Major Mckinley says that all
the country needs to restore
prosperity is confidence.
1t is true that the country
needs confidence-confidence in
the integrity and justice of the
government. The people need
to be assured that the finances
are not being handled III such a
way as to enrich a few mag
mates and to give them a power
ID pinch the country and pre-
cipitate a panic whenever they
feel like making a haul in the
market. 1t needs to be assured
that monopolies are not being
fostered by bounty laws and by
the neglect of antitrust laws
for the protection of people
against oppressive combines.
Will the election of Mckinley
give the country confidence of
this kinds Can the man whom
Boss Hanna is trying to elect
be depended upon to proceed
against trusts and combines
and to favor laws designed to
curtail their powersl
Can the candidate whose
campaign expenses are said by
interests looking for favors
under the laws be expected to
conduct impartial government
for all the people.
Out of McKin ayism the trusts
have grown, and from the trusts
have come the candida
cy of Mckinley in behalf
of gold and protection. The
two are bound together.
On the other hand. Mr.. Bryan
stands pledged. and the pledg'
is strengthened by trust opposi
ton, to use all the power of tn
Presidency to wipe out illega
combines and to restore jus
government. That will restor
confidence to the country.-Re

The Marietta Killing.

Having published the article,
from a Marietta Citizen" de-
nouncing a report of the Seaton-
Lansford killing, appearing in
the Gainesville Hesperian. we
deem it but simple justice to
produce the following which
appeared in the Hesperian of
the 18th:
An item which appeared in
the Hesperian of the 18th inst,
seems to have been misunder-
stood and misinterpreted by the
good people of Marietta. The
Hesperian has so much conf
dence in the citizens of that
town that it believes a brief and
plain statement of the facts in
the case, in so far as this paper
is concerned, will suffice to con-
vince them that the report Of
the Seaton-Lansford killing as
it appeared in these columns
was merely intended as an item
of news, and that neither the
reporter nor the proprietor of
the Hesperian had any thought
of casting a slur on the hither-
to good name of the commuR-
ity," or of doing any one the
slightest injustice.
1t is a fact we'll known to the
newspaper fraternity and those
who are at all acquainted with
the workings of a morning pub
lication that everything pertain
ing to it must be gone through
with in a rush, and as the hour
for going to press draws near
the greater that rush becomes.
The report of the killing at
Marietta came to the reporters
ears at a late hour. He heard
the story as related in the pa
per, and recognizing that it was
a good and readable item, wrote
it down from that standpoint
alone and sent it in to the COM
posing room. where it was put
in type. There was no thought
of reflecting on the character of

matter to find just how much
of the report was true or false.
Under the same circumstances
the same words would have,
been employed had the scene Of
the tragedy been laid in Gaines

The Hesperian hopes this
statement will be a full and
complete vindication from the
charge that it is using its col
umns to besmirch the fair
name Of the people of the Mar
ietta community. Nothing
could be accomplished by such
a course and nothing could be
more foreign to its intentions or

The Origin OF Bliiiards.

In letter, dated 1850, which has been
presented to the Biblotheque Rationale
in Paris, highly ingenious account is
given of the origin OF billiards. The writer
declares that billiards were invented in
England in the middle OF the sixteenth
CENTURY by pawnbroker named Bill
ka". This man, it is alleged, used in
his leisure moments to play on his coun-
ter with the three brass balls which he
hung as sign. For cue he had yard
measure, and the term Bill-yard, or Bills
yards, was corrupted into billiards The
etymology will hardly satisfy Mr.. Skeat,
but it is at least curious as showing to
what lengths the speculative etymologist
is apt to go. The most astonishing thing
about it, however, is the fact that il is the
work OF q Frenchman, who might have
seen at a glance that billiards ia merely a
corruption OF his on the term billiard, from
'bille." ball, the termination "ard''
being perfectly regular and natural in the
composition OF n word intended to desg-
nate the table upon which the balls are
used.

ADULTERiTED BEER A CURSE.
IL Is Rutnsus 10 the Hop Industry
and Injurious 90 Health.

