The president's message asks congress to authorize tLe administration to Uke measures to secure the termination o hostilities in Cuba, to secure the estab 1 lishmentof a stable government there! and to use the military and naval forces of the United States, if necessary, for this purpose. ' Tbe president says the only hope for .relief from a condition which can no longer be endured is the enforced pacifi cation of tbe island. The issue is now with congress, and he awaits its action, standing prepared to carry out every ob lirfatoin imposed on him by that body. Spain's decree for a suspension o! hos tilities is submitted to congress for just and careful attention, with the observa tion that if the measure attains a success- fal result, "then our aspirations as a! peace-loving people will be satisfied If it fails, it will be only another justifi cation of our contemplated action." The Maine-iacident figures prominent I in the message. The president argues that the wreck of the maine in Havana harbor shows that Spain is not able to guarantee security to foreign vessels. Spain has offered if submit to arbitra tion all differences whicn may arise from that affair The president .expresses the view teat recognition of the independence of Cnba at Uis time would be ill-advised axd nwarranted and unjustified, and cites precedents to sustain his attitude, call ing attention particularly to President Jackson's lelneal to recognize Texas when that slate was straggling to throw off the Mexican yoke, and quoting Jack eon's utterances on that occasion. School Superintendents and the American Book Company- - Eorron Democrat. Oregon dcjb 9$ par cent of its school books from the American Book Company, and pays from 30 to 40 per cent more for them than oth er states. The contract between Oregon and the American Book Company will expire in January, 1901 . A new contract will then be made with eome publishing bouse. It will will be baeed on the adoption o; text-books to be made, hi 1900. The 9 members of tbe elate boaid of examiners and tbe 32 connty superintendents then ia office, will vote on books offered by different publishing houses for adoption. The state hoard of examiners will be appointed by the superintendent of pub lic instruction to be eiecUd in lone of the present year. Of tbe 41 votes to be east at tbe adoption, 21 are necessary to a choice. If the American Book Com pany can control 9 votes by securing tbe appointment of men on the state aboard I examiners friendly to it, but 12 ad- . ditioual will be required to give it a mo nopoly of tbe school book trade ot Oregon for six years more. "" Under tbe foregoing conditions, nom inating conventions have an important duty to perform. . No man should be nominated for superintendent of public instruction who is not avowedly opposed to the American Book Company. Its bold on echool patrons of Oegon is a grtevona burden from which they should be relieved as soon a possible. The opportunity for relief will be through tbe next adoption of text books. Every candidate fjr tbe office of su perintendent of public instruction should be required to declare to the onventicn openly and in terms that cannot be mis understood,, that be ia opposed to tbe present echool book monopoly. Will the convention, in tbe interest of school pa trons of Oregon, demand this of all candidate Sj Spain's navy is numerically troeger than ours.

Spain ra ikrs a far better showing in tne smaller craft, torpedo-boats and torpedo-destroyers. But her boats of this type are far from our shores. They are divided into two flotillas, one at Cadiz, tbe other in a crippled condition at the Cape Verde Islands. . Mr. C. H. Dodd, of Portland, who re cently failed for a large amount, was one of the gold bugs who declared that pros perity could be only through tbe gold standard. All over the United States these gold standard men, who would have nothing else have be in going to the wall. Tbe Democrat is in favor of sound money, the money of oar fatberr, gold and silver on equal terms, 10 to I, a ratio fatiefactorily established by long usage. Tbe - Dkmocbat is not in favor of a changeable ratio that will compel a man to take a pair of scales along with him, "but is willing to trust the stamp of tbe government for wb atever fluctuating there may be, and it will not te much when the metais are t ate! alik . Washington Letter. , From our regular Correspondsnt Washington, April, 4. 18S)8 Vengeance is at hand. There is to be dent. no more dilly-dlling with lying Span ish diplomats. Uncle Sam is going to Uke Spain across tils knee and give it a tbre'ahingit has bo long deserved at our hands, and the cowardly and danaraiy massacre of our sailors and the destruc tion ot our battleship is to be avenged Even Mr. McKinle is cow convinced that Spain has been playing him diplo matically for no other purpose tlian to rain time. Mr. McKinley acknowledged his failure to secure the independence of OnK. hsrijrit.imacr. and now it is the turn of conaress. A last frantic attempt is being made by the bond-holding ele ment to muzzle congress, but. there is no possibility of Ha succeeding. Congress knows that the patience of the peop'e of ih. onnntn who ul ace national hunor and patriotism above the stock ticker of Wall street has been reached and that the time of action iB at band.and will act and its action will mean war, which the conn try ia now in a position to fight to a victorious end in short order, if it only baa Spain to contend with, and is deter mined to win regardless ot what it, nas to contend with. The French Ambassdor to the U. S. has asked the State Department officially whether there was any objection to his looking after the interests of Spanish subjects in tbe U S after the departure of tba Spanish minister, and has been informed that . there would be done. This action has been regarded as being significant of the intention of France to remain neutral in the war, notwiibstand- ;... mim auMrtiona to tbe contrary. It was added to by acab'earani from Mad- 1& saving that both U French and British ambassadors had tendered Gen. Wood ford, U S Minister to Spain nffra to care for American interests after hie departure from Madrid. Few men poeees the all around com mon sense equipment and teoiperment needed to prevent the man who fills tie position of secretary to the president the man who stands between the presi dent and his callers, and either mates him lots of enemies or additional f ri.ni Tn Lamont was one of tbe few. Mr. J Addison Porter, the gentle man chn IIAtf fills the noaition is not He has made himself the laughing eioek of Washington. A good strong Dottle ol smelling aha is what Mr. J Addison Porter need a