Rensselaer, Jasper County, Indiana, Friday, June 25, 1897-

Many newspapers are adopting various plans to meet the exigencies forced upon them by the hard times. Some conclude to try a reduction of the subscription price and hope to increase tne 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. Whtn urine stains linen it is positive evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. WHAT TO DO. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladderjand every part of the urinery passages. It con. rects 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 compel ed to get up many times during the night to urinal e. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swqmp-Root is soon rt alized It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you ueed r medicine you should have the best. Sold by druggists price fifty cents end one dollar. For a sample bottle and pamphlet, both sent free by mail, mention Democratic Sentinel and send your full post-office address to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.

WHISTLING REPUBLICANS. Mr. Wanamaker says he does not believe in whistling while the tram is off the trad . We commend the advice to the republican party in general. Poor John Wanamakei. He is a good-hearted sympathetic man, and for making a few remarks on the line of a charitable and sympathetic nature, almost the entire res publican party, including President McKi ley and innumerable editors of the same faith, are snapping at his heels. He evidently takes no stock m this bogus prosperity that seems to be dazzling Secretary Gage and other republicans. What did Mr. Wanamaker say? He simply repeated in somewhat different language some of the re > marks that he made at a banquet given by prominent business men last April, On the more recent occasion he said, among other things, the following:

Much as I love quietness and peace, it is not possible for me to be indifferent or silent in the press ent condition of affairs. Neither can I give or take opiates. In these times campaign speeches are only shells without kernels. However well meaning or whoever it’is wh thinks he does good by them must be forgetting that 1,000,000 workmen and their children are hungry. The man who looks for bread in such speech es will not have much to eat. The public heart cannot be fired by els oquence m this way just now, for the powder of patriotism is wet with the tears of the suffering unemployed. Give me hold of some body’s hand who will do something, not talk,about ii month after month To k'fiiep work tor the six thousand and more persons iu my employ and turn awav from the several hundred who apply daily and beg for the piivilegeof labor to keep the wolf from the door, drives me into a fever, and I must speak out. Any citizen; has thatrigh.. I cannot sit on a fence with a stiff wind blowing and whistle for prosperity, the vanished bird of beautiful plumage, to come back. She has been gone five long years He might have added that “the vanished I ird of beautiiul plumage” had been preening and pluming for the flight more than five years ago. She was in full flight and feather during Harrison’s ad. ministration. Almost a quarter of a century ago the beautiful plum age had been clipped by republic can legislation and the poor old bird wa* stripped to pin feathers. Prosperity prophets “fco'ed” the people during the last campaign and Wanamaker was among the number. R ad now what some of the New York prophets recorded during the last days of the campaign : WAITING FOR BRYAN’S DEFEAT. A big furnace to start up when news comes of McKinley’s election —N. Y. Sun, Oct. 31, 1896.

MONEY NOW HOARDED. Millions of dollars will be in. vested in ue v enterprises if ‘sound money’ wins.—New York World, Oct. 27, 1896. MILLS TO OPEN. The manufacturers have been fofr the better part of a year utterly unable to make contracts, owing to the lack of confidence in business generally, but many of them have expressed their decided opinion that a republican victory will cause mills to be opened and give them that prosperity for which they have waited so long.—New York Press, Nov. 2, 1896. The World bolted the regular democratic nominae ana strayed away after the golden calf and other fake and allming political gods, but it has repented somewhat and is anxious to get back into the home pasture. The Press always was a radical lepublican paper and follows the

The Sun is a piratical craft flying the democratic flag one day in the week to six for McKinley and the more insolent of the various trusts and combinations.

The loregoing quotations are but samples of scores and hundreds of similar ones. Mr. Wanamaker being a level-headed business man has discovered the hollowness of the propheies and re fuses to go any farther in deluding the people. The following letter published in the Denver Post, accentuates

Wanamiker’s position: Philadelphia, June 4,1897. Mr. W. B. Chapman, 1643 l Champa st., Denver, Ool.; Dear Sir-Answering and thanking you for your letter that came in my absence, I beg to say that the newspaper clipping which you inclosed states the facts. 1 am now as always, an intense republican, but do not believe that whistling while theftrain is off the track will put it on again. Yours very truly, John Wanamaker.

“Whistling while the train is off the track” is WAat Mr. Gage and some other republicans are doing at present. The worst feature of the entire situation is that the administration and its advisers seem totally incapable of putting the train on the track again. - A boy at Harley Shields’, Monday. Mrs. Win.

Under the Nicholson law all the saloons at Goodland have been remonstrated out of existence, and their friends are lamenting that the town is “going backward,” “losing trad j,” etc. The Goodland Herald pionounces such talk the “thinnest kind of rot” and says: “If Goodland’s business prosperity and prestige as a town depends upon the sale of liquor it is a good time to kill the town and start it again on different and better lines.” The idea that saloons are necessary to a town’s progress is rapidly becoming obsolete.

Ex-Governor Matthews came to Indianapolis from his Vermillion county farm yesterday, jays Wednesday’s Indianapolis News. He will stay here two or three days, and will meet a few of his political friends. In talking of the political gossip that has been current recently he said: “Since my retirement from the offije of Governor, 1 have been so occupied with my personal affairs, which I was compelled to neglect to a great extent during the past four years that I have had little time to devote to politics, and certainly no time for personal interest. I see the papers are indulging in speculations concerning the senatorial question, and a supposed contest between Senator Turpie and mvself. Of this co' 1 test I know nothing, and I am not accountably for the rumors and stories so freely published. Senator Tutpie and I are the best of friends, and he ; s a friend at all times - loyal and true. Ido not know what his expectations or intensions for the future may be. if he desires a re-election, he has good grounds upon whit h ro base his claims.— He has been a faithful and loyal Senator to the people of Indiana, and to fay there is not a member of the Senate surpassing him in pointof ability or usefulness. No Senator is accorded a more earnest hearing when he addressee that body. Eearl ess and positive, you always know where to find him. “There will be no clashing of interests betweon the Senator and myself, and he will have no warmer friend in all his circle of friends. Should he conclude to retire at the expiration of his present term, and not become a candidate, then it will be in order seriously to considei his successor.”

Every young woman who is contemplating a business career sho’d read “Practical Hints to Young Women in Business,” published in “Our Girls” Department of Demorest’s Magazine for July.

RHEUMATISM Is caused by Uric Acid and other impurities lingering in the blood, which have not been filtered out by the Kidneys through the urine. The seat of the trouble is not in the skin or muscles. It’s sick Kidneys. Electricity, liniments or plasters will not reach the case. But the disease can be CURED I have been a cripple with rheumatism for many, m ny years, and suffered during that time untold agony, at times the pains being unbearable. Not only did I have rheumatism, but physicians said I had Bright’s disease; I know I had awful pains in my back, and my kidneys bothered me terribly. A short time ago I got some of Dr. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills and th?ught I would try them and see if they were any good. To my surprise my i rheumatism has disappeared anu my kidneys have ceased to pain me any more. It must be your Spar gus Kidney Pills that have fixed me in such good shape, for I „m now a comparatively well man. Your Pills are all riuht. Geo. Shxtmway, Elkhart. Ind« HOBBS Sparagus Kidney Pills.
