    The Gazette.
Thursday, June 29, 1899.
The opinion is growing now that
it Las become certain that Agui
naldo's alleged peace negotiations
were nothing more than a rase to
gain time to prepare for further
CghtiDg, that the staying qualities
of the Filipinos have been under
estimated, and that there is bound
to be much more fighting before
they are permanently conquered.
We whip them constantly, but they
continue to fight. Adjutaut Gen
eral Corbin says he is confident,
however, that when General Otis
gets the reinforcements it has been
arranged to send him, which will
give him a total of 35,000 men, he
will have all the men he will need.
The difference between Cleve
land times and McEinley times is
strongly accentuated by the fact
that Uncle Sam's supply of gold is
getting so large that he can hardly
handle it, and he has been com
pelled to stop exchanging notes
for gold. United States Treasurer
Roberts said on this subject:
"We have, today, about $236,000,-
000 in gold and our vaults are
almost overflowing. The Chicago
sub-treasury cannot receive more
gold, as its vaults are f nil."
Treasurer Roberts has issued an
interesting statement showing the
amount of paper money in circu
lation. The total is $1,222,545,417,
aiviaea into denominations as
follows: oneB, $55,482,479; twos,
$33,830,338, fives; $287,240,622,
tens, $422,311,717, twenties, $22!),
321,226, fifties, $00,934,000, one
hundreds, $58,442,400, five hue
dreds, $15,897,500, one thousands,
$54,797,000, five thousands, $4,930,
000, and in ten thousand noteB,
$10,420,000. In addition there are
thirty odd thousand dollars in
fractional paper currency still in
circulation, although none has
been issued for years
Acting Secretary of War, Meik
lejohn gave a patient hearing to a
committee of Cubans who are in
Washington trying to secure a
modification of the order of the
War Department, granting a post
ponement of the- settlement of all
debts incurred, before last Decem
ber. The order was issued for the
benefit of impoverished planters,
to prevent their land being sold
becaune they could not at once
raise the cash to meet old obliga
tions, but this committee claims
that it is now almost impossible
for planters to seoure loans in
Havana, although there was never
so much idle money in the hands
of capitalists in this city. It is
doubtful whether the order will be
modified, as the matter was very
carefully gone over before it was
iHsuod. The chairman of the com-
mitlee, spoaking of the genera
i i r I t .iiir
niuiHuouinuu.ua saia: we are
much in need of a civil guard in
Cuba, as the island is poorly po
liced. I wish to deny all these
wild stories of disorder in Ilavaua,
as we are getting along nioely and
quietly. You magnify a few
bandits into a great affair, and ye
you forget that you yourselves are
now chasing train robbers in the
west. Again, is a tiff between
Cuban and a Spaniard any more
terrible thau one of your lynch
lngsi Cuba is not such a bad
place, and I hate to soe these stor
ies magnified."

