If General Grant still lived, in the full possession of his faculties, he could not express himself upon the great question of the da more strongly and pointedly than he did in his second inaugural address, March 4, 1873. "I do not," he said, 'share in the apprehension held by many as to the danger of govern ments becoming weakened and de stroyed by reason of their extension of territory. Commerce, education and rapid transit of thought and matter by telegraph and steam have changed all this. Rather, I believe that our Great Maker is preparing the world in bis own good way to be come one nation, speaking one lang uage, and when armies and navies will no longer be required." The question of expansion at that time in its immediate practical bear ing was of comparatively trivial mo ment. It is related to a small island in the "West Indies which Denmark was willing to sell to this country. At that lime the country at large took no interest in the subject. The United States has had twenty four presidents, and with the one ex ception of Grover Cleveland not one of them all ever opposed the exten sion of our national territory, and no fewer than fourteen .of them left records in support of the expansion policy. In one way or another each one of the fourteen declared by deed or word what General Grant so well expres&ed in the words quoted above. Salein Statesman. SENATORIAL ELECTIONS. No one is blind to the evils of the existing plan of electing United States senators, says the Spokesman Review. The system is known to be corrupting, disturbing, demoralizing. Legislative sessions are thrown into a fever of excitement, members are bribed with money and the spoils of office, legislation is neglected or enacted without due consideration, and log-rolling combinations are made under which worthy measures may be defeated and vicious bills en acted.. Yet the system goes on, and it is feared it will continue, because it suits some powerful interests. The rich man of political ambition likes it, because it affords him a chance to buy a seat in the senate. It suits the political boss, who knows he could not be elected by direct vote at the hustings. And it is dear to the great corporate interests and trusts of the country: ' These interests are well intrenched. They want only to be "let alone." They can thriye amaz ingly under the laws established, and they want no changes. The senate as now constituted is their strong hold. The people can not get at them. A voice more vehement than the present feeble outcry will be required to break up the existing system. There must be long agitation, and some day a great , uprising at the ballot box, before the election of United States senators will be passed over to the people. No Right to Ugliness. The woman who is lovely in face, form and temper will always have friends, bat one who would be attractive must keep her health. If she is weak, sickly and all ran down, she will be nervous and irritable. If she has constipation or kidney tronble, her impure blood will cause pimples, blotches, skin eruptions and a wretched complexion. Electric Bitters is the best medicine in the world to regulate the stomach, liver and kid neys and to purify the . blood. It gives strong nerves,- bright eyes, smooth, yelvety skin, rich complexion..
