Tfcs Dalles Daily Chronicle.' SUBSCRIPTION FKICE. One month 50 One year, 6 00 WEDNESDAY JANUARY 18, 1899 CLEAN OFFICEHOLDERS. General Brooke has inaugurated a KVfitpm in Havana which will be a novel innovation in American history appointments to office withont a political pull behind them. The wis dom of his procedure is already ap parent. He has gathered around him in the civil administration of the city men who have the confidence of all classes of islanders, and half the bat tle of placating suspicious Cubans is won at the beginning of his gov ernorship. He is given free rein t choose the most competent men to carry out his reforms and is not hampered by the federal brigade and the horde hungry for pie in the mother country. General Wood adopted the same method in Santiago and has made a model city in six months out of material which was as near hopeless as a municipality can be. How long the administration Trill allow these splendid officers to exercise their unbiased judgment is a matter of conjecture. It certainly , will not be long if there are many $6000 positions to be given out. Perhaps the success of General "Wood in Santiago may eventually effect a change in appointive methods in the United States. It has often been urged that the appointive power be limited to the chiefs of depart ments and the highest offices in the diplomatic and consular service. This has been the aim of civil service re formers for twenty years. What there is of the svstem worked well until professional politicians began their systematic efforts to ruin it, and they are even now attaining that end. But the colonies are not yet under the domination of the wirepullers, and the administration of affairs there may be expected to be clean and as honorable as a regular army officer can make them. If General Brooke aDd General Wood are let alone, there is no doubt of the ulti mate pacification of most skeptical Cubans. If they are hampered by the professional politicians, it will not take Ions to breed great dis content. Allowed by the County Court.

D. : "Was taken with a bad cold which settled on my lungs ; cough set it and finally termi nated In consumption. Four doctors gave me up, saying I could live but a Bhort time. I gave myself up to my Savior, determined if I could not stay with my friends on earth, I would meet mv absent ones above. My husband was advised to get Dr. King's New Dis covery lor consumption, congns ana colds. I gave it a trial, took in all eight bottles. It has cured me, and thank God, I am saved and now a well and healthv woman." Trial bottles free at Blakeley & Houghton's drug etore. Reg ular fize 50c and $1. -Guaranteed oi price refunded.

The more facts that come out in relation to the late Soudanese cam paign the more one finds to admire in Kitchener, the Dewey of Great Britain. An admirable thing about it all is that the British government was quick to appreciate his' merit and has shown its appreciation by giving him practically a free hand in the government of the region. The idea suggests itself that the United States might have shown as great wisdom had it recognized Dewey's merit by giving him a free hand in the Philip pines and done so with the assurance that the trust would not have been misplaced. But Secretary Alger wants an army officer at the head of affairs, so this is not to be. Kitchener's whole campaign in the Soudan, lasting over two years, cost two and a half millions, and at the close he had a railway the first cost of which is estimated at about two millions, though having free labor it does not represent by aDy means that expenditure. In addition he has telegraph lines, steamers on the Nile and large workshops. Kitchener and Dewey ' each possess in a high degree military genius and the ability of administration. Such men are rare. Few of them are born in a century. When one is discovered it behooves a government to make the mcst of him. Great Britain's ex perience has taught her this. The United States may have the knowl edge,. but has not put it into service, being handicapped by members of . the ad ministration. Spokesman Re Tiew.
