Antidote for Snake and Dog Bites.

Dr.. Engels has discovered in Africa a
remedy for blood poisoning caused by
the bites of snakes and rabid dogs. This
remedy is the wild, growing black
noble palm" It is stated that 500 ne
groes bitten By poisonous snakes were
treated with the extract of the palm and
4s7 were cured in Ave days. Of sixty
FIVE farmers and negroes bitten by rabid
dogs all but two were saved.
The extract is injected under the skin
and causes moderate fever. On tho
third day the fever and inflammation
disappear, and on the fifth or seventh
day the patient is cured.-New York

MONEY AND BUSINESS.

The crop conditions, if they continue,
must ultimately supply the foundation
for more active business throughout
the country. With wheat promising to
give a surplus of $1,000, 900 bushels for
export as compared with an average of
only 125.00O,000 bushels for the
past three years there should be little
doubt that the balance Of trade must
continue in our favor. The exports of
gold though amounting to about $1,000
600 count but little in the situation be-
cause they supply the especial needs Of
Berlin. Our foreign trade has been
such for some years now that even
though this is the time of year when we
naturally expect gold exports, yet our
outflow of gold is necessarily growing
smaller and except for special purposes
like the demand Of Berlin should cease
entirely. The theory for such un-
precedcnted trade dullness, Grade ia
now more quiet than last year at this

Chauncey M. Depew. who has ac-
cepted the Presidents proffer of the
portfolio of the Secretary of State, Is a
man of signal ability and much knowl-
edge OF men and things. He is dIplo-
matte if not a diplomat, and will con-
serve the high reputation of the State
Department, SO far as personal character
and high repute abroad can do so.
The NEWS does not regard the nomi-
nation as the best President Harrison
could have made. Robert Lincoln, who
has experience of cabinet duties as
Minister of War and of diplomatic duties
az Minister to Great Britain, would have
been the ideal secretary. 1t is an un-
favorable phase of Mr.. Depews appoint
ment that the public will be tempted to
associate it too closely with recent events
at Minneapolis.
Nevertheless, it is good and able
man whom President Harrison, in the
exercise of his rightful prerogative, has
called to his assistance. He will do his
work well and intelligently, though
neither he nor Lincoln, nor any man
living, can quite fill the shoes Of poor,
grief-stricken, bereft Blaine.

THE wIGwAM.

Unless a merciful Providence shall
before tomorrow intervene by sweeping
the whole contrivance into the lake by
an opportune cyclone, the Democratic
National Convention will meet to-mor-
row in the most unsightly, dangerous
and execrable piece Of human workman
ship in the building shape that greed
and recklessness ever combined to pro-
produce.
When the Democratic National Com
mittee met in Washington to select a
place for holding Convention, Chicago,
secure in the possession of the World IS
Fair, affected not to wish the Conven-
ton, though it is said that Chairman
Brice had Chicago check for $50, 900
in his pocket all the time. Then, when
the fight between Milwaukee and Kan
sas City and other towns became too hot,
what more natural TINA that the chair
man and members should decide on
Chicago!
Having paid $4,000 for the conven-
tion, Chicago folks had an economical fit.
Instead Of housing the convention in the
Auditorium which would seat 5000 peo-
pie comfortably, they resolved upon
building wigwam that would seat
$4,000, but not with comfort. The con-
tractor, having an eye to his profit, put
upa windowless barn which does not
look in the least like the pretty fancy
pictures published in the Globe and
other Democratic papers, but which did
look OH Saturday last, before the compile
tion Of the roof, exactly like the cut
which the News publishes to-day.
1t stands gaunt and ugly on the lake

which fries the pitch out Of the pine
siding, and makes the roof-that danger
ous roof decided upon only when wind
had wrecked the canvas covering and
built i'm two days-too hot to hold the
hand upon.
There is not n window. There is not
a loophole for ventilation save the big

The proposal to establish an industrial
school in Rhode Island has gone beyond
the stage of rumor and has now reached
condition where the practical work of
organizing and securing subscriptions
has been definitely begun. The charter
members are Charles Fletcher, William
A. Harris, David M. Thompson, Charles
H. Thomas, Albert r. Sherman, f. Ben
jamin Andrews and Irving M. Smith.
The scope and plan of the school are
ably outlined in an article by Mr.. d. M.
Thompson, elsewhere printed in this
issue. The prospectus states that it is an
object worthy of the most generous sup
port on the part of the manufacturers of
the State as well as the business interests
at large.

A Fair Democratic Opinion.


For Whitelaw Reid we have thorough
respect and hiking. He is an excellent
writer, q careful student, judicious
editor, courteous controversialist and
an all around newspaper man in the
best sense Of the word. He is also g
pleasing and instructive speaker, citi-
zen who Is possessed of decided execu-
tive skill, politician who has not in
creased the asperities nor figured In the
scandals Of partisanship and an Ameri-
can Republican whom opponents can
hold in esteem as readily as friends in
regard. II he should be elected he
would well discharge the parliamentary
and political duties Of the second Office
Of tho government, and he has the firm
ness, culture, discretion and self poise
which would strengthen and adorn the
first Office in the gift of the people
should the operation of the constitution
devolve it upon him.-Brooklyn Eagle

