CATARRHAL DYSPEPSIA /!
AS DESCRIBED IN A POPULAR
LECTURE
BY DR.. S. b. Hartman at the Surgical
Hotel, Columbus, o.
Reported for the Press.

Catarrhal dyspepsia is disease which,
in some degree, affects thousands of people,
and IS the result Of chronic catarrhal in
fammation of the stomach or the duode-
nun. The catarrhal state may have been
brought about by irritating foods or poi
sons, Incorporate use Of ALCOHOLIC drinks,
or catarrh of the throat eXtsAding into the
stomach. In either case the result is the
same, namely, chronic ca52rrh of the lining
membrane of the stomach, This state leads
to diminished quantityeof the digestive
fluids, or else to vitia4ed quality of them.
The symptoms of tbs particular variety
of cataEh are more psAhful and damaging
to health than catarr3of any other organ.
Food takap into theHtomach at once pro-
duces paiHpr heavSl Feeling As soon as
the stoma& is city there is gnawing
pain accom- RniedE belching of gas. The
tongue andftcoa box red and angry, with
sometimes paSeb& of white coating. The
peculiar chardf of catarrhal dyspepsia,
as distinguishes from the other va
rieties, is pain hut if it is complicated, as
is frequently t&evase, with the other kinds
of dyspepsia, He Nlmptoms will vary. No
kind of food red with the stomach, but
some kinds SauseEless uueasiness than
others. The bowels may be loose, consti-
pated or iT3fgular. EThe introduction of
food into thf stomach pften causes an i'm
mediate pas sge of theNewels.
For this G. edition I Fnd Pe-ru-na to be
an admirabl 4remedy. IHsell cases it brings
prompt relied to the painf& symptoms, and
in large pei 5cent of the cases it makes
permanent Ore. Pe-ru-naf soothes the in
named muco surface, andS thus strikes
at the rood of the disease In cases
where the Inflammation his been so
severe and D continued as TO produce
extreme irritability of the stomach, the
remedy may be taken in small doses at
first, diluted in water; but, as soon as the
improvement is sufficient 20 permit the full
dose to be taken undiluted, it is better
way, and the cure is much more rapid. In
catarrh of tee head, throat and lungs, Pc
ru-na eXcels all other remedies. There is
no other medicine that so perfectly re-
stores the victim of Ia grippe, either in its
acute stage or 10 its after effects.

I saw Sussen Sage on the street the other
day, looking very much like a down East
farmer in his Sunday clothes. He was
moving along toward bis Office with shift
less gait, apparently unconcerned about
what was going on around him. His expe-
rience with the bomb thrower does not
seem to have unsettled him very much. He
was badly frightened, of course, and he was
seriously i'll for few days after the -catas-
trophe. Now, however, he Is as well as
could be expected of a man Of his age; and
il is noticeable that hs, too, like Mr.. Gould,
is more constant attendant at church than
for some years. Mr.. Sage does not devote
as much time TO Wall street matters as he
did. He is as sharp as any Yankee in
seeming dollar, but he is taking life lit.
tie easier nowadays than he has at any time
in his career. 1t is not known that he is
doing much in the way of giving money to
charity, but Mrs Sage devotes considerable
time to relieving the wants of the needy
and attending the meetings of charitabse
organizations. Mr.. Sage Is the onsefich
man in New York from whom NOTHING is
expected in the way of charitable beauests
when he dies. 1t is believed that his enor-
nous fortune will be left to his family-and
yet perhaps he has surprise in store for
his fellow-men. II would be curious if he.
should leave million dollars TO some great
organization that would perpetuate MS
name and take from it the stigma of mieaz-s
ness. w

New York and Its Police Force.

The attack upon the police department of
New York for not carrying out the laws
against the dives and the Illegal sale of
liquors is perfectly Just one. And yet it
must be said that, notwithstanding all the
violations OF law and order, New York city
is freer of crime to-day than ever before
The police officials say, in their own de-
tense, that they do not, nor should any one,
expect 70 have the city perfectly governed.
They say it IS quite impossible. for a
variety of reasons, TO carry out all the
laws; but they point 10 the fact that there
the like than ever before The talk OF cor.
ruption Of police officials may have some'
foundation in fact have heard the story.

Men VINO annoy Women.

