MINISTERS WAKE UP Doing More for England Than! the People Supposed. NOT ENGAGED IN APOLOGIZING Atmosphere Cleared by the Explan- Atieas of Wradbam and Goshen 1b. the Hohsc of Commons. LONDON, Feb. 3. To say that the na tion stood appalled at the tone and sub stance of the earlier speeches of the offi cial leaders of both parties In parliament does not go beyond the truth. Since then, however, has come relief from most un expected quarters. The situation has been distinctly cleared, and the country now has grounds to hope that the cabi net means to act, not talk, and is thinking of the work ahead, rather than of self exculpation. Thanks first to George "Wyndham. under-secretary of state for the -war office, thee to George J. Goschen, first lord of the admiralty, much of the gloom has been dispelled and the nation Is able to feel more comfortable on an essential point that the deficiencies of or ganization have beea fully recognized and that the government Is determined to rem edy them. There Is small wonder the country Is asking why. If subordinate numbers of the government, like Mr. Wjndham and Mr. Goschen, who, though fonneny an Impassioned orator, of recent years has lost much of his forcefulness, are able to produce this tranqulllzlng effect, statesmen of more conspicuous po sition have failed to adopt the same tone of candor and good feeling. Lord Salis bury and Mr. Balfour distinctly preju diced the cabinet, and Sir Henry Camp-bell-Bannennan and James Brlce serious ly damaged the liberals by their apparent indifference to the most manifest cur rents of public sentiment Mr Wyndham and Mr. Goschen, how ever, have proven themselves In touch with national opinion, and as Mr. Goschen proceeded almost directly from a cabi net meeting to the house of commons, the country believes it is entitled to accept the resolute tone In which he spoke as a token that the ministers at length appre ciate aright the situation as It affects the government and the country. Mr. Wynd hams speech immensely enhanced his parliamentary reputation, and hiB chances of attaining full ministerial rank. He has been a soldier and a Journalist and rail road director, is fairly rich, and is con nected with the beet families in the coun try. With political training of a high order, Mr. Wyndham will most likely be among the men leading Great Britain In the 20th century. Mr Goschen also rose to the situation. He displayed some of his old-time fire, and roused his hearers to strong excite ment, notably when he charged Mr. Brice, who declared the war was unjust and un necessary, with giving a brief to every enemy of England. The whole tone of Mr Goschen's measured language was re assuring, and showed the admiralty is keeping a good lookout ahead. There was no mistaking the significance of his in timation that the admiralty has been as siduously yet undemonstratlvely engaged In perfecting naval arrangements to meet all contingencies. Mr. Goschen indulged In the usual reservations and qualifica tions but the country reads between the lines a recognition of possible interna tional dangers, and is Immensely relieved at Mr. Goschen's assurances that the country thus far has only put out its left arm and that Its right arm Is held In reserve for possible foreign Interference In the wwusi er n attempt to rob Great Britain the fnritz of victory. There is a movement on foot to In due? the government to refuse to discuss at any length John Redmond's amend ment on the ground that the present stage of the campaign Is, not suitable for the dispussloh of conciliation or the terms of peace "William Redmond desires Infor ms tion as to the relations of Great Britain with the United States and Germany, and proposes to ask A. J. Balfour, the gov ernment leader, Monday whether he has any announcement to make or papers to lay on the table bearing on the proposed new triple alliance "between Great Brit ain, the United States and Germany, an rnunced by Mr. Chamberlain at Le'ces ter November S. An important statement was made by Mr "Wjndham in the house of commons Thursday, namely, that the vacanies the war had made among the officers would b partly filled by promotion from tho ranks. This means the democratization of the army On this subject a letter, which Is attracting much attention, appeared in rr,tda s issue of the Daily Chronicle. It was written by a British officer who krovs most of the armies of Europe from personal observation and who has i.cn much service. He plainly declared tvat the class of society from which the I' ii?h officers are drawn la "distinctly de generate, due to lack of intellectual train Irg and the dissipation and vice of the axis ocracy," and that the class "cpmmon-I3- known as society provides 99 per cent of ihc officers." The writer also says: "The Intellectual standard of the young man of 17, fresh from the English pub I " s hools, is lower than that of a Ger-r-an board schoolboy of S. His time is de vc'rcl to athletic sports. As his ancestors ra ine, he marries a girl of the same tn. ng ard in three or four generations s nv will consist of physically splen 1 1 Jr eloped knots."

