through the agency of American troops
This accusation is ancient history. If it
We're true, which is not admitted. it
would have no more effect today upon the
| status of the Hawaiian republic than does
the fact that French troops assiste d
washington to overthrow the British
monarchy In America have any effect up
on the present status of the American re-
public.
Regardless of it's origin. the republic of
Hawaii is today recognized by every gov
eminent of the world as an independent
| nation, with all the rights and powers Of
any other nation.
Concerning the truth of the charge.
United States Minister Stevens and Capt.
Wlltse OF the navy, who were on the
ground at the time, deny it,, and a United
states Senate investigating committee re-
ported on 1t as follows:
THE committee, upon the evidence as it
appears in their report (which they be-
lieve is a full, fair and impartial state
ment OF the facts attending and prece-
dent to the landing of the troops) agree
that the purpose of Capt. Wiltse and Min
| ister stevens were only those which were
! legitimate, viz: the preservation of law
and order to the extent of preventing q
disturbance of the public peace which
might, IN the absence of troops, injuri-
ously affect the rights of the American
citizens resident in Honolulu"
history will vindicate Minister Stevens
and prove that the United States never
possessed a truer officer or a more pa
triOtic citizen.
| 1t is unlikely that the United States
will go to war with any other country.
But If it does. and it then wants Ha.
wall, there is time enough to take it.
Whether the United States will go te
war again Is matter of opinion. judi,

The DeLamar nugget. [volume] (DeLamar, Idaho) 1891-1900, 1897-11-12

than the cadaverous countenances ofthose
unfortunate persons whom we are accus-
lomed TO call "Confrmed inralids" What
a misnomer! implying, too, despair, giving
up for lost! AS long as the vivifying power
of IIostetter's Stomach Brtters can be felt,
and that is possible so long as there is no
absolute collapse ofthe faculties, fresh vital
ity can be infused into wasted. feeble frames
color and flesh can be brought back to vast
ed, palid cheeks with this grand sheet an
Choir Of the debilltated and sickly. 1t is n
tonic OF the greatest potency and the utmost
purity, and remedy for and preventative
Of dyspepsia, bilious, malarious, rheumatic,

and sleep are greatly aided by it; it counter
acts the effects Of undue fatigue or excite
ment, and nullifies the often perllous conse-
Iuences Of exposure In Indictment weather

The Miners Wealth.

Robert Mcintyre, Methodist minis.
ter of Chicago, has stirred some of his
brethren because he grub staked a
miner for the Klondike. The Chicago
Tribune interviewed Mr. Mcintyre on
the subject. He says:
Conscientious scruples against such
an undertaking? No scruples entered
my mind then, nor have they since. 1t
was purely and simply a matter of
principal. The Sermon on the Mount
and the Ten Commandments don't
come into the matter, and theology
needn't.
The fact is, I admire miners wealth.
It's clean. There are no blood or tears
on it. 1t is acquired away from the
scheming and the cut-throat competi-
ton that characterizes ordinary bust
ness ventures, where the success of one
man so often means the disaster and
downfall of some other man, or perhaps
number Of men. Nobody has been
pipched. Nobody has been wronged.
The miner who digs fortune out of the
ground has the satisfaction that he
hasn't robbed soul, even though he
becomes a hundred times a millionaire
Then, too, there is an other factor to
take into consideration. The man who
makes fortune on the Board of Trade,
or on the Stock Exchange, or in build
ing up a gigantic business house, adds
nothing to the worlds store of available
wealth. The world, in other words. is
no richer because he is richer. He is
rich, rather, because somebody else is
poorer. The miner, on the other hand,
whether he digs out 800 or 100000,
adds that much to the worlds wealth
and with the added wealth, he contrib
utes just that much to the possible
amount of the worlds comforts and
pleasures.
AS 1 look at the matter there are few
producers of wealth. The many live
on the few. The only man comparable
with the miner is the farmer. He gets
what he has, direct from nature. But
he produces perishable wealth. While
he meets want, his contribution to
the worlds wealth therefore is not a
permanent one like the miners.
The gold miner is to-day the king
wealth producer Of the country, aud / |

recreation number and has several
stunning pictures of noted New York
women prominent in various sports.
Every Month has fascinating array
of pictures of pretty women, famous
people, literary gossip ard good photo

for the looking.
The Month has tempting lot of gos-
sip about people who write books, their
latest works and peculiarities. Edith

the large number of portraits adds to
the value of the issue.

SAID ABOUT DAINTlNESS.

Dainty food is a good present.-Efik'
A dainty stomach beggars the purse
-Cydias.
Eat and drink with thy friend; yea,
partake of his choice dainties; but be-
ware of buying or selling to him.-Con-
fucius.
Plain food is far more wholesome for
the young than dainties; they corrupt,
enfeeble and destroy the mind as well
as the body.-C. J. Davreux.
Very few people are dainty, and yet
how many pretend to be SO! But like
the ass that wore the lions skin, their
braying betrays them.-Daa, the Nor
wegian, 1909.
1t is not in diminutive size, nor in
beauty, nor in finish, that daintiness
lies, but in combination of the three.
An ant is small, Yosemite is beautiful,
the Venus-de-Medici is finished, but
whoever call them dainty FANNIE E.

