The expense of the government steadily increased up 10 lSSo, but declined in 1890. In 1870 the expense of the war was still felt. Economists hold that the expense of administration should decline per capita as population increases. The governments money is appropriated towards rivers and haroors, public buildings, exposBdons fish com mission etc On the other hand, it may be conteinded that the government gets the worth of iiS money.

Jon Thursday night, the 22d, at the city hall, an immense crowd wit- messed and enjoyed the entertainment given for the benefit of the Episcopal church under the direotion of Mrs B. c.

The en- tersainment consisted of a play in two aots, entitled "The Loan of a Lover,' with six characters all of whoqn rerde and executed their respective pants ad- miralbly we'll. At the conclusion of the second act there was an ini1ermission. at which refreshments were served after which came the chief feature of the even ing, the 4'Grecian Drill," participated in by twelve of the Doveliest and handsomest young ladies' who went through all or the various movements without flaw. This drill Is quite difficult. but these young ladies mastered it thoroughly and reflected great credit on themselves. While naturally twelve handsome young ladies would make picture of lovelf- ness, yet the beauty of the scene was considerably heightened by the means of calcium lights. Quite a neat sum was realized and all in all the affair was a grand succeSs-

OUR LETTER BOX.
VALUABLE DATA.
To the State Herald:

To the State Herald:
 The Richmond (va.) Times of yester- day, April 21, inst, opens leading edi- torial appeal to the custodians of south ern records, wi1h the following para graph:
 At the forthcoming reunion of the United Confederate Veterans, to be held at Nashville, Tenn, on June 22-24, the question as to the best me nod of Secur- ing a history of the late war will claim the apt5ntion of the convention. Tt is most serious question, and we hope that a satisfactory solution of 1t will be ar rived at"
 There has also besn a widely circulated call from Rev. Dr. J. Wm. Jones' of Vir- ginia, and Prof. Denny, of Georgia, upon individuals for data prepara tory to the action of the Nashville convention, or reunion. I beg lthe use of your much read columns .O name several au'thori- ties on 'the rise, struggle and extinction of the confederate states which cannot dail to rec5fve the most earnest attention of the truthful compiler of our records. They are so important, indeed, as to have baan studiously avoided for a purpose by the makers of that history" found in our schools and universities, not emitting a recent edition of an encyclopedia. I refer to the following enumerated ele- mentary sources of confederate states history:
 1, The letter of the three original com- nlissionIers of the confederacy to Europe, Messrs. w. L. Yancey, chief commis- sfoner, and P. A. Rost and A. Dudley Mawn, associates. date "uondon, August 14, 1861," and addressed to her Brianic majesty's secretary of stalts for foreign | affairs, Lord John Russell. This Is doc ument comparable to nothing in Ameri F can political productions, except the dec laration of July 4. 1776. It is along the same line of jus tficarfon of the exercise of the right of self government that Jef- ferson pursued in his paper, but it is far more elaborate and eloquent. The con- federate document is about sixteen pamphlet pages. r.. Is a masterly expose of the origin of the sectional differences in America, and in this particular lies its special claim to the notice of history. It demonstrates the peaceable intent of the southern movement, presents proof of the incompatible wealth of the confederacy and challenges all time to offer an ex- ample of nation better prepared in the arts of craftsmanship or in the powers of it's soldiery to mairitain itself than that young republic the three commissioners represented in Europe. ..,, sD ?.

strife between low and high tariff men; between bank monopoly and the pro- ducers. e-I
 Two schools of southern historians will inevitably develop at Nashville and the longer the labor of compiling our history is deferred th- wider will be the gap be tween them. One of these schools is rep- resented by Gen. Bradley T. Johnson, who, on the occasion of his address at the dedication of the Memorial hall at Richmond said 1t is not enough that posterity shall know that the south, thought" it was right in 1884, but pos terity must have the abundant evidence available now that the south was right.
 The other school is represented by MT. Henry Watterson. If that great and earnest contingent of the American peo- pie of 1776 who were tories, adhering bravely to the cause of the king ever wrote or proposed 10 write the record of their side of the mighty struggle the ex- istence of any such chapter of history Is unknown to me. MT. Watterson said. however, in his address at the opening of the Columbian exposition .'The con federacy was a phantasm, mirage;' since then he is reported to be assiduous- ly devoted to the writing of eulogistic biography of Abraham Lincoln. --5

coNFEBERAFR SOLDIERS.

