MARCH 6,1897.
A DICKER COMPLETED. After several weeks of wrangle, scheming and flickering, among the pol iticians of the republican party of Ohio, it was finally settled that Mark Hanna, the boss ot the party in that State should ba appointed U. S. Senator in place of Sherman, who goes into the cabinet The appointment and unfitness of it will attract the attention of the politi cal student of Ohio. Hanna was little known outside of his congressional district. But why appoint such a man to such an important position? Simply to close up a political dicker. He, hereto tore, has been known as a tradesman, a manufacturer, a wealthy man, but as Jor legislative JexperieLce or statesmanship he knew nothing about such things He managsd the financial portion of the republican party canvass last year, bled the manufacturers, bankers and high tariff men, and by the use of the immense corruption fund placed at his disposal pulled the party through to success. But how ill fitted is this man to occupy a place in balls once resounding with the eloquence of a Clay, a Webster, a Benton. It smacks of stiroasm to term such a man, a truckling politician, a schemer in a dirty pool, whose whole life has been devoted to money getting only and knows nothing of statesmanship, a U. S. Senator. He is to be rewarded for his services, regardless of what the country ana bis State has aright to demand. It looks like the Statu had run out of brains when such men are placed in such important and honorable positions to represent the interest of a great State. It shows also that Ohio, like Pennsylvania, is completely within the grasp of a few political bosses. Pennsylvania has had its Oamerons and Quays who control it politically as thoroughly as if it were their own property. Ohio under Hanna,
Foraker and a few othsrs, is going in the same direction, and the people after a time, as in Pennsylvania, will have little or nothing to do toward controlling its political destiny.
ADJOURNED.
The State legislature adjourned on Monday after a 61 days' session. We do -not know of anyone in particular, aside from door keepers, secretaries etc., regreting the closing of theStateAssembly. It was solely republican in instincts and outstincta, and its mood hereafter will not be particularly applauded when a study ia made of it. There were several good measures introduced, but many were defeated through the deep paitisan feeling that permeated the majority. A few good laws were passed, very few, but from the expanse attaching to them is without (j lestiion evident that in the long run the State will be but little better off for this work transacted and p&id for by it, and that if State legislatures could meet but once in four years it will be economy for it to do so if nothing else.
THE ADDRESS.
President McKinley's inaugural address on "taking his seat" is replete with wise axioms and patriotic utterance?, but so were Harrison's, Cieve land's and the rest of the heads of the nation. It is deeds, however, not words that the people would prefer to bear of. The man or men who can successfully pull the nation out of the mire and mud of bard times and place it upon the high land of prosperity is the one altogether lovely and most to be desired.
Your Cough,
like a dog's bark, is a sign that there is something foreign around which shouldn't be there. You can quiet the noise, but he danger may be there just the same. SCOTT'S EMULSION of Cod-liver Oil is not a cough specific it does not merely allay the symptoms but it does give such strength to the body that it is able to throw off the disease*
You know the old proverb of "the ounce of prevention?" Don't neglect your cough. A book which will tell you more on the subject sent free on request*

THE DRuaaisrsj NEXT. The temperance people of the State having two years ago secured a law governing the retailing of liquors in accordance with their wishes, and having at this last session of the legislature secured an anti-quart law, may be expected from now on to turn their batteries on those druggists through the State known to use too much whiskey in the prescription departments of their establishments. We observe that in some places in the State already several druggists have been indicted for selling liquors in a form contraiy to law, and druggists guilty of it will find in many cases very thorney paths to tread hereafter. The business ot filling prescriptions with whiskey as a part of it has been greatly abused. "For medicinal purposes" fails to convince many people that the applicant for such prescriptions is sick, or requires that kind of a stimulant where liquor is a part of the compound. It is alleged by some observers that many drinking men secure the greater portion regularly behind the prescription stands of some drug stores. And they always aim to convince others that they are unwell, and are scouring medicine for some bodily infirmity. The dodge has become thread-bare, and ceases to work. If any druggists from now onjffind them selves entangled within the meshes of the law they must lay the blame upon themselves in most cases in not following the strict letter of the law, and in permitting their cupidity to overreach their respect for it.
