"Any gentleman may come into Georgia and depart unmolested, unless, while here, he violates the law. In such case he will be held and punished for his crime."

We are willing and anxious to have the fight, and any place suite us. ''As regards the size of the purse, we are willing to fight for any purse that is suitable to Jeffries. We want to know in advance, of course, that Jeffries is to get no money on the side, and that every thing Is on the. square. We will accept any fair proposition to fight anywhere."

A dispatch to the Pall Mall Gazette from Buda Pest says that in consequence of the agitation in Albania, Austria has ordered every garri son in Bosnia and Herzegovina to be placed on war footing immediately. Ad ditional regiments will leave Vienna this week for Serajeve and Banjluka. All the officers on furlough have been ordered to rejoin their regiments. News Not Confirmed In London. LONDON, July 31. Nothing has been received here to confirm tho tiAwd con tained In the dispatch of the Pall Mall Cxazette from Buda Pest, and outside of Vienna scant attention is paid to the al leged political Intrigues, which are aa serted to be at the bottom of th mwcnTif agitation in Albania. Accordlngtb a sen- sucionai Austrian newspaper, Italy and Montenegro started the Mussulmans In Albania on their present anti-Christian campaign, with the view of obtaining an excuse of some kind for intervention, the object being to checkmate Austria's pri ority claim on Albania, in the event of its separation from Turkey. Italy has several times denied these alleged designs on Albania. REWARD FOR LORD ROBERTS. English House Votes Him 100,000 lor Work In South Africa. LONDON, July 31. In the House of Commons today, proposing a resolution granting Field Marshal Lord Roberts 100,000 for his services In South Africa. A. J. Balfour, the government leader, in the course of a eulogy of the Field Marshal, said there was no doubt that but for Lord Roberta' daring and strat egy, and the rapidity with which his plans were carried out, Klmberly and Mafeklng would have fallen, 11,000 British would have been starved into submission at Ladysmlth, and there would have been a general rising of disloyalists In South Africa. The Liberal leader. Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, concurred In the motion. John Dillon, Irish Nationalist, strongly opposed the vote. He declared Lord Roberts had shown the greatest In humanity in South Africa, and said he had employed barbarous methods and had proved himself a dismal failure. Mr. Labouchere, Radical, and Mr. Kier-Hardy, Socialist and Independent Labor, also strongly opposed the measure. Swift MacNell, Irish Nationalist, said he con sidered Lord Roberts' operations were conducted with a maximum of cruelty and a minimum of humanity, and that his farewell speech at Cape Town was horrible hypocrisy and blasphemy. After further debate, Mr. Balfour moved the closure, which was carried by 257 to 108 votes. The resolution was adopted by a vote of 281 to 73. CALL FOR PROTECTION.

The peculiar silk tile which he affects and which 'has become a part of the personality of tho never-to-be-downed theatrical promoter, "was the cause of a new invention for keaplng it always polished and in shape. Of course Mr. Hammersteln is the father of the Invention. Mr. Hammersteln has worn the same hat for a number of years and says he would not part with It for any one of the fortunes tha'have been his in the past. He sent it twice a week to be ironed and polished, bftt found that this scheme was expensive that is, too expensive for a man with an In ventive brain. So ho turned his active organ over for a scheme to obviate this expenditure. The result is a new hat ironer and shaper, of which Mr. Ham mersteln Is so proud that he says he cannot share It with the public and will not have It patented unless all the hund reds and more schemes, he has always on hand fall through. It consists of, two rubber bags which are filled with hot water. One Is placed on the outside of the hat and the other fits snugly on the inside. With the latter in its place the exterior of the hat is pressed against the other heated bag for a few minutes. That is sufficient to make it as smooth and polished as a mirror. Play-Hanglng May End Fatally. LITTLE ROCK, Ark., July 31. Ten thousand persons saw Jim Anderson, a negro, hanged here last Friday. There were 50 fakers doing business with ex hibitions which bordered on the sideshow variety. Among the spectators was young Lemojlne Jayne, a son of Porter Jayne, a carpenter. After the execution the lad Inspected the sjcaffold and today completed a miniature scaffold. He in vited his playmates to take the role of the condemned man. Failing In this, he sought to take the place of the execu tioner as well as the person condemned. He adjusted the noose and stepped on the trap. His neck was not broken, but he Is unconscious, and doctors give no hope for recovery. For this and the scenes en acted, Governor Davis has made known his intention to recommend the Immediate repeal of the act which permits the pub lic to witness hangings.

