Peruna stops the catarrh and prevents
the discharge of mucus. This is why Pc
runa is called tonic. Peruna does not
give strength by stimulating the nervous
system a little.
1t gives strength by preserving the mu-
eous membranes against leakage.
l. 1t gives strength by converting the blood
fluids and preventing their draining away

Constant splitting and blowing the nose

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Philadelphia Record Oem.)
says: THE strongest count in the
indictment on which judgment was
rendered against the beef trust is the
charge that the trust bid up the
prices of live stock for a few days
at a time to induce large shipments,
and then ceased from bidding to OBJ
tain the live stock thus shipped at
prices much less than it would bring
in their regular way. Men capable
of such knavery deserve the contempt
of every honest man in the land. There
ought to be some way of furnishing
invented for them
The New York Times (Dem) says:
1T is no more necessary than it is
easy to account for Senator Morgan.
We may charitably suppose him to be
the victim of a fixed idea. But con-
slider Quay, and consider him from
his own ostensible point of view. He
avows that it is his spite with regard
statehood bill that has made him re-
solve to hold up the Senate until the
Senate yields its Judgment to his on
that measure. Anybody is at liberty
to impute even worse motives to him,
and when the question is of Quay, the
worst motives are always the most
probable. But on his own showing he
is engaged in holding up the Senate
out of spite. If he succeeds he will
bring the Senate not merely into odium,
but into ridicule and contempt by
showing that it is helpless in the face
of a single senator, who is actuated,
on his own showing, by base and un-
worthy motives and who may be actu-
ated by motives still baser and more

Senate to devise some means of fruS-
trating such an attempt. If it stands
Quay's impudence, il will stand any
thing"
The Chicago Chronicle (Dem.) says:
There are two very good reasons why
we should not enter into reciprocity
treaties at all. One is because such
treaties are in the nature of revenue
legislation, and under the constitution
such legislation is not within the prov
ince of the treRty-making organs of
the government, but belong exclus-
lively to Congress. Indeed, as the con-
stitution has always been construed,
such legislation must originate in the
House of Representatives. Another
reason is because such treaties are al
ways framed to favor special inter-
ests at home and abroad and never
to benefit the American people as
whole. The Cuban treaty affords a
good Illustration. II reduces the duty
on Cuban sugars 20 per cent If it
should become effective II would not
reduce the price paid by American
consumers of sugar one mill on the
pound. because the full duty on all
other imported sugar would keep up
the price. The Cuban grower and the
American importer-one or both-would
be the only parties benefited In like

duties on American products shipped
TO Cuba would benefit only special
American interests. and not the people

TURPENTINE IN MEXICO:

A trade paper published in the City
of Mexico announces the discovery in
that country of an area of long-Ieaf
yellow pine timber covering approx
mately 5000 square miles. An expert
enced turpentine operator from North
Carolina who has seen the timber pro-
nOunces il TO be as fine as any he ever
saw in either of the Carolinas or Geor-
gia. The belt examined by the North
Carolinian is from twenty-five to six
ty miles wide and 40 miles in length.
The timber is virgin. No ak has ever
been put into it. Many of the trees are
three to four feet in diameter, reach
ing a hight of $50 feet. The North
Carolinian declines to state the loca-
ton OF this turpentine timber belt,
saying that he has found a gold mine
and proposes to work it himself. The
natives who own the land do not know
anything of the turpentine business
and have no idea of the value of their
possessions. The shrewd "tar-heel."
therefore. proposes to buy the land at
a low figure and get rich in the naval
stores business in Mexico.
And this he will probably be able to
do. He will have the benefit of ex-
tremely cheap labor. The current rate
of wages that he would have to pay
his Indian help is about 40 to so cents
a day, silver, which is equal to about
20 to % cents United States money, or
gold. He estimates that he will be
able to<'clean up" at least $500 per year
on every hand employed. In this coun-
try the season for soft or dip" tur-
pentine extends over about three
months. In Mexico, according to the
North Carolinian, the trees will yield
dip the year around, because there
is no very cold season there and the
sap is always in the tree.
1t has heretofore been the opinion
that the sources of turpentine on this
continent were all known, and that
many of them were pretty nearly ex-
hausted. If this North Carolina mans
find" is authentic, it is a matter of
interest to the industry.

