TSpeclul Correspondence.]Trenton, Mnrcli li.—Eigbt weeks ofle leglsluturu imvc pnsRcd, and theiBSion is now in full gallop. Had the.wmakers displayed the activity thatnow apparent a few weeks ago tue

rm woula not have lasted more thanmonth. The session is now at its

lusiest, howcer, and the end le InIght.The bouse on Monday night settled,

o far as it was concerned, the muchiscusBcd Pustmlc pollution question,here was a determined right on the

lart of the Pnteison men of the Pas-,ic delegntlon to prevent this bill from

jolng through, the clnim l>elng urgedthat the 1)111 will injure Poteisnn finan-cially and thp.t the residents of thatlection do not want a trunk Bewer, us

proposed in the bill. The delegationfrom Essex county, backed by the gov-irnor, will leave no stone untuyjied toiave the bill become a law, it belugirged that the trunk sewer plan is theinly feasible means to relieve Newarkmd the adjacent oountry from the IIIitfeetfl of the l'lissnic river, the cause

which is attributed to Paterson.'he bill i'all« fov the construction of a19,000,000 trunk sewer to carry theewage of the 1'asRnle vnllcy to New

ork bny.There Is very little heard just now

>n the matter of the appointment of a.tate prison supervinoi' to suceeedJHa-or B. J. Anileisoii, but there seems toie little likelihood that the governor'ill pursue nny other course when the

ime comes thnn to reappoint the pres>mt incumbent. Major Anderson is oneif the "old guard" as far as ofnccbold

ing 1B concerned. He Is seventy-twc.ears old, and nbout one-half of thattime has been spent in the service ofthe state. He began his career In of-ice with a position in the office of theitate adjutant general during the civil

war. From that he became an assist-ant in the state comptroller's office, inwhich capacity he. served for nineyears. He was then chosen state comp-troller and held that office for ten

ears. In 1894 he was made supervls-ir of the state prison and has held that

position ever since. As his term of of-fice does not expire until June, it Is.probable' that the governor will notmake the appointment until the eve ofdjournment.

A. to Appointment..The governor has yet to make two

ither important appointments, aboutn'lileli he seems to be taking his owntime. There is a rumor to the effecthat the executive would like to have

the position of chief of the bureau oflabor go to Winton O. Garrison, presi-dent of the Newark board of street andwater commissioners. The place is

w filled hy William Stahisbypf New-ark, whose term expires on April 4,The office is n live year one and pays$2,500. The governor is known to de-ilre to hare Mr. Garrison as a memberof his statehousc family and, as a po-litical and confidential adviser. It isnot known whether ill'. Garrison wouldicccpt the positlou.

The other appointment which thegovernor is holding up, if such it couldbe called, is that of a successor toBanking and Insurance CommissionerWilliam Bettle of Camden, whose termexpires on April 2. The reason for thedelay In this matter is due to the factthat the leaders have been unable to'get together" on a successor to Dis-

trict Attorney David O. Watkins ofGloucester, who is slated for the office.The governor wants to have his privatesecretary, John L. Swayze, named forMr. Watldcs' office, bat United StatesSenator Kean, who has the appoint-ment within his gift, is said to haveanother candidate in view. It Is prob-able that both of these appointmentswill be sent in next week.

A bill that seems to have fallen bythe wayside is that introduced by Assemblvman Low providing for a con-itttutlonnl amendment for an increase

of representation In the state senate.This bill was intended for the expressaccommodation of Hudson and Essex,counties. If the amendment were adopt-ed, it would give Hudson six senators,Bssex five, Fassalc two and each ofthe other counties one. By this schemethese three counties would have thir-teen votes, and the other combinedcounties would have a total of eighteenand In this way they would practicallytake full charge of the matter of legis-lation; but, as the judicial amendmentsate to go before the people next fa"and no uew amendments can be votecupon for five years, there Is no dangerof a change in the existing order ofthings for that period.

Date For Adjournment.There is much speculation as to tin

probable time of adjournment, and a'facts and figures point to Friday, March20, as the date that will be finally flxecOB the day of final adjournment. Thenwas some talk of hurrying the wortalong so as to get away by the 15th,and for a time it looked as though thilegislators would fix upon Friday,March IS, as the date for sine die ad-journment, but that would be Frlda;of next week, and, although it woulibe possible for the lawmakers to finlsl

I From our Regular Oorresi»naeDt.l

Washington, D. C , Maroh a, 180S.Senator Morean, of Alabama, has shown

band and bis determinntion to defeat thetiflcation of tbe Panama Canal treaty.

