POLITICAL CRISIS STIRS A]^ENGLAND It Is Now the Sole Topic of Conversation. BALFCUR TO CONSULT KING. TRAGtDY IN CONCORD. Nominationn For Cabinet Vacancie* Will Probably Then Be Ptetented. Roseberry Cabinet a Possible Con- Contingensy—Premier Is Leit^ Se verely Criticised. London, Sept. 19.—The political cri sis is still the sole topic ot discu:5sion BaJloiir is expected to have an audi ence of King Edward at Balmoral to day, when doubtless he will present the nominations for the cabinet vacan cies. The exact nature of these ap pointments still coatlnues a matter of varied surmise. Regarding the eventful result of the upheaval I'he Spectator fo-recasts that Mr. Balfour, when he appeals to the country, will •be beaten and succeeded by a Rose- bory cabinet, which w'ill not last long, attracts the greatest attention. A curious pha^e of the situation is the severe criticism regardless of par ty lines bestowed on Mr. Balfour's action in publishing his views and celling them in pamphlet form. The premier's keen seut^e of chivalry and honor is far tcvo deeply appreciated by all parties to ever permit the sug gestion that he purposely adopted the doubtful p-ra-jtice. By .Mr. Balfour’s own admission he is a "mere child in such matters,” and his Ine.xijcrience in busine.ss altairs now appears to have put him at the mercy of the publish ers of the pamphlet, who aie coining money over the vital is^uo in nation al affairs. That Mr. Baliour will c.e- voto his portion of the jirtic-teds to some charity is generally assumed, bni it is regretted that he diil not men tion some such intention iu the pref ace of the pamphlet. The Outlook, which is a warm sup porter of the premier, declares Mr. Balfour’s indiscretion “strikes a rude blow at one’s reverence for the tradi tions of English public life, wlien a public servant’s position seems to bo used for private gain, no matter ■«vhose.” The Outlook adds that the fact that a note was sent to the editors with the payment, only allowing them to quote l.OOO w'orcs, textually is “one of the worst feature in this deplorable ’business.” The S])ectator and other periodicals also expressed concern on the latter point. The Outlook estimates that the expc-ns-«-s of one hundred copies alone would cover $17.CK)(J. of which ;Mr. Balfour will receive a large share. The pamphlPL promises to reach a Bale of a million copics. The copies printed have reached a premium, many of them selling for oU cents, double the price of the issue. Several of the conservative agents have gone so far as to threaten to re sign. The publishers make no dis count to party organs even though thousands are ordered and actually de mand the money in advance. The Associated Press learns from an au thoritative source that Mr. Balfour ex pects Mr. Chamberlain to re-enter ihe cabinet in event that an appeal to the -country returns Mr. Balfour to power. Both desire, however, that the elec tions be postiK>ned as long as possi ble in order to give Mr. Chamberlain the opporiunity to imi)resy his views on the people. If the governmnt is return-ed of if a weak, liberal ministry Is retained in power only a short time. :Mr. Balfour anticipates that he and !Mr. Chamberlain will re-organize a new' ministry. According to an au thority thoroughly cognizant with Mr. Chamberlain’s plans. Mr. Balfour might then find Mr. Chamberlain unwilling to join him. “It has been Mr. Chamberlain’s pur pose,” said the person quoted, “to form a party of his own and he may take advantage of the present op])ortunity to carry out his intntion. His repu tation as the only public man in Eng land with a perfect policy coui)led with his strength of will and ability may enable him to achieve his ambition. In case of the success at the elections of his advanced program of prefenen- tial tariffs, he would form his own cab inet and probably displace Mr. Bal Mr. Balfour and Lord Lansdowne both went to Balmoral today. Mr Broderick goes there Monday. Prominent Business Men Have Fatal Altercation—One Dead. Charlotte, N. C., Sept.

Fill a bottle or common glass w'ith your water and let it stand tweniy-four hours: a J. sediment or set- tling indicates an unhealthy condi- " neys: if it stains your linen it is evidence of kid ney trouble: too frequent desire to pass it or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kidneys and blad der are out of order. ■ What to Do. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp- Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every rart of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, v/uie or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extra ordinary effect of Swamp=Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its v/on- derful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best.