Members Form Faction Which Ob- jected to Turning Down of Bryan by Regular Organization. COLUMBUS, O., July 31. The "Progres sive Democratic party" was organized here today. The attendance was so small thai many doubted up to 1 P. M. whether any attempt would be made to hold a state convention. During the week fol lowing the recent Democratic State Con vention a conference was held at Cleve land and a protest Issued against the ac tion of the Democratic convention in ig noring Bryan, free silver and other is sues, and In not reaffirming either of the National platforms on which Bryan made his contest for President. At that con ference a call was issued for a state con vention of "Bryan Democrats" and others opposed to both the Democratic and the Republican state platforms, to meet here today. Circulars containing copies of the call and the platform of the proposed new party were sent out by mall and were widely published. However, less than a dozen persons responded today to partici pate In the christening of the new party. George A. Groot, who called the con ference at Cleveland and presided over It on July 17, was both temporary and permanent chairman today, and was made chairman of the state committee of the new party. The convention was held in his room at the Great Southern Hotel, and In that small room he delivered his keynote speech, holding the floor for halt an hour. Even the promoters of the move ment did not disguise their disappointment over the small attendance. It Is said a few other persons who came to Colum bus, In response to the call, were unable to And the. meeting place. The reporters, who were perched on and about the bed, outnumbered the delegates two to one. The total attendance did not exceed 30, though the formalities of a state conven tion were carried out. Bernard Hubert called the convention to order and at once announced George Groot as tem porary chairman. Order was restored at once, and Groot was Introduced and spoke as follows:" "At a conference held at Cleveland re cently, composed of men who believe in the doctrines set forth in the Chicago and Kansas City platforms, It was concluded, after deliberation, that the political situ ation required that some definite action be taken with reference to the course to be pursued by the supporters of those platforms, and of, Mr. Bryan at the com ing election. It was decided, since the recent so-called Democratic convention had deliberately repudiated those plat forms and Mr. Bryan, that the only prop, er thine to do was either to refuse to vote or to put a separate ticket In tho field. The latter course was adopted. "Instead of our being bolters, the con vention recently assembled was composed of bolters. It was a bolting convention, for it bolted the National Democratic platforms, and abandoned the leader who made the fight upon them. The platform adopted by it is meaningless, and lacks political virility. It is destitute of princi ples and offers no political issue. It is a platform adopted in order to secure votes f rain the opposition merely. "They say the money question Is dead, since at two elections the people have ap proved of the gold standard, and there fore there is no reason why the Kansas City platform, should be Indorsed, or Mr. Bryan, either. If the money question be dead, then the party itself must be a corpse. It could not possibly have any reason to exist If that question Is dead, for with It eliminated from the platform. nothing remains worth contending for.. If It be dead, by the same token the ques tions of tariff, imperialism, expansion and government Tjy Injunction are dead. Dominated by the Trusts. "The recenfc convention was dominated and controlled by trust magnates and their paid attorneys and those who be lieve In the gold standard. The followers of Grover Cleveland were there in force. They did not conceal their identity, but made known to all that! they were there for the purpose of taking the' first step in this state towards demolishing the Kansas City platform and Installing in place and power the advocates of tho gold standard. They succeeded In con trolling the convention, in making their nominations and In drafting tfrelr plat form, but they will fall utterly in driving the Democratic voters of this state Into the camp of the gold contingent In No vember next, especially those who believe that the money question Is the paramount one. We are now asked to swear allegi ance to those who sought to destroy the party during the last two campaigns and to abandon and stamp upon the principles for which we fought and struggled then. Our Implacable en1 .les have become our leaders, and they .re seeking to become our political masters. If they succeed In their efforts it will be tho fault of the Bryan Democrats of this state. Those who have struggled In this cause have done so not for office, but to