fashioned ones as are so many of the
British men of war
Our navy is just the kind to protect
our coasts in time of peace, and if wal
should come we know that the purses
of the loyal American people would
pour out money enough to build q
navy that would astOnish the world.
For what a country is this we love
what a nation is this we call our own,
what a government is this We obey
and what a flag is this for which We
would die.
Our country, of which we are sc
justly proud, has set on foot a move
ment that is calculated to prevent
war. Universal Arbitration is des-
tined 10 put an end to all strife. Then
why speak of war? This is time o.
peace and therefore a time of pro
gress, for,
when the angel of peace bids ambition
Her dreams of conquest forget,
When she lightly waves her white pinions
Der fields where foemeu have met,
And when War puts his sword in the scabbard
And hangs in the closet his chains;
Then Inventions portfolio opens,
And pro gress unlimited reigns."

NEGATIVE.

The right Of owning and controlling
public highways has always been in
mOnarchial governments an undisput-
ed prerOgative of the sovereign. The
right Of eminent domain was reserved
for this purpose and the king, unques-
toned. held the use of it as inherently
his own. These privileges were held
sacred by the people until the con-
structiOn of railroads in modern times.
In the measure of the yielding by the
different governments in this matter,
is shown the index of their centralized
power and the liberty of action allow
ed to their people.
Where the voice of the people has
been heard least in the councils OF
state, where the despOtic authority
and bold assumptions of the govern
ment have most nearly chOked out
private enterprise, by levying heavy
taxes and by seeking the loan of pri-
vate capital as an aid to public under
takings,-there the government resist
ed most strongly private construction
of railroads, there was found the
strongest adherence to the dogma OF
sovereign ownership.
Where the people had become less
dependent upon the government and
more dependent upon, themselves,
where the light of a broader political
liberty began to stimulate private am
bitiOn and private endeavOr, and to
do away with the narrow forms of pa
ternal government, there construction
and operation were carried ON by pri-
vate enterprise.
In these diverse conditions, in the
different countries, it will readily be
seen that government ownership is

EU Sickness makes mans
hands useless. General
and nervous debility holds him down just
as surely as a great weight He feels that
he is down, but he hasn't strength or en-
ergy enough to get up again. His whole
body seems tired out. His head is heavy.
All effort Is distasteful. He is as tired in the
morning as he was when he went to bed.
The sleep he gets is heavy, dreamful, and
unrefreshing. His body is full of turgld,
healthless, impure blood. He is subject to
headaches and dizziness and palpitation of
the heart at the least exertiOn. He is on the
direct road to serious sickness. Few men
appreciate how serious is their case when
they say: "Oh, there is nothing the matter
with me. My blood is little out of order /;
that is all. F"
Pure blood is essential to life. The more
impure il becomes, the stronger hold disease
has on the system. If, instead of contain
ing health giving, life giving properties, the
blood is full of disease breeding impurities,
how is the daily waste of the tissues to be
replaced? 1t is perfectly natural that the
man will lose vitality and nerve force-that
he will lose flesh and vigor. He will be use
less to himself and to everyone else.
Impure blood comes from perfectly rea-
sonable causes, and if the proper measures
are taken, it is easy to purify it. DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery is the greatest
blood-purifer that was ever known. 1t is
more than this 1t is a cleanser and invig-
orator for the whole system. 1t strength

liver, restoring it to healthy, normal &C

We wish we could make every
body believe that promptness is pre-
vention; that there should be no de-
lay when you are losing flesh and
when you are pale, especially if a
cough be present. The continued
use of SCOTS Emulsion in the early
stages of lung affections does pre-
vent the development Of Consump-
ton. Your doctor will tell you this
is true and we state it without wish
ing to make any false claims or false
promises. Free book tells more on
the subject.

FOUGHT BY SILVER DEMOCRATS.

THE NOMINATIONS OF FORMAN AND McREARY
AT LAST FAvORABLY REPORTED.
Washington. Jan. I9.-The Senate Committee on
Finance this morning disposed OF two nominations
which have been pending for several weeks. and
against which there have been objections on the
part Of the silver Democrats on the committee.
The nomination of William s Forman OF Illinois,
TO be Commissioner of Internal Revenue and Will
lam q. McCreary. Of ST. Louis. to be Collector OF
Internal Revenue for the District Of Missouri were
called up and favorable report ordered TO the
Senate. Both OF these men Were identified with the
night OF the Admnstra don against the Chicago
ticket. Mr.. FOrman the candidate Of the
gold Democrats for Governor OF his State and Mr.
McCreary was one OF the active spirits in his State
in behalf of the same ticket. Silver Democrats
looked upon their selection reward for their
services in the campaign and antagOnzcd their
confirmation. The feeling against these men was
more bitter rcrnaps. than that agains. Secretary
Francis, and IL thought for time that bot n
nominations would be held up uutil the end Of the
session. In discussing tho nominations this morn
ing the Republicans held that In neither case did
four years term OF office follow conirmat ton
and it was intimated that, promptly after the in
coming Of the next Administration. Republics MS
