charged the republicans with striking
down one half of the metallic currency

Chairman Rebok, in closing, referred
to "the immortal w. j. Bryan as the

Medicines.
From Sylvan Valley News. Brevard, N. o.
1t may be a question whether the ed
itor of a newspaper has the right to
publicly recommend any of the various
proprietary medicines which flood the
market yet as preventative of suffer
ing we feel 1t a duty to say good
word for Chamberain's Collie, Cholera
and Darrhoea Remedy. We have
known and used this medicine in our
family for twenty years and have al
ways found it reliable. In many cases
a dose of this remedy would save hours
of suffering while physician is await
ed. We do not believe in depending i'm
plicitly on any medicine for cure. but
we do believe that If bottle of Cham
berlain's Diarrhoea Remedy were kept
on hand and administered at the incep-
ton of an attack much suffering might
be avoided and in very many cases the
presence Of physician would not be
required. AT least this has been our
experience during the past twenty
years For sale by druggists.

county funds can he violated for their
benefit
The trouble with the banks I'm the
past has been that they seem to have
been ready to pay interest on public
deposits provided only the interest did
not 60 into the public treasury. This
has been brought out in court several
times, where it has been shown that
the banks paid interest to treasurers
for the use of city and state money at
rates even higher than ever paid di-
rectly on state or city deposits. The
great reform worked by the depository
law was to abolish this practice of sub.
sidizing treasurers at the expense of
the taxpayers. Up to this time the law
has operated satisfactorily in this
county and no good reason exists why
its provisions should not continue to
govern the operations of the county
treasurer in his relations to depository
banks.
The county commissioners will be neg
lecting their duty if they do not take
this matter in hand at once and re-
store conditions as they were last year.
If the banks could afford to provide
depository bonds and pay per cent on
county balances in 1898 they can Ger
tainly do the same in 1899 without los
ing anything by the transaction.

that they have an extreme contempt for the

long, finding his soldiers so ready to run
when confronted by small bodies Of our
troops.
Philadelphia Ledger: Judging from the

Calumpit with a handful of mon will rank

PROTECT THE COUNTY FUNDS.

The Board of County Commissioners
should take immediate action to pro-
tect the funds in the county treasury
by requiring new bonds from the county
depository banks. While nobody has
the slightest idea that the banks in
which the county's money Is now de-
posted are in any danger whatever of
failing to pay promptly upon demand,
the law contemplates bonded security
for all county deposits and this part of
the law should be strictly observed.
In the controversy that has arisen
over the rate of interest to be paid upon
these deposits the board has no au-
thority under the law 10 make the con.
cessions requested by the bankers. Be
cause by combining among themselves
to choke off all competition the bankers
have succeeded in reducing the rate of
interest on state funds TO . per cent is

A coon RECORD

The record made by the New York
legislature, which ended its session last
Friday, is the best made by any legisla-
| ture of that state in Il number of years
and the credit for this is very largely
due to Governor Roosevelt. In the first
place it was well understood that no
legislation having a faint of iobbery
about it would receive the approval of
the governor and the effect of this was
to keep corrupt lobbyists away from the
state capital. This was n notable
change, for Albany has always been
infested by lobbyists during the ses-
sions of the legislature Their absence
from the late session was distinct
tribute to RoOsevelt's character for in
tegrity and devotion to the interests of
the public.
Among the important results of the
session was the restoration of the civil
service system, which had been rendered
practically worthless by the preceding
legislature. There is no more stalwart
supporter of the merit system than Gov
ernor Roosevelt and it is said that the
statute books of any state in the union
Another very important law is that tax
ing municipal franchises, the passage of
which was especially urged by the
governor. 1t Is estimated that this leg
islation will increase the local revenues
of New York City not less than SO 50O0,-
600 annually and in a similar proper
ton in all the municipalities in the
state, besides adding $5,00O,OOO to the
state revenues. The Tribune says of 1t:
'The passage of this bill is a great vic
tory for popular rights against special
privileges. 1t means Il more equal dis
| tribution of the burden of taxation. IL
means recovery for the people of some
share of the immensely valuable public
properties that through carelessness
have In years past with almost incon-
| ceivable wastefulness been diverted to
private use without due compensation. -
Such legislation in the public interest
will increase the popularity Of Governor
| Roosevelt ana strengthen the party,
while it serves TO show what can be ac-
complished by an executive who has an
eye single to the interests of the people.
