From our BegnUr Coimf entail. Col. C.J. Bonaparte, who has been nominally selected by secretary Hitchcock, actu ally bv the President, to in vestigate the, Indian land icandals, came to Washing ton recently to learn the ex tent of the tak he has under taken. To his great surprise Col Bonaparte found that Secretary Hitchcock h a d gone to bis summer home in New Hampshire, and his on ly assistant ,Secretary Ryan, who was absent during the entire ventilation of thesjan dais, was here to receive him. Judge Ryan, could, or would, give the Colonel but little information, nor did he have any papers relating to the case to submit to him. All these bad been carelully put away by the Secretary before be left Washington andjinstead of being able to take them np and discuss them with the Judge, the Co lonel was told that, after those the Secretary regarded as private or confidential had been shifted out. the re mainder would be shipped to him by express. Col. Bona parte asked many questions regarding the scandals and allegations, but beyond hav ing the fact impressed upon him that most of them were due to malfeasance on the part of subordinates of the Department of Justice, he re c e i v e d little, information. There is every indication that Col. Bonaparte is going to meet with the same oppose tion in his efforts'to conduct a thorough investigation, from the heads of the Depart ment ol the Interior , as did First Assistant 'Postmaster General Wynn and Fourth Assistant Bristow in the ear ly days of the Postoffice in vestigation from the Post master General. The circum stances in this case are some what different. Sec. Hitch cock is absolutely honest, but it is inconceivable tobim that anyone can doubt the acenracy of his judgment and he regards It as a . piece of impertinence for anjone to undertake to investigate those phases of the affair in to which be has already in quired, notwithstanding the fact that it is well known that his inquiries generally consisted of asking bis favor ite Indian inspector for the facts and believing implicitly what that inspector told him. Incidentally it may be temarked that this inspector is himself under charges and has beenexonorated only by bis own ipse dixit and the Secretary's imprimatur. The action of the labor un ion in Washingtou in appeal . FEARFUL ODDS AGAINST HIM, Bedridden, alone and destitute. Such, in brief was the condition of an old soldier by name of 1. 1. Hav ens, Versavlles, O. For years he was troubled with Kidney disease and neither doctors nor medicines Rave him relief. At length he tried Elec tric Bitters. It put him ou his feet in short order and now he testifies. 'I'm on the road to complete reco. very.'' Best on earth for Liver and Kidney troubles and all forms of stomach and bowel complaints, complaints. Only 50c. Guaranteed by M. B-Black ?urn. 1 ing, by a set of resolutions, to all the labor organiza tions affiliated with the Amer ican Federation of Labor for expressions of disapproval of President RooRevelt's declar ed Mopeh door" policy for un ion and non-union labor and of his reinstatement of W. A. Miller, the bookbinding fore man .whom Public Printer Palmer dismissed because he had been expelled from the union, is occasioning serious anxiety to leading republi cans in Washington. There a re 2,500,000 members of the Federation of Labor and if they undertake to defeat Mr. Roosevelt's nomination they will doubtless prove success ful because the republican politicians will be frightened into the belief that the nomi nation of a man the Federa tion opposes will menrirepub lican defeat. President Roose velt, who has availed himself of every opportunity to de nounce tbe banetul influence of the craven and the weak ling in society will doubtless welcome the opportunity to practice what he preaches and to demonstrate that he is neither, but whatever may be bis course it is doubtful if he can extricate himself from his present position without losing some votes. Apropos the Todd case, the Delaware postmaster or postmistress, who was dis missed from the service to please Allee, the Addicks Sen ator, Civil Service Commis sioner Greece has made pub lie a statement in which he points out that by virtue of the civil service regulation which was signed last March by President Roosevelt and which went into effect on Ap ril 15, eyen fourth class post masters are included in a measure, in the classified ser vice, ,Bv that regulation it became unlawful to dismiss any federal employee for po litical or religious reasons. Therefore, according to Com missioner Greene, the dismis sal of Miss Todd was clearly unlawful. Now it is reported from Oyster Bay that the President is incensed at Mr. Greene for thus ''annoying a cabinet officers." There can be no doubt Postmaster Gun eral Payne was seriously an noyed by Greene's published interview, but that the Pres ident should be annoyed with Greene is incredible as Greene was only doing duty with which he is charged, seeking to see that the civil seV vice reg ulatiocs are respected. Prob ably the facts are that the President is really annoyed with Payne for precipitating the entire Todd matter, but being afraid to quarrel with the Po6tmaster General al most on theeve of an election he Hieved his feelings by say ing a few things about A PURGATIVE PLEASURE. If you ever took De Witt's Little Early Risers for billiousness or con stipation you know what a purga tive plcasnre is. These famous little pills cler.nse the liver and ri'I the system of all bile without producing unpleasant effects. They do not gripe, sicken or weaken, but give tone and strength to thetissnes and organs involved. W. H, Howell ofj Houston. Texas, says: "No bettei pill can be usf.d than Little Early I Hirers for consttpafion, sick hnd ache, etc. Sold by Fhckbutn, Greene. There have been thre6 more indictments, against two per sons, returned by the District of Columbia a grand jury, of these against George W. Mea versformersuperintendent of salaries and allowances, the other is supposed to be n gainst a New York politician whose identity isstillconceal ed. It is now predicted that the grand jury will 'complete its work by October Stb.nnd that will close the Postoffice investigation. It is more than likely thatseveral more indict raents will be returned a gninst Beavers as the inspec tors seem to have learned his methods and to be tracing his conspiracies to defraud to their source. An important decision has just been render ed by United States Commis sioner Hitchcock in New York whereby Beavers is denied the privilege of learning allot the evidence which the govern ment has against him in bis trial, and isobligen to return to the Brooklyn jurisdiction from which he precipitately fled as soon as he learned that he was indicted. This same precedent will doubtless stand in the cases of Maurice Runkle, Isaac S. McGieha, G. H. HuntiDgton and Beavers himself again, when , an at tempt is made to bring them to Washington on indictment returned here. This decision is the occasion of great rejoic ing by the Officials ol the Postoffice and the Depart ment of Justice. A Boy's Wild Bide for Life.

Los Angoles Times, "To earn a little spend a little less." Such was the phi losophy of Robert Louis Ste venscn, a dreamer. Yet he was a dreamer' who wrote and spoke and wrote many wise words, among the wis est of which were the ones here quoted. They are words well worthy our grave con sideration, for it may be, our happiness lies at tbe root of them, at any rate, it does no harm to think them over. Sometimes, in the midst of the "strenuous life" which I the shibboleth of this intensu ly commercial age, it rests a man's heart to be sure, to find any on in thes times who would adopt a financial creed such as that taught by Stevenson. Yet, we are hard labored in the strife, or when we stretch a weary limh or seek rest for a tired brain in the few moments of relaxa tion that sheer exhaustion forces upon us, we may think withasigb, that the world be just as happv and we our selves as well off it the mad pace we follow would slacken up a bit and the dreamers bad thair way. The fierce struggle for wealth in whL'h most of us are engaged, and which, it would seem, make our sole oSject of existence, is a poor way to spend a lifetime after alt. Tbe reward of a life so spent, even when the object ol it has been attained are not nearly so great as one would suppose. And if we do not attain the object then our defeat is without one soothing memory, for the reason that we bave missed the hest of that life offered us while we plunged madly and blindly across the mast ed years. The secret of the trouble lies in the adoration of mere material wealth, which has long beset the world, and tbe eatirty inculcation in the minds of the rery children of such false doctrine. Even though the possessor of wealth may claim no other qualifications those of heart or mind we worship at the feet of the golden calf, just the same. We forget that mere money does not make a man rich. What sort of a heart has a rich man? What duality of mind does be pos sess? What does he do for the good of humanity? Is be honest, is he kind, is he true? Tht'se are the crucible in which he must be tried, and if any other man pass successfully thasame tests it matters not how few the pen nies in his pocket. The race tor wealth for great wealth is a hard race, and yet not worth the run ning, The coining of a song, the minting of a good deed, the spend thriftry of helpful ness and cheerrulne8s is worth more than all the gold in tb world. And anyhow, since we cannot all grow rich, let us be content with thedreamer'e w.ny to earn a little and' bpend a little less. THE PLEASURE OF EATING.

If they are sick or out of order, they fall to do their work. Pains, aches and rheu matism come from ex cess of uric acid in the blood, duo to netrlected kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as 'hough they had heart trouble, because the heart la over-working in pumping thick, kidney poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
