THE OPEN SWITCH
<y EsrABLIsHED SAFEGUARD.

~ LSI4BLlSnLD S4fEtCAAD.
ANYBODY who travels by cars knows what
Is meant by an open switch" Ii is the
terror Of railroad men, and the dread Of the
traveller Its yictims-killed, horribly man
gled or MANNED for life-are numbered by
the score each year.
Yeteven the dreaded open switch is not
so widely fatal rs is a certain disease, which,
withou, ceasing its activity for an instant, is
daily filling hundreds Of graves
What is that terrible ailment? you ask.
II is Heart Discasci "But," YOU reply, con-
6denily, ~ haven't any heart disease-my
heart Is all right" Are Won SURE?
DR. Franklin Miles, Of Elkhart, Ind, the
distinguished specialist in diseases OF the
heart and nervous system, states that disor-
ders OF the heart are as common rs those OF
the lungs, liver, stomach. bowels or kidneys,
though often unsuspected. The reason peo-
pie are not aware OF this important fact is
because symptoms Of heart disease are not
usually recognized as proceeding from this
organ, but are attributed 10 some other
source. II you have shortuess Of breath,
futtering or palpitation, pain or tenderness
in left breast, shoulder or side, oppressed or
choking sensation, fainting or smothering
spells, yoar heart Is affected.
+" had been troubled with heart disease
for years. My left pulsewas very weak, could
at times scarcely feel il, excitement would
weaken my nerves and heart, and fear Of
impending death stared me in the face for
hours. Or. Miles, RerUne and New Heart
Cure are the only mcdicinesthat have proved
ofany benefit and cured me. IL. VI. DYER,
Cloyersiale, Nd.
my wife has been taking DR.. Miles Neu
Cure for ric Heart She thinks itwonderful.
She has not been troubled with pain or
smoihering spells since using it. We have
also used DR.. Miles Pills, and we find them
all they are claimed TO be."-GEO. l. FINK,
Philadelphia, Pa.
These and hundreds of similar testimo-
mails are convincing proofs Of the wonderful
powers Of DR.. Mics Nee Cure for re Hcart.

rangements to protect themselves, and
the first meeting was burlesqued by the
2. z. just as it burlesQued the murder
of poor Herda until the GLOBE rebuked
its shameless heartIessness.
The GLOBE has not had a political
thought in its comments on the imbe-
cility of the administration. Mayor
Wright is so politically dead that Ga
briefs horn, charged with million
volts Of electricity, could not awake him
to political life. He is too small game
for great newspaper to pursue with
political OF any other ends in view, save
the public welfare.
The GLOBE has demanded and will
continue TO demand his resignation as a
public necessity, and in the interest of
and for the protection of our citizens.
lie is not wicked man, but he is in
competent. The city should not be
turned over to the lawless classes lest it
might wound the feelings OF the mayor
to tell him he is not competent for the
position he holds.
The crocodile tears of the p. 2. over
the course of the GLOBE do not deceive
any one. If the P. p. is really DESTROYS
of benefitlng the city and securing
safety and protection for our citizens, it
will join with the GLOBE in demanding
Mayor Wright's resignation.
If that event should occur it might
prevent the p. p. cracking its jokes
over the commission Of murders by pre-
venting such events.
The problem of the hour is-When
WILL Mayor Wright resign?

YESTERDAYS ELECTIONS.

The Republican party has for years
been sowing the seeds of pernicious
system of finance and taxation. 1t has
fallen to the lot of the Democracy to
reap the harvest of disaster.
1t was the expected that happened at
the elections yesterday. When the
Democracy won at the presidential cleo
ton last year it was confronted by
bankrupt treasury, currency diShon-
ored at home and abroad, burden of
taxation grievous to be borne. The
party had promised to reform the cur
rency and the tariff, bnt ere the first
steps to that end could ibe taken a great
financial storm had burst upon the coun-
try. The wheels of industry ceased to
revolve, the sails of the ships OF COM
MERGE tapped idly at their moorings,
and trade was paralyZed. 1t was not a
sudden shock, but the elimination of
conditions long existing, for which the
Democrats were not Sponsible-the
development of a disease whose poison
had been already widely disseminated
through the nerves and tissues of our
economic system. No human power
could have longer delayed its outward
manifestations. They would have cul-
minated in the same manner if the Re-
publicans had won the battle OF Novem-
Der last.
1t is natural for the masses of the peo
pie to accuse the party in power of re-
sponsibility for events that transpire
during its ascendency, even though the
causes OF these events may reach far
back into the past. There are compare
lively few who trace results to their
cause. They DO not reason; they reach
conclusions prompted by the i'm
pulse of the moment. When the
