The Greeks have labored
under two disadvantages which
were heavy enough to defeat
any soldiers however valiant.
These were insufficient food
and cowardly incompetent
leaders. No man can fight well
on an empty stomach and no
arm j' can figbt when their gen
eral is screaming with terror
and constantly sounding a re
treat.
Tub necessity ibr increased
pay for the members of the leg
islature becomes more and more
apparent every year. To offset
the increase In price a reduction
n the number of members
would be necessarj'. And that
iswhat the state should de
"maud. It is a disgrace to the
el ate to have its servants so
poorly paid. -There is certainly
great necessity for reform in
the legislative department of
the state government.
'That colored politician who
was satisfied with a ten dollar
bill from the president's purse
instead of the foreign mis
sion be sought is a philos
opher. He is willing to take
what he can get. The wisdom
of the president however in
thus appeasing a place seeker
is not so apparent. He has
established a precedent which
will soon swatnp him financially
unless he has an unlimited ex
chequer to draw on.

ubrionsly over the extreme high
"tariff which the republicans
propose to enact. The Galves
ton NewsT which worked with
all its miglrt for "sound money"
and McKinleyr is one of these
bowlers. The News sees its
mistake and lrankly declares
that if fhe purchasing power of
our dollars is to be reduced as
Dingley's high tariff must cause
hen it wpre bettt-r to have had
it reduced by free coinage than
by rai&ing the price of the ne-
cessities of life and at the same
lime licensing the millionaire
manufacturer to increase his mil
lions at the expense of the peo
pie. It is to be hoped that thn
3Sew.s as well as the democrats
who were mislead by its exam
pie may profit by this lesson
and learn to- distinguish the
Tight and the wronj of political
platiorms.

EA!BT DISEASE of long standing 13
not easily cured but it is cukable.
Elder Wa Tennison writes: "I was
afflicted for thirty-five years with "heart dis-
ease in lact troubled with it nearly all my
life; I think it heredi
tary as my father was
afflicted with it. I have
suffered great distress
my heart palpitated to
such an extent as to
shake my whole body.
So distressing was it I
jtxrald only with great
est difficulty compose myself to slexsp. About
two years ago I began taking Dr. Miles
Heart Cure. The first bottle gavo toe no
perceptible benefit but afrer taking the
third I began to feel much relief and I con-
tinued for some months. I have good rea-
son to believe the cure is permanent.
