THE MATTER WITH THE JOURNAL.

THE MATTER WITH THE JOURNAL,
The. Kansas City Journal is IN ga
hard row of stumps." A little over a
year ago it was the most rabid free
silver paper in the state. 1t could see
more damnation in the gold standard
than all the democratic papers in the
state combined. But the st. Louis
Convention declared for the s'exist-
ing gold standard" 1t took the
Journal a week to but it per-
formed the acrobatic feat, and landed
center on the gold standard side of the
question.
Once located on the republican gold
standard platform the Journal began
to tell the people what a great blessing
it had beer t. the nation. 1t told
about how prosperous the nation would
be If Mckinley was elected. Ii made
promises and promises and promises.
Mckinley were going to set the mills
agoing and Cuba free. If Mckinley
were elected all the grievous
ills with which the nation was afflicted
would be ~eradicated.
Mckinley was elected. Now that's
one thing that's the matter with the
Journal.
But it has another attack of political
rabies.
During the campaign it undertook
to prove to the people of Missouri that
Lon v. Stephens would not make Mis-
souri, a good governor.
Oh how it did fight Stephens! Be-
cause he was a democrat? No indeed,
but because the Journal loved (P) Mis-
souri,. 1t raised a great cry. 1t abus-
ed, villiied and %maligned Stephens.
1t lied about him in every issue and
almost every column. In the Journals
eyes this nan Stephens was a %''terri-
BILE man. But the people elected him.
Gave him the largest vote ever cast for
a governor of this state. de went
into office. Has served six months.
Has reduced the state debt a hundred
thousand dollars. Has made economy
in Office a practice as well as a theory
Has demonstrated wisdom in nearly
every act. Has served the people well.
Has proved TO them that he wants to
be a faithful %servant Has been a
faithful ~servant. Has demonstrated
that his accusers had been false to
themselves and to the people.
And that's another thing that's the
with the Journal.

The report that Stone, Cook, Bland,
Wetmore and other party leaders had
organized against the Stephens adj
ministration is the most brazen lie that
has been printed in the republican pa
pers for some time. Is is not necessary
for the democratic press to deny such
a false and absurd statement. The
thing coniradicts itself. Mr.. Stephens
is in perfect harmony with the leaders
of his party. They have not organized
against him for several reasons. The
first and foremost is that there has
been nothing in Stephens administra-
ton for democrats TO organize against.
His record is clear, and creditable to
the party. Any kind of an effort to
embarrass him would meet with gen.
eral condemnation. Besides Stone,
Cook, Bland, Wetmore and the rest of
the democratic leaders are not in the
business of organizing against democ-
Tacy.

The Result Of imperfect Digestion Of Food

Every living thing, plant or animal con

In the human body these germs of disease
and death (callod by scientists Ptomaines),
are usually the results Of imperfect digestion
of food the result of indigestion or
dyspepsia.
The stomach, from abuse. weakness does
not promptly and thoroughly digest the food.
The result is heavy, sodden mass which
ferments (the first process of decay poison

lacking in red corpuscles poisoning the
brain causing headaches and pain in the eyes.
Bad digestion irritates the heart, causing
palpitation and finally bringing on disease

Poor digestion poisons the kidneys causing
Brights disease and diabetes
And this is so because every organ, every
nerve depends upon the stomach alone foi

SAGASTA many SUCCHED
Senior Castillo as the Head Of the
Spanish Cabinet,
A SERIOUS NATIONAL CRISIS

Newspapers Declare It the Most Deli
cate Question since the Restoration
OF the Monarchy-C Campos May Again
Succeed Weyler.
Madrid June AIT a council Of the
cabinet last evening Senor Canovas del
Castillo, after explaining the various
aspects of the situation at home and
in the colonies. concluded by declaring
that, having obtained the sanction Of
parliament to bills for the financial
needs of the next financial year, he
deemed that the time had arrived to
ask the crown either to ratify the pow
ers OF the ministry or to confide the
government to other hands. He said
he had decided upon this course be-
cause he could not bow to the imposi-
tions of the opposition, and because he
felt that matters had reached a stage
where a slight reconstruction of the
cabinet would fail to meet the de-
mands of the situation.
He added, however, that if the crown
still had confidence in him and in the
Conservative party he would not hesi-
tate to remain in office. and to endeav-
or to cope with the difficulties at home
and in the colonies.
The queen regent formally accepted
the resignation of the cabinet and con-
suited with the president of the cham
ber but as yet she has not summoned
any political leader. Probably she win
not do so until she has seen General
Martinez Campos, who will arrive here
today. General Campos will probably
again be sent to Cuba, to relieve Wey-
ler
Senor Canovas is much disappointed
at the response which HIS advances in
the way of reform and financial plans
have met in Cuba. He is also very loath
to recall Captain General Weyler, al
though aware that Weyler's presence
in the island and his severe policy of
strict relations of Spain with the Uni
ted States and the majority of the Gu
bans is disastrous.
Many Of the Spanish newspapers pro-
nOunce this the most serious national
crisis since the regency commenced.
In view Of the result it may have on
the prospects Of Spanish rule in Cuba
and the relations of Spain and the
United States, to call Senor Sagasta tc
form a ministry would be a virtual
admission that the Spanish coloia
| policy for the last two years has beer
a total failure.
This would be such an extremely
grave admission that it is possible al
/ attempt win be made to form an in
! termediary cabinet under the Marquis
/ of Pidal or General Azcarraga, min
lister Of war in the Canovas cabinet
But in the best informed circles this is
not regarded as feasible, and 1t is
thought the queen regent will be com
PEELED to summon Senior Sagasta.
