ADJUSTMENTS.

At the Clunie Opera house this even
ing the Moulton Company will present
the charming comedy, SNOWFALL" in
which Mr.. Moulton and Miss Stuart
have most congenial parts, and keep the
auditors In constant laughter. The COM
edy is preceded by the curtain raiser,
Drifting Apart one of the prettiest
and most touching bits of domestic SEN
timent ever put upon the stage. 1fiss
Dallas as the wife who, by reason Of her
own and her husbands neglect of home
duties, is drifting away from home and
affection, as also so is he, does as good
and artictic dramatic work as the most
exacttng may desire to witness. Mr..
LOnergan is not a whit below her level
in the touching part of the husband
whose love for wife and child has only
been crusted over by devotion to the de-
mands of society and the club The la
dies will find it worth while to see that
wonderful robe worn in this play by
Miss Dallas, and which was presented
to her by the Empress of Japan. Elec-
trio fans cool the atmosphere of the aud
itoriun of the Opera house; cool fill
tered water is served to the people by
polite ushers. and a first-class dramatic
company gives rational and enjoyable
entertainment. 1t is surprising, there
fore, that with the prices little more
than nominal the business is not more
encoura cling than it is.

THE sPOILS SYSTEM.

Dr. Butler of Columbia University,
in a recent address before the National
Council of Education at Buffalo, New
ton to engage in political work actively
noticeable among large portion of our
people ds due to the evil effects upon po-
litical standards and methods that flow
tenn of treating public Office as q reward
for partisan activity that has gained
so strong a hold in the United States
There can be no doubt of the truth of
this assertion. But It suggests imnedi-
ately that these political methods and
standards are the outgrowth either OF
the activity or the acquiescence of the
people; in largest proportion they spring
from the consent, If not the action, Of
the very people who now express dis
gust that such methods dominate. If
our citizens who decline to take active
part in political life do so for the rea-
sons assigned by DR.. Butler, and he has
given a potent reason, 1t argues that
they have it within their power to cor
rect the evil of which they complain,
and that in continued quiescence they
will not find hope for a better state Of
things. He who would reform must
himself reform; he who would have
things better must himself lend a hand
TO make them better.
DR. Butler says the spoils system IS
utterly undemocratic and utterly I'M
worthy of liberation by an intelligent
people; which are true allegations. but
how is the system to be removed so long
as the mass of the indifferent voters
continue to be SO large proportion of
the whole people? Spoilsmen a-suredly
will not become civil service reforners
out OF the goodness Of their hearts.
ia very few men, determined band,
had not kept the question Of the evil
of spoilism before the people for more
than twenty-five years not such ad-
vances would have been made as have
been accomplished, and great deal
has been accomplished, and a. large por-
ton OF the national service wrested
from the spoils hunter. In New York
the order has gone into the new or
amended constitution of the State, that
hereafter not every office under State
patronage shall be a spoil, but that a
large part of the service to the people
shall be performed by men tested for
duty and engaged and retained in order
of merit and skill
But these advances in State and ma
ton have been achieved by the persist
ence of few. and so It will be as to any
future breaking down of the unwhole-
some spoils system 1t viii go In time,
but the part of the Indifferent voter
and the voter who will not engage in
active political life because of the spells
practice is not played until towards the
end Of the task. All precedent work to
success is usually the output Of a few
men However, this fact should not
discourage us from laboring with our
neighbors to convince them that he
Is but half a citizen who neglects his
political duty; that the ballot privilege
carries with ii obligation also, and that
in the beginning of even party politics
is the beginning of government, good
or bad.

out it the machinery would wrench itself
out of shape. 1t is the same way with the
machinery of the human body it needs
to 20 on steadily and regularly to be in
good health-not by fits and starts. The
sudden wrenching medicines which peo-
pie sometimes\take to overcome consti-
patton, give violent strain to the intes-
tines which weakens them, SO that the
costiveness is afterwards worse than be-
fore.
What costive people need is natural
laxative like DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets
which are powerful without being vio-
lent. They move the bowels gradually
and comfortably but surely. You can
regulate the dose - one, two or three
"Pellets exactly as you need. They
strengthen the intestines to do their own
work, so that after their movements have
become regular they keep on naturally
of themselves.
The pleasant Pellets" gently stimu-
late and invigorate the liver to throw off
biliousness and tone up the stomach to
secrete the digestive juices, and over
come dyspepsia. The entire digestive,
or alimentary, tract is put in motion in
the regular steady way of nature and
health. This is what makes the ." Pleas
ant Pellets" so immensely superior to
the numerous purging pills which wrench
and weaken the system. Druggists may
get more profit out of those other pills
but you don't.

one-inch vial tightly corked, hence, al

The San Francisco Examiner" says
thus far only two objections have been
offered to Mr.. Bryan as a possible Pres
ident-his youth and his oratory.
Neither is raised as an objection. AS
he has the age required by the Const1-
tuition that settles all questions OF that
order AS to his sophomore oratory,
we have yet to hear any one object to a
man because he is a fluent and graceful
speaker. 1t may well be objected that
Mr.. Bryan is not deep thinker; indeed,
his speeches do not read as high class
ora torical delivery should. Webster's
oratory lives on the printed page, SO
does that of the great Irish lawyer Phil
lips, and that of Clay and Baker, and a
host of great Americans. But no one
will be found with the courage TO say
that Mr.. Bryan's speeches read above
the ordinary. They are, indeed quite
commonplace, though in print retaining
their grace. It is in their delivery that
the power of Mr.. Bryan's speeches
le No; if he were Demosthenes, and
If his face were boyishly beardless, these
would not be objections to Mr.. Bryan
compared with the platform, the party
and the following to which he is now
attached Neither youth nor oratcry
can be considered when 1t comes to the
hodge-podge called a platform, upon
which the candidate stands, that houts
protection Of American industry, men
aces the courts, demands license for an
archism and disorder by the play upon
the catch phrase Government by in
junction" that declares for the spoils
system and clasps hands with the men
who are denouncing all government as
an outrage upon the individual.
6s--------
The Democracy is turning every pos
ssble stone to secure the Endorsement Of
Bryan by the Populist National Con-
vention. 1t has so far succeeded, that
the shouting has begun. 1t does not fol-
low, however, that this Is going to Sc
cure the victory to Bryan. If the party
OF the initiative and referendum, which
has abused the Democratic party more
than it has the Republican, consents to
abandon it's principles and be swallowed
by a hungry Democracy, it will make
the stomach of that wolf its grave. The
effect Of endorsement will be to drive to
the Republican ranks large number of
Populists who will not consent to the
tnmolation of their party on Demo
cratic affairs. 1t will soHdify the SEN
timent that may now be at all WAIVER
ing as to choice Of candidates, and Sc
cure rom it the support of the Re-
publican ticket It wiil also ALLEVIATE
from their party a large number of
Democrats who are indisposed to bid
for victory that, If achieved, will have
to be shared with the Populists, whose
demands are Of such a radical nature
as to menace the free institutions Of the
country and threaten the integrity of
the Government. Endorsement will not,
we think, initiate against the Repub-
lican ticket, or tend to snow under the
foremost issue before the people, the re-
vival of American industries under
the protective system, for which
the Republican party stands alone the
champion.
