The ancient ceremony of "trooping

brilliant assemblage. All tho troops

Moat of the govurnment oflicea hoisted
the Irish Hag, and the clubs were simi

the green. In the churches the preachers
rtlerred to tho occasion, thanking Frovi-
wice that tho English had learned to
love and respect their Irish fellow sub

The thuttterH were all prepared to mark
the day in the same way tonight.
On the Slock Exchange the enthusiasm

Slavery in Guam General Wheeler
Reported to the Nary Department

Wabiii.noton, March 17. The follow
ing proclamation has beeti issued by the
Governor of the island of Guam :
"To the inhabitants of Guam: In
issuing this decree, the Government de
sires and earnestly invokes Divine bleeB-
iug and guidance in its official action
and in thu daily pursuits and occupations
of the eltizeus of Guam. By the cession
of the Isle of Guam to t lie Uuited States
of America, nil of the authority, power
und responsibility of sovereignty were
transferred to this government, and in
transforming und organizing the new
political power, the surest and speediest
route to success, prosperity ana luippi
uess for the inhabitants of this island is
by benevolent assimilation to tiie funda
mental principals that constitute the
basis of free American government.
"Honest labor, with just compensa
tion, dignified hy faithful consideration
of the mutual inteiestP and welfare of all
concerned, should insure prosperity to
this community ; whereas, the existing
labor-degrading system of human bond
age and unjust, indefinite servitude of
peonage, permitted during tho late
Spanish control in the island, was in
fact a system of slavery, and aB such was
subversive of good government, an ob
stacle to progress, civilization, a menace
to popular liberty and violation of the
sacred provisions guaranteed by the
Constitution of the United States.
"Now, therefore, by virtue of the
authority vetted in 're hy His Excel
lency, the i'resideut of the United States,
I, Richard F. Leary, Captain United
States Navy, Governor of the Island of
Guam, do hereby announce and publicly
proclaim absolute prohibition and total
abolition of human slavery or peonage
in the Island of Guam an end after the
2ld day of February, A. D., 1900, and all
persons are hereby commanded to com
ply with the requirements of this pro
clamation. "In witness whereof, I tiereunto set
my hand and have caused the seal of the
United StateB Naval Station, Island of
Guam to be uflixed,
"Kiciiaud F. Leahy,
"United StateB Navy, Governor."

PA0IFI0 STATES TELEPHONE 00S,
New Yoiik, March 17. Eugene
Brewster, of Brooklyn, who was toast
maMer and chairman of the Bryan dol
lar-dinner, and who has boon probably
the most conspicuous man of the so
called "Chicago-platform Democracy,'
has written a letter to W. J. Bryan, in
which he says that ho cannot support
Mr. Bryan for ttie Presidency, and that
ho now abandons all efforts to "effect
union of reform forces" under Bryan 'i
leadership. Mr. Brewster, in a discus
sion of the general question of trusts and
machinery, says:
"Tho trust question, to which you ore
j devoting most of your attention, involves
the very greatest and really the only
problem that the A met icons have to
solve. Regretfully, you seem to see only
one side of tho case, and, seeing onlv
evil on this side, you would unhesita
tingly destroy the trust, ion do not
Eeern to realize, dear Mr. Bryan, that
the same argument that you apply to
the trust also applies equally well to im
roved machinery, and yet you would not
destroy that. I have carefully studied
the conditions and the many remedies
offered by various parties and factions,
and it seems to me that co-operation-socialism
is the only practical and the
only possible remedy."
Mr. Brewster expressed his discontent
of each of the principal existing political
parties, and announces Ills adherence to
Eugene V. Debs. He tells Mr. Bryan
that with Iub brilliancy and oratorical
powers he would sor n "bring the world
to his feet" if only he would believe and
speak as does Deb?.
II.h I.iro Wan Saved.
Mr. J. E. L'.lly, a prominent citizen of
Hannibal, Mo., lately had a wonderful
deliverance from a frightful death. In
telling of it he save: "I was taken with
Typhoid fever, that ran into pneumonia.
My lungs became hardened. 1 was so
weak I could'nt even 6it up in bed.
Nothing helped me. I expected to soon
die of consumption, when I heard of
Dr. King's New Discovery. , One bottle
gavo great relief. I continued to use it,
and now am well and strong. I can't
say too much in its praise." This
marvelous medicine is the surest and
quickest cure in the world for all tlnoat
and lung trouble. Regular sizes 50 cents
and $1.00. Trial bottles free at Blakeley
& Houghton's drugstore; every bottle
guaranteed.
