Those who are familiar with the
character of the so-called testimony
which paramount" Blount took and
with the situation in the Hawaiian
Islands, say that very large portion
is worthless.
Mr.. Blount is reported to have re-
fused to take the testimony of repre-
sentatives of the best interests on the
islands. One who knows Mr.. Blount
well says: "He was told at the out
set that Mr.. Stevens of Maine, the
venerable Minister at Honolulu, was
a Yankee. 1t was enough for Mr..
RIount, with his narrow and bigoted
views, to know that q Yankee was
connected with the enterprise to as
sert that that enterprise was corrupt.
Mr.. Biount entered upon his uncon-
stitutiOnal task as paramount COM
missioner with the belief that the
Harrison administration with regard
to Hawaii had been determined by
iobbery. His course as paramount
commissioner, and subsequently as
ambassador, was controlled by the
desire to make it appear that his
theory as to job was correct. Mr..
Rlountis report and the eX parte AMI
dayits which accompany it are to be
read in that light. His work was the
work of a special pteader. He was
given a theory end was expected TO
make a state-i1ent of pretended facts
which would support that theory.
That Is the governments case as pre-,
saItsd i'm the report and pretended
tostimouy of Paramount Blount,
- tbat IL all there is of it,
There are indications that If the
President shall decide that his Ha-
waiian policy is to be a failure he Will
seek to hold Paramount Blount
and Secretary of State Gresham res
ponsible for it.
The President is cold and bloodless
i'm such matters. There is no member
of his Cabinet and no member OF his
narty in or outside of his Cabinet
whom he would not sacrifice to save
his administration Osfo promote his
own interests. In that respect he Is
neither just nor generous he Is anu
ALWAYS has been extremely selfish.
There are already indications that
the President has selected Blount and
Gresham as the men who are to be
held responsible for the failure OF the
Hawaiian policy and the embarrass-
ment of the administration, when by
his slow methods he shall arrive at a
conclusion that the fruitless attempt
to restore the degraded monarch As
made United States diplomacy the
sneer of the world.
But Judge Gresham and Para
mount Blount have friends. 1t Is
not so certain that the friends of Mr..
BIount will make much of a contest
in his behalf for fourth class post
offices appear 20 have destroyed the
viriIity of the Southern political
character. But the friends of
Judge Gresham will not remain

Cholera infantum, under which
title many cases OF indigestion are re.

he showed tho reporter q recent

appeared that this disease was pre-
vsntable by the use OF lactated food.
Hundreds OF physicians prescribe
this lactated food for their little pa
tients at the beginning OF summer,
with the assurance that the dread dis
ease will not appear in that family.
Thousands OF mothers have testified
to the fact that lactatad food has
done what nothing else could do
saved the lives Of their little ones.
No better evidence can he offered OF
Its superiority than the many lnstan.
ces In which fretful, peevish, and
sleepless babies, as soon as put upon
lactated food, sleep all night and wake
up laughing. Tho happy change, ply.
slcinns say, is solely due to the su,

ties OF this food.
1t must he born In mind that lucta-
