A United Press.

. “u r venerable contemporary. the B05-
at Post, “the representative Democra-
tfr paper of New England,” unfurls the
tag of our Union at the head of its edi-
torial page, defines its position in sev-
en words, “Peace with honor or war
with victory,” and follows this admira-
lclc beginning with a plea for "a united
press.” so timely, patriotic, and sensi~
hi2. that we produce it in full, as fol-
lows, says the Washington Post:

“in the impending crisis we have a
united. Congress and a united public
sentiment sustaining the President.
Now let us hope that we have one more
element of unity—a united press.

“The American press has not brought
on this trouble. It did not start the
rlSuban war or blow up the battle-ship
Maine. It is the hard facts that have
produced the present conditions, not
the setting forth cf the facts by the
press. And in the situation which
these: facts have produced the press
shouldhe found closely united in sup-
port of the government.

“Let us have no doughfaces among
rhepress of the United States, and let
as have no papers which place com—
mercialism above patriotism.

“The President, elected by the peo-
ple of the country, stands for the coun-
try' in this crisis. Let us be slow to
disparage him. ' Let us be quick to en-
courage and sustain him in those ef-
Fn'sts which in his best judgment he
puts forth to uphold the dignity, the
honor, and the interests ofthe country.
if we are to drift into war, or be forced
into war, there should- be behind the
President, not only a united Congress
and a united people. but a loyal and
suited“ press. ”

None of the three foreign wars in
. which this 1 country has engaged has
found the people of New England—or
for that matter, of any section of the
i’fnited States in support of the govern-
ment. If we are to have war with Spain,
that sold ..condition will be reversed.
QUCEIBSSIJES set the most splendidly
impressive example in our history by
the-solid unity of its action in the fifty—
:m'ilion appropriation. There are no in
tensor partisans. no men more ready or
more glad to contend for party at any
fining time, no men who believe more
firmly that they are right and their op-
ponents wrong, than a. large part of the
membership of Congress. The simple
Sac}. that this body, acting for the peo-
ple and the States, put all party is-
sues out of sight, and made haste to as-
sure the President of the support of all
indies and factions united as American
patriots, is a lesson of incalculable
"talus. It proves, as scarcely anything
the inherent

ehse could have done,

aching could make for peace, that lesson
will And, if “peace with honor” can-
not-be brought out of the troubled con—
dititms, that lesson points to the earli-
est possible victory in the conflict upon
which duty will compel the Nation to
enter.
YVhy may not the press, like the peo-
gde and their Congress, be united in
:ihe impending crisis ‘3 It requires no
sacrifice of principle, no surrender of
Tit-chef or conviction. for the newspapers
of all parties and the non-partisan pa-
acts to get together and hold together
till the end of this chapter in our his-
my. ‘Here is an issue that may well
has permitted to dominate all others un-
til it is settled. In the campaign of
£30612. we had a political issue which sent
a million or more of anti-protection
waters into the host that voted for the
mother of the McKinley tariff, and

disappears.
follow that example?
those few newspapers which are trying
to mix the silver issue with this emer-
gency, and those few which, while pro-
fessing to support the President, miss
no chance of stabbing him in the back,
get a new inspiration from'the example
of Congress ‘3

The Post hopes for peace in spite of
all the indications of a rupture. It
hopes that Spain will not compel the
United States to make choice between
war and dishonor-~for in that event
the instantaneous answer will be war.
But, whatever may be the outcome of
existing conditions, the occasion is oue
that calls for unity of purpose and ac-
tion among all the agencies that are in-
fluential in molding public opinion.
Our Boston contemporary shows a just
appreciation of patriotic duty in its plea

for a united press.

The tunes of their youth are always
the sweetest music for old people.

Little baskets of candy chips are gifts
which juveniles greatly appreciate.

You needn’t depend on a man whose
dog will not follow him.

The genuine old-fashioned short-cake
rarely appears save on the home table,
the fluffy, eggy substitute being what
is commonly known now as Shortcake.

A person must be blessed with a won-
derful amount of savoir faire not to feel
like a consummate monkey when being
photographed in fancy dress costume.

The individual who knows it all is
apt sometimes to make a trifling mis-
take, the latest faux pas of that wise
one being overheard yesterday when
he announced that the Earless of War-
wick had a son.

Do not consider that a woman is in-
ebriated because her hat is resting on
one ear. It may be that this disreput-
able appearance is due solely to the
fact that she washed her hair the night
before and cannot keep her hatpins in
it. .
Some very freakish jackets are be-
ing showu for spring wear, but the
most extraordinary garment is some-
thing which is a cross between a Mot-h-
er Hubbard and a Newmarket ulster
and has neither the comfort of the one
nor the fit of the other. ' _

The bicycle skirt becomes a perfect
rainy-day garment for the woman Who
has sufficient courage to wear it.

Rest assured that the woman who
gossips to you of other persons will
give you the same raking over the coals
when she has a chance.

A widow can get even with her sec-
ond venture when he compares her
cooking with his mother’s by calmly
comparing him with her first husband.

Many women of literary instincts in
their efforts to Luild up a “salon” find
that they would succeed better if they
turned their energy to a saloon instead.

It is so easy to give things away and
so hard to discover after it is done that
you could have put them to some good

use your-self. »

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four
hours; a sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the kidneys,
When urine stains linen it is evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire
to urinate or pain in the back, is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out of order.

 

 

WHAT To 00.

There is comfort in the knowledge so -
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer‘s l
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy '
fulfills every wish in relieving pain in
the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every part of the urinary passages. It
corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad ef-
fects following use of liquor, wine or
beer. and, overcomes that unpleasant '
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to urin-
ate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
It stands the highest. for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases. If
you need a medicine you should have
the best. Sold by druggists, price fifty
cents and one dollar. You may have a
sample bottle and pamphlet both sent
free by mail upon receipt of three two-
cent stamps to cover cost of postage on
the bottle. Mention THE GAZETTE,
