/I'lIB Sdl'l'll HAS ALWAYS C'ONTROLLED. Mr. Livingston. of Georgia in re...sponse to Mr. Hewitt's bitter speech against the members of Congress from the South, said that the Southern mem bers. weak as they were in Mr. Hewitt's estimation, controlled the Government from its formation up to the bog-inning1 of the war. and that they were now about to assume control of it again
Mr. Livingston, in making this boastful declaration, doubtless had in his mind the speech made by Alexander H. Stephens to the Georgia convention in the beginning of ISfil. when he undertook to pervade his State not to .secede from the I'nioa. The follow ing extract from that remarkable speech, will show that Mr. Livingston was exactly right in regard to the control of the Government by the South prior to the war. Mr. Stephens said:
Hut again, gentlemen, what have we to gain by this proposed change of our relations to the general Government'.' We have always had the control of it and enn yet. if we remain in it and are as united as we have been. -We have had a majority of Presidents chosen from the South, as well its the control ami mini)ii/emcnt of tlw.se chosen from the Xorth. We have had sixty years of Southern Presidents to their'twent.vJour. thus controling the executive department of the Government. So of the .Judges of the Supreme Court, we have had eighteen from the South and lutt eleven from the North and, although nearly four-fifths of the judicial business has arisen in the free States, yet a majority of the court has always been from the South. This we have required so as to guard against any interpretation of the constitution unfavorable to us. In like manner we have been equally watchful to guard our interests in the Legislative branch of the Government. In choosing the presiding President I tiro tern) of the Senate, we have had twenty-four to their eleven. Speakers of the House we have had twenty-three and they eleven. While the majority of representatives, from the greater population, have always been from the North, yet we have so generally secured the speaker, because he, to a greater extent, shapes and controls the legislation of the country. have quoted enough of this remarkable speech to show that the historical fact asserted by Congressman Livingstone is true to the letter. It is clearly shown by Mr. Stephens that up to the beginning of the war the Southern members has, and maintained control of every department of the government. And does it not now look like the other part of Mr. Livingstone's statement that the South is preparing to control the government again, is equally true? The South again has the Speaker, and he, as Mr. Stephens shows, controls legislation. Nearly all the important committees appointed by the present Speaker of till' House have a majority of Southern members in them. I he President, while again elected from the Xorth, is largely in sympathy with the free trade notions of the South. Under the circumstances is it any wonder Mr. Bj*ice, the Democratic Senator from Ohio, the other day broke out with his urgent protest against the South and its present attempt to again assume control of all our allairs'.' Republicans 'have always protested against this unfairness, but their protests have had no weight with Northern dough-faces, who suffer themselves to be controlled by the Southern element. It isahopeful sign of the times when Democrats themselves begin to "kick" against this disposition of the South to run the government in the exclusive interest of that section.
IT is now certain that the United States will not interfere in behalf of the dethroned Queen of the Sandwich Islands. The un-American designs of Cleveland, Gresham. Blount and Willis have come to naught. The American doctrine is well stated by Senator Morgan in these words:
When a crown falls in any kingdom of the Western hemisphere it is pulverized. and when a scepter departs it departs forever, and the American opinion cannot sustain any American ruler in the attempt to restore them, no mutter how virtuous and sincere the reasons may be that seem to justify him.
This sentiment cannot be stated too often. Words fitly spoken are like apples of gold in pictures of silver.
AS A showing of what thT Democratic administration has done for the business of the country, the Boston Wool sales for the past week were 1,485,200 pounds, against 3.805,000' for the corresponding week of last year. This is one industry which has been especially attacked by the free trade theorists and deficiency makers in Congress.

The girl shook her head at speech, which jarred on her. "It's not money I cure about." she said. "What is it. then'.' Is it love?" he cried, In a voice suddenly full of passion. "Don't you think that 1 love you? What nan 1 do to persuade you? There are many things 1 hold dear in this world success, money, reputation, power—but I'd give them all up. without a murmur, if to win you. Mary. I" would. I swear I would.'' lie said, vehemently. "Won't yon trust me and be my wife, lass?"
His voice sank almost to a whisper and his eyes and face were alight with his love for the girl. "I have told you it cannot be. 1 am very sorry." she answered. lie stayed a full half-minute without speaking, merely letting his hand rest on her arm. while his eyes were1 fixed on her face. "Why can't it lie, Mary?" lie asked. "Do you doubt me?" "No, no, Mr. Gorringe." she answered, impulsively: "but—but—it is hard for me to have to say this 1 do not love—"
He interrupted her with a light laugh, and then seizing both her hands in his, he held her close to him and looked earnestly into her eyes. "I (Jid not ask you for your love yet. child. I can wait for that. 1 have plenty for both of us. Give me yourself that is all Task now. You trust mo, and Jove shall soon come. 1 will take you. love or no love, and he only too thankful to have you, my dear." ''No.no!" cried the girl, vehemently, struggling to free her hands. "Let me go. please, Mr. Gorringe. You have no right to hold me tike this."
He let her go instantly. "1 am'sorry," he said, quite humbly. "I forgot myself. 1 do forget myself, and everything else, when I am with you. Marv. Hut you must he my wife. I etinnot live without you." Then he started, and paled a little, asn thought plagued him. "It's not—but. no. it ean't be. or 1 should have seen. It's not that you care for anyone else, is it?" lie asked this in a. firm, low voice. •What right have 'you to question me?" said the girl, blushing, partly with indignation, partly with confusion.
The man looked at her keenly, knitting his heavy brows till they frowned ominously. "Do you think I'm a man to be fooled lightly?" he asked, in a quick, stern lone. Then ho changed again, and spoke quietly, without
girl
Then, as the girl was turning away, he went quickly to her and seized her arm rather roughly. ill you swear to me that you care for no one more than for me?" he asked, angrily. "Let me go, Mr. Gorringe: how dare you hold me like that?" she cried, angrily and excitedly, her face flushing with feeling.
He loosed his hold of her and walked on determinedly by her side. "I mean to have an answer." he said, doggedly. "You shall have no answer from me," she replied. "Then I'll watch you till I find out," he said, and then they walked on in silenue.
Suddenly as they turned a sharp curve in tlio road the man saw his companion start, and a troubled look came over her face: and then he noticed the color rise in her cheeks and deepen as a tall, upstanding, handsome young fellow approached. "Why, Mary, what's the matter?" cried the newcomer, stopping in front of them. "Good evening, Mr. Gorringe," he added, turning for a moment to the latter. "Matter, Tom? Why, nothing, of course," answered the girl. "Good evening. Koylance." said Reuben Gorringe "there's nothing more the matter than that Miss Aslnvortli— Mary, that is—and 1 have been for a walk together, and have had an interesting little talk. That's all." And while he was speaking, and after he had finished, he looked eurionsl from one to the other.
Indeed,' said Tom Roylance. coolly. "Then, a« Mary and I* have an appointment it's my turn to go for a walk with her, and to 'have an interesting little talk and as 1 had fixed in the other direction for the walk we won't trouble you to turn back," and without saying anything more he took the girl's hand, tucked it into his arm and walked away with her.

