The Philadelphia Record, a vigorous tarifi‘ reform Democratic newgpaper, says: “The tarifi' controversy is practically at an end, or, at least, it will not set:- ously disturb the deliberations’pf Con- gress for many a year to come. Various Democratic Senators and Representatives are giving utterances to statements quite opposed to the Record’s cheerful and pacific predic- tions. They do not, by any means, admit that the “controversy is practi- cally ended.” Throughout the campaign they declaredthat the war must go on. Undismayed by disaster their voice is still for war. While these warriors do not propose that the House shall repass the Wilson bill and send it to the Senate, they. do propose something that Will “seriouslydisturb the deliberations of Congress.” if persisted in, and will compel the President to call the Ffty- iourthCongress in extraordinary session soon after the 4th of next March to pass the appropriation bills for the next fiscal year. In other Words, these gentlemen de- clare that the “popguns” must be fired. But the cannot be put through the Senate in opposition to a determination of the Republican Senators not to let them go through. The attempt to pass either of them will open up a discussion of the tariff question in allots forms and phases. The results of the cam- paign have naturally braced the opposi- tion to these bills, and the Republican Senators will be prepared to do all the talking required to insure their defeat. The friends of the “popguns” will have it initheir power to cause an extra ses- sion, involving the loss of many good places held by their friends in the House, but they will signally fail in any attempt they may make to get those bills on to the statute book. All the Republican Senators who have expressed their views on this question are in accord. All of them declare that no more tarifi‘ legislation shall be done by the Fifty-third Con~ gress. They expect In oppose it as successfully as the Democratic Sen- ators opposed the force bill. The same kind of sauce that was served with the Republican goose will be brought in for the Democratic gander. v' Far Away Alaska. When Secretary Seward purchased the territory of Alaska most people wondered what use the United States would ever have for this frigid section of Northwestern America. Now that the Western Territories have been narrowed down to three, which will become States in the near future. peo ple are beginning to ask quest ion about our Alaskian purchase and won- der what, if anything it is good for. The seal fisheries have been the sub- ject of international arbitration, new treaties and various conferences, with a view to prevent the extermination of the fur-bearing seals, but beyond the production of costly fur garments the possibilities of Alaska have received little consideration from the American public. The annual report of Govern- or Sheakley—who, by the way, is a‘ Pennsylvania Ex-Congressman—throws some light on these subjects and is well worth careful perusal. The population of Alaska do not crowd each other much,there being only about 32,000 people of all races, colors and conditions scattered over its 580,107 square miles of territory. But it has some natural resources which. will eventually attract a much larger poup- lation. Chief among these are gold, lumber and fish, including cod, halibut and salmon. The halibut supply of the country is chiefly drawn from this source already. The salmon canneries of California and Oregon are rapidly being transferred to Alaska, and it is almost certain to become within a few years a chief source of food fish supply. The exhaustion of the pineries of the Northwest have made the lumber sup- ply of Alaska worth looking after, and extensive saw mills have already been established in thé Territory. It is evident from :these statements that while Alaska will never be an agri- cultural section, nor a desirable place of residence, except to a few for health purposes, the time is near at hand when it will become apparent that Seward acquired better than he knew when he bargained for the territory. If it will not support a large population of its own, it will become an important fac- tor in furnishing articles .of necessity and comfort for the rest of the country. RELIFF IN SIX HOURS.

Just Read This. Thousands of people feel this way. Their nerves are weak and irritable, they pass sleepless nights; waking in the morning, tired and unrefreshed, with bad taste in the mouth,andvdull feeling head. They feel nervous, blue and discouraged, often havmg 'a sense of anxiety" and - apprehension, as of some inpending danger. . _ -. They feel they have lost: liliCl-l‘ nerve power and much of their energy and ambition. They often declare them selves as “feeling just good for 310th- ing.” This was so with Mrs. 1\. H. Clark, a prominent and well-known lady 'of Moretown, V-t. She writes the following unusually interesting" letter : "For. some time I have'been fear- fully pr'ostrated with nervous weakness. 1 was continually without'strength and unable to do my work. I Was com. pletely tired our, and my nerves were so weak I was good for nothing. “I could not sleep nights I was so weak and nervous, and when I arose in .the morning, I was as tired as when I went to bed, and sometimes even more so. I was entirely used up and miser- able. I had no appetite, and. the little food I could eat distressed me awfully. “I had a constant fear and dread that something was going to happen. I also had a cough and bronchitis. I em- ployed doctors and took medicines con- stantly, but without benefit. At this time a friend who had used Di. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy, and been cured by it, advised’ine to try it. / \ \\\ ' ‘ \ . s we \\\ ’/ .?\ 4?. ‘ . M44] Q \“WI'. ll . Till?” / . /, ,' f/ .‘i‘ / NBS. N.

