"If we are fooled on the sugar
schedule the smartest man in the
House of Representatives has been
fooled" This was Speaker Reeds
remark few days before adjourn.
ment to somebody who told him the
House had been deceived on that
schedule 10 the conference committee.
A great many people who we're
against the trust had the same opin'
ion as this person did when sugar
stocks made their great bound the
day after the conference report was
presented Speaker Reed, however,
retained his confidence that the
House gained great victory in that
adjustment. And he was right.
One of the most skillful experts in
the service of the Treasury Depart.
ment, General Appriser Tiehenor,
has just made computation of the
relative amount of protection given
the sugar refners under the Wilson
and Dingley acts, and he finds the
average differential on the various
qualities to I've over third less under
the present law than it was under the
act of 1894, which was superseded
last Saturday. Tichenor goes over
the entire schedule by degrees, and
makes great many figures. Trans.
lated into plain everyday Language
those figures mean this: Not only did
the House gain q great victory in the
} sugar fight in the conference commit
, tee, but the conference schedule
: which was accepted by both branches
, was less favorable to the refiners thar

that is to say, has less protection un

EVENTS of late have been full of
encouragement to the advocates of
free coinage at the rate of 16 to /.
Conditions seem, indeed, to have en-.
tered into a conspiracy similar to
that which made possible "the great
crime Of 1878" The argument OF
the sllverites based on the assump.
.lion of scarcity of gold did yeoman
service in the last campaign, but the
discoveries in the Klondike fields
promising considerable addition to
the worlds stock of its standard mon.
etary metal, seems possible to rele
gate that argument to the class Of
spent ammunition. Much w0s made
also by the silverites of the relation
between silver aud wheat prices, but

THE ELECTION Law.

There is a feeling in the Vir-
ginia Legislature which seems
likely to result in some change in
the present election laws of Vir-
ginia. Gov. O'Ferrell, in his mes
sage recommended the Emblem
ballot, that is, that the ballots of
the two parties be printed seper-
ately, and a suitable emblem or
picture Of some kind be placed at
the top of each one by which the
ticketa may be distinguished by
voters unable to read. We be-
lieve West Virginia has this sys-
TEN of voting. a representative
from Pittsylvania we believe, pro
poses that the voter shall have
the right to select the one he may
wish to prepare his ballot for him
and so it goes. What will be done
remains to he seen. The truth is
that the dishonest men can take
the advantage Ofany law that can
be framed. The old way of viva
voce voting is, probably, the best
after all. The plan was never
discarded so long as voters were
not afraid or ashamed, from in
timidation or bribery, to let it be
known how they were going to
vote. The history of all this Sc
cret ballot, and private stall vOt-
ing is the history of the beginning
of fraud in elections. Viva VOce
voting, i'll our judgement, would
help to eliminate fraud in elections.
Why should any honest man be
afraid or ashamed to let the
world know how lie votes.

Christmas Presents.

Christmas is near at hand, and as we
suppose everybody expects to make
somebody present of some kind
according to a time honored custom,
we offer a few suggestions on the
subject. And first, make presents.
Some one may or may not have a
claim on you, nevertheless in either
case make up your mind to present
some one with, even cheap or small
gift at Christmas. Don't be mean
and niggaroly. 1t will do you more
good than it will the recipient.
Second, in making presents of
course yon will remember the little
ones of your home. Encourage
them to hang up their stockings, and
see to it that they are we'll filled.
Tell them about Santa-Claus and
his RENDERS, and of his descent
down the chimney. even though
some over pious people may accuse
you of lying. We have no sympa
thy with those strainers who would
rob the children of the happy and
harmless illusion which surrounds
childhood, that Santa Claus with
his RENDERS, is real parsonage.
We repeat. see to it that the chill
dren are not disappointed at Christ
mas time.
Third, Don't forget the old peo-
pie. If there are aged ones in the
house, by all means remember them.
They are too prone perhaps, to i'm
agine themselves in the way, and
not wanted around. 1t may be the
last Christmas they will be with you.
Don't by any means slight or forget
the "old folks at home.".
And last make your gifts useful
if possible. Much money is wasted
in gifts entirely out of place, inap-
propriate and useless. Let your gifts
be according to your means, and of
such character as to be useful, il
possible. If there are children and
others around you whose conditions
forbid presents, remember them.
In this especially do we ex
hibit true nobility and love.

ONE OF TWO WAYS,

The bladder was created for one mr.
pose, namely, a receptacle for the
urine, and as such it is not liable to
any form of disease except by ono or
two ways. The first way is from i'm
perfect action of the kidneys. The
second way is from careless local treat
ment of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy
kidneys 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 i'm rare
cases. 1t is situated back of and very
close to the bladder, therefore anv
pain, disease or Inconvenience mani
tested 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 east
ly made and may be as easily avoided
To find out correctly, set your urine
aside for twenty four hours: a sedi-
ment or settling indicates kidney or
bladder trouble. The mild and extra
ordinary effect of DR.. Kilmer's SWAMP
Root, the great kidney and bladder
meiy is soon realized. If you need
medicine you should have the best.
