It is recommended that no proxies be

Walt. M. Seeley, Chairman.
Secretary.
Philadelphia, has reduced her saloons
sixty per rent this spring and on last
Monday the judges comprising the license
court refused three hundred and fourteen
applications. This ns a good showing
for so large a city and we hope the good
work will go on.
The government has made its annual
payment of interest It has paid out this
week nearly $7,500,000 interest to bond
holders. The money will now be dis
tributed through the money circles all
over the United States, and it is hop 3d
it will relievo the stringency in the money
market.
The Pinkerton trial and Senator Van
Wyck's meeting seem to have opened up
the bottled spirit of anarchy which has
been smoldering in the breast of our
Journal man. Labor is his hobby. Hen-
Most and 1 1 err Sherman are kindred
spirits on this subject and can speak of
those who hold views differing with
theirs only with blasphemy 'and black
guardism. "Once a railroad lawyer
always a railroad lawyer" is the screed
of the Journal man. If a lawyer ac
cents a fee from a railroad he is forever
lost and will always be looked upon with
Mispicion by the Herr Most of the Jour
nal. Dishonesty is a thing the Journal
cannot stand J A lawyer who consents
to serve a corporation as its counsel and
legal adviser bears the mark of Cain on
his brow and may consider himself so
cilly and poli'ically ostracised and
damned by the Journal man. A man
may be a dead beat in a community, re
fuse to pay his debts, run his business at
the expense of his creditors, and support
himself and family by such questionable
methods, and howl for the laboring man
and be all right; yet,- if he pays his debts
honestly supports himself, and practices
his honorable profession as the legal
adviser of a corporation he is a scoundrel
and a thief. TVe add to the quotation
from Senator VanWyck another truism,
"once a dead beat always a dead beat."
CANADIAN POSTAL TREATY.
The reports submitted to the senate
.with regard to the Canadian postal
treaty show very plainly that a serious
wrong hfs been done to the American
people by the present administration
under the pretext of facilitating inter
course with another nation. In the first
place, there was no positive authority
for the negotiation of such a treaty,
without the concurrent action of the
Fcnafe; and -in the second place, the
terms of the treaty are directly in the
interest of Canada at the expense of this
county. The rate of postage on seeds
and bulbs in the United States is four
times as large as that which prevails in
Canada; aLd by the provisions of this
singular document, such products can be
scut into our markets at the Canadian
rate, while our own dealers are required
to pay the highest domestic rate. This
implies not only a ruinous form of for
eign competition as to seeds and bulbs
of every kind, but it also means the
turning over of from $2,000,000 to $3,
000,000 per aununi of postal revenue to
the Canadian government. Already,
American seedsmen have begun to trans
fer their business to Canada in order to
escape this inviduaus distinction; and
our post "offiee department claims the
right to prevent them from thus evading
the effect of the treaty by searching the
muls for packages which they may send
from Canada and charging up the Amer
ican rate of postage thereon.
It is impossible to understand why
such an advantage should have been
given to the Canadians. If it was done
purposely it was contrary to all sound
notions of public duty and discretion;
and if it was done inadvertently it was a
piece of unpardonable ignorance and
carelessness. And yet it has been prac
tically indorsed and commended by tre
democratic majority of the house of rep
resentatives. A resolution calling upon
the postmaster general for information
concerning the operation of the treaty,
with n view to bringing about a change
where a change is so clearly de
sirable, was voted down in that
body on Thuesday, after having been
adversely reported by the post office com
inittee. The chairman of said committee,
Mr. Blount, declared the treaty to be a
just and proper one, and maintained that
the postmaster general had a perfect right
of espionage over the mails from Canada
for the purpose cf defeating the use of
such mails by American seedsmen, and
of collecting 16c postage where Canada
charges only 4c. He added that he had
no objection to the house receiving the in
formation asked for in the pending reso
lution, but that the request was made in
disrespectful language. Thereupon, Mr.
Peters asked leave to amend the resolu
tion by striking out so much of it as was
said to bo offensive, but he was refused
permission to do so, and the resolution
was tabled by a vote of 125 to 122. As
the matter now stands, therefore, the
democratic majority of the house may be
said to have ratified and confirmed the
proposition that American citizens may
fairly be prohibited from using the Unit
cd States mails on the same terms as Ca
nadian citizens who are competing with
them in business. Such action is not to
be wondered at, however, when the fact
is. considered that tho whole economic
policy of the democratic party is so adjust
ed as to favor foreign interests and dis
courage home labor and enterprise.

"uidn't Know It Was Loaded."
The young man fell dead !
A friend bad pointed a revolver at him
''He didn't know it was loaded!"
We often hear it stated that a man is
not responsible for what he does not
know. The law presupposes knowledge
and therefore convicts the man who ex
cuses crime by ignorance!
"If I piad only known"J has often
been an unfortunate man's apology for
some evil unknowingly wrought, but in
a matter of general interest as for in
stance that laudanum is a poison, that
naphtha is a deadly explosive, that
blood heavily charged with a winter's
accumulations of the waste of the sys
tem, I, is one's duty to know the fact
and the conseqences thereof. Our good
old grandmothers knew for instance,
that the opening of spring was the most
perilous period of the year.
Why ?
Because then the blood stream is slug
gish and chilled by the cold weather, and
if not thinned a good deal and made to
flow quickly and healthfully through the
arteries and yeins, it is impossible to have
good vigor the rest of the yer. Hence,
without exception, what is now known
as Warner's Log Cabin Sarsaparilla, was
plentifully made and religiously gi ren to
every member of the family regularly
March, April, May and June. It is a
matter ot record that this prudential.
preventative and restorative custom sav
ed many a fit of sickness, prolonged life
and happiness to f" Timorous old age, and
did away with heavy medical expendi
tures. Mrs. Maggie Kerchwal Lexiugton, Ky.,
used Warner's Log Cabin Sarsaparilla
"for nervous sick headache of which I
had been a sufferer for years." Capt.
Hugh Harkins, 1114 S. 15th St., Phila
delphia, Pa., says "it purified my blood
and removed the blotches from my skin."
Mrs. Aarea Smith. Topton, Berks Co.,
Pa., says she "was entirely cured of a
skin disease of The worst kind," by Log
Cabin Sarsaparilla. Bad skin indicates
a very bad condition of the blood.
If you would live and be well, go to
your druggist today and get Warner's
Log Cabin Sarsaparilla and take no oth
er. there's nothing like it or so good,
and completely renovate your impared
system with this simple, old-fashioned
preparation of roots and herbs.
Warner, who makes the famous Safe
Cure, puts it up, and that is a guarantee
of excellence all over the known world
Take it yourself and give it to the other
members of the family, including the
children, lou will be astonished at its
health-giving and life-prolonging pow
ers. We say this editorially because we
have heard good things of it everywhere,
and its name is a guarantee that it is first
