KOCH,S DISCOYERY.

The tubercle baciui was discovered by
Prof. Koch, to be constantly present in
all cases of consumption. Where the
blood is impoverished or impure. there
results that constitutional condition
known as scrofula. which is character
lied by the liability of certain tissues
to become the seat Of chronic inflam-
nations and engagements. Virchow
says "their vulnerability is excessive"
Consequently, exciting causes which
would have only passing effect upon =
healthy subject would produce inflam-
nation and disease in the scrofulous.
These troubles may start as catarrh in
the nasal passages, throat or lungs, and
as the membranes become weakened,
the tuberclc bacilli enter, and multi
ply, and we have, as q result, that dread
disease-Consumption.
Find perfect remedy for scrofula, in
ell its forms something that puJTfeS
the blood, as well rs claims to. That
if it's taken In time, will cure Con-
sumption. 1t has been found, in DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. As
q strenGth-restorer. blood-cleanscr, and
1lesh-builder, nothing like it is known
to medical science. For Scrofula, Bron-
chial, Throat, and Lung affections, Weak
Lungs, severe Coughs, and kindred all
ments, it's the only remedy so sure that
it can be guaranteed. If it doesn't bene-
ht or cure, your money is refunded.

Ex-President Cleveland Wants
Tariff Reform Pushed.

CANTON, O., Dec. 1.-The Young
Mems Democratic Club of Canton cele-
brated with a banquet last night the
fourth anniversary of the issuance of

age. Letters of regret were read from
eX-President Cleveland, Cows. Camp
bell, of Ohio: BOies. of Iowa. and Rus

in his letter, said, in part: 81 regret
that 1 am unable to attend the meeting.
The value and significance OF this occa-
the evidence it furnishes of de-
termination to push the issue of
tariff reform in practical and
effective manner. 1t is the
duty of the Democratic party to do this,
and eXpedieucy as we'll as duty fOrbids
any backward step or faltering. No
party can succeed which deliberately
relinquishes a principle on the eve of
its vindication, and no party ought TO sue
coed which. having led men to an
honest examination of question vital

their guidance and leaves them in doubt
and perpleXity. The confidence bonn of
partial success and the assertion of the
claims Of any individual to party leader
ship ought not to divert Us from the
duty We owe to the people. Our obi
cation to them will not be discharged
until in every hamlet and neighbOrhOed
in the land our cause is so presented to
our cOuntrymen that they can no longer
be deceived through blunderS, nor cor

CATHOLIC CONGRESS.
Subjects to Be Considered-Edu
catiOnal Exhibit

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 4.-The committee
having in charge the proposed work of
the Catholic congress of 1893, have held
important meetings during the week.
Their work has been submitted to the
cardinal and archbiShops, who have ap-
proved the suggestions of the committee.
The report provides that the congress
shall consist of ten general delegates
from every diocese, and additional dele
gates In the proportion of five to every
$4,000 of the Catholic population,
these delegates TO be chosen and
appointed by the bishop of the
diocese. Each Catholic uniyer-
sity, college and seminary is en-
titled to delegates, and the committee
has the right to invite TO the congress
distinguished laymen of any country,
creed or profession. 1t was determined
that the main feature of the congress
should be the social and economic ques-
lions embraced in the recent encyclical
of Pope Leo XIII. The Questions to be
considered are:
First-The rights of labor and the duties of
capital.
Second--?auperism and the remedy.
Third-Public and private cha-ity-how to
make these more effective and beneficial.
Fourth-BeneIicial work lngmen societies
and societies for young men.
Fifth-Life insurance and pension funds
for wOrkingmen
Sixth-Trade combinations and strikes.
Seyenth-Colonization
Eighth-The evils of drink and the impor-
lance of minimizing the IIague.
The preparatory work has been left
to committee on organization, of
which Archbishop Feehan. of Chicago,
is chairman, and William }. Onahan,
secretary. They will look after the
preliminary details, and in a few
months call meeting of the committee
to fix the exact time for holding the
congress.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-. Dec. 1.-Two impor-
tant conferences have been held by the
Catholic clergy this week relative to
Catholic education and display at the
Worlds Columbian exhibition. 1T.
Rev. John l.. Spalding, bishop
of Peoria. president of the edn-
cational board. stated that he could
not perform the active duties
required to forward the display and
asked to be relieved. A successor was
elected, but the name of the gentleman
Is withheld until he receives the ap-
prOyal of his religious superiors. The
selection of the executive officer COM
pleted as far as the hierarchy is con-
cerned. the entire conduct of affairs will
rest in his hands. The exhibit will have
for its aim the display of the methods
and kind of education in Catholic
schools The committee has received
assurance from the worlds fair commits
sion Of as much space as they will re-
qulre. Active work will begin at once.

The Alton Boycott Bobs Up

Committee Named to Con3id-

Roundup.

Tie meeting of the general passenger
agents of the Duluth, Eastern Mime
sofa, Wisconsin Central and Omaha,
who were to meet Mr.. Hubbard, of the
'S0O,' at his Office in Minneapolis yes
terday afternoon, has been postponed
until today, when they will meet in
General Passenger Agent Teasdale's
Office, Of the Omaha.
The case in question is one which in
wolves the making Of new rate to De-
troit, Mich. via the Chicago lines, and
the Duluth. South Shore & Atlantic
(Soo) via Mackinaw, from Duluth. The
latter road has considerable advantage
over the other roads in this business,
and their object is to humor the
500 tn such an extent that it
will raise the Detroit hgure over its
line SO as To equalize the rate via Chi
cagO. The 500 has been appealed to
before on this business. 1t holds the
latchkey. The present rate from Du-
luth To Detroit by this line is SIG. while
the Chicago lines quote SCI 35, differ
ence Of 1915. It is understood that the
Chicago roads will ask that the 500 adj
vance the rate to something near their
own figure. 1t is said the 500 intends
to put Oh a sleeper between the points
in question and hold her own. Ii this
is the case. the Duluth lines via Chicago
will probably cut by making the rate TO
Detroit $3.50, which will compel the
500 to come to terms.
