S
THE FRIAR QUESTION
TAFT "VVILI TRY TO REACH XX, TJX
DBRSTAXDIXG WITH ROME.
Other Matters to Be Settled With the
Vatican Water-Care Testimony
Before Senate Committee.
WASHINGTON, May 10. Governor Taft
closed up his business here today In con
nection with affairs in the Philippines and
left for Cincinnati, where he will attend
to some private business prior to his de
parture from New York on the 17th Inst,
on his return to his post at Manila. He
will stop at Rome In order to discuss the
question of the friars In the -Philippines
with the authorities at the Vatican. He
will be accompanied in his mission to
Rome by Judge James F. Smith, of the
Supreme Court of the Philippines, and
Major John B. Porter, of the Judge-Advocate's
office. These gentlemen -were se
lected because of their familiarity with
the auestlon at iseue.
Secretary Root this afternoon made the
following official statement In regard to
the mission to Rome:
"It has been decided that Governor
General Taft shall stop at Rome in the
course of his return journey to Manila
for the purpose of reaching, if possible, a
friendly understanding with the authori
ties having control of the disposition of
the property of religious orders and other
church property in the Philippines, and
laying the basis for a settlement of the
many property questions which have re
sulted from the separation of church and
state In the islands. Of cours;, nothing
can .actually be done until Congress has
acted, but as the committees of both
houses have acted favorably on the com
mission's recommendation for the pur
chase of the friar lands. It Is thought best
not to lose the opportunity afforded by
Governor Taft's presence In Europe t6
begin the negotiations and make as much
progress as possible, so that they may be
readily ciosed up after Congress has acted,
If It does act favorably. This Is particu
larly desirable because of the mature of
the questions, being such that It is Im
possible to settle them by negotiation with
the friars themselves In the Philippines.
The purchase of the friars' lands Is the
principal thing, and the Government de
sires to accomplish this, If Congress au
thorizes It, amicably.
"There are many other questions, howr
ever, to be settled, such as the rights to
property held for purposes of Instruction
and for charitable purposes, and the right
of the church to land the title to which Is
row in the Government, but on whioh are
buildings for religious purposes. Some of
these matters could be settled by the
courts, but It would require many years,
and it is very desirable to settle them In
a speedy and friendly way. Prior to
American occupation the church and state
were so closely united And their interests
so interwoven that now, when they ara
separated. It Is very difficult to tell to
tvhom the property which was devoted to
their joint uses under the former system
belongs. It is hoped that when. a. full un
derstanding of the claims and views of
each side has been reached and the facts
are fully understood, all the questions ex
isting can be settled In such a way as to
benefit both parties'. The object of this
conference Is to secure the separation of
church and state, and It would seem to be
a condition precedent to such a result.
"Governor Taft's errand Is not In "any
sense a diplomatic mission; it is simply
a business transaction with the owners
of the property. The whole matter Is in
Governor Taft's hands, subject to such
action as may be taken on his report, pur
suant to any Jaw Congressmay pass."
WATER CURE -TESTIMONY. ' . ,
More ex-Soldiers Appear Before the
Senate Committee.
WASHINGTON, May 10. Private Will
iam J. GIbbs, Ninth Infantry, continued
his testimony before the Senate Philippine
committee todaj, giving additional details
about the Balangiga affair. He said he
had never seen the water cure adminis
tered, but had heard the groans of vic
tims. He heard of one death as a result
of the cure. Dirty water and salt water
were used for the cure, which was gen
erally administered by scouts. Mr. Gibbb
said the Filipino women were very virtu
ous. Filipino prisoners and the sick were
treated well, as were the peaceful natives
generally. The orders were to treat them
"with kindness.
George J. Boardman, formerly of the
Twentieth Infantry, said he had never
witiffcssed but one Instance of water cure.
He told how the. natives would open fire
on the Americans and conceal their guns
when the soldiers appeared and claim to
be friendly. He also related the circum
stances of the murder of a Filipino boy
by natives because he was friendly to the
Americans.
The witness also tcld of the conduct of
natives with guns, saying they would flre
at the soldiers, and that when the latter
approached they would conceal their
weapons and greet them pleasantly. In
one instance of this kind a Philippine
party had been taken into custody, and
the information as to the place of conceal
ment of their guns was secured by tak
ing the men one at a time to the rear of
the building and firing off a :gun, after
threatening them with death within the
hearing of the entire party. None of the
men were hurt, but the proceeding had
the effect of so frightening those left be
hind that a confession was secured.
The committee will hold an executive
session Monday to decide upon a policy
to be pursued with reference to the call
ing of witnesses. Some of the members of
the committee are strongly pressing to
have Miss Clcmencia Lopez, sister of
Slxto Lopez, called. This question and
other names will be considered at Mon
day's meeting.
NOTIFY THE WORLD.
Official Announcement of the Birth
of the Nevr Cuban Republic.

Ministers abroad that the military occu

tion on our part to the nations to recog
nize the new republic, but it is expected
that they will take notice themselves of
the fact that the United States has so
recognized the Cuban Republic by sending
to the Island a Minister resident and staff
of Legation and Consuls, and It is not
doubted that the example will be followed.

Remedy, Swamp-Root. . .
VINTON, Iowa, July 15, 1901.
DR. KILMER & CO., Blnghamton. N. T.: ,
Gentlemen: In the Summer of 1S93 I was taken violently 111. My trouble be
gan with pain in my stomach and back, so severe that It seemed as if knives wero
cutting me. I was treated by two of the best physicians In the county, and con
sulted another. None of them suspected that tho cause of my trouble was kidney
disease. They all told me that I had cancer of the stomach, and would die. I grew
o weak that I could not walk any more than a child a month old, and I only
weighed CO pounds. One day my brother saw In a paper your advertisement of
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy. He bought me a bottle at our drug store
and I took it. My family could see a change In mo for the better, so they ob
tained more, and I continued tho use of Swamp-Root regularly. I was so weak and
run down that It took considerable time to build me up again. I am now well,
thanks to Swamp-Root, and weigh 118 pounds, and am keeping house for my
husband and brother, on a farm. Swamp-Root cured me after tho doctors had
failed to do me a particle of good.

city the largest practice ever known in the history of the Northwest. The
people know them. Their fame has grown in the strong light of intimacy
and permanency. Medical pretenders and bogus healers of every variety
have come and gone, passed in the night, unable to endure the daytime
acquaintance. But with time and intimacy the fame of Drs. Copeland and
Montgomery has grown stronger.
The testimony supporting their practice has come from reputable citi
zens, neighbors, dwellers in this city and residents in this vicinity, and
whose reputation and movements are well known or may be known to all
who care to inquire.
Such testimony is enduring proof that Drs. Copeland and Montgomery
are really curing, not merely helping or relieving, not merely improving
and benefiting alone, but curing the disease.
Read In these cures that are glven-here a part of the record
of that skill. It can cure the disease. It Is doing it every day.
It Is making the sick well and strong.

and for several years prior to her treat

doctoring continually and spent large
sums of money, without receiving any
benefit. In speaking of her cure by Drs.
Copeland & Montgomery, she said:
