1T IS EASY TO TELL.

People who fail to look after their
health are like the carpenter who neg
lects to sharpen his tools. People are
not apt to get anxious about their
health soon enough. If you are mot
quite well' or ''haf sick" have you
ever thought that your kidneys may be
the cause of your sickness?
1t is easy to tell by setting aside your
urine for "a hours; a sediment or
settling indicates an unhealthy condi.
ton of the kidneys. When urine stains
linen it is evidence of kidney trouble
Zoo frequent desire to urinate, scanty
supply, pain or dull ache in the bach
Is also convincing proof that the kid.
neys and bladder are out of order.
There is satisfaction in knowing that
the great remedy DR. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, fulfills every wish in relieving
weak or diseased kidneys andall forms
of bladder and urinary troubles. Not
only does Swamp-Root give new life
and activity to the kidneys-the cause
of trouble, but by treating the kidneys
1t acts as q tonic for the entire constitu-
ion. If you need a medicine take

THE DINGLEY STEW.

The Republican leaders in congress are
in dilemma. Mr.. Dingley in recent
speech in the house, discussing deficien.
cies,, put the case alphabetically with
several "ifs" all which happening then
there would be no deficit in the treasury
next June. Secretary Gage, however,
don't figure that way, but admits de-
fict next June and in June, 1899.
The Philadelphia "Press" says; "a
deficit for two years to come is now
universally accepted. Mr.. Cannon's
elaborate explanation that if this, that
or the other thing had not happened
the deficit for 1899 would be smaller has
nothing to do with the matter. 1t is
mere bookkeeping. 1t twists figures. 1t
does not provide revenue. The country
expects and it ought to have a frank,
explicit, resoiute declaration from the
leaders of the Republican majority that
the deficit will be met by leyying new
taxes to raise sufficient revenue"
The Chicago Tribune, another leading
Republican paper, speaks out saying:
president Mckinley did not speak out
on the deficit as he should have done.
He displayed unusual and unexpected
timidity. A year hence when the
treasury is empty, he will be forced tC
call on congress for the additional reve
nue. he should have called on it at this
time to furnish. 1t is the more surpris
ing that the President does not ask fol
more revenue now, because he does moi
want his currency reform plan to &C
into effect until the deficit ceases. If fen
Enthusiastically attached to that pan
would not he endeavor to hasten the
coming of the day when he wishes it tC
become operative?"
We submit, after all this, if it is no
evident that the Dingley law is wretch
ed failure. 1t is said that some Repub
lican members uf congress favor revision
and amending and it may come to that
An incme tax would be the thing anC
it will come in time. Great Britain cam,
to it over 30 years ago, and our none!
lords will getit.

"rHE NINETEENTH CENTURY"

Is the title Of poem by William A.
Malline, Esq of youngstown, which we
have perused with pleasure and profit.
The poem is dedicated to his mother, q
well preserved lady of four score. The
dedication takes up four verses of foul
lines each, the first line reading thus
Dear mother, guardian angel of my
lfe."
The poem follows with a sketch OF
parents, referring to time and place Of
birth "near Rhine's classic shore;" then
to growth 10 man and womanhood and
love and marriage and there after seek
ing freedoms land"
ITO build new nests across the ocean,
foam"
The poem begins with verse XIV,
and ends with verse 9. The range oI
the poem is quite historic and compre
hensive, referring to the power of steam
and the wonderful progress of the cen
tury in every direction, not forgetting
authors, inventors, composers and those
in other lines, even the press.
We hope to procure a bound copy
when issued, and hope our citizens will
remember the author is a Cantonian by
birth, and located in Youngstown when
a young man and where he stands wei
at the bar. The News-D Democrat takes
pleasure in saying good word for Mr.
Malline and his creditable production.

