HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common water glass
with urine and let IL stand twenty. four
hours; a sediment or settling indicates
a diseased condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen it is positive
evidence of kidney trouble. Too fre-
quent desire to urinate or pain in the
back, is also convincing proof that the
kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
Terhe is comfort in the knowledge
80 often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's
swamp Root, the great kidney reme-
dy, fulfills every wish in relieving pain
in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part of the urinary passages. 1t
corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad eff.
fects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to urin-
ate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
1t stands the highest for its most won
derful cures of the most distressing
cases. If you need a medicine you
should have the best. Sold by drug
gists, price so cents aud one dollar.
For sample bottle and pamphlet,
both sent free by mail, mention the
News-Democrat and send your full
post office address to DIR. Kilmer & Co,

of this paper guarantee the genuine

THE LEVEES TOO Low.
Flooded Mississippi Threatens
to Go Over Them.
THERE Is NO HOPE OF CESSATION.
The Upper valleys Are Flooded and
Heavy Rains Prevail-The Levee Cut
Near Charlottesville, Mo.-More Lives
Lost-work of Rescue.

MEMPHIS, March 20.-Two negroes
have lost their lives as result of the
great food, which engulfs hundreds of
acres of land in the Arkansas bottoms.
The two men were drowned in Fifteen
Mile bayou, near Marion, Ark. There
is no cessation in the rise of the river.
It is rising atall points above and below.
Heavy rains continue.
At Marked Tree, Ark, on the st.
Francis river, there has been a deplor-
able rise, because this river swells the
great volume. of water in the Missis-
sippi where conditions are already so
distressing.
The gloomiest feature of the distress
ing conditions is the fact that there is
little or no hope of the abatement of
the high water within the near futre
because of floods reported in the upper
valleys.
The most alarming reports concern
ing the condition of the levees above
and below memphis have been in cir
culation in Memphis, but they have
particular reference to the levees below
this point and even below Helena
The levees are in most places built to
extend three or four feet above the
highest water mark in the locality
where they are constructed. 1t seems
now that this allowance of altitude has
about been consumed by the rising
water. Up to this time the people have
exerted their utmost strength to solidify
and preserve the levees, believing that
by careful watching and by applying
remedial measures whenever there was
q prospect of break, disaster could be
averted. But reports from down the
river indicate that hope has been lost
in many places.
There is very reliable information to
the effect that at Modoc, Avenue,
Hugheys and other points below
Helena the water has gone over the le-
wee, and the levees being in such q
mushy condition from the rains it is not
thought possible to protect them much
longer from the ever rising food. The
people living behind the dikes in the To-
calities mentioned are already flying for
their lives. The hundreds of men who
had been at work watching the levees
have about all been taken away and
their labor will be utilized In saving the
lives of other people.
There is positive information that the
levee constructed under the direction OF
the St. Francis levee board near Caruth.
ersville, Mo has been cut, and the be.
lief is prevalent in that locality that the
work was done by persons living ON the
Tennessee side, who hoped by making
an opening for the flood on the Ar,
kansas side to decrease the food anC
thus save the property on 4he Tennes
see side.
Hundreds of refugees have beer
landed here by the relief steamers anc
are being cared for by the relief com
mittee.
A report is current that of the levet
having broken at Hill House, Miss
flooding the fine farms in that locality

sugar trust. The trust is quite willing
to have a tariff on raw sugar for that
is got from the consumers. The wooden
manufacturer is always better protected
than the wool grower, and will be again.
But we mainly wished to call attention to
the important fact of the surplus in the
treasury now OF over 5000, 900, and to
show that there is no lack of money
with which to carry on the government
There was therefore no need of this rush
to call Congress together in order to in.
crease the revenue. The real reason
was to serve the manufacturing monopo
lists who did so much in money and
otherwise to elect Mr.. Mckinley.

specKeu ana muuuy. rearl Bryan's
valise was found at saloon where
Jackson had left it.
1t was bloody inside, and Jackson
said that Pearl Bryan's head might
have been in it. Pearl Bryan's pocket
book aud other property were found in
Jackson's possession.
George Jackson, a colored coachman,
told the police that he had driven two
men and woman to the place where
the body was found. He got scared
after the start was made, but one of the
men on the box with him compelled
him to go with revolver. He identi-
fed Walling as the man.
He said they took the woman out of
the carriage and disappeared. He heard
noise, got scared, and walked and ran
to CINCINNATI.
He drove over the route again with
police officials, and identified the car
riage and horse which he had been
hired to drive.
Later Pearl Bryan's hat and Scott
Jackson's handkerchief were found
together in the, road near Newport.
The night clerk of a hotel said that
about 4. m. the night of the murder
Walling engaged q room at the hotel,
without registering.
All this testimony was submitted at
the trial, which resulted in their con-
viction.
Perjured evidence was introduced to
save the men, but it was proved to be
perjury, the witnesses later confessing,
and availed the defense nothing.
The defense tried to prove that the
girl died of medicide administered for
abortion, and then her head was cut
off. Experts testified that her head was
cut off While she was alive, which was
shown by the fact that the blood spurted
on the leaves and ground where the
body lay. If she had been dead at the
time the blood would have been coagu-
lated and would not have spurted.
Nothing has ever been found of the
head. Pearl Bryan's sister pleaded
with jackson and Walling to tell her
where the head was, but each only ac-
cused the other.
The men had chance to leave the
Newport Jail, when other prisoners es-
capped, but refused

1t is certainly strange that the Presi-
dent of the United States should sup
pose that the people want more taxa
ton, and not more money with which to
be able to pay taxes required under ex-
isting laws, and also to aid business.
Insufficient revenue arises from stagna-
ton in business and consequent falling
away of trade. Give us money enough
in the land to start business and set the
idle hands at work, and there would
soon be revenue enough.
Every farmer, business man and
workingman know full well of the en-
barrassed condition OF things, and that
proper supply Of the circulating
medium is the great lack. These Re-
publican leaders, as usual, are expert
menting with their old gag of "protec-
tion," not to relieve, but to load the
people more. These men legislate for a
class, not for the mass. They are the
tyrants and oppressors, not the saviors in
any sense.
The wreck of individual fortunes and
the ruin that have been sweeping over
this country demonstrate what the gold
standard by contraction and disturb
ance of values has been doing for busi.
ness. This disastrous condition of
things cuts down the profits of the
farmer, merchant and everybody else,
and diminishes the revenues of the gov
ernment. AS we say, our solons a

According to the United States treas.
ury report there is an available surplus
therein of$75 900, ,OOOand over, lying idle.
Money thus boarded is taken out of
circulation, away from the channels of
industrial activity, and hence is an in.
jury to the country by embarrassing
business. Notwithstanding this, Con-
gress convenes in special session on the
Presidents call with view to secure
the passage of tariff act that will pro-
vide the government with ample revenue
and restore prosperity,
AS we say, besides the 100000, 900
gold reserve there is at least an excess
in the treasury now of $75,00000O of an
available balance. Why, under these
circumstances, increase the taxes and
put more money into the treasury to
hoard or to squander. The tariff to
be enacted is to be protective, that is,
repress imports and thereby improve
the home trade.
By curtailing imports, less revenue
will be collected as was the case under
the Mckinley tariff OF 1890. This is the
general rule, and the only way to pre-
vent it is to put duties on articles now
free, such as sugar, wool, etc. The tax
on refined sugar will prevent imports in
that line, thus giving the field to our
