NEWS AND NOTES.


I'm an editorial headed enc
Kinley's Business Faculty." the
Chicago Herald remarks that zone
would expect to find a thoroughly
practical business man at the head
of the practical business party of
protection" Permit us to observe
that one would expect 'to find a
thoroughly practical business man
at the head of the practical bust
ness party" of free trade, but as a
matter of fact Richard Golden be-
came so involved in financial diff
culties during his anti-Corn Law
crusade that purse Of $4,000 was
raised by his friends to relieve his
pecuniary distress.
Don't delay; always he on time, for
prevention is better than cure. All
coughs and colds and such affections of
the throat and lungs as lead to consump-
ton, are cured by DIR. Bulls Cough
Syrup.
Because there are 2100 miles of
water between San Francisco and
Honolulu is not a valid argument
against annexation. There are
more than 2100 miles of land be-
tween New York and San Francis
co, and the early journeys across
the plains were infinitely more te-
dious and dangerous than the trip
to the Sandwich Islands.

The Troy Times says: Expert
ence teaches that women most to be
depended upon for right action will
not in any great numbers give at
tention to the elections or make
their presence felt at the polls. On
the other hand, the lower elements
among the women, just as among
men, are always ready for active
service on election days under the
direction of whatever influence may
at the time appeal to them the most
strongly. The trouble with the
whole woman suffrage movement,
and the one which more than any
thing else delays the coming of the
time when women shall vote, is the
indifference of so many of the bet
ter classes among the women them
selves. In the West, where oondi--
lions bring the women into more
direct contact with business and
political life, the feminine ballot has
made some progress. But in the
East the great body of women have
a positive distaste for participation
in politics, and refuse to exercise
the voting privilege where it is &C
corded them. They are content to
use their influence upon their
fathers and brothers and husbands,
rightly feeling that thus they WELD
a powerful influence upon political
affairs.
Men who for years have been suffering
with a distressing affection of the back

The Troy Press says: At Union
Spring, N. Y, a novel experiment
has been made in controlling the
liquor traffic. A committee of citi-
zens, properly authorized, have
taken entire charge of the business,
and they include the Protestant
Episcopal and Roman Catholic cler-
gymen. Sales are to be made only
in compliance with the following
regulations 1--WE will allow no
man to pay for another mans
drink. We will permit no drunk
enness, nor any approach to it. We
will allow no one apparently under
the legal age within our doors. We
will sell to no man if by the proper
persons we are forbidden so to do.
To certain other persons, their
names to be passed upon by ma
jority of the committee, we will not
sell at all. We will not sell spirits
in larger quantities than single
glass, except on physicians or
der, and of all such sales we will
keep a record. These and such
other wholesome rules as from time
to time we may deem desirable, we
will enforce. Our entire profits,
