Seattle, Aug, 2T.--Last nights con-
cert of the tabernacle choir in the big
auditorium on the fair grounds was a
fitting climax to a series OF successful
appearances In the northwest. As the
magnificent choir sang the Star
Spangled Banner at the close. the vast
audience rose, waived hand kerchlefs at
the singers and cheered. AS soon as
the doors opened, standing room was
at Z aEpreimium. The biggest audience
the choir ever appeared before away
from home greeted them. Horace s.
Ensign was again a favorite with three

Edward were presented by local Welsh
singers. Alfred Best was, also big
hit, his cold having left him in good
voice. The Seattle Observation-Disclosures

Mrs. oscar Bjork, 15s Mt. Pleasant

splendid results from the use Of Doan's
Kidney Pills and therefore do not hes
itate to recommend them. For some
time was greatly troubled with back
aches, and when I first arose in the
morning the pain was always more
severe. often If would lie down on
the couch my back would become so
lame and painful I was scarcely able
to arise. My mother told me that my
suffering was due to my kidneys be-
ing at fault, and learning of Doan's
Kidney Pills, I went to N. d. SEWN

box. They proved to be just what

GONE BROKE.

The department of justice of the
state of Vermont has gone dry--its
funds are exhausted and it cannot pay
the salaries Of the court officials. This
is a pretty kettle Of fish for New
England state.
The Hon. John A. Mead, lieutenant
governor, offers to loan the state
$4,000 to meet these obligations, and
the Montpelier Journal, looking at the
situation with a political eye. says:
THE action will not hurt the stand
ing of Mr.. Mead in the least, and the
good will of lot of men scattered ev-
erywhere is a valuable asset
The editor Of the Rutland News
comments upon the situation thus;
1T is fine thing for him to do.
But the great state of Vermont should
have more self-respect than to take
the money By the way, how many
judges. sheriffs. states attorneys and
other court officers in the state, will
resign their positions If they have to
wait for their pay due from now to
July l until the legislature Of 1910 can
meet and appropriate the money?
Wen bet a cookie that not one of them
will resign even If they have to wait
sixteen or eighteen months for their
pay"
This is an unusual oversight on the
part Of the Solons and an unpleasant
predicament for all concerned. Mr..
Mead's proposition appears to be the
best way out of the dilemma.

NEGROES COMING NORTH.

The Charleston News and Courier
has this to say of the exodus of COL
ored workers to the north:
This is the time of year when
there is great exodus of house serv-
ants, and washerwomen and cooks to
the north from this part of the coun-
try. An advertisement printed In one
of the New York papers invites the
attention of colored tenants to apart
ments in West 126th street, near ST.
Nicholas avenue, where five large
rooms and bath and hot water supply
are offered with inducements at from
s23 to s25. We are told by a resi-
dent Of New York city now visiting
Charleston that a number Of landlords
in the metropolis prefer negro tenants.
1t is hoped that all the Charleston con-
tingent will be so well provided for
this year that they will conclude to
become permanent residents of New
York, and when they are established
there that they will send for all their
relatives who may be left behind"
1t is not a question of their getting
into the swim, but of lettering their
industrial condition. The wages paid
in the south at present are not one
third the wages paid at the north.
Virginia pays only $12 a month for
competent farm hands without board,
while the north and west are unable
to get such workers for from SIS to
$50 month and boarded. One reason
the south does not attract labor is be-
cause of its low wage rates. There
is room in other parts Of the country
for 100000 competent black men and
women at three and four times the
wage rate they get south.

schedule is concerned, for the two are
as near alike as two peas in a pod.
Not only this, but the Wilson tariff law
was not enacted until 1894, while the
panic commenced in 1893. There is no
radical changes to be made in the pres
emit law, SO says the chairman of the
finance committee, Senator Aldrich, of
Rhode Island. 1t seems then that the
business of the country must look
further for the cause of its present
condition, Losing 100000 900 per day."
Can 1t be expected to be any better
until the cause Is removed? If there
is to be no real radical change in the
present law, how in the name of rea-
son and common sense can you expect
the much needed Improvement? And
in conclusion, Mr.. Editor, is there not
some other vital principle or princi-
pies In a government of, by and for
the people, except party or partisan
ship? Was 1t intended, in the founda-
ton of this republic ca. to establish
principles vital to all the people? If
this be so, how can the people be divided,
arrayed against each other In partisan
factions? This being the peoples gov
eminent, why should they be divided?
Partisan republican leaders proclaim
that If the democrats get in power the
country will have free trade" Par
tisan democratic leaders proclaim that
If the republicans remain in power the
people will continue to be robbed by
tariff.
Let US see how this thing looks when
analysed. The partisan republican
knows, If he knows anything, that the
democratic partisan knows that il free
trade will ruin the country that it will
include all the democratic following.
Also the partisan democrat knows, If
he knows anything. that the republican
partisan knows that If a high tariff
Will rob the people it will rob the re-
publican following as well. Neither of
these partisans believe their own
words. The game Is to divide the peo-
pie. If free trade is ruinous it would
ruin every democrat in business as
well as every republican in business.
If high protective tariff robs the
members Of one party it will certainly
rob the members of the other party.
Divide and conquer is the rule of the
partisans. We, the people of the
United States, in order to form a more
perfect union" are not considered by
partisanship, but are divided into par
tisan factions. Is there a sane, in
telligent person who believes the
founders of this government intended
such a system Of government?

