Il can't see how any family lives
without Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy" says ]. r.
Adams, a well known druggist, of
Geneva, Ala, in a letter inquiring the
price of a dozen bottles, that he might
not only have it for use in his own
family, but supply it to his neighbors.
The reason some people get along with
out it is because they do not know it's
value, and what a vast amount of suf-
fering it will save. Wherever it be-
comesN known and used, it is recog-
nized as necessity, for it is the only
remedy that can be depended upon for
bowel complaints, both for childres
and adults. For sale by all druggists

A WAITING GAME.

The decree has gone forth that re-
calls Weyler Immediately from his
post. He has been ordered to at once
desist from all his tyrannical and
bloody courses and return to Spain on
the first steamer. This is an official
rebuke to Weylerism. Now what will
Sagastaism bring forth as the fruit
of its Spanish policy? Certain it is
that it intends to pursue the conquest
| of Cuba or at least to attempt it, but
| with what result the months that are
to follow alone can tell. Spain has put
| herself more in touch with the civili-
| cation of the present in her prompt re-
| Duke Of the barbarism that has mark
| ed of course of the war hitherto, but
whether this change is from any in
creased appreciation of the rights of
humanity or only as a mark of defer
ence to prevailing sentiment is not
known. Perhaps it matters little, so
long as it relieves Cuba from the reign

less cruelty that has so far followed
the movements of the Spanish forces
IN Cuba ever since the recall of Cam
pos. What concerns this country most
is the change that it viii gring in the
relations of the United States and
Spain. There will be one cause of in
PREVENTION removed if the war in Spain
is conducted with the same regard to
the rights of the wounded and the pris-
oners and the non-combatants and the
women and the children as wars are
conducted elsewhere between so-called
civilized people. This will make it
only the more difficult for this country
to interpose in any effective way, and
will postpone to an indefinite and dis
tant future all attempts at settlement
through the good office of this gov
ernment. How long the Congress of
the United States will keep hands off
and see her commerce with Cuba ruin
ed and the possessions of her citizens
in that island virtually confiscated, is
a problem that time alone will solve.
Cuba is stronger than at any time
since the war opened and Spain is
weaker. These two facts, taken in
cOnnScllOn WITH the neduWdy tndI the
rebels are making in the PHILIPPINES, do
not give any assurance of a speedy ter
mination of the war, or in fact, any
termination of it favorable to Spain
1t seems to be waiting game. Spain
is waiting to tire out the patience of
the United States and force her into
some overt act that will be an ex-
cuse for claiming damages or declaring
war against this country. Cuba is
waiting to tire out Spain and compel
her to grant that independence which
at present is not in sight. The Unit
ed States is waiting to see how long
it will be before Spain, convinced of the
imposibsility of conquering Cuba, will
be in a temper to listen to proposals
for a settlement While these parties
are thus waiting the great commercial
world is waiting the end of a contest
that is doing no earthly good only
consuming men and material in a use
less contest.

General Miles could hardly help say
ing something that was unbecoming
the commander in chief of the United
States army, for he talked too much
with his mouth when abroad. His re-
mark that he had "seen all the armies
of Europe except that of Spain, and
if Spain should declare war against
the United States may probably have
an opportunity of seeing that" is ex-
ceedingly ill timed at this present. No
one supposed Miles a statesman, but
he ought to have common sense.

they got not representation at all. The
