Gen. Alger IS the very man who
ought to be at the head of the Michi-
gan delegation. His standing at home
and his very wide and favorable
acquaintance in other states would
put him instantly in touch with the
leaders Of the party everywhere. The
prominence he has had as a presiden-
tial possibility himself would make
him strong factor in the deliber-
ations preliminary to naming the
next president. His name as chair
man of it would give the Michigan
delegation a prominence that it could
not have In any other way. He would
be tpwer ofstrength to give prestige
TO his state. --Ionia Sentinel.

The solid south has dropped out OF
politics. Tuesdays Republican vic
tories in Kentucky and Maryland are
decisive on this point: The Repub-
lican majorities in Missouri, Maryland
and West Virginia last year, and the
practi ally tie vote between the par
ties in Kentucky at that time, was
ascribed to democratic apathy. But
the Republican majoritieo just rolled
up In Kentucky and Maryland can not
and will not be attributed to any
such condition. The size OF the vote
yesterday in both these states is fatal
to any presumption Of this sort. All
the Democrats went to the polls, but
thousands of them voted the Repub-
lican ticket, and will continue to vote
it SO long as the Republican party is
true to its ideals. Globe Democrat

THE CASTINGS ACCEPTED
Over Which Such Sensational Charges We're
Made by the Administration.

Washington, April 29.-The navy de-
partment has accepted the four steel cast
ings for the battle ships made by the
Atcba & Illingworth Co, Newark, N. j.,
which were rejected, with somewhat SEN
sational results, last fall, closely followed
by the arrest of and institution of criminal
proceedings against some of the officials
of the company, on the charge of attempt
ing to defraud the government.
So far as is known, the department of
Justice has taken no steps to quash the
charges, but the navy having accepted the
material on which the proceedings were
based, it Is probable the case will be
abandoned.
The chief Of naval ordnance, in explain
ing the matter, this morning, said that
the dc partment being in urgent need of
the castings and their defects having been
shown to be superficial, accepted them.
These castings arc the piston heads used
to elevate the big guns in TIE turrets of
the battlcships now so near completion.
1t would have BEEN awkward to further
delay the completion of these vessels, and
as the castings were subsequently found
equal to the purposes fot which they were
Intended, it was decided to use them.

fed as to meet the objections of Nicaragua.
1t is understood that these propositions
are the result Of the efforts of the United

President Xelaya, it is believed, will be
disposed to accept the terms outlined in

which exists against the British govern

CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE
Dates Back to Broken Pledges and Contracts
Of the British Company.

Washington, April 29.-The present
trouble between Honduras and Great
Britain had its origin in 1868, when the
British Company was granted concession
to construct a railroad from Puerto Cortes
to the bay of Fonseca, 240 miles. Work
was begun and 60 miles of the road COM
pleted Then $50 600, 900 worth of bonds
were sold and operations abandoned
Since that time the government of Hon
duras has repeatedly attempted to reach
an arrangement with the bondholders to
complete the road.
In the meantime the enormous debt has
been a bar to the country's advancement
and the government has been unable to
even pay the interest The go miles OF
road is now operated by W. 5. Valentine
of New York. who hopes to complete the
read to the Pacific when the difficulties
shall have been adjusted.
A large proportion of the whole COM
merce of Honduras is with the United
States, the imports from this country
for 1891 amounting to ST. 1859, 591, and in
1898, 1864, 912 The exports from Hon
duras were, in 1891, S649, 90 !, and in 1893,
SAT-, 695.
During 1899, there were 943 vessels en-
tered at the ports of Honduras, of which
175 were owned in the United States, and
81 in England.

Make the statement that Sarsaparillas
containing Iodidc of Potassium are I'M
safe to use, excepting under the supervi-
sion Of an experienced physician, and
that their continued use tends to impov-
erish instead of purifying the blood. Al
SO, that in many cases they act as direct
poison and cause serious trouble, defeat
ing the object for which they were taken.
Many of the leading Sar5aparillas were
analysed and found to contain this poi
sonous chemical.
This is an unprecedented statement
made by tho most scientific body of men
in New England and is warming to the
public against the use of dangerous and
injurious medicines.
During the changing seasons while the
blood is thick with accumulated impuri-
ties, the liver and kidneys, which are
filters of the body, are clogged and CON
gested. They are overworked and need
assistance. Sarsaparilla especially Hon

our forefathers as a spring medicine; but
the searchlight of medical investigation
has proved that neither Honduras nor any
other Sarsaparilla has any medical value.

taste of disagreeable medicine.

And the Fun Grows Faster and Warmer Who

Portland, April ga curious state Of
was dispute, last year, over the place
where the pupils should attend school.
The townspeople took exception to the
way the school committee decided the
matter and the i'll feeling was carried oven
to this year.
When the annual March election took
place, last month"; the usual order oil
things did not prevail. OF the three mem
bers OF the school committee, Levi Con
nells term had expired and one new man
was to be elected.
But the people elected three new men,
80 that the committee might consist ui
five members, in order that DIR. Rounds
and Meserve might not control the board.
The three new men elected were DIR. Lord,
John Clarke the towns representative to
the Legislature, last winter, and another
man, whose name is not learned.
Two members Of the Old board, DR..
Rounds and John Meserve, refused to rec
ognize the new men, and appointed
BENJAMIN Knights to fill the board. Then
those three reelected DIR. Rounds to be
SUPERINTENDENT. Meanwhile the three new
men had met and elected John Clarke as
superintendent
Both superintendents have engaged
teachers for the spring term that com
menced, yesterday. Last week, both rep
resentatives sent number Of women to
clean the schoolhouso in Naples village.
DIR. Rounds had the advantage by be-
ing in possession of the keys, but John

schOolhouse was cleaned twice. The fight
is still on and it is doubtful which side
