It is perhaps fortunate for the 1:01111 try that the power of declaring war is vested 111 congress, and not in the yel low journals, which have since the blowing up iiuil (li'Mroyiug of the bat tleship Maine anil two hundred anil tifty Americans, in the harbi.r of Hav ana, been busily engaged in iullatniiig the public mind ami adding to lint ex isting excitement by publishing .sensa tional manufactured stories for the purpose of showing that tlio terrible calamity was thu result of foul play on the part of Spaniards, ami demanding nil sorts of rediculous things from this government, ami not least of which was mi immediate declaration of war against Spain, i'hey attack and villlfy the administration in every issue be cause it lias assumed that the c.vplo 81011 was accidental, until it is other wise proven. There is :i gruvo sus picion that there was foul play con nected with the blowing up of the Maine, but there is no proof. Thu only way that proof can bu had is by uu investigation. Ami an investiga tion by naval olllcers lias been provid ed for. It is claimed by the ad 111 in is tration tlmt it has made public every telegram received or sunt since thu llrst news of the sinking of the Maine was received, ami that it intends to continue this open policy, and there is not n scrap of evidence showing this claim to bu uutruo. That congress, which is on the ground, lias faith in thu manner in which the execi.tivu branch of the government is handling this delicate ami trying case was shown by the in inner in which Sena tor Mason's resolution, providing for a congressional investigation was re ceived. Senator Allen was thu only man who publicly endorse il the idea. That the president is alertly guarding our rights is shown by his refusal to al low the Spanish authorities at Havana to takr part in the investigation to bo conducted by our naval ollieers; he says ho desires the findings to be such as will ciUTA conviction to our people, and consequently would not allow for eigners to nave anything t do with it. The .situation is critical enough with out adding seii-nli Mini lies. It may rc Mill in war. If 6ml plav is shown it eeitainly will. Tnerejoro all good cit izens should j in in trying to keep down excitement until the truth is known. It has always been the proud boast of Aineiicnii.s that in the lace of finci'ii coiup ication.s pailisanship was foi goi ten and evny Anieiican stood shoulder to .-boulder in support of the goM'tiimeiit, and the jellow journal.-, wlije.i have no higher nii.ssion than in creasing tlo-ir eiieulatiou and making iiiiiio, should not In allowed to eh ingo that condition now. A question thai may eventually grow to national proportions is wheth er il would be p-oper or advisable for congress to reguiaio the hours of labor in all lliu states. Hepresentalivo Lov ermg of Massachusetts is the author of a joint resolution, proposing auamcud- meui 10 wiu u. o. cuusimiiiou, nilllinr- izing coiiigruss to icgulatu the hours of lain labor in the states, this resolution i oeioru 1110 iiouso juiucinry commune, which has been hearing arguments for and against it. Thu cotton null, of the south, against which the resolution is aimed, or rather against the long liouta worked 111 iiiuiu, which 11 i claimed lias enabled them to drive the New England mills out of many prollt able market.-, sent a large delegation of iolluential men to protest against t lit resolution. KepresentaMvcs Lov ering ami Walker of Massachusetts, spoke for the resolutions as did the representative of the Xuw England mill operatives. Canada's attention lias been called 1Y thi government to the Injustice of a number ol regtila'ious it lias adopt ed governing entrance to the Klondike country hi U. S. eitizns, ami abroga tion of some of them has beuu politely asked for. It is expected that Canada will grant tlii- request, but if it doesn't its own oili.tMis will be m.ide to Miller, us congress is fully dctot mined to ul;e a hand if ill jlotiuey fail- to obtain jml and fair treatment to our citizens who intend going to the Klondike.

C D ItOI'.IMON, Count) Treasurer. Of the Me. Mr. Lincoln Kelson, of Marshficlil, Mo., writes: "For six years I have been h sufferer from a scrofulous affection ol the glands of my neck, and nil efforts of physicians in Washington, D. C, Springfield, 111., and St. Louis failed to reduce the enlargement. After six months' constant treatment here, my physician urged me to submit to a re moval of the gland. At this critical mo ment a friend recommended S.S.S., and laying aside a deep-rooted preju dice against all patent medicines, 1 be gan its use. Ilefore I had used one bot tle the enlargement began to disappear, and now it is entirely gone, though lam not through with my second bottle yet. Had I only used your S.S.S. long ago, I would have escaped years of misery and saved over Si.so." This experience is like that of all who suffer with deep-seated blood troubles. The doctors can do no good, and even their resorts to the knife prove cither fruitless or fatal.
