HOPEFUL VIEW

The hopeful view consump-
tives take Of their own cases is
strongly in their favor. Each
year is showing a larger per-
.centage of cures.
One Of the best reasons for
good hope IS the record Of
SCOTS Emulsionas a medicire
for consumptives. So long as
the system IS strong enough to
use medicine Of any kind It can
use SCOTS Emulsion.
The reason for its helpful
ness in this disease is because
of its long tolerance BY the
patient; one does not tire Of.
at as quickly as . other medi-9
.cines and that that is !; where the
great benefit comes.

QUhDRENNIAL SESSIONS.

Although the proposition has been very
clearly stated time and again. there is
n1anifestly a misunderstanding as to the
meaning of the ordinance proposed in
the Constitutional Convention with ref
erence 10 quadrennial sessions Of the
General Assembly. If this ordinance pro.
vided that Legislature should not as
ssmble oftener than once in four years,
we should be opposed to it, but it pro-
vides no such thing. In simple terms it
provides that the General Assembly shall
not be required to convene oftener than
once IN four years, but it is further pro-
vided that If the necessity should arise
the Legislature may be convened once
in two years, or for that matter once in
each year.
With a new Constitution and new
Code and with the burden of private bills
lifted from the shoulders of the General
Assembly, in all human probability there
will be no necessity for another session
of that body for four years after the next
session shall have completed its work and
adjourned. If there be no necessity for
it, why put the State to the expense of
a session two years thereafter? But if
the necessity should arise there is ar1-
pie provision in the proposed ordinance
to meet it.

lecture in Chicago last Sunday. in which
he said that the doctrine of Socialism was
spreading rapidly in Europe. I'm our
country. however" he went on. ':the Ideas
have not so far advanced. The training
given to the Americans is responsible for
this. From their childhood tho young
Americans are taught that all men are
free and that al, have equal opportunities
of advancement. The individual idea is
strongly nurtured, and with a history such
as the country has i. is difficult to mako
prcselytes. The res,iits2sof! the last cleo

We heartily second the nomination. Mr.
Valentine is not only a noble sculptor, bit
he is intensely Southern. and he loved
the Confederate cause with all his heart.

MILES OF HARVESTING
MACHINES.

At this the dawn of the goth Gen.
tury, when the business enterprises
are assuming such colossal proportions
it is not surprising to find that the
shipments from. these great industrial
establishments increase proportion
ately. Perhaps the greatest single
shipment on record was made over the
Boston & Maine Railroad, on May IA,
whena train of So cars, loaded with
machinery from the Walter A. Wood
Moving and Reaping Machine Com
pany was shipped from Hoosic Falls,
to Chicago. The details of the ship
ment are as followS:s
The route was over the Boston and
Maine Railroad from Hoosick Falls to
Rotterdam, thence to Buffalo over the
New York Central, and from Buffalo
to Chicago over the Lake Shore and
Michigan Southern. Fifty.eight cars
of the last named route were used to
contain the shipment, and were run
solid to Chicago, being distributed
from there rs follows:-7 cars to Illi-
nois: 4 to Missouri: 9 to Nebraska; 7
to Iowa; to Minnesota; 8 to South
Dakota; l to Wisconsin; 12 to Kansas;
to North Dakota. The run was
wholly by daylight, and the train was
decorated with flags and bunting as
we'll as placards bearing the advertise
ment of the shipper. The train was
given an enthusiastic send.of at Hoo
sick Falls. Stores were closed, factO-
ries ceased operations, and whistles,
bells and cannon announced the de-
parture of this great freight ship
ment.
One of the Boston & Names most
modern freight locomotives, No. 1855,
was used in hauling the train, which
left Hoosick Falls at 9.27 a. m. and
arrived at Rotterdam at 1.20 p. m.
The shipment consisted of 5000 har-
vesting machines, which If placed end
to end, would extend over distance
of five miles. The total way-billed
weight of the shipment was 1875, 400
pounds, and the freight charges am
ounted to S9,692.S2, while the value
of the machines Is estimated at about
s125,OOO This train occupied about
two days in crossing New York state,
and at every place from starting point
to destination, there was great inter-
est manifested. ...l.. ..y,.u

San Francisco, May 25. - At 10
o'clock this forenoon President Nc
Kinley and party left here for the
journey to Washington, Mrs. McKin-
ley's health having sufficiently i'm.
proved to permit her to endure the
fatigues of travelling. The start was
made according to schedule and there
is no stop over until Washington is
reached. The President does not in.
tend to leave his train. No side trips
will be made not even to Salt Lake or
Denver. The earnest desire of the
President and Mrs Mckinley is to re-
turn to the White House as soon as
possible. The "trip will not be made,
however, on rapid time, but rather
leisurely fashion in order to lessen
the burden for Mrs. Mckinley.
The two trainee nurses who have been
in attendance upon Mrs. Mckinley will
accompany her to Washington.
