Catarrh Cannot Be Cured

With local applications, as they cannot

order to cure it you must take internal
remedies. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, and acts directly on the blood

Bryan On Hill.

In searching criticism of David B.
Hills letter to the Crescent Democratic
Club of Baltimore, on the occasion of a
dinner, Mr.. Bryan in the Commone,
closes with the following:
"Mr. Hill is so skillful in the use of
words that he should have no difficulty in
making his meaning plain. 1t is not
necessary for him to borrow republican
phraseology. He owes it to the party to
give expression to his views in clear and
unanibiguous language If he joins with
Mr.. Cleveland, Mr.. Whitney, ct. al. in
their efforts to republicanize the demo-
cratic party he will be tower of strength
to their side. If he intends to cast his lot
with the six millions and more who kept
the faith in 1896 and 1900 he should avoid
the verbiage that republicans and gold
democrats have employed to conceal their
sinister purposes.
There are others besides Hill who need
this wholesome advice.

$500 For An Opinion.

Grover Cleveland has been offering adj
vice to the Democratic party on every
opportunity lately, asking it to go back
to the old time democracy, aud such loose
talk as he is wont to indulge in, but say
ing nothing definite. Bryan offers him
IS for a definite opinion on any five of
the leading questions before the public
and deals him the following knock out
blow on the jaw:
'If he will clearly and candidly dedne
the Democratic principles about which he
is SO prone TO talk, the people can decide
for themselves whether he is the same
Mr.. Cleveland who turned the treasury
over to foreign financial syndicate and
intrusted ]. Pierpont Morgan with the
combination of the government vaults
and then supported the Republican ticket
because his administration was not
indorsed."

Government Ownership.

Since Morgan, Rockefeller & Co. have
gathered into railroad trust the great
systems of the country. which when COM
pleted will represent S, 900 600, 900 trust,
several of the daily papers are predicting
it will lead to government ownership.
The socialist papers used to have such
talk all to themselves, but the republican
papers are manifesting symptoms of
growing alarm.
The same parties have about completed
steel trust which will control every ore
mine, coal mine and iron mill in this
country. This industrial trust represents
81, 100, coo, 900 capital. This and the rail-
road trust are i'll the same hands, and
when got fairly i'll working order under
their new management will constitute
single trust, composed of all the railroads
and all the iron interests in the United
States, and probably of Canada.
Is it matter for surprise that republican
editors who can see an inch before their
nose and have independence enough left
to speak out are taking the alarm?
The money trust is brow-beating the
administration, driving it into a corner,
with one of their own select men in the
Treasury. This trust is destroying, or
preparing to, all government money and
establishing new unit of money, grain
of gold instead of the government dollar.
With such combinations as these all
working together how long will the peo-
pie be able to maintain their liberties2
Their property is already in the power of
these groups of trust magnates.

grazing, where. irrigation is the
method of supplying moisture in

THE TITLE COMPANIES.
Plans Under Consideration for Reduc-
ing Cost of Operation.

Plans Under COnSide ration for Reduce
ing Cost of Operation.
There are no new developments in the
relations OF the title companies of this
District. The prospect. however, is looked
being reached in the near future by which
there can be certain economies effected in
the present methods of doing business. The
principal change that can be made, other
than union of companies, is a reduction
in the cost Of doing business. At present
each company has it's own corps of exam
liners, doing precisely the same sort of
work, and each also has an Independent
set of records. By cooperation in these
particulars the cost of doing the same vol
ume of business will be materially lessened.
1t is not known to what extent 1t will be
possible to merge these companies. but
plans are being discussed, and gradually,
it is believed, that will be the outcome.
There is unanimity in the views, it Is
stated, Of Mr.. John Taylor Arms, the pres
ident Of the Real Estate Title Company.
and Mr.. w. E. Edmonston, the president
of the Columbia Title Company, to the
main result to be reached. The details are
to be considered.
1t may be that the conclusion will be
reached that a physical union of title COM
panies is not expedent, but that it will be
possible while keeping alive the indepen-
dent organizations to close up all the Of
fees but one. and have the entire business
pass through that one Office the net earn
ings to be divided among the companies on
some basis to be determined upon.