The good I derived from this most wonderful med- icine was marvelous. “I can sleep well and my nerves are strong and quiet. My appetite is good and I can eat anything without dis- tress. I heartily recommend Doctor Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve rem- edy to everybody, for I believe it to be the best medicine I have ever found, and a great boon to mankind.” You who are sick and suffering just remember this: Dr. Greene’s Ner- vura blood and nerve remedy is the medicine that cures, and it is exactly what you want. There are countless numbers of personsin just this condi- tion. They are not sick with any par- ticular disease, but are out of order, have weak nerves and tired bodies. They have lost their snap and energy, and work becomes an effort, You need Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy. It will cure you. It is purely vegetable and harmless and is the discovery of Dr. Greene, of 35 West 14th Street, New York, the most successful specialist in curing ner- vous and chronicdiseases. He can be consulted free, personally or by letter. —-—-—¢ -. ARE YOU EVER ANNOYED by a buzzing or roaring sound in your head? Have you difficulty in hearing distinctly ?

The game presented by Harvard was as gal- lant and as stubborn as any that has been seen on a foot ball field. From first to last there. was uncertainty and doubt, and the fortunes of foot ball war went back and forth through it all. It was a surperb game for the audience, full of open plays, frequent punts and dhring runs. Yale deserves credit for a splendid victory. Her team work was mag’hifi-~ cent, her play scientific, her energy un- flagging. The indomitable Yale. spirit was in everything that she did; the spirit that never says die and that has snatched so many victories from seem- ingly certain defeat. The Harvard eleven struggled splendidly to throw off the talismanic influence that the “Y” on a foot ball uniform always ex- erts, and they nearly succeeded. It was a superb victory for Yale and a grand, manly spectacle for thousands of enthusiastic spectators.

It goes without saying that elections at the South are regularly and systemati- caliy dishonest. The dominant party in any election precinct, has hitheit without let or hindrance “cooked” re- turns to suit its purposes and no South- ern man of integrity, attempts to deny the outrageous fact, that elections do not elect. - ' At the last election the democrats were clearly defeated in Tennessee. It is not questioned that on the face of the ' returns received by the .Secretary of State, Henry Clay Evans, the fusion Republican-Populist candidate for Governor, received more votes than were cast for Governor Turney, and that says the democratic Philadelphia Times, should settle the next Gover- norship. . It may be quite true that Governor Turney is one of the best executives the State of Tennessee has ever had, and it would have been highly credita- ble to the State had he been re-elected over the fusion of Republicans and Populists, but in the general slump of this year the fusion was successful for the single office of Governor in that State, and no pretext or technicality should be summoned to set aside the verdict of the people. If palpable fraud was visible on the face ’of the re- turns there might be excuse for with,- hcldingthe certificate fromthe successfu candidate, but there is no such plausi- ble pretext for withholding the place rom the successful candidate. The opportunities for committing election frauds were chiefly if not, wholly, on the side of the Democrats' They made the election law of the State and made it to suit their own purposes, and when they are defeated under their own law administered very largely by their own people, they must not com- plain. There would have been much more force in complaints of irregular- ity or illegal voting or returns coming from the other side as the Reepublican- Populists were comparativelymowerless to commit wrong against the purity of the ballot. It is a suspicious sign when Secretary of State Morgan refused a copy of the returns filed at the Capitol although demanded by Chairman Saunders of the Repubiican State committee. There should be no concealment of election re- turns in any State. IThey are public property and should be accessible to all parties'fio that fraud can be detected;and '. when the friendsof Mr. Evans areidenied access to the returns as filed with the Secretary of State, ' and prominent Democrats are claiming the election of the Democratic candidate, the action" of the Democratic leaders has an un- healthy look. If they have a Demo- cratic Legislature they might be able‘ to figure Evans out of his election and to maintain it, but no party has ever, won by open violation of the popular will, without paying the severe penalty sooner or later, and soon at the latest. It seems reasonable to assume that Mr. Evans has been elected Governor of Tennessee. and that should give him the oflice without question. Mrs. Abelihlerviewed. A Story From a Syracuse Ladv. Suffered from Heart Trouble. Liver Complaint and Rheuma- tism. and was Cured. The efficacy of Dr. Kennedy’s Favor- ite Remedy was never more substan- tiallyproven—and its testimonials reach into the thousands, than in the case of Mrs. C. S. Abell of this city. Mrs. Abell lives at No. 114 Roberts avenue where she was seen by a report- er who had heard of her case. She talked freely of what she termed a most “marvelous” cure. She said : "For a number of years I have been troubled witha liver complaint that made me almost helpless at times. Complica- tions set in, among them rheumatism, and I became so ill I could scarely walk across the floor without aid. I consult- ed one of our home physicians, who in- formed me that I had heart trouble, and began treating me for that. The treatment did no good, and I be- came convinced that he didnot under- stand my case. One day I picked up a newspaper and read of Dr. Kennedy’s Favorite Remedy, which I purchased, and began ' taking, and improved greatly. I have now taken six bottles, and was never so well in my life. I can say nothing but kind words for Dr. DaVid Kennedy's Favorite Remedy, to which I owe so much. I know of another casein which Favorite Remedy restored to health a friend of mine who was thought to be incurable.” Mrs. Abell said she would be glad to describe her case to any sufi'erer who may call upon her, The family are quite as profuse in their praise of Fa- vorife Remedy, as Mrs. :Abell herself. Dr. David Kennedy’sFavorite Rem- edy is a never failing specific in dis- eases of the skin, liver, kidneys and blood. It restores the disordered liver to a .healthy condition and corrects constipation. It is a certain cure for the disease peculiar to women. It cures scrofula, salt rheum, erysipelas, nervousness, loss of sleep, or that worn out ‘feeling. In cases of rheumatism, dyspepsra, gravel, Bright’s disease, diabetes and bladder troubles, it has cured where all else failed, Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy is sold by all dealers in medicine at $1 a bottle, or six bottles for $5. ~—-¢+ The first three volumes of Larned’s History for Ready Reference, have been secured for our public library.