Such a man would have little regard

SOrRe learned discussion of the burn
ing question, when Is Man Drunk 2"
has been taking place in the Yarmouth
Police Court in connection with
summons against man for being
drunk on licensed premises, says the
London Daily News. The solicitor for
the defense stated that he had looked
up in the dictionary the definitions of
drunk" which he found as follows
in the International Dictionary: I'm
der the influence of intoxicating liquor
to such an extent as to have lost the
normal control of ones bodily and
mental faculties. and commonly to
evince a disposition to violence, quar-
relsomeness and bestiality." The OK
ford English Dictionary more ac-
curately, as we think, gives it
as "One who has drunk in
toxicating liquor to an extent
which affects steady control. The de-
gree of inebriation is expressed by va
rious adjectives as beastly.' blind,
dead"
Upon this the magistrates clerk
stated that he also had a definition,
which ran:
Not drunk is he who from the floor
Can rise again and still drink more;
But drunk is he who PROSTATE lies
Without the power to drink or rise.
The defendant was given the benefit
of the doubt.
After all, the earliest comment upon
drunkenness which exists, unless we
are mistaken, in English literature
strictly so called. puts the matter as
intelligibly as need be. The Father
of English Poety" writing of a man
walking with uncertain and stumbling
steps, versified somewhat as follows
So fareth he that drunk is as a nous.
A drunke man wOt we'll he hath a
house,
But he moot whiche that the way is
thider,
And to a drunke man the way is slid
der.
We are obliged to quote from MEN,
Dry, but we are not very far wrong.
Readers without a knowledge of Chau-
Ger, and of the English tongue as it
was in the days of good King Edward
III, will find the meaning easy enough
to make out.

THE PISTOL LESS IN EVIDENCE.

There are reasons for thinking that
the pistol will be less in evidence in
the future in South Carolina among
people of the better class in settling
personal difficulties. Immediately after
the Tillman-Gonzales tragedy we ex
pressed the opinion that one effect OF
that tragedy would be to arouse a
strong public sentiment against the use
of the pistol or other deadly weapon
ir personal uuarrels. We pointed out
that the sentiment that the Cash
Shannon duel created against dueling
pretty effectually put a stop to that
way of settling personal difficulties
in that state. and we shall be very
much surprised if similar reform does
not follow the killing of MIR. Gonzales.
Indeed, it is already being freely pre-
dicted that the use of deadly weapons
in the settlement of quarrels is prac-
tically at an end there.
The Tillman case is the subject of a
great deal of discussion in all parts of
the state, and out of this discussion
there will come a healthier public SEN
timent in regard to the use of deadly
weapons in the settlement of personal
difficulties than has heretofore exist
ed. The law makers for d long time
have seen that if crimes of violence
were to be checked the practice of
carrying pistols would have to be
abandoned. and hence they have been
legislating against the practice. The
laws that have been made against the
carrying of deadly weapons, however
win not be so effective in putting an
end to the practice as the discussions
that are based upon the killing of Ed
itor Gonzales and the decision of JUS
tice Pope in refusing to admit Mr..
TilIman to bail.
1t is conceded that the course pur-
sued by Justice Pope was a surprise.
Unless we are wrongly informed the
very general opinion was that Mr..
Tillman's application for bail would be
granted. The refusal of it has had the
effect of intensifyng the discussion of
the pistol carrying habit and the evils
which result therefrom.
OF course the reform will not take
place all at once. but the discussion
of the Tiuman case is not ended yet.
IT will continue until that case is dis
posed of, and for a long time after
wards. The result will be that there
will be created a public sentiment
against the use of the pistol in per-
sonal difficulties-a sentiment that
win be more effective in suppressing
the pistol evil than the law has ever
been.
We have no doubt that Justice Pope
did his duty as he saw it, but it is not
at all improbable that he was con-
scious that the better sentiment of the
state was against granting Mr.. Till
mans application for bail-tlhat he felt
that there was already a strong feeling
against excusing any one for taking
human life under circumstances not
permitted by law, even though there
was great provocation.
