Kidney uOuDle.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
It used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
ming in kidney trouble.
II you are sick you can make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild

Newport. r, l., April 15.-The we'd

York. the youngest son of the late Cor
nelius Vanderbilt. and Miss Cathleen
G. Nelson, also of New York, was a
brilliant as well as an early spring
beginning of the social season of 1903
at Newport. AS the marriage took
place in a private villa, it lacked much
of the splendor which usually attends
a church function. About $50 guests.

the bridegroom, his best man and the

white boutonnieres, and the bride, Of
course, was attired in the purest
white.
The ceremony was brie(. It's COM
pletion was indicated by the Mendels-

and an inspection was made of the
bridal gifts, which were declared to
be probably as costly an array as was
ever bestowed on two young people at
the advent of their married life. Then
came the wedding breakfast.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Representative Babcock, of Wiscon-
sin, chairmanlof the Republican Con
gressiOnal Committee, has taken issue
with the tariff policy Of the President
and the members of the Cabinet and
declaresfn unequivocal terms that the
Republican party is pledged to tariff
revision by the Fifty-eighth Congress.
Mr.. BabcOck, speaking to your cor
respondent, said that he regarded as
wholly as unwarranted the apprehen-
sion of hard times as result of a re
vision Of the tariff by the Republican
party. Democratic revision would, of
course, ruin the financial prosperity of
the country because it was clearly
understood that such revision was
undertaken with a free trade object in
view. Republicans revision, on the
contrary, would be undertaken with
the policy of protection always in sight
and would not therefore disturb the
prosperous condition the country is
I
the asst cam paign the Republican party
lost many Republican cities because
the cost of living had increased out of
all proportion to The income of salaried
employees. This was not the case in
the country districts because of plenti-
ful crops, but with a failure of crops
the condition would become universal
and nothing but disaster to the Re
publican party could result. Mr.. Bah
cock maintains that the 80 per cent of
the American people are proiectionists
and want protective tariff but that
means a duty Of sufficient amount
merely, to compensate the employer
for the increased price he has to pay
for labor. All over that is extortion
and tends to create monopoly. He
cites the case of the Steel Trust which
he maintains, under the existing
schedules. is enabled to take from the
pockets of the people SSO,O0O0 600 an
nually to which it is not entitled.
Charles A. COnant, Secretary of the
Morton Trust Company and Professor
John w. jerks have been selected as
two members of the commission of
three which is to confer with the rep
resentatives of Mexico and presumably
and Japan with a view to devising a
system whereby silver using countries
of the world may employ silver on a
gold basis and eliminate the serious
fiuctuation which has menaced the
Milford chronicle., 1903-04-17

financial system of every silver using
country during the past few years. Mr..
Conant stopped in Washington on his
return from Mexico and consulted with
Secretaries Root and Shaw. He says
that, in so far as outlined, the proposed
plan conforms closely to that adopted
by the United States in the Philippines
The War Department is making rap d
progress in preparation of the new
Philippine silver currency, three mil
lion pesos of which were authorized by
Congress, and it is expected the coins
will be ready for shipment at an early
date. In the meantime, the question
ofassessing an almost prohibilO'y tariff
on Mexican and other silver coming
into the Philippines is being seriously
considered.
