yourself of them, your condition
financially is improved, and will viz

your excuse. Il is true, you can get
along without going to such places

WAR REVENUE DECISION.
The Tax Must BE Paid on shipments OF
Money by Express-Regarding the
Sending of Newspapers.

Washington, Aug. 1o.-Information
having reached the internal revenue
bureau that certain express companies
we're shipping packages of money
without affixing a revenue stamp there
to, the commissioner has made ruling
that money shall be regarded as
goods" for the purposes of the act,
and, therefore, a stamp must be affixed
to the bill of lading or other evidence
of receipt given therefor.
The ruling heretofore made that
leach bundle of newspapers having a
different destination should have a
different bill of lading aud be
stamped" is modified, in view of opin-
ions Of senators and members of con-
gress that such was not the intention of
the law. Therefore, when the tax of
one cent is paid on the general bundle,
each package in the general bundle,
the commissioner holds, which is taken
therefrom and delivered at intermedi-
ate points, do not require separate
receipt and stamp.
The Iola register. [volume] (Iola, Allen County, Kansas) 1875-1902, 1898-08-12

immediately in this case is perhaps
a little deceptive. The experience of
the war department in the en-
deavor to remove to Spain the Span
ish troops surrendered at Santiago,
has not justified the expectation that
the large force of Spanish regulars can
be gathered up and shipped home to
Spain in less than about go days at the
best. This estimate is based on the
fact that it is not expected by the
Spanish troop transports that they
will be able to return all of the Span
ish prisoners to Spain before the LIST of
September. Therefore what Is meant
by the word immediately" is that the
Spanish government shall at least be-
gin the arrangements at once for the
evacuation of the islands.
On the whole. 1t is a rather fortunate
circumstance that this evacuation can
not take place en- masse and immedi-
ately. for 1t has been determined that
the Spanish troops withdrawn must
be replaced by United States troops.
This is deemed to be necessary to
guard against anarchy, and to secure
the establishment of a stable govern
ment in Cuba, under proper constitu-
tional guarantees, but in all probable
ity not many of them will have to go
there before the present rainy season
has ueared its end.

A REVOLUTION WILL FOLLOW.
Don Carlos American Representative says
the spanish Pretender viii Lead q
Great Army Into Madrid.

New York, Aug. SIN an interview
here. Senior Diaz de Cortina, Don Car
los American re representative, said:
Economically. Spain is In state OF ruin to-
day, and the absolute power OF government
which has been In force for the last 80 years Is
the only cause OF blame. No nation In the world
could stand what Spain has stood for all these
years and still have her people remain loyal
All overthecountry factories ara closing up and
worSmen being sent home to starve 1t is ter
riole The country is ripe for revolution.
republic Is impossible; republicans there
are divided into hundreds Of factions and are
altogether theorists Spain had republic for
~ years, and during that time had four presi-
dents-nearly five. in fact The last one was
nominated but never elected, as the Spanish
people grew tired Of the republic business.
They realized that II was not the government
Spain required
Don Carlos is ten times stronger than ever
before. The hopes placed in him are general
among all classes throughout the country at
the present day, while some time ago during
the last Carist uprising the feeling was con-
fined only to the north and east where for four
years Don Carlos reigned absolutely could
name at least dozen generals who sympathize
with the Carlist hopes who at a moments no.
tice. would raise an army Of 10000 volunteers
between them.
However, Don Carlos will do nothing while
Spain is in trouble with this country, This he
has asserted and he is prince who keeps his
word. He will declare himself when SuPasta
or whoever may be then in power, makes peace
and the soldiers are beginning to return to
Spain defeated. The revolution which will re-
suit in putting Don Carlos on the throne will
not be Of long duration The Carlist army will
advance directly from the northern frontier TO
Madrid. One OF the reasons Of failure during
the last uprising was the lack of money OF

Don Carlos will establish a constitu-
tional monarchy, very much like that
