Dogs In a ma i've or wild state never
bark. They imrtS whine, howl and
growl. The oise which we call bark
Ing Is found only among those that are
domesticated., Columbus found that to
be the case with the dogs he first
brought to America and left at large,
Tor on his return he tells us that they
had lost their propensity to bark Sci
entific men say that barking is really
an effort on the part Of the dog to
speak.

Drying preparations simply devel-
op dry catarrh; they dry up the secretions,
which adhere to the membrane ard decom-
pose, causing far more serious trouble than
the ordinary form Of catarrh. Avoid all dry
ing inhalants, fumes, smokes and snutfs
and use that which cleanses, soothes and
heals. Ely's Cream Balm Is such remedy
and will cure catarrh or cold in the head
easily and pleasantly. A trial size will be
mailed for 10 cents. All druggists sell the
soc. size. Ely Brothers, 56 Warren St, NY

irritate or cause sneezing. IL spreads itself
over an irritated and angry surface, reliev-
ing immediately the painful inflammation.
With Ely's Cream Balm you are armed
against Nasal Catarrh and Hay Fever.

Is not much to be expected from the ac-

the influence Of the trusts is supreme,
and without congressional action the

idea as tending to create a gigantic rail-

the American people to do away with
the trusts and thus to bring about a re-
turn to healthy and normal conditions
in the commercial life Of the country.
But this will be accomplished only when

HOPEFUL MR.. WARNER.

Congressman Warner Of Illinois will
probably be condemned for political
heresy because of his assertion that the
tariff is not sacred and that II the pro-
lection afforded has served its purpose
then this protection will be removed.
Every trust organ in this country-and
all ultra administration organs are trust
organs-will promptly proceed to hold
Mr.. Warner to account for even daring
to hint that there is q probability Of the
high protective tariff being abolished be-
cause it is no longer needed for the legit-
innate fostering Of American manufac-
lures. These organs know, of course,
that this is true; that the tariff now
serves only to further enrich the trusts
by continuing the excessive taxation of
American consumers for the benefit of
the trusts. But they know as well that
the trusts demand the maintenance of
the tariff, and that the word Of the
trusts is the law Of the Republican
party.
Mr.. Warmers Western optimism leads
him to declare, also, that he would not
be in the least surprised if President
Mckinley should recommend to the next
Congress amendment Of the Dingley
tariff to meet the changed conditions.
The Illinois Congressman is not to be
easily surprised, then, it must be as
sumed. The country at large would be
more than surprised, it would he thank
fully astonished, should Mr.. Mckinley
thus abandon his trademark, the brand
Of subserviency to the trusts, the wear
ing Of which has been the means Of
twice securing his election through the
financial backing and influence of the
trusts. In the platform now just adopt
ed by the Republican party in Ohio, and
dictated by Mark Hanna, who also die
tates the Presidents policies, it sees
anything but an indication of the lower
ing of the tariff under the Hanna-Mc
kinley regime.
The plain truth OF the matter is this:
The Dingley tariff will not be touched in
the way of just amendment by the
present Congress, representing admins
tration policies. 1t will continue to tax
the people for the benefit Of the trusts.
1t will probably in the near future pro-
woke Europe to trade war against this
country which will prove infinitely cost
~ to American exporters. But it will
stand just as it is SO long as the Re
publican party remains in control of
the Government. For the trusts are In
control Of the Republican party-and
the trusts demand the high protective
tariff.

Even Charles D. Drake, the Senator, was
once midshipman in the navy. Later. he
took up the study of law, and, Of course.
drifted naturally into politics. Every Mis-
sourian knows him as the author Of the
Drake Constitution Z. w. Drake knew
Lincoln personally, and served in an office
under him.
This Drake estate, It is said. represents
property in London. Elmer Drake does not
know its exact location. 1t Is said that
about stxty-fve years ago, when persons
first began looking up heirs. the estate was
roughly guessed at about 3Oo.0O0000. Since
then it has been found that with the ac-
cumulations of interest and increase in
value 1t overreaches the three billion mark.
Since the time OF Elizabeth's reign the es-
tate has not been in the courts Of chancery.
but has been in the hands Of the crown.

