there during that month troift Spain
than from the United States. It is
evident that the Spanish are 'not as
fearful cf harsh treatment from the
Cubans, after; thHr own government la
established, as has been constantly re
ported, and also that Americans are
better satisfied with their own country
than Bryan would have us believe.
Europe has decided that It cannot any
longer submit to the presence of us
wicked Americans unless we bear a
duly signed and stamped certificate of
good character. So for the second time
America has been discovered. If Italy
will only cease hatching anarchists or
commence hanging them they will not
come here to formulate plots (.gainst
their mother country. The demand that
persons from America shall be con
stantly exhibiting passports Is absurd
and would jrov entirely Ineffectual

rope of her nnarchlsts.
The statement of th-j chairman of the

of great importance to America as well
as to England and presages an Im
mense development In trans-Atlantic
shipping commensurate with the Impe
tus given shipping on this coast by the
policy of expansion. A line of ten-tliousand-ton
vessels for the transpjr-
tntlon of American coal to Mediter
ranean torts win come In the near
future and will not be the r.nly line
taking our coal to the old world In
enormous quantities.
The discovery of a cure for yellow

velopment of the islands and their Im
mense possibilities as tropical gardens
for the supply of much that we can
not produce. The American govern
ment has done much in Cuba towards
checking this disease and, with a re
liable cure at hand for use where the
disease cannot be altogether prevented,
the greatest drawback which the Isl
ands now suffer will be overcome.
AN ELUSIVE GOVERNMENT.
Chicago Times-Herald.
Among the western powers the Chi
nese puxxle Is greatly complicated by
the question. "-Whom shall we treat
with?" In theory the Chinese govern
ment consists of the emperor. In fact
the emperor has never had 'any real
authority except for a very brief per
iod. His reign began when he was 3 years
old by order of the empress dowager,
Tse An. There was at the time consid
erable dissatisfaction over the choice
In the royal family because of a dis
pute aa to the right of succession.
Kwang Su was not himself th son of
an emperor, but the nephew of one
and the cousin of another, and Ills
father was the seventh in the list of
imperial brothers. Prince Tuan's fath
er, another of the brothers, was old.jr.
and It was charged that the emprc-ss
had preferred Kwang Su because he
was her sister's son. At any rate there
is no doubt that he owed his posit! in
to her mandate.
All through his minority she direct-'
ed the government, and although fie
came of age In 1SS9 It was not until
some time later that he attempted Ms 1
series of reforms,
Then, after a short
season of authority, he was summarily j
suppressed and a decree was issued In
hl nuitu railing .h- .lno-rn.
to power again.
In this document the young man was
forced to say that he wag Incapable
and to beg for the old lady's aid, and
the humiliation was repeated labrr
v hen he was compelled to appoint
FHnoe Tuan's son as his successor.
The decree by which thW appointment
was made Is so curious os to merit
quotation. It reads:
"While yet in our infancy we were
by grace of the Emperor Tung Che
cho.'en to succeed him In the heavy re
sponibllitiPg of the head of the whole
empire, and when his majesty died we
sought day and night to be deserving
of such kindness by energy and faith
fulness in our duties. We were also In
debted to the empress dowager, who
taught and cherjehed us assiduously,
and to her we owe our safety to the
nrtsent day. Now, be it known that
when we were selected to Urt throne
It was then agreed that If ever we
should have a son that son should be
proclaimed heir to the throne. But ev
er since last year (1S98, the year of de
pesltion) we have been constantly 111,
and It was for that reason that In the
eighth month of that year the empress
dowagvr graciously took over the reins
of government In order to Instruct us
In our duties. A year haa now passed,
and still v find ourselves an Invalid;
but ever keeping In our mind that we
do not belong to the direct line of sue
orslon. and that for the safety of the
empire of our ancestors, a legal heir
should be selected to the throne, we
again prayed the empress dowager to
choose carefully from ainong the mem
bers of the lnerlal clan such a one;
ar.d t)Us she has done In the person of
Pu Chun, eon of Tsal Yl. Prince Tuan.
We hereby command accordingly that
Pu Chun, be made heir of the late
Emperor Tung Che."
The concluding sentence reads like an
abdication, but the protests from the
. country were so vigorous that the dow
ager did not carry her scheme that
far. It la evident, however, that her
power is so absolute and that the em
peror Is such a puppet that It will be
Impossible to get at him except by
force.
There was never a more elusive, baf
illng problem. The empress, Prince
Tuan and their associates are known to
be the real leaders of the Boxers, and,
of course, no foreign government wants
any dealings with them. But In their
diplomatic negotiations they hide them
selves behind the name of the emperor,
who is the constitutional head of the
state aud whom they use as they please,
having full power and no responsibility.
It Is exasperating to one who knews
Foley's Honey and Tur, and knows
what it will do. to have a dealer rec
ommend something else as "Just the
same" or "Just as good" for colds,
coughs, croup, la grippe, etc.
American politics consist of the roll
ing of logs, the pulling of wires, and the
laying of pipes
Don't be deceived or humbugged by
people who claim the discovery of
some hitherto unknown herb or root
in swamps, or on some mountain or
prairie, for the cure of kidney and
bladder trouble Any doctor or drug
gist will tell you that such claims are
fraudulent. Foley's Kidney Cure sim
ply contains remedies that are recog
nized by the most skilful physicians
as best for these complaints, so don't
be credulous or foolish
The man with plenty of push Is us
ually successful, but he Isn't in It with
the man who has a pull.
TO STOP A COLD.
After exposure or when you feel a
cold coming on. take a dose of Foley's
Honey and Tar. It never falls to atop
a cold If taken In time.
Rome was not built In a day, but
there were no hustling suburban real
estate boomers In those days.
"I, have always used Foley's Honey
and Tar cough medicine and think It
the best In the world," says Chaa.
Bender, a newsdealer of Erie, Pa. Take
no substitute.
The politicians are always willing to
furnish the bung-hole for the candi
date to build his barrel around.
The editor of the Fordvllle. Ky.. Mis
cellaneous writes as a postcript to a
business letter: "I was cured of kid
ney trouble by taking Foley's Kidney
Cure." Take nothing else.
The young gentleman who seeks a
situation Isn't as likely to succeed as
the young man who hustles a Job.

cers, tetter, eczema and all skin dis
eases You have your money back

All doctors do not practice the faith
cure, though most of them heal by
touch but of course they must live
somehow.
BRIGHT'S DISEASE.
High living. Intemperance, exposure
and many other things bring on
Bright's disease. Foley's Kidney Cure
will prevent Bright s disease and all
other kidney or bladder disorders If
taken in time. Take nothing else.
A prescription Is worth Its weight
in gold to the physician, the drug
gist, and sometimes to the undertaker.
IT HEALS THE LUNGS.
When suffering from a racking cough
lake a dose of Foley's Honey and Tar.
The soreness will be relieved and a
I warm,, grateful feeling and healing of
the parts affected will be experienced.
