RX80LT OF &SCIPBOCITT. One of the beet features ot the McKinley law was the provision relating to reoiproc&l trade arrangements with foreign nations. It was one of the greatest feats ever accomplished in statesmanship, and to the Harrison Administration belongs the credit. Steps are now being taken by the Cleveland Administration to abrogate these treaties, and for no other reason than to gratify a personal grudge whioh the present Secretary of State holds against ex-Presi-dent Harrison. A study of the statistics contained in the second annual report of the Bureau of American Repub lies shows the following results in regard to the workings ot the reciprocity treaties with Brazil and Cuba. The United States exported to Brazil in the years 1890, 1891 and 1892 respectively, merchandise to the value of 811,972,211, $14,120,246 and 814,291,873. In the same years the imports of merchandise into the United States from Brazil were $59,318,756, $83,320,595 and 8118,633,604 respectively—an increase within two years of over 100 per cent. The exports to Cuba increased in round numbers from $13,000,000 in 1890 to $18,000,000 in 1892, and those of Porto

Rico from $300,000 to $2,850,000, Cuba's exports to the United Stated ir the' three years in lound numbers, $54,000,000, $62,000,000 and 878,000,000 respectively, while those of Perto Rico to the United States decreased from $4,000,000 in 1890 to $3,150,000 in 1892.

Jons E. LAMB is said to be disgruntled because Grover refused to accede to his demands and rescind the order o£ President Harrison placing letter carriers on the civil service list. It may be a little presumptuous on the part of Mr. Lamb, but on the theory that the President is only a clerk to the Senators and Representatives, his demands are not extraordinary, as he ex pects to be the next Congressman from this district. And besides are not Voorhees and Lamb one and the same?

As Senator Yoorhees and Represents tive Brookshire profess to be "strict constructionists" of the constitution, will they please quote the section of that instrument which gives them the power or the authority to appoint the collector of internal revenue and the postmasters? A casual reading of the newspapers leads one to believe that the President is their clerk and must act AS he is ordered by Senators and Representatives.

PRESIDENT CLEVBLAND and Secretary Carlisle this week reached a point in their relations of absolute disagreement. They have come to the place where the autocrat of the White House says, "You shall," and the insubordinate Secretary of the Treasury defiantly replies, "I won't." Mr. Carlisle's financial statement indicates that threatened disrap tion of the Cabinet has caused the Presi dent to yield.

APPEARANCES would indioate that John E. Lamb practically wants the earth. He is not satisfied with simply naming ing his law partner, Joshua Jump, to be Collector of Internal Revenue, but he insists that he shall also name the post master at Terre Haute. As Lamb and Voorhees drink from the same oanteen &t can safely be set- down that they have it in for Brookshire. A pretty fight is brewing.

THE New York Press wants to know why Grover does not appoint William N. Roach, of North Dakota, as '"my commissioner" to teach James H. Eckels the rudiments of banking. Mr. Boach has the reputation ot beiog a unique expert in the banking business.

THE $100,000,000 reserve fund held for the redemption of the 8346,000,000 of greenbacks has been invaded to the extent of $3,000,000. Wliat.is it there for but to use in cases of emergency like the present.

IT is to be hoped that the litigation over Fayerweather's millions is nearing the end. That $100,000 that Wabash College is to get will then be forthcoming. She needs it in her business.

UP to date President Cleveland baa appointed twenty editors to positions trust and emoluments. Thus the work of "subsidizing the press," as Mr. Cleveland once termed it, goes on.

REPRESENTATIVE BROOKSHIRE has made up his mind not to lie down and let everybody run over him. He proposes to have his share of the offices or know the reason frhy.

SOME of the South Carolina free trade papers want to have cotton put on the dutiable list. Hancock was right. To Democrats the tariff is a local issue.

An Open Letter to Women. Laurel Ave., San Francisco, May 18, 1892.

Dear friend of women When my baby was born, five years ago, I got up in six days. Far too soon. Result: falling of the womb. Ever since I've been miserable.

I tried everything: doctors, medicines, apparatus but grew worse.

I could hardly stand and walking without support was impossible.

At last I saw an advertisement of Lydia E. Pinkhatris Vegetable Compound, and decided to try it. The effect was astonishing. Since I took the first bottle my womb has not troubled me, and, thanks only to you, I am now well. Every suffering woman

your compound is. It is a sure cure." Mrs. A. Detwiler.