CIRCULATION
ADJOURNED CITY MEETING.

The voters of Norwich should attend
the adjourned city meeting in Town
hall this evening at the usual hour.
This meeting is the most important
meeting of the year. for by it the ap-
propriations are made and the annual
tax levied.
The men who have axes to grind
viii surely be there; but it is import
and that those who have none to
grind should be there. too. The reason
irrational and uncommendable things
are done in the annual city meeting
is because Of the neglect Of the cit
liens who could control the meeting
to attend.
The citizens of economical habits
and good judgment, who have no spe-
cial schemes to favor, are the ones
who can shape the policy Of the city
and regulate its affairs. Their pres
ence is check to the schemers and
political tricksters who are prompted
to act from selishness and to pay lit
tie attention to the future effects of
their action.
It is the duty Of the conservative cit
izen to be present and to agitate for
better municipal conditions. If they
do not do it, it is useless to find fault
with the action of the meeting. What
they permit to take place is equal to
an endorsement of policies which they
readily condemn when it is all over.

sLovENLY PAckINe HOUSES.

The disclosures of Inspector ]. F.
Harms concerning the filthy packing
house practices Of East st. Louis are
turing the people Of carelessness with
respect to the sources from which
hey receive lard and meats and
here is no Disgusting the fact that it
IS curing the meat eating habit.
It is strange that in this twentieth
century these great packing houses
do not realize that there is big bust
ness in cleanliness. That for the pub
lie to be assured that goods are clean
is 80 increase and make permanent the
tfude Of any packing house.
If what Inspector Harms says is
true, the Washington authorities
should see that conditions for the pro-
lection Of the health of the people are
improved, whether his resignation is
promptly accepted or not. The sick
ening conditions he describes call for
positive action on the part OF the gov
eminent, and the marketing of such
vile stuff ought to be made a prison
offence.
Inspector Harms has spoken his
piece and it is up to the government
officials to do their duty.
1t Is true that the East st. Louis
scandals will necessarily check the
consumption Of meat from that pack
ing center. And this reacts against the
farmers with beef and pork and NUT
ton for sale.
Cleanliness should be insisted upon,
and the people should avoid buying
goods put up by Jungle" concerns.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
Profanity.

Mr.. Editor: Whatever may be true
n regard to the fall and deprayity OF
rAan, it cannot be denied that man
kind take easily and naturally to
vices repugnant to God and destructive
TO their highest welfare. The noble
and good In every generation give
earnest battle to the vices of their
Gay, and yet vices live on and on.
Like the devil grass Of the farms, they
cannot be rooted out entirely.
There Is one very prevalent vice that
gets hold of boys, often when they are
very young. 1t precedes frequently
tobacco, rum, opium or any other vice.
often the lisping infant Just out Of his
cradle, is heard struggling with pro-
fame oaths. learned from the older
members of the family the father OF
cider brothers. Thus profane swear
Ing is often a large part Of the vo-
oabulary Of the young man. Why do
you know that many men cannot con-
verse without punctuating their SEN
fences literally with profanity?
Profane swearing is the least profit
able and the most foolish of all the
vices. If a man drinks he gets some
thing. He gets fuddled. If he steals
he gets. something. So with all the
something they care for, but the
swearer gets nothing but the con-
domination of Him who has said: Il
will not hold him guiltless that taketh
my name in vain"
The prevalence Of profane swearing
end vulgar speech is shocking to de-
cency.
1t was my lot few years ago in a
[: ip on a steam yacht from Ashtabula,
en- Lake Erie, to Penobscot Bay, on
Ire coast of Maine. to come in contact
" tn seamen and machinists-men of
eN erage intelligence and ability. Dur
ill., this trip of 1000 miles was made
acquainted with the unconscious ease
with which apparently decent and
fardwoking men can indulge in pro-
fnnity too gross and too blasphemous
to describe. This vice is all too prev
alent in some communities and among
certain classes in every community.
Those of US who walk daily along
cur usually quiet and peaceful ways,
have little conception Of the fearful
amount Of profane swearing there is
emong the hoi polloi.