NEW YORK, Feb. 3. Very little news of the situation in South Africa has been giien out In London during the past 24 hours. Much work is in progress on the southern frontier of the Free State, hut the details are "being held back until re sults can be reported. That is the im pression made by such dispatches as are allowed to come through from Sterk strom and French's camp near Colesberg. The report that the Boer losses at Spion kop Wednesday last exceeded 1000 dead, although unconfirmed, has created a favorable Impression and very few are disposed to discredit it The Morning Leader believes that General Buller has begun a movement toward Ladysmlth. The article says: "Geneial Buller probably engaged soon after noon yesterday (Friday) If all his artillery and munitions had come up. In any case, his orders were definite for an advance at the latest this morning. There Is no reason to suspect that the direction is that of Dundonald's reconnols sance towards Hongerspool, close to Beth any, although some cayalry and horse artillery may go by that way, so as to operate on or perhaps beyond the Acton Homes road. "We arc inclined to believe General Bul ler means to pound out of existence any Boers or any works lying on the river near the Junction of the Little Tugela, If he succeeds in establishing h'mself there on the northern bank, he will virtually have turned the Boer positions at Onder brook and Groheler's kloof, overlooking Colenso. This would mean the splitting of J the Boer forces on the south of Lady- smith. Probably General White would be able to help the effort by occupying with energy the remaining bodies of the ene my." There is no actual news to support the statement of the Leader, but several of the London morning papers profess to be lieve that General Buller is pushing to ward Ladysmlth. Warren's troops on Wednesday were still resting south of the Tugela, -while General Lyttleton's brigade held Its position on the north bank. General Joubert has gone to the Boer camp on the Upper Tugela, an apparent indication that he expects another attack on his rlcht The Boers are exhibiting consider able anxiety in regard to the move ment of the British flying column, which started through Zululand In the d'- rection of Vryheld ahout the time that General Buller began his move toward Springfield. Boer reinforcements from about Ladysmlth "have been hurried back to protect their lines of communication northward. . General Charles Tucker, who came from India to command the Seventh division, has gone up to Modder River. This seems to Indicate that the troops of that di vision, which are now arriving at the Caps, will, as well as those of the Sixth division, under Kelly-Kenny, be utilized along the border of the Free State and take part In the prospective invaslop. The reported acthlty of Colonel Plum ef s force near Crocodile pool, more than 10 dajs ago. Is a good sign that a strong effort will be made by him to push through to Mafeking, which had evidently not been relieved at the time the Boer advices 60 stated. The good effect of Mr. Wyndham's speech in explanation of the war office's work was apparent in the commons and in the press. The unionists spoke with in creased confidence, since they could refer" to the unique record of the war office in raising and dispatching 180,000 troOps for foreign service at a remote distance, and the liberals admitted that the govern ment was free from the reproach of in capacity In the management In ad ministrative details. The opposition press has persisted for weeks In exaggerating the resources of the Dutch and minimizing the British strength, whereas the Boer army has already passed Its maximum point and Is declining and wearing away, while the British reinforcements are steadily arriving. The most sensational episode of last night's debate in the commons was Sir Edward Clarke's proposal that Lord Rose bery should be sent to" the Cape as a sub stitute for Sir Alfred Mllner. It was re ceived with jeers by the ministerial party, and the Irish members knew not whether to express approval or condemnation, for Lord Rosebery is not their candidate for any office, angry as they may be with Mr. Chamberlain. The first batch of wounded belonging to the naval contingent serving In South Africa has arrived in England. They are mostly skilled gunners. They say that the Boers' Maxlm-Nordenfeldt one-pound quick-firing guns have a most demoraliz ing effect on the British. These guns are made in England, but they are not sup plied to the British troops. Seattle "Won Front Tncoma. SEATTLE, Feb. 3.

There are many bodies here awaiting transportation, and only those can be shipped where relatives or guar dians 61 the deceased make written and properly attested applications. Adjutant Babcock said to The Oregonlan corre spondent today at army headquarters: "The bodies of Oregon volunteers will be shipped north as soon as the depart ment can send them, and whenever rela tives or friends of the dead file written requests for the remains. The govern-1 ment will pay for transportation of the caskets. If not called for, the bodies will be burled at the Presidio with military honors."

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH A Pleasant, Simple, hut Safe nnd Effectual Cure for It. Catarrh of the stomach has long been considered the next thing to Incurable. The usual symptoms are a full or bloat ing sensation after eating, accompanied sometimes with sour or watery risings, a formation of gases, causing pressure on the heart and lungs and difficult breath ing, headaches, fickle appetite, nervous ness and a general played out, languid feeling. There is often a foul taste In the mouth, coated tongue, and if the Interior of the stomach could be seen it would show a slimy, Inflamed condition. The cure for this, common and obstinate trouble is found in a treatment which causes the food to be readily, thoroughly digested before it has time to ferment and irritate the delicate mucous surfaces of the stomach. To secure prompt and healthy digestion Is the one necessary thing to do, and when normal digestion la secured the catarrhal condition will have disappeared. According to Dr. Harlanson the safest and best treatment Is to use after each meal a tablet, composed of Diastase, Asep tic Pepsin, a little Nux, Golden Seal and fruit acids. These tables can now be found at all drug stores under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, xand not helng a patent medicine can be used with perfect safety and assurance that healthy appetite and thorough digestion will fol low their regular use after meals. Mr. N. J. Booher, of 2710 Dearborn street, Chicago, 111., writes: "Catarrh Is a local condition resulting from a neglected cold in the head, whereby the lining mem brane of the nose "becomes Inflamed and the poisonous discharge therefrom passing backward Into -the throat reaches the stomach, thus producing catarrh of the stomach. Medical authorities prescribed for me for three years for catarrh of stomach without cure, but todajME am the happiest of men after using "only one box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tahlets. I can ndt find appropriate words to express my good feeling. I have found flesh, appetite and,sound rest from their use.

At frequent Intervals they would gather and break, and cause me great suffer'ng. My hearing was very dull. I could not hear ordinary con versation. This was a great annoyance to me in baeineee, and I was always under a nervous strain. "I had tried everything that ave any hopes of the restoration of my hearing, but grew worse. After considering some time I began a course of treatment with Drs. Copeland and Montgomery, and when I got through with It I was completely and permanently eured. This was seven years ago, and I haven't had any trouble since. My hearing has Improved right along, and I now hear as well as though I had -never had any trouble with my ear3.
