The editor of The Amboy Herald has a
very short memory. In a recent issue
he spoke of Senator Miller as stran-

his note book sixteen years he will find
that Mr.. Miller was sufficiently well
known in republican circles even at that
time to have defeated Mr.. Brown as a
delegate to the republican national con-
vention at Chicago. Perhaps this ac-
counts for Mr.. Browns bitter attacks
on Mr.. Miller, but we don't think So

 "The struggle now going on between la bor and capital is a ser.ous onc,' said ne, but I have no doubt but that time and the forces at issue will bring it to suc- cessful conclusion. Neither the labor unions nor the employers seem to regard the greatest factor in it. They forget t lat the majority of our people arc neither la boreIs nor capitalists. The capital cl ss is small, and t is estimated that there are four million people. dependent on the wages of organized labor. We have a population of eighty millions, so that there are seventy-six millions oltside That seventy,six millions may allow or ganized labor to ineona aenience them for a time,. but they will never permit 1t to rule.

He is tall and thin, with face bearing the evidence of hard study. He is very dignifled but at the same time kindly, speaking freely and in- terestingly on every subject found that he had recently delivered a sermon on la bor and his first words were on ''The Sweat Shops of Baltimore" Said he: "The sweating system is a disgrace to the country. We have a large class of persons here in the Baltimore employ by the proprietors of the clothing estab- lishments. Some of them work in the stores and others in their own homes, bringing their garments to the establish ment. These people are overworked and underpaid. I find that they put in six days, of ten or twelve hours each. for i from $6 to $S per week. With this pitt tance they have to pay for house rent, food, clothing and all the expenses inci- dent to family life. They have hardly enough to keep them from starving, and
 the result is that after a few years they are incapacitated for work. find that

 How can the matter be remedled, your eminence?" I asked.
 "One way is to arouse public attention | to the grievance and discriminate in favor

Acts Like Oxygen

Liquozone is the result of a process which. for more than 20 years. has been the constant subject of scientific and chemical research. The process consists in generating gases. made in large part from the best oxygen producers. These gases are confined under pressure and. by the employment of immense apparatus and II days time,@ are made part of ths liquid product.
 The result is a product which does what oxygen does Oxygen. as you know. is the vital part of air. It is the very source of vitality, the most essential ele- ment of life. It is oxygen that turns the blue blood to red in the lungs. It is oxy- gen that eliminates the waste tissues and builds up the new. And no germ of dis ease can live in the presence of an ex- cess of oxygen.
 But oxygen Is gas. and unstable. Liquozone is a liquid which Is not even volatile It carries it's virtues into the stomach, into the bowels and into the blood, to go wherever the blood goes It forms a vitalizing tonic with which no other known product can compare. It IS life 10 the human body. But germs are vegetables and Liquozone--lfkc an excess of oxygen--is deadly to vegetable mat ter. For this reason, Liquozone destroys every germ in the body. And no map knows another way to do it without kill Ing the tissues, too,

of the profits?'
 Tt is getting more every year and cap ital less" was the reply. This is espe- cially so as to the real profits; that is, the commodities that cen be brought with the money received from capital and labor I don't think that it is generally considered that the great bulk of the capital of the country consists of an az gregation of small sums owned by peo- pie who are dependent upon them for their living. Take the widow whose all is the sum of $5,OOO, which she has to safe ly invest.
 'In 1860 that widow could put this sun into a safe bond which would bring her per cent. or $350 per year. At the same time suppose man received a dollar day for his work and that he worked So days in the year. His income would bt $500 year. or $5) less than the earning of the widows 5000.

 We publish this fact because it best shows the value of Liquozone. Claims are easily made; but men don't pay . price like that save for product ol vital worth to humanity. Men of our class do not stake their fortunes and reputations on product without know ing that 1t does what we claim.
 We paid that $1OO aoo because Liquozone does in germ trouble what no skill. can accomplish without 1t. It will do more for the sick than ,.all the drugs Tn the world combined. You must realize that we know this when, after paying that price, we offer you bottle free.

