The Return to prOsDerity,

tImancntly toward prosperity? Hon.
Vorthington G, Ford, chief Of the United
States bureau Of statistics, thinks it has,

Review. He says that in the history If
this country 1894 will BE- known Az the
panic year; 1885, will mark the turn
ing Of the tide from depression toward
prosperity, absolute rs well as coulpara-

for as to recover from the panic Of 1878,
but this time he is sur\ the return to
prosperity Will be much more rapid.

characteristic Of the American people to
hold SO close to q respect of individual
opinion and right that it submits to
abuses of privilege with a patience that
might mislead imperfect students of
character into the belief in the careless
Indifference of the public. This spirit of
lenlty, of tolerance, may sometimes extend
to the verge of indulgent weakness, but
it never goes to the extreme Of submis-
sion to persistent outrage.

mighty in anger, and when 1t sets about
the correction of evil and the punishment
of wrong it leaves no means omitted to
the thorough accomplishm ent Of its pur-
pose The theory of the Republic is
equality of rights to all under the law and
responsibility of all to the law, and that
when we wisely consider of It, is the es-
sential idea in the celebration of the
Fourth of July as a time of national
Jubilee. This Fourth of July finds a
large fraction of the minority in open and
aggressive rebellion against the written
law of the nation and the common rights
of the people; and yet throughout the
L nion the day will be celebrated as sioy-
fully and as confidently as ever before it
was, for the reason that the American
people feel perfectly assured that the
present disorder will be adjusted COM
pletely to the principle that the majority
shall rule and the minority shall obey, as
disorders of great or small dimensions
have been from the foundation of the
Republic.
Temporary advantage may deceive the
minority into the belief that it is a domip-
ant and deciding power, but any advant-
age a lawless minority may gain can be
of but temporary duration, and in the
reaction the minority shall suffer in pro-
portion to the gravity of it's mistake.

Mr.. Cievelsnds Collection of Letters.
In the matter Of letters from people
Of prominence all over the United
States Mrs. Cleveland has about as val
liable collection as is to be found
Probably after the close of the present
administration Mrs. Cleveland will car
ry into execution long cherished plans
and have all these letters compiled into
a series of volumes. Many Of the letters
date back to when it first came to be
whispered that she was to wed the pres
ident. Then there are the letters re-
ceived with the wedding presents, that
of themselves make valued collection
Of autographs. Some idea of the extent
to which personal correspondence can
accumulate in this respect is told by
Mrs. Cleveland in regard to her expert
ence during the years Of the first Cleve-
land administration. Those Of the let
ters received that were of purely person
al character from her friends were al
ways kept, until finally six immense
Saratoga trunks were filled. When prep
arations for the removal of the president
and his wife to New York were started,
Mrs Cleveland found task that could
not be delegated to any clerk or maid.

The meat diet of this country is one OF the
great influences that makes men rush
over each other in such wanton thougtless-
ness. Once wean the people from eating
meat and they will become more gentle
and refined, and reforms-moral, social
and political, will come easy and
naturally. Since the devils took posses

Ins1ualitz Of local Taxation.

The Inequality of local taxation in
Pennsylvania is most effectively shown
by comprehensive statistical statement
which Secretary Edge, ofthe state board
of agriculture. has prepared for the in
formation al the legislature. During the
year Just closed Secretary Edge obtained
from various reliable sources the full
value OF l., ,7i9 farms in the state for the
purpose Of obtaining the actual mill rate
upon actual values.
The estimated actual values in all cases
were obtained fran persons entirely IA
miliar with the farms included in the
statement and are supposed to represent
their actual cash value at bona fide sale.
The mill rates were obtained from the
commissioners of the serveral counties
and the township authorities i'm order To
assure entire accuracy. No attention was
paid to assessed values, except 80 far "a
they furnished the mill rates. The
investigation shows that in many conn
ties. and even in many townships, the
assessment was very unequal. This in
equality existed 10 such an extent In one

SHANDAKEN, y. Y.-One of the
most prominent men in Ulster county
is the Hon. Davis Whine, of this town.
His reputation is not confined alone to
this county, where he held the office Of
Sheriff for three years, he was also the
districts representative in the New
York State Legislature. For years Mr..
Winnie has been suffering from "A COM
plie:.;ed ease Of kidney and bladder
trouble and congestion of the liver.
Upon the advice of friends he decided
to try DIR. Kennedy's Favorite Rene
dy. He was not disappointed, for in a
short while after he began its use, he
was in better health than he had been
in years before.
In speaking OF Favorite Remedy,
Mr.. Whine said: at has done more for

ployed, and | most unhesitatingly rec
ommend it Ia any one suffering from
kidney, liver or urinary troubles, for it
will cure them.
DIR. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy is
the acknowledged specific for all dis
eases arising from acidity of the blood,
and will cure dyspepsia, rheumatism,
scrofula, eczema, kidney, liver and

only slow suicide. Accept the aid of
DIR. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy; it
has restored thousands TO health and

HOW SOAP CLEANSES.
Chemical Properties Which Operate
in the Removal of Dirt.

Most persons have very indistinct
ideas of the manner in which soap acts
in removing dirt. This is not 50 sim
PIE matter a. il may seem, for even
chemists have been more or less puZ-
zied by it; although there is now sub
stantial agreement among them as TO
the chemistry of the process. One Of
the explanations Of the cleansing ac-
ton Of soap Is due TO a suggestion
made made by no less famous a man of
science than Prof W. Stanley JevOns.
II is generally considered that the efli-
cacy of soap depends mainly upon its
decomposition, when it is mixed with
water, into an aIkali and Il fatty acid.
The alkali thus set free dissolves the
grease by which the dirt is attached to
The surface to be cleaned, and the wa
ter then carries the dirt off. But this
j. not all; the fatty acid from the soap
neutralizcs any free alkali remaining
after the loosening of the Cirt, and
thus prevents the alkali from attack
ing the cleansed surface itself.
This Is very important when soap is
applied to the skin, and the painful ef
fects produced by some varieties Of
soap are due to the fact that they pos
scSs an excess Of free alkali, more than
tla fatty acids can II utralize.
Bat there are other factors concerned
in the action Of soap. Its cohesive
power, upon which the formation of
soap bubbles and lather depends, ena-
bles it 10 gather up the dirt as it is loos-
enad by the aikali. Then, too, the
process is assisted 10y the curious prop
er,y which soap possesses of producing
a great agitation among solid particles
suspended in water.
This, of course, tends TO the ready
removal of the dirt after it has been
detached from the surface, and it is
this action that Prof. JevOns has point
ed out as being one Of the elements of
the cleansing power of the soap
T0Utb's COmpGHion.
