Hot Water For Cough.

A sudden and wearing attack of
coughing often needs immediate
attention, especially in consump-
tives and those chronically i'll. In
an emergency, that ever useful
remedy, hot water, will often
prove very effective. 1t is much
better than the ordinary cough
mixtures, which disorder the diges-
ton and spoil the appetite. Water
almost boiling should be slipped
when the paroxysms come on. A
cough resulting from irritation is
relieved by hot water through the
promotion of secretion, which
moistens the irritated surfaces.
Hot water also promotes expec-
toration, and so relieves the dry
cough.

The Union Iron Works will
soon be employing a full force of
men, and an extraordinary salary
list will result. Besides the bat
tleship contract secured by the
Scots, the firm has also con-
tract for building a torpedo boat,
and has just received an order
for a Japanese cruiser, concern

The class of vessel to be built
at the Iron Works for Japan is
described as a deck protected

etc, are as follows:
Extreme length over all, 405
feet 2 inches; length on broad
water line, 1876 feet; breadth,
moulded, 40 feet; normal draft of
water, II feet Il inches, and dis
placement in tons at normal draft,

auxiliary machinery. There will
be high pressure cylinder of 40

There will be four double end

of the Scotch type of IA feet 3

The armament will consist of
two 8-inch 45-caliber quick. firing
guns, and twelve 12-centimeter
guns, these being practically the
same rs the American 5-inch
quick-tiring guns, twelve 70
pound guns, and six 47-millime-
ter quick-fring guns. In addi-
ton there are to be five torpedo
launching tubes, one 14-inch fixed
and four l4-inch training.
The speed of the vessel is to be
20& knots an hour under normal
draft and 22g knots under forced
draft. Every effort will be made
by the Union Iron Works to bring

sHoDDY WOOL IMPORTERS.

H
From what we can see in the Ding
ley tariff bill, the context OF which ap-
pears elsewhere in this paper, it seems
that the duty on shoddy is to be no
more than it Is on wool. Right here
the wool-grower should be made to see
that it is a point very favorable to the
manufacturer, but at the same time
very detrimental to the grower. It is
due to the great noun Of shoddy that
has been imported in the past two
years, as much as to the lack of pro-
lection on wool that the price of the
home product has been so low. There
are ship-loads after ship-loads of shod-
dy being unloaded at the eastern ports,
aud 1t comes from the pest ridden
countries of Egypt, Turkey and Greece
as well as from the enlightened coun-
tries of Europe. The shoddy industry
has increased SO that America is fast
becoming the dumping ground of the
world, for rags, and the increase in
shoddy imports Of 1895 over the three
years previous 10 1926 per cent.
This means that the American PEG.
pie are wearing the east CT clothing
of foreign countries while they are

goods that the American wool grower
is placed in direct competition with
the oriental rag picker.

EASTERN WAR CLOUDS.

Another war scare comes from thu
land of the ear. Russia's great roac
is drawing its mighty Length across
Asia, and very soon the question Of it
eastern terminus will havs to be de
cided, says the Salt Lake Tribune. We
believe that Russia has made a treaty
with China and has secured the right to
make that terminus on the warm waters
within the Korean peninsula. If she
has, the terminus will be established
there. no mstter how much Japan may
protest, DO matter If Great Britain goes
to Japan's assistance. As Great Britain
grows strong in Africa, she grows weak
in eastern Asia. Russia is trusted now
by China; indeed, it looks as though
Russia had established a virtual
p~ro;ectorate over that empire. Rus
STA stopped the war between Japan
and China, and supplied China
with the means to settle her
subsidy, and Russia does not do
those things without a consideration.
If she attempts to establish a great
port at or near Port Arthur, Great
Britain had better accept the situation.
t. attempt to interfere would be about
tn, same as though Russia should in
s'st that England should give up the
coltrol of the Suez canal.
There is another feature of the case.
There are strong indications that Rus
STA has an understanding with Turkey,
and il a war should be sprung, it
would not be confined to eastern Asia.
The question of the waterway between
the Black and Mediterranean seas, the
partition of Turkey in Europe and the
establishing of Russia's southern cap
ital on the Hellespont would ct once
spring to the front. This is a bad time
for any power to spring a great Euro
pean war, but were one to be sprung,
Russia would be in the best position to
meet il.
