NEW YORK, Dec. 2S-A Madrid dis
patch to the World says: An evident
ly inspired editorial in the Epoca to-

an understanding between the Spanish
Government and President Cleveland,
has caused profound sensation in
Spain. The Epoca, the organ of the
Conservative party now in power.
says: American intcrve ntion in Cuba
is perfectly logical on the grounds of
material interests and national senti-
ment. 1t might become an inevitable
necessity of American home politics.
and it is eminently to the interest of
our own country to avoid a conflict
while we can do so with honor, main
tanning our dignity and sovereignty.

A Modern Typewriter.
TelepL $50.

Nowadays we demand modern
things. Our great-grandfathers
used quill pens. They were the best
writing implements then. Few
writer's use them now. They are
out-of-date.
To-day a Typewriter is the most
important adjunct in an office equip
ment, There is oquestion about it,
They save time, do the work of
several people.
The Peerless Typewriter
stands out prominently as a modern,
up-to-date machine. Itcombines all
the good points of any machine on
the market, while it has none of the
defects found in other makes.

A NEW YORK STORY.
Big Railway Trust Being Formed in
the Northwest.

New York, Feb. 22.-The Tribune
says: 1t was reported yesterday that
a big railroad trust was being formed
in the northwest by the pooling of in
terests of the Northern Pacific, the
Great Northern, the oregon Short Line,
the Utah & Northern and the Oregon
Railway & Navigation company. 1t
was declared that the reorganization
of the Union Pacific was in the hands
of those interested in the amalgamat-
ing of the roads mentioned, and that
the Union Pacific might be eventually
brought into the pool. These inter-
ests, it was further asserted, were in
complete harmony with the Chicago
& Northwest, the Lake Shore, the
Michigan Southern and the New York
Central. and it would only be mat
ter of time until a trunk line practi-
cally under the control of the Van
derbilts would be operated from New
York to the Pacific coast.
None of those interested in the vari-
Gus roads could be found to talk about
the matter yet, but those allied with
the Vanderbilt interests secuted the
idea that such a combination was be-
ing formed. The majority of the stock
of the northwestern roads which were
being brought into harmony, so it was
said, had beer purchased abroad and
there was no concerted movement TO
form a grand transcontinental COM
bination, as reported.

The following correspondence be-

some, as it touches a point upon which
there have been some queries:

Battle Creek, Mich.-Gentlemen: Re
plying 10 your letter l beg to say that
your health coffee has a flavor, so far
as 1 can remember, of the best coffee,
and this coffee flavor was so pro-
rounced that 1 suspected that coffee
was mixed with the other grains. /
telling them what it was, and they
pronounced it very excellent coffee.
One of them was a coffee drinker who
had to have it three times a day. L
would like to know if there is any cof-
fee in it. Very truly yours, James Nc
Menamim."
Battle Greek, Mich.-Mr. James Nc
Menamim, Hampton, Va.-Dear Sir:
We have your esteemed favor of the
18th, and in reply to your inquiry as to
the ingredients, will say that we are
willing to stake every penny we can get
together that Postum not only does not
contain coffee, but that it is composed
strictly and entirely of pure cereals OF
the field, the greater portion being the
various parts of wheat. It took US
nearly a year of experimenting TO pro-
duce Postum. the health coffee. 1t is
an easy matter to make weak sort of
drink from Drowned rye, wheat or malt
but 20 produce a liquid from the ce-
reals that has the color, taste and
nourishing properties of our present
product, taxed our best energies and
that OF one of the most expert ana
lytical chemists in America.
We felix q desire to demonstrate the
principle that mans drink at meals
snoula De made from grains, without
any sort of adulteration or chemical
preparation, aside from simple cooking.
1t NAV be further explained, that in
order 20 produce Postum the cereals
are cooked il different WAYS and the
final mixing of the proper proportions
is what gives us the desired result.
There is no possible argumeRt that
can be brought forward that will raise
the question for a moment regarding
the fixed fact OF the healthful, nour-
ishing and fattening properties of the
cereals furnished by the all-wise Gre
ator for mans natural use. We thank
you for your kind letter Yours re-
specially, Postum Cereal Co., Linn
There is but one genuine original

of limitations offered as Just as good"

PALMER'S STATEMENT.
He Contradicts Several Rumors
About Queen Lii.

Washington, Feb. 22.-Captain Julius
A Palmer, acting secretary to the ex-
queen of Hawaii. furnished the follow
ing statement in contradiction of sun
dry rumors which nave been circulated
since her arrival in Washington. Mr..
Palmer says:
She did not ask for a specific ap-
pointment with the president. Having
simply advised him of her arrival and
her wish to call. she was officially in
vited by Mr.. Cleveland within an hour
of the receipt of her note; her call upon
Mrs. Cleveland was voluntarily ar
ranged by that lady without the least
hint from anyone representing Liliou-
kalani. No other communication of
any kind or nature has ever passed be-
tween the Hawaiian party and the eX-
ecutive officers. All statements to the
contrary are absolutely false

The Union Pacific officials are anx-
iously waiting for word from Attor-
ney Zera Snow, who went east last
week to have Judge Sanborn confirm
the recent Short Line sale, and fix the
date for turning over the system to
the reorganized company.
1t has been supposed all along that
the turnover would be made on FED
%, at midnight, and that may yet be
done, although the absence of Judge
Sanborn from his circuit may delay
action until so near that time that 1t
would be impossible to effect the trans
fer this month. Notwithstanding the
delay, however, it is still confidently
hoped that the order will be made by
the oath and the transfer effected at
the end of this month.
OF course there is no especial OBJ
ject in bringing about this result ex-

transfer at the close Of months
