Ireland's. Population Decreasing.

The recent census Of Ireland shows a
marked decrease in its population, which
has been largely attributed to the fam
inc throughout the island causing the
death of thousands of people, and fore
ing many others to emigrate. This
brings to mind quite forcibly the abso-
lutte necessity of having plenty of good
food if we would prolong life, but after
all it is not question of the amount
eaten that makes the people strong and
healthy, but the way it is digested.
Dyspeptic people cannot enjoy their
meals, and consequently always feel de-
pressed, irritable and nervous. They
should try Hostetter's Stomach BitterS
at once 1t is a specific remedy for
fiatulency, belching, indigestion, dys-
pepsia and nervousness, and is backed
by record of fifty years of cure.

The Constitutional Amendments.

The people of West Virginia will
be called upon at the election next
month to vote for or against the adop-
ton of FIVE amendments to the Consti-
tuition of this State. The REG1sTeR
advocates each of them as worthy and
advises that the voters cast their bal
lots in favor of them.
The first and second amendments
make the Secretary of State an cleo
tive officer at a stated salary, and re-
ouire that the fees of his Office and OF
the Auditor be turned into the State
treasury. For years there have been
great objections to the enormous sum
in fees these officers receive and it has
sometimes caused considerable scan
dal. 1t is said that under the present
system the emolument of the Secretary
of State is more than the salaries OF
all the other State officials combined.
Everyone interested in economy should
vote for these amendments.
The third amendment provides for
FIVE judges of the Supreme Court IN
stead of four, and gives the Legisla-
ture authority to fix their salaries.
1t is a palpably foolish thing to have
an even number of judges, for a d.
vided court may prevent decisions in
very important cases. There ought
manifestly to be an odd number, and
as our State is growing the number
ought to be increased to five. The
proposition to have the salaries fixed
by the Legislature is a proper one.
The present salaries are too low, and
and it is not likely that the Legisla-
ture will be extravagant. The sala-
ry ought to be enough to secure capa-
bic men for this high Office.
The fourth proposed amendment is
to limit the irreducible school fund to
one million dollars, when that sum is
reached all taxes now going to this
fund to be turned into the treasury to
the credit of the general school fund.
1t is believed by many that the accu-
mutation of fund larger than mil
lion dollars is unwise, as the opportu-
nifty of the State to invest the money
is limited and causes the Board of
Public Works much anxiety. Some
express the belief that we are now
taxing the present generation to pay
for the schooling of the next genera
ton. There are those, however, who
oppose the amendment, and point to
the fact that the most progressive
States continue to accumulate this
fund. Governor White strongly fav-
ors the amendment, and says: ats
administration is hazardous and its
accumulation on present lines unwise.
The fifth amendment provides for
the registration Of the voters of the
State. There should be no question
as to the ACCESSIBILITY of this amend
ment, as it tends towards fairer cleo
tons and seeks to prevent fraud in
voting. 1t will shut out many dis
honest vote, and under its provisions
temporary residents who are imported
for the special purpose of voting will
be out of job, 1t ought to be al
most unanimously adopted.

typical South African Store.

O. r. Larson, of Bay Villa, Sundays
River, Cape Colony, conducts a store
typical of South Africa, at which can
be purchased anything from the pro-
verbal "needle to an anchor" This
store is situated in a valley nine miles
from the nearest railway station and
about twenty-five miles from the near
est town. Mr.. Larson says: Il am
favored with the custom of farmers
within a radius of thirty miles, to many
of whom have supplied Chamberlain S
remedies. All testify to their value in
a household where a doctors advice is
almost out of the question. Within one
mile of my store the population is per-
haps sixty. OF these, within the past
twelve months, no less than fourteen
have been absolutely cured by Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. This must
surely be a record" For sale by Rein

The great strike of anthracite coal
miners is still unsettled. The latest
news this morning is that President
John Mitchell went to New York yes
terday on mission that is supposed
to be very important one looking to
an end Of the strike, but nothing def
mite has been given out.
Last Friday the presidents of the
coal-carrying railroads and individual
operators on the one side, and Presi-
dent John Mitchell and several of his
colleagues Of the Mine Workers I'm
ion on the other, met with President
Roosevelt in Washington to discuss
the situation. President Mitchell pro-
posed to refer the controversy to a
board of arbitrators to be appointed
by President Roosevelt, and offered to
send the miners to work pending a
decision and accept the result what
ever it might be. The operators ut
terly refused to recognize the miners
or transact any business with them,
and the only thing they would agree
to was unconditional surrender. They
were naughty and bold and defiant,
and utterly declined to agree to any
suggestion of arbitration. On the
contrary, they demanded that the
President send United States troops
to overcome the miners.
On Monday Governor Stone of Penn
sylvania, in response to assertions of
the operators that the strikers pre-
vented many miners from working
who desired to do SO, called out the
entire National Guard of the State
10000 soldiers in ALTO guard the
miners and protect those who want to
work. The miners say that their lines
are firm and unbroken and that this
action will not produce coal.
Tuesday President Roosevelt made
request of the miners that they re-
turn to work on the operators terms,
and promised that he would see to it
that a commission was appointed to
investigate their grievances with
view to securing congressional action.
The miners very naturally declined
tLis proposition. They say that they
will not surrender-so abjectly and pro-
pose to stand firm until they have
some assurance that their rights will
be respected.

CONSTITUTION or no Constitution
the government is justifable in pro-
tecting its citizens from the outrage
Gus extortion and brutality Of the coal
operators. The mines ought to be
seized and coal produced at fair prices.

THE voters will next month have a
chance to express themselves concern

evils that they breed. And yet blind

vote the same old way.

The tariff on coal is for the benefit
of two classes Of coal operators-the
anthracite owners who are now so
brutally defying the government, and
the soft coal operators who are taking
advantage of the opportunity to rob
the people by charging extortionate
prices for their coal.