Chicago, 111., Jane 24 The steamer
Virginia left its dock for Milwaukee this
morning with the heafiest load it ever
carried in proportion to tbe number of
its paaiengers. On board was an ex
cursion party of 400 members of tbe
Garden City Fat Men' Club, tbe small
est member of wbiob tipa tbe scales at
240 poooJa. Tbe excursionists propose
to spend tomorrow as tbe facet of tbe
brewers of Milwaukee and expect to re
tarn to Chicago with many pounds rf
addition avoirdupois as a remit of tbe
entertainment tarnished them in tbe
Cream City.
Chicago, III., Jane 19 Germs of ta
beroaloeis were found in every oow of a
herd of ninety-two that were reoeived at
the stook yards today. Tbe ohoioest of
the lot in several instances were found
to be the most pronounced viotims of
tbe disease. In tbe worst oases tbe pnl
monary orsans were one mass of tuber
culosis baooilli. So great was tbe bavoo
played in many instanoes that tbe respi
ratory orsans bad loat many of their
bovine characteristics. Many of tbe in
fected oows were from state institutions.
Portland, June 24 Colonel Thomas
Cornelius, a pioneer of 1845 and one of
the most widely known men in tbe state,
died tonight at his borne in Washington
county. In 1886 be was a candidate for
governor, bat was defeated by Governor
Sylvester Pennoyer. He was veteran
of two Indian wars in tbe northwest, and
in 18(1 raised a regiment in this state to
figbt for the preservation of tbe union.
Clkvkland, June 24 An agreement
between the Big Consolidated Street
Railway Company and its striking em
ployes was reaobed at 6 o'olock this
evening, and it is probtble that cars will
be running as usual on oil lines of tbe
oompany tomorrow. Tbe agreement
provides for the bearing of grievances
and a resort to arbitration in oase tbe
men and the oompany can not agree,
and it a'so provides for the reinstatement
of priotically 80 per oeot of tbe old men
at onoe, tbe remainder, exoept those who
have bean guilty of violenoe, being
placed on tbe waiting list.
Chicago, June 27 A special to tbe
Chroniole from Washington says: A
shell of terifio explosive power with i
capacity to aonhilate by bursting frag
ments and a shook as effective as a streak
of lighting, will be tbe fall campaign in
tbe Philippine islands. Tests of the
charge of this terrible engine of war are
being made at Bandy Book, tbe govern
ment guarding closely its secret of
manufacture. A shell of this nature,
oharged with an explosive equal to
melinte or dynamite, falling near a bat
talion of the enemy wonld kill or cripple
a very large percentage of tbe battalion.
The chances of escape from this tremed
one machine will be decreased 100 times,
experts say, as compared with obrapnel
discharged at tbe same objects.
MODERN VACCINATION.
Rolis the Old Methods of Its Horrors and
Evil Results.
Wild rumors of small pox, are coming
from different directions and pbysioana
generally are on the alert. Oat of six
oases in the Walla Walla pest house but
one is reported aerioua, and tbat is of
the patient James Jodioo, who bas
never been vacoinated, whiob proves ths
importance of vaouioation, which recent
soienoe has perfected so that the serious
annoyance of impure vacoioe matter is a
thing of the past. Instead of the old
method of innocolating witb a scab from
arm to arm, or a bovine crust that bad
been subj'eol to oootamioation for weeks,
the aseptio vacoioe is put up in sealed
capillary lubes, eaob enflioieut for
single vaooination. Tbe purity of this
vaooine is assured by tbe most rigid an
tiseptio aud aseptio measures. The
heifers before balug yaocioated are ex
amiued by tbe beat surgeons and tested
by tuberoulin for disease. In vaccinat
ing, tbe part is first sterilised aud rend
ered aseptio for the surgical operation.
Tbe arm is scarified, the tube opened
and tbe virus plaoed in contact. Thus
all extraneous germs are eleminaled,
and tbe virus alone is oontended with.
Mistrusting tuat the juvenile repre
sentative of the Qazette, Henry Oorlies,
wonld, in bis preambulating, turn np at
WallaWalla, where smallpox is reported,
we subjected bim to the ordeal, in the
presence of a number who went through
the operation a quarter of a century ago,
when they bad to be strapped down, and
tbe young nrchio put their horrors to
Might by offering the other arm, for tbe
pleasant sensation. The rest of tbe
family will indulge at ouoe. Drs. Swin
burne and II unlock have their office at
the Hlooum Drug store, jimmed during
their operating hours, and it is safe to
predict that the disease will get fooUd
in this territory. To avoid a possible
oootagiou here the doctors will vaooi-
nstrt between tbe hours of 1 and 2 D. in.
for 50 oeot per patient.

THE LAST RALLY.
Tbe f'oartb. or July at Lexington-A Great
Time Anticipated.
W. B. MoAlieter and Andrew Baney ,
were in Heppoer Ibis week and inform
us that tbe Lexington grove is being
put in tbe best possible oondition for tbe
celebration at tbat place on tbe Fourth
of July, and no pains will be spared to
mike this the most interesting celebra
tion tbe oounty bas ever knowD. Al
ready tbe stand privileges of the grounds
amount to almoet enough to pay tbe en-
t re expeoee of tbe oelebration, outside
of the prizes. Besides oaeh prizes tbe
merobante of tbe three towns will con
tribute merchandise prizes, from a suit
of clothes to a gimblet, which will insure
every participant in tbe races a prize,
save those who fall down. Complete
arrangements for tbe train service bas
not yet been perfeoted, out a letter from
tbe O. R. & N. assures ns that we will
have cars, and tbe committee will work
for tbe convenience of tbe public. An
drew Baney informs as that be will ar
range to feed and give the best care and
attention to all teams driven to tbe cele
bration. He bas an abundance of feed
and safe and comfortable places tor
horses and wagons, and will have a
a number of men there on tbe grounds
to take charge of tbe teams when they
arrive.
Tbe idle rumor that lone was affeoted
with smallpox is branded by both Joe
Wootery and Dr. Bied as without found
ation. Tbe latest authentic reports are
tbat tbe oase of smallpox reported at
Hood Biver was a oanard, as it is orig
inated in oase of ohickenpox, so tbe
so are outside of Walla Walla is unneces
sary. As it is the disease is entirely
confined to tbat point and we need have
no fear in this part of tbe country. Vao
ination prevents the spread of the de-
ease and robs it entirely of its horrors.
f ollowing is tbe program of races,
whiob will be added to, and value of tbe
prizes.

Js the Steam Locomotive Doomed
Men who know eay tbat in tbe next
ten years steam looomotives will disap
pear and electrio motors wiil supplant
them. Tbey also say that witb tbe new
motive power trains will rosh along at a
minimum speed of 100 miles an hour.
This will prove a blessing to those who
wish to go quickly from one point to
another, but no more so than Hoetetter's
Stomaoh Bitters bas proved a blessing
to those who wish to go quiokly from
siokness to health. Tbe Bitters act
at oooe upon etubbon oases of dyspepsia,
indigestion, biliousness and liver com
plaint. Tbey improve the appetite,
quiet tbe nerves, and introduce sound,
refreshing sleep. Tbe trial of a bottle
will prove oonvinoing proof. Hold at all
drag storee.
NOTICE.
On and after Jane 21th, ell parents of
boys are warded to keep them off and