KILLING OF THE QUACKS. The legislature in passing the law
termed the Medical Bill, have struck a death blow at the quacks, or traveling charletans who for years past have vis ited every county seat in Indiana on their pretended profession of healing and curing the sick, weak and debilitated. No longer in flaming advertisements through the newspapers will the public be informed that Dr. Takemoremoney, "the eminent specialist, late from London and Paris," will be hero for one day only," to treat the patients that may flock to his room, or that other especially cheeky humbug, the "Indian doctor," who advertises to treat sick people with "natures's remedy, the roots, barks, herbs." etc. The gentleman with gold eye glasses, a few set medical phraseB and enormous gall, must remove from the Hoosier State, if the law just passed is enforced. They must seek otner climes to practice upon the verdant and unthinking, as Indiana will cease be a field for them hereafter. People tir^d of the home physician must seek some other source for spending their money in aiming to be bealed, as the quack will not be present hereafter to humor, cajole and humbug them. If for no other reason that it will prevent a portion of the oomraunity from throwing away their money, the lew is timely and wise.
STATE EDUCATIONAL INSTITU TIONS. Figures produced at the late session of the State legislature show that the State Universit} at Bloomington, re ceives $123,000 annually from the State, the State normal at Terre Haute, $60,0C0, and that the presidents of these institutions receive from $5,000 to $4,000 each per annum. Neither Walash, DePauw nor Franklin colleges receive a cent from the State, and yet they graduate juet as able scholars and turn out just as good business men ae these State pail concerns. The system of supporting these institutions at the expense of the tax payers is wrong, unjust, unfair, and in time we are satisfied will be thoroughly overhauled and corrected. Their principal mission at this time seems to be to support petty positions to decaying politicians of both parties in the way of trustees and such like. Place all school institutions of the State, whether sectarian or not, on the same footing. Let the State give equal aid to all or to none. A student whether studying to fit him
self
for the ministry or the profession of civil engineer, so far as the State is concerned, should receive equal consideration.
THE NEW CABINET.
The following is President McKinley's cabinet as confirmed by the Senate: Secretary of State—John Sherman, of Ohio.
Secretary of the Treasury—Lyman J. Qage, of llbnois Secretary of War—Russell *A Alger, of Michigan.
Attorney-General—Joseph McKenna, of California. Postmaster-General—James A, Gary, of Maryland.
Secretary of the Navy—John D. LoBg, of Massachusetts. Secretary of the Interior—Cornelius N. Btiss, of New York.
Secretary of Agriculture—James WilSOD, of Iowa.
NUST GO.
All efforts to save the necks of Jackson and Walling, the murderers of Pearl Bryan at Newport, Ky., by their attorneys and friends seem useless, and both will probably be taken to the gallows on the 20tli of this month and executed. Aside from relatives there is little or no sympathy for them from any source.
"WOMAN'S INFLUENCE,
The influence of women upon the civilization of the world, could never be measured.
Because of her, throues have been established and destroyed. The flash of her eye, the touch of her hand, and we have the marvellous power of women, glorious in the possession of perfect physioal health.
Lydia E. Pinliham, by her wonderful discovery of the Vegetable Compound," has done much to place this great power in the hands of women.
She has lifted thousands and thousands out of the misery brought by displacement of the womb, and all the evils that follow diseases of the uterus.
The Vegetable ompound" restores natural cheerfulness, destroys despondency, euros backache, strengthens the muscles, restores the womb to its normal condition, and you are changed from a physical wreck to the joy of your home and friends.
By the way—the leading druggists tell us that the demand for Lydia K. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is simply beyond their power of understanding, and what is best of all, it does the worlc and cures where the t»st physicians utterly faiL
NO MORE QUART SHOPS. A law passed by the legislature just adjourned, does away with the selling of liquors by the quart, and those prcven guiltv of so doing after the law is enforced will probably undergo very severe penalties. In the movement bringing the law about, temperance people and saloon keepers were a unit before the legislature and both worked for the passage of the law. It is a law in the in terest of good government, and we see no objection in its passage and enforcement,
HAVE you noticed any particular spirt ot prosperity since McKinley was swota iu? It
waB
to come just the minute it
was known that he was elected, but that event took place four months ago, and instead fifty banks and hundreds of business houses have gone djwn in various parts of the country, prosperity having failed to reach them in-time.
THE time of paying the first installment of taxes has been changed by the State legislature from the 3d Monday of April to the 1st Monday of May. What particular benefit to a tax payer thiB may be we are not advised. A delay of two weeks will not help to pay taxes any quicker than it it were delayed to the 1st Monday of July.
MCKINLEY'S cabinet, as announced, aside from Sherman and Gage, seems to be composed ot very ordinary material. Aside from the business of holding down offices heretofore they are proba bly very mediocre men and have had no experience in anything else.
There is more catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseasas put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be 'incurable. For a great manv years doctors pro nounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address,
