Dyspepsia q National Charac-
teristic.

Some observer has truly said that we are
a nation of dyspepsics. Bishop Still, more
than four hundred years ago, wrote two
lines which might be adopted as motto by
the majority of our native-born citizens:
cannot eat but little meat.
My stomach lie not good.
Many of our national characteristics, and
more particularly some of our New England
traits. may with extreme probability be
ascribed to this cause. The witchcraft delu-
sions, prosecutions of Quskers. Blue Laws.
general religious intolerance, and antipathy
to mince pies of our Puritan ancestors may
well he attributed to the torpid livers and
acid stomachs of confirmed dyspeptics and
the resulting mental conditions to which
such are subject. Daniel Webster says of
them:
In regard to the moral character gener-
ally of our ancestors, the settlers OF New
England. nv opinion is, that they possessed
all the Christian virtues but charity and
they seem never to have doubted that they
possessed that also. And nobody could ac-
cuse their system or their practice but of
one Nace. Anu utat y Ss fehkious hS ptOSftsy.
Of which they had an infusion without ever
being sensible Of it.
But for chronic dyspepsia, physical and
mental. the character Of the sturdy sub
daers Of the wilderness would have lacked
even these very human blemishes. The
popular conundrum. SIS life worth living:7
must have been originally propounded by a
victim of dyspepsia which is the prolific
source of all forms of intellectual crank
ness. and infests its victims with the dis

The complete dying out of once appsr-
ent desire, of a more or less limited extent
to annex the Sandwich islands to this
country, Is a feature that can hardly fail to
attract attention. The public has fully ac-
qniesced in the disposition of President
Cleveland to treat this subject in states
manlike spirit it has welcomed this action
on bis part with a calm unanimity that is
encouraging .-Boston Herald, March 29th.
We reproduce the above to show the ex-
tent to which the Mugwump worshipers of
Grover Cleveland are willing to pervert
facts and misstate public sentiment in orier
to bolster up his official acts. There has
never been time when public sentiment ,ir-
respective of party was more heartily in ia
vor Of the anne ration of the Ssndw ich islands
than II Is today, or when there was a more
sary delay which is seriously jeopardizing
American interests there. In his dealings
with foreign countries President Cleveland
has rarely failed to be weak where he should
he strong, temporixing where he should be
prompt, vsciilatiug where he should be arm.
1t Was largely the humilisting weakness
of his first administration, in deal
ing with foreign powers that was large
" responsible for It's reputation at the
polls. II was an administration lacking
alike in asscrtiveness and in Amerieanism.
The American people are not nation of
towards and they will not look with favor
upon an executive policy that gives fertiZn
powers any such impression. The power
that possesses the Haw siian islands holds the
key to the Pacific. All admit this. What
power 10 there which has interests on the
Pacific sea-board that can begin to compare
country We have another and = supreme
reason for not permitting these Islands to
pass into the possession of foreign power.
10 the fact that about three fourths of their
total valuation is the property Of Amer
lean citizens. Any clap trap that Mug
vump papers may see fit to resort to, in
their efforts to find excuses for President
Clevelands proerastinsfins policy. should
not be permitted to obscure this fact We
should also keep clearly in mind the fact
that these islands will never again revcr, to
native rule. They will either become
part Of the United States or of some other
government. = England and Japan are both
ready to secure this coveted prize in case
the United States shall fail to improve her