The consumption OF beer is matter Of
yearly increase, the price OF hops one Of
annual decrease. The reconciliation OF
these two conditions would be matter oil
greatest difficulty II beer was not an adu-
terated product. This adulteration is re-
ferred to as chemical one, as il by the
use OF the word chemical" mystery
was present in the product known as
beer. As MISTER of fact chemical
operation is present in the boiling OF wat
er, frying of steak, the making Of coffee
and other household matters. The low
price OF hops is caused by the uses OF
glucose and sugar house syrup instead OF
the former in the manufacture OF beer.
The beer product resulting from the use
OF the latter ingredients unlike the con-
coetion made with hops, is not nutritious,
but is productive of liver and kidney dis
orders. The volume OF these diseases
present in beer drinking communities is
incalculable. Surprising as it may seem,
health boards that are ridieulously active
in the case OF milk are dormant toward
this great evil. II these boards, local
and state, would concentrate a part OF
the attention given to milk on the villain.
GUS compound sold as beer decided i'm
proyement in public health would follow.
There is no article OF such general con
sumption in this country that is so wide
ly recognized as fraudulent one. This
knowledge permeates official circles as
extensively as it does unofficial ones, and
yet no effort is made to correct the abuse,
says the American Dairyman. This atti-
tude, 1t is stated, is due to the wealth Of
the brewing interests OF the country while
the activity against milk rests on d.
rectly opposite state OF affairs. II impure
milk is menance to public health, aud
werconcede it to be such, what in the
name OF common sense Is 1t that causes
bogus beer to be regarded with favor By
health boards The manufacture Of beer
without hops is an injury TO the hop
grower, and an injustice to the consumer.
How serious this is, may he estimated
when it is stated that the yearly hon pur-
chase of very many Of the largest brew
cries is insufficient to meet the require
ments OF one brewing. Under the gen
eral laws against adulteralions il would
seem as If health boards might Improve

A HAN WITH A TAIL.
He Says That Tails in his Tribe
Are NOW Becoming Rare.

A man With tail is one of the latest
discoveries reported by an explorer. Mr.
Paul d'Enjoy, an official Of France in
French Cochin China, has had the felicity
OF making this addition to knowledge
He met the gentleman with the caudaI
appendage In the north OF French Cochin
China. and his discovery is reported in
the Bulletin Of the Paris Geographical
Society.
Mr.. d'Enjoy entered the country oil
these Wild people in the spring Of 1890
aud the first village that he saw in the
unbroken forest greatly surprised him
There was only one habitation, and il
was in the form Of tunnel, $50 feet long
made OF sticks meeting at the top like the
sides Of the letter A, and covered with
leaves. The tunnel was a little more
than three feet high, six or seven feet
wide at the base of the triangle, and was
open at each end.
Some children who were playing out
side raised Il howl as they saw the white
man and his party, and at once some
Withholding creatures rushed out OF the
tunnel and scampered away into the
woods like 50 many monkeys. The ex.
plorer suggests that these Moi tribes are
very likely the monkeys whose battles
with the gods are described in the sacred
books OF India.
One man was up in tree, engaged in
gathering honey. He was greatly alarm.
ed by the flight OF his companions, and
he came down as fast as he could, step
ping on bits OF wood that had been driver
into the tree, Hntil he was Is feet from
the ground, when he sprang down and
tried, with lowered head, to break through
the circle of men who had surrounded the
tree; bat he was captured.

When the white visitor spoke to the
prisoner about his tail, its fortunate pos

II was becoming rarer with every genera.
ton. There was time when Moi king
had tail that was three cubits In length,
but he had been driven from the ricl
plains of his fathers, and, in the later
degenerating ages, tails had been gradu
ally disappearing.
Here was curiosity that the civilized
world is longing to see. There is no tell
ing what light this man and his caudal
appendage might have thrown upon the
theory of evolution II he had been taken
to Europe. Apparently it is not the fault
Of Mr.. d'Enjoy that the native is not de.

At any rate, he put guard over the man
that night. but in the morning the pris-
oner had disappeared and his guard was
delirious with fever. In an evil moment
the guard had been induced to drink the
juice of Llama, and he was bereft OF his
faculties and his prisoner at the same
time. There are evidently prizes in the
wilderness of the Mois that will tempt
other explorers into the region.