The annoyance that women suffer in New
York from men is something intolerable
The male fiirt has come TO be recognized as
an institution Of the big town He -four
Ishes everywhere-in the downtown bust
ness streets, on upper Broadway, IN the
shopping districts, and particularly at the
theaters on matinee days. He is entirely
without conscience. He IS veil dressed Of
course, and his cheek is as hard as a stone
image He hesitates at nothing and no
woman is safe from his insults. A walk on
upper Broadway on any afternoon will show
this species of loafer in his true colors; he
unhesitatingly approaches, speaks to, and
smirks and smiles at respectable women
and girls who are total strangers to him.
Sometimes. as was the case recently, he
meets his match. The thrashing that was
recently given by the irate father of a
young girl who was approached by q well
dressed losfer is going to do much to
remedy the evil; and the fact that the
father thought enough of his daughter
to appear in a police court the next
morning and urge the punishment of the
rascal shows that if determined effort is
made TO suppress the nuisance the law will
DO its share of tie punishment. Keeping a
man IN the police station over night, and
then threatening him with six months i'm
prisonment, is very wholesome treatment
OF great evil; and there will be little difi-
Guilty in eradicating It If few fathers and
brothers make up their mind that the time
has come when something must be done.

The Day of the Politician.

The, presidential campaign has opened IN
usually early. The politicians of both par
ties and all factions have begun work, and
the big city is already astir with the noise
Of the impending battle. There is more
politics in New York city to the square
inch than in any other city in this country,
not even excepting Washington, and the
men who manipulate public affairs here have
sounded the call to arms much earlier than
IN previous campaigns. The corridors of the
uptown hotels of an evening are occupied
by politicians of all faiths discussing the
situation. 1t is queer, no matter who
begins to talk politics, Senator Hills name
Is the first one mentioned. Even his enc
mics, the Republicans, admit that he has
begun his campaign with marvellous Vigor
md courage The anti-Hil Democrats
quite freely concede the same, while the
Hill men jubilantly point to their
candidate as one greater even than
Samuel j. Tilden. Yet they are not con-
ideut that Hill will cut any sort of a
figure in the national convention. The
delegates from New York will, of course,
present his name-for they are instructed
50 to debut whether the delegates from
other states will rally to his cause in even
few numbers is a serious problem with Sen
ator Hill and his friends. 1t is believed,
however, that some sort Of a com biuation
has been made that will give Hill the votes
of the delegates from other states on the
first ballot. The antl-Hlll convention 10 De
held soon does not give the senator or his
friends any uueasiness. Delegates from this
convention will have no status in Chicago.
There is no question about the seating of
the entire Hill delegation. The anti-Hill
men only claim snap judgment on them in
stead of fraud at the primaries. These
primaries were regularly called, as was the
convention. and everything was done in the
most open. if yet summary, manner. The
general impression among the political
writers of the newspapers who have no
bias rs that Hill is losing strength every
day He made the first quarter like race
horse, but he finds it difficult to keep up the
pace.
The Republicans seem to agree that Hill
will not be the candidate of the Democratic
party Many of them wish he would, for
they feel that he will be an easy man to
beat. The Cleveland men are lying low and
hoping that the lightning may strike their
favorite 1t is so with the Harrison men
also; they believe that the present occu-
paut Of the White House will surely be
chosen in the convention TO succeed HIM
self At the present writing everything
leads me to believe them right

young girls are now placed in charge of
chaperons by their mothers whenever they
go out. Indeed, the chaperon has come TO
be a necessity, and the daughters of
wealthy families find it necessary to have
the protection of some elder female when
they take their walks abroad. The masher
has had things his own way too long.

ward and produce the necessary evidence
to prove it. Undoubtedly there are police
officials who receive money, but this is
easier to say than to prove. The one fact
that interests New Workers more than any
other is that the city, so far as the police
force is concerned, is better governed to-
day than ever before; and that is some

A direct tax would certainly be more
equitable as a source of revenue than
any system of indirect taxation. A
direct tax would be a tax upon
wealth that was able to bear the bur
den, while an indirect tax, like duties
on imports, taxes the people in pro-
portion to their expenses. Under q
system OF tariff for revenue, the poor
est class of people financially pays
the gest bulk of the taxes, while the
most wealthy who expend but an in
finitisimal fraction of their income
in consumption, pay taxes only upon
the fraction thus expended.

INCLINED TO FULFILL HIS PROMISES
Attorney General Ives stated after
his nomination that, should he be
elected, the people of Kansas would
know before the close of his term of
Office whether they were in favor of
prohibltory liquor law or not. His
notification to county attorneys that
unless they prosecute violators of the
law he will appoint officers who will
do so and instruct them to also insti-
stute proceedings against those who
fail to do their official duty, looks as
though he intends to fulfill his prom
ises. This is commendable and right
Every law upon the statute books
should be faithfully executed. This
is the only way to insure respect for
law in the minds of the people. The
beneficial effects of good laws will
thus be reslized, and the people will
be aroused to demand the repeal of
bad ones. 1t will afford us great
pleasure to uphold the attorney gen.
eral in the performance of his official
duties.
While it is true that faithful officers
have little encouragement under the
present administration to secure con-
victions under the prohibitory law,
well knowing that offenders will be
promptly pardoned, still, the hypoc-
risy and contempt Of law, which have
characterized the present state execu-
tive, really constitute no excuse TO
other officers to neglect their duty.
Let them place the governor on record
a. often as possible.

