Ex-senator Camden's Views.

Ex-senator Johnson n. Camden, of
West Virginia, who has, perhaps, done
more for the development of this State
than any other man, is now in New
York, and to an interviewer expressed
himself hopefully in regard to the bust
ness and financial outlook, particularly
in his own State. With the exception
of the Elkhorn region, he says wages
are advancing and a friendliness per-
vades the intercourse Of miners and
companies. The iron and steel manu-
facturers, he says, are beginning to
feel the effects of the universal busi-
ness improvement. Generally, wages
have been voluntarily advanced, and
the laboring population of the State is
more fully employed than it has been
for the past two years. Long-delayed
orders from railroads and builders
have been rushed in upon the manu-
facturers, with the result that many
of them are working overtime in order
to fill these orders. The iron and
steel mills of West Virginia and Penn
sylvania are doing an enormous bust
ness, and some of the companies are
having hard time to find cars enough
to transport their product. Il see no
reason to believe, continued Mr.. Cam
den, "that this Improvement in busi-
ness of all kinds will not keep on.
We are reaping the first financial fruits
of the Wilson bill. In my opinion
that measure is well calculated to give
this country the greatest prosperity.
The main difficulty with it is that it
has not been a law long enough for the
people to see for themselves how bene-
fetal it will be, and how much better
off the country will be because Of it. |
take no stock in the criticisms of our
political enemies that the law will not
yield enough revenue to meet the run
ming expenses of the government. y
Mr., Camden expressed the confident
belief that the Democratic party will
win next year on an honest money
platform.

b. JOHNSON, Pastor.

Last June Dick Crawford brought
his twelve-months-old child, suffering
from infantile diarrhpa, to me. 1t had
been weaned at four months old and
had always been sickly. | gave it the
usual treatment in such cases but with
out benefit. The child kept growing
thinner until it weighed but little more
than when born, or perhaps ten pounds.
l then started the father to giving
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Di-
arrhea Remedy. Before one bottle of
the % cent size had been used very
marked Improvement was seen and
its continued use cured the child. Its
weakness and puny constitution dis
appeared and its father and myself be-
lieye the child's life was saved by this
Remedy. IT MARROW, NJ. D., Tam

THE Republicans opposed tariff re-
form on the ground that high protec-
ton was necessary to keep the earnings
of our workingmen above those of the
"pauper labor" of Europe. Under
the Mckinley tariff wages went stead
lily down and under the slight degree
of tariff reform now in operation they
are steadily coming up. They further
asserted with groans and signs that
without high import duties our "home
market" would be stolen from us by
foreigners and our own manufacturers
ruined. The present tariff lowered
the duties on iron and steel consider
ably. Have our iron producers lost
the home market? On the contrary,
a thousand tons Of steel billets were
shipped from Ohio to England few
days ago; and a steady market is being
found abroad for southern pig iron. In
the face of these facts the Republican
leaders assert that the tariff is to be
the sole issue in the next campaign.
1.-THE whole category of possible politi-
cal issues were overhauled, none could
be found upon which we are in better
condition to meet them. When a once
great political party has become so
blindly infatuated with policy which
is obviously impossible, the time of its
entire disintegration cannot be far off
And while the Republicans are thus
giving evidence of approaching disso-
luton, the Democratic party is awaking
TO new life.

Asks YOUR attention TO the condition OF
the children of the very poor living in
the crowded streets and alleys Of our
city.
There is always to be found in the
present state of society class of people
whose living is entirely from hand to
mouth: whose best efforts in ordinarily
''easv times" can only meet the needs
of one dav at a time. without any posi-
bic margin for q rainy day, and to
such people scarcity of work, sickness,
accident to the brcad-winner, and all
the changes and chances of such life,
mean lapse into absolute want
The children of this claSS-many of
them delicate from want of intelligent
attention and proper food-have not
much chance to lay up happy memories.
Even when the hard fight is fought by
their parents-nothing wavering-there
is much work and little play. School
Gf they are SO fortunate rs 10 have the
time and the proper clothes), helping
mother, minding the perpetual baby,
intcrposed with picking up chips and
perhaps getting cinderS from the gar
bage dump for fire. with the Damocles'
sword Of hunger and cold, and possible
separation always just in sight, these
things leave little chance for the happy,
care-free childhood we feel to be their
brlhright.
And what can be said when the waters
of temptation have gone over the heads
of fathers and mothers and the weary
struggle has given place to indulgence
weak and weaked enough?
1t is for children whose physical, or
mental. or moral natures are starving
that we ask your help. We want them
to have fresh country air for the little
lungs. good country milk for the hungry
little bodies, new ideals of living for the
ready little minds to see and perhaps TO
try to initiate, and love and kindness TO
make happy memories in lives that may
have all too few bright days.
Can YOU spare two weeks out of your
comfortable, wcll-fed, prosperous fifty
two Of % to make one or two city poor
children happy and hearty for the win
ter Take those two weeks out some
where between June and September,
while the schools are closed and the al
leys and courts are basking and blister
ing in the midsummer sun, and let one
or two youngsters learn that flour
doesn't grow in bags or cherries in
crates: let them find out what fun it is
to fish in the brook for minnOwS, and to
get all scratched up after blackberrieS.
Don't expect them to be too good. Prob
ably they will aston'iSh you a little by
some of their ways; but remember that
the worse they are the more they need
you. Please ask for a bad one and love
him into goodness. They may be home
sick. even for their wretched homes;
but cake has been found sovereign
remedy for this disease. They may be
ungrateful, but they can but be helped,
and that, after all. is what we want.
Shall we send you boys or girls-one
or two? What age? When can you let
them come? Or. would you rather ar
range with your friends and take party
of ten or twenty? Let us hear about it.
