FRIDAY. MARCH 10. 1899
Two MORE Philippine islands, Mabate and Ticoa, have invited Gen. Otis to take peaceable possessioD. The lonesome Aguinaldo should ask permission to leave Uncle Sam's territory.
THE Wisconsin legislature has enacted astringent anti-pass law. Indi ana seems unable to do so, but perhaps a plank might be introduced in the next Republican state platform that would be of some assistance in bracing up the backbone of our next legislature^
J, THE Crawfordsville Review denies that it is the duty of the street commissioner to look after the condition of the sidewalks and crossings. If attending to the thoroughfares of the town is not within the province of this
Interesting functionary the public would be mightily pleased to know what is his prerogative and what are his duties.
THE appointment of John C. Wingate as a member of the state board of tas commissioners comes pleasantly to his legion of friends here at home. While Mr. Wingate has bsen an indefatigable political worker he has not been an indefatigable office seeker and hi6 preferment is the more acceptable on that account. Besides being a clever gentleman and a deserving worker he is possessed of the more sterling attributes, honesty and capability. Governor Mount made a most happy selection.
A RESIDENT of Alaska for twenty-one years, Gov. John G. Brady, says that if the people of the territory hau nothing but what is taken from the sea they would be richer than the inhabitants of northern Europe. The value of AlaBkan fish products last year was $4,000,000, and the total Bince the purchase by the United States is 807,000,000. Bass, red snappers, ilounders, crabs and clams are plentiful, and the cod, halibut and herring have hardly been touched. Heavy forests of spruce, red and yellow cedar and hemlock extend for 650 miles along the coast. Barley, oat6, flax, and hardy vegetables mature perfectly. Stock cattle, horses and poultry flourish. Grass is abundant, and in time Alaska should export butter and cheese. Copper, coal and iron are found in large quantities, and traces of gold are widely distributed. The territory for which we paid $7,200,000 is worth hundreds of millions, and its possession has not in the slightest degree been a national embarrassment.
IIOW TO GET AT SOME TRUSTS. Ounton's Magazine believes that when industries built up by a protective tariff form a trust and raise prices the tariff should be removed. It argues as follows: "Until the tariff—a very high one at first—was placed upon foreign tin, the tin-plate industry had no existence in the United States. It has been born and nurtured by the protective aid the public has given it. Its very existence is due to the good will and political good sense of the United States. The tin-plate trust is one of the 'fool examples' of using the trust organization to put up the price. Of course it would be unwise for the public to hamper a really helpful industrial movement because speculative 'grabbers' get temporary possession nor should a few mistakes of this kind be permitted to be used effectively against the protective tariff as a general policy. Nevertheless it would be perfectly safe and the part of good policy for congrets to pass a law empowering and instructing the secretary of the treasury to withdraw the protective duty from all products the prices of which are raised by
truBt
organizations. In short, the moment a trust organizasion raises the price of a product enjoying any degree of protective duty, it should thenceforth be put upon the free list and become subject at once to world competition. If the organizers of trusts in any line have not economic sense and public spirit enough to refrain from using their concentrated power to tax the public by increasing prices, the public should at once withdraw any protective advantage it has given to that industry. The primary object of protection is to make it possible to stimulate the development of domestic industries but when industries have become ^established and proceed to take advantage of this protection for monopolistic, price-raising purposes, they Bhonld it once be thrown on their own competitive resources."

We are glad to note the attitude of Waynetown on the temperance question. Oh, that every town in the county would authoritatively give notice that all candidates for office must come out Hit footed oa the side of temperance and be able to prove themselves such on all occasions in order to be supported for office. It is only three months since Waynetown vigorously remonstrated against the granting of license to a saloon keeper and came out victorious. They are now having the same fight again, and the Dispatch says the indications are that Waynetown will be without a sa'oon at least three months more, then, according to the law, it will be remonstrated again Ob, the fallacy and inBuffiency of such a law. It should be unlawful for any one to apply for license for at least a term of two years when any applicant has been defeated by a remonstrance Then it should be the would be saloonkeeper who should petition the legal signers for the required majority for the "privilege to ask a license. Instead the saloonkeeper haB the inside track and the temperance people are put on the defensive side of the question and have the work to do. Mr Nicholson, the author of the present temperance law, where art thou?