Robert Louis Stevenson’s recent admis- sion that his “Treasure Island” was based upon ideas appropriated from “Robinson Crusoe” and “Tales of a Traveller” inspires a pedantic contem- Shakespeare, Goethe, Cervantes, Voltaire, Dryden, Daniel Webster, Charles Sum- ner and other eminent orators and writ- ers were consummate plagiarists. These examples are misleading, and the deduc« tions drawn from them false. in the productions of these men may oc- casionally be found expressions bearing a close similarity to sentiments and ideas uttered before by others. It is sometimes difficult to convey a truth clearly and for- cibly except in phraseology that has been current for generations. But this is altogether different from im- plying that Shakespeare, Goethe, and recognized geniuses of like standing were imitators or echoes, “burglars of other men’s ideas,” to employ a term Disraeli once applied to Sir Robert Peel. In pay- ing tribute to such men the world has not been crowning impostors. A spontano ous repetition of the thought, and even the language of another occasionally, is a. peculiar trait of the mind that is seem- ingly unavoidable. It is like the act of a master of instrumental harmony who, in constructing an original composition, will sometimes glide unconsciously into strains which had their birth in the mind of another, and unperceived haunt his own. Some of the finest flights of elo- quence have undoubtedly been thus in< spired. Edmund Burke’s fine tribute to Marie Antoinette and the per-oration of Webster’s reply to Hayne were evidently prompted in part by certain passages in “Paradise Lost.” Such “plagiarisms,” however, are inci- dental and generally accidental. They do not touch the title of Shakespeare and his kind to intellectual kingship. The .work of such men must be judged as a whole, not by its flaws or apparent flaws. 'The originality of Avon’s famous son is too well established to be a subject of controversy at this day. This is true of Goethe, Cervantes, Burke, Webster and others. Mr. Stevenson’s modesty and jcandor‘ to the contrary,~mu'ch the same may be said - of‘ , himself. “other writers no doubt he has sought, biiiii’n spite of this his fascinating: pages bear a stamp of individuality which it‘ is as impossible to deny as it is for him to dis'o'wn. . - . Fate and the Girl Athlete. Long she stood at the window and mused. The rays of the setting sun en- tangled themselves in her Titian hair, or surrounded her glorious height of five feet eight with an aureate halo. Proud, queenly, limbed like a. goddess, she was indeed a magnificent specimen of femi’ ninity. “Strange,” she muttered. And then a soft, self-pitying, half-happy smile flitted across her face like a gleam of April sun- shine. “Strange,” she said again, “to think that I, who only six short months ago was the quarter-back of the Emancipated Maidens’ football eleven, should have lost my heart to a. man whose collar is a size and a half smaller than mine. But such is fate. And I love him!” Carelessly picking up a forty-pound dumbbell, she tossed it out of the window and across'the lot, and then sought her boudoir.—-Cincinnati Tribune. — Kisses Are Uncertain in Price. The price of a stolen kiss varies in different countries. In America the court usage fixes it from $5 to $10, pro- vided the thief don’t bite the kissee. In Leudon it ranges from half a. crown to half a sovereign. In Ireland it has no commercial value. In France the tariff is fixed by the woman herself, and no one gruuibles. In India an officer in Her Majesty’s service has just been requested to resign for asking a lady to allow him to kiss her. The superfine standard of virtue thus suddenly brought to light creates some amusement in England, and Truth asks if compulsory retirement is deemed the proper penalty in this case, what Would be the fate of the man who takesa kiss without asking leave, and suggests something lingering with boil- ing oil in it. No Occasion for Formalltles. “Is this your umbrella, sir?” inquired the stranger in the brown suit, hurrying after the stranger in the drab suit, who had just got off the train.