There seems to be no doubt whatever in
Elmer brakes mind that he IL a direct de-
scendant Of the famous sea captain. He
says:

about our relationship with Sir Francis.
When I was very young did not pay much
attention to the talk. Now I wish had.
looked at the matter in matter-of-fact
way, feeling that 1t was q natural thing
a man. 1t seemed that my grandfather was
not SO very proud of the fact. because he
was very religious. and thought Sir Francis
was too bold. However, he was proud OF
him, I could tell that easily.
He used to recite Sir Francis brakes
career by the hour. and l got to know It
Of the relationship that never Questioned
it and do not now. only wish We had
taken some special means to secure asrec-
Then Mr.. Drake told about Sir Francis

the American isthmus and viewed the Pa
cifc Ocean, praying God that he might be
to s vessel on ~ sba
the man who sank the Spanish Armada was
Queen Elizabeth's favorite. And then he
went into Sir Francis's general rowing Of
West India traffic. From his boyhood Sir
Francis has been to- him remarkable
character, and to show the tender side Of
name character. which he attributed to Sir
Francis. One of them was his taking on
board his vessel the half-starved members
Of the disastrous Raleigh colony. who had
spent their time and eaten up their food
and worn out their clothing fishing for
pearls, looking for gold and bewailing their
fate.
Another member Of the Drake family is
Mr.. brakes brother. Doctor N. 8. Drake OF
MI. Drake is stepfather Of Doctor Hugh

A FEW FACTS.

In the report furnished by Attorney
E. c. Lakeland, Jr., to Messrs. Blair and
johnson, counsel for the Committee OF
One Hundred formed to prosecute cleo
ton frauds, is given resume Of results
obtained by the prosecutions that have
been inaugurated. Nothing but facts
are considered. Bipartisan and unprej-
udiced action relieves the deductions Of
any charge Of partalitys In that re-
spect the report assumes an import
ance that should make thoughtless per-
sons. who may have been hoodwinked
by unwarranted accusations, look well
to their sources Of Information.
After thorough investigation, the At
torneys found only sixteen cases where
1t was thought possible to secure q con-
viction. Remembering that reward of
500 was offered for information, the
few indictments may be taken as evil
dence that Wholesale" frauds did not
occur. OF the sixteen persons indicted
six trials have been held, resulting in
four convictions and two mistrials. Both
Of the mistrials will come up again at
the October term Of court.
Closing, Attorney Lackland's report
gives credit where credit Is due by say
ing that 1.-The conduct Of the Circuit
Attorney, Mr.. Joseph w. Folk, and his
assistants, Messrs. Bishop and Maroney,
has been in the highest degree commend
able. They have shown a high order
Of ability and a zeal in the public serv-
ice which entities them to the highest
praise. There have been very serious
difficulties to overcome, not the least Of
which were powerful political influences
brought to bear In the interest Of the de-
PENDANTS, but all these have, been over
come by these officials, who have acted
throughout with an eye to the public
service"
In forwarding the report to the full
committee, Messrs. Johnson and Blair
unite in considering tine results OBJ
tanned very gratifying" Mr.. Johnson, q
Republican Of the Republicans, thus
c0mmends the work OF tine Democratic
of1ciais now In control Of the Circuit
Attorneys work.
These frank statements Of conditions
show that election frauds did occur aud
were prosecuted and punished. They
also show that persons making state
ments about wholesale" repeating and
the laxity OF the law either are lament
ably ignorant or fail to tell the truth.

AGAINST DISEASE.

]. Pierpont Morgan's gift of million
dollars to Harvard University for the
medical department emphasizes the in
terest that wealthy men are taking in
the perfection Of methods of combating
disease. Though the medical school Of
Harvard University Is primarily for in
struction, 1t is expected that a large en-
dowment for original research will be
secured.
Hardly two months ago Mr.. Rookie
Teller donated 100000 for experiment
and research, with the promise that
more would be forthcoming in the near
future. The money will be used to pay
expenses for securing remedies and pre-
ventives for contagious diseases, the
purpose being to make disease among
the poorer classes of less virulence and
frequency.
1t is not too much to expect food of
money within the next few years for
this purpose. Just as Andrew Carnegie
stands for more liberal encouragement
Of libraries, there Is reason to expect
that some philanthropist will lend his
millions to the support Of experts versed
in the science of health. The crusade
for general culture which the endow-
ment Of universities and colleges has
helped SO much may be diverted in q
small measure to this specialized chan
nell
Wonderful possibilities lie within these
princely gifts. There are problems Of
disease to be solved that have batfled
the efforts Of scientists for centuries.
There are methods to be perfected
which, when completed, will make the
present manner of doing things perhaps
seem crude. Biology has hardly been
touched. The firm shores Of knowledge
have not been reached in many direc-
tions.
In this prediction Of millionaires to
encourage the arts and sciences and
charities is found a redeeming feature
Of the methods by which they secure
their wealth. 1t is easier to collect
money from one individual than from a
thousand. There are monuments to the
generosity. Of wealthy men scattered
over the hand that would not have been
possible 100 years ago. If disease is
abolished. in the course Of their bene-
licences; another cause for forgetfulness
Of their. mistakes will have been given.