The confederat soldier stands forth to- day qEe. of the grandest figures in his- tory. Around him cAngs the aroma of herofc deeds, and about him hoveTs iIhe pathos of defeat. He believed he was righi., and he rislSzd his life in deferd1ng what he believed to be right Ut seems strange ts read of soldiers of fortune, men who sell their sword to the highest bidder and risk their lives for lucre, but it Is not strange to read of the heroic deeds of sths confedetSjts soldier fer he was actuated by motives as noble and as brave as -exar prompted a man to acEton- He rlsked his all for the sake of his con- victa-ms. Whatever may b. the verdict of history as to the right or wrorg of the lost cause, no impartial history will ever attribute to the confederate soldier ether than the noblest impulses. It is fitting that a day should be set apart from our active duties to commemorate the bravery of these noble sons of the blood-washed south, and it is rigtl- and proper that the beautiful Daughters of tfrfs fair sorishlaEd should scatter flowers over the green sod beneath which thsy sleep. -''.> -..- sta

 The bladder was created for one pur- pose, namely, a receptacle for the urine, and as such it is not liable to any form Of disease except by one ar two ways. The first way is from imperfect action of the kidneys. The second way is from care legs local treatment of other diseases
 CHIEF CAUSE. E
 Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid neys Is the chief cause of bladder troub- les and suffering so painful to many that life is made miserable. The womb like the bladder was created for one purpose, and if left alone it is not liable to become diseased, except in rare eases. When In position the womb is situated back of-and very close to the bladder and for that reason any distress, disease or ineonven- fence manifested in the kidneys back, bladder or urinary passage is often by mistake, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort The error Is easily made and may be as easily avoided by paying little attention to the condition of the urine (see pamph- leD.

The pastor of the Third Presbyterian church has recently emphasized the so- cial feature of religious life. He has carried home life into the conduct of his church. h.,He has made his church q home to his flock. He has had Judge Banks, Dr. J. H. Phillips, and other entertaining speakers, to deliver lectures in the church and has had concerts and social gather. ings, of similar character This idea of making the church a home is very beautifhI one. It is the old patriarchal idea. The Hebrews lived much of their time in the synagogue.

We acknowledge the billet of wood is rather hard to carry these times without having such characters of stockholders, but hope for a pick up in business when the Mckinley prosperity sets in.

same man, imprisoned in the charnel- l-house of ill-health will but too often idly, and without an effort, await the approach of death There is but one way to meet and overcome the deadly disease, consumption. It is to grasp the best weapon at hand and valiantly beat down the barriers of disease. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is the best and only sure weapon to use in bat ting with consumption. It cures o0 per cent of all cases. It purifies and builds up the blood, and drives out the disease germs. The lungs cannot long remain diseased that are constantly renewed by rich, red, arterial blood of the best quality. When the lungs are supplied with pure blood, the germs of consuription are soon rendered harmless. The Discovery" also contains elements that steady and strengthen the nerves, and it is the best medicine for those suffering from loss of sleep brain flag and overwork. Thousands have testified to the great bene- fits received from this wonderful medicine.

 months have had bad cough, and instead ot

The steel makers who are shipping their sheet bars to Wales and then re- turning them as tin plate, are smart fellows. They get the benefit of the high protection on tin plate. They make consumers in this country pay protection prices. The workingman with his din- ner pail pays it.
