RELIGIOUS PRESS AND WAR.

It must be apparent to every well-or-
ganized mind that the situation is a very
serious one, and that buster and bun
combe should be rigidly suppressed-at
least sternly rebuked. Experience in this
matter may teach US wisdom. Men not
yet very old have memories of the North
eastern boundary dispute, and of the
spasm known, as the .'MadawaslSa. war
happily a war that did not fire gun, at
least at an enemy. But how the claims
shrivelled or else were surrendered by no
less a diplomat than Daniel Webster!
Younger men have memories of the fifty
four forty or fight" and also of the hui
initiation which followed dropping down
to much smaller figure. 1t is much
easier TO keep out of trouble than to get
out of it in cases where our folly has led
US into it. The commission to inveSti-
gate that question of territorial claim in
or near Venezuela may be a wise sug-
gestion: truly we greatly fear that it is
well conceived; are there not in il some
touches of the ridiculous? However this
may be. let it have patient consideration.
and take the course usual with grave sus
gestiOns. Happily, Representative Bou-
telle and Senator Sherman have not lost
their balance. May their tribe increase

The special message sent to congress
last week Tuesday was a remarkable doc
ument In il the president claimed that
the United States has the right 10 inter
fere in behalf of Venezuela in the case of
disputed territory wSth Great Britain. A.
the risk of being called unpatriotic, We are
compelled to dissent from the position
taken by many of our contemporaries.
We regard the members of congress. and
newspapers which have done so much TO
infame the public mind as practical enc
mics Of our country. 1t IS a matter Of
qualification that the pulpit has sounded
the notes Of peace everywhere. Suppose
Venezuela, relying on the presidents mes
sage and the action of congress. should
undertake by force to gain possession OF
the disputed territory, this country would
be morally bound to support Venezuela in
the war. The whole affair has been badly
managed and the message Of President
Cleveland was ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

some members of congress have INDUCED,
| ard of the paa:cky feeling in financial
| circles. The real condition amounts 10 no
| more than this. that the president has
firmly expressed the unanimous convic-
ton of the nation that while there IS no
| purpose or disposition to interfere with
she possessions OF European powers on the
western continent, the United States VIII
not allow their further extension. This
seems about all there is of the Monroe doc
trine as understood al present II is not
put forth IS an international principle,
but as one held by this nation As
70 the enforcing of IL by war, that is ar
other issue. What the president pro-
poses IS to find whether there is ground
for the suspicion that England, in order
10 plant itself at the mouth OF the Orr
roco. is seeking TO grasp territory TO
which il has no claim Il can subStantiate
before an arbitration commission. This
Il IS proposed 10 inquire into. not neces-
sarily IN order TO enforce the verdict by
war. but to file a protest. if need be. which
the coneensus Of nations viii pronounce
justifable, and which viii serve TO en-
force another and more urgent appeal
for arbitration.-N. Y. Christian IntelI

The Monroe doctrine. being an extreme
conclusion stretching over North and
South America, a region about four times
as large as the whole of Europe. while
essential to our liberties, and therefore 20

be urged over such a question as a dis
puted boundary line until the condition
becomes such as TO threaten an imme-

thought, as he declares: DuJ If so. it has
apparently been a thought of perception
as distinguished from rejection. If. as
some main tain, he proposed TO threaten
war in order 10 accomplish his purpose by
peace. he took several great risks: the
risk of prostrating the business OF the
country; the risk of making il extremely
difficult, if not impossible, to secure ar
bitration; the risk OF making ii difficult,
if not impoSsi BILE, for the senate and house
of representatives to avoid a declaration
of war in a probable contingency. There
has been one. and only one, president
from whom such rashness of language
might have been expected. His name was
not Grover Cleveland, but Andrew John

this, no human being can forecast what

The proprietors of Paine's celery
compound have never exaggerated
either the virtue of this wonderful
remedy nor the astonishing character
of the endorsements it has received.
This greatest Of all blood purifiers
and restorers OF nervous energy, this
remedy which is to-day in greater de-
naand than all the so-called spring
remedies put together
This Paine's celery compound, which
was first discovered and prescribed by
Americas most eminent physician,
that giant among medical scientists
of this progressive age, Prof. Edward
Z. Phelps, NJ. d., IL, D., Of Dartmouth
college
This remedy, which has been bless
ing to thousands upon thousands OF
homes in every State and city Of the
country, which has been theoretically
endorsed by the ablegt physicians,
which has received thousands Of heart
felt testimonials from women and
men in every stations in life, and has
been publicly recommended without
solicitation by persons Of such high
character that they are honored by the
whole nation-this remedy that makes
people well, has received SO many let
tiers in its praise within the last two
or three months, coming in every mail
from every section Of the country
that it would be impossible to print
them in the daily issue Of any one
paper.
Mr.. Hearst's great paper, the Jour
nal in New York, the Globe and the
Journal in Boston, Mr.. Kohlesaat's
powerful Times-Herald in Chicago,
have each of them, within month,
devoted from one to three pages at a
time to the most remarkable canvass
ever made of the druggists in the great
cities. And their best reporters, un-
prejudiced one way or another, have
found that the druggists are meeting
not only larger demand than ever
before for this one remedy, but that
this demand-because Paine's celery
compound cures where everything else
fails-is SO far greater to-day than THAT
OF any other remedy that is has no
competitor.

