The American exports to the land of the Don dtiring the past fiscal year were larger than for any other year with the exception of 1883. They cannot get along without America's help on the other side of the ocean. m". ̂ IS THIS AMERICA? I . f , The American people look" upon the v' Outrageous. atrocities of the Nihalists of Itaaa*, the Mafia of Italy and the Box- , W8 of China with a feeling of horror arid i|K^lire not slow in censuring those countries , for their inability to crash the life out v . Of these infamous societies. * But for the love of freedom and the J,/ ' future of our sons and daughters let us *: Observe the state of affairs in our own glorious republic. The attempted assi- f i nation of our beloved president is a warning that anarchy has come forth from its long hibernation, bent npon destroying law and order and taking • fan man lives. Why is anarchy not ^ " -crushedand what is the incentive to |^i|ause this last dastardly and cowardly Aeed, for every anarchistic act <->n ,• fecord, of this nature, has been ooward- in the extreme? f" J We become indignant when we see fhe caricatures of President McKinley • |in foreign publications, and are fren- .fied by the words that explain their ;/;fneaning. But can they be any worse Or more low and degrading than those y which appear in the Chicago American, New York Journal and San Francisco • " Examiner. Is it any wonder that the T//" Regenerate or illiterate ana/chist, who reads nothing but these journals, is in- ' duced to commit such crimes, When ,*•. i- ja president takes his oath of office every ^ (man in. the republic is bound as a native born citizen or by his oath of allegiance " to support him. Has Hearst done this? No, he has done everything to the con- _ „ trary and there is not one honest Demo- -„f crat in a thousand that will applaud his vilifying attacks upon the public V ^ officials that haye been, elected by the * majority. $ Where is the line to be drawn be- ytween journalism of this kind and an- * archy? There has always been mud slinging and probably always will be, but when officers have been honestly -i elected, newspapers regardless of poli- ; .tics should support the administration ..and criticise if necessary. The press however is abusing its liberty when it endeavors to degrade the president, his tf j r"'"'cabinet and the whole American people, f/, , fans the flames of anarchy, and invitee ,ft the ridicule of every nation. "v< President McKinley, by the grace of ^ \ God, will live to finish his work for his y country, and we doubt not that his ulti- v mate recovery will be hailed with joy J by every true citizen of the United -v States, regardless of political feelings. 'Jr 1 WITH the mints turning out $10,000,- 000 a month and the national bank circulation expanding at the rate of about three million dollars a month, there seems to be no immediate danger of a scarcity of money even though the business of the country is growing at a rapid rate. __ 1 JOHN P. ALTGELD has beeft suspic­ iously quiet the past few months. It is about time for him to break loose. A Certain Cure for Dysentarjr ARdl Diarrhoea. "Some years ago I was one of a party that intended making a long bicycle trip," says F. L. Taylor, of New Al­ bany, Bradford County, Pa. "I WHS suddenly taken with- diarrhoea, and was about to give up the trip, when Editor Ward, of the Laceyville Messen­ ger, suggested that I take a dose of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar­ rhoea Remedy. I purchased a bottle and took two doses, one beford starting and one on the route. I made the trip successfully, and never felt any in effect. Again last summer I was almost completely run down with an attack of dysentery. I bought a bottle of this same remedy, and this time one dose cured me." For sale by Julia A. Story and Gh W. Besley.

It has found public favor , more rapidly than any innovation intra duced into the postal service in many V years, and its success is assured. Even ; when it was first tested experimentally v in a few localities, it was not supposed that it would be possible to extend its a; benefits generally to the rural commun­ ities of the whole country for many years to come, but that accomplishment is no longer a dream or very remote ( from realization. By the time the $3,- 500,000 appropriated by congress for use ^ .during the present fiscal year has been f? expended, practically one-third of the | available territory in the United States Will be covered by rural routes, and the ft? probabilities are that even more rapid progress' will be made in supplying the- 3 remainder of the territory, because larger appropriations will be made for that purpose now that the success of the system has been demonstrated. Post­ master General Smith has decided to ask for an appropriation of $6,000,000 for the following two years, to be used in extending the system, and thia doubtedly will be allowed by congress In fact, it is believed that that body will be anxious to increase the allow­ ance in order that all sections of the country may enjoy the benefits of a daily mail delivery as soon as possible. A PURE and beautiful woman with a spotless character, has one dangerous foe following close at her heels in the form of a licentious man.

GASTRITIS Caused by gome Irritant Acting Upon the Mneoos Membrane of the Stomach. stories of such a villan than the proof of the shining, spotless life of a pure and noble woman. Society is largely to blame for such a condition of affairs. It generally listens eagerly to the liber­ tine, but turns a deaf ear to the plead- ings of clean, pure womanhood. A man who is guilty of destroying the character of a woman should be dealt with the same as the one who commits murder, for the assassination of a good Character is worse than murder. Inflamation of the stomach, gastric catarrh or gastritis, as this unpleasant affliction is variously called, may, like most inflamatory diseases, be acute or chronic in its course. The symptoms of gastritis are more or less fever, weak pulae, loss of appetite, coated tongup foul breath, bad taste in the mouth, the head aches dully. There is sensation of weight or distress in the stomach Gastritis is caused by some irritant act­ ing on the mucous membrane of the stomach, the irritant is often formed in the stomach by the fermentation of in digestible food. Gastritis will never develope if yon take regularly Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, the guaran­ teed cure for indigestion, constipation diseases arising from stomach troubles.
