A SHOW TRULY MORAL

“The Great John Robinson and Franklin Bro .’ Enormous Shows combined" are announced to appear at Rensselaer in all their vast entirety, on Monday, July 26th, and for one day only, giving two complete performances, afternoon and evening.— All of our exchanges speak int e highest terms of this great amusement enterprise, and the many “tough hangers-on” which are so frequently found with large shows, are made conspicuous by their absence.— There is not a game of chance of any kind permit ed on or around the grounds. All the attaches are gentlemen, and there is not a loud or profane word spoken. It is a wonderful sight to see the wonderful “horseless carriage” in trial tests of speed at every performance and in the great doubleiparade. The three ringa and elevated stages are all going at one time, w-th entirely different acts Per< ormers picked from the best the world affords, and there is more than four score of them, whose combined salaries would more than equal twice ovei the entire expense of the every day circus. The daily free street parade io One ma is of glittering magnificence, containing “sc.nes from all nations” numerous open dens of rare wild beasts, twelve kinds of music, herds of elephants and the finest imported horses ever seen with a tented amusement enterprise. The coming of this, the world’s biggest amusement, is cause for a "regal" holiday in every city it visits, and h is worth coming a day’s travel to see.

There are about 800 points of difference between the senate tariff b 11. nd that passed by the house. ■ —a The house conferees are stand* ing solidly for their tariff bill, and he senate conferees are equally tenacious of theirs. Republican senators have been exceedingly generous toward the trusts in the construction of the pending tariff bill. They get about all they want. Miners have been informed by the operators that if they attend any meeting to consider and discuss the situation, or if found in consultation with any of the labor leaders they vould be instantly discharged.

Philip Schreiber entered the hospital, at St. Louis, Thursday of last week, and complained of his ankle hurting him as the result of wearing a tight shoe It was dis covared that an abscess had foim* ed Lockjaw followed, and he died. —w M —I - . Wo suggest to our neighbors of be ‘Republican’ and ‘Journal’ that 'or the emplayes of the trusts and and combines to “srrike’’ at this time, when McKinley and congress are just about ready to put in operation a bill gotten up solely for heir “protection" (?) is an act of unpardonable ingratitude I

Our neighbor of the Republica 11 is already apologizing for the anticipated failure of the new tariff bill to “meet the running expenses of the Government.” He says: “With a year’ssupjKv of foreign wool and several month’s supply of other foreign goods in the warehouses, it is not expected tqat the new tariff law will ueet the running expenses of the Government.” Should the bill become a law and go into operation it will prove a failure as a revenue producer.— The outcome if “protective” duties is always a large decrease in im*» ports, and a heavy falling off in revenue.

Republican senators offered an amendment to the tariff bill proposing to pay ajquarterof a cent a pound bounty on American beet sugar produced during the five years following the enactment of the law, and would have promptly passed it but for the threat of Chairman Jones of the Democratic National Committee and his col leagues.in the senate that the interest of the sugar trust in the proposition would be investigated and exposed. Cha.rman Jones and his colleagues in the senate, are entitled to the thanks of the masses, if not the classes, for heading off this gigantic scheme of robbery

The Indiana coal miners make a very piteous appeal to Governor Mount for assistance in their effort tosecuie living wages. In their appeal they say: “We have bht little more than half-time worn, or au average of about three days per week. This condition along with low prices for digging, has reduced us to poverty. Our condition is pitiat le., viewed from a numane and moral standpoint. We, with hope born only of despair, have labored on and on, thinking our condition would certainly come before the public and action taken to better our condition, but alas, our condition and misery is little understood by the public, and if understood, it so far has been powerless to do us any immediate good. “It is true we are out on a strike, as it is called by some, but it is nothing short of a struggle for bresd. Nature brought ns i-to this world. Circumstances made us to be miners, and necessity compels us to live, butwhei?, m the name of our Creator, are we to get sustenance when our bodies demand more food thanjcan be g.-tten by our labor under a miserly wage scale. ‘ As we said before, we are out cn a strike and are fully aware that perhaps we have not the sympathy of some citizens, but if such is I true it is because they do not understand our starving wage scale.” The construction of the tunnel under Harrison street, from the co<fcrt house to 'the jail yard, has been commenced.

Two young men, Heiferline and Pullins, hau quite a bad runaway in this city last Wednesday eves ning.

Pullins succeeded in staying in the buggy, and got the horse stopped wiihout any further damage. 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 hnen 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 Hwamp Boot, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in relieving pain in tho back, kidneys, liver, bladderfand ever’ 1 part of the urinery passages. It orre6ts inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effect following use of liquor wino or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being coms pel ed to get up many times during the night to uriuaie. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon nalized It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing oases. If you ueed r medicine you should have the best. Sold by druggists price fifty cents end one dollar.

They affect many persons after they reach the age of 40, and are usually accompanied by a decay of vital power. They can be CURED I received the sample box of Dr. Hobbs * Sparagus Kid: ey Pills.
