UP TO A CERTAIN POINT

In the progress Of Consumption, Dr..
Pierces Golden Medical Discovery
Is a positive remedy. Even In the
most advanced cases, It gives CON-
fort and relief; and where other
medicines only relieve, this will
cure.
But delay Is dangerous, with Con-
sumption. In all the conditions
\ that lead to it, the Discovery" Is
. the remedy. With severe, lingering
Coughs or Weak Lungs, nothing
acts so promptly. Every disease
that can be reached through the
blood yields to this medicine. The
Scrofulous affection of the lungs
that's called Consumption Is one Of
them. For this, and for every other
form Of Scrofula, for oil blood taints
and disorders, and all chronic Bron-
chial, Throat, and Lung affections,
tho Discovery" Is the only remedy
40 certain that IL can be guaranteed.

An EXTENDED PROBITION.

In this fast age most occurrences are forgot
ten before they are old But il may possibly
be remembered that when Postmaster Dayton
woke up one afternoon in early June and found
himself famous he took n reporter into his con-
fidence almost before he got his eyes open and
with engaging candor confessed that he was
astounded at the news of his appointment. lie
compared himself in the matter of sudden dis
tinction to Lord Byron. declared that he knew
nothing whatsoever about postal matters. and
added that he should never have thought of
himself for the office 70 which he had been ap-
pointed. In welcoming the new Postmaster
with our habitual hospitality. we venturcd to
express the hope that President Cleveland knew
Mr.. Dayton better than Mr.. Dayton knew him
self and that Mr. Van Cott's successor would
even succeed in improving upon the record of
that Jealous and capable official
It now appears that Mr.. Dayton, in frankly
acknowledging that he had no acquaintance
with the duties upon which he was about to
enter merely anticipated the conclusion at
which the community was sure TO arrive EX-
perence and information compel lis 10 concedc
not only that he diagnosed his own case pretty
accurately six months ago. but that his progress
in knowledge during the interval which has
elapsed since his appointment has not been
absolutely dazzling. At the same time we are
not vindictive or even ccnsOrious If Mr. Day
ton feels that he is making headway and has
a reasonable hope of becoming Il tirSt-clasS post
master in the near future. we are perfectly
willing to give him time. In fact, in view of
the singular capacity for laundering which dis
tinguishcs the appointing power, we should
rather hate TO lose him and take the chances
of succession. So far rs we know, Mr.. Dayton.
though not an ideal postmaster, is Il good man.
II he is an offensive partisan he has kept the
fact to himself. II Is point in his favor that
he Is neither hot favoritc in Tammany Hall
nor an object Of Mugwump adulation. He ap-
pears TO be modest and assiduous. and we sin
cerely hope that he is steadily if slowly over
coming his early disadvantages
And go, on the whole though to our certain
knowledge more letters have been delayed and
gone altogether wrong than n few during his
administration we refuse for the present 10
withdraw completely and finally the assurance
of good will with which we treated his advent.
We prefer to give him @ little more rope In
the hope that he will not hang himself.

A STUPID BLCNDER.

