Col. pavis, ellrature Deliberation. !"

Col. Davis "1Iature Deliberation."
Colonel Thomas B. Davis has publicly
announced that he will not be a cam
didate for the Democratic nomination
for governor Of West Virginia next
year It Is not denied that he has SER
lousy considered the matter, but after
mature elaboration he has finally de-
cided not to be a candidate. He says
his business affairs take up his time,
and he would not care to sacrifice them
for political Observation-Disclosures
Register.
1t is amusing sometimes how sud-
denly ones business affairs are re-
membered in politics, and how prone
the man is to refuse to sacrifice them
for political honors when It Is made
plain that the honors have been lerRed
out OF his reach. The truth Of the mat
ter is that the more than willing re-
captivity Of Colonel Davis as guber-
material candidate was 30 badly dam
aged at the ParkerSburg conference
BY Colonel Joe" Chiffon that Colonel
McGraw was compelled to withdraw his
name from the list Of ellgibles. The
mature elaboration" that Colonel
"Tom" was pleased to indulge in we do
not thlnk occupied his mind many mo-
ments after he heard from his friend,
Colonel McGraw. Business affairs at
ford the same excuse in political life
as does the relative cause "for personal
ana private reasons" in rejecting spec
ulatlve houors.

THE QUINA IREF.

"Get Your ouinineI-Get Your eui-
nine-oome All You Sick and
Lame and Blind, and Go to the
euack and Get auininep
The most useful to mankind Of all
the. natural products Of South America
is probably the familiar drug made
from the bark of the quina tree, which
was used by the Incas az q cure for
malarial diseases. A Jesuit missionary
discovered this fact and brought some
OF the bark to Lima, where itB efficacy
was demonstrated by the Countess OF
Cinchon, whose husband was a Yiceroy
of Peru IN the early days Of Spanish
domination. She sent It to Spain as a
remedy for fevers. and no drug men-
toned in the dictionary has been con-
sumed in larger quantities or has at-
forded greater relief to suffering hui
manity. Il was originally known as
Jesuit'S bark, because 1t was brought
to notice by these enterpr1sing and in.
duisltive scouts Of the church. It was
more extensively advertised as Peru-
Wan bark, but the botanical name Is
clnchona, in compliment to the fair
lady who first sent II to civilization.
Clnchona Is found all through the
Andes, from the Argentine Republic to
the Spanish MAN. but the supply was
greatly diminished by the perversity OF
the Spaniards, who cut down the trees
before they stripped them. That has
been prohibited by law, and only a por-
tion Of the bark may be taken from
the trunk Of tree each year, and not
more than nature Is able to replace.
England, with that provident fore
sight which characterizes much of her
political economy and colonial policy,
several years ago sent Mr.. Spruce, the
eminent botanist, to Peru. He made
a large collection Of clnchona plants,
which were transplanted IN Ceylon, In
dia, Burma and other colonies Of the
East, where they have been since culti-
waited with great success, 50 that most
Of the worlds supply now comes from
the British possessions, During the last
few years the Germans have taken
hold OF the trade In Bolivia. and are
now cultivating Il with their usual
skill. Probably $500. 900 trees have been
set out in the last ten years by them.
One man has put out at least 100000
trees, and another nearly as many.
The "quinales," as they are called. are
still in their infancy, but are begin
ming to pay, and promise to be very
profitable. The trees are Just now large
enough to lose little Of their bark. but
they will soon be the source Of a large
supply.

Once in a while an editor has to
"break out" upon a sort Of critic In
cluded in almost every newspapers
constituency. Generally It Is the kind
who think they know what ought to 80
into his paper better than the editor
himself, who make the trouble. Re-
Gently the editor Of the Putnam Comm
Standard gave such critics to know
their place" in Wholesome fashion, as
follows:
There are persons who are 80 deeply
interested dn certain moral and relig-
lous movements that they think the
newspaper should open It's columns
for articles OF any length and quantity,
and because we Will not print them,
charge US with being recreant to our
principles,
''such people think they know Just
how a newspaper ought to be edited,
much better than the editor, and as adj
visers, think we should not regard our
financial interest in doing our work. A
large class Of this kind, we find, will
not permit their names to be appended,
for the reason, as they tell US, that they
do not desire to incur the ill-wlll OF
anyone evidently uneoncerned how
much hostility and financial loss fall on
the editor
1--WE print a paper to make a living,
as men carry on any business. We de-
sire to make It an influence for good.
We desire to be at peace with all men
as much is possible. as suggested by
the Apostle, who knew that with some
men Il was not possible, do what one
might to please them. Were 1t not for
the commonsense and fair-minded ness
OF the average person, and the manly
forbearance Of the more intelligent
and influential class, making all allow
ance for human frailtles. an editors

of New England. This has resulted in
an Increase of wages OF the operatives
Of 10 per cent, which Affects nearly $780,

The readers OF this paper will sbe
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all Its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure Is
the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires consti-
tutiOnal treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting d.
rectly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces OF the system, thereby destroying
the foundation Of the disease, and Civ
ing the patient strength by building up
the constitution and assisting nature in
doing its work. The proprietors have so
much faith In its curative powers that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that It falls to cure. Send for list

Regarding the Denison depot
site, which has been under dis
pute between the Northwestern
and the Omaha & Ft. Dodge rail
roads, John T Duncombe, presi-
dent of the latter road, recently
made the following statement:
"The Northwestern seeks to
condemn a block which has been
purchased by the TT. Dodge &
Omaha for its depot. The North
western says it must have this
certain block and it wants the
Fort Dodge & Omaha to run to
the east a block over an overhead
crossing. Tie Denison case is a
test case, and if the Northwestern
should win, an attempt will be
made to compel the Fort Dodge
and O. to build overland crossings
all the way out of Council Bluffs. :"
AS to the expense of this Mr..
Duncombe says a slope of more
than 200 feet on each side of O
crossing would be necessary.

Railroad Development.

Kansas City Star: Few people
realize that it is but seventy years
since the first railway in the world
was finished and that at present
there are 100000 miles of con
structed railway. No oth,r fac
shows how fast and how far the
world has moved within the period
of a single human life. The pro-
gress of railroads has been the
measure of the advance Of NAH in
mechanical skill, in inventory in
knowledge of the forces Of nature
and in ability to command the res
sources of the earth. The great
and controlling nations Of the
earth are the nations with. the best
systems Of railway.

Organs VS.. Trusts.

AS a newspaper man we are
amused at the efforts of the mem
bers of the national newspaper
mems association to rid itself of
the cursed paper trust by petition
ing congress to remove the duty
from paper and wood pulp, the
material from which much of it is
made. The rapacity of the trust
has become 80 grasping that one
cent dAilies are likely to become a
thing of the past unlpss their
owners get relief. The editors Of
mary of these same papers have
shrieked themselves hoarse week
after week, asserting that trust
was a benefit and not blight; that
any statement to the contrary was
an ordinary democratic campaign
lie and SO on. Now, they are
making a bigger howl than any,
body. These gentlemen ought to
be conscientious and demand the
destruction of the whole tariff
SYSTEM by which the trusts are
bred. We should liks~ TO inquire
of the association what encourage
ment there is for congress to fight
the trusts when the President ap-
points the head Of the glass trust
to an important cabinet position?
