Spanish-America.

Every true American heart
should throb with sympathy at this
time Tor Mexico at the mention Of
the days September 18th and 10Th,
which are the same 10 Mexicans a. .
July lth is to Americans. These
are Mexico's two greatest holidays
President Diaz was born on sep
tember 18th at II o'clock at night
and one hour later September
lGth) was the birthday Of Inde-
pendent Mexico. It's no wonder
therefore that the Mexicans love
these two holidays, which represent
so much To them. On the night Of
September 18th atcxactly O'Clock
from every city, town, hin and dale
over the great Republic, one mighty
shout issues from a million free
mems throats, viva Mexico
Viva Ell Prcsidentew
In Mexico the day is celebrated
with great splendor Nearly a
quarter Of million Of people take
part in the festivities aud the scene
rivals anything ever presented on
| the American Continent.
On the day preceding the Presi-
dents birthday it is customary to
hold the unrivalled Battle Of
Flowers" Long before the sun
begins to peep over the hills there
can be seen thousands Of Indians
vending their way to the city,
bringing with them large supplies
Of rarest and choicest flowers.
Houses are decorated in the great
est profusion, and the public build
ings and statues show a practical
evidence Of the great fertility and
richness Of the soil. II is one Of
the days when every one has a free
license: The rich and the poor
mingle and pelt one another with
flower. in the most democratic
manner.
This il followed by two days

west the winds were gentle and the sun
shone.
Milwaukee, Jan. 24.-The most Sc

Snow to the depth of is inches fell, and
with the wind blowing at the rate of 50

skiff. The boat was anchored to tree
near the bank. but the land around it
was overfowed for a half mile in all
directions. When the unfortunates took
refuge in the skiff the darkness and the
storm evidently bewildered them. for
they never reached the shore. Sunday
their skiff was found floating near their
swamped home half filled with water
and the three occupants dead in the bot
tom of the little craft. They died from
exposure.

There is more catarrh in this section

years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced ii a local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con
stantly falling to cure with local treat
ment pronounced it incurable. Sci
ence has proven catarrh to be con-
stitutional disease and therefore re-
quires constitutional treatment. Halls

is a. near the correct date as any. IN
the Herald Of that date the editor
leaves the position he had formerly
held in support Of the compromise Of
1880, and says:
"'Now We have recanted our first
recantation and are prepared to stand
by our old faith again, in spite Of the
fires Of political denunciation-in spite
of all the South Carolinas, and Doug
lasses and Niggers between hell and
Texas. We have repented
Of all our opposition to the Proviso or
non-extension of slavery measures
and start anew where we started al
first. When the north gets
well aboltionized. which the passage
of the Douglas Bill must effect, then
slavery is a doomed child; it will
groan and lie in spasms in the lap of
its nurse and be buried in hell with
Dives where every species OF human
tyranny and bondage ought to make
their beds.
From all this it appears that al
though there was no public meeting
before Feb. %, 1854, to declare for a
new Republican party there was ef-
fective work done for it and the name
suggested more than two months
earlier.

The census.of 1890 shows that with
population Of %, 622, $50 souls there
was 20.612, 800 COMMITMENTS in all
the various Christianl churches. The
Catholic church then had, OF the total
number OF commandments, 6,257,s71.
That was not quite 80 per cent of the
communicates and just 10 per cent Of
the population. The New York In
dependent, a great and progressive
Protestant religious journal, takes
every year a-census OF the communi-
cants in all churches. Its figures for
the past year have just been published.
The total number is given at 25.919,-
027. and Of these just one-third or
$3.50, 600 are Catholics The popula-
tion Of the United States, according
to the Treasury statistics on January
|, 1895, was 73,725.000. This shows
that the number Of church commune
cants i much larger than in 1890. the
percentage as to population being
S5.3 per cent rs against less than so
Der cent. The population, according
to these figures, increased 10 per cent
the COMMITMENTS increased 26} per
cent and the catholic COMMITMENTS
increased 3s.4 per cent. Ii We divide
the increase between Catholic and
Protestant com aunicants we find an
increase Of IL, AN Is per cent for
the Protestant Ia1 over 5 Per cent
for the Catholics.

DOLE REACHES CHICAGO.
Reception of the Hawaiian President
An Interview.

An Interview.
Chicago, jar. 24.-President and Mrs.
Sanford b. Dole, Of Hawaii, arrived Sum
day morning. A distinguished party
greeted them. The federal government
was represented by Judge Grosscup,
United States District Attorney J. C.
Black and Hon. Thomas w. B. Cridler.
Of the state department. Mayor Harri-
son represented the city. The party
was driven to the Auditorium hotel.
In an interview President Dole dis
cussed freely conditions in the republic
of which he is the executive head, but
refused repeatedly to talk of the Ha-
waiian annexation question now before
congress. He stated in a most en-
phatic manner, however, that there was
absolutely no foundation for the
stories that Hawaii is being menaced
by Japan. President Dole discussed at
length the ocial and political features
of the isl; republic, talking interest
ingly of tariff, Honolulu's municipal
improvements and peculiarities, and
similar matters. The president thought
if the senate failed to ratify the annex
alton treaty that Hawaii was not strong
enough to fight any of the great pow
ers that might try to absorb the islands,
but believed the republic would con-
tinue indefinitely as all legislation for
some time past has been prepared with
that end in view.

in Wisconsin next fall Is not very
catering but they will make a vigor-

soundly but it thinks it can win the

that the state legislature, especially
the senate, will be the object Of an

A good deal has been said about the
large state tax this year. Republican
papers have quite generally explained
the political jugglery of the last dem
ocratic administration which has
made this tax necessary. What re-
publican officials should be censured
for, is carrying this deficit so long by
temporary makeshifts instead of ask
ing for tax to put the states financ-
es on proper footing. There is. how
ever considerable misunderstanding
as to the real amount of state tax.
About two-thirds of it comes back to
the county as school money and funds
for care OF insane, or more strictly
speaking, only one-third is ever paid
to the state treasurer. The several
items chargeable to Grant county are
as follows: State tax. $34, 1868 30;
School district loans, $1173 80; total
$35, 542. 10; less school money S12,-
094.S3 and care chronic insane $10,-
S6S.93, together $22, 95S.76, leav-
ing balance to be paid into the state
treasury OF $12,5S334.

The very considerable increase in
consumption OF sugar in the United
States during the past twelve months
points to the field which the beet
sugar enterprise in this country has
to fill. The sugar consumed during
the year 1897 was 2,096, 26O tons
against 1850, 0S6 tons in 1896, an in
crease OF 1861 tons. There We're
