| was in pitiful staIe, when my
husband, who had been benefited BY
he use of Paine's celery compound,
urged me to try il. In a remarkably
short time after l began taking the
remedy began to notice change fol
the better. Before l had taken three
bottles l was well. l consider my
cure a miracle, for l had tried great
many doctors and different drugs and
spent hundreds of dollars in vain.
Respectfully yours,
Mrs. KATE HENNESSEN.
Close, careful observation Of great
numbers of cases like the above led
Professor Edward f. Phelps, NJ. D..
L, L. D.. of the Dartmouth Medical
school to the formulation Of Paine IS
celery compound.
The success OF this universally we'll
known remedy in quickly driving out
disease from the blood and system
need not be retold 20 newspaper read
ers.
Pline's celery compound restores
to a healthy state a weakened and
disease nervous system. One Of the
first evidences of its building-up
virtue is The gain In flesh noticeable
about the face. Night swsats and
nervous twltchings are things Of the
past; there is great Improvement in
looks, "a better appetite, sound sleep,
a clearer skin and more regular func-
tions. These are few of the OUT
ward improvements. More important
is the thorough aud radical purifying
OF the blood and the regulating and
building up OF the deep-lying nerves
all over the body. There is nothing
half way or partial in the effect Of
Paine's celery compound. 1t cures
perma rently.

BY the courtesy Of the publishers
who are old friends this Office receives
the Daily State Register Of Des
Moines, Iowa, which has just rounded
I'D its twenty-s venth year under the
management and editorship Of the
Clackson Brothers. This is the long
est record of continuous journalism
by family in one community that
there is any history of in The middle
west. The Clarksons and their paper
may be said TO haYe made Iowa ppliti-
cally, and TO a large extent Iowa bis
tory. When IL is furthur considered
that the ClarksOns are positive and
have made no friends hips by compro-
mise of principle their work in build
ing up the biggest paper in that state
aud holding their own againsG Oppo-
sition within and without their party
becomes quite remarkable, considered
merely in the light of a performance
in political journalism. No paper
10 our country has mDre relentlessly
scourged corruption and extravaganza
in It's own party and then turned
right around and jnst as Loyalty advo
Gated the election OF the entire ticket
And IL has been endorsed by the peo-
pie of Iowa. When the party was
really on the defensive and deserved
defelt IL there was no other way OF
checking its wrongdoers. The Reg
Ister rallied the old Republican guard
OF that state so they came home from
states all oyer the union 10 once more
vote a straight Republican ticket.
We heartily endorse the following
sentiment from it's anniversary arti
cle:-
"The Register is a Republican pa
per, but it respects the convictions Of
the voters of all other parties and ouly
asks equal respect fer its own views,
while constantly challenging criti-
cism and correction whenever its
opinions are thought TO be wrong.
We believe that IL is the duty of a
newspaper to condemn wrong wher-
ever IL is found, without regard TO
party friends or foes. There are bad
men in all parties, but no newspaper
ar party should defend and sustain a
BID Official simply because he is OF
ti, same political faith, and that is
IA, reason why all voters should rea.
lie personal responsibility for bad
men placed Ia office or in salary draw
ing places"

Concentrating Forces,

HAVANA, Dec. li.-The plans OF the
insurgents to strike blow near the
city has been checked, according to
the Official account, but the concen-
tratlOn OF their forces is 'such as to
make II unlikely that the insurgent
bands will surrender, as 5he Spanish
authorities have been hoping.
The business concerns OF the city are
much discouraged 10y the actual situ-
alton. They do not now look for
ward TO a speedy end OF the reyolu-
tlon. All say that they have aband-
uned the hope that the Insurgents will
surrender or accept the conditions Of
autonomy.
General Pando and staff are still
with the gunboats Diego and Valas-
quez, which are engaged in removing
the wreck OF the gunbOat Relampago,
which was dynamited some months

II Hawaiian annexation is a
splendid thing for the sugar mono
poly, bow is Il that Claus Spreckels
opposes annexation This question is
readily answered IN California.
Spreclels has had a quarrel with his
two sons, who, as we'll as he, have
large sugar interests 10 Hawaii. They
strongly favor annexation as calcu-
lated to greatly enhence ;the value Of
those interests, but old man Spreckels
feels so bitterly against them that lie
would rather, so people say. lose every
cent of his own than let his sons make
a dollar Hence mis- warn opposition
TO annexation which would profit him
as much as his SONS. Annexation Is
a great thing for the United States
sugar monopoly. Bet how about the
doMestic beet sugar industry?