great deal more than lie does the republican nomination foi governor of Connecticut, although the democrats o that state wonld probably rrjoice to se s him nominated. His hys terical appeal wil doubtless get any e aims he ever bad to the nomination laughed out of tbe field. If a bill, which has been favoradly re ported to the House, becomes a law, ex Confederate soldier who may hereafter serve ninety days in the U S airay will be entitled to all the benefits provided.' for ex-U 8 soldiers in the act of June 27, 1890, generally known as the "dependent pension act." The bill as originally in troduced merely provided as an induce ment for the fcoiou veterans of the iate war to enlist for ths war ith Spain that enlistment should not operate to stop pensions now being drawn, but the com mittee thought the ex-Confederate vet erans would also make desirable re emits, and it wi amended as above. Anti Trust Candidate . From tbe Salem Journal. H S Lyman, the populist nominee for office of superintendent of public in struction, wasboin at Dallas, Oregon, in 1855. Hie father was the well known ptoneei missionary and educator. Rev. Horace Lyman. H S Lyman was educated in tbe Pacific University at Forest Grove, from which institution be graduated in 1878. Con tinuing his studies, be graduated in 1SS2 fiom tbe Oberlin.Ohio, Theological sem inary. From that time until 1892.be was engaged in various occupations, ... . . r j:, :i among whicn wera teaenmg, tuuuim writing, historical research and preach ing. His knowledge of Oregon history from the Indian legends dewn to tbe present is probably more complete than of any other man in Oregon. He has rritln a laimt amount of history lor publication bnt as it was incorporated in other works it did not appear over his name. In 1892 he was appointed to fill tbe unexpired terra of G C Hall, as county superintendent of Clatsop ' county. In 1894 he was elected to tbe same office on the populist ticket and in 1896 reelected. In both cases he was the only candidate on the connty ticket of the populist party that was elected and in both instances he ran against well known . republican educators. His no blemished record of integrity and devotion tr doty won him tbe confidence and support of all parties, and bis official record will go far towards securing his success in the present cam paign. His connection with the populist party was brought about by political disappointment lor he is not and never has been an office seeker in any other party. ' He baa long been a deep and unceas ing student of eocial :roblsm, a reader ot tbe best literature of ancient and modern lime, and his principles have been acquired by odIv careful, unprf io- diced tbongbt and investigation. A quiet, unssuming man.kind, courte ous in bis manner, ue mates many friends and no enemies. If elected In tbe coming contest, bis well diciplined mind, boneity ot purpose and attention to duty could not bat reflect credit npon himself, the office and bis party. Some one writes in the Salrni States man about Lvman as follows : "I am a life-long republican so do not agree with Mr. Lyman political. y. sti.l I would like to say that I know his life from boyhood, and it has been an earnest, toilsome one, and tbat if he has 'many wneels in bis head' I bey are so finely fitted and adjusted as to assist the balance of tbe machinery 1o wbich tbey belong-to turn out a great amount of ex cellent work during msny years; Ihe moxt importa 't beioit tht those wheels turn above an honest, manly heart, full of sympathy for humanity."

Mr. N. is a man ol great'literary talent but he made one mistake in bis life, viz: lie learned the black-smith trade and wieid- the hammer and btowed the bellows too long ; however he now can wield the pen fully as well as he. did the hammer in former year, and as for the bellows he can perform that act to perfection. He is an able advocate of the gold standard and likes! to defend tbe principles ot Lincoln. He is always ready to tackle the "Free Silver" orators and yesterday he was trying to get up a row with Little Rose Bud of Oakvilje. We wish Mr. Newcome well and it he gets the nomination we will ask the 1 other candidates to withdraw, and we know they wilt. Success to yoa Mr. N Old America- THE PROBLEM SOLVED. THE NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY TESTED. Results of tbe Test ia Various Forms ot Dyspepsia. Chronic indigestion or dyspepsia, while a very common trouble, baa tor some time been looked npon by able physi cians as a serious thing, and - that no time should be lost in treating it proper ly at tbe start, because recent researches have shown that the moat serious, fatal ond incurable diseases have their origin in simple dyspepsia or indigestion. Diabetes la simply on form ot lndi- geetion, the sugar and starchy food not being assimilated by tbe digestive or gaoa. In Bright'e disrate tbe albumen is not properly assimilated. rule consumption and dyspepsia are iwin diseases, ana it is oeyoaa question that dyspepsia makes a ferule sou fir tbe seeds of consumption. Bnt the trouble haa been to find a remedy that could be depended npon to cure dyspepsia, as it ia notoriously ob stinate and difficult to care. This has been tbe question that has pnztled physicians and dyspeptics alike, until the question was solved three years ago by the appearance of a new dyspep sia cure in the medical world known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which it was claimed was a certain, reliable core for very form ot stomach trouble. Physicians, however, would not accept sncn statements without nrst giving tne new remedy many testa and carnally observing result. For three years the remedy has been thoroughly tested in every section of tbe country and with aarpruing and aalia- factory results. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be honestly claimed to be a speciSc, a radi cal laating cure for indigestion in the various forms of acid dyspepsia or eoar stomach, loo much bile, undue fullnees or preeeore after eating and similar symptoms resulting from disordered di gertion. Stuart's Dyepepsia Tablets were not placed before tbe public until this three year's trial left no doubt as to their valne and they have recently been placed in tbe trade end can be found on sale at all drnggiau at the nominal price of AO cents per package. Ko extravagant claims "are made for tbe remedy. It rill not core rheuma tism, pneumonia, typhoid fever nor any thing but just what it is claimed to core and that ia every form of stomach trouble. No dieting- is necessary, eood whole some food and plenty of it and von may rest assured tbat Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest it.
