Yirginimi.Pdot Tin duty was removed from hid'8 nnl the price ot shoe went I'ulhcnn rome in Iiw from I Canada, but Ihmusp of it there j has Jliwn no reduction in thj price of paper. The fa t is that the Sugar trust fixe the price of pugar without regard toduti'S. Philadelphia Inquirer. Of course the free-listing of hides has had no efT.-ct in minc ing the prices of shoes or other manufacture of leather, nnd no body possessing a modicum of intelligence ami taking the trou ble to use it, co-dd have evr seriously thought that it would. It is the finished product, not. the raw material, that th great moss of . consumers bny. To remove th- d'lty on Hip latter, without at the same tim mak ing a rorespoiiding reduction in the tai riff rates on the former, was imply to cheapen bv so mnc'i the cost of produc tion to the manufacture without insuring that the consumer should benefit by the saving ef fected. A result identically similar would follow upon legislation putting raw suar on the free list, while maintaining the exist ing duti is on the refined product. In that event the trust w ould be the gain-r, while the preat body of domestic consumers would reap no iota of benefit. Sin-h, however i not the democratic bill. That measure provides for the free listing alike of the re fined article and the raw product and so removes the strangle-hold which the duties on the former give die trust on the domestic. Between this proDosed legislation and that actually enacted in re lation to hides there is a wide difference which only wilful blind ness cun f til dearly to regonize.. As to the Inqirer's contention that the Miirar trust lixes the pi ice ol Mjgar wit hout retard to duties, " it is on'v necessary to point to two indisputable fact to show the absolute, absurdity of lhat: Firs.the trust has for years consistently ami vigorous ly opposed, and still any and all efforts to lower the duties on re fined sugar; secondly, the diff-r-ence between the prices at which the trust sails its products in New York snd in London is al most identical with the duty on refined sugar under the existing tariff law. If the trust could con trol the domestic market as well without the tariff as with it, why should it be so insistentupon the maintenance of the existing du ties ot all? Again, is the fact the difference between the trust's selling price at home and abroad exactly equals the tariff duty only a co-incidence and nothing more? Maybe the Inquirer so beleives; but, il so. it is only be cause the wish is father to the thought. - m - Repels Attack of Death. 'Five yeare ago two doctors told me 1 had only two years to live." This startling statement was made by Stillman Green, Malachite. .Col "They told me I would die of con sumption. It was then up to me to try the best lung medicine and J began to use Dr. King's New Dis covery. It was well I did, for today I am working and belieye I owe my life to this great throat and lung cure that has cheated the grave of another victim." It's folly to suffer with coughs, colds or other throat and lung troules now. Take the cure that's the safest. Price 50c and I1.00. tor sale at all drug gists..

No one knows the cause of dhirn Hside from the undoubt ed conmrtion lietween this dis ease and the use of cpoi.ed corn. It "(in not be contended that spoihtl corn is the sole ":iue, as the nature ot th.p connection mains unknown nndpellagruhasjby those who resort to the other occurred among people who had j M,rt of a thing to win tin ir di- neveriii tlinr lives eaten corn. In this country our students ot the disease have not evidence t convictcorn of any guilt at all. Hut in Italy the matter has been elab irately tested with one in variable result. It is found that pellagra enn be controlled in the worst ntllicted district if the Gov eminent enforce abandonment of both the cultivation and the consumption of coin. Pellagra is practically confined to the corn t'ouauming districts, increasing or decreasing with t lie consump tion of corn. It was unknown until this native American crop had t'een introduced there. The Public Health and Marine Hospital Service considered var ious theories which have been advanced on the subj-ct includ ing one perhaps advanced from interested motives and evidently 1 absurd that cotton neel oil isj to blame. It found no ground whatever for this supposition As regards theories implicating I certain vegetables and the gnat theory, it was unable in case to find the proof: People who eat corn cured in the shock are perfectly safe. There seems to be little doubt, in fact that Southern cases of pellagra mark some special con nection with the use ot Western corn, which has much opportun ityto ferment or spoil before it arrives here. Ortainlv pellagra's extensive spread followed upon tl'.e extended use of Western corn On grounds pxuallv of health and thrift t lie South should pro- luce at home all the corn requir ed. Meantime we must contin ue hoping for more light upon this dreaded disease. The medi cal scientist who affords it will be hailed by Southern people as a benefactor indeed. Glorious News. Comes from Dr. J. T. Curtiss, Dwisjht. Kans. He writes: "1 not only have cured bad cases of ecze ma in my patients with Electric Bitters, but also cured myself by them ot fhe same disease. I f e e 1 sure that they will cure an. case of eczema." This shows what thon sands have proved, that Electric Hitters is a most effective blood pu rifier. It's an excellent remedy for eczema, tetter, saltrheum, ulcers, boils and running nores. It stimu lates the liver, kidneys and bowels, expels poisons, help? digestion, builds up the strength.

Charlotte w: Another pitiful story in today from Durham . J ! Comes If the' fact s iorthiu the bill ofcha rges axe tru, a young white man has Ietraye' the confidence of a beau tif.il mill girl, and ruined her. It seems that thegirl was induced lo consent to marriage. Accord ingly a ceremony wax gone through with which thegirl thought to be regular and and binding. Later developments show that a fake magistrate had been called into play and spur ious ceremony performed, Tiie girl was deceived into be lieving that she was regularly wedded, and since the mock cer emony has been living with the reprobate who deceived her. The case leaked out, facts became known, and the gay deceiver of a young girl'sconfidence and her trust was jailed. At the hearing yesterday he was convicted and sentenced to 12 months on the roads. It is the same old story, hand ed down from one sorrowing heart to another since t he world began. Man's inhumanity to woman! Twelve months for the scoun drel who by deceit nnd perjury seduced and ruined a girl, and a life sontenc to the victim of his helHsh plot! At the end ol the twelve months period the young man will re turn to society. He will be wel comed back into many homes. Some of his kindred spirits will congratulate him on his clever ness. He will find other lactory girls, and he will perhaps, keep up the diabolical work he has ommenced. Society will welcome him back. Rut what ol the girl. What home will invite her through her Mirtals? What man w ill seek her land in marriage? What chan ce has she in a world ever ready to stone ti branded woman? It matters not if tier soul is as pure as au angel's. She must suffer through life the stigma cast by a villian who broke a heart and umed a lif" with the price of a twelvemonths sentence. Arizona Twice Admitted. A remarkable coincidence touch ing the admission of Arizona to the Union is pointed out in a dispatch from Phoenix. On Feb ruary 14-18G2, it appears, Pres dent Jefferson Davis issued a pro clairaaton admitting it to the confederate states of America just oO years later today Presi dent Taft issued a proclamation admiting it to the Union. A need hardly be said, Arizona did not enter the confederacy, and a little more than a year after Da vis' proclamation, ou February 24, 18G3, itwasmade a territory under the Lincoln government Pi esumely Mr. Taft did not know when he issued his proclamation on Wednesday of this week, that he was observing a picturesque semi cetennial.
