desire and expect, and to the accom-
pIishment of which every effort of the
present administration is pledged, but
while tariff reform has lost nothing of
its immediate and permanent i'm
pOrtance, and must in the near future
engage the attention of congress, it
has seemed to me that the financial
condition of the country should at
once, and before all other subjects be
considered by your honorable body.
L earnestly recommend the prompt
repeal Of the provisions of the act
passed July IA, 1890, authorizing the
purchase OF silver bullion, and that
other legislative action may put be-
yond all doubt or mistake the inten-
ton and ability OF the government to
fulfil its pecuniary obligations in
money universally recognized by all
civilized countries.

CONGRESS WILL DEAL WITH
THE HAWAIIAN QUESTION.
The President VIII Recommend Either
Annexation or a Protectorate.

WASHINGTON, August 6.-Today
was very far from being a day of
rest for the president, his cabinet,
the speaker of the house and lead
ers of both parties in congress.
The situation that confronts them
is even more acute than that which
determined the president to issue
proclamation summoning the mid
summer session. Every one, from
the president to the newest mem
Der of congress, is keenly alive to
the fact that the present time is
one of emergency.
When the president arrived yes
terday, strengthened and refreshed
from his outing, he Immediately
proceeded to the executive mansion
and called about him his constitu-
tional advisers. The cabinet meet
ing was not of unusual length, but
was of unusual Importance. The
president submitted to his advisers
his message, which he had formu-
lated at Gray Gables. 1t is under
stood that this document deals
first with the financial question,
and presents at length the reasons
why the Sherman law should be
repealed Internationally. 1t also
takes up, it is understood, the
tariff question, and presents an
array of facts and arguments con-
clusively demonstrating the neces-
sity of giving the people relief from
the burdensome taxation imposed
upon trade, commerce and indus
try by the Mckinley law.
While the Hawaiian question
was a subject of consideration at
the meeting, it is not thought there
will be any recommendations
touching it in the message which
will be submitted to congress on
Tuesday or Wednesday. The mes
sage was practically complete be,
fore Minister Blount's report ar
rived. From the fact that Secretary
Gresham remained closeted with
the president for upwards of an
hour after adjournment of the cabi-
net meeting, it is believed by those
who have closely followed the Ha-
waiian matter that brief adden-
dunn concerning this problem will
be appended to the message, and
that the whole Hawaiian question
will form the subject of special
message to congress within short
time. When this message is sent
to congress it will be accompanied
by Minister Blount's report. It is
given out informally that Blount,
in his report, will recommend the
annexation of the Hawaiian islands,
or the establishment of protector
ate by this country over them.

If you need a lamp for read
ing we can imagine nothing
more suitable in the way of
stand lamps than the decorat-
ed ones we show you, the
shade and stand decorated to
match. The burners are the
best made by the Rochester
people and just the kind to
suit people who do not use
electric lights.
Everybody uses rubber hose
and nearly every one buys it
from US, because they get a
better quality for less money.
For people whose hose is not
damaged beyond repair, we
have the celebrated Kemp
shall' member that makes hose
as good as new, in spots, IN
less time than it takes to
think about it, but for people
whose hose is too far gone to
be mended, we can offer the
best selected stock of hose ever
offered in the city. We also
sell a Hose Reel that keeps
your hose in first-class condi-
ton without half trying.
The red and white glassware
is prettier than half the people
imagine, and part of it is cut
just the same as pieces that
sell for ten times as much.
For lemonade or claret tank
ards there is nothing more
suitable.
Our Haviland China is ac-
knowledged by people who

strong contrast with Haviland,
we have common English
crockery for kitchen, planta-

are made strong enough to
drop ON the floor without
breaking.