Now, what is the grip? Can it be avoided or prevented? And can it be cured? Grip is characterized by a continued fever, by a tendency to inflammation of the membranes of the digestive and often the respiratory tracts, by pain in the muscles, and by debility.
The grip in individual cases varies from a slight indieDOBition to severe forms with grave symptoms—these variations depending wholly upon the health, ate, temperance or nervous conditio of the person. Those predisposed to rheumatism
Buffer
great
pain in the muscle? persons of nervous temperament become low spirited, often have hysteria, and, if not closely watched, have been known to commit suicide. Several cases of this sort have been reported this month in the newspapers. Headache is a constant symptom. Tha bowels are generally constipated. Whatever form the dis ease takes there is invariably extreme prostration. The danger to persons in previous healthful condition iB slicrbt.
It has been absolutely proven that there is one certain preventive of serious cases of grip and that there is one remedy for persons Fuffering with it, or beginning to be convalescent from its attack.

The farmers aroucd Eimdale are decidedly opposed to having a free mail delivery to come from Round Hill to Eimdale and then go back on the Attica road to Crawfordsville just to benefit a few on the Attica road who can get their mail every day by the hack line. It is not right nor just to do away with the hack line so all of the farmers around Eimdale will have to change their mail to Waynetown or Wingate and go four or five miles to get it when they now have it right at home. We are not in favor of it at all unless they arrange the free delivery BO that all the mail that comes here now will continue to come. Uncle Sam is able to pay our postmaster for handling the rest of the mall here.

BE CURED OF GRIP!
The Wonderful Results Obtained In the Case of Supt. Davidson.
I
of this remedy have never known so great a call for it—baa been due to its use by thousands of people for whom it has been prescribed by intelligent physicians, to restore the patient's vitality, to purify the blood of the enervating poison, to restore the nervous system to healthy action and to strengthen the vital organs.
A person will continue to suffer from the evil effects of grip for many months unless he attacks the disease by getting rid of the unnatural, unhealthy poisons in the system, supplying the body with new blood, arousing the healthful action of the kidneys, liver and digestive organs, and nourishing and upbuilding the overexerted and debilitated nervous system. All this and just this Paine's celery compound will do. In the multitude of cases where it has been used it has never failed.
A case well known in Chicago is cited Mr. Frank E Davidson, who is one of the most brilliant and beat known engineers in the world, had ju"t finished the plans for the creat intercepting sewer system of Chicago, which i* to divert the entire sewerage of the C'ty from Lake Michigan through the famous Chicago drainage canal and down the Mississippi. Superintendent Davidson had worked for months on this scheme. He was well nigh exhausted and toolr to his bed with an attack of the grip. After a

An Ounce of Preventative
Is worth a pound of cure. Try a bottle of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and, If properly taken, it will positively prevent rheumatism or any other kindred trouble arising from a torpid condition of the bowels, liver and kidneys. Trial sizes 10c, other sizes SOc and 81 at the O. E. Dnnn drug company, 117 north Washington street, next to Trade Palace, Crawfordsville, Ind.
while the disease not having left him, ho was advised to try Paine's celery compound. He was soon back at his office in the department of public works, a well man, and forthwith wrote a letter to the proprietor of the remedy, in which he says: "I had been told by friends of the wonderful results obtained by them from the use of Paine's celery compound. After my severe attack of the grip I determined to try It. I have al-/ ready found that my friends' reports were not at all exaggerated, and I wish to join mostcbeorfully with them in recommending the remedy to others."
Hundreds of grateful letters have been written to the proprietors of Paine's celery compound since the appearance of grip this year, telling of the perfect recoveries it has effected. The letters come from men and women of many conditions Few persons are so poor they cannot afford to have this great remedy constantly in the house, and none are 60 prosperous that for their health's sake they can afford to be without it. When so many men and women whose words carry the utmost weight in the i/nrnunitieB in which they live tnstlfv a» they do to the great benefit they have received from Paine's celery compound, there can be no hesitancy in trying it. A single trial is the test which is confidently invited.