secure better conditions for the people. "To my mind it Is an evidence of a concerted movement to get rid of the money question and place the party In the same position it occupied for 30 years previous to 1S98. During that period It was a party of negation. Since 1S96 It has stood and fought for affirmative prin ciples. If the Democratic party was right In 1896 and In 1900 upon the money ques tion, and that question Is not settled, then why should that party In Ohio abandon it In 1901? If the contention was right dur ing those campaigns, it is right now. If politics is to be carried on for the pur pose of securing office alone, then why bother about great principles that involve the well-being of men? Prosperity Statements Untrue. "The gold-standard advocates, both Democrats and Republicans, tell us that the country Is In a prosperous condition; that the idle are em ployed; business Is good and the peo ple are contented. If this condition pre vails, then why fry to push the Republi can party out of place and power, for has not that party furnished this condi. tlon? These statements, however, are not true. They are made to deceive the un thinking. This condition does not exist, That the people of this country are appar ently prosperous is true, but that pros perity is not the result alone of the In crease In . the money volume, but is due to the expansion of credits in the coun try. "Can it be said that a country is pros perous when the debts of the people are constantly Increasing? The Increase in the debts of the banks in four years of more than $6,000,000,000 is surely not an evidence of prosperity. Can it be said that the money question is dead with these facts staring us in the face? To my mind these facts alone are conclusive proof of the fact that the people of this country are not only nor prosperous, but that they are becoming hopelessly bankrupt Debts are not evidences of prosperity: they are evidences of adversity rather. Another evidence that tends to prove that the people are not prosperous is furnished by the trusts themselves. The great manu facturing Industries of the country have within the pasf five years combined for the purpose of preventing a fall in the prices of the things they manufacture and contfcol, and In combining they haver increased their stock liabilities and bond ed debts from less than $4,000,000,000 to over $20,000,000,000. This is, of course, con clusive proof that the money question Is dead! The total debt of the people Is more than $20,000,000,00 more than the assessed value of all their, property, and more than Jialf of the real value of all the property . they own and control. This Is another INVE ST The Absolute Truth of the Statements Published in These Columns Note the Character of the Testimony and the Standing of the Witnesses Who Give the Result of Their Experience to the Public, and Draw Your Own Conclusions. The testimonials that are published in these columns are testimonials that "tes tify." They mean something. They tell of years of suffering from real sickness. These people describe, in their own lan guage, the particulars of their af flictions, and of their vain efforts to ob tain relief from other sources. They tell of the complete, perfect and permanent cures accomplished under the Copeland treatment. They are common, honest, conscientious and trustworthy people, who, If you call upon or write them, will cheerfully verify the truth of their pub lished statements. In all the years since the establishment of their offices in Portland, the Copeland physicians have never asked of the Intel ligence of the public but one thing, to learn the truth from the evidence of real people rignt here at home not Imaginary people far away who are thoroughly and permanently cured. And this proof has been furnished for the Incredulous In the public press, with names and addresses of cured people, that they can verify; and furnished for intel ligence in a thousand othor ways, in the consultation-rooms, where dally those come and go who tell to others the story of their benefit: in the marvelous growth of this practice, which- has endured all manner of criticism, all manner of attacks, and Is stronger and better today than ever; in Its reputation, not only In Port land, but throughout the Northwest; In the fact that thousands of people yearly, who cannot come to Portland are receiv ing the benefit of the skill of these phy sicians through correspondence in the mails. And why has all this been said and written? What Is the necessity of en forcing this lesson and keeping It before the public? This: That the people may know the truth; that the people shall not be confused by false teachings or false prophets, that humbugs and quackery and deception shall be made to live In tho light of contrast with real skill and with professional faith well kept' through all these years.

