GfR. EDITOR:-Tn a regular meeting
of Washington County Alliance, held
on Thursday April 18th, 1898, it was
unanimously
RtSo2red, That the act of the legiala
ture amending the charter Of the State
Alliance is the most cowardly and ty-
ranical ever passed by any legislature
in the history of our State, and is an
outrage and q stigma upon civil lib
erty.
9 That we regard it a sufficient
cause for an insult to every farmer in
the State.
The Secretary was requested to send
a copy of these resolutions 10 THE PRO
GREssIvE FARMER and Caucasian with
request to publish.

Edwin Booths condition.
thern Associated Press.

by Southern Associated freSS.
New York, April 24.-There was
no perceptible change in Edwin's
Booths condition this morning. DR..
Smith called on the patient at 1870
this morning and remained half an
hour. When Dr.. Smith came out
he said: Booths condition is the
same. He rested we'll all night
He takes nourishment naturally.
His head is clear, and he recognizes
his friends His speech is somewhat
affected and he does talk much. He
seems to realize his position, but
does not say much about it. The
case Is not necessarily fatal one,
but if Booth has another one of the
attacks he cannot possibly live
through it," DR.. Smith denied that
there had been any consultation of
physicians last night about Booth 8
case. Mrs Grossman, Booths
daughter, is with him constantly
and there are many callers this
morning.

A Disturbance

isn't what you want, if your stomach
and bowels are irregular That's about
all you get, though, with the ordinary
pill. 1t may relieve you for moment,
but you're usually in a worse state
afterwsrd than before
This is just where DR.. Pierce's Pleas
ant Pellets do most good. They act in
an easy and natural way, very different
from the huge, old-fashioned pills.
They're not only pleasanter, but there's
no reaction afterward, and their help
lasts. One little sugar-coated pellet for
gentle laxative or corrective-three
for a cathartic. Constipa ion, Indiges-
tion, Bilious Attacks, Dizziness, Sick
and Bilious Headaches, are promptly
relieved and cured.
They're the smallest the easiest to
take-and the cheapest or your money
| is returned.
! You pay only for the good you get.

ROME. April "a The official cir
Gle here understands that during
the interview yesterday between
Pope Leo and the German Emperor
the Pope and Emperor discussed
questions relating to the position of
the Roman Catholic church in Ger
many, and especially the attitude of
the members of the centre or cler-

icy. The Emperor's friendly con-
versation and his valuable gift of a
snuff box bearing his portrait sur
rounded with diamons, to Cardinal
Ledochowski, a prefect OF the Propa-
gands, was much commented upon.
Cardinal Ledochowski represents
the Vatican party, which favors the
triple alliance, as opposed to the
policy of Cardinal Rampolla, the
papal Secretary Of State, which il

ing is also regarded as making 8
fresh step towards the Cancellation

CleVelan0's Statement Inspires Conf
dence.
By Southern Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, D. c., April 24.-The
authoritative. statement of Mr.Cleve-
land yesterday in which he an
nounced the present and future
policy of the administration relative
to the use Of gold reserve, has taken
the edge off of the excitement that
followed the act of the Secretary of
the Treasury in dipping into the
reserve fund. If there has been any
danger of financial furry that dan
ger appears now to have passed.
Under the incorporation of
| Mr.. Cleveland's statement the
Eeserve is to be treated
simply as SO much cash in the
treasury, and whether aggregate
rises or falls few million per day,
becomes matter of little conse-
| quence; consequently very little in
terest was manifested today at the
Department in regard to the fnan-
cial situation. Some offers of gold
were received from the West and
accepted, and Treasurer Jordan, at
New York, it was reported. had also
recei Ied a considerable amount OF
gold certificates. Up to noon the
Treasury was not advised as to the
extent of gold shipments for to-
morrow.
Mr.. Leech, director of the United
States mint, recognized authority
on fnsnces, said today !: Il looA
3 upon the statement by the Presi
t dent as a plain and forcible an
nouncement of the determination o
t the administration to maintain golt
: payments at all hazards, and if tn
Q supply of gold at the disposal o
s the Treasury should at any time b
insufficient for the purpose, tina
the credit of the government wi
9 be used to secure the necessar
n amount. As such it will go lon
II way towards restoring confdenc
