In Alabama the legislature is to
meet only once in four years under
the new constitution. Evidently Al­
abama believes with Thomas Jetfer
son that a state is best governed
when governed least.
Spain, at the close of her late war,
talked freely about punishing the
officers of her army and navy for
getting licked.
But the Spanish
senate has recently rejected a motion
to inquire into the responsibility for
the disasters to Spain in the war
with the United States. So far al)
who have tackled Uncle Sam have
bad the same experience, and Spain
is willing to let it go at that.
The wheat crop of Russia is darn
aged seriously beyond any doubt. A
similar report comes from most of
the other European wheal producing
countries. The yield of this country
for 1901 is larger than ever before,
and a heavy export demand is cer­
tain. The shortage of the corn crop
caused by the drouth, will bo partial
iy made up by the increase of the
wheat yield above the averages of
the past few years.
A literary genius has discovered
that Edgar Allen Poe did not write
his famous poem “The Raven,” but
stole it through translation of a
poem of one Kai Yi, a Chinaman who
lived about 1000 B. C. It is possible
that Poe was guilty of plagiarism,
and again it is possible that all this
ki yi about the Chinese poet will
come to naught. A year ago the
Chinese were claiming the honor of
being the original discoverers of
America, but they failed to establish
title. We have given them credit for
the discovery of gunpowder, and now
they are flaring up at short intervals
and trying to lay' claim to the earth.
They will surely contest the title to
the north pole when it is discovered,
and if some enterprising yankee
should discover the hx'ation of the
bottomless pit, up would jump some
C'hiuamau and declare he had lived
there for years.
Another chapter in the farce of
trying to collect the bond of (leo. W.
Davis, the defaulting clerk of the
state school land board was opened
at Salem last week when Ex State
Treasurer Metschan, who is one of
the bondsmen, went up to Salem to
be served with a summons in Marion
county. It is noticeable, however,
that be did not present himself to
the sheriff until after the expiration
of six years siuee the defaulting
clerk went out of office. The papers
were sworn to and ready for service
on June 29th, but the bondsmen
were evidently not ready then to
walk up to Salem
to accom­
modate the officials, since the suit
was not commenced in the county
of their residence.
The new battleship Maine,launched
some weeks since, will soon be
completed at a cost of $3,000,000.
The ki.l of this first class battleship
was laid in Philadelphia on Wednes­
day, I’eb. 15 1899, in the shipyard
of the builders who constructed the
second-class battleship Maine, which
was sunk- in Havana harbor just one
year before. Thus the completion
of the new Maine will bear the sig
niflcance of an epoch-making date of
two centuries, which dates will be
personified in a great man-of-war
which will keep ever in the minds of
the American people the course of
events which led to the war of 1898.
Foritwasthe Maine which roused
the American people from the ig­
noble coma of the Virginius period
and diverted their minds for the time
being from the atrocities of Spanish
rule in Cuba and the cry of the un­
fortunate Cubans struggling under
the yoke of barbarism, and centered
their thoughts on the more recent
acts of treachery toward a friendly
nation. It was the Maine which
closed all sectional chasms in this
country, and it was the Maine which
fused and welded the American peo
pie into an indivisible whole. It
was the Maine which concentrated
on the government at Washington
such a fury of popular wrath, resent­
ment and vengeance that no presi­
dent, no cabinet and no congress
could withstand it. The old Maine,
or rather its unfortunate destruction,
has raised tbe nation from the rank
of a third-rate power to a place
among the foremost nations of the
earth, and it was the Maine that
made us a new, a better and a strong­
er people. If the new Maine shall
accomplish as much during the next1
half a century as her famous pr roto-
type has during the past three and
one half years, the deplorable his-
lorie episode in Havana harbor will
indeed be more far-reaching in I its
effect than was ever dreamed by the
traitor who fired the explosive on
that fatal night.

NEAT,
Is within the reach of almost every
woman. The weakne<< nervousness
and irritability from which so many
women suffer is in general due to dis­
ease of the delicate womanly organism.
When the disease is cured the general
health is re-established.
Doctor Pierce’s Favorite Prescription
makes weak women strong and sick
women well. It promotes regularity,
dries disagreeable and enfeebling drains,
heals inflammation and ulceration and
cures female weakness. When these
diseases are cured, headache, backache,
nervousness and weakness are cured also.
"I was very weak and nervous when I com
menced taking Dr Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip
tion and Golden Medical Discovery ’ about a
ye.tr ago,” writes Mrs M. E Everetts, of 89
Oxford Street, Woodstock Ont. ”1 had been
sutF ring for seven long months, and had taken
xnediciue from a physician all the time, but it
bcemed to make me feel much worse. My
stomach was so bad (so my doctor told me), and
my nerves were in such a state that I would
start at the least noise. I felt irritable at all
times ; was not able to do any of my own house
work had to keep help all the time. How I
suffered God and inyself alone know I was
greatly discouraged when I commenced taking
your medicines, but the first bottle seemed to
help me. I took five bottles of ‘ Favorite Pre
scription, two of ‘ Golden Medical Discovery,'
also two vials of Dr. Pierce’# Pleasant Pellets.
I can highly recommend these medicines to all
who uffer as I did. I never had better health
than I now enjoy, and it is all owing to Dr
Pierce’s medicines.”

wires are being strung, and we will soon

ways the case in a public utility enter­

no little trouble in determining tbe
position of the city lights satisfactorily.
Two or three arrangements were decid­

raised, rearrangements were made un­
til the plau finally adopted seems to give
very general satisfaction. It is that there