Among the thousands Of tcstimon-
ials that have been received by the
proprietors OF Paine's celery conn
pound this spring, none have been
more noteworthy than those that come
from the national capital. The en-
thusiastic letters of Judge Powers and
Of Congressman Grout we're recently
published in this paper. Above is a
good likeness Of one of the ablest mem
bers on the Democratic side of the
House, a leader of acknowledged abili-
ty, a personal friend of the president,a

Elisha +. Meredith, of Virginia A
letter from him, dated February !,
from the House OF Representatives,
says:
''After a fair trial have no hesita-
ton in saying that / believe Paines
celery compound all that is ciaimed
for 1T, and it gives me pleasure to com
mend it,"
A letter from Congressman Robert
Neill, of Arkansas, contains the fol
lowing:
MY home is at BatesviIle, Ark. Dur
ing the last spring and summer my
eldest daughter, then II years OF age,
was IN very poor health, suffering
from general debility, nervous prostra-
tion and frequent slight feyers. She
had the best medical attention, but
apparently with little benefit. I'm the
latter part of September last, while
still feeble, she began THE use Of Paine's
celery compound, and improved in
health continuously. In three months
she had fully recovered, and is still in
perfect health j am bound to think
the remedy is an excellent one, and do
not hesitate to recommend it to the
suffering"
Lieut.. @. A. McAllfster, writing from
hotel Oxford, March %, said:
For several years past have been
a sufferer from severe attacks of dys-
pepsfa, caused by too close attention
to business; on the advice of a physi-
clan, / took several bottles of Paine's
celery compound, and have been great
ly benefited thereby. Since the first
of last September / have gained 25
pounds, and am now feeling in first
rate health.

gress from Colorado, in a letter to

same time, told how he had used three
bottles Of Paine's celery compound for
dyspepsia and rheumatism, with salts
factory results.
Major Gen. Birney, who is now. at
the age Of rs, practicing law and doing
departmental work in Washington, the
unhinching commander at the battle
of Fredericksburg, of the famous 38th
New York regiment, in letter to
Wells a. Richardson Co, says:
"My wife has been taking the Paine's
celery compound for some time past,
and is SO much pleased with it that
she wishes me to express to you her
high opinion of it's merits. She thinks
it the best she has ever tried"
Congressman WILDER, Of New York,
writing in March, used these signifi-
cant words:
Il was persuaded by friend to try
your Paine's celery compound some
time ago, and after its use, am pleased
to recommend it to any one who is in
an oyerworlled or rundown condition,
as doing what is claimed for it,"
Many other letters from prominent
included in this years files of testimon-
ials from Washington.
Every city and every town in the
country is equally well represented in
this wonderful popular Endorsement of
the remedy that purifies the blood, re-
builds the shattered nervous system,
restores strength, regulates the kid
neys, liver and bowels, cures disease,
makes people well.
In these latter days of spring, in the
last of Che three great months, the
close of natures yearly revival season,
when the recovery from sickness is
the most rapid and lasting, Paine's
celery compound will make vigorous
nerves and good blood.
During these latter spring days
there is a clearing of the air; it is the
most favorable time Of the year to cure
nervousness, neuralgia, sleeplessness,
headaches and low spirits by the use
of Paine's celery compound

GOOD CROPS NOT YET ASSURED
For the Present There is Less Business

GOOD CROPS NOT YET ASSURED

New York, May 15.--R. g. Dun d
Co.'S. Weekly Review OF Trade which
issues tomorrow will say:
It is now the middle of May, too late
for business to change materially until
the prospects of coming crops are as
sured and definite shape has been Civ
en- to the presidential contest by the
conventions. Until the future is more
clear there is a prudent Discrimination
to produce much beyond orders, or to
order immediate and certain needs. If
this waiting spirit prevails two months
longer, it will crowd into the last half
of the year an enormous business, if
the outlook then is good. For the pre-
sent there is less business in the whole
than year ago, though in some
branches more, and the delay following
months of deression is to many try
ing, and causes numerous failures.
An attempt was made to manufac-
ture excitement in the cotton mar
I<et for the government report but the
price closed exactly as it began the
week and port receipts have been act
ually larger than last year. All cur
rent arguments based on the assump-
ton that the quantity used in manu-
facture has been or is now at maxi
mum rate are disapproyed by the clos
ing of many mills for want of demand,
and the general effort to reduce wages
which has caused some strikes.
Wheat is unchanged in spite of all
rumors and the Atlantic exports, flour
included as wheat, which were last
,,ce,. ,,,a tay than Western rppeiDfS
for two weeks 3,059, 484 bushels against
2,917,305 received, have this year been
only half as large, 1,906,414 bushels
exported against 4,079, 230 Western re-
ceipts.
The most fortunate of the chief in
dustries at present is the boot and
shoe manufacture which is not only
shipping to customers within 6 per
cent of the largest number of cases
ever forwarded in the first half Of May
but is getting many new orders. The
iron and steel industry, on the ether
hand, is pronounced as dull as 1T ever
has been in it's whole history at Pitts
burg, in part because of a malnten-
ance of prices recently advanced and
the demand is so small that in spite OF
such advances prices average 1a per
cent lower for the week, Bessemer pig
being higher than it was three
months ago. at S12.65, while No. !,
anthracite is also lower, $3.50 at New
York. -.
Failures for the week have been IA
in the United States against I'll last
