In the week ending Saturday the Dana
Sarsaparilla company sold 1872 gross of
medicine or q ,64S bottles, For the four
weeks in March ending Saturday, the sales
We're 1876 gross, or 1O5 $40 bottles. For the
months of January, February and March
the sales were 256, 900 bottles As the next
two months are among the best of the year,
it is safe to say the sales for those and the
remainder of the year will swell the grand
total anywhere from half to three-quarters
of million bottles.
The Skoda Discovery company has made
very gratifying beginning in the sale of
medicine In one month from the manufact-
ure of the medicine they have sold thirteen
gross and the outlook is encouraging. The
company has three men on the road, Mr..
Frank Colley, Mr.. Everard Wilson of Bel
fast and local man in Aroostook who are
advertising the medicine. No mailing OF

walk about. Tuesday forenoon Mrs. Smith
was seated in chair i'm front of franklin

wood while Miss Estele, daughter. was
about the house doing the mornings work.

that perhaps Mrs. Smith might have had a
shock of paralysis or fit, which caused her
to fall, anfi she might have died before she
reached the flames.

The Fate of the Silver Bill.

The silver question took an unexpected
turn in the House on Thursday last. When
Bland moved the previous question, Bur
rows. representing the Republicans, moved
to lay that motion on the table. The roll
call was a tie, standing 14s yeas to 14S
hayes on the motion to table. This gave
the Speaker the casting vote and he cast
it on the free silver side, defeating Bur
rows motion by the narrow majority of
one The Boston Journals Washington
correspondent says of this vote:
1t has demonstrated the fact of record
that the Democrats of the House, by a
Free Coinage bill without conditions, and
that if that measure shall ever come to a
direct vote and the contingency should
arise, the bill could pass the House by
the casting vote of the Speaker. The
Democrats cannot undo that part of this
days business. The record is made. Of
the vast body of the Republicans there
are only ten who would vote for free coin
age OF the few Republicans who voted
against the motion of Burrows to table,
they wished to have an opportunity to
vote for an amendment to provide for an
international monetary conference The
same three would vote against the Free
Coinage bill.
The Republicans have thus accomplish
ed their purpose They have placed the
Democrats on record and shown that the
great majority favor free coinage; they
have placed the Speaker in the position OF
giving the casting vote for free silver, and
they have recorded the votes of the Re
publicans against the Free Coinage bill.
The Republicans are as much surprised
at this result as the free coinage men are.
A close counting of the ballot furnishes
the key to the situation. The estimate OF
the Republicans as to their strength on
the motion of Burrows to table was sur
prisingly accurate. 1t scarcely varied a
single vote. Yet their estimate of the
free coinage vote was 25 short. Bland s
estimate of his forces was also 25 short.
Every Republican and every anti-silvel
Democrat was present and voted or was
paired. Not another vote could have been
mustered on that side. But on the free
coinage side there were % Democrats who
are pledged to the Bland bill, who were
absent, were not paired and were not ac-
counted for. Where were they? Were
they absent9 Ask Calvin S. Brice, the
Chairman of the Democratic National
Committee. who has been at work for a
month to prevent the Free Coinage bill
from going to the Senate. The Demo-
cratic Presidential candidates did not dare
to meet it there. They determined that
it should not 90 there. The 25 free coin
age Democrats who were absent and I'M
paired were evidently absent at the com
mand of superior Democratic authority.
Had they been present the Free Coinage
bill would pass by the estimated p or 30
majority.

Whatever statements may be made by

Maine on this question. They know, to
their sorrow, the result of the operations

restrictive laws, they have no desire to

scooped up and carried off, or whether

expected, but it is hoped the friends of
the Maine fishermen will be no fewer nor
