KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
tie needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
hHhefcial properties OF a perfect lax
ative; eaectually cleansing the system
dspelling colds, headaches and feyers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession because it acts on the Kid

ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.

ply in the negative.
Not a man questioned seems to
have as yet evolved any plan for COM
promise in the senate, and those
favoring repeal will not concede that
there will be any compromise. Those
who are opposed to unconditional re-
peal and favor silver are also in doubt
about what will be done, except
some of the extreme silver men like
Stewart, Jones, Woolcot and Teller,
who emphaticaIly assert that a re-
peal proposition can never be sue

What Stewart and Jones Say.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30. = Senator
Stewart is undismayed by the result
Of the vote in the house, and thinks
it will have absolutely no effect upon
the vote in the Senate. NO, SIR
said he; "the vote of the house was
expected by any one conversant with
the methods that were brought to
bear upon the members of that body.
The vote there will cause no change
in the senate. The only thing we
have to fear here is the use Of that
powerful persuader, federal n2tron-
age, backed by a strong force # the
administration.
at is all nonsense to talk cf any
compromise being offered bg the anti
silver men, or any concessions being
granted. The gold bugs are making
desperate fight, one in which they
neither ask, nor will they receive
quarter. Emboldened by the vote
in the house they blindly imagine
they have everything all their own
way here, and propose to push things
with high hand. The silver men
are ready for the contest, and | will
stake my reputation upon the pre-
diction that the repeal bill viii never
pass
Senator Jones said 'Ofcne thing
/ am quite certain, and that is that
/ these gentlemen who expect to see
the Sherman act repealed within the
next few days, or even weeks, are
doomed to keen disappointment.
The silver producing states are too
deeply concerned in this matter to
thus easily give way before the as
saults OF the gold men. If the senate
intends to kill these Western states
we intend that there shall be 1.-TWO pail
bearers for each victim. For that
reason we propose that the three
states now represented by but one
senator snail nave TWO.
"The senate by its action in the
Mantle case has said it will not admit
senators appointed by the governors
of states, and it must necessarily fol-
low that the legislatures of those
states must elect. We do not intend
that these states shall be deprived OF
their vote on this all important ques
ton, and there can be no vote taken
in the senate until those legislatures
meet and send duly accredited sena-
tors here. There will be no speedy
action by the senate, and vote. when
finally taken, will only be after the
most deliberate debate"

THE TELEGRAPH POLE TAX.

The decision of the United States
supreme court that city has a right
to tax telegraph and other companies
rent for the use of it's streets for the
erection of its poles, seems likely to
add source for large revenue to the
larger cities at least, unless, when the
full text of the decision is made
known unless there should happen to
be some provision IN the ordinance
upon which the decision is founded,
which would limit it in its applica
tion, which is not likely. The case
was carried up from st. Louis where
the city council passed an ordinance
recurring the Western Union Tele-
graph Co. to pay into the municipal
treasury S. year for each of its poles
in the city limits. The court did not
pass upon the reasonableness of the
tax, but limited the scope of its decis-
ion simply to the question as to
whether the city had the right to I'M
pose such tax or not. The court
states that this charge is not in the
nature of license fee, but OF rental
| for the use of the street by such cor
poration, as there is nothing in the
charter of such company eXempting 1T
from such taxation, and that the city
has as much right to charge a rental
for it's streets as for room in its city
hall. If this reports correct it rec,
ogniZes the fact that public street
+ is for the use of the public convent
ence in travel, and that corporations
can not take possession of 1T for their
particular benefit without paying
a rental therefor. The rate OF So pei
pole may be excessive, if so the com
pany can get relief. and have the sun
reduce d to a reasonable rate through
the medium of the courts. If the full
decision shall bear out the report
which has been made of it, it vii
prove a great victory for the people
and marks the day when corporations
must cease to over ride rough shoe
their rights, for it will apply not onl.
to the telegraph companies. but to al
other corporations which make use 0
the public highways to carry on thei
i business. q

1t is further stated that this amount
will probably be increased to $1O,OOO,-

ing down and the money market is con
siderable easier than it was earlier in
the week. 1t is said that the Secre'
tary has decided not to issue bonds

instead. The whole question will
probably come up at the next cabinet
meeting, however, for discussion, and
the question as to bond issue, def
nitely decided upon.

r1UST SHARE THE BURDEN.

