Many newspapirs are adopting various plans to meet ths exigencies forced upon them by the hard times. Some conclude to try a reduction of the subscription price and hope to increase the number of subscribers; others announce that they will throw off 50 cents ter annum to delinquents who will square up arrearages. We do not think either of these plans will pay. With wheat stating at 50 @ 60, oats 10 @ 12, corn 15 @ 16 producers find it next to impossible to make their income meet their ne« cessities. We have concluded, tor a time at least, to meet the emergency, in reducing our necessary cash outlay each week by reducing the size of the Sentinel, and the price to $1: and so soon as we may feel justified in doing so will restore the paper to its former dimensions.
HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottle or common glass with urine and let it stand twenty four hours; a sediment or settling indicates a diseased condition of 'he kidneys. Whui urine stains 'men it is positive evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or paiu in tbe back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of ordei.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in tbe knowledge so ofteu expressed, that Dr Kilmer’s Hwamn Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish iu relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bl add errand e*>ry part of the urinery passages. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effect following use of liquor wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being corns pel ed to get up many times tjuring the mght to urina'e. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon rtalized It stands the hignest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need r medicine you should have the best. Sold by druggists price fifty cents end one dollar. For a sample bottle and pamphlet, both 83nt free by iuai.. mention Democratic Sentinel and send your full post- >ffic? address to Ur. Kilmer & Co., Biughamton, N. Y. The proprietor of this paper uarante s the genuineness of this offer. An exchange says that every p per m the state should publish tbe fact that burnt corn is good for hog cholera. It was first discov ered by the burning of a pile of corn belongi' gto a distillery It was thrown to tbe hogs and eaten by them. Before that a number of them had been dving every day from cholera, but the disease immedia'ely disappeared. It is so simple a remedy that it can easily be tried.

The New Dog Law.— The Indianapolis Journal says: There hfts been a vast amount of agitation throughout the St .te ' over the new dog law passed by the last Legisla.ure, requiring the township assessors to collect a dollar for each dog diacovere.i. If thec>wnerof the dog does not pay, envbody s privileged to kill the brute on sight The tax commissioner and | the rfficers of the auditor and attorney : general have been showered with inquiries about the new law and its operation, most i of the inquiries coming from the township ssessors who begin their work of j assessment on April 1. In view ol this . general anxiety the tax co missioners ; yeste day asked an opinion of t le attor- | ney general as to when the new law goes into effect, and be replied that so far as it relates tothejdnties or township assessors it cannot become effective until the assessment is made next year. This is because the assessment is made on April 1, 'and the new lawldoes not go into effect until the session acts are published and proclaimed, which will be about April 20.

At the Ellis Opera House.
Manager Ellis should be given a vote of thanks by the theatre going people of Rensse aer for the treat lie has given them this week. What a rare pleasure it is for those of artistic tastes to he afforded an opportunity occasionally of witneshing a display of real iah nt, we may say, almost genius. The Garrick Theatre Company, which has been holding forth at tb Opera House all this week, is indeed a superb organization. Jt has been our privilege to see few companies, in Roip'selaer, that eou d approach the Garricks in point of excellence. The ordinary company that visits us will perhaps have two, or possiby three creditable artists, but with the Gairicks there is not one of the members who is not above mediocrity, and all bear the stamp of metropolitan training. 11 is so seldom that we see artists of this class in our little city that we were curious to know the reasons of the management for playing tbese smaller ci'ies,and securing an interview with Messrs. Lando&Kempton the question was ask.-d. “Well, you see,” replied Mr. Kempton, “tliis has been a very hard season for our business, and we have found that the hard times . ffect the cities more than the country. The fore part of the season we were playing the laigei cities, bu 4 oar proGtsdid not compensate us for our investment or ou labor, and we decided to try the smaller places where wa could draw from the country people We. ha,ve done very well sin e adopting tlbs plan, and it is possible we v ill go through some ot the same territory next season.”
The repertoire of the company is a varied one and calculated to please all classes of theatre-goers. Perhaps the mostfiniehed produc tion will be given this evening, when Dumas’ celebrated soociety drama “Camille,” will be presented. To say that Miss Carr, who assumes the title role, is clever, does not half express it. She is truly a remarkable youug actress. Mr. Lando m&kes an admirable Armand, and in fact the entire cast gives her splendid supportIt is to be hoped, the citizen? of Rensselaer will have anothei op portunitv of seeing the Garricks next season. The Sentinel ex [tends to them it? hearty good will.

Those who have tried it are loud in their praise of this method of protection. It is certainly cheap and easy. A Truth 1 1 l ainly Stated.— The trut h is plainly -tated by Harper’s Weekly when it s .ys that “it is not an inorease of re enne that the country needs so much us economy. Mr. McKinley, iudoed, touched upon the necessity for eoonomy, but it was in a gingerly anddtshourtening man - ner. He should have pointed out 4 o reckless extravagance that marked t e closing hours of the Senate’s session—extravagance to whioh the Home was so unwillinp to asssnt that Congress adjourned leaving the deficiency bill in con- *■ re .oe, while Mr. C'evelaud refused to sign rh. jo other bills, including the sundry civil bill. ”
Tbe democrats in the United States senate should do all in their power to prevent the anaotment of a taritf designed to give additional protection to manufacturers and the promotion of trusts. The present tarifl affords ample prot> otiou to manufacturing interests. The presont tariff would provide ample rev.nue it the government were eoonomioallv admin! iterod. Congress coulu lop off at least $7'i,000,000 of expenses wl bout ’njuiing the public servico. It would be better to do this than to increase the annual burdens of the people to that extent. T rill tinkering bus become a polite method of stealing fr>m the people. High tariff’ laws are enacted qv a system of log rolling in whioh one prote<-tod interest helps another to rob and plunder Tho protected manufacturers of Ne» England and Pennsylvania join with the sugar plant ers of Louissano and (he wool growers of the west in holding up the Amerioun con - sumers, No tolerance should be given such schemes of plunder.—Loganspoit Pharos-
Cleveland's Tkkasuby Lkdacy.— M<. H. G.

