Is Pe-ru-na Useful
for Catarrh?

Shoulda list of the ingredients ofPe.
runa be submitted to any medical ex-
pert, ofwhatever school or nationality,
he would be obliged to admit without
reserve that each one of them was of
undoubted value in chronic catarrhal
diseases and had stood the test of many
years experience in the treatment of
such diseases. THERE CAN BE NO
DISPUTE ABOUT THIS WHAT
EVER. Perrna is composed ofthe most
efGcacious and universally used herbal
remedies for catarrh. Every ingred-
lent of Peruna has reputation of its
owninthe cureofsome phase of catarrh.
Peruna brings to the home the COM
BINED KN0WLEDGE0F SEVERAL
SCHOOLS OF MEDICINE in the treat
msnt Of catarrhal diseases: brings to
the home the scientific skill and knowl-
eCge of the modern pharmacist; and
last but not least, brings to the home the
vast and varied experience of DR.. Hart
man, IN the use ofcatarrh remedies, and
in the treatment of catarrhal diseases.
The fact is, chronic catarrh is dis
ease which is very prevalent. Many
thousand people know they have
chronic catarrh. They have visited
doctors over and over again, and been
told that their case is one of chronic
catarrh. 1t may be of the nose, throat,
lungs, stomach or some other internal
organ. There is no doubt as to the ma
ture of the disease. The only trouble
is the remedy. This doctor has tried
to cure them. That doctor has tried
to prescribe for them.
BUT THEY ALL FAILED TO
BRING ANY RELIEF.
Dr. Hartman's idea is that catarrh
remedy can be made on large scale,
as he is making it; that it can be made
honestly, of the purest drugs and of
the strictest uniformity. His idea is
that this remedy can be supplied di-
rectly to the people, and no more be
charged for it than is necessary for
the handling of it.
No other household remedy so uni
versally advertised carries upon the
label the principal active constituents,
showing that Peruna invites the full
inspection Of the critics.

ed Longer In Congress Than
Any Other Man.

United States Senator William b.
Allison died at his home in Dubuque,
Iowa at 1888 O'Clock Tuesday afternoo
The immediate cause of his death
was heart failure. The end came as
a result of a serious sinking spell due
10 a pros attic enlargement compHcar-
ed with kidney disease, and during a
period of Inconsistencies which had
las,ed since Saturday afternoon.
Two weeks ago the Senator left his
home in the city TO escape the heat.
lie went 10 the home of Mrs. Fannie
Stout, a friend of the family living on
the Asbury road, a few miles from
town. For a few days his condition
seemed to improve. but ne later began
10 grow worse. Medical advisors urged
that an operation be performed to re-
lieve the prostate enlargement, which
was bringing his conditions to crisis.
Saturday morning the Senator was
brought back home. Soon afterward
he relapsed into condition of semi
consciousness. Except for brief periods
of partial recovery ne remained in this
condition until death came.
News of The serious illness of the
aged Senator was kept form the public
as much as possible and his death
came as surprise 10 his thousands of
friends residing in this city. Only
the more intimate friends of the ia
mily were aware of his critical con-
dition.
Senator Allison was born AT Perry

and Mary Allison. His boyhood days
he spent on the farm, which was his
birthplace. Reaching young manhood,
he secured his education in Allegheny
College in Pennsylvania and the Wes-
tern Reserve College of Ohio in both
of which schools he distinguished him
self at winning high honors in all the
branches which ne studied.

bar in 1850. He was married TO Miss
Anna Carter, of Wooster, Ohio. at Ash
land, Ohio in February 1854. From
1S50until 1857 he practiced law in Ohio
In 1857 he removed to Dubuque where
he took up the practice Oft he law.

ENgLANp's JEALoUsF AROUsEp.

