Blood.

We live by our blood, and on
it. We thrive or starve, as
our blood is rich or poor,
There is nothing else to live
on or by.
When strength is full and
spirits high, we are being re.
freshed, bone muscle and brain,
in body and mind, with con-
tinual flow of rich blood.
This is health.
When weak, in low spirits,
no cheer, no spring, when rest
is not rest and sleep is not
sleep, we are starved our blood
is poor; there is little nutri-
ment in it.
Back of the blood, is food,
to keep the blood rich. When
it fails, take SCOTS Emulsion

accomplished along lines that will
satisfy the peope. BY It's tariff lsgis.
lation the Republican party has built
up the trusts and now the trusts con
troll the party. The tariff revision the
people demand is reduction Of those
schedules that favor the trusts and
that is precisely whst the trusts will
not permit. The party managers ap-
preciate this fact and will use every
endeavor to divert public attention
from the real issues but they "can't
fool all of the people all of the time I"

themselves as confident that the time

The withdrawal of Colonel Wylie
Jones, State Chairman of the De

from what promised to be a bitter
senatorial contest, in favor of General
Wade Hampton is regarded here as a
most graceful courtesy to an old man
who has always been steadfast in his
adherence to his party, even to the
extent OF refusing 10 accept office
from the Mckinley administration
and at a time when his financial affairs
would have rendered the Office most
acceptable. But it is regarded as
even better politics. A contest be-
tween Jones and McLaurin would
have had most injurious effect on
the party in South Carolina particular
ly at time when both Roosevelt and
Hanna are using every expedient to
build up brand new "whte mans
Republican party in that state. If
General Hampton, who is s., years
old, can be persuaded TO accept and
Senator Tlllman acqueses, as it is be-
lleved he will, Colonel Wylie's course
will be regarded as a coup worthy of
reward. Senator Hannas appoint.

The proposed Amendment to the
Constitution in the interest of personal
registration is one of the most import
ant matters that will come before the
people at the November election.
While the general interest revolves
around the election of the State and
County officers, the fact should not
be lost sight of that the Registration
Amendment is a direct stride in the
direction of reform in the methods of
conducting the elections in Pennsyl-
vania. The defeat of the amendment
at the coming election will prevent its
relntroduction in the Legislature with
in five years.
The Registration Amendment was
passed by the Legislatures of 1890
and 1901 and now it comes before
the people for their approval. 1t was
introduced and supported by the Un-
ion Committee for the Promotion of
Ballot Reform and the Merit System
in Pennsylvania. Although a move
ment in the interest of ballot reform
the proposed amendment appears to
be without opposition from any OF the
political parties or the prominent
leaders. This may be explained by
the fact that the adoption of the
Amendment by the people does not
work any immediate change in the
election laws. The effect of the
Amendment is merely to open the
way for future legislation and it will
remain for succeeding Legislatures to
enact laws providing for personal reg
istration of voters.
Another fact that must work to the
advantage of the amendment is that
1t is without partisan advantage. The
enactment OF personal registration
laws would have like effect upon all
the political parties. This assertion
is based upon the results of the oper-
alton of personal registration in New
York, Massachusetts and other states
where it is requirement of the cleo
tion system.
The Registration Amendment has
been endorsed by the new Union
Party, the Democratic Organization
and the independent element gener-
ally. AT the same time many indi-
vidual leaders of the Republican
party. notably Gov. Stone, Supt. of
Public Grounds and Buildings T.
Larry Eyre, of Chester County, Col.
lector of the Port c. Wesley Thomas,
of Philadelphia, and Representative
"Tom" Cooper, of Delaware County,
have expressed themselves as heartily
in favor of the Amendment.
1t only is question of time when
personal registration will be intro
duced in Pennsylvania. Its public
advantage is derived from the fact
that no one who has not taken the
trouble to register in person can vote
at any general or local election. 1t
likewise is an invaluable safeguard to
honest voting.
The only source of possible oppo-
sition to personal registration would
be in the country districts. The pro-
posed Amendment discrminates, how
ever, between the cities and the
country, enabling the Legislature, in
providing for personal registration, to
conhne it to the larger cities of the
The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1901-10-17
Commonwealth.

The vote upon the Amendment is
separate from that for the State and
County officers. 1t probably will be
indicated upon the ballot by the
words "For the Amendment" or
against the Amendment"
