COASTWISE DEFENSES.

Our Atlantic seaboard cities have
begun to perceive that the possibility
of bombardment from the sea is to
be regarded in practical light The
New York Chamber of Commerce re-
Gently passed resolutions calling upon
the Government to increase the num-
Der OF its trained artillerymen. The
improvement of our coast defenses by
means of great guns of modern CON
structiOn has now made considerable
progress; and the rapid crowding of
work during the past few months will
soon have resulted in the completion
of large number of these powerful
fOrtification guns, which will be put
IN place at numerous points along the
coast. 1t is obvious, however that
trained men for the manipulation of
these heavy batteries are quite as
requisite as the guns themselves.
Even if the very imminent danger of
war with Spain should pass away,
this country would have been the per-
mant gamer by reason of the efforts
put forth in this furry of preparation.
The safety and dignity of the nation
demand that its defenses he modern
and ample. We have no need of a
huge navy, but the cause of peace in
the world requires that our navy
should be manifestly efficient, and that
it should be easily stronger than that
of any other country excepting the
two or three principal naval and colo
NAL powers of Europe. With a navy
considerably stronger than we now
possess, we might have dictated peace
in Cuba long ago, without the firing
of single gun, upon terms which
could have been greatly to the advan-
tage of Spain herself, and would have
saved her cost and misery. A moder-
ate but progressive increase in our mil
ilary and naval strength, together
with defensive preparations along the
coast, will constitute our best and
cheapest insurance against war, and
will rebound in many ways to our ma
tional advantage. From "The Pro
gress of the World" i'll Amcrica,,

OBJECT LESSON FOR THE WORLD.

The action of Congress last week, in
passing by a unanimous vote in each
branch, of the act appropriating fifty
millions of dollars for the use of the
administration, as it may see fit to ex-
pend the same, is an object lesson of
international interest. The United
States has served notice upon the en-
tire world that the people of this cOun-
try are standing firmly together. The
world has been notified that when the
republic is either directly or indirectly
threatened all party lines are wiped
out, and the whole people, without
any reference to previous condition of
political views, are unit in the matter
of self-defence.
Never in the history of the country
has there been such an unanimity of
sentiment as was revealed on Tuesday
in the House and Wednesday in the
Senate. Without any particular delay
save in the House, where brief express
sions of opinion were given, Congress
appropriated fifty millions of dollars
as the basis of fund to perpetuate
peace. There was an almost total
absence of bOmbast and the general
trend of the discussiOn-it was not
debate-was that it was absolutely
necessary to provide an emergency
fund, not because of any possibility
of danger, but because the step was
one that should have been taken long
ago. The time might come when Con
gress was not in session, when the
President would be brought face to
face with crisis that demanded the
expenditure of money, and without
the right to spend it the safety of the
nation would be put in jeopardy. That
contingency has been prOvidedfor
The action of Congress will surely
impress Spain and the rest of the
world with the fact that the United
States-slOw to anger-is prompt to
act 1t has been revealed that we
have the money and we have the cOur-
age to look after our own interests
The United States has been governed
upon basis of perpetual peace, but
when that peace is in danger of being
shattered the people do not hesitate to
act, and to act with vigor. The ap-
preparations of those fifty millions of
dollars does not mean that the country
has taken a step in the direction of
war; it is rather step to ensure peace.
No other nation on earth, says the
Morning Ne,cs, can equal the United
States in the matter of resources. The
appropriation has been made without
a suggestion of loan, and the money
is on hand ready for use when needed.
We have millions more back of it,
every cent of which is available when
the time comes. As an argument in
favor of peace the action of Congress
is unequalled. No other Legislative
body in the world could have passed
an appropriation of that character with
out some opposition and without a
splutter as to where the money was to
be obtained.

Wanamaker TO Fight Quay.

Hon. John Wanamaker has con-
sented to be candidate for the Re-
publican nomination for Governor of
Pennsylvania, in opposition to the rule
of Boss Quay, and in his letter an
nouncing the fact, says:
"The next Chief Executive of Penn
sylvania must be a man possessing the
fullest confidence Of the people, with
out a Lexow collar and free from every
stamp of the machine.
"When the people rise they are all
powerful to declare the end of misgov-
ernment of cities and States. It may
take time and toll, but there must be
many true men and women in Penn
sylvania ready to take stand and re-
main standing until a new order OF
politics is an accomplished fact.
Somebody must begin. 1 am ready
to do my part. The fight must be
fought, and fought to the finish. if il
takes all summer, with the autumn
and winter thrown in"
These are brave, bold words, and
they indicate that Mr.. Wanamakel
knows the work that is cut out fol
him and proposes to go at it in dead
earnest. He will have the support o
the independent papers of the State.

There is only one way to cure Deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube gets infamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube restored
to it's normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inhamed condition OF
the mucous surfaces.

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 in rare
cases. 1t is situated back of and very
near to the bladder, therefore any
pain, disease or inconvenience mani
tested in the kidneys, back, bladder OF
urinary passage is often, by mistake
attributed to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort. The error IS
easily made and may be 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
remedy is soon realized. If you need
a medicine you should have the best.
At druggists fifty cents and one dollar.
You may have a sample bottle and
phamphlet, both sent free by mail,
upon receipt of three two-cent stamps to
cover cost of postage on the bottle.

ONE OF TWO WAYS.

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely, receptacle for the urine,
and as such it is not liable to any form
of disease except by one of two ways.
The first way is from imperfect action
of the kidneys. The second way is
from careless local treatment of other
diseases.
