CONDITIONS AND REMEDIES.

This government is based on the equality of all its citizens. When the common people, and by this is meant the masses, the laborers, the great con suming element, witness the danger o,1s concentration of wealth in few hands; when they see and feel the par alyzing effects of trusts and monopo- lies: the creation of privileged classes and their fostering; the use of money ao influence elections and to corrupt Legislatures and congresses, is it to be wondered at that complaint is made, that a spirit of unrest is abroad, and that the mutterings of storm are be- coming louder and stronger?
 Is it to be wondered at that the com mon classes become suspicious and express their suspicious audibly when they see the pitiable spectacle of a great government holding out its help less hands to a clique of rich bankers the fruit of its own raising?
 When the poor are growing still poorer, labor scarcer, the army of the inyoluntarily idle increasing year by year, and day by day, the working classes cutting off this and that luxury and depriving themselves of even this and that necessity, while the riches of the rich are increasing, new lux uries being invented to tickle their pal ates, new toys of pleasure being buil1 to enable them to emulate the splendol of the eastern Oriental is it surpris ing that in the height of their miser! the masses cry aloud for a remedy?
 Remedies are glibly talked of. Every body can think of number of them They are all good if they are remedies The great trouble comes in the man ner of their application. In nearl! every remedy when put in motion som' vicious mind finds an open door to de feat its purpose. It is said that whil the man with good intent is inventin! a combination safe that will be proc against the invasion of the burglar some other man with evil intent i just as busy inventing tool to ren der the opening an easy task for tn invader.

 Mamma, was that sugar-plum you just gave me?" asked little Mabel t'No, dear, it was one of Dr. Ayers Pills" Please, may I have another?" Mot now, dear; one of those nice pills is all you need at present, because every dose is effective"
 Sufferers from sick headache, indi- gestion, and biliousness may alwsys find speedy relief in the use of Ayers Pills. There is no other medicine in pharmacy which goes so directly to the source of these maladies and brings about so thorough and radical cure. They cleanse the stomach, liver and bowels, and, to a certain extent, puri- fy the blood of waste products; at the same time they act as a health giving tonic to all the tissues involved in the complex process of digestion In this way, they effectually relieve headache, nausea, indigestion, biliousness and waterbrash. and prevent diarrhoea or summer sickness. They are, there fore, indispensable in seasons when bowel complaints or malaria prevail, and should go with the tourist to the mountains or the seaside Ayers Pills are sugar coated and easy to take They quickly dissolve on reaching the stomach, consequently their full me dicinal strength is soon realized. They were awarded the highest honors at the Chicago Worlds Fair.

 Solicitor Ferguson then asked permis- sion of the court to offer the entire eVl- dence of Witnesses Latham and Hick- man given on the preliminary hearing on the predicates laid by counsel for the de fense to impeach their testimony. in the pending trial. This was promptly ob- jected to by Attorney Lowe and the point was argued by Attorneys Lowe, Brown and Altman for the defense and Solici- tors Bradley and Ferguson for the pros ecuton. The court took it under ad- visement. The position advanced by the defense was the constitutional guarantee that the accused must be confronted with witnesses against him.
