ONE OF TWO WAYS

The bladder was created for one pur.
pose, namely, q receptacle for the
urine, and as such II Is not liable to
any form of disease except by one OF
two ways The first way is from inn
perfect action Of the kidneys. The sec
ond way is from careless local treat
ment of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid
neys Is the chief cause of bladder
troubles. SO the womb, like the blad-
der, was created for one purpose, and
If not doctored too much Is not liable
to weakness or disease, except In rare
cases. 1t is situated back of and very
close to the bladder, therefore any
pain, disease or Inconvenience mani
tested in the kidneys, back, bladder
or urinary passage Is often, by mis-
take, attributed to female weakness
or womb trouble of some sort. The err
ror Is easily made and may be as easily
avoided. To find out correctly, set
your urine aside for twenty-four hours;
a sediment or settling indicates kid
ney or bladder trouble. The mild and
the extraordinary effect Of DR.. Kiln
ers Swamp Root, the great kidney,
and bladder remedy Is soon realized.
If you need a medicine you should
have the best. At druggists fifty cents
and one dollar. You may have a
sample bottle and pamphlet, both sent
free by mall. Mention The Tribune
and send your address to DR.. Kilmer &
Co., Binghamton, N. Y. The prophet
ors of this paper guarantee the gen
uineness Of this offer.

the position that the mere fact Of filing

is but an eN parte qualiticatlon-in other
words, but preparatory step to the
legal and complete qualification OF tho
justice OF tho poace; and to entitle the

AMENDNESIs 10 THE CONsTIlU-
ZION.

Somc montha Rgo thu question a. to
whether an appeal to the state su

decided in the negative by the higher
tribunal, which bssed its decieion on

ment among prominent mem
bers OF the bar, and at The
meeting of the Bar association held
Monday 1t was proposed to attempt
to secure constitutional amendment
correcting the injustice litlganta often
suffer under the present rule. A bill
looking to the same end is pending in
the Legislature. Appeals ought to be
allowed from other than the final
Judgments OF district coutte, and 1t was
a serious mistake in framing the Con.
sttution TO prohibit them.
1t was also proposed, la the Bar
association meeting, to amend the
States organic law 30 as to make
necessary only one reading Of bill
In each house OF tue Legislature,
before the vote on its final passage.
The Wisdom OF such an amendment
is open TO question. II would facilitate
the passage of hssty ami ill.cousidered
legislation, and no sufficient reason is
apparent why each hill should not,

ings.
A third amendment to the State
Constitution, discussed by the law
yers, was one to exclude all evidence
tending to show that bill was
not properly passed by the Legislature,
II a copy of il, duly signed by tbs
Presiding tllcsr OF each house and
the Governor, has been filed with the
Secretary Of State. Such TN amend.
ment would make a bill 30 signe1 and
filed the law OF the LAM, and would
place 1t beyond question 30 for as the
manner Of lite passage by the Legisla-
ture 10 concerned. There 10 room for
arg ument for and against such a con.
stitutlopai rule, but the preponderance
seems to be In favor OF 1t. II would tend
to establish certainty as to the valid
ily OF laws, anu to shut out technical
objections to them. Ii would, how
ever, give the Legislature latitude 81
wide as TO be Objectionable, unlels
safeguards should be established by
law, which. however, could be done,
though they might also be uncertain.
1t lie quite possible that these three
constitutional amendments will be
presented to the people at the earliest
opportunity for them to give Considers
ton to tuch matters.

THE CRErAS TROUBLE.

The Turkish question is again
accounts 20 to prove that the disorders
on Crete are OF a more serious nature
than they have been for many yeare,
although the history OF that leland
contains many 5lood-stained pages.
The Christian, great majority OF
whom arc Greeks, arc said TO have
rallied under the Greek flag and to be
clamoring for union with the mother
country, while the Greek feet appears
to encourage the secession movement.
The announcement OF these new
disturbances seems to have been q
surprise to all. Only few days ago
the powers completed and agreed upon
a scheme OF reforms for Turkey, and
the sultan seemingly consented to
everything. To the uninitiatsu all
worked well, when suddenly, as
u thunderbolt out OF clear sky, the
news came that Villages were being
burned and Christians massacred
on Crete. Opinions regarding the
responsibility for the fresh out
breaks differ widely. It has been
suggested that Abdul HamId has
secretly prepared this now surprise for
Europe In order to destroy the
harmony OF the powers and direct
their attention from Constantinople to
Athens. The Gresk government hns
also been charged with supporting the
insurreotionary movement for its own
well understood purposes. Russia is al
present posing as the great champion
OF peace In Europe, and her semi
official pross denounces the turbu-
lent element that threatens to endnnger
the success of her mission. Whether
the protestRtions are sincere or not the
future alone can reveal, but II 10 n

alton that Russia desireR peace, anu
that MuTavlefi is an apostle OF peace,
sounds rather alarming. At all events

France Is interested, and now the
trouble on Crete, in which Greece
takes leading part, viii demand the
highest diplomatic skill, II the real
desire is to avoid an actual ccniiici.

NAVY IN A STORM.

Judging from the reports OF the
hurricane encountered of Cape Hat
terss by Admiral Bunce's Il eet, the
country narrowly escaped the loss Of
the flower OF Its navy; but the fact
thatRll the vessels came through such

Admiral Bunce there is an oxper-
