It is not too much 10 predict that the
state of Alabama will take rapid strides
forward toward general prosperity, fol-
loving the adoption and signing by the
Governor of the new election law, which
nsures the perpetuity of government in
the hands of the white people eliminating
the black vote as balance of power.
Hereafter investors, particularly Northern
investors will not have that fear for the
safety of their investments which exists
to greater or less extent whenever there
is a possibility that ignorance and vice
may get the upper hand of intelligence
and education in the government. Ala
bama is particularly rich state in nat
ural resources. She can produce coal and
manufacture iron and steel in competition
with the world. and grow rich al it. But
coal and iron are far from being all of
Alabama's mineral riches. A geological
map of the state, prepared by the state
geological bureau, shows that pretty near
ly every mineral to be found in the Unit
ed States is to be found in Alabama.

Spain is a little in doubt as to what she
shall do with her indemnity of $4,000 900
from the United States. There are a plenty
of places in which it might be used, in
paying off a small portion of her indebted
ness; but there seems to be a growing SEN
timent in Spain among those who viii
have the handling of the cash that the
country needs a new navy, and that it
would be good thing to build one with
the American money. No doubt there
would be more "rake-off' in building ships
than there would be in paying debts.

ULCERS FOR
So YEARS
Eleven on One Limb at One Time
With Excruoisting Pain. All
Remedies Tried, and Number
less Physicians Little Benefit.
CUTICURA Speedily Cures.

Ny mother has been a victim to ulcers from
varicose veins for thIrty-fve years. Eleven of
these terrible sores have existed at one time on
the limb affected. Excruciating pain and intense
suffering were endured, with all sorts of remedies
on trial and numberless physicians calls and
prescriptions applied, but all practically with
but little benefit. However, at last the remedial
agent was found in CUTIcURA (ointment), which
surely proved its weight in gold, aleviating pain
and causing healing processes to commence and
a cure speedily effected. She has, also, used
CUTICURA with marked benefit in erysipelas
of the face and eczema. The CUTICURA SOAP,
also, has established a record only as the best
cleansing, purifying, and healing in its nature,
having proved itself most excellent and valu-
able auxiliary to the CUTIoURA (ointment).
would remark that this testimonial is entirely
unsolicited, being a voluntary contribution for
humanity's sake, and the commentator of the
CUTIcURA REMEDIES to the fullest confidence,
being satisfied of their purity, genuineness, and
almost miracles wrought.

to the amount of arbitrary power exer-
cised by the speaker of the House of Rep
resentatives and makes a contrast with
the Vice Presidents lack of power. Ii
says; If this one-man power, therefore.
opposes a great public measure it is almost
impossible to enact it into law. If Mr.
Reed fights the Nicaragua canal it is a
serious menace 10 the accomplishment of
that great work. Il would be an outrage
to see the will of the people thwarted bv
the speaker of the House. VIII the peo-
pie continue longer to submit to conditions
in Congress that reduce their Vice Presi-
dent TO a nonentity while clothing the
speaker with despotic power and afford
ing him the opportunity to nullify the will
of the nation?

hibit the annexation of Cuba If her peo-
pie, of their own volition, should ask for

Several of his intimate friends stated
today that while his condition was
serious, it was not critical These
friends, however. reluctantly admitted
that they believe his career as a great
public speaker was nearing the end.
Dr. SchaufIler. the physician who ac-
companies him, said before leaving
that in his opinion the evangelist 5
condition was not essentially worse

During the Week They Acted Upon One
Hundred and Ninety Nine bills.

anu Nlnt htlih.
Pottsville. Nov. 1s.-The Grand Jury this
morning submitted their report to court and
Judge Henning thanked the members
warmly for the manner in which they faith
fully performed their duties. The report is
as follows:
To the Honorable. the Judges of said court :
The grand inquest of the Commonwealth
Of Pennsylvania, inquiring for the county of
Schuylkill for November sessions A. d. 1899,
respectfully report as follows:
We have acted upon 100 bills Of indictment
submitted to us of which number 119 have
been returned as true bills and so as not true
bills. In nearly all cases where we have had
the disposition of the costs in ignored bills,
we have placed the same upon the prosecutor
or prosecutriK.
We deplore the fact that many cases Of a
trivial character continue to find their way
into the courts, notwithstanding the plead
ings Of previous Grand Juries upon the sub.
ject. Many of these prosecutions we have
discovered, by sworn testimony, have been
brought for the purpose of increasing the
fees of cOnstables and Justices, rather than
the public morals should be the better pro-
noted or the public peace, the better main.
| tanned. One Justice in particular, the Jury
unanimously agrees, is deserving of severe
censure for forwarding case of such trivial
character as to excite their contempt The
Justice in question is Justice Malta. of West
Mahanoy Township, and the jury earnestly
requests that both his and the constable's
fees be disallowed in the case.
We return thanks to the Honorable Court
and its several officers for assistance ren,

All of which is respectfully submitted
