ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup Of Figs
and Elixir Of SIENNA is the only remedy of
known value, but one Of many reasons
why it is the best of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it cleanses,
sweetens and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any facilitating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time to time.
1t acts pleasantly and naturally and
truly as a laxative, and its component

RIGHTS OF THE RABBIT.
Assaied Because of Destruction of
 Crops Worth $1o,oo0,ooo.

Washington Dispatch to the Brooklyn
 Eagle.
 Has the rabbit no rights? One would be led to think so by the onslaught made upon him by great branch of the Amer ican government, the department of Az riculture. In a publication just issued from that source he is maligned and ex- ecrated in a manner that would certain ly be resented at the polls next Novem- Der, if the rabbit enjoyed the rights of suffrage. He is charged, for instance, with the larger part of the destruction of the $10000,OO0 worth of crops that are laid low by the rodents of the country each year. True pocket gophers, wood chucks, prairie dogs, ground squirrels, rats and mice are held responsible to some degree, but 1t is the rabbit that is held most conspicuously up to public rep rotation.
 But even a more serious stain is cast upon the reputation of this heretofore highly respected member of the animal community. Now and then certain pub lications have feigned to believe that the rabbit was a quarrelsome body, given to disorderly conduct and brawlngs. These outpourings have generally been regard ed as the emanations of conscienceless nature fakers, but now the powerful mt chinery of the United States government is invoked to perpetuate the libel Behind the apparently innocent statement that he -or she--will fight if attacked, is none the less skillfnlly contrived suggestion, in the following paragraph, that the rabbit, in stead of being endowed with those gen. tlemanly and ladylike instincts usually ascribed to the species, is in reality star member of the rugh element in our civil ization:
 "The female, while caring for her young remains in the vicinity of the nest. If enemies approach she runs away for short distance; but when the young are attacked and cry out, she has been known to fight desperately in their defense, and even to vanquish such formidable foe as a cat or a snake When attacking she jumps and strikes the enemy with her hind feet-members capable of power full blow, as many boys who have cap tured a live rabbit can testify
 The way in which the writer who composed the publication scores the rab- bit for indulging the natural instinct for filling his stomach with the choice things of the land raises the suspicion that, forced by circumstances to content him. self with the cracked mugs and prehis- toric eggs of Washington's quick lunch rooms. the writer was bitterly envious Of the others succulent existence.

whose shoulders he had branded the in- itials of his name
 MT. Samuel Gompers is moved to stig- matize as an infamous lie" the report that he ever boasted that he would, or could,. deliver the labor vote to any po- litical party. Such heat was inexcusa- ble, considering that no intelligent per- son could believe that MT. Gompers would say outright any such thing, par ticularly If he really intended to bargain away the labor vote. Even secret prom ises of this kind are rarely formulated in words between the bargainers.
 MT. Taft's private secretary yesterday published 'upon the authority of MT. Taft himself' denial of the story cir culating in the neighborhood of Cincin- nati that MT. Taft had, in some speech or at some time, declared that "a dollar day or dollar and a quarter day, was enough for any workman"
 That one, now, has a flavor every old voter will recognize. We know not from whom the fathers. of the men who circu- lated the mendacity got it, but they ac- cused Henry Ward Beecher of the very same thing back in the seventies, since which time it has been held up to the blinking eyes of the laboring man upon every opportunue occasion. We think MT. Blaine, MT. Harrison and MT. Cleveland successively denied the story as relating to themselves. Indeed, the denials are the only thing that gives the roorback dignity.
 We suppose before the campaign has passed the hot weather stage, MT. Taft will be called on to deny the charge first lodged against Chester A. Arthur, that he was born in Canada, and is therefore ineligible, or MT. Bryan will be called upon to disclaim the document bearing his signature. like the forged letter of James A. Garfield which Abram s. Hew- it declared to be genuine.
