Unless early and correct treatment is
applied the patient seldom survives
when once the disease is fastened upon
her. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is the most efficient treat
ment for kidney troubles of women,
and is the only medicine especially
prepared for this purpose.
When a woman is troubled with pain
or weight in loins, backache, frequent
painful or scalding urination, swelling
of limbs or feet, swelling under the
eyes, an uneasy, tired feeling in the
region of the kidneys or notices a brick
dust sediment in the urine, she should
lose no time in commencing treatment
with Lydia f. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, as it may be the means of
saving her life.
For proof read what Lydia Il. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound did for Mrs

The Power Of the Press.

What;a splendid sermon was that which
Cardinal Gibbons preached yesterday
through the columns of The Tlmes-Dls-5
patch! 1t was n sermon on corruption,
ana it Is significant that n Cardinal Of
the Roman Catholic Church should say
that the remedy, so far as remedy can
be- is publicity 1.-THE fear, the dread Of
exposure said the cardinal is the
counter-balancing element and that fears
and that dread, and that horror of hav-3
ing a name once respected dragged down
is duo to the efforts Of the metropolitan
press.
1T may not be good theology, It may
not be good ethics, but It is certainly
very good common sense, anu u very
good moral element that the fear tho
dread OF exposure In the public press
keeps many man sticking close to the
path Of rectitude who otherwise would
stray off into tho bywnys of personal
graft"
Readers Of this paper do not need to
be reminded that Tho Times Dispatch
has time without number proclaimed that
the great power OF the press to-day IS
insits news columns-that the great power
of,thc press is publicity. Bad mon fear.
exposure more than they fear the courts.
and the fact that the reporters are ever
on the alert and that tho evil doings OF
bad men in high places are almost sure
by and by to be exposed through the
,,,,,to nr,nt Is N restraining influence
that Is paramount.
The newspapers are frequently con
demned for publications which some
think should not be. and we do not by
any means justify every publication that
is made In the metropolitan press. but
the abuse, IL abuse II be- Is not half so
bad as would be a deliberate suppression
of news that ought to be printed, South
| crn newspapers arc conservative anu
| sometimes, for sufficient reasons 10 their
| managers, they do suppress news items
| that yellow journals would be swift to
| print under scare heads. But such eases
| are the rare exceptions, and only when
| Tho editors have thoroughly satisfied
| themselves that suppression ls better for
| the public interest than publication. But
when the public interest demands puhli-
cation all reputable newspapers DO thclr
| duty without fear or favoritisn, and IN so
| doing they are doing the one thing that
| they are most competent to do, to clear
the moral atmosphere and deter others
from the commission OF Ike oltences'
our civilization would soon be ~ a bad
way, surely. II newspapers made u a
business 10 suppress and cover up IN
stead OF exposing all sorts OF criminal
conduct. Cardinal Gibbons has struck
the keynote.

Broad street for himself and Culbcrson
in order that they might acquire n legal
residence in the ward, On MnSS Goth the
Judge and registrar ut tho precinct re-
signed, and Wise was appointed by the
electoral board 10 fill the vacancy. In tho
meantime according to. this statement,
rulbcrson had confessed to a. man named
Norvell that he had not acquired a lawful
residence In Richmond. but that Bob
Leo Syrclc had paid his poll taxes and
registered him. and that he was going TO

election Wise and Culberson went to

work of the day began, with what result

tfy
That is the story as related by Mr.,
Royal and the grand Jury, and the sls-
plclon amounts with many to conviction
that there was crooked work at other
precincts. Some members Of the grand |
Jury believe II and SO do the public.
II looks like a general plot to
defeat the will of the voters.
There was certainly the most outrageous
'rauds at one precinct; Of that there Is
proof, and it appears that
nen were put there for the purpose.
But fraud at one precinct alone would
lave been useless, and the conclusion
S Irresistible that the plot was wide
spread, ,},
A thorough investigation Is demanded.
