A Clever Trick.

1t certainly looks like it, but there is
really no trick about it. Anybody can
try it who has lame back and weak
kidneys, malaria or nervous troubles.
We mean he can cure himself right
away by using Electric Bltters. This
medicine tones up the whole system,
acts as stimulant to livera and kidneys,
is blood purifier ard nerve tonic. 1t
cures constipation, headache, fainting
spells, sleeplessness and melancholy.
1t is purely vegetable, mild laxative,
and restores the system to its natural
vigor. Try Electric Bitters and be
convinced that they are a miracle
worker. Every bottle guaranteed.

Give Him Republican Congress.

The Importance OF sending Re
publicans to Congress next winter,
in both houses, cannot be too
strongly impressed upon the people.
Legislation Of the greatest import
ance will be required to close up
our war affairs. 1t would be the
height of folly to elect men who
would make it a study to throw
every obstacle in the way of Presi-
dent Mckinley in adjusting affairs
favorable to this country. The
following pertinent article on the
subject from the New York Mail
and Express, will be concurred in
by every true Republican:
These are triumphs for the Pre-
sident which the people can repay
in but one way-that is by giving
him a senate and a house of repre-
sentatives after March 4 next that
will be in political harmony with
him and all that he stands for be-
fore the people. The work of 1896
is only half finished. One session
of a democratic congress. with Il
senate constituted as at persent,
would work quite as much damage
as did the last democratic congress,
for while the executive veto can
prevent legislation it cannot allay
apprehension. No doubt the Cuban
and silver questions are in fair
way to be settled, as every one
says, but let a democratic majority
in congress be chosen at the polls
IN November and people will begin
to learn that the snake is not dead.
only scOtched. There is, therefore.
quite as much necessity for pa
triotic people to pull together in the
elections this fall as there was in
1896, and they have an additional
incentive to do so in that President
Mckinley's administration has
moved exactly along the lines
promised them. If men ever had
compensation for leaving their
party in order to serve their coun-
try certainly the democrats who in
1896 supported Mckinley have had
it in the tremendous changes in the
condition of the people and the
country. Their veto of 1898, how
ever in vain, if they are now to
regard the merely negative results
IN legislation of the presidential
victory. The situation at Wash
lngton is merely that Of two oppos-
ing forces, neither one of which is
able to carry out it's own convic-
tions. The gold standard is in the
majority in the republican house of
representatives and in the minority
IN the politically chaotic senate.
Monetary reform has it's champions
IN the house and has its opponents
in the senate.

has changed the whole situation. The
United States has entered upon the task of
eXpelling Spain from Cuba by force; and
when that has been accomplished, the Gu
bans, under the temporary protection and
with the temporary assistance of the
United States. will then be in possession of
their own without any further prelimi-

This constant harping on the string Of

pride, not worth considering. If Spain had
possessed real pride and manifested 1t to-

The Fatuity of Anti-Americanism

From the London Chronicle
We are quite satisfied with at least one
aspect Of the American crisis. Whatever
happens, Great Britain has. and will have,
of the European powers. Anti-American-
ism Is today disavowed in, we believe,
every London newspaper. The theme is re-
peated in different keys by the entire Lon
necessary to change its note. That, for
the present, is enough. That the rest of
the powers were hoping to use US as a
cats-paw in the matter of Cuba, as they
used us In the matter Of Crete. is clear
from The news which comes from Berlin
and Vienna, the twin centers Of anti
Americanism in Europe. All such ideas are
blown to the winds today. Nor so far as
any unfriendly action is concerned, have
We any fear of a government which in
cludes Lord Salisbury and Mr.. Chamber
lain. Whatever diplomatic course may be
taken, 1t WILL we are convinced, be on the
side OF America. The question Is whether
We shall make our sympathies effectually
felt. So far as the coaling Of America n
ships in West Indian waters is concerned.
We can certainly do SO; and II Spain i'm
AGNES that we are going to allow her the
right of search, or to stand an attempt to
prolong the war by privateering, at Amer
fca's land our expense, she is greatly mis-
taken. In our view the most obvious, the
most merciful, and the safest policy, look
ing both to the ties between England and
America, and to our own vast trade inter-
ests In the Atlantic, IS to make war as
difficult for Spain as 1t can be made, and
to give her notice beforehand that these
will be the main lines of our action, If a
prolonged conflict en5ues, it will be almost
as hurtful to us as to the states. For any
friend of peace-we will not speak OF
friends of humanity. for freedom and pro-
gress are out Of fashion today-to dlscour-
age America and to encourage Spain is
about as fabulous a course as it is DOS
sible to conceive.

The American Injuries MT Manila.

The main interest that Americans now
take in the details of the fight at Manila
relates to the exact amount of damage
suffered by our fleet. Nothing is yet known
on that score. The most reliable account
of the battle is that it lasted only two
hours. There is little or nothing in the
81 antsh accounts about the damage to the
American ships. If any serious harm had
been done to them we should have heard
oe it, tremendously exaggerated, to be sure
but yet sufficiently clear to let us know
that some destruction had been wrought
by the Spanish shells. Mention is made Of
the landing Of the American wounded. 1t
is inevitable that some men should be
hurt, perhaps many of them, probably
me killed. But it is plain that the Amer
lean sufferings were insignificant in COM
parison with those Of the enemy. Later
accounts will supply these details. Mean
while the hearts of all citizens will beat
with sympathy for those brave fellows who
may have been hurt or killed in sustaining
the glory of the American flag in that far
away port. May every man who sailed into
Manila harbor so calamity Sunday morning
live to tell the glorious story.

The historian Of the war between the
United States and Spain must not forget to
record the great battle of La Herradura,
which was fought the other day. A few
score of Spanish infantrymen and cavalry
zen rode forth bravely upon a buff-so
typical of their nations posture in the
whole afair-and proceeded to pepper
away with their rifles at the flagship New
York. then passing On jaunt along the
coast to observe the character of the shore
between Havana and Cabanas. The rife
balls fell harmlessly in the water between
snip and shore, and the sailors laughed and
pleaded for chance to teach the unman-
rerly soldiers on shore a lesson in the
ethics of warfare. A few we'll directed rapid
hre shots effectually broke up the gath
erlns on shore, and the splitting of small
bullets toward the ship ceased suddenly.
doubtless IN Madrid they have been told
that squadron Of cavalry charged the
American naval squadron and forced the
latter to withdraw from the neighborhood
OF the shore. Nothing is more likely than
that in these reports a few dozen Ameri-
cans will be noted as slain. Perhaps a
heavy gun or two may be carried away by
the fierce Spanish fire on the ship. The
whole affair is reminiscent Of the adven-
tires of that intrepid Castilian knight who
went forth in armor from La Mancha to do
battle for beauty and truth and heroically
charged all the windmills he encountered.
