Gladness Comes

With better understanding Of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasante efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort In
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated cOndi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup OF Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due TO the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatiyes or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most sl1illfuI
physicians, but if in need of laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

The House committee on election
of President, Vice President and
Representative in Congress has made
favorable report on the joint re-
solution proposing to amend the
Constitution so as to have Senator's
elected by direct vote; also on bill
allowing electoral returns to be for
warded to Washington by express or
registered mail, instead of by mes
senger only as the law now prescribes.
No matter what the House may do,
the Senate is not yet ready to con-
sent to the direct election of Senator's.
1t is doubtful whether the sentiment
in favor of the direct election OF
Senators is as strong in that body as
was few years ago.

The st. Croix county board met
in Hudson recently and voted to
consolidate the poor farm III
Kinnickinnic with the Insane
Asylum of New Richmond, thus
putting the two institutions under
one management. This has been
done, it is claimed, in other coun-
ties where insane asylums exist
with a saving In expenses. vi
course, the Kinnickinnic farm
will be sold. The board has APP
propriated six thousand dollars
for the erection of poor house
on the asylum grounds which will
be built in the near future. This
will give the county a much more
convenient and comfortable home
for the poor as it will be furnished
with all the modern conveniences
and comic is of life, and will be
great improvement over the old
cold shell now In existence as a
poor house in Kinnickinnic.

Every year when the Legislative,
Executive and Judicial appropria-
ton bill is before Congress there is
more or less talk about the need Of
reform in the pay and control of the
department employees in Washington.
This time, in addition to talking, the
bill puts some restrictions upon the
employees, particularly as to sick
leave, which everybody in Washing
ton knows has been abused aWfully.
Some day Congress will come along
with the nerve TO properly handle
this business, and put it on the
footing of any other great corpora
ton. 1t is notorious that at least
nine tenths of the employees OF the
government are paid more-much
more-than is paid for the same
class OF work in private establish
ments; the other tenth, whose duties
require special knowledge, experience
and experiences, are paid less than
private establishments pay for the
same class of work. Representative
Bingham stated on the floor Of the
House that members of the Appro-
priation committee, including him
self, believe that more than million
dollars year could be saved by
making the salaries fit the work done
in the departments, and these gentle
men are unquestionably right

wonderfully surprised over that part

consideration the fact that while the

name, it makes difference with the

Every body wants good times, but
no one wants the kind of good times
that Senator Spooner and his fol-
lowers tell us about. Senator Spooner
is a prominent stakeholder in the
Pioneer Mines near Duluth, one of the
richest mines in the country. A few
weeks ago he was obliged to shut
them down because they did not pay,
thus throwing two hundred and fifty
laborers out of employment.

We find the following in an ex-
change without credit: "In the
beginning God created the heaven
and the earth. Then he made the
editor, and the liberal advertiser,
and the prompt paying subscribers,
and it was good. The next day
blizzard set in and he created
man who did not believe in ad-
verifying, and he rested. Then
the devil got in the back room
and he created the man who takes
the editors paper for years and
fails to pay for it. The devil then
takes rest, but the editor hasn't
rested since"

Tribune.
The Tribune had better consult
home conditions and let other nations
take care of themselves. Let the
Tribune look up the valuations in it's
own state, for instance. According
to the auditors report of Minnesota,
the best and only authority at
tainable, valuations in that state
deprecated the enormous sum of
seventy-seven million dollars in one
short year. In his report on valua-
ton and taxes, Auditor Dunn of
Minnesota in accounting for the en-
barrassing condition of the states
finance, says the trouble is caused
by the steady increase of expenses
and the gradual decrease in property
valuations. He says the decrease in
the values of property since 1896 in
the great state of Minnesota amounts
to the appalling sum of ST., 10000
or more than IL per cent. in one year
and that there has been gradual
decrease in the values of property for
the last eight years. Evidently the
gold standard don't work the same
in this country as the Tribune would
have it's readers believe it works in
Japan.

Poor old China is to be divided up
at last, if the present European move
ment is to be taken for favorable
omen. 1t will be remembered that
Emperor Wilhelm has been trying for
years to induce Germany to build
powerful navy and his efforts have
been successful in measure until
that country can boast of as well an
equipped fleet as Russia, and her oc-
cupancy of Chinese territory and the
little Hayti episode, all with the APP
parent consent of other powers, leads
one to believe that Germany's ag-
gressive course is to be precedent
for other powers of Europe to follow.
If Russia had not similar designs on
Corea, that country would never have
consented to Germany's occupancy
of China's territory. The same is
equally true of other nations as the
best authorities think they all have
g. designing eye on the celestial en-
pire, and that very soon China will be
assimilated among the powers OF
Europe. What influence this will
have over Europe can not be con-
iectured, but it will be blessing to
thepeople ofChina when this happens.

without d. Kings New Discovery for
Consumption, Coughs and Colds. Ex-
perimpnted with many others, but
never got the true remedy until we
used DR.. Kings New Discovery. No
other remedy can take it's place in our
home, us H. it we have Il certain and
sure cure for Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, etc" 1t is idle to experiment
with other remedies, even if they are
urged on you as just as good as good
as DR.. Kings New Discovery. They
are not us good, because this remedy
has a record of cures and besides is
guaranteed. 1t never fails to satisfy.
