Fear has been entertained in certain circles that in a- tariff war between Germany and the United States the latter might come off second best. What we purchase of Germany can be more readily secured elsewhere fcy us than one would suppose. In this respect Germany would not fare so w II as us, as is set forth in the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, one of the best edited pa pers in the country, as follows: -. Of our exports to Germany in 1904 $35,000,000 was raw cotton, which must be had in this coun try if it is had at all, for the out side supplyis small. 1 he United States furnishes three-quarters of the world's cotton crop. Lard copper, mineral oils, corn and wheat are among the other im portant articles that we sell to Germany. In all of these we are the world's largest producers. Any tariff restrictions by Ger many that would shut any con siderable proportion of those things out would be a serious in jury to the German people. When" the matter is presented squarely to Germany, as it will be by those pronouncements of the Secretary of the Treasury, she will see that a tariff war would hit her far harder than it would us. This is an issue which the country will be ready to face. If those menaces against us on the other side of the Atlantic should materialize Congress in the ex tra session in October would have work on its hands of more press ing importance than railway rate regulation or any other question which has recently been discuss- oy me people. . i i THE INVESTIGATION. The Bennington disaster shock ing as it was and fraught with horrible and wholesale loss of life, may in the end result in a ' measure of good not that any thing can compensate for the lives lost, however. It is report ed that only one officer was do- ing engineering duty at the time of the disaster, and he was an ensign of little experience." He had been assigned to the work less than six months previous. This reveals a bad condition in naval circles. The Bennington so far as machinists and engin eers wentwas undermanned. .Nor is this all, she was officered by in competent men, even to the point .of criminality. There should have been two or three warrant machinists on the Bennington; that there was not is proof of the above statement. There is some party to blame for this awful disaster, but whether the ' congress ' !that changed the law regulating na val matters or the-naval -de partment are matters yet to te made clear. Take The Gazette for all the local news." ' Public Is Aronssd. The public is aroused to 'a knowledge of the curative merits of that great medicinal ionic, Electric Bitters, for sick stomach, liver and kidnevs. Mary H. Walters, of 546 St. Clair "Ave., Col umbia, O., writes: '-For several months 1 was given up to die. I had fever and ;itgue, my nerves were a wreck.; I could ' not sleep and my stomach was so weak from useless doctors' drugs that I could .not eat. ; Soon after beginning to take Electric-, Bitters, I obtained relief and in short time I was entirely cured."

For nerhaDs the first tim f.i honored a native poet by buileing a replica of his birthplace several thousand miles trom the original. This has been accomplished at the Lewis and Claik Exposition by tbe state of Maine which has for its building a structure that is an- exact reproduction of the place where Henry Wa-isworth Lonyfel.ow was born. .The build ing has attracted a gieat deal of aitrnUO!.', especially ftom Wcs!- ern t emple, mo-t of whom have never vsite! fqvttai.d, Me., to see for t eni-t ivts thevoiiin..l. Tlit: j,;.ous,- m - which L rgf 1 low w.- bui t was, tit the time1, the fiaestiu Portland, Maine. It was the home of Sitnuel Stephen son, " a brolhirr-in law of Hon. Stephen Longfs -13. w, tbe poet's father. . : Longfellow's bhthplace is a three-story frame building, con structed alter the peculiar style of architecture characteristic of the period. It is severely rectangu lar in shape, with a hip roof, and the 'only decoration is a small cornice over the doorway which is in the center of the front wall. The house is painted white, and a white picket fence encloses a small grass plot at the left of the entrance. The rootnjn which the pott was born :s the front cham ber, in the second" story to the right. - On entering the building, one climbs several steps and is admitted to a hall, from which stairs lead to. the floor above The living rooms are large and comfortable, and open off to the right and left of the central hall The birth room has been fitted up in colonial style, with some rare old furniture, notable among which is the bookcase that was formerly owned by the poet. The location which the repro ductjon of Longfellow's birth place emoys at the Lewis and Clark Exposition is much more desirablethan that of the origin al in Portland, Me. A century ago," 'it overlooked the placid wa ters of Cascoe Bay, and the view embraced the 365 islands which make the harbor one of rare nat ural beauty; ; Now, however, wholesale houses and- warehouses occupy the water" front, arid the surroundings are anything but romantic At the Exposition, the repro duction : occupiea a plot of ground i'n'ltbe rear of the.Idaho and Illinois state buildings, and the vista from the doorway in cludes a view of the main expo sition picture, and takes in Guild's Lake, smiling and dotted with pleasure craft, and the foothills of the Cascade mountains beyond it. A green lawn surrounds the building, -n . .' y. " :.

The latest publication to seek public favor is the Oregon Mutu al. It is published at McMinn ville,' Or., in the interest of the Oregon Fire Reliel Association. In the course of the salatatory the following occurs : . ' The object of , this publication is to encourage cooperative effort in all lines of .work.1 The finan cial world realizes the impor tan ce of combination and concentration of forces, and it is through the application of this principle that capital has succeeded in makijg itself more than . a " match fur what should be its superior la bor. -t ; '.. .

So long as cap ital has an undue advantage, it will impose on labor. Let labor stand, on an equal footing with capital, and the two will be mutu ally htlpiul. - . Believing, that an extension of the pri?iciple and practice of co operation will do more to place our producers on an equality with capitalists, the Mutual wjll nse all proper means to encourage co operative -eiiterprires.

Mrs. A. T. Jones, of 928 Hayes Street, San Francisco. Cal., writes : "As a child I was delicate, and great care was taken of me because some of my relatives had died of consumption, although my father and mother were healthy. I grew up with only the or dinary diseases of all children, but about two years ago I contracted a severe cold, which would not yield to such home-treatment as was handy. Doctors were tried, but after three months of this treatment I was only worse. Then I was advised to try Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and am glad to say that three bottles not only cored me of the cold and cough, but made me feel better than I ever had before. I will always have a bottle of this medicine In the house." Ypwrfa These tiny, sugar-coated antl- bilious grannies regulate and . KeWeVa Invigorate Stomach, TJver and Bowels.
