Only Makes a Bad Matter Worse.

Perhaps you have never
thought of it but the fact must
be apparent to every one that
constipation is caused by lack of
water in the system, and the use
of drastic cathartics like the old
fashioned pills only makes
bad matter worse. Chamber
lain's Stomach and Liver Tablets
are much more mild and gentle
in their effect, and when the
proper dose is taken their action
is so natural that one can hardly
realize it is the effect of a medi'
cine. Try a Is cent bottle OF
them. For sale by J. H. Good.

No Estimate in Such Case.
lRy the Associated PICS. }

Washington. Dec. 29.-Director
North of the Census Bureau admitted
to-day having received d telegram
from the Memphis Cotton Exchange
stating that many ginnerS in that dis
trict denied having made reports as to
the amount of cotton ginned from No.
vember IA to December 13. He ic~
piled as follows
"Where information was refused in
Shelby county, the November returns
were brought forward for December
without estimates. Comparatively few
instances throughout belt where cor
rect information was not available. :
In discussing the matter Director
North said that for some unexplained
reason a number ff ginners refused to
furnish Information regarding the
amount of cotton ginned during the
period stated and that following the
custom of the bureau under such cir
cumstanceS the returns for the pre-
| ceding period were brought forward
without estimates. The final report on
| the amount of cotton ginned to De-
cember ] 3 viii be issued by the Census
| Bureau Tomorrow. and this report
lwiH include seventy-five counties not
| heard from or included in the re-
| port issued yesterday. Director

u To repeal the Watts Act.

A'itOhS
CD To repeal the Watts Act.
CD TO make the county-not the
municipaliy-the voting unit in local
option.
ts) To make the township-not
the municipality-th voting unit in
local option.
Plainly the design OF these bills
is to overcome the Watts Act. Let the
friends of temperance. therefore be
vigilant to< discover and swift to re-
buke movements in behalf of these
bills.
(4) A bill will be introduced to re-
peal the present anti-jug law; and a
determined effort will be made TO
carry it. The present law was en-
acted by accident. But If it shall
survive Il square fight, it may no
longer be regarded as an accidental
law. The law is a great protection to
prohibition territories and localities
and representatives of prohibition
counties cities and towns should be
urged to vote for it: for these points
are entitled to the protection of The
Commonwealth
(5) A bill will be introducedto linz
Nit the number of dispensaries in a
county TO one. To honeycomb the
Commonwealth with dispensaries is
poor scheme of temperance. Any
little crossroads that stands in need
of revenue may set up dlSepnsary,
and in the end we should be in no
better condition than in the day of
the bar room.
One dispensary TO county-and
that only where conditions make it
. desirable substitutes enough.
co a bill will be introduced to ap-
ply the prohibitory feature of the
= Watts Act to towns of five hundred
population or less. This is in keep
ing with the principle of the Watts
Act as declared by the Democratic
platform--namely, that bar rooms
and distilleries should not be suffered
to carry onitheir traffic in Insufficient
ly policed districts A town of five
hundred population is but little bet
ter policed than a rural district.
Moreover, this bill will wipe out
whiskey distilleries and bar rooms,
such as Williams, Shore and certain
points in Edgecombe and other coun-
ties. 1t will put an end, too, to this
sort Of evasion of the Watts Act
Evidently there is plenty of work
ahead for the friends of temperance,
both defensive and offensive. Let US
go into this effort with the splendid
zeal which has characterized our ef-
forts and crowned them so often with
success.
Remember the convention, anuary

Mr.. Rurleson's Statement.

Upon receipt of the letter Mr.. Burle-
son gave out the following statement:
Believing that it was TO the inter-
est of the producers of cotton TO elimi-
nate as far as possible the speculative
element from entering into or effecting
the market price of his product 1
caused to be embodied in the act MAX
ing the Census Bureau permanent the
original item providing for statistics
of cotton ginned during the current
year and the result of the Census Bn-
reau's laborS in carrying into eHect
this provision has materially aided IN
accomplishing this end. This result
has not influenced change of opinion
on my part.
"If | may be pardoned personal
aNusion, grower of cotton myself.
having frequently experienced thG
damage occasioned by the high esti-
mates and cocksure assertions put for
ward by those acting for spectators
and cotton gamblers ! felt the neces-
sity of some impartial source Of IN
formation which would be as accurate
as possible. This the Census Bureau
has proven itself to be.
Il concur in every word contained
in this letter of Mr.. North and feet
that it would be nothing short of a
calamity if the ginnerS should at any
time fail To furnish prompt and ac-
curata reports to the Census Bureau.
To fail to report to the Census Bureau

Bureau of Statistics of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, and the Census
Bureau. thoroughly discredited. II
| during next year. as a result OF de-
creased acreage and imperfect wealth
| er conditions. there should be a short
crop which is not improbable. then
/ the ginners' reports issued by the
Census Bureau would again be in hltpl
FLAVOR by the cotton growers. What
/ is wanted and what il really always
| to the interest OF the cotton grower
is prompt KNOWLEDGE OF the exac
truth.
| 1T is my purpose TO prepare and
offer at this session of Congress, ar
amendment to the Census act proVid-
ing for the collection and publication
of accurate statistics of the number 81
! bales of cotton consumed each year
| and the surplus of cotton held i'll the
| hands of the manufactures and the
/ number of bales exported. This is
necessary an donly fair to the growers
( OF cotton. He should promptly have
| this information as the manufacturers
of cotton throughout the world are
given knowledge of the number OF
bales of cotton grown.
! IhaVe discussed this with Send
| tor Bailey of my State and he agreed
with me as TO the Importance and
necessity of this amendment and
agrees to lend Il helping hand in Sc
curing its adoption