 New York. I give you today the views of two of the ablest divines of the country on the struggle which is now going on between labor and capital. The men are especial iy noted as thinkers and they are the friends of the public. One is Bishop Henry c. Potter. the head of the Pro est ant Episcopal Church of New York. and the other James Cardinal Glib oas. the chief of Roman Catholicism on the North American Continent.
 A Talk With Bishop Pott r.
 1t was in his apartments on West 10th Street that I met Bishop Potter. Going mp the elevator, I was taken into a little reception room walled with bo ks and furnished in blue as delicate as that of the blue room of the White House. sawed-on boy in buttons took my card to the bishop, and a moment later q tall. straight. broad-shouldered man in cleri- cal dress stood before me.

60 per cent, so that the dollar day man of 1860 would now get at least $61O. or $1S0 more than he got in 1860. At the same time the widows earnings have been re- duced to per cent. instead of '. and her income from the 5000 is only S200 instead of S350. She has lost $5l and the work man has gained $lS0. That Is an example of how labor Is annually getting a great CT share of the profits."
 But what will be the end of it all?'' I asked.
 Tt will come out all right" said the bishop. "The situation of to-day is mere ly an incident in our history. We are now in transition stae. but in the end mat ters like these regulate themselves. have no fears for the future'

a good thing and ought to be patronised'
 Organized Labor.

"TIow about the labor organizations, your eminence. Do you approve of them:"
 ''Yes," replied the cardinal. T see no reason why our working men should not combine together for their own protection and benefit. This is an age of organiza- ton, We have syndicates, trusts and all sorts of combination of capital, why should we not have organizations of labor?' The labor union is an emblem of freedom. It is the legitimate child of tine trade guilds of old England: It has nothing to conceal, and 1t takes from man the pretext for the formation of danger ous secret societies"
 Strikes and Boycotts.
 That is so," said l, ''but it also origi- mates trouble. It causes strikes and boy cotts."
 That is true" replied the cardinal, ''but I think the day will come when such things will pass away, and when arbitration and conciliation will take the place of strikes. The disputes between capital and labor can be and should be amicably settled.
 As to strikes, think they are at best a questionable remedy for labor troubles. They paralyze industry. foment passion and Bad to the destruction of property. They keep the men in enforced tdleness, during which their minds are clouded with discontent, and they often cause great suffering to the workman's family. don't approve of the boycott. l regard it as an understandable invasion or the commercial privileges guaranteed by the government to every. business nrm' A man has the right to select the place /r.xA;ous5 o,, paSe SavAn.l

The men who furnish 1t might toll thousand years if they could live so long and have a product no great CT than at the end of the first day or the first week. They have their everl sting daily wants to devour their daily produc- tion, and it is only when foresight, extra ordinary ability and the genius of inven- tion come in that their work can be so directed and used as to create wealth. Labor as an E ephant.
 "The relations of labor and capital" continued Bishop Potter. "are in some re-
 spects like those of the elephants and
 their masters in the lumber yards of the
 far east. As you enter the shipyard at
 Rangoon, Burma, you may see those huge
 unwieldy animals loading, unloading and
 stacking timbers. They seize great logs of oak, mahogany or teak wood with their tusks and trunks; they balance them carefully and carry them through wind

Medicine Can't Cure.

Your physician will tell you that medi- cine Is almost helpless in any germ dis ease. The utmost it can do is to act as tonic, aiding nature to overcome the germs. Such results are indirect and un- certain, depending on the patients con dition. A cure is always doubtful and of- ten impossible. And the cures that do result are duo to Nature, not to medicine. A cure can't come until those germs are killed. and medicine never kills inside germs.
 These diseases were long attributed to other causes than germs. and medicine was used to doctor them. Up to the year 1880 germs were almost unknown; but
