So does an honorable nation protect
her subjects even if they are under our

The hero of Appomattox, President
Grant, assembled our fleet at Pensacola,
ordered General Sickles to demand of
Spain all apology by saluting our flag, to
punish all the assassins, TO restore the
steamer, and pay idemnity to the heirs
of the murdered, and damages to the
living.
Right at that time, as now, the stool;
jobbers and money gamblers said stop

Spain commenced lying, deceitful dip

Spain paid the pa.try sum of $685. in

Spain did not punish the bloody beast
General Barilo, but gave him grea

General Sickles, after his life was
threatened, resigned in disgust, and the
incident closed
No. you may rest easy. There will be
no war with Spain. The money power
today is ten times more potent than il
was in 1873.
That the crew of the Maine were assas

knows this better than the President But
he will never fix the responsibility on the
Spanish government We could very
easily do it, but Mark Hanna, j. J. Nc.
Cook, and the agents of the Spanish
bondholders say no and that will close
the incident after a long and deceitful
controversy Cuba will be free, but not
until the Spanish bonds are secured. We
must intervene i'll such yay that we
become indirectly responsible fer these

This carnival of death, starvation, aud
horror, must go on until the rainy season

Pyramid Pile Cure Cures Piles Quickly.
Painiessly, Without Danger.

People go along for years suffering
with piles. They try this and that and
the other thing from carrying buck
eye to getting treatment from ply
stefan. They obtain temporary rellet,
maybe, but they are never quite cured.
A little strain in lifting, excessive Ia
tigue, little constipation or a little
diarrhoea and the piles come back
They don't seem to amount to much,
but they Danish sleep and appetite.
No position is comfortable. There IS
intense local pain and that dreadful
feeling of weight in the perineum.
Maybe in the early stages some OF
the many slaves on sale will afford
temporary relief. If the case is of long
standing there is only one speedy and
sure remedy. It is Pyramid Pile Cure
Even in light cases it is the safest
thing to use. Other applications may
cure and may not Pyramid Cure IS
always certain, always reliable, al
ways brings comfort at once. Its
prompt use saves months of suffering.
In extreme cases it will save surgical
operations, and their attendant dan
gers and discomforts. 1t is better than
a knife. Will cure easier, quicker and
safer. Thousands have used it. Thou
sands have been cured by it. Inc
cost is trifling compared with what 1t
does. The price is so cents. Most
anybody would gladly pay ten dollars
to be rid of piles.
All druggists sell Pyramid Pile Cure.

BRIDGEPORT VOTERS
To Be Called Upon to Pass on I'M
proVements.
A Comprehensive Plan to Issue
Bonds for Street Paving and
General Improvements-T Mat
ter Has Been Agitated for Some
Time Past.

The Council of the village of Bridge
port held a called meeting yesterday
evening for the purpose of considering
the subject of collecting of toll on the
National pike within the corporation,
also the submission of the question of
issuing bonds for the paving and i'm
proving Of the streets of the village
TO the voters to be voted on at the next
general election. The question of is
suing bonds for the paving of the
streets has been agitated at various
times for several months but always
met with good deal of opposition
In the past few days the matter has
been worked at in quiet manner.
Last evening, however, there was
large number of citizens present at the
meeting.
The resolution is entitled resolu-
ton to repair and improve the streets
in the village by grading and paving
the same with hard brick, and states
that the bond issue is not to exceed
100000, and is to be paid in twenty
annual installments. The interest
rate which the bonds are to bear is
5 per cent.
The streets designated in the reso-
luton to be paved are Bank, Morgan
National pike, Ohio Valley pike, Lee,
DeKalb, Marion, Sumpter, Green
Jacquet, Whiteley, Bennett, Howard
Hail. Platt, Oak, Lincoln avenue,
Chase avenue, First, Second, Fourth
and Fifth streets in Aetnaville. After
some discussion on the matter the res
olution was passed without dissent
ing vote.
The proposition to issue these bonds
is not looked on in a very favorable
light by large number of citizens
and it will take some good hard work
to carry it through when it comes TO
voting on it.
1t was the intention Of Council to try
and reach some kind Of an agreement
with the County Commissioners in re-
gard to the one mile of pike within the
limits of the town, but owing to the
complicated manner which the matter
assumed nothing was done with the
exception that the Commissioners, act
ing in accordance with the wishes Of
Council, decided to allow the offer
they made Council some time ago re-
main open until after the election,
when the matter of the bond issue
would be determined.
Commissioner Wise was present and
stated that owing to the poor condi-
ton in which the B., B. & M. F. street
car company kept their track out the
pike that it was impossible for them
to keep the other part of the pike in
good condition. The question arose
here as to whether Council or the
Commissioners had the authority to
make the company comply with their
agreement. Mr.. Wise did not know,
neither did Council. Here the matter
rests.
