THE HtLT IN I MIGRATION.
According to the statements of
j the agents of ocean steamship
companies, the departures in the
steerage ncwadayss are almost as
{numerous as the anvals. These
people who ’alkof a population of
80,000,600 in the United States in
the census of 1900 are destined to
a grievous disappointment. For
sociological reasons that need be
here discussed the native popula
tion of this country, as that ot
France or England is likely to
increase very slowly, so that the
only respect of an accelerated
growth of population is in emi
gration from Europe. But the
Natives, who appear to control
Congress, have concluded that it

and perform other coarse labor
which in the evulution of industry
the natives and immigrants of otb
er races have abandoned for more

pursuits. The pas-age of Ihe

prebminary to new legislative de

HON ALLEN D. CANDLER.
The News many weeks ago spoke
of the fitness of Hon. Allen D,
Candler, now Secretary of State,
for the high offi ;e of governor.
We are pleased to notice that
he is considering the matter, in
response to the many demands
that hfe run. Secretary Candler is
not a candidate. He has never
sought public station. But he can
not ignore popular opinion, and
he has ask' d Lis friends to advise
him candidly whether he shall
make the race.
In his letter be has some ring
ing declarations which he says are
•‘his life-long and deeply-rooted
convictions. ”
“We must have not only reform
in our currency system, but we
must also have more economy and
lower taxes in both state and the
federal government. Our taxing
laws must bear equally on al 1 alike,
and our state tax rate must be
lowered. I am aware that the cur
rency question is not one for slate
settlement, yet it is a matter of

LI < the disease
" may be, Na-
t ure among
her great
' force of de-
tective reme
dies has one that will eventually hunt down
and arrest that particular disease.
Lung and bronchial diseases are among
the most baffling complaints which doctors
have to deal with; because it isn’t the lungs
or bronchial tubes alone which are affected,
but every corner of the system furnishes a
lurking place for these elusive maladies
They change and reappear and dodpe
about the system under numberless dis
guises. They are almost always compli
cated with liver or stomach troubles, nerv
ousness, neuralgia, or “general debility.”
The best detective remedy which Nature
has provided to search out and arrest these
perplexing ailments is Dr Pierce’s Golden
Medical Discovery. It lays an arresting
hand directly upon the poisonous, paralyz
ing elements hiding in the liver and diges
tive organs.
It gives the blood making glands power
to manufacture an abundant supply of pure,
red, highly vitalized blood which reinforces
the lungs with healthy tissue ; feeds the
nerve - centres with power, and builds up
solid muscular flesh and active energy.
Forweak lungs, spitting of blood, shortness
of breath, nasal catarrh, bronchitis, severe
coughs, asthma, and kindred affections, it
is a sovereign remedy. While it promptly
cures the severest cough it strengthens
the system and purifies the blood.
SCROFULA
It is Foul Blood’s Advertise
ment
But It is Soon Cured by Hood’r
Sarsaparilla.
Yes, Scrofula, if anything, may be called
the advertisement of foul blood. It ’ ■ the
■courge of the world—offensive, pa. ful,
debilitating, stubborn and well nigh
unendurable.
Outward applications do not cure, they
only drive the difficulty to new quarters.
Emollients may palliate, they cannot
abolish the evil. There Is but one sure
way out, and that is to eliminate the
taint from the blood.
There is one remedy that can effect thia,
and it is the only one that, ao far as we
know, has almost invariably succeeded
even where the system has been poisoned
by long years of taint, and the ravages to
be repaired are tremendous. That remedy
Is Hood’s Sarsaparilla. Read this:
“ My daughter was afflicted with im
pure blood. There were running sores
all over her body and they caused her
much suffering. Wc tried medicines that
were recommended as blood purifiers,
but could not see that they did any good.
A friend told me about Hood’s Sarsapa
rilla and I began giving the girl this med
icine. Tho result was that she was per
fectly cured after taking a few bottles.
She has had r.o symptoms of scrofula
sores since that time.” Marietta M.
Smith, South Middleboro, Mass.
Hood’s s pX
Is the best—in fact the One True Blood Purifier.
Insist upon Hood’s; take no substitute.

Dingley has one source of en
couragement regarding the pres
ent monthly deficit. His tariff bill
isn’t doing much to make ends
meet, but a revival in business
has given the people more money
to Fpepd fpr whisky and tobacco,
and the infernal revenue receipts
for November exceed the receipts
for November, 1896, by a million
and one-quarter. This increase of
internal revenue won’t go far to
wards bridging the deficit, which
has reachi d near’y fifty millions
and is still climbing, but a little
gain anywhere brings comfort in
the Dingley soul.
THE PENSION BCANDAL,
The Records of the War De
partment have most carefslly j re
served the record of every soldier
who enlisted in the United States
service for any period during our
civil war.
Os those who rendered service as
soldiers mustere I into the service
of the United States, the records
show that there are 727,122 now
living.
The r.cords also shew that there
are now 733,527 drawing pensions
as surviving soldiers, wl o were
mustered into the service and serv
ed during the war.
In addition to the number of
surviving soldiers who are drawing
pensions, there are applications
pendingin the Pension Office from
IS 7,500 persons claiming to be
surviving veterans who rendered
service during the war.
Thus we have 6,405 more pen
sioners on the roll to-day than
there are actual servivors of the
soldiers who rendered service
during the war, exclusive of wid
ows, parents and orphans, and in
addi'ion there are pending appli
cations for 187 500 who claim to
have rendeied actual military
services and demand pensions.
These figures are taken from the
official report of the Pension Com
missioner, and may be accepted as
reliable.

and 104,988 whose application as
widowi of soldier are pending in
the departmant.
In addition to the foregoing
there are 255.849 of the present
pensioners who have claims per.d
--i ing for an increase of the pensions
j thev now receive.
With only 727,122 actual surviv
ing eoldieri of the civil war, the
pensions now granted to all came
os of our pensioners, and those
demanding pensions, aggregated
the appalling number of 1,139,-
817, being mai y nr re than ever
wh»re in the Union army at any
time during the war.
Is it that the pension
scandal has become a s’ench in the |
I nostrils of every honest citizen?
I Does not every honest [enaiones
appreciate the fact that unless ■
there shall be a thor< ugh revision
of our whole pension system . 'here
must be serious danger of a iweep-,
ing revolution against pensions
that may strike far beyond tie,
line of justice?
THE PARTITION OF CHINA.
That the occupation of Kiao
Chou by the German forces is
the 4irst step in the partition of ■
the Chinese Empire by Germany'
and Russia is a fact which find as.
swift recognition in Peking ns
in London . Another fact as clear
ly demonstrated by the utterances
of the London press and by the
movements of the British fl-et in
the Far East is that England!
does not propose to l e an indiffer
ent witness of the game of who'e
sale spoliation but means to Be i.i
it op the ground floor.
When CLir.a advertised her
weakness io t'u world by per
mitting Japan t > whip her she in
vited the fate w'.ich now impends
and her statesmen are not to be
deceived by such soft words as
“protectorate,” and “temporary
occupation.” Os course the po'iey
of aggression will not be wantonly
asserted there will be outrages
on German subjects and the
British flag and ot er ample pre
texts for every fjrward move
ment. Considerations of expedi
ence may postpone the ceremony
of partition prefaced, of course,
by a great naval show on the part
of the allied fleets but China must
go, and her oblitergation from the
map of Asia may easly h? coin
cident with the dawn of the’ new
century.

Cheney’s Expectorant will in
