One week " $ 15 One month 50 One jear 6 00 MONDAY '. - - - MAY 22, 1899 SOLDIER SOLVES THE PROBLEM. Letters written by the volunteer soldiers, fighting in the Philippines, to their friends at home do not give any support to the Atkinson and .copperheads who are opposing the government's occupancy of its terri tory, says the Walla Walla Union. The bojs who have thus far sustained their government oppose its relin quishment. One Oregon volunteer writes thus: "This is a fine countrj'. We want to keep the Fhilippines. The volunteers here have been in vited home, but the boys do not -want to go. All the boys are will ing to remain until the war is over. I think if the United States will give us each 160 acres of land and guar antee us the title, one-half of Com pany I will be settlers in these islands. We will defend the islands against invasion, beoa-.se they are the most valuable part of any country that the United States ever obtained possession of." Other letters of the same import have come from the volunteers at Manila. In the letter of the Oregon boy, he gives a solution of the prob lem which is a vexation to the anti imperialists. His suggestions open the way to enlghtened civilization, through American influence, Ameri can trade and the expansion of American commerce. Peopled with Americans and American energy and enterprise will be infused in the present population and the islands will become famous in the commer cial world. The German-American who has just got himself into prison in Ger many for applying an offensive epithet in that country to the kaiser will hardly arouse much sympathy in the United States. This person ought to have known, and doubtless did know, that no such liberty to abuse the head of the slate is allowed in Germany as there is in this country. A resident or visitor in a country must obey that country's laws and regulations or take the consequences. The German-American, ItalianAmerican, Russian American or American-American who supposes Tie can abuse kaisers, kings and czars in Iheir own country with the same impunity with which he can denounce or lampoon presi dents in the United States must be a very innocent or a very ignorant individual. Mr. Howells, the author, is op posed to war or the shedding of blood in any form. In fact, he is the most conspicuous non combatant in the literary world. He has never permitted anybody, to be killed in Lis stories, except in one instance, where a young, man drifted accident ally into a riot and was found dead before the author could extricate iiim. From the excoriations given W. J. Bryan by the leading speakers at the National Reform Association and the reorganized committee of the peoples party, it is 'evident that his popularity in 1896 has turned to hate in 1899. Sandy Hook's big gun, to be mounted next September, is fifty feet long and fires a 2400-pound shot with the ramming force of a big bat tleship going fourteen miles an hour, It is the most powerful gun yet con structed. A $10,000 banquet will do Dewey ho good. His stomach is already out of order and will have to go into dry dock for the next six months. The Best in the World. We believe Chamberlain' Cough Remedy is the best in the world. A few weeks ago we suffered with a eevere cold and a troublesome cough, and having read their advertisements in our own and other papers we purchaeed a bottle to see if it would effect us. It cured us before the bottle was more than half used. It is the best medicine out for colds and coughs. Tue Herald, Andersonville, Ind. For sale by Blake- ley & Houghton Druggists. An Epidemic of Whooping Cough, Last winter during an epidemic of whooping cough my children contracted the disease, having eevere coughing spells. We had used Chamlerlain's Cough Remedy very successfully for croup and naturally turned to it at that time and found it relieved the cough and effected a complete cure. John E.