Wben pressed, to a recent executive session,permit a date to be set for a vote on the

ireaty, Mr. Morgan flew into a rage. Afterbe had refused to permit a vote on any dayluring tbe remainder of the leenlon, Senatorlullom charged the Alabama Senator with

talking against time with the purpose of de-feating the treaty. "That is as false asbough It bad come from the moutb of an imp

hell," shouted Mr. Morgan. "I do nottake orders from the Senator from Illinois.Wben I want somebody to act aa my captain

will get a man with more mental calibreand broader mind," oontlnued tbe enraged

*, to the amatement of blfl colleagues.'. Cullom permitted tbe Alabamian to

pend bis wrath with remarkabls oomposareand then declared that those charged with

itng tbe treaty succeed proposed that rati-oatlon follow. If the Senator from Ala-

bama talked the treaty to death this sessionbe would have an opportunity to attempt aipetltlon of ni> tactics la aa extra seeslon.r. Morgan's attltade is regarded as render-

ing an extra seesloo of the Senate inevitabletut Senator Callom assures your oorrespon-lent that the Panama Canal and tbe Oobanmattes will be ratified if it beoomes neces-

•y to "hold the Senate in extra sessionmtUJuly.''

Tbe Democrats In the Senate preparedemaelves for a long fllfbnster with a viewforolag a vote on the Llttlefield anti trust

ill!, but tbe Republican managers promptlydefeated their purpose by calling for a vote

Senator Blackburn's motion to considerbe Ltttlefield bUl and defeating it 28 to 88.inator Aldrlch, speaking of the action of

:l» party said, " It waa so obviously ludicrousattempt to consider go important and far-

reaching a measure u the Llttlefield bill Inoloaing hours of the session that the Re-

lubllcans had no fear that tbe judgment ofbe people would not sustain them." The.3emocrat» appreciated that tbe consideration

the bill would be impossible, but soughti means of embarrassing tbe Republicans

and of making* what they believed wouldconstitute campaign material.

Democratic, members of the Houee havabeld a cancua and resolved to obstruct every

until adjournment. To meet thisIllbuster the House will, it Is expected, belompelled to remafa la oontlauoaa sesiioii

untU the 4th of March, snbstltutlnf daily'recesses" tor adjournment. Tbne trerj ae-Ion of the House hereafter will be "aa on

tbe legislative day of February D6." The oc-casion of tbe Democratic wrath was tbeunseating of Representative Butler, of Mis-souri, In favor of Representative Wagoner ofthe same dlstrlot, extensive frauds havingbeen found in the election returns.

Practioally all the Important appropriationbills are now out of theway and then it noooeaaion to antloipate an extra aaaalon of the

itlre Congress, although an extra session ofie Senate is expected.President Roosevelt has sent to the Senateforcible message appealing to that body to

pass the Philippine tariff bill already passediy tbe House. Tbe President quotes a longtblegram from Governor Taft setting forth

the necessity of affording this assistance totbe Philippine industries. A careful oanvaasof the Senate reveals tbe fact that a majoritywould be glad to Bupport tbe bill if given anopportunity to vote for it, but Senators Tal-ler and Patterson, both Democrats, fromColorado, declare tbelr intention to talk tbemeasure to death. These gentlemen a nafraid that at some future time the Philippinesonar Industry may attain proportions whichwill enable it to compete with their sugarproducing constituent! and thus rob them ofsome of the benefits of the Dlngley tarlflschedules

Tbe President and his Secretary of thaNavy am deeply concerned over the actionof tbe Senate In amending the Naval appro-priation bill to provide for 12,000 ton battle-ships and 9,100 ton cruisers, tha House bar-Inarautborized 16,000 ton battleships ana14,500 ton cruisers. On the same day thatthe Senate took this action the Naval Boardon Construction rendered a unanimous opla-lon to Secretary Moody that It would be"harmful retrogression to build battleshipsof less than 10,000 tons displacement and

, .cruisers of lean than 14,500 tons dVsDlacament."The Naval Board says that a change to thssmaller type of vessels will neosaaitate muchunnecwary expeuae and delay, as it willmean the changing of plans, patterns, etc.,and when th« ships are built they will fail togive satlafaction or add to the strength of toeNavy on lines commensurate with tbe expenseInvolved. The "President is thoroughly in-terested in the development of tbe Navy andla much disappointed at the action of tbeSenate committee.

