The Dalles' Daily Chronicle, SUBSCRIPTION PKICB. One week $ 15 One month . 50 One year 6 00 SATURDAY - OCTOBER 22, 1898 France is engaged in making active war preparations for the preservation of the peace. McKinley is a popnlar man in the best sense of the word. His popu larity rests upon pure character and high capacity. He leads the people because he understands them and glories in being one of them. "When last the Oregon was headed lor the latitude of Brazil she kept a sharp lookout for the Cape "Verde fleet. It is reasonably certain now that she would have whipped them all and placed herself at the head of immortal ships. On December 1st, 1898, the hold of Spain upon America is to be relin quished. Columbus did the best he could for the glory of the Spaniards, but they were not equal to the task of governing the new world, nor 'much of Europe. Some of the Democratic papers are afraid that the American troops in Cuba will tend to bring about an nexation by military force. Demo cratic distrust of a soldier is not justified by anv thing in our history. It is a peculiarity as yet unexplained. It is figured out in Madrid that the war cost Spain $600,000,000, which is about the size of the Cuban debt we are invited to pay, at least in part. Spain was too proud to sell Cuba without a war, and a fine op portunity to do something practical was lost. The sentiment among the farmers of the west is almost unanimous on the point of American retention ot the Philippines. They have the wis dom to see that expansion in this direction means a constantly increas ing demand for the products of west ern farms and fields. A noble monument is to mark the resting place of James G. Blame. Xet a nobler monument to his memory is the acceptance by the American people of the doctrines which he expounded during the last years of bis lite. Were he alive to day there would be no doubt as to bis position on the question of the territorial expansion and commercial pre-eminence of the United States. Dewey has already a powerful fleet, but when the Oregon and Iowa arrive at Manila he will have the strongest squadron in the Pacific ex cept England's and Japan's. Of course there is no menace to any foreign nation in this circumstance. It simply means that the United States is going to get all of the Philip pines, and is going to hold them. Spain is virtually dispossessed of them already. If the United States let go the insurgents would overrun the whole of them. Spain's authority in them is broken. Nor will she be permitted to sell or donate any of them to any other nation. The United States has a prior claim on them, and this will be recognized by the Spanish peace commissioners. It has doubtless been noticed that the longer President McKinley has been in the West the stronger are his expressions on the territorial expan sion question. "A most blessed country we have," he remarked in his address at the Merchants' Ex change at St. Louis, "and resting up on us, and upon all of us, is the duty of maintaining ic unimpaired while carrying forward the great trust of civilization that has been committed to us. We must gather the just fruits of the victory." These are words of .Visdom. The "great trust of civili .zation that has been committed to. us" or one of the great trusts is the necessity for us to give the Fil ipinos a good deal better government than that of Spain which has been overthrown. To "gather the just fruits of the victory" we must, among other things, take the whole Philippine archipelago under our con trol. Deatnesa Cannot be Cared by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eus tachian Tube. When this tube is in flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is en tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed for ever; nioe cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous sur faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cared by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars ; free. F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O.
