Do the right thing if you have Nasal
Catarrh. Get Ely's Cream Balm at once.
Don't touch the catarrh powders and
Snuffs, for they contain cocaine. Ely's
Cream Balm releases the secretions that
inflame the nasal passages and the throat,
whereas medicines made with mercury
merely dry up the secretions and leave
you no better than you were. In word,
Ely'S Cream Balm is real remedy, not a
delusion. All druggists, 50cents, or mailed
by Ely Brothers, 80 Warren Street, New
York.

THE worst men in the Senate OF the
United States are not those who openly
oppose good meaSures-the most dam
gerouS are those who, while apparently
fayoring the laws demanded by the peo-
pie, seek to nullfy the good by amend
mentS and "jokers" OF various sorts.
There are several experts of this kind,
some on the Republican and some on the
Democratic side.

THE death of Mrs. Carrie Nation ends
very unique life, but the good that she
did is by no means ended. The whiskey
saloon cannot stand publicity, and Mrs.
Nation brought the business into the
limelight and accomplished vast reforms.
When she first began to smash saloons
in Kansas the people of that State had
their attention directed to lawless and
illegal traffic, and it was not long until
she had aroused a public sentiment that
strengthened the laws and made Kansas
really dry State.
With all her faults and idiosyncrasies,
Mrs. Nation was great reformer and
her good works will remain long after her
body has returned to dust

THE Canadian reciprocity bill, which
was passed by the House weeks ago,
was taken up in the Senate on Tuesday.
There seems to be little hope of passing
it, as we view the matter. The "inter-
ests" which are ever ready TO fight any
reduction of the tariff are using their in
fluence against it; the insurgents are OPP
posing it because they do not get in it
everything that they want; the Republi-
cans do not want even the smallest breach
made in the high tariff wall; and even
the Democrats do not agree upon its pro-
visions, though it is quite satisfactory to
the Democratic majority in the House.
But even though the bill may not pass at
this session, discussion of it will do good
and the people will get the benefit of
education upon the subject, which will
eventually result in the election OF Rep
resentatives and Senators who will carry
out the wishes OF their constituents.

BY final vote of "a to "a the United
States Senate on Monday passed reso-
luton providing for election of Senators
by direct vote of the people instead of by
Legislatures of the States. The objection
able Bristow amendment, which virtually
gives federal control of these elections
instead OF vesting the States with such
power, was incorporated in the bill by
the close vote of "A to "A, the Vice-Pres-
ident casting the deciding ballot in its
favor. The resolution must now 60 to
the House for its concurrence, and if
agreed to must be signed by the President
and ratified by the legislatures of three
fourthS of the States before il finally be-
comes effective. Senator Chiffon and
Senator Watson both voted for the reso-
luton and both opposed the Bristow
amendment.
While this measure is not what the
people had hoped for in every respect, if
is good thing that has been fought for
Tor many years, and we believe that il will
eventually eliminate great evil, namely,
the bebauching of State legislatures by
senatorial candidates.
