Tbe allied forces have reached
Pekin and rescued the missionaries
and ministers. American troops
have penetrated to the very center
the "Forbidden City" were first
to enter the "Imperial City," and
it was an American soldier who
.scaled the walls of Pekin and
-.raised the American flag. While
the eyes of the world are upon
China, it is gratifying to know
.itlaat our hoys are keeping up the
..American gait. How and when
the trouble in China will end can
not be safely predicted. Contrary
to the assertions of the knowing
. ones at the out break of hostilities,
the Chinaman has proven that he
is a very poor fighter, but there is
: a lot of him, and tbe work of
-"pacification" may require months.
Only a few short months ago the
press of the country, regardless of
politics, devoted a great deal of
space to eulogy of Teddy Roosevelt,
"the hero ot San Juan hill." No
republican newspaper could say
,icer things about "Teddy" than
were uttered by the leading dem
ocratic and populist organs. The
country was united then, . and all
,eyes were on the flag and its de
fenders. Hut today "Teddy" is the
candidate for vice president on the
republican ticket and that makes
a difference; that changes him in
the eyes of the Hryanatie press from
.a hero to a hyena and several oilier
kinds of brute. But the ridicule
.and insults are harmless. The un
grateful aud inconsistent element in
the Nation is still in the minority.
As we were saying, if 16 to i is
"a dead issue," as many of his sup
porters assert, why did Uoss Bryan
insist that it be a part of the demo
cratic platform? If 16 to i is "a
.back number," Bryan must also be
so classified. The argument that
Bryan's rejected hobhy can .never
work iujury to tbe country, even if
he js elected, is unsound. The peo
ple turned down Bryan and 16 to i
in iSo6, and the same reason exists
tor repeating the good net.
The Cosmopolitan Magaziue for
August is an unusually interesting
number of this popular monthly.
An illustrated article on "The
Puris Imposition," l.y William T.
Stead; "Willi Boer and Briton,'"
by Frank R. Roberson, and other
high grade contribution! combine
to make it a very desirable compan
ion in a shady spot on a Bummer
day. The Cosmopolitan is a great
magazine.
F.x-Senator VetYer of Kansas,
famous for his whiskers and pop
ulism, is another returning prod
igal. In explanation of his change
ot heart, he says; "IJconomy.
justice good, government and hu
manity, cver,y good impulse and
every just and righteous consider
ation demands that we do not
change the policy of the Administration."
And now back to the fold comes
Senator Stewart of Nevada. Four
years ago he donned tears, sack
cloth aud ashes and left the lepub
lican party because it wouldn't em
brace free silver and i6toi. Senator
Teller of Colorado will soon be
feeling pretty loucjome.
You don't hear much about Ad
lai Stevenson these days. Adlai,
you know, is Mr. Bryan's running
mate.
"Honesty is the best policy."
quotes the Milton Eagle, and then it
proceeds to steal an editorial from
Tub Leader.
Candidate Bryan is still scolding
the trusts that is, some of them.
The big ice trust, fostered by his
Tammany supporters, still con
tinues to evoke his profound sileuce.
James Boyd, the only democrat
who was ever elected governor of
Nebraska, refuses to support his
fellow-citizen, William Jennings
Bryan. Boyd is a very popular and
influential democrat, and his bolt
is significant. Bryan's chance of
losing his own state is much better
than 16 to i.
Henry Hoffman, who lived near
Hazelton, Pa., died a few days ago,
aged 105 years 2 months and 2 days.
It is asserted that he never used
medicine, tobacco uor intoxicating
liquors. If Mr. Hoffman hadn't
been too stingy to take a little for
his stomach's sake and employ a
good physician, he might have
lived Lo a ripe oid age.

"I had a severe attack of bilious
colic, got a bottle of Chamberlain's
Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem
edy, took two doses and was en
tirely cured, 'L says Rev. A. A
Power, of Emporia, Kan. "My
neighbor across the street was sick
for over a week, had two or three
bottles of medicine from the doctor.
He used them for three or four -.lays
without relief, then called in an
other doctor who treated bun for
some days and gave him to r !ief,
so discharged him. I went over to
see him the next morning. lie said
his bowels were in a terrible fix,
that they had been running off so
Jong that it was almost bloody flux.
I asked him if he had tried Cham
berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy and he said, 'No.' I
went home and brought hi;rj my
bottle and gave him one do.-c; told
him to take another dose in fdteen
or twenty minutes if he did iiot find
relief, but he took no more a, id was
entirely cured." For sale by 0. 0.
