THE CURE FOR SNAKE BITES

People who are in the habit of get ting themselves bitten by snakes owe huge debt to one Dr. Loeb, who has affirmed the efficacy of whiskey in such cases. Of late there has been no ut- tie discussion on this momentous sub- Ject Some eminent professors and scientists have been industriouslv en- gagged in the effort to prove that whis- key has no virtue as a curer of snaka bites. Some of them have gone SO far as to affirm that it is actually hurt full as an alleged remedy.
 These are extreme temperance peo- pie, and we have no criticism for them, because they try to discredit the whis- key remedy. We go further and ad- init that they act commendably in so doing, for we've no doubt that some hardened characters visit the snakes too often, merely to give themselves an excuse for applying the remedy, but we let that pass, for we are only refer ring now to the debt of gratitude which certain fellow citizens owe to Dr. Loeb and to suggest that the least they can do is to send him a testimonial while he lives and erect a monument to him when he dies.
 What excuse would believers in the time-honored remedy have for takin; a bait bottle with them when they gu fishing if the contents will not cure snake-bites? Might as we'll take the worms in a matchbox and have done with. All old-style fishermen know that lack-bottle-quart size pre- ferred-is the thing to carry bait in and snakes are defied as long as any, thing remains in it. The new idea may suit new generation but for the old-timers, there is only one sure cure for snake bites.

ROOT MAY BE CANDIDATE.
Goes to His Farm to Ponder o
 Running for GOyernOr

Goes to His Farm to Ponder Over
 Running for Governor.
 New York World.
 As a result of President Roosevelts appeal Elihu Root Is back on the Re publican slate for Governor.
 MT. Root went to his farm at Clin ton. N. Y. last night to make up his mind, MT. Root came up from Oys- ter Bay at 1 o'clock yesterday after noon with the air of dragooned man. He had been with President Roosevelt at Oyster Bay for twenty hours, and the President had told him that 1t was for Governor. The President under stood that he would make the sacri- year in fees from corporations.
 Corporations Retained Him.
 MT. Root was retained, directly he left the cabinet, by some of the big gest corporaIIons in the city, and hls engagements in some eases covered norship was first preached to him MT. Root said he left the cabinet to make some money for his family. and he wanted to do it; Besides: e,d he es, ssid he well from his rich clients, whom he was practically in honor bound to serve.
 Up to the beginning of this week President Roosevelt had reconciled himself to taking less desirable can didate than MT. Root. but the rapid development of strength by Judge Parker, especially among the independ ent voters. alarmed him. and he sent hurry call for Mir. Root. When MT. Root got to Oyster Bay Monday after noon he was told by the President that this was the time for all good men to come to the aid of the party, and that he must do so.
 The President asked Mir Root to help him as a matter of friendship. MT. Root remained all night at Oyster Bay and until nearly noon yesterday. When he came back to the city he went to his office for only an hour. refusing to see any callers. He took train at once for Clinton, saying that he would live there until fall but would visit here for a day or so every two weeks. Why Trusts May Spare Him. + was sald last night that MT. Root may not find 1t as hard as was thought to get furlough from the corpora tions. Some of them are the big ones that owe the State large sums in fran chise taxes. which will have to be col lected in the next two years. President Roosevelt's main reason for wanting Mr. Root is that he will prove the independent voters. He is regard ed as a very strong Wall Street candi- date, and the trusts are esp' cially eag- CT to have him for the cardidate. with a coter!e of upstate leaders the latest developmnets in the Governor ship situation. The return of Root to the race upsets all of the Governors 5 plans. He does not want MT. Root, but If the President insists on him he cant help himself.
 Governor OdeIl wouldn't talk about the Governorship situation last night. William c. Warren, who is booming Erastus c. Knight of Buffalo, also de- clned to discuss the changed aspect of the situation.

REPUBLICANS ON THE MONEY
 ISSIrIr

| The Chicago Convention laid a tran for themselves when they declared the Democratic Party had done nothing for the gold standard and gave no promise of ever doing anything for it. ThA first statement was false, for Grover | Cleveland saved the situation by his | bond issues, situation directly brought about by ignorant and blun- dering legislation in behalf of silver | by the Republican Party. Neverthe- | less, Senator Lodge and his committee counted on the memory of the people being short as to Cleveland's achieve ment and that Bryanism for eight years in Democratic control would serve to obscure the facts of the rec. ord. They tauntily hazarded a predic- ton about the future. In this they were fairly caught and trapped by Judge Parker's telegram announcing his firm adhesion to the gold stand ard.
 Now they are wriggling and souirm- ing and denouncing the telegram as a petty trick to catch votes. To our mind. if every man in the convention had been awake at night for a week trying to devise a trick to be used in ditchinG Bryan. they could not have devised one so happy and conclusive in its effects, as the sending of that message to Sheehan at the moment 1t was sent. Truth is written all over the circumstances surrounding its dis patch.
 But suppose 1t was a preconcerted affair? Suppose it had been suggested to Judge Parker by some one at St. Louis that there remained but a single l chance to save the day for the Democ- | racy? Would there have been any, | thing disgraceful in this? Would he be any the less solemnly committed to | governing himself by the contents of the message? Would his Party be any the less strictly bound by his declara- tion of opinion. if, in the face of it. they gave him their support? Certain ly not A scheme or no scheme, plan ned or unplanned, those ringing words are there, and they will stay there | This is what worries the Republi- cans. They find the sound money Democrats returning in platoons to their old allegiance. They know there Is now not one single reason why these men should any longer consort vita the selfish organized wealthy criminal | class, commonly known as the Repub- | lican Party, to save the financial honor of the United States. These men have have gladly welcomed an opportunity to vote their convictions on other ques- tions, now that the money issue Is clean cut out of the campaign.

Seeing the Shadow.

HHilaQelphld Record.
 The contractors engaged in digging tunnel for an electrIc railway in the wyoming Valley have imported several hundred negro laborers from the South though it is denied that there is any scarcity of workers among the people Of the vicinity. If the sole motive De to secure cheaper labor the policy is or doubtful eXpediency. It is to be considered that these negroes are the most ignorant and least disciplined of their race; that they belong to the class from which much of the race trouble in the South springs. Not long ago city magistrate said this com munlty would have to enlarge its pris- ons II the negroes from the southern States should continue to come here. There is good reason to fear some of the consequences of importing such laborers in large numbers
 In Illinoi. q mining company import ed negroes from Alabama to take the place of strikers, slnd it led to a de- gree of violence which put the State to great expense Besides, 1t is said the presence of these miners caused a feeling of insecurity among the peo- pie of the district, and the Governor turn back later importation.
 There Is no legal obstacle to the bringing of laborers into this State from any other. but che doctrine that the interests of our own citizens should be considered when there are workers to be employed has been oommC nly recognized as sound. Not even a dis the importation of an inferior class of workmen. the presence of many of whom would be a menace to the public safety.
