several years before the outbreak of
her present civil war 100000 tons of
iron ore and 10000 tons of manganese,
amounting to 50. 1000 900 in value, were
annually produced for export at San
tiago de Cuba mines at the eastern
end of the island
There are more than 200 excellent
ports in Cuba.
1t is little wonder that the Cuban
patriot handles the machete well, as
he is trained to its use from his earli-

short, it fulfills every purpose, great
and small, for which cutting tool is
required. In his private quarrels he
uses it with deadly effect, and face to

that in his machete he has weapon
which he knows and which will not
fail him.
The boxes in which the Cuban cigar
manufacturers pack their fragrant
wares are made from the native cedar
cut on the mountain slopes.

THE AMEN CORNER.

DEAR FRIENDS wish to cOmmu-
nicate my life experience to as many
people of the present and future, as l
possibly can.
My object in writing is to bring
you good tidIngs of great joy
l know what / do know, and am not
only ready and willing, but anxious to
testify to the sanctifying power of the
Holy Spirit.
a person may have opinions favor
ing or denouncing a theory or fact;
but when he knows by experience
that he is dealing with fact-on
for knowledge.
A person may be skeptical about
the reality of electricity and its effects
on the human body; but when he
knows of its reality and effects by eX-
perience, there are no more doubts in
regard to those properties.
There was time when / did not
believe in sanctificatien till death. /
now know that God viii bestow this
with his conditions.
1t is Gods richest blessing, and he
gives it freely to all who believe in it
and consecrate their all to his service.
Is it abiding? Yes; if we abide in
the vine. Does it save? Yes: it is
s::The peace of God that passeth all
understanding.
Why is it not better understood by
the world? Read Psalms 25-14
Nhv do Sn MANY nannIa a.. II nd
live their old lives over? Because
they never had it, or having had it
failed to abide in the vine.
Can the possessor commit known
sin? Yes; if he abide not in the vine
Can he loose it? Yes: if he abide not
in the vine.
What is it like? 1t is to the sin
sick soul what the warm, gentle,
genial showers are to withered vege-
tation. What will it do for you? 1t
will do that for you that you have
been trying to do for yourself, and
find yourself unable to do.
Be more explicit? Very well: it is
fully capable of saving the drunkard,
the libertine. and the opium-eater
And it is capable of saving with an
everlasting salvation
And the nice thing about it is that
it removes evil desires and passions,
and gives pure desires and aspirations.
Does my own experience justify me
in making such assertions? and do /
believe the vilest sinner in Trego
county or elsewhere may receive this
blessing through belief and consecra-
tion?
Yes and yes; and if I am trying to
deceive you MAY my tongue cleave
to the roof of my mouth, and my right
hand forget her cunning"
To obtain specification, one must
seek it in Gods way. Conversion
must precede sanctification.
Don't think of carrying the burdens
of another with you when you go to
God for this blessing.
You must feel that you have more
of your very own than you can bear.

Michael Ratchford, formerly coal
miner from North Lawrence, and for
some years past the head of the Miners
Union in this state, recently received an
appointment through the influence oi
Congressman Tayler. Mr.. Ratchford is
now repaying Mr.. Tayler for his kindly
offices, by issuing letter to his former
laboring friends, and the laboring men
generally, calling on them to vote for
Mr.. Tayler's reelection. Ra' chford has
long since ceased to abor with his hands
and has joined the Hanna.I ayler combi.
nation, because he has found it more
profitable for Ratchford. But really,
how much does Ratchford care now for
the laboring men. We do not believe
that many laboring men will be fooled
into the Hanna camp by Ratchford's
appeal. "A burnt child is afraid of the
fire." 1t will be we'll for the laborine
men OF the 18th district to go little
slow on Bobby Tayler.

HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING THE RAPID
INCREASE OF HEART TROUBLES.
Do Not BE Alarmed, But Look For tn,
Cause.