Tacoma Ledger:--IIannls Taylor,
the great American lingo, critlcises
the Presidents message in as undiplo.
matte language as he has used in re-
latiou TO the Spanish officials. Mr.
Taylor is oyerstepping the bounds,
for the American people who stop to
consider the situation fully appreciate
the statesmanlike policy of Mr. Nc
Kinley. Al the first blush, when our
people were horriiied at the atrocities
OF Weyler, there arose an almost
universal demand for Interference.
Now, however, there has been an en-
tire change Butcher Weyler and
the most bloodthirsty cabinet which
upheld his acts have been sent to the
rear, and the present administration
shows by his acts that it is earnestly
trying To carry out reforms, humane
treatment aud civilized warfare.
Under these conditions this country
can do no more than To give Spain a
chance 10 show its sincerity in carry
Ing into effect the reforms promised
aud already started upon, The neceS.
sity for interference has disappeared
so long ls the good work started upon
is continued by Spain, aud conse-
queDtly the business Of this country
need not be disturbed by the feyeriSh
feelings that obtained f)r some
months. There is sufficient in Mr.
Kinley's message to show that If the
need of heroic treatment should arise
he will be equal TO the occasion. For
the present he holds the welfare Of
the people Of the Unitee States SUI
perior to display OF heroics which
are unnecessary and would prove
vastly damaging TO the business in
terests OF his own neOple,

WANT TO VOTE IN PRIMARIES.
CoIored Democratic Clubs Petition
the City Central Committee.

Colored Democratic Clubs Nos. l and T.
Of this city, have petitioned the City
Central Democratic Committee to permit
the colored Democrats to vote in primary
elections in future.
They base their request upon four
grounds, the first being that these clubs
last year cast 725 votes for Bryan elect
ors. ard that hissvote among the colorsd
people would have been much larger out
for the fact that the argument was used
that they were not allowed 10 vote in
primaries: second, that the privilege OF
voting in the primary would greatly en-
courage negro Democrats and increase
their ranks, and that 40 per cent. OF the
colored vote of this city could be cast
for Democratic candidates, were TINS
reorest granted; third, that white people
pav 50 per cent. Of the taxes, and should
have control of the city government;
fourth. that the colored Democrats are
not seeking Office. and that the Repub-
Hcan Marty Only needs them on election
DAYS. and that it Is proper that all ne
groes should vote with the Democrats,
in whom their every interest lies.
The paper is signed by Royal RACKS
president Of one Of the Democratic clubs;
Roval White. an ex-councilman; William
A. Jackson, David Harris, John White,
and W. S. Johnson.

her mornings at the ship-yard, untoldeu
the Stars and Stripes to the breezes. and
started for Long Island sound, whither
she goes TO make her official trial trip.
There the test will be made over the hf-
teen-mile course Monday morning, and
there is not the slightest fear in the minds
Of her builders here that the trip VIII be
other than emfnently successful. On re-
cent unofficial trial trips this vessel de-
veloped more speed and proved herself
to be a better sea boat than was expected.
She developed a speed of one and one
half knots in excess of her contract speed
Of thirteen knots per hour, and on her
trip Monday, which will be of four hours
duration over a measured course, she Is
expected TO break that record by proba-
bly, a half knot, and earn her builders a
premium of $4,000.
The Helena will follow the Wilmington
to-day, and it Is thought she Will make
better record than her sister ship. as she
proved herself to be half knot faster on

a half knot on.their official tests. as they
will be IN better shape then. The Helena
will run the course on Tuesday.