President Roosevelt made a recent trip toNew York to participate In tbe celebration ofthe anniversary of John Wesley. Wblletherer he conferred with Borne of the leadersof his party and some moat interesting gossipIs coming to Washington as a result of thoseconferences. The President's friends say thatbe will be nominated for tbe presidency nextyear by the almost unanimous vote of thaconvention and that Senator Beveridge willoccupy tbe second place on the ticket. Theysay that it Is an ;<ge of young men and with aPresident forty-Ove 7 « n old and a ViesPresident but Mur Tears bis junior the spiritof the sge will be carried Into effect. It Isfurther stated that during the oamnaian Mr.Roo-evelt will remain in the White Houae.while Senator Bevcridge, who Is an orator ofrenown, will " stump " the west In the Interestof the ticket. Mr. Beveridge, according tothese reports, is very popular In the West andtbe President's popularity In that section iswell known, while his bold on New YorkState is continually growing stronger.

Tbe War Department authorities, workingunder the provisions of the Militia Reorgani-sation bill, have prepared a course In marks-manship with drill and Instruction thereonfor t ie militia and have designed certain In-signia to be awarded for pronolenoy In thisdirection. There will be seven oisBses, " ex-perts, sharpshooters and marksmen and 1st,2nd, 3rd and 4th classes."

SZWDAY SCHOOL LESSON.

" P a u l at EplieBUB »-ActB 1 8 : 1S1-2O-Rev. M. T. Shullord.

For three moDtbB fuIlow.Dg the baptism oftfao Christians tbat Paul found in EpheHiiswhen he came to that city, Faul preached inthe Jewish synagogue. But this coula nutlast lopg, for his teaching conceruiog JesusCbrlot wiu Burt> U» uiuLu Li uubl« tmiuug tl>«Jews wherever he went. Wtien active oppo-sition broke out against bis preacbinp, Paulseparated his converts or disciples from tbeother Jews and began a still more aggressivegospel campaign In " tbe school of ooe Tyran-DUB." Here he did not confine bid meetingsto the Sabbath but taught every day iu tlieweek for two years. It would appear thathe did more ttmu conduct evangelistic mef-t-fnfts and build up a strong local church. Thindaily teaching in tbe school room loofes murelike a training school for Cbrlstlan workerswbo would go out from Epheaus to preach InthA anrroundlDg country. Ipdped, verso tendeclare^ that uucu WBB the cabts "ami thin von-United for a period of two years so that atlthey which dwelt in (the province of) Asiabeard tbe word of the L'ird, both Jews audGreeks."

la verses eleven and twelve we have tberecord of P&uVs ministry to Iba sink ami suf-fering. The marvelous power of Christ toheal tbe body did not disuppoar from tbechurch when He ascended into Heaven. Tbeapostles often received the gift of healing,and in this instance Paul seems to bavo beenespecially blessed in prayiug for the healingof the sick. It was these remarkal)\e maui-featattoQH of healing power tbat lad directlyto the remarkable events narrated iu tbislesson.

Certain Jews, wbo had seen evil spirits castout of people by tbe great apostle, con-cluded tbat they could profit by makinguse of tbe name of Jesus in their business.There were seven sons of a Jewish pritstthat were known as ** exorcists." That 1B,they pretended to beal the Bleb by lucantaUODI aod charms and magic. Like all tbemagicians of ancient times, they made greatuse of certain names that were supposed topowesfl great power when repeated by thisCUM of pretenders. These men noticed theate whlob Paul made of tbo name of Jesus,and not knowing the true spirit of prayer inwhich Paul used tbe name, they undertookto use tbe name of Jesus as a mera charm.Tbey wonld Bay to tbe evil spirits tbat pos-•eased tbe unfortunate lunatics on whomtbey were practlciDg, "We adjure you byJesus whom Paul preacheth." At last oneday they came into contact with a genuinereality in tbe shape of demoniacal possessionand their charms failed. Tbe demon an-swered them back, "Jesus I know, and Pu' gI know, but wbo are you V As tbgugh thendiscomfiture was not yet complete, tbe crezymm, in whom the evil Bpirit woe, leaped ontbem and tore tbe clothes off from them totbat these pretenders were obliged to fleeout of the house. Tnis ended tb lr unworthyattempt to use the name of Jesus In theirmiserable business. More than that, the eventhad • most remarkable effect on the peopleof EplciUB. The news Bpread aud fear felupon the people. They learned to respect thename of Jesus. Tbey came to believe in tbereality of Jesus Christ aod bfa name wasmagnified. His name was no longer a byword and a charm for fakirs. It took its trueplace in the minds of tbe people.

