From the Springfield Republican.
the libel suit of Frank b. Noyes of The
Washington Star against the New York
Sun has ended in u handsome and ample
retrsciion on the part of the Sun and the
dropping of the suit. This was an incident
in the late war between the news asso-
Citations, and involved an effort to bring
Messrs. Dana and Laffan to Washington
for trial en- an Indictment for criminal libel
The attempt failed, but another libel suit
was begun in the United States circuit

and payment of all costs Of litigation now
ends the whole matter.

The Mount Lebanon Shakers recently
performed a great deed of charity, al
though it was not designed as a charity,
being nothing more nor less than an adj
vertising scheme. 1t however resulted in
great good just the same. They gave
away 1000 bottles of their Digestive Cor
dial to those suffering from stomach de-
engagements.
1t was so effective in curing those who
used the remedy that they were loud in
their praises of it, and in consequence
large demand for the Cordial was at once
created.

books that tell all about it. Digestive
Cordial creates an appetite, aids digestion
and brings about rapid increase in flesh

The object is to endea"or to abolish

notes and to substitute bank promises
to pay, based upon a new government
interest bearing delt. which would
amount to $4O0,OO0,CO0 in adj
dition to what our government. now
owes.
II proposition like this were made
to an individual-that he should de-
iberately incur debt at interest and
with the money pay off u debt which
bore no interest at all. and which no.
body was hurting him to pay off-he
would consider it mere joke. But
the money bags who will meet at in
dianapolis are not joking. They have
been emboldened by their victory in
the presidential election and they
deem Gnlb Ill dpPAoPAAoV0' S'SAA w.
make further demands upon the Nc
Kinley administrator and upon the

And for what reason do they de-
mand this act OF folly? Why are not
government paper dollars better any
day than bank promises to payr Why
should We borrow OF the national
bankers s4Oo,OOO.O00, and give our
bonds with interest for the loan, In
order to afford them chance to make
