The InvalidS' Mecca.

No journeying miles through hot chimes,
under torrid skies, over arid desert
stretches, through unforetold dangers to
a more or less mythical haven when the
treasure of regained health is perhaps
withheld-no more suffering without the
hope of relief-no more despairing with
out one promise of permanent surcease.
So sure are Drs. B. s. & Co., the great
specialists, in their methods of treatment
and the permanency and surety of their
cure. Though you may have passed
years in untold agony from pressing Attic
ton, still you may hope. Though your
life may have been clouded with deepest
pains, still in their skill there is refuge.
Though disappointments; often repeat
ed trials may have been your lot, still
Drs. B. S. & Co. stand ready to cure,
ready to heal with unfailing skill and dis
patch. Their skill is the product of years
of toll, study and painstaking research,
and is conceded by the highest medical
authorities to border on the miraculous.
Disease, the unrelenting prey, becomes
ubmissive to their master minds. A
case once taken by Drs. B. S. & Co. is a
guarantee that the patient will surely be
cured. They will visit Owosso, Nov.

Revival of Mining Industries.

Eds. Record Union: The thoughts

and the United States in particular,
seems to be engrossed in the one great
absorbing questionable production of
gold and silver and their relative values.
Through this a great spirit of revival
of mining activity in the gold and silver
producing sections of our country has
very largely developed, and California
to-day stands foremost as the great
gold producing State Of America.
The spirit of 40 has new life, as evil

the expensive mode of working, have

skill of early miners failed to make

outlook points to mining as the great

Says a Cuban dispatch Of a Spanish
General: General Bernal captured fif-
teen prisoners, all Of whom will receive
summary ourt-martial." And that is
what the Spanish Government calls
war" For, of course, the lines quoted
mean that these prisoners of war will
be taken out and shot-have been muir
dered by this time; trial they never
have had, of course. Spain justifies
such barbarism which we have looked
upon as the characteristics of savage
Africans and the more cruel of Ameri-
can Indians on the ground that there
is not war in Cuba, but merely an upris-
ing of ruff scuff''; "a lot of rioters not
soldiers are causing the trouble, and
these law-breakers must be treated to
drum-head trial. But the world says,
and the world Is right, that a state of
war does prevail, emitting the rules of
war to obtain under which prisoners
cannot be butchered or treated like
dogs. However, the American Congress
hesitates and parleys over the question,
so that after all the world may be
wrong, and state of war may not pre-
vail in Cuba, for Congress ought to

PUTTING IT MILDLY.

The st. Louis Republic" well says:
Anarchists VOW that the metropolitan
press is the slave of the moneyed classes
and corporations. Plutocrats complain
that the metropolitan press panders to
the disorderly.
AS evidence of this position of the
press between two antagonistic forces
the Republic" cites the statement of
Charles E. Norton, the art critic, in a late
Review" to the effect that the press is
working against financial order and the
moral enlightenment of America, and
in favor of the retrogressive influence
of ignorant foreign multitudes. But,
cause the daily press condemns his for
eign crusade of ignorance and preju-
dice. The Republic says:
Last year two novels made q stir in
England and the United States-Grant
Aliens British Barbarians'' and Marie
Corellis Sorrows of Satin" Allen bit
terly arraigned the big newspapers and
magazines because they looked to fam
lily conventionalities and would not pub
lish offensive stories. Corelh was pro-
fusely eloquent in denunciation of the
same magazines and newspapers be-
cause nothing could get their attention
unless it shocked the family morality
of England. If there is any conclu-
sion of this whole matter it is that from
Charles Eliot Norton to the anarchists
men are prone to talk through their
hats
That is putting it too mildly If these
statements prove anything they estab-
lish the fact that the great body Of the
decent press is uncontaminated and un-
approachable. It is true that a large
number of metropolitan papers are con-
trolled by money gain, by patronage
and by influences that are unclean, and
that many of them put themselves into
the roles of hired agents to prejudice
the public mind one way or another.
even in suits between individuals pend
Ing before the courts. But the great
body Of the press, notably the rural
press. will be found on the side Of fair
play, cleanliness progressive move
ments' order, law and against ignor-
ance and indecency. Both Norton and
his class, and the anarchist Ahlwardt
and his class, talk less through their
hats than through their bitter preiu-
dioes and the peep holes of their narrow
oreeds

Mob law under no circumstances is TO
be commended, since it means the s,1b-
lection of orderly and cool Judgment
to the heat of passion. But we cannot
find much heart to very harshly con-
denim the uprising of the people in de-
nunciation Of the minister at Fresno
who asserted from the pulpit that two
thirds of the girls of that city above the
age of IA are despoiled of virtue. A
community that would not get "hot In
the collar" over such a wholesale SLAM
der would be deserving of reproach.
The error was in attempting personal
violence upon the fellow, which proves
anew how dangerous is mob under the
Inflammation of passion and the
promptings Of revenge. This Is to be
said for the people of Fresno, how
ever, before there were any violent man
ifestations, a committee of the people
called upon the man, advised him to
leave the city and offered him an es-
cort from it. This he declined, and re-
fused to accede to the demand that he
emiErate. Then came the mob from
whose fury the Sheriff saved him. Now
comes this clerical slanderer and re-
tracts. but excuses himself with the plea
that a friend told him the thing he as
serted from the pulpit. The clergyman
has written a retraction, expressing his
sorrow for the utterance of which he
was guilty. But the mans usefulness
in that or any other community is at an
end as q minister of the gospel A man
who INDUCES in such onslaughts with
out first fortifying himself with proofs
of the truth of his charges is unworthy
to serve the cause Of Christianity. The
pulpit, of all forums, demands the
trained judgment and cool head. The
