Spring IS the Time Ii
When impurities in the Blood
Should Be Expelled

Americas Greatest Medicine Is the
x>. Best Spring Medicine.
In winter months the perspiration, so
profuse in summer, almost. ceases. This
throws back into the system the impuri-
ties that should have been, expelled
through the pores of the skin. This and
other causes makes the blood impure in
spring. Boils, pimples, humors and
eruptions then appear or some more
serious disease may take its start. Hoods
sarsaparilla is the remedy for impure
blood in all its forms, as proved by its
marvellous cures of blood diseases. It is
therefore the medicine for you to take
in the spring. 1t expells all humors, and
puts the whole system in good condition
for warmer weather.

sixty days trying to get together a little

have finally succeeded in mastering the

putting them in fighting trim.

would have been the case If. instead OF
Spain, we had had to deal with one of
the powerful nations Of Europe.

THE SENATE,s FOLLY.

The Senate was bound to do something
in the interest OF silver and in the d.
rection Of fiat money. so it has adopted
a resolution to coin the seignorage.
But what is this seignorage andhow
about which so much has been said?
one OF the best and most concise defni-
tons that We have seen is that given
by Mr.. Cleveland in one Of his messages
to Congress. lie said: This gain or
seignorage indicates so much of the
bullion owned by the Government as
should remain after using a sufficient
amount to coin as many standard sill
yer dollars as should equal in numbers
the dollar represented by the Treasury
notes issued in payment Of the entire
quantity Of bullion"
Under the Sherman act Of 1890 the
United States Government purchased a
large quantity Of silver bullion at the
market price. stored the bullion in its
vaults and issued against it. or. 4 YOU
prefer, in payment Of it, Treasury notes
equal in amoun 90 the cost Of the bull
lion.
Now II has been ascertained that the
difference between the actual cost of
this bullion and its coinage value IS
something more than $40, 100000. This is
called the seignorage. and this is what
the Senate proposes to coin. The Pee
pie are told that the Governments h;
made this much profit in its silver rur-
chases. and it is now proposed to tske
that so-called profit and use 1t In carry
ing on the war.
The whole thing IS absurd and rois-
leading. The Government has moi made
any profit in its silver transaction. On
the contrary 1t has lost helv'ly IN ptr-
chasing bullion, Tor it could not TO day
begin TO realize in the open market what
it actually paid for the silver bullion
purchased under the Sherman law.
Coming the seignorage" is simply
taking a lot Of silver bullion that the
Government has ola hand and making
1900. 600 silver dollars that are worth
less thar half their face value on the
bullion market. For the Government to
do this. therefore. is to put out 4%2,OOO,coO
forty-four-cent dollars to be maintained
at a parity with gold. 1t is really a tax
on the Governments credit. and the only
difference between coming this silver
and issuing a like amount Of green
backs is that the silver dollar has forty
four cents intrinsic value, which the
paper has not. If the Government real
ly desires to realize on this bullion, the
sensible thing would be to put it on the
market and sell it and cover the proceeds
into the Treaeseury.

THE QUAY MACHINE.

The political situation in the State OF
Pennsylvania grows more and more in
teresting. As u readers are well aware,
the fight in the convention was between
the Quay machine and those in rebellion,
led by Mr.. John Wanamaker, the mer-
chant prince Of Philadelphia. Pennsyl-
vania IS largely Republican, and Mr.. Quay
has carried the organization in his vest
pocket for many years. He is one Of the
most astute politicians in the country,
but. like all Of his kind, he believes in
working the machine, regardless Of, the
wishes Of the masses.
Mr.. Quay understands the power OF or
ganization, and he knows that, as a gen.
eral thing, elections are not carried by
the masses. but by the lieutenants in va
rious parts of the State. known as party
workers, and he knows that as long as
these men can be kept in line the power
Of the machine Is hard to break.
The people will stand a great deal Of
bossing, because they do not take the
trouble to rebel, and ever If they do, as
a rule, they are without leaders. And
so this condition has gone on in Pennsyl-
vania until the machine has become AFRO
CANT and corrupt and until the eelf-re-
specting men in the party have deter
mined that the time has come when the
machine must be smashed.
Mr.. Wanamaker was called on TO lead
the movement, and while he put up a good
fight, he was utterly powegless against
Quay's superb organization. Mr.. Wanna
maker had declared that it was his desire
to accomplish the reform which he sought
inside the party organization. but at the
last moment ne withdrew from The con-
v%ention, leaving a letter of warning, from
which we take the following significant
extracts:
To suffer the political machine to sell
for cash the Commemorative justice or
retain squatter sovereignty in the State
of national offices is only 10 Kill the pO-
ltical party thus INDUCED. a mighty
revolution has set in within this State.
Pennsylvania is no longer docile or unre-
sisting 10 Republican bossjsm.
Unconditional hostlty 10 all machine
methods is the loudest war cry within
Republican ranks throughout the Com
monwealth since the days Of the civil
war. 1t Is not fractional. u%nfriendly or un-
Republican in me. with my continuous
record as a Republican that cannot be
challenged. TO speak thus plainly TO my
neutrality-suspicious. in this hour of great
peril to the party. There are, indeed,
many unwilling to follow further a ma
chine.
1t is now believed that Mr. Wanna
maker will run as an independent candi-
date, but whether so or not, the revolu-
tion has begun and 1t viii not end until
the machine is reformed or smashed. If
this cannot be done within the party or
ganization. it will be lone in en- indie
pendent movement without. As the
Democrats overthrow the German ma
chine IN Maryland. so the Republicans
are now determined 10 overthrow the
Quay machine in Pennsylvania.