THE KANSAS CITY TIMES" ON PAPER
MONEY.

InG hANBA6 GEf1 TIMES" UN RAFGB
MONEY.
In an editorial in the Times Of the
5th inst. there is an amount Of ignor-
ance displayed that would do credit to
the Topeka Capital. The Times says:
During the civil war the United States began
to issue greenbacks when the treasury was prac-
tiCaly empty, and when there was no intention
Of rede9ming them at that time. The use Of
inc0nVertible paper Is not only an evidence Of
bad financial management, but also confession
Of bankruptcy. II the government is reckless In
using unlimited quantities Of paper money, that
Is unquestiOnsbIy evidence that the currency
may not be redeemed at its full value. During
the civil war when greenbScks were inconyerti-
bic, paper promise 70 pay fell In value as low
as S5 cents In gOld-for once 10 1854 1t required
S2.S5 In paper to buy 81 In gold. In every case
In the past this kind Of paper money has been
issued In undue. quantities and has deprecated
enormously.
If the cause here assigned for the
depreciation of the greenbacks is the
true one, will the Times be kind
enough to tell us why the first sixty
millions of paper promises to pay"
that were issued at the beginning of
the war not only remained at par but
were absolutely at a premium above
gold even in England! The Times
should know, If it does not, that the
greenbacks were purposely depre-
ciated in order to secure their retire
ment and conversion into interest
bearing bonds, which could not be
done if they remained at par. A
little more knowledge of history
would save the Times the humiliation
of placing itself on record in this
manner upon 80 important question
as this. Furthermore we challenge
it to show from history that irredeem-
able paper money has ever depre-
ciated when properly issued and con-
trolled by government authority with
q view Of sustaining its credit by
maintaining the national faith. AS
sertions like those in the Times edi-
torial are cheap. They cost nothing
and are worth nothing. Give us the

as to the 0OmpanvS officers and plans.
We have, however, obtained the
names of the officers and board Of
directors from the records in New
Jersey, and we may have occasion to
refer to them hereafter if il becomes
necessary. We simply ask now if
the history of the National Cordsge
Company has been such as to inspire
confidence that it will afford any re-
lief to the peoplei
AS to the second part of Mr.. Aliens
question "CAn we espouse it's the
National Union Compsny's) interests
without sbating in the least our op-
position to the monopoly Of money
it is unnecessary to waste words. Can
we become advocates and supporters
Of the monopoly Of money without
abating in the least our opposition to
it? This is the true statement Of the
question.
But read again from Mr.. Aliens
letter:
There is just one prolific source Of nearly, Il
not quite all, the Ills that afllct the business In
terests of the country. That is: Congress COM
pelling the people to submit to the dictatlOn OF
greed and caprice Of private parties as to the
terms on which they shall have the use Of a cir
culating medium, instead Of Congress fixing the
terms Itself In the interest Of the people.
If this is the prolific source of our
ills," it would seem that this is the
place to look for the remedy, and not
to the establishment Of trusts, es-
peciallY when by giving our support
to these trusts we ALLEVIATE every busl-
ness man in the country and insure
his opposition to our efforts; yet Mr..
Allen would have us endesvor to
remedy these ills by voluntarily sub
hitting to the yoke of the very mo-
nopolies that we should oppose. THE
ADVOCATE proposes to do just what Mr..
Allen suggests in his closing para
graph Keep in the middle of the
road" in the advocacy of the financial
reforms, without which all our efforts
are VAN; and we do not propose to
be sidetracked, as Mr.. Allen is in
danger OF being, By such schemes as
this National Union Company, which
is nothing more nor less than one Of
the plans Of the money power to de-
feat our purposes by the introduction
among ourselves Of measures that will
breed sntsgonisms of one class Of the
people against another.
The advocate., 1892-01-13
THE NATIONAL UNION COMPANY.

