What is ScrofuIa

It is that impurity In the blood, which, accumu.
lating in the glands of the neck, produces un
slightly humps or swelingsi which causes painful
running sores on the arms, legs, or feeti which
developes ulcers in the eyes, ears, OF nose often
causing blindness 81 deafness which Is the origin
OF pinples, caneerous growths, or many other
manifestations usually ascribed 10 humors."
It is a more formidable enemy than consumption
or cancer alone, for scrofula combines the worst
possible features ofboth. Being the most ancient
it is the most general Of all diseases or affections
for very few persons are entirely free from 1t.
How can it be eured9 by taking Hoods sarsa-
pariila, which, by the cures It has accomplished,
often when other medicines have failed, has
proven itself TO be potent and peculiar medicine
for this disease, For all affections Of tho blood
Hoods sarsaparilla is unequalled, and some Of the
cares it has effected are really wonderful. If you
suffer from scrofula in any Of its various forms
be sure to give Hoods sarsaparilla trial.

The question of organizing Beaver

TUESDAY. ...........JUNE 16, 1891.
Cheap Money.

Cheap money is only another name for
dear goods. The cheaper the money the
more Of IL you will have TO use to buy
barrel of -four or pound OF sugar. As
there is no royal road 20 knowledge, so
there is no royal road leading to pecuniary
prosperity. The one way is open to all.
And the man who expects TO get rich by
law Ia doomed TO disappointment. The
most that the law can do for anybody IN
respect Of this matter OF accommodating a
fortune is TO keep its hands of all bust
meas transactions and make all the persons
he has dealings with live up TO their con-
tracts. Money would soon be cheap in
deed If the schemes of the fat greenback-
urs we're carried out. IL would DO so cheap
that the community would long for re-
turn 10 the prosperity Of dear-money days.
The masses would be as indignant as they
once became here in Richmond during the
war between the States, when the famous
bread riot was produced by cheap money.
The fact is that when that riot occurred
money had become so cheap that you
could buy ten dollars of it with a pound
OF brown sugar, at the same time that
mechanic could not earn more than twenty
dollars dav. In other words, cheap mo-
ney compelled men TO Work for two pounds
of brown sugar per day.
OF course the men who are now clamor-
ing for cheap money do not desire to bring
about the condition of things which we
have lust described. When they call for
cheap money they mean TO say that they
a. L - 1f
as we have often snid, valuable money and
plentiful supply of money do not go to-
gether. The valuableness is determined
by the amount of it. The moment you
substitute irredeemable notes for redeem
able-substitute manufactured money for
real money-you cross the danger line. 1t
Is favorite saying of the fiat greenbackers
that there cannot be too much good
money, and we are willing to concode the
truth of this general statement. We can
all agree until we come TO define good
money. What is good money? Nothing
except gold and silver or notes redeem
able in gold and silver. This Is our reply
to that question. But the greenbackers
reply that Treasury notes issued by the
Government and made 81 full legal tender
by law are good money. That is to say
they contend that irredeemable Treasury
notes are good money, as good as redeem
able. if only the Government will make
them full legal tender" That is, compel
people TO receive them for all debts, not
withstanding that they are redeemable
nowhere and by nobody. We cannot teach
such financial heresy as this, nor follow a
multitude to do this evil.
We set out to write only line or two
on the subject of cheap money. We close
as we began by saying that cheap money
means dear goods If the public will act
upon this theory they will not be ruined
by wildcat currency-schemes.

Sovereign Virginia. u

When we say that no State can pass
law impairing the obligation of contracts
we do not think it necessary to add the
words, without violating the Federal
Constitution, as that instrument is ex-
pounded by the highest court in the
land" These words are understood. We
would say in like manner that no State
can make anything but gold and silver
legal tender for debt, meaning that no
State could do so without violating the
Federal Constitution. We do not deem it
necessary, therefore, to comment further
upon the following letter than to say
God save the sovereign State CD of Viz
ginia whose tobacco is all taxed by the
Federal Government.
TO tie Editor Of he Dispatch:
In The DISPATCH of the 18th instant oc-
ours the following:
THE RICHMOND DISPATCH says "no State can
pass a law 20 take eifect In future tmpairing the
Obligation Of contracts" True - the letter.

