Disorders Which Affect the Kidneys

DISORDERS Wh1cn AuecC Cne hluueyS
Are among the most formidable known.
Diabetes, Bright's disease, gravel and
other complaints of the urinary organs
are not ordinarily cured in severe cases,
but they may be averted by timely
medication. A useful stimulant of the
urinary glands has ever been found in
Hostetters Stomach Bitters, medicine
which not only affords the requisite
stimulus when they become inactive.
but increases their vigor and secretive
power. By increasing the activity of
the kidneys and bladder, this medicine
has the additional effect of expelling
from the blood impurities which it is
the peculiar Office of those organs to
eliminate and pass off. The 'Bitters is
also purifier and strengthener of the
bowels, an invigorant of the stomach,
and matchless remedy for biliousness
and fever and ague. 1t counteracts
tendency to premature decay, and
sustains and comforts the aged and
infirm. 2-4-4t

The Salt Lake Herald says it has often
spoken Of the lack Of fair dealing with

should have been made public when the

sible for the conceslment narrowly es.

TN: MuIsKY TAX.


No party at present existing IN the
United States has the courage to attempt
to force from The pension lists the hail a
million people who have no right on 1t.
Something NAV be done in the way OF
panishiug the grossest frauds, but it will
be merely for the sake OF example. a
thorough reform is out OF the question.
All that can be done Is to put a check on
the further spread Of the Generalization
and to provide for meeting the enormous
expense already incurred. The Pension
Bureau can be transferred to the War
Department aud put under control OF an
offices OF the regular army who can tie
relied on 70 recognise it on an honest
basis. Aud when this is done ways and
means must be found Of raising the
$40, 900. 900 already incurred.
OF all The propositions advanced, the
increase of The whisky tax is abe most
feasible method Of raising the money.
An increase Of from 25 to 90 per cent
10 the presen. rate Of taxation on whisky
would certainly yield an increasing
revenue. No doubt the increase might
be made much larger than this, it neees-
sary, without seriously affecting con
sumption; for there seems to be almost
no limit to the power Of whisky to bear
taxation. rI-
The Democratic platform promises
that the necessaries OF life shall be freed
from taxation as far as possible. and that
necessary taxes shall be levied chiefly on
Injuries. 1t will be in line with the
platform to increase the whisky tax that
the clothing tax may be lowered without
depriving the Government of the revenue
that has become necessary under The
Pension system.-St. Louis Republic.

OUR SILVER POLICY,


Up to the adjournment Of the Brussels
conference it was assumed that the Sher.
nun act would be allowed to stand dur
ing the present administration. But the
adjournment of the conference without
results has changed the face Of the silver
situation. The Sherman act was con-
fessed an experiment. 1t was hoped by
this means to sustain the commercial
value of silver until by international
agreed upon which would. permit the
free coinage Of silver without dropping
to q silver basis. Now that this hope
has disappeared there Is no apparentpur
posein continuing eur presentsilver policy.
II the United States continues to buy sill.
yer the nations of Europe will be no
more inclined to agree upon a common
ratio than they were in November. They
seem to be quite willing to take Ameri-
can gold for European silver, and will
probably not tire Of this policy while
the United States chooses to continue it.
A heroic method of treating this ques.
tion would be to quit buying silver and
to take measures to get back some Of the
gold Europe has drained us Of. Silver
would go down with a run, but its fall
would convince Europe that something
must he done. There would be present
loss in all countries, but in the end there
would be m arrangement Of some kind
for the reconciliation OF silver. The
alternative policy OF free silver coinage
woald throw the United States upon a
silver basis. with gold for sale as a COM
modity.-S. +. Call.