Do Not BE Alarmed, But Look For the
Cause.
Heart troubles, at least among Ameri-
cans, are certainly increasing and while
this may be largely due to the excitment
and worry Of American business lite, it
IL more otten the result of weak stom
achs, of poor digestion.
Real, organic heart disease is incur
able; but not one case iu hundred is
organic.
The close relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion is b7cause
both organs are controlled by branches
of the same great nerves, the Sympathe.
TIC and PneumogastriC.
In another way, also the heart Is
affected by that form Of poor digestion,
which causes gas and fermentation from
nalf digested food; there is feeling of
oppression and heaviness in the chest
caused by pressure of the dislended
stomach on the heart and lungs, inter
fering with their action; hence arises
pdlpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
makes it thin and watery, which irri,
tates and weakens the heart.
lie mOsJ SeublDle tI6atInenJ lOr ueaTl
trouble is to improve the digestion and
to insure the prompt assimilation OF
food.
This can be best done by the regular
use after meals, of some safe, pleasant
and effective digestive preparation, like
StuaTt's Dyspepsia Tablets, which may
be found at most drug stores and which
contain valuable, harmless digestive
clements in plea ant, convenient form

Commissioner Johnson was asked as
to when, according to his understand.
ing, the contract had been cancelled.
Last June he replied. NJ depository,
October 27, 1898,
Come now, Mr.. Johnson, was that
your understanding Was that the un.
derstaDding of your associates, Craw.
ford, Summer and Reed2 Tit was, why
did you pass set of resolutions on
October IL, calling upon the prosecut-
ing attorney to help you out Of the pre-
dicament in which you had placed your.
selves. The fact is, Mr.. Johnson, you
know, your associates know, and the
people know that when you made the
statement that your understanding was
that the contract was cancelled last June
you made statement contradicted by
your own previous official actions, as
well as that Of your official associates,
Crawford, Summer and Reed.

The candidates seeking reelection are
going about the county telling their Re-
publican friends that all this $40 0OO
talk is simply an electioneering scheme
to defeat the Republican candidates for
reelection. But the admission of the
county commissioners and Reed himself
ought to be conclusive evidence, to say
nothing about Cancelled contracts" to
every fair minded voter, that not a
single charge has been made either
through the press or on the stump that
cannot be substantiated.

"Wheat goes up and down." says a
Sunday gold organ that used to stand
for Mckinley and silver and denounce
Cleveland.
Why, yes, "up and down." being
sometimes plentier and sometimes
scarcer, and then again in greater or less
demand.
So with silver. For years prior ia
1873 it was in advance of gold, and as a
rule, huctuated less than gold
These poor gold spaniel organs and
tools would like farmers to think that
the war on silver has had nothing to dc
with the decline in prices, Farmers
know too that land has declined with
silver bullion Why will not these
organs tell the truth2 They must think
that farmers are fools. Farmers are moi
hirelings to serve gold magnates who
rob them.

TOR CONFEDERATION.

One OF the most serviceable and best
managed departments Of our general
government is the postoffice branch, but
the question comes up and has been up
for long years, why the railroads should
:harge the government eight cents a
pound for carrying the mails when they
performed the same service for the ex.
press companies for little over one
cent pound.
But for this costly railway service the
department would be self supporting.
rhe deficit is annually exucted from the
people by taxation. The story of the
Union Pacific is another case in point
where the government has been used
and the people been robbed. The
government is the agent Of the people,
and the agent sometimes plays false
and betrays. The question is gradually
coming to the front, shall certain cor.
porations continue to own and use
the government and so rob the people;
or, shall the government own their
ines and 60 protect the people. The
lawlessness OF these corporations in di s.
regarding others rights, interfering with
people in every way through the courts
by injunctions and otherwise, and in
elections through the use Of money
raises the question: "Can corporate
capital be made subject to lawH"
1t must be seen that the danger in
this country is that anarchy of invested
capital working under privilege by
franchise. Iu these cases in most in
stances, the franchise manipulatort
have not furnished the capital, but they
have had the craft to get 1t from the
people in some way. The American
people are becoming alarmed at the
situation and we'll they may. Gu.
people should arouse to the danger anC
act unitedly.
