WAS INDUCED
TO REMAIN
Governor Allen, of Porto Rico, Will Not
Resign At the President's Request
Bermuda's Flowcr-Growing In
dustry May Be Transferred to the
American Island.
Washington, April 0. Charles II.
Allen, governor of Porto Rico, who ar
rived in Washington today, had an hour's
conference with President McKinley.
Great interest was manifested in Gov
ernor Allen's visit on account of minors
that have been rife ever since he sailed
from San Juan that it was his intention
to relinquish his post in the island.
After the conference, however, Gov
ernor Allen announced that lie would
not resign and would return to his dutieB
about thu first week in May, after settling
up some private affairs in Boston. It iB
pretty well understood that Governor
Allen came to Washington in the hope
that the nreaident would relieve him of
his duties in Porto Rico and that lie
aeked the president to do so, but the
president prevailed upon him tocontinue
at the head of the administration of the
afl'dirs of tho island. Governor Allen
enjoys the confidence of the president to
a very high degree, and lie felt that it
was his duty to accede to the wishes of
the chief executive.
Speaking about the affairs of the island,
Governor Allen eaid that the situation
had improved very materially in every
wey since he became governor over a
year ago.
"The civil government established in
Porto Rico," Governor Alien said, "is
working smoothly. The. various depart
ments have been organized und our ad
ministration ia seemingly giving general
satisfaction. In a material way there
baa been wonderful progress. Most of
the ground, which was not under cultiva
tion under the old regime, is being
taken up and being made profitable.
There is a great field in the island for
products that can be shipped to the
the United state?, especially orangeB and
other fruits. The advantages possessed
by the Porto Rican fruitgrowers, on ac
count of the discrimination in their
favor as far as tarlfl duties are concerned,
which will be increased when all duties
are removed July 1st, cannot but result
in making it a great fruitgrowing country.
Recently, persons who are interested in
the growing of lilies and other flowers,
as well iib onions and potatoes in Ber
muda, have been looking over the island
with a view to transferring to Porto
Rico the agricultural industries that
have made Bermuda famous. A faint
idea of what this would mean to the
islauds can be gathered from the fact
that last year this country imported from
Bermuda 400,000 bushels of onions alone.
"In the old established industries in
Porto Rico there has been a great im
provement in all except the coffee-growing
and production. Unfortunately, this
is languishing at the present time. The
production of sugar has been increased
from 40,000 tons la6t year to probably
100,000 tors estimated for this year. The
sugar industry is bound to flourish, ow
ing to the tariff discrimination in its
favor. Upon the crop estimated for tliie
year the Porto Ricans will save $3,500,-
000 in tariff duties. The orange industry
is being increased by the investment of
Americans. The fruit is delicious and
there is plenty of land to be had for the
cultivation of orauges.
You will waste time if you try to cure
indigestion or dyspepsia by starving
yourself. That only makes it worse
when you do eat heartily. You always
need plenty of good food properly di
gested. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is the
result of years of scientific research for
something that would digest not only
some elements of food but every kind.
And it is the one remedy that will do it.

Yes, August Flower still has the largest
sale of any medicine in the civilized
world, Your mothers and grandmothers
never thought of using anything oIph for
indigestion and biliousness. Doctors
were scarce and they seldom heard of
appendicitis, nervous prostration or
heart failure, etc. They used August
Flower to clean out the system and stop
fermentation of undigested food, regu
late the action of the liver, stimulate the
nervous uud organic action of the sys
tem, and that is all they took when feel
ing dull and bad with headaches and
other aches. You only need a few doses
of Green's August Flower, in liquid
form, to make you satisfied there is
nothing serious the matter with you.

Whatever a range ought to do, it ought to do well. To bother with one that
is diflicull to manage, that is liable to get clogged up, or has an unfortunate habit
n( doing exactly what you neither want nor expect, is u mistake. The CHARTER
OAK is a model ot what a range should be. it needs very little fuel, is easily
kent in order, is an ornament to the kitchen, and its durability is remarkable.
What is perhaps more to the point, it can be had for a reasonable price. A poor
range is a nuisance ; a good one a luxury. You can avoid thu nuisance and ineuro
the luxury by purchasing a Charter Oak Steel Range.
We make no empty claims regarding tho superiority of our Ranges, We uea
the material and do the work, that shows the (liiallty. We guarantee the operation.
