old outgrown system of government. After many efforts she secured most admirable city charter; this provided for a small legislative council, with two chambers. responsible heads of de- partments and conferred great power on the mayor. This system worked well for awhile but through apathy and indifference on the part of the citizens, through political intrigue and corruption, abuses crept in.
 Some of you may recollect that a few years ago Chicago had a large county board numbering about 70 and the ad- ministration of Cook county affairs be- came a byword and a reproach. This administration, embracing the courts, sheriff's office. aims houses, hospitals. etc, concerned twice as many people as are found in Arizona. and California, put together. People said, Let us have small board, elected on gener- al ticket and we will be able to secure good men" The change was made but the new board soon drifted into the bad ways of the old one and it is only since the reform work of the last few years that the county has had a reasonably good administration Of it's affairs.

majority of the party stay p1acidly at home and wonder. with asinine stupid ity, how the party could do such a thing. The party did not do 1t. The place seekers did it. And it i4 just be- cause the party so often does not do 1t that the local boss with his organized minority is a power.
 You are busy men, appreciate that. |. but my contention is that any disei- plined man, trained to make the most of his time and ability, whu will sys- tematize his efforts may find at least an hour or two week to spend at his political club or in the study of public Lquestions. If 800 of your business and professional men and those who are interested in the welfare and progress of this community are organized they will be able to accomplish great work. They should have an efficient secretary working under the direction of an executive committee of say sev- | ep or nine. If you organize such a so- niety I would have one branch of com mittee composed or represetited by | thirty or forty young men. one half se- lected from most advanced class in the high school and the other half from | the young men occupying clerical or minor positions in the business houses and offices They are good workers and should be encouraged in wider study l of and to take a more active part in public matters. l A move of the kind suggested should not be a spasmodic one but a perti1a- nent organization. bringing together men of different political and religious views, different social and business positions and different nationalities but who have O common desire to profnote the best moral. social, political and financial welfare of the city and tetfi- tory. tls
 To whom may we look to mould our political life, to raise our moral stand ards and to lift that noble word "Poii- tics'' from the nire-i into which it has been dragged if not to the voting men
 just coming upon the stage of political life. Most of them have had advaf1t- ages immensely superior; to those en- | joyed by their fathers. Professor Bryce says, that in them lies our main hope of political bettet1nent. M
 When an intelligent committee waits upon an official he is. generally ready
 to listen and glad to have the benefit of their advice, and as a rule anxinus
 to please. When public offieiel does
 well you should encourage birfi: say d
 good word to him or write a letter
 and let him know that you are watch
 ing him and appreciate good work.
 The cause of good government loses
 by the wholesale and indiseriminate i abuse of public men and by constantly
 charging unworthy and vicious mo-
 tives; patriotic endeavor is discourag-
 ed, just criticism is robbed of its due weight and the moral sense of the com
 munity is dulled and calloused this condition affords the knave his real op-
 portunity.

Uric Acid Gravel

IS CAUSED BY THE KIDNEYS BE- ING UNABLE TO FILTER THE BLOOD OF THE NITROGEN AND THE WORN OUT COMPOUNDS WHICH CONTAIN TT.
 This form of deposit passes indifferently under the name of Uric Acid Gravel or Lithic Acid Gravel. The person who is subject to passing this kind of deposit largely is said to have the .'lithic" or uric acid condition. The urine of per sons in this state lets fall, after it has stood a while, q reddish, sediment like brick dust. This colorng substance may be more or less abundant. and gives to the deposits various shades, as dirty white, yellow, pink and red. The pure uric acid sometimes appears as fine sand, or may occur in large crystals. The urine is of dark copper color, about like brown sherry. and is very scanty.
 Persons who pass this kind of gravel largely arc apt to be troubled with iE- flarnnatory, complaints; with acidity of the stomach and heartburn: and some of wifi nd rheumatism

A CONTEMPORARIES TAUNT,

The Richmond Times Dispatch does not
undertake to deny the accusation we
have made against 1t of fragrant inc>n-
sistency In denouncing Mr.. Roosevelt
for acts which It has condoned In M.
Cleveland. Perhaps The Tlmes-Dls.
patch thinks by ignoring the charge it
can continue In this course: but we serve
notice on 1t that 1t shall confess, deny,
discontinue. or be constantly reminded Of
its inconsistent position. And the pub
lie shall be kept informed as far as
we are able to accomplish, In an humble
way that end.-Tazewcl Republican.
Our contemporary has not been dis
Greet in the method it has adopted to
draw out The Times Dispatch. We were
tempted to throw this clipping into the
waste basket when 1t was passed up to
our desk. for we do not like the tone
of it. We receive many papers In ex-
change and 1t escaped us that the Taze-
well Republican had raised this question
and charged The Times Dispatch with
inconsistency. We suppose 1t refers to
the fact alleged that President Cleveland
invited negroes to public receptions at
the White House. We do not approve
all that President Cleveland did. and We
do not SET up at his champion. But
there is this marked difference between
the attitude Of President Cleveland ana
that Of President Roosevelt towards the
negro question. Mr.. Cleveland treated
the negro with all needful consideration.
but he never treated him rs social
equal. nor did President Mckinley. The
latter, 1t Is said, appointed moro negroes
to office than President Roosevelt has
done But Mr.. Mckinley did not dofy
the whole South and did not force the
negro upon the South in an offensive
manner Little was said about negroes
in the White House in Mr.. Cievelan1's
time, or in Mr.. McKinley's time, be-
cause everybody knew how these gonttc.
men stood and that the invitations wire
mere Incidents In official life and with
out significance.
But President Roosevelt entertained a
him as a social equal. After that he
appointed negroes to positions where
they would have TO como in daily inter-
course with large numbers of whites. and
appointed them because they were ne
grocs. in recognition Of the negro race
and in defiance Of the whites. In short.
Mr.. Roosevelt has determined. as far as
he can, to wipe out the color line.
II our Tazewell contemporary does not
see the difference between the acts of
President Cleveland and the acts Of
President Roosevelt in relation to this
question, it must be blind indeed and
we arc not willing to pursue the discus
sion.

WEST VIRGINIA INCIDENT.

1t was stated In tho papers Of yester-
day that the West Virginia Legislature
would Investigate the alleged assault up
that body. There ought TO DO an invos-
tigatior, and It ought to BIO made rs
promptly as possible. 1t Is charged that
this gentleman, while driving peaceably
through the streets Of Charleston in a
hack was set upon by son Of Senator
savagely assaulted. 1t Is further charged
that tho assailants were permitted TO es-
cape in n private car beyond the borders
of tho State. and still further charged
that this was done ut the conniyance Of
the officers OF the law.
The whole story has an ugly aspect,
and, while vigorous denials are made by
Mr.. Hanna's party. the facts should all
come out. If these men committed m
assault as alleged, they should have boon
arrested at the time and punished. and II
because OF their money and influence
they were permitted by tho officers OF
the law to escape justice, the offense s
greatly aggravated.
The statements are conflicting, and at
this distance we do not make charges,
but we hope, in the interests OF law and
order that the whole ugly story will be
probed to the bottom. that the facts Will
be made public and that the men. Il
guilty, as alleged, will be punished as
they deserve.
