Bladder troubles almost always'result from a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is obtained quickest by a "proper treatment of the kidneys. If you are feeling badly you can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, and over- j comes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often through the day, v. and to get up many times during the I night. The mild and the extraordinary j effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. ! It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and one-dollar size bottles. You may halve a sample bottle of this wonderful new discovery and a book that tells all about it, both sent free by mail. Address, Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.

Tillman on Heburn Bill. 1 Washington, March 15.?"The gross annual earnings of the railroads in round number are two thousand million dollars. Their net expenses are i seven hundred million dollars. It 1 will thus be seen that once a year every dollar in circulation in the United States passes through the hands of railroads, while once in three years every dollar in the United States becomes a part of their net earnings, and these net earnings equal in amount | annually the entire expenditures of l TTnited States anvernment." ^ ?? ? ? This was a striking statement made by Senator Tillman in biB formal written report on the Hepburn railroad rate bill which he was directed to make by the senate committee on interstate commerce and which he j presented in the senate promptly after it met today. "It is small wonder," he continued, "that with such princely revenues the most brilliant legal minds of the country are at their command to conduct legislation, frame laws and secure their passage through legislatures and congress and torexercise such an overmastering kfiuence over the judiciary and executive departments, both of state and national, that the average citizen is almost driven to believe that the fight is hopeless, and that the government instead of controlling the railroads is controlled by them and that the liberties of the people, to say + * % Li. !. notmng oi tneir ngnis, is m jeopardy." The report is an extensive one and in conclusion the senator warned the friends of the proposed legislation that all their Expectations may not be realized at this session of congress. The great influence of railroads, he j said, might ^prevent the passage of any bill at all or the enaction of one that would prove wholly inadequate. Such an action on their part will, in my judgment, he said, be very unwise and will only dam up the water. If those most interested in these great properties will not consent to wise legislation to relieve distress cf people there is danger of more radical polioies and leaders coming to the front, with the result that legislation far more drastio and dangerous than anything proposed in this bill will be | offered and enacted. Tortue By Savages. "Speaking of the torture to which some of the savage tribes in the Philippines subject their captives reminds me of the intense suffering I endured for three months from inflammation of the kidneys," says W. M. Sherman,of Cusli mg, Me., "Nothing helped me until I tried Electric Bitters, three bottles of which completely cured me."

Columbia Record, March 15th. Governor Heyward iB going to shut down tight on this special terms of court evil, which the last legislature so emphatically disapproved of and cut off appropriation for, since he finds out be has authority in law to do so. When the legislature before the last passed the ten circuit bill, providing for two more judges and two more solicitors, it was promised by the advocates of the bill that special terms and special judges would be a thing of the past, but the evil has continued without abatment. Solicitor Timmerman, of the local circuit, in a letter received todav asks the governor for a special term for liichland, but this will not be granted unless Assistant Attorney Qeneral Youmane, who is just now out of the city, gives an opinion that it is obligatory upon the governor to order the special term upon such a request. The special term is desired to dispose of the county graft cases and the case of embezzlement against Daniel Zimmerman. But the letter gives no reason. It saye: "Dear Sir: As provided in section 274, volume 2, code of laws of South Carolina, I hereby make application for a special term of the court of creneral sessions, tn he held in Rich land county, commencing the second Monday in April, and to continue V two weeks; and &sk that you appoint and commission some man learned in the law to hold said extra term." This is the first application of the kind since the legislature acpurned. Upon the decision of the attorney general hangs the fate of special terms of court throughout the State. Governor Heyward says he will not pay a iadge out of his contingent fund, that if it is decided he must order a special term he will simply present the bill to the legislature. And it is strongly probable that the legislature will refuse to order the bill paid. ? g Honea Path. Homicide. John Marion Ashley, a kinsman of "Citizen Josh" Ashley, of Anderson county, wa9 shot and killed by Policeman White, of Honea Path, last Thursday. It appears that Ashley was the leader of the Ashely clan of that section, who very often went to town and "took charge" of it. Oa this particular occasion Policeman White was attempting to arrest him when the difficulty was precipitated by Ashley which resulted in his being shot to death by White. There was danger of violence ou the part of the Ashley crowd for some time, and the governor ordered out the Anderson malitia company to preserve order. CaDt. McCullv. who was in command of the company, in his reporfc to the governor, stated that in his opinion serious trouble was averted by the presence of the malitia. All is qaite now. White has been lodged iD j ul, and has secured counsel, and will apply for bajl at once. Sleeplessness. Disorders of the stomach produce a nervous condition and often prevent sleep.
