Survival In the Coronation.

1t is so long since we elected our
nominal rulers that many of US forget
that king was ever on the footing of
Roman consul or an American presi-
dent. SYet a survival of that earT
practice is still to be heard in the coro-
nation service. "Sirs," said the arch
bishop of Canterbury after Queen Vic
toria had entered the abbey and shown
herself in the prescribed ritual to her
people on all sides, II here present to
you Queen Victoria, the und,oubted
queen of this realm: Wherefore all
you who come this day to do your hon.
age are you willing to do the same?"
IN this rite, now purely formal, we see
the remaining shadow of the old leu
tonic custom of choosing the most
capable or popular man in the nation
to be itsleader or ruler.-London Spec:

A CATCH IN HIS BACK.

Palmer, Oregon, April 14th.-W. j.
Uppendahl of this place has had great
deal of trouble recently with his back.
Every time he went to do the least bit
of lifting he used to have, what he
called "a catch" in his back. He says:
cit did not have to be very hard work
to give me such severe pain that I
could not move.
ST suffered quite long time before
heard of Dodd's Kidney Pills. used
four boxes and now can work as hard
as any one and my back is as stout and
strong as it ever was.
'sMy wife used some of the pills too
and she thinks there is nothing that
beats them.
81 can positively recommend Dodd's
Kidney Pills to anyone who has pain
in his back for i know they viii
cure it."

OPINIONS AND POINTERS.

Gen. Funston complains that the
papers lied about him. Perhaps he
would like a chance to "revise" his re-
marks-Indianapo News Qnd.).
When a man really does not want
to be nominated for president, as Mark
Hanna says he does not, he needn't
"trust that his friends will discourage"
the idea. There are surer ways of
lodging the unwelcome honor.-N. Y.
World.
We record with regret the Roose-
velt administrations first surrender.
Nor does the proposed promotion" of
Pension Commissioner Evans to the
diplomatic service make the surrender
any. the less abject.-Boston Herald
Qndo.
Dewey and Schley and Clark and
the others have won their individual
fame; Long will be remembered, if at
all, only as the secretary who allowed
their services to be belittled and who
held on to his office long after the gen.
eral sentiment of the country had de-
manded his etirement.-Philade
Times.
-sThe republican party" says
Henry Watterson, ''is syndicated par
ty. Arbitrary power is its motor, the
almighty dollar its trademark. If it
be not checked in the gait it is going
it will in the end surely Mexicanize the
republic. Well said, Massa Henry, and
well within the truth.-Indianapo
Sentinel.
Another Indication that he
knows has business is Hanna's an.
nouncement that he is not candidate
He understands the perils that beset
an early boom and how the people shy

The presidents surrender to the
anti-Evans pension grabbers is-com

that Evans is to be no longer in con

RANDOM NOTES.

Ivory may be rendered flexible by
sleeping it in solution of hydrochlor-
ic acid.
China is geologically a part of the
North American continent, but not ge-
geographically.
The giraffee, armadillo, and porcu-
pine have no vocal cords, and are,
therefore, mute. Whales and serpents
are also voiceless.
Joseph j. Mcintyre, of Brooklyn,
has invented a destructive war rocket.
1t is fired by dynamite and the bomb
scatters steel bullets among the en-
envy and is calculated to dislodge any
opposing forces who are in conceal
ment.
A Baltimore lady donned an SIS new
hat for a promenade and wondered
why the first admiring glances on the
street were changed to stares.
Eventually she found that the new hat
had dropped of and a search for it
proved vain.

EXPANSION AND PROTECTION.
The Republican Policy at War with
the Acquisition of Insular
Property.

Heretofore, when any great acqui-
sition of territory has been added to
the area of the United States-as in
the case of the Louisiana purchase, the
cession of Florida, and the later addi-
tions of territory ceded by Mexico and
purchased from the Mexican govern
ment after the close of the Mexican
war-the task of incorporation and
subsequent assimilation has been left
to the hands of a party with a genius
fitted to the occasion. Under wise dem
ocratic administration and without
stretching or straining of the limits
fixed by the constitution nearly all the
acquired territory has been state after
state, incorporated in the body of the
union, says the Philadelphia Record.
Following in the line of democratic
precedent, the republican party would
have had little or no difficulty in deal
ing with the people in the East and
West Indies when the islands of Spain
fell into our hands at the close of the
late war. But there was a departure
from ''plain duty" The free trade
which has been from first to last a
binding tie between the people of the
states and territories, and which, by
leveling all barriers to commercial in
tercourse has built up the national
prosperity, was denied to the popula-
tions of these islands. The principle
of protection was at war with the pol
icy of insular acquisition that followed
upon the ratification of the Spanish
treaty. The expenditure in blood and
treasure in the effort to superimpose
protection upon expansion is the awful
price the country has been obliged to
payfor the abandonment of democratic
presidents in refusing to carry the
constitution along with the flag. The
dishonor attaching to our present
treatment of the Cubans is only fur
Their application of the same disas-
trous policy.

Almost Too Good.

The republicans threaten to pass the
Crumpacker resolution for an investi-
CATION of suffrage conditions in the
southern states only, with view to d.
minishing their representation. The
democrats see in this a new "force
bill'' issue, and a desperate attempt on
the part of the republicans to get lone
more congress" out of the old sec
tional and race issue. AS this would
instantly solidify, past need of cam
paigning, every southern and border
state, and cause a sharp reaction
against the party in power among the
business interests that have large in
vestments at the south. it seems an
incredible folly. Coming on top of the
Philippine fasco. the denial of justice
to Cuba and the refusal to mitigate
any portion of the tariff for monopoly
only, it would be almost too much luck
for the reviving democrats.-St. Louis
Republic.

Fictitious.

It is very seldom that we pay much at
tention to reports circulated IN reference
to the virtue of patent medicine, as we
have always considered that reports of this
nature were more or less fictitious and got
ten I'D for the purpose of creating demand
from the public. But the publication In
various papers of the wonderful results OBJ
tanned from using that famous remedy st.
Jacobs Oil, and from the fact that 1t is a
remedy for outward application only, led
IS to make trials of it in our own family.
which had previously resisted every form
of treatment, was permanently cured by
Few applications of the Oil. Another was
sprained ankle, with severe pain. This
was instantly relieved and permanently
cured in few days by the use of st. Jacobs
Oil, while for severe toothache and neuralgia
it acted almost like magic, so quickly did the
pain depart after the Oil was applied. Our
own experience in using the Oil, as above
indicated, was SO highly satisfactory that
we determined in the interest of the gen.
eral public to make thorough local inves-
tigation among dealers and others who have
sold and used st. Jacobs Oil. Recognizing
Messrs. Taylor and Co. as headquarters for
all proprietary medicines, we called at their
Briggate Store, and on making known the
he stated that their three stores in Leeds
were selling more than a thousand bottles
of st. Jacobs Oil every week, and the trade
was constantly increasing--that 1t was the
most popular remedy sold and was highly
spoken of by everyone who used it. The
Manager said he had heard hundreds of
people say they had been permanently cured
of rheumatism, neuralgia, sciatica, and sim
liar complaints by the use of this famous Oil.
