a TRIUMPH OF PEACE.

After many months of bullying and
clustering Great Britain has at last
accepted the terms of the United
States to submit the Venezuelan
boundary dispute to arbitration, and
Oscar II, king of Norway and Sweden,
has been chosen as the fifth arbitrator,
while of the other four, the lord chief
justice of England will select two and
the chief justice of the United States
supremecourt will name two.
The happy termination of this dis
pute is indeed a triumph for modern
civilization, and marks and important
period in the march away from the old
time methods of settling controversies
between nations by the resort to arms,
which was the method when kings
ruled the world. More than this, it
establishes the principle that the
powerful shall not wrong the weak;
that even the weakest nation on the
globe shall have it's rights guarded as
sacredly as shall the most powerful.
The nation that has no standing army,
no navy, no Golfers OF wealth with
which to prosecute war, may submit
her grievances to the tribunal of the
world and have her wrongs righted.
This too without bloodshed, bu5 as
peaceably as if it were an action in a
civil court between two neighbors. In
short, it is the establishing of pfin-
ciple that nations must be neighbors,
and if one, though powerful, seeks to
encroach upon another because it is
weak, there are other neighbors who
will interfere and insist that justice be
done.
Less than a year ago, when this
matter was first brought to public
notice, few believed it could be settled
peaceably. The people of both Eng
land and America were aroused to
high pitch ofexcitement by the critical
situation the boundary dispute had
percipitated. When President Cleve-
land issued his message insisting that
the Monroe doctrine must be observed,
and that England should not encroach
upon American soil, war seemed almost
inevitable, but the stand taken by the
president met with patriotic response
in the hearts of Americans, and the
British government began to realize
that to longer refuse friendly arbi-
tration with little Venezuela was dam
gerous, when the people of her big
sister to the north were ready to back
their president in his demand that
justice be done.
Aside from the fact that this dis
pute is to be amicably settled, and
that the proudest and most insolent
nation on earth has been forced to
recognize the rights of others, without
first having spilled the blood of brave
men, this peaceful settlement of a
serious question is a most important
historical event, and is full of 'pfomise
for the future. 1t is great achieve
ment of diplomacy. and a grand
triumph for peace, right and justice,
for it marks the lines on which like
disputes must and will be settled in the

come-Tax Law.
ROCHESTER, N. Y, Nov. 12.-The
general assembly of the Knights of
Labor today passed q resolution de-
claring for the enactment of a grad
uated income-tax law Failing to pro-
cure this at the hands of the next con-
gress, it is the declared intention of
the knights to use all their influence
to have demand for such tax iucor-
porated into the platform of one of the
great political parties, and if they fail
in that, there will in all probability be
an effort made to set up new political
party.
Resolutions have been offered in
favor of the initiative and referendum;
opposing the issue of national bank
notes, and declaring that all money
should be issued exclusively by the
national government.

We live in country of which the
principal scourge is stomach.trou BILE.
1t is more widespread than any
other disease, and, very nearly, more
dangerous.
One thing that makes it more dam
gerous is that it is SO little understood.
II it were better understood, it would
be more feared, more easily cured, less
universal than it is now.
So, those who wish to be cured, take
Shaker Digestive Cordial, because it
goes to the root of the trouble as no
other medicine does. The pure, harm
less, curative herbs and plants, of
which it is composed, are what render
it so certain and, at the same time, SO
gentle cure.
1t helps and strengthens the stomach
purifies and tones up the system.

Am Incrensed Approprlation.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-Estimates
for the entire Indian service for the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1898, to be
submitted to congress at the opening
of the session, call for an appropria-
tion of $7,29O,O0O in round pumhers.
This is 100000 more than the appro-
priation for the current fiscal year.
The increase is due to the policy of
the government adopted at the last
session of congress to abolish grad
ualIy contract Indian schools, and
place all the Indian schools absolutely
under government control. Half the
number of Indian pupils are now at
tending contract schools. but all are
required to be in the regular govern
ment schools within II months from
the end of the present fiscal year.

II am told that the attitude of Eng

that island, and she also knows that
she will not be allowed by either Eu'

cbancellors of Europe as to their atti-
tude toward American interference be-
tween Spain and Cuba and has salts
fed herself that no great power will
object to this course.
