SPEAKING of the great responsible
ity of the Governor in considering
the many bills now before him, the
Philadelphia Press editorially says:
1T is we'll known that in making
these appropriations the Legislature
is rarely careful in its discrimination.
Action is not always based upon
merit. Members within whose dis
tricts some institution is located that
may claim state aid believe it to be to
their personal advantage to secure as
large an appropriation as possible,
and by a system of log rolling pretty
fair success attends them all This is
conspicuously illustrated by the fact
that the Schuylkill members were en-
abled to secure Il $4,000 appropria
ton for the maintenance of an insti-
tuition which has no existence and for
which there is not so far even site.
This we believe to be an exceptional
case, but it helps to illustrate Legisla-
tive methods

Now that the tariff bill is out of
the way, the question as to whether
Congress will or will not Immediately
take up the currency revision is
looked upon with much interest
There are two sides to this question,
and both sides are being carefully
examined by those who are to deter
mine what the course of events are to
be in this particular. By many it is
believed that the special work of the
special session in the passage of a
tariff bill having been so promptly
and happily completed, the business
element of the country would prefer
an opportunity to adjust itself to the
new conditions in regard to the tariff
before being brought face to face
with the currency problem Those
who hold to this view believe that it
would be better to defer any action
on the currency question until the
regular meeting of Congress in De
cember and give the country a rest
Whether this plan undetermined is upon
~Or whether a currency commission
shall be urged upon Congress at once
is not fully determined, but the public
may rest assured that there is no dis
position on the part Of the Admins
tration to delay or trihe with the cur
rency question any more than it has
with the tariff.

NO SLEEP FOR THREE MONTHS.


hedul4y ONeICoLubs
Mr.. VIM. Handschu of 46th st. Cotton
Alley, Pittsburg, Pa, expresses himself as
follows regarding the new remedy for that
common and obstinate disease, piles: Il
take pleasure in stating that I was so al
ficted with piles that for three months ]
got no regular sleep became completely
proslmted, the doctors did me no good my
brother told me of the new remedy for piles,
the Pyramid Pile Cure / purchased from
my druggist three 80 cent boxes and they
completely cured me. i am once more at
my work and but for this excellent medicine
! should be on my back ! take great pleas
ure in writing this letter because so many
people are sufferers from this trouble who
like myself did not know whore to look for
permanent reliable, safe cure.
Experience with the Pyramid Pile Cure in
the past three years has demonstrated to the
medical profession as well as to thousands
of sufferers from piles, that it is the safest
and most efieotual pile cure ever offered to
the public, containing no opiates or poisons
Of any kind, painless and convenient TO
handle and being sold by druggists at so
cents and 81 per box, is within the reach Of
every sufferer.
Very frequently two or three boxes have
made a complete cure Of chronic cases that
had not yielded to other remedies for years
There is scarcely disease more aggavat-
ing and obstinate to cure than the various
forms Of piles aud it is a common practice to
use ointments, salyes and similar prepar-
tions containing dangerous poisons to remove
the trouble. The Pyramid has superseded
all Of these Intellectual remedies and no one
suffering with any rectal trouble win make
any mistake in giving the Pyramid a trial
If in doubt as to the nature Of your trouble
send to the Pyramid Drug Co., Albion,
Mich. for valuable little book on piles,
describing all forms of the disease aud de-
scribing the method of cure.
Any druggist can furnish the Pyramid
Pile Cure as il is the best known and most
popular remedy for piles and if you ask him
he can doubtless refer you to many people in |
your vicinity who have been cured COM

THE regular meeting of the School
Board was held last night, and it was
generally understood that the annual
election Of teachers would take place,
in fact those in control of school
affairs at this time gave it out that
such would be the case For some
reason, however, there was no cleo
tion. 1t appears that the Democratic
members, in caucus, could not agree
among themselves-seven Of them
favoring the dismissal of 13 of the
present corps of teachers, while one of
their number positively refuses to
vote for the dismissal of a single old
teacher. This is why an election Of
teachers did not take place at then
ing held for that purpose last night,
and the fact that the Board adjourned
without considering the subject is
prima facie evidence that those favor
ing the removal of teachers to satisfy
"A craving for revenge and at the same
time making room for their friends,

crippling the schools to gain a per

opposed to the movement and are
giving public expression to their