If these statements be true, can it be said the people are prosperous, that the money question is dead? And yet, in face of these facts, every gold advo cate and every plutocrat will tell jou, with bland smile, that the country never enjoyed such prosperity as It? does at the present time. "Already can be heard upon every hand the statement that we must get an issue that we can win upon; that Bryan has led us to defeat twice, and now we must get somebody else who can bring us vic tory. The champions of the gold standard are deriding Bryan, denouncing the prin ciples for which he stood, and are paving the wray for the control of the next Na tional convention, In order to nominate some man who will be the tool and ser vant of Wall street. Will the bolters be able to control the convention? If they should, and it now seems quite certain that they will, the work that was done In 1S96 will have to be done over again. If It should be, the Democratic party. a3 suoh t.hereafter will cease to be a factor In American politics. A FIsht for Principle. "Shall we assist them In this work? Shall we strengthen their cause with our votes and influence? Shall we acknowl edge publicly to the world that we, voters of Ohio, turn our backs upon the prin ciples for which we stood, simply because wo were defeated twice? The fight In which we have been engaged Is one for principle, and we should not abandon the struggle, not even during our state campaigns. We should present to the en emy a united front, and be actuated by one common purpose, and we should not permit ourselves to be led from our course by the siren songs of the trust magnates who seek to control both parties. It is not a question of policy or of expediency. It Is a question of principle which con fronts us, and he who is actuated by principle In his political conduct cannot, and do justice to himself, vote the ticket that was recently placed In nomination by the alleged Democratic convention. "In 1S95, the Democratic convention at Chicago said to the world that all those who did not believe In the doctrines set forth in the platform adopted by It could have no place In the party; that those who have dominated before in the Interest of Wall street should no longer control tho party. They selected a leader, and under his banner two great campaigns were fought. That we did not win was no fault of his. That we did not win was no fault of those who stood with him. That we did not win was because the money trust was able to control, by one process or another sufficient of the voters to defeat us. We are now in this state called upon to say whether we shall sub mit to the dominion of the same class of W" Mri. Irmii P. Cor, 331 Chapman street. Portland: My little boy, Elwood. aged 6, suffered from a catarrhal trouble, which threatened to entirely destroy his hearing and ruin his health. Ills nose was so stopped up that he could not breatho through It. His tonsils were greatly en larged and his throat dry. He whs cross in the dsy and restless at night Drs. Copeland and Montgomery cured him per fectly. Little Ulnooil Cox, 331 Chapman Street, Portland. Worthy of the Fullest Confidence, Says One Who Knows. Sir. W. L. Dlnnmoor, n well known merchant, located at 3S9-91 East Burnsldo street. Portland: From my own personal experience I can most heartily recom mend the Copeland Specialists to all suf ferers from catarrhal troubles. When I began my treatment I was In a wretched state of health, but now I am quite Well Asnln. The trouble from which I suffered had been working on my system for olght years, commencing with the head and throat and finally Involving my stomach and nervous system. My nore was stopped up so I could scarcely breathe through It. The gather ing of phlegm In the throat kept me hawk ing and spitting continually, and the fill ing up of the throat at night destroyed my rest. I hnd Miserable Sick Headaches which became so bad that they unfitted me for work for several days at a time. I was unable to properly digest food, which lay like a load In the stomach and caused me great distress. I lost flesh and strength and my nervous systom seemed completely shattered. I had taken all kinds of patent reme dies and "sure cures," but got no better. In tact, I steadily grew worse. I had heard a great deal about the Copeland treatment, but thought It was like the other advertised cure I had tried, and be fore beginning my treatment I made full Inquiries regarding these physicians and the cures they clnlm to have effocted, and Thoroughly Satlnficd Myself that these claims were genuine and true. I then began my treatment and have Ob tained the greatest possible benefit. I now breathe freely through my nose at all times, have gained 15 pounds, and my general health Is befter than it har been in years. I have already sent several friends to the Copeland Institute and am always glad to recommend these physicians, for they are worthy of the fullest confidence.
