The old man who looks out at the
world with clear and healthy eyes can
not help feeling great qualification at
the thought that his children have in
herited from him no weakness nor ten
dency 10 disease. The healthy old man
is the man who has throughout his lift
kept his digestion good and his blood
pure. Not one in thousand does do It.
Germs go through the healthy body
without effect. Let them once find
lodgment or let them find a weak spot.
they will develop by the million and
the blood will be full of them. Instead
Of giving strength to the tissues, It
will force upon them innutritious mat
ter, and the man will lose flesh and the
more susceptible he is to disease. Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is
the only medicine that absolutely and
lnfallibly cures all blood diseases, and
almost all diseases are blood diseases.
1t isn't medicine for some one par
ticular so-called disease. 1t is a med
icine for the whole body 1t forces out
all the germs Of disease, and replaces
impurities with rich, red blood.

After calling attention 70 the fact
that deficiency has existed from
month to month for more than three
years and that the deficit this year will
be about ssO.OOO,OOO. senator Allison
says:
Therefore, it is. in my opinion. the
obvious and pressing duty of congress
without delay to provide additional rev.
enue TO meet current expenses. and it is
no excuse for this congress to postpone
this duty because another may be con-
yened four months hence The obiiga-
tion rests upon the senate. This
bill is pending in the senate, and can
be taken up at any time by a majority
vote and amended II not satisfactory

temporary measure, to bridge over a

fected. more permanent in its character.

The preparations being made for the
forwarding Of the interests Of Astoria
in the near future cannot fail 10 be
commended by every business man and
property owner in the city. There can
be no question but that a great deal OF
important work can be accomplished
during this winter When Mr.. Ham
mond arrives he will doubtless outline
some of his future policies, but whether
he does or not, those who are near TO
him are well aware that many import
ant industries as collateral issues TO
the building Of the railroad will be
carried through. 1t matters little just
when the railroad itself will be flush
ed, because 1t must be completed with
in the contract time. The growing time
Of the city is during the construction
period of the road. and the long-sighted
property owners are beginning TO real
ize this fact. A number have already
completed their plans and have begun
to push forward their interests. This
is particularly evident in the move
ments being made at Flavel and War
renton. That there will be a heary
cooperation with Mr.. Hammond in
whatever his plans may be for outside
development. goes without saying.

administration. Whether this act OF re-
taliation is consistent with wise ma
tional policy or is justified by the gov
ernmental determinations and embar-
goes placed upon our exports by the
German nation is question that can
be answered best after a careful con-
sideration OF the causes Cor Germany's
uutrieudly attitude,
Ii is a matter OF common knowledge
among those who take the trouble to
keep posted on our export trade that
there has been a steady and marked
declension In the favorable conditions
that characterized our trade relations
with European nations under the reel
procity treaties that were negotlated
under the Mckinley customs law of
1890. The era OF retaliation and dis
crirnination dates from the ahrogation
Of those treaties by the enactment of
the wnson-Gorman tariN law. II is a
lamentable fact that our commercial
relations with other European nations
are no more satisfactory than are thoss
with Germany. The re-imposition by
spain Of a prohlhitory duty on our -four
cut on our trade with Cuba. which, un-.
der reclprocity. had reached phenome-
nal proportions. In 1891 we sold Cuba
l444l barrels of iour Under our reci-
arocity treaty with Spain the trade in
creased each year until in 1894 ess, slS
barrels OF American -four We're shipped
to Cuba. The increase of trade with the
countries with which we had reciprocity
agreements in 1898 was sl6lIo.5sl over
the trade in 1891.
The obliterRtiOn OF all commercial
barriers between Germany and the
United States was consummated after
years OF patient and persistent nego-
tiation which required the exercise OF
the highest diplomacy. Under the Har-
rison administration the products OF
agriculture found large and
increasing market In Ger
many. Our breadstufts and meats
found free access to the ports OF the
kaiser, and all restrictions that had
been imposed upon them were with
lrawn. The reciprocal arrangement
With Germany provided for the free ad-
to this country OF the beet-root
sugar OF the empire. After two years
II reciprocity the treaty was abruptly
repealed and a differential duty WAS i'm
posed by the wilson-Gor law which
operated to deprive German beet-sugar
OF a considerable part of the
American market.
That the usual diplomatic forms
we're not observed in the abrogation OF
The treaty was not calculated to mollify
he III feeling OF the German govern
nent over the loss OF such a valuable
md profitable market. Germany retail
ated by restoring the embargoes on our
pork. beef and breadstuffs, and also
placed an additional embargo upon the
OF American horses.
Their will be little disposition to CEN
sure the president for his act OF retalia-
lion, but there viii be universal regret
hat conditions that were brought about
by unwise and un-American legislation
should have forced him to the conclu-
sion that such policy is advisable or
necessary. The incident furnishes occa-
sion for renewed felicitation over the
advent OF new administration. the
chief glory of which will be the restora-
ton of reciprocal trade relations with
European and South American coun-
tries.
