Kidney and Bladder weakness result

where it often remains to irritate and
inflame, causing u burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation at
the neck of the bladder, obliging you
to seek relief two or three times during
the night, The sufferer is in constant
dread, the water passes sometimes with
scalding sensation and is very pro.

avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call it,
because they can't control urination
While it is extremely annoying and
sometimes very painful, this is really
one Of the most simple ailments to over.

Salts from your pharmacist and take q

TOSHUA w. MILES, Collector OF Internal Revenue
y for this district has sent letter to Daniel Bur
ton Deputy Collector of Revenue in this CITY,
that his services will not be required after Novem-
ber 80.
Mr.. Burtons only fault in the eyes of Collector
Miles is that he a Republican. The paramount
sideraton for his is that it will pave the way
Tor the appointment OF Salisbury Democrat to the
Dice Mr. Burton holds. In other words, Mr.. Burton
is to be made victim the Democratic spois sys-
tom Just as many other competent Republican Federal
officials have been sacrificed to Democratic patronage

Mr. Burton has been a wonderfully competent Fed

deal his official capacity will be sorry have him
retire recognizes his private and official worth and
would be well pleased he continued in office
indefinitely.
In the Democratic platform adopted by the Bati-
more convention in 1912 find the following: 'rhe
law pertaining to the civil service should be honestly
and rightly enforced to the end that merit and ability
shall be the standard of appointment and promotion
rather than service rendered TO political party
The insincery of that declaration has been demon
stlated in thousands OF instances since the Wilson
administration took over the national government In
stead Of continuing in Office merit and ability
the national Democracy has made service rendered
to political party" the chief recommendation OF
Democrats seeking Federal office and thrown "merii
and ability to the winds IN addition il has made