Converts multiplied. " Many that believedcame and confessed and shewed their deeds.Tbis open confession of their false lives amfalse claims concerning tbelr curJoua prac-tices proved tbe reality of tbeir repentance.A wjnderful bonfire celebrated tbe victorythat bad been won in the name of Jeaua. Thebooks teaching the secrets of tbe curious actthat so long bad held away In Ephesus, werebrought out and publicly burned, Tbe valueof the books tbos destroyed is variously es-timated, but probably reaco nearly ten tbousand dollars. Thus tbe sway of euperetltionand the influence of tbose who lit ed hy prey-ing upon the faith of tht-ir ni gbbors wasbroken in Ephesu* for a time at least.

It is remarkable bow willllng people havebeen in every age to be deceived by thosewbo make pretensions to knowledge of pecu-liar secrets atd claim to be la league with de-parted opiritv, etc , etc. Tbe witch doctoistill holds sway among tbe savages of heathencountries and is always the foe of the mis-sionary wbo goes to preach Christ and bringtrue wisdom to tbe people. Even in onr o»nenlightened land many still believe in "dlgns"and are full of strange superstitions. Tfaeclsif -oyants and spiritualists and mesmeristsw d hypnotists still find plenty of people willIng to patronize them and pour money intotbelr pockets. It even gets into religious or-ganisations and healinga at sacred shrines andby means of relics have not lost tbeir powerto draw certain peopte. Tbe trutb is simplythis. Nothing bu.£ genuine manifestations ofthe real power of J-eun CbriBt and Him cruci-fied will erer break tbe spell of superstitioneven among people of such education and re-finement tbat we are surprised and shockedto see them deceived. It Is an Inborn convic-tion that there ought to be Borne power tohelp the bnman race, which is really beyondour natural knowledge and beyond tbe reachof our ordinary powers. There Is Buch apower to belp Iu Jesus Cartel the Son of God.Power to save from sint power to help us hearoar trials and power to answer our prayers.He Is not only powerful but williogand hes'promised to belp and bless Bis childr*n.When we learn tbe power of prayer, win nwe show to tbe world a practical demonstra-tion of what Christ is to us, It convinces men•nd women today tbe same at it always d'd.But when our religion 1B ouly formal and ourlives are worldly and careless, and we are notexperiencing any particular operation of tbespirit of God In our hearts and lives, our t»tt-Imony and exhortation la powerless to aft. ctthe lives of those around us. fiuC genuli espiritual reality is as powerful to iu flu "neetbe world t> day as it ever was.

PASSilC POLLUTION BILL PASSED.

Ctmnnued from fi.nl page,•up tliplr work in time to s;ct awny Wtlmt (lute. It Is nnt llkply that tlH'y wilHimece'HSurily bestir themselves to nocompllsh tlmt. If the legislature oomrfito nil end 011 the 20tu, the sesxlou vlltlieu have lnutpil ten weeks. There isa 'possibility, of course, tbat the Bestwill ruu over into tbe eleventh-weekand that the final adjournment will nobe brought about until the 27th, bulthe,20th Is the most likely date at thepresent writing. Once the Paesalc pol-lution and the normal school bills areout of the way there will be nothingthat will provoke a fight and the wayto final adjournment will be open.-These two measures will probably comeup in the senate next week and willoccupy most of the time of that body,the two measuVes being strongly op*poeca by several ot the Bcnotors.

