than usually falls to the lot Of a single
administration, the present Cabinet has
less legal talent than almost any Presl-
dents Cabinet has ever had. AS it now
stands, Secretary Long and Attorney
General Griggs are the only lawyers III
the Cabinet. Secretary Hay and Post.
master General Smith are newspaper
men; Secretaries Gage and Hitchcock,
are business men, and Secretary Wilson
~ practical farmer and agricultural
expert. Another good LAWYER was
needed in the Cabinet, and President
Mckinley in common with nearly
everybody else, thinks that Mr.. Root
will fill the bill. If public commenda.
ton counted 10" anything il would be
certain that Secretary Root would be
come very popular official, but it will
really depend largely upon what occurs
in the Philippines. If we win IN all
the fighting and no scandals develop in
connection with the army over there,
everybody will sing Secretary Root s
praises. But if things so wrong in any
way when there is lighting on hand the
American people have habit, as Old as
the government, Of holding the Secre-
tary OF War responsible, and the new
Secretary will have to take his chances.
In any event, he is not likely to find
the War Department bed OF roses.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.

FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.
WA8nINGToN, july. 9TH 1899.
The President aud Mrs. Mckinley
will 20 TO Lake Champaign this week,
ior an indefinite stay; depending upon
Mrs MckInlcys health, which has
been in IA very unsatisfactory condition
since her return from Massachusetts,
several weeks ago
Admiral Dewey having cabIcd his
approval of the plans submlttlcd to him
through the courtesy Of Secretary Long,
Of the Washington commlticc.of 100 for
his reception to Washington and the
presentation to him of the sword voted
him by Congress, the committeeman are
working to make the event II notable
one, and everybody seems disposed to
heI p them. No exact date can be set
Tor the reception yet, but inaSmuCh as
this reception is to be Il SEM. official a(-
fair, participated IN by the President
and his Cabinet, and all the prominent
public men who happen to be in WASH
Ington, at the time, a strong effort will
be made to get the Admiral to come
direct to Washington, without stopping
in New York, and let the Washington
reception be the first he receives in the
country. and the chances favor success,
as both the President and Secretary Of
the Navy personally favor that idea,
However, the matter will be decided by
tho Admiral alone, as no orders will be
issued to influence him.
A great many agree with "Corporal"
Tanners summing up Of the forcing of
Secretary AIger, whose resignation
takes effect August Isl, out Of the Cab
lnet-"Alger passes. but the trouble
continues. Other mistakes will come
in the conduct Of the War Department.
Reflective minds will sec then that he
was not to blame. The fact is, the
trouble is lmbcdded in the system, which
is travelling in the ruts of antiquity.
Until the system changes, the trouble
will 80 on" That there is truth in this
statement of the case is known to every
man familiar with the War Department,
and that may be one reason why none
Of the other members Of the Cabinet
were willing to become Secretary of
War. The only thing surprising about
Secretary Ayers resignation was that
he stood the pressure as long as he did
before handing 1t to the President
Those who have seen similar fights
made upon Cabinet officers had been
predicting for months that he would be
bound 10 resign eventually.
1t is not difficult to understand why
| the President chose Mr.. Elihu Root, Of
New York, an eminen; lawyer, to sue
ceed Secretary AIger, at the head of
the War Department. While this ad-
miniSslalion. as a result Of the War with
Spain, has had more legal questions,
| and more 1iHicuIt ones TO deal with

The amateur detective is as humorous


Sherlock Holmes, is man who reads

step he takes is a step to success,
It's much the SAME way in the icteC-

LAUNDERING along over misleading syInp-
toms, The specialist goes hight to the real
cause and puts an arresting hand upon
the disease. 1t is in such a way that
DR.. Il. V. Pierce, chief consulting plNsi-
clan to the Invalids Hotel and Surgical
Institute, Buffalo, N. V, succeeds i'll
hunting out and arrcsting diseases, where
the less experienced practitioners fail.
More than thirty years of special study
and experience have enabled DR.. Pierce
to read symptoms as easily and as truly as
the Indian reads trail which is without
a HUT for less acute vision than his.
Any sick person can consult DR.. Pierce
by letter absolutely without charge
Each letter is read in private and an
swerea i'll private. Its contents are held
as sacredly confidential 1t is answered
with fatherly feeling as well as medical
skill and the reply Is sent sealed in IA
perfectly plain envelope, that there may
be no third party to the correspondence.
Thousands have taken the first step to
health by writing to DIR. Pierce. No
writer ever regretted writing Ninety
eight in every hundred treated have
been positively cured. If you are
afflicted with any old obstinate all
