simplicity of the combination, but also
to the ARE and skill with which it is

all the Importance Of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup Of Figs is manufactured

only, q knowledge Of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
limitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the CALI

which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name Of the Company a guaranty
ot the excellence Of lis remedy. It is

Col. White tiustles for the pcop,e.

Secretary Phelan writes the Herald
another letter and points out why several
good men failed of nomination for re-
election to the legislature and other Off
ces. In this connection he says:
Then there is the Hon. Alfred White
of Dickinson, Thirty-6rst district, who
was an important factor in shaping the
railroad bill, while a member of the COM
mittee on railroads of the house, who has
just succeeded in securing the legislative
delegation of his district for renomina-
ton. But if White had not developed
extraordinary hustling qualities at the
eleventh hour, he would have remained
at home also.
Attorney General Cowan, who has al
ways been sincere and earnest in secur-
ing proper legislation for just railroad
rates, has for the first time in the history
Of the state, secured denomination for the
third term; because his friends were true
to him at home, and because he possesses
the necessary hustling qualities tor COM
bination. All of which proves that the
railroad influence does not dominate the
Republican party to the extent OF killing
off all whom they would like to slaughter.

What ever offense was thrown at the

the law should have taken its
proper course. No matter how grave
the charge, how serious the nature,
in this country, as well as all civilized
countries, the courts of the land
should mete out the law and not the
citizens. To be assaIled by bullets,

thing intolerable and forms a cloak
too horrible for assumption. We need

CONSOLIDATION,

We understand from reliable
and trustworthy source that there
is a movement on foot looking to
the consolidation of several of the
benevolent societies of this city
conducted by colored men. In
conversation with a gentleman of
high social standing and well
known business capacity, being
none other than Mr.. Jerome A.
johnson, the BEE was informed
that it is proposed to form into one
gigantic organization the following
associations: United Aid, men,
bership 90; Banneker, membership
175; Fred Douglass Relief, mem
bership 1888; Protective League,
membership rs; Immediate Relief,
60; Knights of St. Augustine No. l,
$50; No. 2, 100. Total 838.
With many others Mr.. johnson
believes that it Is possible to form
an organization of thousand
mem bers. As now constituted,
the several societies can do no
more than pay sick dues and give
respectable burial to those who die.
Little if anything is left for the
widow or children of the deceased,
and the idea of caring for aged
and decrepit members has never
! been contemplated. With MEM
bership of one thousand a sufficient
sum, in excess of accruing death
benefits, for the purchase of a
Home for aged members could be
raised. Property could be bought
in the city and suburbs which
could become valuable assets of the
society.
If Philadelphia, New York City,
and Boston can do this why not
Washington with its wealth and
superior Intelligence? As TO the
funds now belonging to the several
societies there are feasible plans of
equalization which will place each
upon an even basis at the outset.
The BEE is in hearty accord with
this movement and hopes to see it
succeed.

would drive intemperance from the
land, let us stop the manufacture
of liquor and stop issuing licenses
for the sale of it. Until the advo-
Gates of temperance can summon
up enough bravery to strike at the
proper place, the crusade ought to
cease. At all events the man who
sells liquor should not be condemn
ed while the government is left
unassailed.

THE FAMOUS 9TH CAVALRY

! Well, it is strange that the
Washington people have SO little
respect for bravery and patriotism.
They have more respect for sham
bravery and patriotism than any
class of people i'll this country.
Prior to the return of the Dis
trict soldiers from Santiago, where
they had been sightseeing, the
people of this city, pushed on by
the Washington Post, went into
Mysteries to do honor to our hot
house plants who went to Cuba
and return with the fever. Win
dows, doors and sashes and even
chimney tops were decorated with
flags and bunting in honor of the
District soldiers who had made an
excursion trip to Cuba and were
greeted on their return to this city
as heroes. But when the real
soldiers visited the city, the
famous black cavalry, not one of
those white and black hot house
plants would turn out. What does
it mean? Was it because those
brave and patriotic men saved the
Rough Riders from being slaugh-
tered by the Spaniads and won
deserving distinction for bravery
and patriotism on the field of
battle? Or was It because their
skin is black and the color preiu-
dice is still in the hearts of those
hot house plants otherwise brave (?)
District boys who went to Santiago
on an excursion and returned with
the fever?