The wholesale drygoods trade Of this town
has acted promptly upon the warning given
in these columns respecting the date for the
enforcement Of the new tariff scheme Resolu-
tions have been signed by all the houses in
favor Of change OF date. and an influential
delegation has been appointed to wait upon
the Committee OF Ways and Means. Similar
action will undoubtedly be taken by the whole
sale trade in Philadelphia. Boston Chicago,
San Francisco AMI other cities. Importers mcr-
chants and manufacturers are alike In revolt
against the enforcement of the new tarin on
March I. The announcement OF the date has
already involved cancellation Of large orders
for the spring and summer trade, and caused
general confusion and apprehension.
II was certainly most amazing exhibition Of
folly. recklcssncsS and ignorance on the part Of
Chairman Wilson and his colleagues To choose
deliberately date midway between business
seasons 4 clerk who had been employed for
six months in any drygoods house would have
known better than 10 make so stupid blundcr
The buying for the spring and summer trade
will be- done during January and February
With the prospect Of Il new tariff in operation
on March the dIygoodS business will be- great
" unsettled and damaged. The uncertainties
Of the situation will be- increased by the fact
that while March | Is the date named in the
BILL 1t is impossible for any merchant Ia fore
cast the length Of the debate in House and
Senate and the possible changes in the text.
The bill may not be- enacted until April or May,
and the date may have 10 he changed in con
sequence Of legislative delay. Meanwhile, the
trade Is left entirely in the dark. and Is not al
liberty to disregard the date mentioned by the
Committee Of Ways and Means
If Mr. Wilson and his colleagues had known
what they We're about, they would have named
July as thc date for putting the tariff scheme
in operation That would have been at the end
Of the season, and would not have intcrfcrcd
in any way with the spring and summer trade.
During July and August the buying will be-
done for the fall and winter, and importers.
merchants and manufacturers will have ample
time for adapting their business To new cOndi-
tions BY selecting March | the committee
have flung wet blanket over the spring and

ness into confusion. 1t Is almost incredible
that n body of experienced legislators could

not the proper persons to defend his Hawaiian
policy in the Senate Mr.. Gray. to be sure,
is a gentleman Of great ability. Everybody
says so and nobody doubts 1t. Mills also is n

was a spebndcr on this weary earth. ne is
that tuncful thing. But neither Gray. nor Mills.
nor Villas, nor indeed all three Of them put to-

TA1f1fANY'S TRADE FIFTH VICE.

If Is an encouraging circumstance that ram
MANY politicians are ceasing to describe Dr.
Parkhurst as a visionary and impractical man.
He Is no longer the object Of their contempt.
When his crusade against vice and those who
live by it and on it began. the shorthared gangs
wore nrodigiously amused Here was another
of those soulful roformcrs come to STAY dragons
with Il straw. But the straw began To grow
and harden and sharpen. and the arm that
wielded it became Objectionnbly muscular
There was a forcing open OF the dark piaces'
and by the flashlights of inquiry turned on
them the figures Of Tammany poltclans anu
Tammany policemen were seen, demanding
money as the price of blind eyes The char-
acter OF the attack on DR.. ParKhurst mas
changed as the destructive power OF his work
has increased. and he Is now pictured as
seeker after notoriety and bard-hearted Drute
who. In the language Of Tammanys new organ
"The New-York Times" is willing that poor
wretches should stnrve or freeze
These are symptoms Of panic, and palmer
one still is the shifting about Of the police
captains. This was an act Of open confessiop
Coming. as II did. on the heels Of the indict-
meut Of Captain Dcvery on proof Of flagrant
neglect of duty supplied by DR.. Parkhurst. 1t
yeiled. and. in yelling disclosed a scheme to
block his way to the securing OF evidence
against other precinct officers. II was n des-
pcablc Tammany trick, and it indicates the
methods 10 which resort will be had as the
movement TO expose Tammany's blackmailins
operations proceeds.
The extent Of these operations is immense.
II has been shown to our satisfaction that the
collections from pools sellers alone, before Taln-
many became a horscracng as we'll as politi-
cal institution amounted to at least S121'OoO.
The revenue from other gambling places Is GER
tajnlv not less while that derived from ais
orderly houses reaches enormous figures. This
cold -blooded llackmail, drawn, practically at
the pistols point for the liberation of crime,
is the chief means on which the Democratic
party. local. State and National, subsiss in
New-York. That party, as party, hves on lhe
proceeds Of vice. and owes its power 10 its sale
Of the privilege to defy the law. Every line in
the statute books forbidding that class of Of
fences generally described as social vice Is en-
p]oycd bv Tammany for itself and the Demo
cratic party as IA means of punder This Is the
reason why Ncw-York cannot be cleared OF
Illegal resorts, and it is the reason why agencies
for REFORM like Dr. Parkhurst's society, Will
have a difficult and tedious road 10 travel be-
fore their work is truly and permanently
effective.