tones against all Of those schemes as schemes for
bankrupting the State. We did not choose to
fight a hopeless battle or to continue advocating
those measures when our advocacy Of them
could have no othor result than tho permanent
turning OF Virginia over 20 the Republicans.
If | understand Your ground, 1t is that
SOU did not insist upon the above point
because of the Ill consequence OF doing so.
But do not understand you as retracting
The declaration that mo State can pass
Law impairing the obligation of contracts"
But the fact is that ANY State can pass
law impairing the obligation OF contracts,
and every State of the South has passed at
least one such law since the Confederate
cause was lost and in no case, except Viz
ginias, which Is not yet decided, has the
right been called IN question by the United
States Courts.
maintain that the people of Virginia
who are better judges of their liberties
than courts or lawyers. hold that the
United States Government has no Jurlsdic-
tion whatever over the contracts of q
State; and that the wide construction
given by the United States courts to the
phrase lin the first clause of the tenth sec
tion of the Constitution "impairing the
obligation Of contracts" is a strained con-
struction originating in usurpation and
defended by precedent; and Of no binding

Figures Tell the Story.

The census-tables are accessible TO every
body. They sometimes surprise people by
their revelations of facts-cold facts which
refuse to be explained away. The census
of 1880 shows that there were then $4,000
persons over ten years of age engaged in all
occupations in Virginia. of which number
25i. 900 were engaged in farming. 1t is
clear, therefore, that Virginia was in 1880
an agricultural State. The census OF 1890
will show some changes in respect of those
matters, seeing that mining and manu-
featuring and other occupations have
made wonderful strides in this State
during the last ten years. But it is still no
doubt the fact that Virginia is an agricul-
tural Commonwealth. These farmers are
highly intelligent men, and must be treat
cd with due respect by their fellow-citi-
zens. Especially must we who reside IN
the cities bear in mind that farmers have
better opportunities than city people for
studying theoretical, financial, or soclolo-
pical problems. They will listen to our
arguments if we will in return listen to
theirs Shall we not agree to this reason
able compromise?

A Sensation Among Policemen.
nv telegraph TO the Dispatch

BR1DGEpoRT, Conn, June 15.-There was
a sensational episode in the police lmbro-
Clio last night when Patrolman Murphy,
suspended for drunkenness, but acquitted
and ordered to report for duty by the new
Democratic commissioners, was ordered
from the ranks AND roll-call by Chief Ry-
lands. Murphy refused to obey. when, by
the Chiefs orders, he was forcibly re-
moved after a struggle by two other OFF,
GERS and his badge taken away. Chief Ry-
lands, who is acting under Mayor Mari
COLDS instructions, is intrenched IN his
Office, which is guarded by officers. He says
he intends to meet force with force, and 1t
is considered certain that If a forcible
new chief there will be bloodshed.

one More Extract.


We give one more extract from the opin-
ion of the Supreme Court of the United
States in the original-package case. The
Court in maintaining that Congress had the
power 10 make a State law operate-that
is. had the power TO decide that State
law already in existence should take effect
as soon as Congress gave its consent TO the
passage Of such law argued that by the
adoption Of the Federal Constitution the
ability of the several States to act upon
such matters solely in accordance with
tier own will was extinguished, aud the
legislative will OF the General Government
was substituted. The object OF this ex-
tingusbment was TO prevent commercial
regulations partial in their character or
contrary TO the common interests from
being adopted by the several States. 30
saws the Court, which then adds:
"But this furnishes no support 20 tho position
that Congress could not, In tho exercise OF the
discretion reposed in II, concluding that the COM
mon interests did not require entire freedom IN
the trafc In ardent spirits enact the law In ques-
ton. In 80 doing Congress has not attempted 70
delegate the power 20 regulate commerce. or
10 exercise any power reserved to the States
or TO grant power not possessed by the states or
10 adopt stnto laws. II has taken its own course
and made its own regulations, applying to these
subjects Of interstate commerce one common
rule, whose uniformity is not affected by varia-
tons in State laws in dealing with such property.
"Tho power to regulate Is solely In tho Cen
eral Government, and II is an essential part OF
that regulation 10 prescribe the regular means
for accomplishing the introduction aud incorpo-
ration Of articles into and with the mass OF pro-
perry In the country or State.s
"No reason is perceived why II Congress
chooses to provide that certain designated sub
jects Of interstate commerce shall be governed
by a rule which dlyests them Of that character at
an earlier period Of time than would otherwise
be the case, Il is not within its competency to