time to reply: "There's no need for pretense between us two. You've seen—you must hare seen—the hold you have over me. I've made no secrqt that I love you. You can do with me what you will, fot I a fool in your hands. But take care, my girl such power as yours over mc don't go without responsibility. It's a power that can move me for good or spoil me for life. ith such as me there's no middle course: and you can do what you will and. by if you fool me now for another man there won't be room for lis both on this earth. That I swear," and he clenched his fist and brought it down heavily on the pate in front of them. "I have listened to you too long." said the girl. When you talk to me about 'fooling you' I see how stupid I have been." "I'm sorry. 1 am: I swear I am: I didn't mean what I said. Ah. Mary, don't turn away like that. I'll go away if yon wish it. Hut 1 ean't trust myself when I think of losing you. Tell me I've no reason to think that." ''I've told ydu that I can never marry you and I deny you have a right to put such a question to me." "I have the right that love gives me,"' he burst out vehemently again. "Now, I believe there is somebody. Hut you shall never marry anyone, if you don't marry me: that 1 swear on my soul," he exclaimed, passionately. "And you know whether I'm a man to keen mv word."
From San Francisco Mrs. Detwiler writes, from her Laurel Ave. home, that she unwisely left her room all too soon when her baby was horn.
The result was an aggravated ease of displacement of the womb that, wholly prosl rated her.
The doctors tried medicines, apparatus, and she suffered everything. "I (loci(led to try Lydia K. Pinklinni's. Vegetable Compound. Theeffect was wonderful, and, thanks alone toher.l am nowwell."
Mrs. Kate Morris, 100Mulberry St., New York, says:

I am a living witness of the miraculous effects of Mrs. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Relief came with it at once? I sleep allnight,and am now as well as ever in my life."

Travis, of Thtirlow, tells a similar story of utter misery resulting from womb trouble all the fearful results of this dread trouble was upon her when the Lydia Pinkham Vegetable Compound came to change the whole mrreni of her life, and she ends up her letter by declaring: 1 owe all to you."

ward one "for Mary. She did not wish to make mischief between the two men. "Oh. no only some nonsense or other he has in his head." she answered. "Well, so long as he doesu't think too much about you 1 don't care. What did he mean by having an interesting talk with you?" "I was waiting for you at the gate where we generally meet when he came up and began to ta 11c about one thing and another." "Do 'you like Reuben Gorringe, Mary?" lie asked, turning and looking sharply into her face. "Like him?" she echoed, laughing, not quite at her ease. "What can it matter what a girl al the looms thinks of the manager of the mill?" "Yes, that's all very well, if you don't want to answer the question." said Tom Roylance. with more than a touch of jealous suspicion. "But if you do. I don't: and for half-an-incii of yarn I'll tell him what I think. 1 know too much about Mister Reuben Gorringe. He's a clever chap, no doubt about that but he's just a. baby in some hings. He's an ugly customer till he getshis way. though, and no mistake."
Tom Roylance was a lighthearted. careless, rather thoughtless young fellow, clever enough to have made rapid progress In his work, lint, like many another, content to like, fortune as it came, and lacking the strong determination to forego the pleasure of the moment in order to secure success, lie was quick and shrewd, a good workman, steady and reliable, and capable, in the face of any great emergency, of showing plenty of free character. He was a general favorite both in and out of the mill, and Reuben Gorringe himself had taken to him. But he could not help meeting all the bothers of life with a laugh and a jest. He was careless enough to be his own enemy but too straight and true to be an en emy of anyone else.

Medical writers claim that the successful remedy for nasal catarrh must be non-irritating, easy of application, and one that will reach the remote sores and ulcerated surfaces. The history of the efforts to treat catarrh is proof positive that only one remedy has completely met these conditions, and that is Ely's Cream Balm. This safe and pleasant remedy has mastered catarrh as nothing els,e has ever done, and both physicians and patients freely concede this fact. Our druggists keep it.
