In this prosaic day it has been keen
reading, the warfare, chivalry and
hatreds of old General Cassius NJ.
Clay. He was the remnant of day
that has gone in the South and of a
belligerent spirit that detied authority
and fought in the spirit of feudal
times. Long since the world passed
ON and left him behind. He never
desired to live, only in the spirit of
the past His energy, intellect and
combativeness was exhausted in fight
ing petty family feuds. when such
talents might have placed him and
continued him to the fore, where once
he was brilliant light in his coun-
try's service.

There are a few misguided individu-
ais who believe that a newspaper that
belongs to one or another of the two
great political parties, should etern-
allv howl the year through ON polite
al matters. They do not realize that
when an election is over the people
want to drop politics at once. Petty
politicians pirate of what patronage
they would give to paper solely de-
voted to the discussion of political
affairs. We can tell them that what
patronage they would give, would not
support a legitimate newspaper two
months out of the year. The fact is
that people who want to hear little of
politics. save at the recurring periods
of election. are those who mainly
support the public press. The news

The utter inadequacy of our city

fills the oft repeated predictions OF this
paper in past years. Men of marked
business incapacity, whose relations to
business affairs had been nothing
heretofore, of their sitting on the
councilmanic board, were placed in
positions requiring the greatest apti-
tude to provide means for a growing
city. The folly of elevating men of
extreme mediocrity in business affairs
as was done in many instances in the
early days. is finding its own penalty
in the excess expenditures now neces-
sary to provide for the city's needs.

THERE Is GREAT DANGER IN
CATARRH.
II Left to Ron Its Course Unchecked, It
Often Causes Death.

Catarrh scatters its poisons through
out the entire system. The stomach
and lungs are affected by the drop
pings that fall into the. throat and are
swallowed during sleep. Dyspepsia,
inflammation of the stomach, bron-
c tits and consumption are the results.
The blood also becomes contaminated
and carries the poisons to all parts OF
the system. Frequently in the more
advanced stages, the bones Of the head
become decayed and the air passages
ar :, a putrid mass and create a stencil
so foul and offensive as to be UNI
be- rable. The expression, rotten with
catarrh," is not overdrawn or exag-
gerated.
Stuart'S Catarrh Tablets strike at
the root of this terrible odious dis
ease and eradicate il from the system.
They are a constitutional remedy that
cleanses the system thoroughly of all
poisons and purifies the blood I'm
der their infiue, ce the head becomes
clear, the discharges at the nose and
droppings into the throat cease, the
lost sense of smell is restored the eye
brightens, the foul breath becomes
pure and sweet and the odious, dis
gushing disease is thoroughly expelled
from the system.
A Cincinnati man says: II suffered
the misery and humiliatio., of catarrh

aggravated that 1t Sc. iously interfered

at this point, "arise chiefly from his

gravely inform us that pecunia Is de-
rived from pecus; that the value Of
coins Is deducible from the names of
weights; that the modern pound ster-
ling is from the pound weight of sill
Yer, and the marc Of money from a
mark weight of silver; they talk ia
miliarly OF the single and double
STANDARD" under julius Caesar and
Augustus; and draw conclusions from
ancient history, the premises of which
cannot possibly be traced in Europe
farther back tn. the coinage legisla-
ton of the sixteenth century. Such a
school exhibits no claims to be re-
garded as authorities on either the
principles or the history of money
They have been taught to look upon
money as SO much metal, whereas it
is plainly an institution of law. 1t
is as though measures of length and
volume were regarded as SO much
wood, because it has been found most
convenient TO make yardsticks, pecks,
and bushels from that material. !.

with Roman emblems and legends up
on them. Six years later the Arabian
caliph, having disposed of the Mar

independence of Rome, and by token

gold coins with his own effigy, holding
a drawn sword, as afterwards did Ed

Although Rome for nearly thirteen
centuries kept the invariable ratio of

Del Mar, unless the purely economi-

HAY SENDS WARNING TO CUBA.
Slightest Amendment of the Recf-

Washington, March 2S.-Secretary
Hay has sent a warning to Cuba, that
the slightest amendment of the Cuban
reciprocity treaty by the Cuban con-
gress, even which proposes to make
Its ratification conditional on the
treaty going into effect during the
current calendar year, certainly
would defeat the convention itself.
since any amendment must be submit
ted to the United States senate, and
before that can be done the date fixed
for the final exchange CT ratifica-
tions, March 81, will have been passed.
Mr.. Squires, the United States min
lister at Havana, has transmitted this
note to the Cuban foreign minister,
and he is hopeful that it will be suffi-
cient to curb the desire to amend the
treaty. 1t is fully realized here that

would be affected injuriouslv by the

to defeat the ratification by attaching
amendments to the treaty.

RED ROADS AT THE FAIR.
The Rondways at the st. Louis
Worlds Fair to be bnaIasted
with ..Gumbo," or Clay.

st. Louis. March 2S.-Director-of-
Works Taylor has closed a contract
with the Western Clay Ballast CO., of
Aurora, ILL.,. for $4,000 cubic yards of
burnt clay ballast to be used in con-
structing roads in the Worlds fair
grounds. The material is bright red
in color, is hard as macadam, and
packs nicely under %follers. 1t is to
be used as macadam is being used at
present for the construction of roads
and walks. 1t absorbs ram as readily
as cinders and becomes a brighter red
in Consequence. The material is the
same as that used as ballast between
of railroads. 1t is known to railroad
men as "gumbo."
The material is made from a par
ticular kind of clay known as gumbo
clay by being burnt in a slow fire
made of alternate layers of slack coal
and clay. The clay pits from which
this supply will be drawn are located
at Chesterfield station, about eighteen
miles from St. Louis, in st. Louis
county, on the Colorado railroad. The
order comprises 1,700 carloads, the
stipulations being for the delivery of
from fifteen to t%hirty-five ears a day,
as desired.
This order indicates hat the streets
of the Worlds fair will be red unless
it is found that the material is not as
available for walks as it is for roads.
In the latter case it would be an easy
matter to surface the "gumbo" with
some other material, as it makes a
firSt-clasS foundation.