Assemblyman Oibbs of Camden hasIntroduced a bill that Is calculated tocreate a storm of Indignation and pro-test from tho oystermen of south Jer-sey. The purpose Is to permit oyster-men to use steam dredgers on the oys-ter beds, and it Is claimed tbat if thismeasure Is enacted It would throw8,000 men out of employment

The house has defeated the bill whichforbids expectorating In trolley orsteam cars. It was opposed on-thirdreading by Messrs. Boytf, StaKer andothers on the ground that it did not re-quire notices to be posted In the cars.'The vote was 20 to 81. "

Railroad Letfalatlom.There was another hearing on Tues-

day on the "three men In a cab" bill, atwhich tune the railroad lawyers statedtheir objections to the bill. It Is notbelieved tbat the railroads will comeout Into the open and vigorously fightthis measure. It has been sold thatthey were willing to have a bill passedproviding that tbe third or extra manIn the cab be a pilot and not an ex-perienced engineer, bnt it is still aquestion as to how much truth there lain this. It is scarcely necessary tostate that the railroads rarely do any-thing along this line where there to anexpense Involved unless they are com-pelled to by legislation. There seemrto bo a strong public sentiment in fa-vor of the "three men In a cab'i bill,and the legislators are apt to make abig mistake unless they give the peoplesome legislation that will render travrellng on the railroads safer tban* atpresent.

The suggestion for a railroad comemisBlon, for the creation of which thereare now two bills before the legisla-ture, has not met with any generaloutburst of public approval, and therenow seems to be little likelihoodthat either ot the commission bills be-fore the legislature will past; It Isheld that the railroads of New Jersey,as a rule, are well conducted and, fur-ther, that it would, be scarcely, possi-ble for the railroad commission, If ItIs created, to accomplish anythingagainst the Influence the railroadswield in politics. It is also pointedput that a railroad commission wouldnot be able to avert such a catastropheas the Weatfleld horror. Those Tbohave gone to any trouble to oppose thebills point out that it a railroad com-mission should be appointed Its mem-bers would have nothing more to dothan to ride about on the various rail-roads and have a fine time at tbe ex-pense ot the railroad companies andthat in short the commission wouldhave no better merit than to hold ont abrilliant prospect for a few politiciansout of work, who would be delighted toserve the state hi the capacity of rail-road commissioners.

There seems to be little prospect forthe'bill providing for the re-enactmentot the Dunn five counselor act,' whichwas introduced by Assemblyman Buckof Cumberland, who desires to belp thestruggling young law Btudent anxiousto find a quick way to enter tbe bar ofthe state without serving the fonryears In a lawyer's office now re-quired by law. Tbe Dunn act was re-pealed, as It was fonnd thai the law.made it too easy for unprincipled mento "become attorneys at law.

To Remember Her*.Senator Gebhardt has Introduced a

bill hi the senate authorizing the erec-tion of a suitable monument-to markthe burial place" of General Daniel'.Bray in the cemetery in the village ofUosemount, in.Huntenjon county. Itprovides for the-appointment of a com-mission and on appropriation of $5,000,General Bray was detailed by GeneralWashington to gather boatri to be tried,hi crossing the Delaware for the attackupon the Hessians at Trenton. Hegathered all the boats to be had along,the river from Port.-Turvls to Lambert-vttle and kept them secreted from theenemy in the neighborhood of Lambert-vllte until the night when they wenwanted. Under the greatest difficultieshe conducted them down to tbe point.of embarkation at -Washington Pros*Ing, while the river was full of Ice, «ndinsured the success of the attack planned. It is thought that such eminentservice should be perpetuated by amonument . ' - . : . - ..--.'

Mr. Strong, on behalf of the senatecommittee on revision of laws, has re-ported favorably senate bill 160, pro-riding for a ball and chain for tramps,which was passed on second reading-; i

There is a serious question as'towhether the ocean boulevard bill nowbefore the senate will pass at this ses-sion. The delay so far has resultedfrom a fear that even though the billwent through the two houses it wouldnot receive the executive signature.The bill has an amendment tacked onto it which gives each municipalitythrough which it passes police jurisdic-tion over the section within Its limits,and the municipality- is empoweredto close it on Sunday if It so.obooSes.This amendment was Inserted so as toovercome the objection of the OceanGrove people, who have always pre-viously "bucked"-the bill.* The consentof the Gamp Meeting association isnecessary before the proposed boule-vard could be constructed throughOcean Grove.

