A pay Of Light

For woman's guidance is found in the
fact that DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton cures female weakness and the dis
eases of the delicate womanly organs
which darken the lives of so many wom-

chambers where women moaned in mis-

tive cure for the diseases which are
peculiar to women. 1t gives vigor and
vitality. II banishes nervousness, head
ache, and all the aches which come from

THE QUAY CASE.

The discussion now going on in refer
ence to the seating Of Mr.. Quay on the
credentials of the Governor Of the State
of Pennsylvania is attracting more
than ordinary attention.
Here is man who has been for many
years the head OF the Republican ma
chine in that State, whose methods and
record have been such that many of the
best citizens Of his own political party
have revolted against his tyranny and
corruption, and have been strong
enough to deadlock the Legislature in
spite of the most strenuous efforts to
elect him: a majority of the members
preferring to leave the seat vacant
rather than endure him longer, who
comes with an appointment from his
willing tool. asking for a seat in the
Senate in the face of the fact that the
men who were to be the Judges in his
case had deliberately and persistently
repudiated him. and turned him down.
The proposition now before the Sena-
tors Is. will they regard the wishes of
the people of Pennsylvania, as OK
tives.sor Will they violate all precedent
and do violence to their own convic-
tons of right and justice, or will they
rise above party feeling and party bias
and consign this arch manipulation to
the retiracy OF private life. The ma
chine is powerful. we know, and Matt
Quay is a big man in his party. and we
walt with some interest to learn II he
has pull enough in the United States
Senate to secure n seat to which he is
In no wise entitled.

for 10000 of It's soldiers have whipped
1000 Boers-a thing not to be overlook
cd or underestimated!
One can almost picture in his mind
the mighty British Lion wagging his
long and languid tail, shaking his CORY
rnnne and sharpening his needle like
claws for the giant struggle strug-
gle with brave. desperate, danger
Gus, able and active house dog! What
spectacle must that fight have been.
Tho diminutive figure of the little do
nestle beasts standing forthin the glare

ray of the King of the Forest.
England is, indeed, proud of her work,
and well she may be- Some armies
would have found difficulty in locating
such a small opposing force, but 1t ap-
pears that the English army has never
erred in locating the Beers from the
very first. They found Beers every
where. Indeed. they seemed unable to
hide! The great Lion needed no assist
ance in realizing that its enemy was In
the neighborhood.
And 1T is this, we presume of which
all England Is so proud The strategy
displayed in this behalf is indeed re-
markable and wonderful! But there
awaits another and more serious OBJ
staclc. England has so many troops
in South Africa that when they all get
into the Boer country there will not
be room enough for them to take ex-
ercise. The Boer population equals
about one of Londons suburbs. Where
will the soldiers stay? OF course, they
will take along with them enough food,
but they ought to arrange at once for
camping room in an adjoining and
friendly State. These are serious OBJ
stacles. and should not be overlooked
amidst the very natural rejoicing and
increased pride of the country over the
wonderful achievements OF their SOL
diers in South Africa.

WE SIMPLY JEST.

Were it not for the fear Of having a
pleasing jest mistaken for an unpardon-
able and most unwarranted criticism,
we should suggest that the Legisla-
ture must have a kindred sympathy for
"staggcrers" In appropriating the mag
nificcnt sum of $4,000 for the establish
ment of an epileptic colony.
Though the State treasury were pie
thoric with riches: though our hearts
went out in the deepest sympathy for
the sick and unfortunate, we would
counsel care and forethoughtedness in
setting presidents for future extrava-
CANT appropriations.
Epileptics are unfortunate people, but
1t is not believed to be a warrantable
ground for preference over the insane.
The victim has his mind, and often can
do much work and is not a menace to
his neighbors.
Let us go beyond this, and into that
province where none dare tread, save
in awe-the home of the insane. Lives
there q soul so dead, or heart SO mute,
as not to be touched by the pleading,
dependent, defenseless bit of flesh, once
so bright, active. and loving life, even
as others? Or is there man whose
heart does not quake in terror at the
mad mans frenzied grip?
In such place. leave hope behind.
all We who enter here" Once inside
those walls, prepared by the State for
the poor. helpless victim. his days are
all night, his hours are as one
If the State has money to spend, had
1t not better be even lavished upon
those unfortunate, helpless people
whose very condition appeals for pro-
| lection?
If we do not err, the accommodations
for the insane are inadequate. In any
event, IL money is to be appropriated
and there is mot enough to go around
let the insane hospitals be first consid-
cred most literally. The old State will
reflect credit upon herself by protect
ing her helpless insane.

Important things to consider Office
holders are politicians and able to cope
with questionable methods. Business
men who are wanted to serve the city
as Councilmen do not make politics a
business. and they neither have the in
clination, time or experience necessary
to look out for election frauds. which
are liable and probable IL there are
names retained improperly on the regis
tration books.
This Is the reason given by business
men for declining the use of their
names as Councilman.
Now. we feel SO certain that there Is
not candidate for a salaried office
who does not favor good running mates
for the Councils on the ticket, that we
take 1t for granted until they dispute
It, More than that, no candidate could.
without committing political suicide,
refuse to help in every effort to obtain
good Council.

begged all true Democrats to stand by
the party. They are doing it like men,
We want to see party harmony. We
want to see Democrats standing to-
gether for the doctrines of the party
and the principles involved. For the
sake OF harmony, then, let us have cor
rect and true registration books. Harsh
words and hard feelings do no good
Let us get together upon q basis thai
Will suit and please all. II the regis
Democrat will want them set right.
AS 1t is now too late to have new

left-TO PURGE THE REGISTRA.

good faith in any event. 1t will helr
the party and can do no harm.

SEEKING SOUTHERN TRADE.

The merchants and manufacturers Of
Philadelphia. painfully recognizing the
fact that they arc not having what
they consider a fair share of Southern
trade are trying to get together and
formulate some plan to bring about the
desired object The Philadelphia
Record has taken up this question and
says that while all agree as to what
should be done. there is sadly lacking
concert Of action. and if the merchants
and manufacturers of Philadelphia will
simply agree to make their coastwise
shipments by their own lines, and will
use their influence with Southern con-
signees to have their goods sent by
lines identified with the effort to
create permanent business relations be-
tween the South and Philadelphia, the
thing will be done.

CIT WAS A GRAND VICTORY,

From one end of England to the
other from the English channel 10 the
West: from John O'Groats to Land s
End" there has been cheering for the
Queen and n universal singing of the
National anthem.
Such is the news that comes to us
from Old England. And, indeed, one
could hardly he surprised. There has
been a great battle in South Africa,
against mighty odds, In which the val
orous arms of mighty England were su-
preme!
II was n glorious victory! Forty
thousand brave and daring English
men. after a weeks trying and stupen-
dous effort, have defeated and captured
General Cronje and Four Thousand
Beers! Ono must have had ten men on
top OF him ut once, to realize, fully. the
terrible trials of the English soldiers!
The Boers did not seem to mind it so
much. however!
We can understand the mighty rejoic-
ing In the country. where floats the flag
OF the most powerful nation on earth.
