PRESS COMMENT.

Under President Harrison's admin
istration duck shooting was legiti-
mate and delightful recreation for an
overworked official; under President
Cleveland's administration it is an
offense so heinous that one wonders
that resolutions of impeachment
have not been introduced into the
House of Representatives by some
jealous patriot.-[The Outlook.
Congressman Powers of Vermont
asks for the repeal of a section of the
Revised Statutes which provides for
docking members of Congress when
absent during a session for some
other cause than sickness. 1t might
as well be repealed, for it is not en-
forced. If it had been, the govern
ment would be richer by many dol
lars Springfield Republican.

VIEWS OF THE "WOMAN'S BIBLE"

The book compiled from passages
of scripture, with comments thereon
by the various lady editors, which
bears the title quoted above, has
has not won much commendation
From extracts we have seen it APP
pears to us to be the most harmful
thing yet placed in the way of wo-
mans advancement and truest good.
Comment from the most reputable
quarters has been very severe against
this disparagement of the Bible and
the general opinion is that the perpe-
traitors have hit their own cause very
hard. The old Bible, thank God, is
still good enough for our best women
and they will continue to draw help
comfort and inspiration from its
pages to help them over the rough
places in life.

NEW ENGLAND FOR REED.

There is warm recognition of
the character and services OF all the
eminent republicans whose names
are likely to be presented tor nomi-
nation before the assembled represen-
tatives of the party at St. Louis next
June. There is no lack OF apprecia-
ton of the ability of any and all the
great leaders OF the party, in every
New England state, but if New Eng
land is to count for what she should
in that convention, let the delegates

Of New England stand together, earn
est, active, vigilant, aggressive TOR a
New England candidate. - LSt. AL
bans Messenger.
This from the St. Adams paper IS a
fitting declaration New England 5
candidate. Speaker Reed. This
statesman is a product Of New Eng
land soil, and it is eminently proper
that New England should send a
solid delegation to st. Louis to vote
through thick and thin for the man
from Maine. The support OF Mr..
Reed is very energetic in its charac-
ter and extends throughout the
United States. AT the recent meeting
OF the national committee men at
Washington it was found that Reed
was gaining strength all through
the South and that even Pennsyl-
vania was likely to be solid for him.
The Washington Star has published
an interview with a gentleman who
has been active at every republican
convention since Abraham Lincoln
was nominated, and the result OF his
observation are as follows:
"Mr. Reeds strength exceeds the
expectation of his most enthusiastic
friends. The story about any defec-
tons from Mr.. Reed in New England
which will have any practical effect
upon the convention are idle. Mr..
Reed will have practically the united
and the hearty support of New Eng
land delegates, not only for the
first, but for the second and all other
ballots. Mr.. Reed is also unques-
tionahly the original choice of the
leading republicans of New York,
who control the choice of delegates
to the national convention, and their
choice will be conclusive so soon as
the candidacy of Governor Morton,
which the leading republicans in
New York consider impracticable,
shall have been disposed of.
II happen to know that Thomas
c. Platt favors Mr.. Reed. In Penn
sylvania the indications are that Mr..
Reed will have large majority of
the candidates on the first choice,
and Pennsylvania has way Of vot
ing in the end as unit. The most
unexpected strength of Mr.. Reed
comes from the Southern states.
This support is unsolicited, enthusi-
astic and voluntary. Take Alabama
for instance, which was so aggres-
sively for Harrison. The Alabama
men say now that the delegates of
that state to the national conven-
ton will favor Mr.. Reed.
"In Louisiana the indications are
that the delegation will be unani-
nous for Mr.. Reed. The delegation
from that state to the national con-
vention has always been controlled
by ex-senator William Pitt Kellogg
and by ex-senator Pinchback. Both
of these gentlemen are now here.
They are both active, enthusiastic
and aggressive for the nomination OF
Mr.. Reed. Moreover, movement
has already been inaugurated in that
state, which is likely to be successful,
which will set in motion the activi-
ties for Mr.. Reed at an early day
1t is the purpose of the republican
leaders to choose the delegates to
the national convention from Louisi
ana in January next, and to have
them instructed for Mr.. Reed. | AN
informed that this plan is certain tc
succeed, and that the choice of these
delegates may be regarded as the sig
nal gun in Mr. Reeds campaign"

SOME EFFECTS OF THE MESA GE

Whatever war scare the Presidents
message on Venezuela caused, there
has been a universal expression OF
opinion all over the country in favor
of peace. Indeed, as one reads the
message over there is very little en-
enlargement for war. The mes
sage is grand document and lays
down great principles, but there is
no need of all the war talk that we
have had in some of thepapers. The
president has informed the nations
of Europe, particularly England,
that America belongs to Americans
and England has already discovered
that this message is not for political
effect, but was serious state docu-
ment.
The first effect of the message was
to cause a panic in the stock market
and last Friday was the worst day
ION change" that this country has
seen since the failure of the London
house of Barring Brothers in 1890.
Brokers tumbled over each other
Friday and Saturday selling stocks,
and orders came in from London and
Amsterdam to sell American seCurl-
ties faster than the orders could be
filled. All the stocks dropped at
least $40 a share and some went
much lower than 10 points. That
this was purely bluff on England's
part was clearly shown the first of
the week when orders came from the
same foreign bankers to buy back
the same stocks they had been so
anxious to sell two days before.
Another effect of the presidents
message has been to direct public at.
tention to the lack of coast defences
near our great cities. Congressman
Grout intended to remedy this defect
when he introduced into the House a
bill appropriating $100,00O,000 for
coast defences. In the Senate the
same day Senator Proctor introduced
a resolution calling upon the secre
tary of war for a statement of the
condition and extent of the coast de
fences in the United States and also
to state the amount of money avail
able for such works.
Gen. CIRCUITS bill ought to pass, a
our great cities are now at the mere,
OF foreign warships should our rela
tions with any foreign countr,
become strained.
The great effect of the message wa
to stimulate patriotism Throughout
the length and breadth of the land
The powers of Europe were startle,
by the tone of the message because i
had none of the platitudes of diplc
macy. If the foreign nations tina
are now watching Turkey could b
inspired by the same courage tha
inspired President Cleveland the Al
menian outrages would stop in 2
hours and the sultan would be d,
throned. The American citizen b,
lieves in fair play and he wants to st
fair play between great nation an
a weak one. He also loves to S,
what the Yankees call sand" an
in the presidents message he sa
this attribute OF our national cha
acter to marked and commendab
degree.

Few people know that all plants con-
tain digestive principles. They cannot
absorb their food until it is digested any
more than animals can. The Mount Leb
anon Shakers have learned the art OF ex
tracing and utilizing these digestive
principles, and it is for this reason that
their Shaker Digestive Cordial is meeting
with such phenomenal success in the treat
ment of dyspepsia. The Shaker Digestive
Cordial not only contains food already
digested, but it also contains digestive
principles which aid the digestion ofother
foods that may be eaten with it. A single
10 cent sample bottle will be sufficient to
demonstrate its value, and we suggest
that every suffering dyspeptic make a
trial oft. Any druggist can supply it.

Secretary OIney is generally credit
ed with the authorship of the Venez-
uelan message. The message wasan
able document, and whoever wrote
it was well posted on international
law. Mr. Olney is Boston lawyer,
and one Of the greatest corporation
lawyers in the United States He
would make a strong candidate for
president il President Cleveland is
sensible enough not to desire third
