TIE HrcANAOIAN CAMPAIGN

MONTREAL, Quebec, Feb. 2S-The Cath
olic clergy have entered into the electoral
campaign with as much political bias and
vituperation as the laity. The hierarchy
is being divided into two distinct camps,
the cardinal, at the Quebec Laval uni
versity, and his followers being opposed 10
Sir John, while the Monsiegneurs of
Three Rivers, Montreal and other dloceses
are actively supporting him.
Archbishop Fabre's recent pastoral IN
favor of British connection and de-
nounciGg Unrestricted reciprocity a. a
road to annexation has raised the ire OF
the Quebec Liberal clergy. 1t is said on
the authority of one of the professors OF
the Normal school at Quebec that this
pastoral as well as Bishop o Brlen s
letter, in which he espoused the cause of
Sir John Thomson in Nova Scotia, Is now
on the way to Rome to be submitted TO
the propaganda.
The same authority says that numerous
bishops and priests have been severely
disciplined by the cardinal for using I'M
due influence in the campaign

United States and Canada. Senator oher-
man writes it will be impossible N tie
crush of the closing days TO act upon the
resolution, and thinks In the face OF the
Canadian campaign auy action might be
misunderstood. He thinks that cordial
commercial relations would be Of mutual
interest, but that al that the friends OF
reciprocity can properly do Is TO express
the willingness Of the people OF the United
States to edter into such engagement wAea
the people of Canada are also willing.

DEATH OF SENATOR HEARST.

WASHINGTON. Feb. Ex-senator Hearst.
of California, died at $40 o'clock tonight.
George Hearst was born in Franklin
county, Missouri, September 80. 1920. His
father had gone to that state from North
Carolina in 1919. The son received only
the limited education that the common
schools afforded in that day. He worked
on his fathers farm until 1850, when he
caught the gold fever and went to Cali
fornia For several years he was miner
and prospector, and subsequently, by
location and purchase, he became the
owner of valuable mining interests and a
large employer. The increase of his
wealth was steady and rapid, and for
some years past his income has been
something like $1,000 per day. His fortune
at the time of his death was estimated at
$4,000, eco He was appointed United
States senator in 1885, to fiji the vacancy
caused by the death of United States
Sena' or John f. Miller. He was reelected
in 1887 by the California legislature
which was then Democratic. and his term
would have expired in 1888. His death
gives the Republicans, in their turn, the
same advantage which the death OF Sen
ator Miller gave the Democrats.
Senator Hearst had been i'll for a long
time with Il complication OF diseases, re-
sulting primarily from serious derange-
ment of the bowels. There was change
lot the worse IN MS cOnultlou Gay OF lNo
ago, and he grew weaker and weaker un-
til about O'Clock this evening when he
passed into a state of coma. and Mrs.

PENSION EVIDENCE.

WASHINGTON, Feb 2S-Tbe commits
sioner Of pensions has replied to Judge
Caldwtll'S resolution calling upon the
pension office to report what rules of evl-
dence are recognized by the office which
govern examiners in the adjudication a of
pension claims, and also what is the force
and effect given to lay testimony when
unsupported by medical or record testi-
mCmy. In his letter 10 congress the COM
III issioner says:
I'm cases where q disability, wound or
disease is alleged to have been incurred in
service, the most important evidence is that
furnished by the hospital records and state
ments from the surgeon who had charge of
the case. In its absence, the affidavit of the
commanding officer or that of comrades
is accepted Where a disease is alleged to
have been the result of army service. the
first and best evidence is that of the attend
ing physician. Wanting that the affida-
Wits of neighbOrS or others having knOwl-
edge of the facts, is accepted as sufficient.
1t is not the intention or rule in this bu-
reau to give undue weight to record or
medical evidence, and little weight to lay
testimony. but the impossibility of fixing
an infexible standard by which to guide
an examiner in his work must be readily
seen, I'D something must be left to his
discretion and ability.
There are no doubt cases, perhaps many
in the aggregate, where an examiner does
not properly weigh and apply the evidence
furnished but it is the intention of the
commissioner to reduce such cases to the
minimum.

TIE pARFNT OF INSOMNIA

The parent of insomnia or wakefulness
is in nine cases out of ten a dyspeptic
stomach. Good digestion gives sound
sleep, indigestion interferes with it. The
brain and stomach sympathizes. One of
the prominent symptoms Of a weak state
of the gastric organs is a disturbance of
the great nerve entrepot, the brain. In
vigorate the stomach, and you restore
equili 1rium to the great center. A most
reliable medicine for the purpose is Hos
letters Stomach Bitters. which is far pre-
ferable to mineral sedatives and powerful
narcotics which, though they may for II
time exert soporific influence upon the
brain, soon cease to act and invariably in
jure the tone of the stomach. The Bitters,
restore activity TO the operations of that
all important organ, and their benficent
influence is reflected in sound sleep and a
tranq il state of the nervous system. A
wholesome impetus is likewise given to
the action of the liver and bowels by its

Act in England-Notes

BERLIN, Feb. os.-The emperor's wrath
at the failure of the visit of Empress Fred
erick to Paris to establish in some sort
good feeling between Germany and France
has fallen upon both Chancellor Won
Caprivi and Count Won Munster, the Ger
man ambassador at Paris; upon the former
for advising the trying of the experiment,
and upon the latter for asserting to the
empress prolonged stay. There are
rumors that Won Caprivi will be ousted
from his position and that Count Won
Munster will be recalled. Count Won
Munster certainly will rot long remain at
his present post, nor will NJ. Herbette
whom the emperor now regards with such
aversion rs to Justify NJ. Ribot in recalling Z
him. The emperor as soon as he perceived
that crisis was impending, sent a tele-
gram summoning Gen. Count Won Wal
dersee from Altoona, where he was sta
toned after his removal from the position
of chief of staff. Nobody doubts that his
visit had reference TO the situation.
NJ. Herbette, probably under lnstruc-
tions from the French foreign minister,
requested an audience with the emperor to
express his personal regrets at the treat
ment Empress Frederick received at Paris.
The emperor replied that unless NJ. Her
bette had An official communication to
offer, he need not trouble himself to have
an audience. The character of the re-
SponSe IS interpreter IN oInClal quarters as
pointing to the emperOr's determination

Despite Bismarck's refusal to stand as a
candidate for the reichstag, Herr School. a
prominent National Liberal member, asks
the electors to return Prince Bismarck,
declaring that he will not refuse to serve
now that there is prospect of crisis in
Germany's foreign affairs. The district
committee is arranging for Bismarck S
election.
This Paris incident is triumph for
Prince Bismarck The Hamburger n ach-
richten holds that the Frenca outbreak
vindicates the Bismarckian system. and
advises the emperor to return to the old
policy, which regarded France as an in
appeasable enemy The well-grOunded
criticisms of the Bismarckian press will
not tend to allay the emperor's irritation.
