Kntrerl at tha IlHrrlson pout office as wcouil clued matter. A happy New every body. Year to The Chestnut National batik of Phila delphia was struck with a severe stroke of prosperity last week. The old year, like some fit our pros perity hanks will close it .doors to the world Friday evening. KirtZ, chairman of the Ohio, republi can state cohtral cotnmitte, declares that Senator Ilanna will bedcfeated fort-lection to succeed himself in the lcyisla lature which conveue in that state Jan. Cth. Booth Tucker, commander of the sal vation army in tlia United States, left New York city on the 23th inst with a cilony of Salvationists for Monte ray, ('!., where they have secured several hundred acres to muke their future homes on. The report that secretary Gage of the treasury was alxut to resign, has been denied by the assistant secretary of 1 tie treasury, Mr. Vanderhp;he also makes the statement that the views of the president and Mr. Gaga exactly agree on the (fnancial policy. 3STO 17. China stands a good show of being divided up among the different nations of Europe. On December 24th the Chicago Collis eum that immenence structure, which was twice as large as the Madison square 'garden building of New York became it total ruin. The fire ignited, and , ru over in about one half hoar. It was the quickest ever witnessed in Chicago (which by tt way) is noted fof her rapid ity every thing. At leat ten persons ure rousing and the injured wili number about tweftty-five. According to a statement made in 'the New York World of the 23ed inst, 92,000 people in New York City alone are without visible means of sunport during the wioter, and those figures may be augmented by forty or fifty thousand more by next spring. If this is true and we do not doubt it, where is that wave of prosperity that was to strike thio country, soon as McKinlcy was in aufjarated on the 4t!) of bit March If editor Rjsevvater, of the Omaha Boe, and Jude Ksvsor, could read the comments made by tho editors of the coiotry press and how they feel in re eard to injunction processes as a last re sort to siUnce free speech and the press as printed from day to day in daily and Sunday World-Herald they would con elude at once that tho people and es pecially country newspapers which re presents the sentiment of the country are opposed to disreputable methods uaod by certain kinds of politicians, trust companies and monopolies in order to gratify some motive that could not be attained in a fair and honorable way. But such acts as government by ioj unction which the gold standard people are resorting to in their last day's of rule and ruin, is opening the eyes of the great mass of the people and Wore another four years has passed away the party represented by such nscn as Judge Keysor and E. Bosewater of the Bee. will have been numbered wrth the dead past for, beholeold tilings will have past away and all tilings will become new. Only two week's ago 23,000 cottc-n operatives of Fall Itiver, Mass., had their wages cut 10 per cent. Now, on tho 2AUj inst the Manchester (N. Hampshire) mills have declared a 10 per cent, cut in tbe wages of its operatives effecting 20,00 hands. Also at Sun Cook, N. II. , 10 per cent cut of wages has been declar edaffecting 1500 hands at that point; And at PawtucketU. I., the Koyal Weaving Company have shutdown their mills because the weavers would not stAQd a cut in wages of 15 xr cent It is id by the managers of the several Companies, the cause for cut in wages ant. shutdown wan over production. Yet, tbeDingley tariff law is intended to stimulate production, A little more Boston went democratic last Tuesday by 2,300. MeKinley's majority in No vember, lS'JC was 18024. Should tho ex-captain general wyler of Cuba plan an expedition again.' t the United States and carry it into effect this country will be safe so long as cap tain Levering lives. He would soon d.e patch the bloody Wyler. Another huge Octopus in the form of a coal trust has been formed to control the coal nies of Illinoies, Ohio, Indiana the Virginia's and Pennsylvania, which will absorb $14,000,000 from the people and turn it into the coffers of J. Pier point Morgan & Co. This man Morgan controls 40,000 miles of railroad in the United States, and not content with that lie b now turning his attention to getting hold of the natural resources and public utilities of the country besides he has his hand on the finance of the nation. What are the people thinking about? f corporations, trusts, and monopolies continue in the future as they have been in the past two years, what will the next four tiring fourth. On the 30th inst senator Chandler pub lished or nither, permitted a personal letter to lw published warning tho administration and congress that gold monometallism would defeat the re publican party ki 1898 and also, in 1900 if the Fresid.mt and secretary Gage's financial policy was persisted in longer. Then follows senator Walcot's protest threatening to resign his seat in the Senate if the president was determined to ignore bi-metallism, and asist Wall st., corporations and trusts to the ex clusion of all other interests .and the people of the west and south. Will tluso man bo denominated cranks and anarchists by their constituents? No we do not believe they will, because iu our opinion these men, though they have given the administration the bene fit of every doubt they, now have arriv ed at the point where the two way's part, and are justiiied in standing for the interests of the masses the wealth produciajf, who are the laboring . class and which represents H't per cent of the population of the nation. Bi-metallism s coming as sure as the sun rises and ets. Commissioners Prom-dlngs.

E. O. Wolcot of Colorado, have finally come to the conclusion, since president McKinley s first annual message to congress, on the first of December, en dorsing and recommending secretary Gage's prepared bill to congress to re form of the monetary system, that tho president is either trying to ride two hors es at once or, he is only trying to de ceive them by still further fastening the single gold standard onto tho people of the United States, and assist the natio nal banks to get control of the finance of the nation. There is no doubt in our mind but that the Honorable gentlemen here mentioned have all along been honest in their support of president Mc Kinley, because, as they thought he would b honest, and use every means in his power to bring about international bimetallism. But they find out the president has wholly ignored bi-metal-lisrn, going so far as to endorse tho res olutions passed by the Indiannriolis convention on the 12th of last January, which he recommended to congress in a special message last August, and then the first of this month in his annaul message to congress when, pretty near the same principle was embodied in the form of a bill by the secretary of the treasury and recommended to con gress by Mr. McKinley, for their earnest consideration. Forbearance has ceased to be a virtue any longer with these men who have had represented to them since the election, that the ultimate end of president McKinley's administration would bring about international bi metallism.

When urine stains linen it is evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the back, is also convincing proof that the kidneys a,nd blader are out of order. What To Do. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that lr.
