1.-THE temperance reform is in every
thing. Each philanthropic movement
has it's temperance aspect, aud with this
we are to deal. The alcohol nerve runs
through every part of the great body
polite, and wherever the nerve goes there
the scalp must follow, and, at whatever
cost, must disseot it out. The modern
temperance reform moves along circular
rather than straight lines; it seeks
harmony with parallel philanthropies, so
that all Christian workers may have a
common consciousness that they form but
a single group in their devoted labors fol
God and humanity. Such a concept
would have been impossible gave that
science has furnished us with a working
hypothesis.
"We are one world of tempte !
humanity, and the mission of the W. G,
L. U. is to organize the motherhood OF
the world for peace and putty, for the
protection and exaltation of it's homes
We are sending forth an earnest call to
our sisters across all seas and to our
brothers none the less. We are no longer
hedged about by the artificial boundaries
of States and nations, but we are saying
as women what a good and great man long
ago declared, The whole world is my
parish and to do good my religion.'"-

NOT FOR EVERYTHING

But if you have kidney, liver or
bladder trouble you will find Swamp
Root just the remedy you need. People
are not apt to get anxious about their
health soon enough. If you are mot
quite well'' or ''half 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 twenty four hours; a sediment
or settling indicates ar unhealthy condi-
ton of the kidneys. When urine stains
linen it is evidence of kidney trouble.
Too frequent desire to u~ripate. scanty
supply, pain or dull ache in the back is
also convincing proof that the kidneys
and bladder need doctoring.
There is satisfaction in knowing that
the great remedy DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, fulflls every wish in relieving
weak or diseased kidneys and all 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 it
acts as a tonic for the entire constitution.
If you need a medicine you should have
the best. Sold by druggists, price fifty
cents and n dollar, or by mentioning
MONITOR REGISTER and sending your
address to DR.. Ktlmer s. Co., Bingham
ton, N. Y, you may have a sample bottle
of this great discovery sent to you free
by mail.

Munhall, the English statistican of
worldwide renown, in his concluding
article in the North american ReuieO, on
the progress of the United States, treats
Colorado, Utah, Montana, Idaho, Wyom-
Jog, California, Nevada and Oregon, and
shows them to be by far the swiftest ao-
cumulators of wealth in the world. In
the twenty years preceding the last Gen.
sus they increased four times as much as
did Americans generally. The whole
Union averages thirty-nine dollars per
head per year, but these States one hum
dred and ff5y-six dollars. In twenty
years they have multiplied their wealth
by nine, the actual figures being, in
1870, a value of s727, 0O0. 600; and in
1890, SO. 81, 600. 900. In that period of
time they took forty-fve tons of gold and
eighteen hundred tons of silver out of
the ground. Munhall says that this,
being worth 500, 600, 600 per annum, ex-
ceeds "the value of precious metals that
any country has yet produced in the
history of mankind" Yet these States
also had an agricultural product of $685.
600, 600 a year, and a manufacturing oat-
put of 100000, 900. These statistics,
says the Christian Adoocate, ought to be
published far and wide, that the whole
land may congratulate these States,

direst extremity by r-ason of adverse
legislation concerning %silv.r

The Di ngley bill is proving to be a
revenue measur as we'll as a protective
tariff. For the month of September the
Federal Treasury receipts were $21, $685.
09S-nearly So, 900. 900 more than the
figures for August. The deficit for Sep
TENDER was So. 435, III, as against an
August deficit of $14, SOC. 693. The Co.
tober interest and pension payments will
add about 81, 000, 900 to the ordinary ex-
penditure for the current month; but the
Treasury officials are confident that the
new revenue law will enable the govern.
ment to meet this increased outgo with
out adding materially to the deficit.
Despite the enormous advance importa-
tiOns in the spring and summer months,
the receipts for the second month under
the Dingley bill were 50, 793,e58 more
than for the correspondoning month
under the Wilson bill.

The action of the Republican county
convention at Elmer on Wednesday was
generally anticipated, it being customary
to accord the Assembly man a re-nomina-
ton, and in thus honoring Hon. Joseph
B. Crispen the Republicans of Salem
county have done justice to a faithful rep.
resentative, and in again returning him
to the Legislature he will be in a position
to render even more efficient service to
the people of the county. In nominating
Mr.. Henry Coombs for Surrogate the con-
vention honored the choice of the county
executive committee and the appointment
of Gov. Griggs, and present to the people
of the county for their endorsement a man
already tried in the office. He embodies
every element of character to give him
winning prestige in the contest for the
office. Both these men are above reproach
in every respect, and worthy the support
of every voter. and especially of every
Republican.

A double murder that is without a
parallel in the criminal history of
Camden county or the State of New
Jersey was committed at 242 Line street,
Camden, between 40 and 4.4O O'Clock
Tuesday morning. The victims of the
assassin's cruel bullets were Mrs. Emma
Zane, 70 years old, and Mrs. Sarah Il.
Shaw, 46 years old, a daughter of Mrs.
Zane. The only other occupant of the
house was Eli Shaw, a son of the women
and a grandson of the other. They were
a happy family, the young man being the
lido of both mother and grandmother.
The crime was a most cold-blooded
one and was committed by one who.must
have been an excellent revolver shot
Only two shots were fred and each
claimed a victim. What the motive for
the crime was is unknown. Shaw has
been arrested.
