There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable
For a great many yaars doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure by local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be constitu-
tional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure manufactured by F. J..
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the market.
1t is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to teaspoonful. 1t acts di-
reilly on the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case it fails to
cure. Send for circulars and testimon-
ials. Address.

The Country Teachers Hard Lot.
Take the average Of the pay given
yrudgingly, in too many cases, to our
teachers, female and male alike, in the
purely country-districts of the United
States and Canada, and see how beg

dered, it appears. Go into the board
ing-houses of those same teachers, and
see how poor and ill-ftted, for support
ing mental work, is the fare afforded,
and then show me greater heroines in
their spheres. Where the salary paid is
SO uniformly wretched, tits hard to pay
large board bills.

A TEMPERANCE CONGRESS.

The International Temperance Con-
gress held a three days. meeting this
week in Prohibition Park on Staten
Island, where, tradition says, the first
brewery in the United States was es-
tablished. A great temperance army
assembled on this site on Sunday when
grand ovation was rendered Gen.
Neal Dow, the Father of Prohibi-
tion."
1t was remarkable meeting, in that
it brought together temperance reform
ers of every rank. There were more
than one thousand delegates, represent
ing every state and every temperance
organization in this country and Can
ada, and their object was to formulate
plan by which these temperance
forces could work IN union to accom-
plish one aim-to Danish the saloon.
It is very favorable sign for the
temperance cause when Third Party
Prohibitionists are willing to accept
any legislation against the liquor traffic
as better than none, and are ready to
forward any movement that has for its
object the weakening and final over
throw of the demon, Rum.
Gen. Neal Dow was the central figure
of this congress. Full of enthusiasm
for temperance reform, he was greeted
with a. mighty outburst of applause.
Although in his 91st year his eyes were
bright, his voice clear and strong and
his faculties unimpaired. He made an
eloquent address on "What prohibition
has has done for Maine,..' from which
we take the following extracts:
"This question of prohibition is, next
to mans obligation to God, the most
important question of to-day. Many
men of education and cultivation look
upon the principle of prohibition as an
impracticable one. They do not know
anything about it."
Continuing, General Dow said that
so far from being failure, prohibition
had been a wonderful success. 1t is
not an entire success, but will be later
on. 81 do not know how to account
for it, he said, ''that educated men
who sholld know and must know the
evils that result from the rum shop
still fail to sympathize with prohibition.
I have known of doctors of divinity,
eminent men, who have rejoiced over q
statement made in the newspapers de-
claring prohibition a failure. There
are no distilleries or breweries in the
State of Maine. There was time
when there were large importations of
West India rum, which was brought to
the seaports in large vessels. To-day
there is none, excepting a very little
that is quietly smuggled.
can entire generation has grown up
in that State without having to see a
grog shop or know the taste of rum.
In three-querters of our territory the
rum traffic is unknown.
"There are many good men and in
telligent men who declare that prohibi-
tion will never win. 1t will win, and |
can name the day. II is when the
Church wakes up from its lethargy;
when the christians Of this country say
so, the liquor traffic goes. A great
mauy excellent men object to carrying
this question into politics. They do
not understand that as political ques-
tion, aside from its social and moral
aspects, it is more important than any
other"

SOLD OUT TO THE TRUST.

The sugar schedule, as substituted
by the Finance Committee, has passed
the United States Senate, and that too,
in the face of the fact that the country
is in full possession of the know
ledge that the schedule was
framed in persuance Of one of the
most corrupt bargains, and selling out
Of the peoples rights and interests to.a
gigantic monopoly. That this schedule
was framed purposely and directly in
the interests of the sugar trust, no one
fails to recognize. The "Credit Mo-
bilier" scandal unearthed a rotten and
infamous transaction on the part of
many of those connected with the ad-
ministration Of the government at that
time. But this bargain and sale en-
tered into by the Senate Finance
Committee with the sugar trust, tram
scends in infamy, anything of like
character that has ever occurred in the
history of our government. After
waging a campaign in which the bat
tie cry was ''death to all protection .

try which a quarter of century of
protection has failed to place on a basis
where it could stand alone land was
therefore placed on the free list in the
Mckinley Billy and puts duty upon
the products of that industry in such a
way as TO turn near or quite fifty mil
lions of dollars into the Golfers of the
sugar trust. By the provision of the
Bill the trust is afforded an opportunity
to load up with sugar free of duty,
from now till 1895, after which time
the price can be advanced to cover the
duty, which of course will be done, and
the toiling masses of the nation CON-
PEELED to pay tribute to the sugar trust

lions of dollars. If any one wants to

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, June 9th, 1884,
The Democrat Senators already deeply
regret having allowed the two news
paper correspondents who declined to
tell the sources of the information they
published in connection with the sugar
trust scandal, to even stand chance Of
being indicted by the grand jury. The
correspondents would like nothing bet
ter than trial in court, which must
follow if they are indicted, as it would
enable them to have witnesses called
and made to talk who would make it
plain that their charges represented
only small part of the crookedness
which has been going on among Demo
Gratis, and who will never be called by
the investigating committee and some
of whom would refuse to answer ques-
tions for the committee if they were
called.

SENATOR GRAY's coroner jury" is
still sitting, and what a sit it is.
Middletown transcript., 1894-06-09

Even with the easy methods of the
investigating committee, which seems
to be largely dependent upon volunteer
testimony, the substantial facts in the
charges made by the newspaper men
have been shown to be true. Notwith-
standing the copious explanations with
which the admissions were accompan-
led, there is no getting around the fact
that Senator Mcpherson, of New Jer-
sey, s. eculated in sugar stock and made
money out of it; nor that the sugar
schedule in the present tariff bill was
mostly written by Secretary Carlisle.
These facts as well as that heavy Dem
ocratic influence was brought by agents
of the sugar to bear on Representative
Warner,of New York, to make him
stop working to have sugar put on the
free list have been testified to by the
men named. Senator Hills resolution
for open sessions of the committee has
stirred up the Senator, but it not pro-
bable that it will be passed. When the
Credit Mobiler scandal was being in
vestigated, more than twenty years age,
the Senate adopted resolution instruc-
ting the committee, which had been
working behind closed doors, to con-
duct the investigation openly, but that
is the only similar case known.
Senator Manderson, of Nebraska,
while making an earnest speech in favor
of the continuation of the sugar bounty
of the Mckinley law, used language
that should be- committed to memory
by every member of Congress, and
which was all the more striking because
it followed the cringing apology Of Sem
ator Blanchard, of Louisiana, for sup
porting the Wilson bill in the House
with its free sugar clause, and then af-
ter getting in the Senate demanding
protection for sugar as the price Of his
vote. Senator Manderson, after ex-
pressing the hope that the selfish Pro-