THE ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE

Every movement looking to the
purificAtion of society should be
hailed with glad tidings and assist
ed to the greatest extent possible
within legal bounds. Of the many
organizations designed to correct
social evils is that styling itself the
Anti Soloon League. 1t would seem
that its aim is to discourage the
habit of wine drinking by curtail-
ing the number of saloons. Wig
liant committees are going the
rounds at all times seeking TO dis
cover violations Of the license law
and are quite a terror to the
saloon keeper. We have no dis
position to be critical, but it
does seem to us that the move
ment is seeking reform by attack
ing the wrong end of the line. The
issuance of a liquor license is based
upon two considerations at least.
First AS a means of obtaining
revenue to meet the demands and
expenses of governing the city and
secondly, in order to satisfy de.
mand If the second instance did
not obtain the first would be inef-
fectual. Hence instead of attack.
ing the saloon keeper, good judg-
meut would suggest vigorous
attack upon the authority which
issues the license and the demand
which renders the sale of liquor
profitable. 1t is well known that
those who are in high places are
In the habitof using alcoholic stim-
ulents. The "cold tea" drinking
in our Congress is initiated all
along the line while the example
set in high places is initiated
throughout the community. Why
not seek to check the custom of
drinking at the Capitol? ? To do this
would be logical, for in that case
the source of legislation would be
purified and pure legislation could
reasonably be expected: Again, it
would seem desirable to seek to
effect a change of sentiment with
respect to wine drinking. The
dissemination Of useful informa-
ton touching the evil effects of the
use of alcohol as beverage would
seem a proper means of curtailing
the consumption of intoxicants.
This could be effected by distri-
butirg pamphlets in which the
physiological effects of alcohol are
clearly set forth, by dealing with
the question from its moral and
hereditary aspect. The policy of
condemning the liquor Vender
while winking at legislation which
legitlmizes the traffic is the
wrong way of effecting reform.
There is no earthly use in harrass-
ing those who are merely the in.
struments of public greed and pub
lie debauch. If they are engaged in
questionable business it is because
the government fluids it wise, or
profitable or both to authorize its
conduct. This espionage and quasi
police methods d signed to hes
merch the r, putation of dealers in
liquors, is not calculated to bring
about the desired results. 1t is too
much like the tall gawky coward
who when asked whether he could |
whip man of his size, stated that |
he could whip the little brother,
but did not w.nt to fight the chal-
langer. If temperance stands for
any hing as a principle, it is worth |
fighting for and the only way to
make successful fight, is to at
tack the strongest enemy. That
enemy is legislation and the drink
ing habit in high places. If WEI

Make IA Good Garden.

Just at this time of the year the
farmer has plenty OF work on hand,
and work that needs prompt at
tention, but the work needed in
the garden is that which he can
least neglect. His living depends
on it, or, at least, he ought to think
so, and act on the belief. 1t is GER
tain that there is no other part of
his entire work so important to the
health and comfort OF his family
and himself, and the actual saving
of expenses which a bounteous gar
den insures is feature which alone
warrants HIM in making a good
garden, no matter what other work
that may cause him to defer. 1t is
presumed that he has by this time
made all necessary preparation for
a supply of fruit, and much of the
provision for a supply of vegetables
should be completed, but there is
time for much more. 1t will not
pay to neglect it.-Teras Farmer.

Handling IA Colt.

In handling a colt, it's instincts
and tendencies should never be lost
sight of, such as kicking, striking
and running away from anything
it conceives to be dangerous. Its
faculties of seeing, smelling and
hearing are very acute, and are
given it for self-preservation, which
is the first law of nature. The ex-
perienced trainer will be patient,
and not require too much of colt
at start, but gradually bring him
in contact with all imaginary dan
gers, until it learns from experience
that they are harmless. No thought
ful or intelligent person will ever
abuse colt for being afraid of any
thing, for it simply intensifies its
fear and makes matters worse

The quality Of the gravel is all
important. 1t should contain not
more than one-third part of sand or
fine material, and should contain
no pebbles larger than a walnut.
There should be a small quantity OF
cementing matter present. This
can best be determined by examin-
ing the sides of the gravel pit after
exposure to the hard frosts of Win
ter. If the walls remain steep with
out caving it may be taken as sat
isfactory test that the gravel will
compact well upon the road. 1t is
a difficult matter to provide this
cementing material artiticially, and
if not present in the gravel it would
be wise to seek better quality. Clay
in limited quantities is sometimes
used to aid in compacting the sur
face, but it absorbs water, and
water is always deleterious, but es-
pecially so in a climate where hard
frosts must be guarded against