This is effectual for any-thing but. stains, which require lemonJuice. A little polishing powder maybe used once or twice a week, and alight rubbing, with the chamois polish-er every day gives the finishing touchto the manicuring. Too much polishingIs to be avoided, also the use of deeplytinted powders, for the artificial ap=_pearance thus produced is vulgar anddetrimental. If the nails be hard andbrittle, rub a little'vaseline, cold creamor almond oil on them at night Ifthey are delicate and tender, wax andalum will strengthen them. LemonJuice also strengthens the nails andwill arrest the growth of the scarfaklnupon them.

Tcaoh Y o u Dnwhtar <• Work.Any American girl Is possibly and

writer In a magadne, take a great dealof Interest ln~what Is known In thefamily as "the'solecism box." This Is asmall box into which any one maydrop a slip of paper recording an errorot speech that has come under his no-tice. These notes-are not made per-sonal at all, although at the weeklyopening of the' box some of us readilyrecognize and acknowledge our mis-takes: The fear of'being "put in thebox," I believe, makes oven the grown-ups a little more careful thani Weshould otherwise be.

The Important thing Is, get yourthoughts directed Into fresh channelsor in time you will find It difficult totalk or .think of anything except thehouae and the children.

TlieRoa company Btands ready to pny five percent, on all tbe gon Fold by it In Uockuway,and, inasmuch as tbe price fa to much lowerthau gaa fs Bold for in other larger towns, itwould Beem that i t would be R bargain thatRockaway might beexpectod to jump at. I tia uo secret from what Bource tbe oppositioncornea and Editor Collins' attempt to justifythe action of tbe borough authorities in thepremises will hardly avail. Both he and theowners of tbe Rock a way electric light plantshould take a leaf out of tbe lesson book ofDover.

(1). By sharing HIB mission.

This was tbe greatest honor tbatcould be bestowed, and tbe ambassador rep-resented China In Washington, in Berlin, InFarts and at Bt. Petersburg. What Ansond, Burlingame was to China, tbe minister torepresent that government in ita intercoursewith all the nations, the Christian is to tbeworld, God's Ambassador.

(2). God in Christ transfers glory to tbeChristian by suffering. He is made a partakerof tbe suffering and the glory tbat fa to fol-low.

(3). Christ's glory is given to His disciplesfa the victory over the trials of life and toevictory over death. Tbe teatimdnles of his-tory are full of illustrations of the power ota Christian faith in Ute and in death.

Trouble at tl ie Furnace.No. 2 Furnace at Wharton, whicb has beensulky" for tbe past five weeks, is work-

IDR somewhat bettor and it is thought tbattbe danger of a "ohlH'1 IB now past.

It Is somewhat difficult to explain tbetrouble in language not technical. Tbe bettergradM of Iron are made at a lower tempera-ture than the cheaper grades and ft was inmaking No. 1 iron tbat tba mass of ore waspartially obllled hy the cold blast, causing a:arch to form. Then .to prevent tbe ironfrom chllfioff, which would oece.«Itafe "tooblowing out of tbe furnace, It was npcefiaryto make every effort to remelt tbe tDxee ofIron which bad fallen to the fcrnrth of tbefurnaoe. Last week hundreds uf barrels ofoil were poured in and the heaviest blast wasput on. Great volumes of thick yellow smoke.Kiiud from the furnace and flames andfparki shot hundreds of feet Into the air, pre-iienting a truly fearful sight. Tbe heavyroaring of the extreme blast made it all themore demoniacal and masons whn were work-ing on tbe No 3 furnace fled from their workla terror, believing that an ei plosion wasabout to occur. When assured there was nodanger they returned to work.

To the Editor vf tha Iron Era:DKAB S I B :—Permit me tbe use of A small

space iu tbe column* of tbe E B A to make afew statements of interest to tbe taxpaysrs ofRandolph township. We nave had a reignof township committee for tbe past threeyears wbicb, to many of tbe taxpayers, Itwould be desirable to Lave closed forever.

