. No census taken.

n census taken.
Had these census reports included the
period from 1894 to 1904 the COMPARE
son would be far more striking, for
thousands of workingmen lost their jobs
shortly after the last Democratic admin
istration QS93-1S9O went into power,
and there were very few ~workingmen Of
those able to keep their jobs who did not
have to submit to at least some reduction
in wages.
Those were the days when Democracy
piled trouble on to trouble, and seemed
to leave nothing undone that could be
done to bring impoverishment to the
American workingman. .
The entire country was made a sort OF
laboratory for original Democratic ex-
perimentation in various explosive pro-
| ducts and by-products, including especial
~ free trade, free silver, free riot and
free soup. 1t mattered not that desola-
ton was brought into thousands Of
| American homes. that the ~workingman
| and his wife and little ones were pinched
| for the necessities of life, 80 long as
| Democracy was given the chance to ex-
| pertinent with the idea of taking the
| home market away from American indus
try and giving it to the foreigner, and
antagonizing business interests by agita-
| ton against the gold standard.
After William Mckinley was elected
President and the policies Of protection
and Of sound money once again estab-
lished. the phenomenal growth of the
United States in wealth and prosperity
| attracted the wonder OF all civilized n
tons; and this growth has continued
with accelerating velocity up to the pres
ent time.
The census OF 1900 recorded this great
upward movement when it was only
| about half way to where it is now. OF
course, an increase of nearly half a bill
ion dollars On workingmen's wages does
not concern the workingman alone by
any means. 1t concerns every business
man in the United States. every farmer,
and every woman and child dependent
on the labor of others for their support.
For instance, il the wages Of labor IN
manufacturing industries had not in.
creased in the millions the per capita
consumption OF wheat could not have in.
creased from 3.44 bushels in 1894 to 6.33
bushels in 1904, and the price of wheat
almost doubled. Prosperity is always
made up of an almost endless chain OF
circumstances, ard it is only by having
every link sound and strong that pros

Climate Cures.

The influence of climate conditions in
the cure of consumption is very much
ovcrdrawn. The poor patient, and the
rich patient, too, can do much better at
home by proper attention to food diges-
ton, and a regular use of German Syrup.
Free expectorarion in the morning is
made certain by German Syrup, so is a
good nights rest and the absence Of that
weakening cough and debiitating night
sweat Restless nights and the exhaus
ton due to coughing, the greatest dan
ger and dread Of the consumptive, can be
prevented of stopped by taking German
Syrup literally and regularly. Should
you be able to 80 to warmer cline, you
will find that of the thousands of con-
sumptives there, the few who are benc-
fited and regain strength are those who
use German Syrup. Trial bottles, 25c;

Congratulations.

Mr.. John II. CulIom, Editor of the
Gerland, Texas, News has written a letter
of congratulations to the manufacturers
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy as fol
lows: Sixteen years ago when our first
child was baby he was subject to croupy
spells and we would be very uneasy
about him. We began using Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy in 1887, and find
ing such reliable remedy for colds
and Group, we have never been without it
in the house since that time. We have
five children and have given it to all of
them with good results. One good fea-
ture of this remedy is that it is not disa-
grecable to take and our babies really like
it. Another is that it is not dangerous
and there is no risk from giving an over
dose. | congratulate you upon the sue
cess of your remedy" For sale by Jno

Queer Method of Collecting Cam
p0ign Fund IN South.

Five hundred and twenty per cent Miller Syn
dicate methods have been resorted to by the
Democratic National Committee TO raise cam
paign funds. 1t was learned last night that the
national executive committee authorized the
editors of Southern weekly newspapers 10 col
lect subscriptions for the Parker campaign.
without requiring any particular accounting for
the money when paid in by the contributors In
the wayback villages of the Southern States.
The plan seems TO be for the Southern editors.
particularly in the rural districts. to call on
patriotic Southerners to send subscriptions to
the office of the paper, which, the announcement
will say, has been authorized 70 collect funds
The publishers are authorized TO deduct enough
to cover the expenses of collecting the money,
and forward the balance to the national COM
mittee.
This loose way of getting in campaign sub
scriptions is condemned by the more conserVa-
tive men at headquarters They hold that so
much will be "raked off" for collecting the
money that when the facts become known 1t
will hurt the national committee, and perhaps
cost the ticket many votes. This view of the
plan, apparently has made impression on
the managers. who for the present will not
allow the method to be used in any but the
Southern States where loss of votes would
not make any difference to the national ticket

New-Haven's Difficulties.

mon Council proposed ordinance was submitted
by the Corporation Counsel prohibiting the use of
soft coal Concerning this. President MeIlen Of
the New-York New-Hayen and Hartford Railroad
said TO a resident Of New Rochelle.
1t is right and proper for New Rochelle to pro-
tect itself, but would like to have the efforts of
our operating department watched TO see IL there
is really any necessity for action. The orders were
issued at the time the Mount Vernon resolutions
were brought to our attention, and just
rigid ana applied just much to New Rochelle as
to Mount Vernon, and the same discipline has
been applied TO frenen guilty of infractons of our
rules in New Rochelle as in Mount Vernon.
The situation at New-RocheIe Is and must al
ways be worse than at Mount Vernon, inasmuch
as our freight business passes there, and all
freight trains must under control before TAX
ing the crossovers, and as a result make more
smoke than would otherwise be the case. but
this can and will be reduced a minimum. and
should be so much reduced that there should be
reasonable cause for complaint.