A few months ago we called
your attention to these Goods
and to the fact that we would
soon be prepared to supply
you. It's so long since, you
have probably forgotten all
about it.
We had commenced to think
ourselves that the manufac-
turers had mislaid our order,
and on writing to ascertain
the delay were Informed that
the demand was so great that
each order had to be taken in
turn, and ours being away
down on the list, it would take
some time to reach it.
We had these goods made up
in BALBRIGGAN, as they are the
incest and coolest goods to
wear.
In the backs and fronts of
these Shirts, pure, soft wool
has been skillfully woven to
protect the lungs from cold.
To those who cannot wear
all-wool garments, these goods
are a boon.
New and fresh from the
looms, a novelty never before
introduced here, and an absO-
lutte necessity to those who de-
sire to maintain their health.

FINE FARM SOLD.
Eugene Jones Disposes OF His Farm
For $4,000 to Dean Bros.

Eugene Jones has sold his farm,
Az miles southwest of Mexico, to
G. H. Dean & Bros. for $13 600.
This farm consists of $40 acres of as
fine land as shere is in Audrain
county and sold for $40 per acre,
which is cheap enough. The Dean
brothers came to Audrain county
from Boone some two years ago and
we are glad to know they have con-
cluded to make this county their
home. Mr.. Jones is talking of
coming to Mexico to reside, and
perhaps will go into business here.
He is one of Audrain's prosperous
and substantial citizens and we
would be glad to welcome him to
the business circles of Mexico. The
Dean brothers are thrifty and pro-
gressive farmers and stock raisers
and we congratulate them on secur-
ing one of the best pieces of farm
property in Audrain county.

er, Miss Lavinia Roberts, of Pike
county, ILL.,, made a brilliant and
convincing address, continued
Mrs. Wilson, ''proving beyond a
question of doubt that the women of
the nation, if possessed of the lead
ing strings of this country's govern
ment, would bring about a happier
state of things for the mass of Amer
ica's humanity. Miss Roberts is a
lady of much dignity and grace and
a speaker of great magnetism. With
animation and much vigor she an
nounced her pride in the cognomen
now borne by free silver people in
general and Populists in particular
the name of calamity howler,'
stating furthermore that she had
rather be a calamity bowler than
a calamity maker She said she
had been taught never to say any,
thing bad about the dead, but that
the Republican party was response
BILE for many misdemeanors besides
its Shermanism. Her arguments
evinced careful investigation and
thought and her resolutions and
statements were seemingly unani-
mously endorsed by the 5000 peo-
pie assembled. Miss Roberts said
OF course there were some people in
this land of ours who desire neither
to hear or see-they are blind and
deaf to all arguments produced for
their enlightenment, but they will
soon realize that Of which they are
in desperate need-a regular knock
down st. Paul conversion" Mrs.
Wilson Endorsed all the lady orator
said and after complimenting Billie
Bryan, of Nebraska, told her friends
good-by and departed for her home

A SURE THING.
Old Cases OF Malaria Need No Longer
be Invalids.

There is no trying to dodge the
fact that quinine will not always
cure malaria. While it is doubtless
true that large doses of quinine OF
some other derivative of Calisaya
bark will cure more cases of chills
and fever than any other drug, it
is equally certain that In chronic
malaria it is, in a majority of cases,
a flat failure. In every malarious
district there are thousands of peo-
pie who continually take quinine
and yet continually have more or
less frequent attacks of malaria.
These facts need no argument.
Every person who lives in a malar-
ious locality knows them To be true.
A remedy capable of curing these
cases of chronic malaria that qui-
nine will not relieve would be a
great blessing to humanity and
produces a genuine sensation in
medical circles. This is exactly
what the remedy-Pe-ru na-will
do. 1t cures all these old and
stubborn cases of chronic malaria
that have taken q%uinine perhaps
for years without result. A thor
ough course of Pe-ru-na is sure to
remove the malarial poison from
the system.
A publication containing the
latest information concerning the
nature and origin of the malarial
poison and the cure of malaria in
all its forms is being sent to malaria
sufferers in all parts of the civilized
world by The Peru ma Drug Manu-
featuring Company, OF Columbus,
Ohio. 1t will be sent free to any
address for a limited time.
Look for dates of public test of
Corn Harvester. 1t will be tested
