinage
nf silver and explained the robbery commit.
ter: by Its decentralization. He then argued In
favor of an income tax and the absolute ne
cessity of having Senators elected directly by
the people so as 10 get rid Of the power eXer.
clsed BY mtlliona!res who bought and sold
the people like cattle or hogs.
He clHlmed that the sub.treasury bill had
come to the people downward from the st.
Louis meeting In a perfnnctory way, and that
II had gone back TO Ocaln and had been en-
dorsed In the same way, with the results and
effects not understood By the people, the
source of authority. tApplause.) But will
not deny" he said, THAT the agitation has
done great good in this broad country Of ours,
for II has called attention Of the world to the
fact that the producing classes are sOrely op-
pressed, and are demanding, crying for relief.
tAppInuse)
Governor Tilman then touched upon the
currency question. am, he said, in favor of
Il flexible currency, OF Il greatcr volume Of
currency; but maintain that:l flexible cur.
rency MS enuncatcd by Col. Terrell means an
attempt to fix prices by legislation, TO fix the
price OF commodities by statute. That, my
trends, Is Il fallacy. because the price must be
regulated by the inheXlble law Of supply and
demand. .=

Don't Dog the Cows.

Every one who has anything to do
with II COW should learn thoroughly
this fact: That every annoyance and
thing that eXcites or frets her takes Il
proportion from both the amount and
richness of her yield, and in just so
much takes money from her owners
pocket. A man who will permit it to
be done, much less himself dog the
cows home from the pasture, or kick
aud club them about the barn or yards
is not fit person to own or have
charge of cows. 1t is not only cruel to
the defenceless COW, but is ruinous to
his own finances, reason that ought
to compel proper treatment of his prop
erty if humanity will not.-Western

"At first 1t seemed clear to my mind. that q
few Of the prominent brethren, were anxious
10 see Tiilman make Il breach between him
self and the Alliance. But Governor Tillman
was in Ell tire sympathy with the demands OF
the order. His only objection was In the de-
tails. and OF course the ., lllancc woul Id not be
so intolerant toward q brother as to fall out
with him an non essentials. j believe Cover.

be ungratefnl if The party Which he organize
and led to victory, should now repndlate him
because of Il slight difference in opinion as To
the details OF ~ great principle about which
there IL no difference OF opinion. In the AL
lance are many brethren who aspire to office,
and OF course all such would be glad to see
new deal, even I they did nothing 10 bring 1t
about lsut II any have enterta!nctl hopes of
new deal they Will be mistaken. Governor
illman Is stronger to-day with the people
than at any other time, and the Alliance nev.
er was in greater harmony than 1t is to-day.

POLK As A SOCIALIST.

He characterized Col Polk's views on the
money question, referring to the Government
lending money with the avowed intent OF in
Juring other classes Of business, as Socialism.
1t would amount in the epd to division Of
the property Of the people and produce con-
dition III which the provident and the i'm
provideut would share alike.
Governor Tillman repeated here that tho
Alliance all agreed rs TO o grievous wrong ex-
Isting and that-the dispute was only as to the
remedy. He pointed out as causes Of the
burden on the people CT the South the in
eaualities of the burdens laid on their should
ers rs compared with the people Of the North
and elsewhere. He showed that the million
aire and the poor farmer were the simultan-
pous and necessary product Of such laws. He
thought that there was just ns much hope Of
present for getting tho sub.treasury bill
through as there was for the South being
paid Tor negroes or getting the Federal pen
sions reduced. On the contrary. he saw:a dis
position To pension every hummer, whether
or not he had ever heard the whiz of a bullet.
In fact, he believed the time was coming
when the pensions would be increased to
5000 600 OU0.

How the Fire should Re Kept.

Never have the coal come above the

the fire keep damper close; When need

soMErr,LG ABouE THE THIRD PARTY.