The British admiralty has been In
able to conceal its chagrin over the
efforts being made in Australia to well
come the American battleships on
their tour of the globe. The Austria
liam government has voted $500, 900
for entertaining the American officers
and men and business concerns and
private individuals have undertaken to
raise an equal amount, so that when
the ships arrive at Australia they will
meet a $1,000, 900 welcome. The
British authorities recently have
openly criticised this lavish expendi-
ture and intimated that the Australia
slams were making too much fuss over
a visit by sixteen battleships.
This disturbance of British equan-
unity is not ~bothering the Australia
slams to any noticeable degree. They
have their own discomfort, because
England has withdrawn all its ships
from the Pacific and left Australia de-
fenseless. The government is not in
position to build a navy of its own
and the people accordingly protest
against paying taxes to maintain a
fleet on the other side of the world
Canadians have a similar grievance
and as a consequence England must
either furnish a fleet for Australia
Canada and other far-away colonies, In
addition to keeping a powerful navy
in home waters, or else withdraw the
fleets from the colonies and look to iti
| allies for protection. The British ma.
val budget is already $175,O0O, 00(
annually and the patient taxpayer II
not in a mood TO submit to the heavier
burden that would be necessary t.
provide additional fleets for the colo
MES.
Back of the expressed dissatisfaction
over A~ustralia's lavish welcome to tn,
American feet is a commercial ques
ton about which England is yer!
much concerned. Australia and al
British colonies are each year show
ing a disposition TO make new trad,
alliances regardless OF british preferen
tials. The visit of our feet will b
followed, the British fear, by increase,

THE MiNo R1TY LEADERSHIP.

John Sharp Williams, the leader of
the democratic minority in congress,
has announced that he will withdraw
from that position, leaving the demo-
Gratis to select his successor at the
opening of congress next December.
Mr.. williams term in the house does
not expire until next March, but he has
had enough of the worry and thankless
hard work that goes with the job of
trying to organize and direct the eff
forts of the democrats in congress.
When the conditions under which he
has labored are considered, Mr.. Will
liams has met with much success.
Democratic factions in the house are
almost as numerous as the party men,
bership in hat body. He has had to
deal with Bryan democrats, Cleveland
democrats, Hearst democrats, Roose-
welt democrats and independent demo-
Gratis, forming an unruly army, in
which every private believed himself
a general. Splendidly educated, a
shrewd debater and always ready to
lead the fight against overwhelming
odds, Mr.. Williams might have made
the minority in the house something
of a factor If he had the support of
his democratic colleagues, who, for the
most part, refused to be led or guided.
Apparently by common consent the
leadership of the minority at the next
session of congress will fall to Champ
Clark Of Missouri. Clark is a Bryan
man, which Mr.. Williams is not. He
is not the equal of Mr.. Williams in
planning fights, but has few superiors
in verbal encounters. His uncontested
succession simply illustrates the small
ness of the supply of democrats in ma
jority who are equipped for leadership.

COSTLY,

Bills already rendered indicate that
our recent grand jury will cost the
taxpayers of Douglas county about
$500. The net result of this outlay
is the privilege of reading a majority
and a minority report discoursing for
the most part on the duty Of the po-
lice board in the treatment Of the So
cial evil and the finding of a lew
indictments for very commonplace Of
lenses.
So far as giving something for the
money is concerned, the last grand
jury stands on a par with the grand
jury that preceded 1t by only six
weeks. In fact, nothing substantial
was to have beer expected, inasmuch
as no serious suspicious Of deep
rooted corruption or unfathomable
crime prevailed anywhere. Not n of
the indictments brought by the grand
jury are of such a nature that the
supposed culprit could not have been
proceeded against equally well by in
formation filed by the county attor-
ney without the expenditure of a sim
gle additional dollar.
When the last grand jury was
called, before the ink on the report of
another grand jury was dry, The Bee
demonstrated against 1t as unneces-
sary and said that while a grand jury
was unquestionably a good thing once
in a while to clarity the atmosphere
and keep public officials straight, yet
a continuous succession of grand juries
would prove to be too much of a good
thing. The repeated summoning Of
grand juries is a reflection on the
county attorneys office and II the
county attorney is not attending to
his business it is our place to turn
him out and get one who will fill the
bill rather than to indulge in the
luxury of $500 grand iuries three or
four times a year.

THIRD pIs7B,cT AMENITIES

Our old democratic friend, Edgar
Howard, who thinks he is slated for
nomination for congress in the Third
district, seems to have been trying to
establish a new rule of political ETH
quet. On the occasion of a recent
visit from State Senator Latta, who
likewise wants the congressional
place on the democratic ticket, Judge
Howard introduced him around to his
own friends in his home county.
Such an exhibition OF blind conf
dence on the part of Editor Howard
surely entities him to a Carnegie hero
medal. Banker Latta is known as a
fellow who has the dough" and who
is mot a tight wad, either" while
Judge Howard has no other way of en-
forcing his claim to recognition than
by publishing to the world at large the
great sacrifices he has made and the
numerous defeats he has gracefully
accepted in the cause OF Bryan and
democracy.
Virtue is said to have its own re-
ward, but how can the poor editor ex-
pect to prevail against the wealthy
banker when he himself leads the
hungry democrats up to the cashiers
window?
