The New Orleans Picayune re-
marks: "It is doubtful if Senator
Hanna can afford to stand as surety
for a man like President Roosevelt,
who is the most uncertain factor pos
sible, as te his position in any public
policy. Nobody can assert with any
degree of confidence what Mr.. Roose-
welt will do under any set of circum-
stances or at any time" But tine
Louisville Courier-Journal says: "Mr.
Roosevelt is a very consistent man, but
as he is consistent in doing invariably
what he thinks will strengthen his po-
litical fortunes, his record of consist
ency is made up of picturesque incon-
sistency."-Albany Argus.

When Lydia E. Pinkham's RENE.
dies were first introduced skeptics
all over the country frowned upon
their curative claims, but as year
after year has rolled by and the
little group of women who had been
cured by the new discovery has
since grown into a vast army OF
hundreds of thousands, doubts and
skepticisms have been swept away
as by a mighty food, until to-day
the great good that Lydia e.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
and her other medicines are doing
among the women of America is
attracting the attention Of many OF
our leading scientists, physicians
and thinking people.
Merit alone could win such fame;
wise, therefore, is the woman who
for a cure relies upon Lydia e.
Pinkham'sV Vegetable Compound.

proceedings in this scandal to be dis
missed? They say they arrived at this
decision, after full deliberation, in
vestigation and thought" What were
the momentous reasons, mot confined
to Porto Rico or the individuals in
volved," that caused the administra-
ton to punish Porto Ricans for snug
Cling by imprisonment, and to allow
United States officers and civil en-
ployes to go free for the same "tfense
against the laws? There is no doubt
that scandals of a similar nature have
p%ermeated the government of the Phil
fppines, for some have come to light,
but have been squelched by Secretary
Root. These scandals in the insular
department of the government, added
to the serious scandal in the post office,
land office and other departments, com
ing to light as they have on the eve
of the presidential campaign, may
wreck the political fortunes of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, which would certainly
be considerations of moment to
himself, and the shady politicians,
Root and Payne, who are his principal
political advisers. Acknowledgement
Knox and the other members of the
cabinet are equally interested in the
denomination of their chief, and are,
therefore, obliged to join in the con
| spiracy to prevent scandals from be-
ing exposed to the pnblic gaze. If this
is not the reason for suppressing the
scandals, will anyone suggest a ore
satisfactory explanation.
For an administration that prides it.
self with having the brand of civil serv-
ice reform burnt into its hide, the
present one certainly eclipses all its
predecessors. It could not be much
worse if Hanna and his crew were in
the saddle.
Reform is needed in every depart
ment of the government, and nothing
but a clean sweep will bring it about.