Governor TilIman then paid his respects 10
the Third Party. He read tabulated state
ments showing the electoral strength OF the
Democratic and Republican parties Of all the
States. He took those States in which the
farmers were In the majority and said that If
all Of them declared fora Third Party they
could not elect the President. The Idea is, he
said, for the Western and Southern farmer to
control the country, but that would be impos.
the farmers have majority. 1t should be re-
membered that, while there were SNo SSS SSs @ en-
gagged in other occupations. They should re-
i1ember that the Republican farmers In the
partisan as regards the South, and that the
Democrats were for the most part from the

words, that there should be equal rights 10

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania

FNc COMnOHWeHttH VI 1'cuhSS AN"hiN'
Extract from recent speech of Gov
ernor Robert E. Patterson:
The historian records that when
Peter, the great Russian reformer, at
tended meeting of Quakers he could
not but cxclainl: elbow happy must
he Il community constituted on their
principles" Beautiful u said the
philosophic Frederick of Prussia,
when u hundred years later he read
the account OF the Government; cit
is perfect if it can endure" !" This was
Penn's government-the beginning in
Pennsylvania. 1t excited the adnira-
ton if it did not arouse the sympa-
thies of the master minds Of Europe.
1t was founded upon the sovereignty
of the people, the capacity of men for
selfgovernment-a pure democracy.
All history and experience had deuied
it.
From the banks of Delaware, near
ly q hundred years before Washington
fought and Jefferson wrote, Penn pro-
claimed the rights of the people, the
quality of men and the aim of govern
men to be freedom and happiness.
The influence Of the teachings OF the
quiet Quaker was felt in the homes
along the Potomac and in the moun-
tans of Virginia. He enlightened the
civilized world by his Institutions.
But for the hereditary office of Pro-
prietary, Pennsylvania had early
been representative democracy. By
the application of the principles OF
popular government to the conduct of
public affairs, wealth and population
and the happiness and pros
perity of the people were secured. 1t
is even more necessary now than ever
to hold fast to them in the administra-
tion of public trusts. Is it not possi-
bic that many of the problems OF the
day that perplcX governments may find
in tliem Il solution:
Penn had no trouble with the In-
dian question:. Outnumberedand sur
rounded by snvagcs who had never
known the touch of civilization, he
succeeded in bringing all within the
terms of his Government. lie came
without arms. He declared his pur-
pose to abstain from violence; lie had
no message but peace, and not drop
of Quaker blood was ever she'd by an
Indian. The Government has recent
Iy llonored ut distinguished Friend,
Philip G.. Garrett, Of this community,
by appointment us Indian Commits
sioner. We bespe;lk for him a safe de-
liverancc. Let it not be written that
he was the first to break this record.
While we contemplate the greatness
and glory of our Commonwealth, may
we ever bear in mind that we are in
debted to him who ut the beginning
made wise selection of his territory
and chad Il tender care of the Govern
ment that it bc well laid ut first" Let
the citizens Of Pennsylvania pledge
Ithrnlselves to continue to build up
this great State in her polity aud in
Islitutions until they shall become q
greater blessing to all the people with.
in her jurisdiction and an example
worthy of imitation by other cont
munilics. Occupying u conspicous
position among her sister States, may
PENNSYLVANIA ever continue prc.emln
cnt III her fidelity to the Union and tc
the sovereignty of the people.

The question to his right TO seat within the
body was raised. He declined to retire, and
forced the Alliance To Il vote on his right to
be inside. The vote was taken, and he was
unanimously excluded. AS this matter has
been somewhat talked about by Alllancemen,
anu there arc other newspaper men here IL is
proper to state that reference is had to Mr..
W. j. Shelton, representing. the Charleston
World. A man from Georgia, and having the
password, secured admission last night to the
meeting Of the State Exchange. He was un.
known TO any of the members. and, rather
than embarrass them, retired.
After his expulsion, Mr.. Shelton came on
the street and publicly proclaimed the pass
word by which he secured admitinnce. The
Alliance had taken the precautlon to have
one of its mem bers follow Mr.. Shelton out OF
the ha II, and he heard this public announce

TO Prevent thc Packing of Salt.

The tendency of salt to pack togeth-
er in cruets and containers may be en-
tirely overcome by thoroughly drying
the salt and Intimately mingling with
it IL small percentage of dry cornstarch

cent. is amply sufficient for the most