When Pres dent Cleveland rttireain Ma ch. 1889, tliere-was a balance in the treasuiy of $165,574,678. Prom this should be deduct! d $82,577,250 held for the redemption of national bank notes, $180,249 in minor ooins. $24,715,021 in subsidiary silver coin, leaving a net ava lable balance of $48,090,148. Whon Mr. Cleveland went back into ofli e in 1898 he found a delieit of $9,641,808. Xho Harrison administration had not onlv exhausted all the large surplus left by President Clevelaud bat had run $9,041,808 behind and had piled up obligations t nllit g for many millions moro President Cleveland at the end of four years left another available net balance of $72,630,916.

Martin Boldly Talks.
GRAND JURORS MUST DO THEIR DUTY OR BE DISCHARG D. Special to The Indianapolis News Bloomington, Ind., March 24. A sensation has been aroused by Jndgo W. ii. Martin, of the Teuth Judicial Circuit, in bis charge to the giand jnjy of this county m which he gave -peciul instructions to look after gambling, perjury anil kindled evils. He gave tho grand jnroisto understand that ni less such matters wer invest! uted thoroughly he would discharge them, and that he bud been informed that they would not find indictments. It had been said to tbe disgrace of Monroe county that a gr nd jury could not be impnneltd nnlesß there were two on it who wo’d obstruct the progress of justice. In closiug, Judge Martin said: “Let me beg of yon not to pa-s by the crimes of the rich ami influential to visit pundhmeut on som,- poor d vil for some minor otleusc. If then must be a difference, le. lu* difference be iu favor of the poor devil. Let me bog of you, don’t return into court an indictment, ugainat the poor, miserable harlot ami et go nnwhippedof justice the rioh rue and libertine who makes tier cal ling possible I have spoken warmly, gentlemen; this isyouroounty, uot mine; I am only an ofilovr,) ou are iulorested in the administration of your criminal InwH throughout the oounty.— F r a long time Monroe county has needed a cleaning up. I have !>e»n told you won't do it, hot I believe yon will Your action will detormiue whether yon have six honest men among you.” It Is a welt known tael thft* there has been an unusual amount us corruption and law violaiions escaping justice, uud this determination of Judge Maitin to look after themoralitv of ths city is being coinmouuod on all sides ami ip oroutiug no tittle comment. It is oil that liquor luw violations as oopneoted with the drug stores, will receive special at - tentioq,'»nd so national dove’ppments are expected before the adjjunftueut of the grand jury. It is encouraging to good cvtlzeus when Judges of the stamp of thp gent nmau above alluded to presides over their Judicial Circuit. It will prove gratifying to tho people of this city to know tl at Judge Martin is a Rensselaer pr'duot—a brother of iBo lute Dr. Robert Y. M r In —will no donbt be remnmbtiodby many of.our clti/.ons, Ii the example Judge Martin has set should spread and be oltowed throughout the other* Circuits, ho will be entitled to tho gratitude of every lover of law and order residing within the bounds of the htuteof Indiana. “Weeing tne Elepnaut” at tbe Opera House, Friday, the 9th.
j he Wamp MgKinley.— President McKinley in his mek-Hge urging tua passage of i higher tariff law by intimation pi mes responsibility for tho upon t o Cleveland administration. Ho calls attention tot' ebond issue and remarks thut “uot only are we without a surplus i-«« treusury.bat we have an increased nek.Ones debt with do rea ing receipts, Preßidout McKinley knows’ that those bond issues were rendered nooessary by the extravagances and mismanagement of the Harrison adminisirntion, nnd he probably knows that there is at present an nvaiiabl& not i a lance of more than $72,<100,011(1 He conveniently ignores both faits, tho hotter to suit his pnrpot eof forcing his peculiar economic policy upon the country. Ho, ul so, ho i mores the fact that the present revenue would be ample were it uot for the eaping ou of indebtedness by the last Congress. The message plea for a protective tariff is evi euoe that McKinley in 1807 is the sume Huperfloiul studentof political eoonomy that be was when h i drafted the act of 1800, with its amazing absurdities and gross inequalities.
Col. Copeland; the King of the platform, at the Opera House, Friday, the 91 b. •> A Cii ancl Foil Economy.— Tue appropriation bills which failed to become laws during tho last session of Com ress because they did not receive executive approval have bsen reintroduced iu the Ho. se. One of these bills is the sundry oivil bill, wkiob nppropr .toil some $50,000,000, and is the chosen depository of the jobbing legislation of tho session The other s the general deiioionoy bill, which appropriated some $10,000,000, whioh is also a nest for jobs. These billß must be taken up by tho extra session as now mutter. As the appropriations contained in them cover the whole range of government policies, ospeci illy of a domestic character, the ex ra session will have plenty < f business before it i.side from the turiff. It will require committees to do this work, Home of the most hotly coutested nppropr utions are included iu these bills that failed, and others were defeated whioh will again be brought forward. President (.'level,mil's refusal to allow them to become laws was because of his knowledge of the indefensible charaot. r .if so no of the awpropriations. In considering tiu se l ills the new Gongress will have an opportunity of showing what weight President McKinley's professions of economy carry with them
