A Publication by Clagget

"Money, Banks, Panics and Pros
perity," a pamphlet by VIM H.
Caggett, has been received. Judge
Claggett is always an interesting and
forceful talker and writer and his
book is no exception in this respect.
The book begiua by pointing ont the
popular error of considering that no
material is fit for money of full debt
paying power unless its commercial
value as bullion is rs great as its
coinage value. From this the writer
undertakes to show that the cam paign
of 1896 was conducted on false is
sue between two metals, while the
true Issue-the science of money
was ignored in the heated contention
between gold and silver. Proceed
ing from this premise Judge Claggett
declares that the defeat of Mr.. Bry-
an for the presidency, "great as was
the disappointment, was blessing in
disguise, because ga practical
knowledge of monetary science is
only obtained through a progressive
education, demanding much time and
calm consideration; and for this q
single campaign did not suffice.

Then Silly took to the swamps. The
detective discovered that the cows
which the slow Florida trains were
killing all belonged to the tribe of 'has
bcens," and that in every case in the
courts the deceased mixers were paid
for as thoroughbred animals. which are
lot any too common in Jackson county.
The detective sought out the man
who could own so many. lie discovered
n farm full of cripples, and then he set
watch on Silly. A few nights after
that Silly led a poor old cow down to

For thirteen years Mrs. George L. Rogers,
OF West Main Street, Canton, N. Y, suffered
from the Understandable tortures of inflam-
matory rheumatism.
Only persons who have been afflicted
with this disease know what such suffer-
ing Is.
Those vino have never felt the pangs OF
this ailment have not tire remotest idea OF
its tortures.
For years this was an obstinate disease
to oure.
In recent years, however, there has been
formulated a remedy which successfully
eopes with it.
The many cures effected by DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People attest TO that fact.
One OF the striking examples is Mrs.
Rogers experience.
In speaking Of 1t to reporter she said:
thirteen years ago | was attacked with
inflammatory rheumatism and a complica-
ton of diseases
II cannot begin to describe my sufferings
during that time.
"Yoa can judge somewhat OF what
endured, when yea look at these hands,"
They were distorted, twisted and swollen.
"My foot, too, is SO much out of shape
that the big toe lays across the others, the
end touching the little toe.
Notwithstanding am sixty-five years
old, have pleasant home and other COM
forts, life to me was far from enjoyable, for
all other things pale into insignificance when
you are without good health.

From Spanish Newspapers.

The I'll Impartial of Madrid says
editorially.
1t isA fact well known to all European
statesmen that only by means of armed
forces stationed in the late Confederate
States has the Washington government
been able TO preserve the sembmnce of
peace. Even now the new generation of
the conlederacy is but waiting for the
word to revolt. When war is declared
Gen. Lee, who has been consul general at
Havana. and who was kicked out OF Cuba
by Governor General Banco. will raise
the standard of revolt in the old southern
confederacy.
This ludicrous view, however, is
not more absurd than Ell Heraldos
information:
All the troops Of the yankees are In
the far western part OF the country, many
thousand miles from the Atlantic coast
There are only few thousand men all
told. and thev are i'll paid and i'll fed. and
not willing to fight. To utilize this force
it will be necessary to bring it to the
eastern seaboard. There is but one rail-
way by which ii can be transported. and
that is an old and poorly constructed af
fair At one place tins railroad passes
over Niagara falls. cataract 1000 feet
high near Labrador.

things about our internal affairs:

government and is burning towns near

that even if the tribes are au-
thOrized to sell to the townsite
corporations the Chickasaws
will not sell.

Is to impress upon the Creeks