The ST. Paul Globe gets off the old
refrain that the appropriations of the
last congress could not be cut down
any below what the previous congress
made because that congress, it says,
entered into contracts calling for
large permanent appropriations for
about everything it could think of,
and that the enterprises which it en-
tered into had to be carried out. 1t
further states that the Democrats
having control Of Congress, some of
appropriations can be repealed, and
more economic methods enforced.
This is very fine story to tell for the
purpose Of shifting from Democratic
shoulders the responsibilities OF the
large appropriations made, after the
howl which was made over the
amount appropriated by the previous
Republican congress, and it might
serve to some purpose had the Demo-
cratic house made an honest attempt
in the line of economy SO much talk
ed about. But it did not. 1t raised
no protest in the shape Of bill to re-
peal any legislation demanding a So
called useless and extravagant apprO-
priation. 1t did offer few amend
ments calculated to cut down eX-
penses, which were in line with that
which cut off the. allowance of soap
for the boys at West Point. But
where they cut down a pittance in
one place, they added thousands in
another. There was no call by any
Republican legislation which,
ed the clause giving each member Of
congress a private secretary, at a
total expense of about half million
dollars. In fact the Republican pred
ecessor of the last house refused any
such luxury at the expense Of the
public. Doubtless there are other
Just such items where Democracy
could have effected a saving had it
been as economically disposed as it
pretends to be. There is no shifting of
the burden of responsibility If the
appropriations have been needleSsly
extravagant as general thing, which
the FREE PRESS does not believe, the
Democrats must share the RESPONSE
bility with the Republicans, and they
lost the chance to shift this response
) biiity when they failed to make a
formal protest in the shape of re-
peal Of those laws which they have at
times declared called for this eXtrav-
j dU3nre

Gov. NELSON has vetoed his first
bill-that for increasing the edition
of legislative manuals. His objections
were based on the ground that the ex-
pense was too largely increased and
the method of distribution not equit-
able. He called attention to the fact
that, while the bill gave the members
of the legislature thirtY-two copies
each, it only allowed the state officers
six copies and left very limited num-
Der with the secretary of state for eX-
change. The veto was sustained by
the senate by vote of 80 to IA, it re.

WITHOUT FOUNDATION.

Commenting upon the report of the
committee appointed to investigate
to charges of cruelty preferred against
the management of the ST. Cloud re-
formatory, the ST. Paul Neaos says:
The testimony shows that in the
entire history of the reformatory but
six cases of corporal punishment have
transpired. The instrument of pun
ishment was a soft leather strap. In
one case six blows were given, in an
other 5, in two cases each, in one 3,
and in one blows. One of the Gull
pritS was "a years of age, two were Is,
two IL aid one Is. In no case was the
whipping brutal and was noC resorted
to until other discipline haO failed to
correct INSTRUMENTATION.
This evidence establishes that the
newspaper charges against the re-
formatory were malicious. All testi-
mony goes to show that the manage
ment is humane and discreet. Had
there been any foundation for the
mendacious statements the Legislative
committee would have discovered it,
but they say that the refOrmatory is
well managed and credit to the
state.
The methods of discipline which
are used are delegated to the Superin
tendent by the legislature, and cor
pOral punishment is one of them. The
legislature may decide whether or not
it will be well to continue it or not, as
a matter of their own judgement. II
is somewhat dangerous power tC
confer, but that power has not beer
abused at st. Cloud but on the Other
hand, leniently used when deemed
necessary at all.

THE TREATY WITHDRAWN.

Saturday President Cleveland sent
a message to the senate withdrawing
the Hawaiian treaty which was sent
to that body a few weeks ago by Presi-
dent Harrison. 1t was not accom-
panied by any note of explanation, so
that people are left to infer what they
please. The Republican senators look
upon the move as sort of opposition
to annexation. The Democratic sena-
tors are somewhat divided in their
opinions, some taking it to be against
annexation or American domination
of any kind. while Others think it SIM
ply means that he will send in another
treaty of his own liking.
In regard to the annexation Ques-
tion it is said that Secretary Gresham
does not favor the adoption of a
treatyOf annexation, until commit
tee has visited the islands and viewed
the situation, and it is reported that
acting on his suggestion the President
will recommend that senate com
mittee visit Hawaii during the sum
mer and1ook over the field, and that
in the meantime treaty be prepared
to be presented to the senate for con
sideration next December. The an
neXation of the islands is matter O.
such Importance that it is not proba
BILE it will cast one side by the admin
istration without a most thorough
consideration.

If the report which comes from
Washington and New York that
President Cleveland has decided to
establish new rule and not appoint
to Office any men who are to addicted
to drinking, the CONSERVATION in
Democracy will be widespr. ad. The
statement comes from leading DEM
ocrat in New York. He says that
Mr.. Cleveland "has discovered that
it is growing to be the fashion not to
drink; that the men who do not drink
are the men who do the greatest
things in the worlds affairs. He has
discovered the value in commercial
and in business life of the men who
do not drink. He knows that there
are some railroad companies who will
not employ a man in any capacity
who drinks at any time: that no rail
road company will permit it's en-
ployes to drink during the hours OF
service. and that the value Of man
who does not drink is each year in
creasing in this country" No one
will question but that this is rule
that ought to be applied to the public
service and would result in great
improvement therein. Some o. the
Democratic papers in discussing
this new and unexpected phase &C
knowledge that some rule OF this
kind ought to be enforcrd, and feal
there is danger of its being to strictly
applied, but think, however, that as
Grover Cleyelandsis neither a Prohi
bitionist not teetotlar, but likes his
"whiskey straight" he will not de
priye scores of the faithful from en-
joying the spoils of victory because
they like to indulge in nip.
