MONEY Is GETTING EASIER.

Henry Clews, of New York, feels a
good deal encouraged over the outlook
and he presents his views to the public
as follows:t
GAS indicated in our advices of last
week, April opens with a better feeling
in the Wall Street markets. The cur
rency sent into the country for the
usual April settlements is returning, and,
as the banks now see nothing to pre-
vent steady and comparatively easy
course of the money market until the
Fall crop movement sets in, there is
more disposition to make time loans,
and at rates satisfactory to the stock
houses. A slight furry has been caused
by the close approach of the rates of
foreign exchange to the point admitting
of exports of gold; but that is a move
mept only natural to the season. and if
it should cause some Withdrawals of
legal tenders from the banks to procure
gold from the Treasury, the present con-
dition of the reserves and the influx of
money from the interior may be trusted
to prevent any appreciable scarcity of
loanable funds. The discount market
may quite possibly exhibit some appear
ance of closeness for some weeks or even
months to come; for, in certain indus
tries, there is an overproduction and a
carrying of large stocks Of goods, which
induces caution towards paper coming
from those specific sources. This, how
ever, is by no means general feature in
relation to mercantile paper; it rather
concerns industrial than mercantile
credits; and this feeling among the
banks is perhaps interpreted for much
more than it really means, and, for that
reason, may be soon expected to abate.
So long, however, as it continues, it will
be factor favoring preference for
loans on stock collaterals and will there
fore tend to keep down the rate on
"call" money. To this extent, the pros
pect as to the supply of money for
Stock Exchange purposes is favorable,
within the range Of the next few
months"

HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid In
crease Of Heart Troubles.
no Not Re Alarmed, But Look For
The Cause.

Ibo Not Re Alarmed, But Look For
The Cause,
Heart troubles, at least among Americans
are certainly increasing and while this may b.
largely due 10 the worry and excitement oi
American business life, II Is more often the re
suit of weak stomachs, of poor digestion.
Real, organic heart disease Is incuIable; but
not one case in hundred Of heart trouble Is
organic.
The close relation between heart trouble and
poor digestion is because both organs are con.
trolled by branches of the same great nerves,
the Sympathetic and Pneumogastric.
In another way, also the heart If affected by
that form of poor digestion, which causes gas
and fermentation from half digested food there
is feeling of oppression and heaviness in the
chest caused by pressure of the distended
stomach ON the heart and lungs, interfering
with their action; hence arises palpitation and
short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood, makes
II thin and watery, which irritates and weak
ems the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
troubles is to improve the digestion and to in.
sure the prompt assimilation of food.
This can best be done by the regular use,
after meals, Of some safe, pleasant and effective
digestive preparation, like Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, which may be found at most drug
stores and which contain valuable, harmless
digestive elements, in a pleasant, convenient
form.
1t is safe to say that the regular, persistent
use of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets at meal time,
will cure any form Of stomach trouble except
cancer Of the stomach.
Full size packages Of the Tablets sold by
most druggists at so cents or by mail from

packages for distribution. The original
purpose Of the purchase and distribu-
ton of seeds was to introduce new for
eign varieties of garden and field pro
ducts which might he raised here with
profit. This purpose has been lost sight
of, and the seed distribution has degen-
Grated into means for bribing voters at
public expense to return representatives
to the house. The seeds which will be
sent from Washington to all parts OF
the country, are not new or imported,
but such as may be bought at home in
the open market They are common,
and therefore their purchase and dis
tribution is no more justified than would
be the purchase and distribution Of har
ness, wagons, horses, plows, rakes, sugar,
tea, coffee, boots, shoes or clothing. The
practice, commendable at the time of its
inception, has developed into most OBJ
noxious form of socialism, and into a
contemplate device for utilizing the
national treasury as campaign fund
for the benefit of aspiring and unscru-
pulous congressman who desire to sue
ceed themselves The government might
as well distribute money as seeds, which
may be anywhere bought for money, and
if it is to continue the policy of giving a
money equivalent to one class, it will be
logically bound to confer similar favor
on all classes. The seed distribution swim
die is denial Of equality Of rights, and
class legislation of the most offensive
type. II is on par with the tax laws
which enrich the few, at the expense of
the many, and Getter the free action of
competition by the creation of colossal
trusts.

THE SEED swINDLE.

While no public officer is superior to
the law, and while Secretary Morton de-
serves all the censure visited upon him
for his refusal to buy and distribute the
seeds provided for by an appropriation
act passed by the last congress, it is
nevertheless fact that the seed dis
tribution business is an abuse and a
fraud. In compliance with the latest
law upon the subject, the secretary has
advertised for ten million packages Of
garden, field and flower seeds, and from
this supply, when accumulated. he will
give each congressman fifteen thousand

DowN at Beach City, the women were
ignored by both parties at the primary
elections. This aroused their ire, and
they concluded to run things them
selves. They held a caucus yesterday
morning at 10 o'clock, and nominated
Mrs. A. +. Foster for the school board.
Within an hour and a half they had
seen every woman in the town, and
urged them to come out and vote. They
came out and voted, and Mrs. Foster was
triumphantly elected.
