the scourges which atfiict mankind.
Chronic sores, cancerous humors, emacia-
ton, and consumption, are the result OF
scrofula. Ayers Sarsaparilla eradicates
this poison, and restores, to the blood,
the elements of life and health.

Corn Two Hundred Years Old,

A. j. Mercer, living near Burden,
Kan, says the Fort Worth TEX
Gazette, has patch of corn which is
the rarest ever grown. The patch is
small, but the corn is a kind that has
never been seen in this country before
Last spring Mercer opened a mound on
his farm and in it found a lot of corn
along with certain prehistoric relics
showing that the corn had been put in
there ages ago. 1t was in a sealed ja1
and was about peck in quantity. He
gave away about half of it to his neigh
bors and others who heard of it and
wanted few grains for a curiosity
When planting time came he thought
it would be good idea to plant some
of it, and prepared patch of ground
near his house and planted about two
quarts of the seed. 1t came up and
thrived well under the cultivation
given it. The ears came well. 1t has
now been harvested. The ears were
about six inches long and the grains
were close together, standing up with
sharp points. The grains are small,
being about one-fourth the size of an
ordinary grain of corn. Mercer thinks
that this must undoubtedly be the
original corn of this country from
which the present has sprung through
long and high cultivation. What is
remarkable about it is that the mound
from which it was taken has every
evidence of being very old, for trees
were growing on it that could not be
less than two hundred years old. The
relics found with the corn are similar
to those found in the mounds of Hi
nois and Ohio, and this mound must
have been co-existent with those,
which are believed to have been over a
thousand years old. Mercer has sent
samples of his corn to friends in the
East and to the government officials at
Washington.

The United States Senate Tuesday,
February 23rd, passed several bills,

sion on the subject of the alcoholic
liquor traffic, but the vote passing this
bill was afterwards reconsidered. The

was further discussed by Senators Pad
dock, Bate and Coke.
In the House there was slim at
tendance of members, and no business
of interest was transacted.
In the Senate, Wednesday, Mr.. Sher-
man introduced a bill to protect for
eign exhibitors at the Worlds Fair.
The Idaho contested senatorial case
was further discussed.
In the Senate, Thursday, Mr.. Vest
attacked the reciprocity feature in the

results could be pointed out. Mr.. Hale
replied to Mr.. Vest. The Idaho con-
tested case was further discussed.

On vote on one of the amendments
offered, the point of no quorum was
raised. The chair replied that there
was evidently a quorum present, but
that the chair could not vote them
The gentlemen must do their own vOt-
ing. This elected applause from the
democratic side. An amendment was
adopted authorizing the President to
detail officers OF the army as Indian
agents when vacancy occurs in any
of the agencies, such officers to be I'M
der the orders and direction of the
Secretary of the Interior.

Election of Senators by Popular Vote.

We publish in this issue the able
argument in favor of the report sub
mitted by Hon. ST. G. Tucker, from
the select committee on the election of
President and Vice-President and
Representative in Congress, in favor OF
the election of United States Senators
by the direct vote of the people of the
several States, instead, as now, by the
Legislatures thereof In reference to
this report and the argument in sup
port of it, the New York World says
editorially that 1.-The favorable report
of the House Committee on the subject
of the popular election of United States
Senators cannot fail to hasten the sue
cess of that desirable reform.
AS contribution to this discussion
the report of the House Committee on
the Election of President and Vice
President deserves thoughtful study
by every citizen who appreciates his
high prerogative of shaping the funda-
mental legislation of the country. The
strength of our Government and the
hopes of our future are largely based
on the truth that in this country all
power comes from the people. This is
no mere phrase, no hollow pretense
it is fact, a reality, an absolute pos
session of the individual voter. And
it's genuineness is proved by the cir
ar 81 <>f1 &c 10
consider a change in the method of as
sorting the share of the State in ma
tional legislation which has now pre-
vailed for hundred years.
The points touched on by the report
are that the undesirable influences of
politics are more effective with the
limited membership of State Legisla-
ture than with the whole body of
voters that the relations of power
and responsibility, which should go
together hand in hand, do not exist
between the Senators and the State
Legislatures; that the State as politi-
cal unit IS not represented fully in the
election of Senator by the action of
only one of its three coordinate de-
partments that the legislative election
districts are not always fairly laid out
las witness the districting of New York
and Ohio, and finally, that 1.-The State
and Federal affairs should, as far as
possible, be kept distinct and separate
for the purity of each and the better
ment of both"
These are points which are forceful,
pertinent and timely. They commend
themselves to popular approval They
are free from selfshness or partisan
ship, and the mere statement of them
carries with it an argument in favor of
change which will carry out more
fully the intention of the trainers of
the Constitution by strengthening the
edifice they planned so wisely"

IT'S True, and Pity IT'S IT'S True.

The Washington correspondent OF
the Alexandria Gazette says =
In the United States Senate Friday
evening Mr.. Berry, of Arkansas, said
that when the present administration
came into power there were over one
hundred millions in the Treasury, but
that now republican Senators stated
that the government is out of money
and must issue new bonds in order to
raise it. He wanted, he said, to let the
people of the country know that there
is no doubt of the fact that this coun-
try now cannot pay the ordinary ex-
penses of government without borrow
ing money with which to do so. And
the worst of this is that every word
Mr.. Berry slid was true