Losses in Battle.

When English journals express the
wish that Spain or Japan or some like
power would call the United States to
account, they either gnaw a file or ex-
pose their culpable, marvellous ignor-
ance. When anything is said about
fighting those same men are prone to
mention Balaklava as sample of what
Englishmen can do. The chances are
mouth of hell" were Irishmen, but no
matter. What of it? The Light Bri-
gade was 673 strong in officers and
men when Cardigan ordered the
charge. OF these liz. were killed and
1874 wounded according to Kinglake) or
a total of DAT, or a percentage of 1861.
Now, in the war of the Rebellion as
compiled by Fox, and repeated by the
Chicago Post, on one page of his
"Regimental Losses in the Civil War;"
is list of sixty-three Union regiments
that in single battles lost from SOL to
50 per cent-the latter the First Mime
sofa Infantry that went iuto the battle
af Gettysburg with 262 men and lost
forty seven killed and 215 wounded.
The Twenty fourth Michigan Infantry,
in the same battle, out of 406 men lost
sixty-nine killed, 242 wounded and
eighty-one missing (most of them
killed. in all 397-or so per cent, the
greatest loss known to warfare except
where there was absolute extermina-
tion, as in the case of Clusters last bat
tie. The Post says that lat the recent
encampment of the Grand Army of
the Republic at Buffalo an official re-
port was made showing that within a
radius of twelve miles of Fredericks-
burg, Va, more men killed in battle lie
buried than England has lost in all her
battles for the past 100 years. The
English and Spanish editors had better
read up little before they talk so
glibly of a war with the Uuited States.
Europe with all her crack armies has
no such records of fighting and fighting
men as our Civil war record shows
Then we were fighting each other; it
was State against State and section
against section. In the next war when
the roll of States shall be call ed they
will all be on one side and woe to the
power or powers, that makes the call.
ing necessary. If Spain with 100000
troops has been unable to subdue little
Cuba in two years, how long could she
retain distinct national existence af
ter declaring war against the United
States? And how long would she last,
even if some other power of the Old
World should essay to go to her
rescue?-Salt Lake Tribune.

Bob Burdette, in a recent letter to
Miss Lucia Griffin of Abba, la, we'll
known public reader and entertainer,
said:
Somebody told me, Miss Griffin that
you wanted to vote. Well, go ahead
and vote, for all I care. I think you
should have that privilege, or right
rather I am in favor of woman's suff-
rage; have been ever since I was old
enough to know anything about it.
See no more reason why a woman
should not vote than 1 do why she
should not read the papers, understand
politics, at least as much as men do;
love her country, and bring forth and
train up soldiers who shall preform
military service for her in return for
her care for them when they were help
less. I don't think the gift of suffrage
would 'unsex' her. l don't think (if
she paid no more attention to primar-
les and politics than SO per cent of the
best men now do), that her political
duties would occupy more than three
or four hours of her time every year,
and we could surely spare her from the
kitchen and the nusery that long with
out any danger of the household fall
ing to pieces. Hurrah for the women!
New and old! 1 have four sisters and
only three brothers, maybe that ac-
counts for my partiality."

honor him above all others. 1t is no
dishonor, it needs no apology, to emu
late his example or assist him in his
efforts. There's the whole question in
a nutshell.
1t isn't church matter. The fact is
God put the gold in the valley of the
Yukon for His children. Any man,
consistent with such regulations as are
necessary for fair play and the protec-
ton of individual interests, has an I'M
deniable right to go there and dig and
delve all he chooses. If he pulls out
100000 he simply makes draft, not
on somebody's bank account but on
Natures treasury. There is no more
wrong in that, therefore, than there
would be in a man sowing wheat or
planting corn and trusting to Nature
to yield twenty, fifty or a hundred fold.
It's private matter between man and
his Maker. There's scriptural author
ity enough for man to plant and reap
a harvest of grain, and don't see why
there isn't authority enough for a man
to dig and delve and reap harvest of
gold dust and nuggets.
AS look at the matter, therefore,
the minister who doffs broadcloth and
dons miners garb and faces the perils
of the wilderness, and gets draft
cashed on Natures treasury for few
hundred thousand dollars, or million
or two, is doing humanity good turn.
l don't know by what course he could
do more good or add more to the sum
of the worlds comforts or pleasures.
If he can't go to the field of operation
himself, its an honorable thing, l be-
lieve, for him to grubstake somebody
else.
1 can't quite see why a clergyman, if
he chooses, should not be wealthy
producer. Christian ethics are not
against it. There is only about so
much wealth in the world, anyway, and
life now a-days is scramble to get as
much OF what does exist as possible. L
should rank benefaction above ben
ediction. But on the miners wealth,
as just said, there are no blood, no
tears, no groans, sufferings, sorrows
caused to others.
A minister has just as much right to
mine gold or grubstake somebody else
as the man who listens to his sermons
and helps pay his salary. It's foolish
notion that minister, because he is a
minister, must apologize for doing
openly what he commends others for
doing l have said that the miner who
actually adds to the worlds wealth is
the cleanest in existence. Believing
that, why should not 1 offer to grub
stake Mr.. CASTOR?