Beyond any question the president is
the strongest candidate the Republicans
could have put in the field. If anybody
has doubt upon that point let him read
the mastery and decisive nominating
speech Of Chauncey NJ. Depew, which
lays out the whole Republican plan Of
campaign as embodied by the candidacy
Of its subject. If anything had been
wanting to the nomination Of Mr.. Har-
rison, this speech would have supplied
it, and it will at once take rank as a
solid and superb piece Of convention
oratory by the side Of the famous
speeches of Ingersoll, Garfield and Conk-
ling. 1t shows us upon the threshold Of
the campaign just what we shall have
to go against, while every indication
points to a party back of it quite as
united and harmonious as parties are
wont to be.-Henry Watterson in Louis

fear and desire to get out as soon as
possible,


The heart Of the nation goes out in
genuine sympathy to its great states
man upon whose household death has
descended so often and with so heavy a
hand within the last few years. Bereft
Of his eldest son, whose political gifts
and strong grasp of public questions
bade fair to carry the name OF Blaine
brilliantly forward into the next genera
ton; bereft of the daughter whom he
loved, and now bereft of his second son,
whose business sense and sterling per-
sonal qualities had won him general re-
spect and regard, James q. Blaine is
bereft indeed.
Emmons Blaine worked hard for his
father at Minneapolis. He had set his
heart upon Mr.. Blaine's nomination.
Defeat was without question disap-
pointment and a shock to him; but there
seems to be no reason for the hasty
assumption that the result of the con-
vention prostrated him and was the
immediate cause of his illness.
Emmons Blaine had attained COM
manding place in his chosen profession.
The suddenness Of his death makes the
bereavement the more crushing. His
father, his mother and his young wife
by the side of their dead will have the
thoughts and the fellow-feeling of mil
lions of their countrymen with them to-

time) has been advanced to the effect
that already the great masses of people
are beginning to save their earnings
prior to next years visit to the Colum-
bian fair. There is undoubtedly some
thing in this view, but the depression is
too general and severe to find its cause
in such fact. Reports from various
sections of the country show no i'm
provement in buying orders save at
places near Chicago.
The iron industry continues stagnant,
and prices are as low for pig iron as they
have been since the war-this, too, in
spite of the discussion now going on be-
tween employers and employees regard
ing wages. From present aspects we
are likely to have on our hands on July
one of the most extensive strikes ever
inaugurated.
The eyes of the business and specula-
tive world are now anxiously strained
toward the Senate judiciary committee
who have the Hatch anti-option bill in
charge. The committee is almost GER
tain to report it unfavorably, but its
fate on vote is not so certain.
The bark clearings for the week
amounted to 81, ,127, 100000 or A per cent
less than last week, though 12 per cent
greater than the corresponding week
one year ago. The total failures for the
week were i6i, as compared with 1877
last week and $50 last year.

Concerning Harrison,s Second Term.

President Harrison needs no intro
duction to the American people; he
needs no strained and fulsome eulogy to
commend him to the support of the Re-
publican party. Not once since he was
elected president in 1888 have the citi-
zens whose votes raised him to that high
Office had occasion toregret their choice.
His administration during his first term
has been clean, patriotic and distinguish
ed by great achievements, and the sec
ond term will, we doubt not, be equally
advantageous to the country and credit
able to the president.-Brooklyn Times.

THE WEEKLY NEws.|

Since its foundation eight months ago
the News has been twice enlarged and
many times improved, and has presented
to its readers such a phenomenal series
Of splendid successes that they are all in
the mood to say "what next?" as they
open each nights paper.
What next this time?
The WEEKLY NEws!!
The first number will be issued next
Friday from the Office of the older pub
lication. 1t will be the LARGEST AND
BEST WEEKLY IN RHODE ISLAND FROM THE
DAY OF ITS ISSUE.
We commend in advance the WEEKLY
News to Republicans as the strongest
campaign paper for Rhode Island of
whose aid believers in the principles of
of the grand old party can avail them
selves. Every weeks issue will contain
one of Mr.. Lansing's fine letters from
Great Britain, than which no more mas
terly picture of the actual condition of
workingmen under free trade has ever
been published. Three of Mr.. Lansing's
letters are already in hand and they are
all most excellent. Each will also con-
tain tariff editorial for young voters,
lesser editorials upon other political
points as they may arise, and the most
complete news review of the political
situation from consistently and cheer
fully Republican standpoint.
We commend in advance the WEEKLY
NEWS to general readers as fine and
well-balanced paper. 1t will contain in
brief synopsis all the important news
of the week, foreign, domestic and local,
up to the very moment of going to
press. 1t will be weekly paper not
for Providence alone but for the State,
in every portion of which the News has
now a firm foothold.
The WEEKLY NEWS will make a
speciality of illustrated articles on local
and general topics. 1t will contain re-
views of the weeks activities in literary,
military, society, financial, real estate
and many other departments. 1t will
devote much attention to the special
needs of thinking women and to
the interests of the home. It will
present pure and healthful fiction and
a well-selected miscellany.
Finally we commend in advance the
WEEKLY NEWS as an advertising me-
dunn, because it viii have from the first
issue large assured circulation. Or
ders are already booked which present
fiattering aggregate of copies sold be-
fore they are printed.
We shall be pleased to receive sub
scriptions for the WEEKLY NEWS at the
rate Of 81 per year, postage paid. No
more welcome visitor to the homes of
old Rhode Islanders in other states can
be imagined, while it is admirably
adopted for circulation in more remote
parts Of the state where dailies cannot
arrive on the day Of publication.

As Certain as the Seasons.

While it would be idle to deny that
the sentiment Of large majority of
the Republican party Of California "a
vored Blaine, it is equally true that
no Republican who has the interests OF
his party at stake has any right to feel
dissatisfied with the action Of the Re.
publican convention in renominating
President Harrison. The president will
display during his second term the same
qualities which have marked his first
sound judgment, cool deliberation and
sterling and unapproachable integrity.
His election will follow his nomination
with as much certainty as one season
follows another.-San Francisco Chroni.