Mr. Joho Coanoliy, ot MJus HU1, bait beena mBmber of that committee and now aabs tobe re-elected, that be may for another threeyeam give a similar exhibition of busioesst?/ability. What baa he done, or helped todo, tbat be Bhould have any claim to be re-elected t

When he and bis fellow committee mentook hold of the township affuira, there wasabout • 2,000 In tbe townsbip treasury. Tbecommittee immediately preceding Jlr. Con-nolly'a eoramittee.dannjL; their three yean ofmanagement, paid an Indebtedness of 11,000and accumulated a surplus of 12,00(1. Theroads were as well worked and all tbe town-ship business that needed tbe expenditure ofmoney W&B properly cared for. Mr. Con-nolJy and his committee bave used up tbe eur-

f lua and again put back in the bank a notenr 11,000. He baa helped reverse the whole

condition ot tbfttgfe Inthfs tbe way we wantthe township bualneeti cared for f What havewe bad for thin lavish scattering of the town-ohfp tunrfa 1 Poor r<«d«. and yearly gettingworse. Money spent Injudiciously and aKalnstthe protest of many of tbe inaanitaota of tbetownsbip. There baa not been any unusualdemand upon tbe funds of the townsbip andstill, during two year«, the committee werescarcely able to keep even.

The umallpox expense was doubled onlybecause the committee did not ute tbe samecare that men of good common senseuse in the management of their own affairs.There are very grave doubts if much of it wassmallpox at all. In thepayraentof these bills,tbe taxpayers asked to beheard, and the commJtteoeluded them by holding asecretBesslon.

They preferred, to take the doctor's dose,with eyes shut, at tbe expense of tba taxpay-ers. Mr. Connolly has not shown tbat busi-ness ability in tbe management of townshipaffaire that entitles him to the votes of thepeople, but, on the contrary* he has notlistened to the demand o r protest of manywho helped elect him three years ago. Letus have a change. Our township businesscannot be done In * more incompetent anduflbusineu like manner. Let tbt* election betattled upon busfneu principles.

Mr. Martin B. Carrel, tbe other candidate,1B known to poetess ability and tta^lnaenough to do what it right to all and. ifelected, be will illuminate tome of tbe deviousways of this committee. We hope tbat Mr.Counolly.and in due time, the other membersof this committee, the voters of Randolphtowosblp wiJl cover so deep witb tbelr ballotsthat their political resurrection will neveroccur. This is tbe view of,

THE CAMEL'S HEAD.•'Where the camel's head goes hia

body follows," says an Oriental proverb.It's the same way wiih disease. A smallopening' will give it an entrance andwhen aiseasc once has a place iu thebody a large number of ills may follow it.

The opening for diseaseit often found in a " weak"Stomach. When thestomach, is n weak" thebody also becomes weak-ened by lack ofnutrition, anddisease attacksthe heart, liver,lungs, kidneysand other organs.

Dr. Pierce'sGolden Medical Discov-ery makes the weakstomach strong. It curesdiseases of the stomachand other organs of di-gestion and imfn'tinn,and so enables the bodyto resist or throw off other diseases.

Men and women who are sick are in-vited to consult Dr. Pierce, by letter, /ire,and so obtain without charge the opiuionof a specialist on their ailments. All cor-respondence strictly confidential. Ad-dress Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.

"POP the past (wo years I have been a very•Jck woman.'1 writes Sirs. ClJesley. of 10S Wood-land Avc, Cleveland, Ohio. "I tried medicinesfrom doctors and to no avail. At last I deckledto try Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.When I Btarted I was all ruu-dowti mid had avery unpleasant taste in my mouth. Wachoked up, and at times it was very hard Tor unto breathe. I had severe headaches and cidtiiiLpains in my knee joint. Was so weak I couldnot attend to my work nor walk up or downstain without the assistance of my brother orsome friend. I am now tnkiiip the fourth boltle.and am happy to say I feel like myself agaiiI can go up and down stairs and perform mduties as welt as any one. Everything seems ibe brighter, and I can assure you that life i*worth living."

Accept no substitute for "Golden Med-ical Discovery." There is nothing justas good for dyspepsia or debility.

with no benefit, Two yean ago I went underan operation, and it left me in a very weakcondition. I had stomach trouble, backache,

When women are troubled with irregular or painful menstruation, weak-ness', lencorrhcBa, displacement or ulceratlon ol the womb, that bearing-downfeeling, iDflammatlon ot the ovaries, backache, flatulence, general debility,indigestion, and nervous prostration, they should remember there is one triedand true remedy.