ter from Hon. A. F. Allen, Of Vinlsnd,
concerning this company, and invite
attention to some Of it's fallacies. Mr..
Allen says;
A damnable financial system Is forcing 70 a
life and death struggle all llnes Of bushes ex-
cept such as enter into combines with the money
power that controls absolutely the money Of the
country.
He would therefore enter into such
a combine with the money power in
the National Union Company, and
thereby exhibit the hypocrisy Of all
former pretentions of the Alliance
without gaining any advantage over
the power against which we are con-
tending or acquiring any shadow of
control of the concern in whose
power he would then voluntarily
place himself. If Mr.. Allen will
examine the plan Of this company he
will see that it does not possess a
single element Of cooperation such
as he has been an advocate of for
many years. On the other hand it is
an attempt Of New York capitalists
to monopolize the commercial inter
ests Of the entire country, and he
would help them to do it.
Again, he says:
Oppose Itas wa will, without q change In our
financial system, the trust is going to be fea-
ture Of every line of business In every city
throughout the country 10 the near future.
This is undoubtedly true; and
right here we would ask Mr.. Allen in |
which direction we are to look for
relief to the people to the establish
ment Of these trusts, or to a change
In our financial system? If to the
former, then let rs turn our attention
to the trusts and give up our fnsn-
cisl reforms. If to the latter, then
we must, as in the past, continue to
sntagonize the trusts and work and
vote for the financial reforms; and
IL we are to succeed in securing the
financial reforms, we must not an
tsgoni2e every legitimate business
interest in the entire country by Civ
ing our support to a monopoly that
proposes nothing short Of a destruc-
tion Of all competition, both in manu-
facture and trade. But read again
from Mr.. Aliens self contradictory
letter:
One Of three things must soon occur-either
we shall soon destroy the power Of money to
oppress, or we shall put ourselves In q way to
perpetuste our power to fight It while the peo-
pie in the towns are getting their eyes opened
by embracing some such advantage as the Ma
tional Union Company offers, or so great pOr-
ton OF our population will be impoverished as to
make contest depending on brains and ballots
for success an utterly futile one.
This, as whole, is most remark
able statement. How will we "de-
stroy the power Of money to oppress,"
or how "put ourselves in a way TO
perpetuate our power to fight 1T" by
voluntarily submitting ourselves to
its schemes and placing ourselves ab-
Bolutely in its clutches; and how will
We succeed in Opening the eyes of
the people in the towns" If we thus
place ourselves in direct antsgonism
to their business interests? We did
uuooood in onanino The avaa of the

But read again from this most re-


But, 1t IL objected, this Is trust the very
thing the Alliance was organized TO oppose.
Very good. And 90 was General G ant opposed
to war; yet, to establish peace, he fought.
Very true; but he did not begin
his battles by laying down his arms
and surrendering his forces to the
enemy. He demanded the "uncondi-
tioDal surrender" Of the enemy and
his lines never wavered until his de-
mands were complied wi4h. Hence
his success.
Again:
Frequently the very successful means of Op-
posing an evil is In the use Of It's own Liethods.
True, again, provided those meth
DDS are in our own hands; but when
we voluntarily subject ourselves to
those methods in the hands Of the
enemy, as Mr.. Allen would do in this
case, we become the victims of our
own folly.
He asks:
Must one go out empty handed to contest
with human devils?
No; nor is il good policy or good
sense to voluntarily surrender our
selves into the clutches OF those
devils simply because they appear as
angels of light while the cloven hoof
is plainly visible underneath the
Aimsy disguise.
Again:
am opposed to trusts The Alliance is op-
posed to tuusts.
One woul naturally think so from
the tenor Of the letter.
But, sir, with the gigantic money trust in exist
ence, everything Is jeOpardized outside Of trust
Of some kind.
Therefore Mr.. Allen would commit
himself to something that he is op-
posed to and that the Alliance is op-
posed to. In other words he would
sell his birthright for mess of pot
tsge.
To my mind, he says, the only questions
which should sgitste the reform press in con-
lectiOn with the National Union Company, are,
ioes 1t promise reasonable assurance Of relief to
The producer, without detriment to the con-
Iumer, and can we espouse its interests with
,ut sbating In the least our opposition TO the
monopoly Of money?
Very well, we accept this test. This
% the test we submitted in our first
article in opposition to this scheme.
To what are we look for relief to the
producers Mr.. Allen has frequently
said, to change in our financial sys-
tenn. Does the National Union Com
psny promise this? What assurance
does it offer Of any advantage to any
body but itselfa We have before us
a list Of the incorporators of this con-
Germ, and q statement of one of its in
concerning its business
From this we quote.
The company is taking over stores rapidly in
many states and will have fifty stores running
BY January I, 1899, and expect the gross re-
,elptS win be not less than 20 per cent, of which
10 per cent. win be net profit.
A pretty fair profit surely. We
have not commenced this opposition
10 the National Union Company with

investigation and without first getting
INTO our hands documentary evidence
concerning its character. We unhesi-