PRACTICAL POLITICS

Is one thing, while platforms, inaugural
and spread eagle speeches are quite
otherwise. So in regard to President
McKinley's recommendation that ma.
tional banks should be required to re-
deem their notes in gold, Representa-
tive Walker, of Massachusetts, who is
chairman of the House committee on
banking and currency, says:
"The recommendation that green
backs redeemed in gold be not paid out
would enable one man with 81 ,000, 900 of
greenbacks, demanding gold Of the
treasury and then depositipg gold in the
bank for greenbacks and repeating the
process 346 times, to retire the whole
$346 600, 900 In the time it would take
him to oscillate between the sub-trea-
sury in New York and his confederate
foreign broker. The recommendation
that banks be required to redeem their
notes in gold with no other provision of
law would cause every bank in the coun-
to surrender its circulation, and then
what agency would keep the country on
gold basis?'
So, too, in regard to the proposition
for the gradual retirement of green
backs. Some of the administration
senators and representatives oppose il
outright. Saws Senator Hale. of Maine
al cannot now approve of the scheme
| to retire the greeDbacks and treasur,
notes. think it would be foolish t
undertake it, as we are short of ma
| iority. There is no necessity for retiring
the greenbacks now. Our currency II
good and we are on gold basis. II
put any bill into the nate for the re
formation of currency laws would excitt
endless discussion and occupy the who'll
session, and the inevitable result woulC
be that free silver proposition, 10 to l
would pass by vote anywhere from
to IL majority. Besides, do not thinl
it would De good for the business inter
ests of the country to agitate the cur
rency question now"
The foregoing shows that the Presi
dent and some party leaders in congress
are not in accord, and Senator Hale
statement that greenback retiremen
bill would be amended by the senate b
the substitution of free coinage propo
sition, and that so amended it woul
pass the senate by from to ~ majorit
is significant. This does not look as
the silver issue was dead. Congressme
are in touch with the people it woul
seem and the congressional election
come next year.

A BLIND MAN SHOULD SEE.

Money monopoly, and hence usury ARE.
the great curse in this and other lands,
and gold standard is bat riveting the ar
rangement. Business men ought to see
this and join the Democracy in breaking
this gold rivet. The first step is to re-
store silver
A blind man should see, that all these
so called plans of currency reform now
proposed, are in the interest of cur
rency monopoly, and not for reform in
the interest of the useful people.
Mr.. Mckinley says: "The govern
ment money now outstanding, consists
of S346, ,6S1 ,O16 of United States notes,
(greenbacks) sl07, ,2SO of treasury
notes, issued by authority of the law of
1890, 1884 1853, ,5O4 of silver certificates,
aud $61 ,2sO, 761 of standard silver dol
lars"
The President does not name the gold
coin outstanding as government
money" The amount he enumerates is
about 5000, 900, 900, which he says the
government is pledged by solemn enact
ment to redeem in gold. The President
surely knows that there is no such
"solemn enactment" and never was.
The Sherman act of 1890 declares it to
be tthe established policy of the United
States to maintain the two metals on a
parity" and the repeal act declares it
"to be the policy of the United States to
continue the use of both gold and silver
as standard money" with "such safe
guards of legislation as will insure the
maintenance of the parity in value Of
the coins of the two metals"
These clauses do not say it is the
policy OF the United States to redeem
silver in gold. If silver is standard
money as we'll as gold, it is redemption
money as we'll as gold. If not, why
not? Mr.. Mckinley did not talk thi'
way during the campaign OF 1896, mol
before.
But to redeem 5000, 100000 of paper
and silver in gold would necessitate the
buying of gold and so adding largely tc
our public bonded debt. Is it not 6
beautiful scheme? II no doubt receives
the approval of the bond holders ant
money cliques of England and thi'
country.
| The outlook now is that even thi'
congress will not obey the executive. Ii
such case the people will have an oppor
tunity to pass upon this and other ini
quities next year. We will then know
more about Dingleyism and the peopl
can consider that too.

PRIVATE PENSION PLUMBER.

Senator Gallinger has called halt on
private pension bills.
A private pension bill is special bill
to give pension to some one whom the
pension bureau has found not entitled
to it. Most of them are fraudulent.r
In this congress 1886 of these bills
have been introduced, and past expert.
ence shows that all will be passed and
thus add millions of dollars to the PEN
sion charges already borne by the gov
ernment
Senator Gallinger has taken upon him.

test Whether congress will have the
moral stamina to come up to the scratch

The bureau chiefs and and other Off
cials having the appointive power, are
constituting the law and rules to suit
their own sweet will. The question has
got into the Federal courts, and deCi-
sions radically differing on the same
state of facts have been made by federal
judges in Wisconsin, West Virginia and
other states. 1t is likely there will be a
final exposition by the supreme court.
In Philadelphia Superintendent
Thompson, of one of the branch city
offices, was recently reduced" to the
place Of distributor and has begun action
in the United States circuit court against
Postmaster Hicks on the ground that
the new postmaster has violated the
civil service law. Mr.. Thompson asks
that the postmaster shall be restrained
from removing him from the place he
has occupied since 1898, contending that
he is entitled to the benefits of the rule
issued by President Mckinley which is;
mo removal shall be made from any
position subject to competitive examina'
tion except for just cause, and upon
written charges filed with the head Of the
department, or other appropriate officer
and of which the accused shall have full
notice and an opportunity to make de-
fense." There is an evident determine
ton to make room and so provide fol
some hungry brethren.
