Were the Democrats In Congress In Be-
half of Cuban Liberty.
Ex-senator Hill of New York recent
ly delivered speech in Brooklyn from
which we excerpt the following:
"The achievements and glories of
the recent war with Spain belong not
to any political party, but to the whole
country. This fact should be every
where conceded; but if there is dis
position to inject partisanship in the
consideration of the inception or re-
suits Of that war, we need not shirk
from comparison with our oppo-
nents. We may recall the plain facts
of history. The people have not for
gotten the great struggle in the halls
of congress less than year ago
which preceded the declaration of war
the fact that, with a few honorable
exceptions, all the earnest pleas for in
tervention in behalf Of Cuban liberty
were uttered by Democratic leaders;
the arbitrary refusal for months of
Republican speaker, backed by the
dominant majority, to even consider
the Cuban question at all; the steady.
persistent and determined efforts Of
the Democratic minority to force this
question to the front aided by the
powerful Democratic press of the
country and backed by the patriotic
sentiment of the people, until at last
their efforts were crowned with sue
cess, and halting and reluctant ad-
ministration was forced to inaugurate
a war in behalf of humanity and civil
ization to which it was at heart op-
posed. You have not forgotten the
cold and unsympathetic message of
President Mckinley in December last
opposing Cuban Intervention of any
kind, exaggerating the difficulties in
the way, and unnecessarily remind g
congress and the people Of our ntu-
trail obligations. You have not Dr.
gotten the attitude of Senat' Ha' a,
the Warwick of the present adminis-
tration, as well as the heac of its
financial syndicate-fresh from his
senatorial triumph at Columbus, pur-
chased by bribery and corruption. who
sent to the president in his answer to
his congratulatory telegram the ia
nous, or rather infamous, message;
God reigns and the Republican party
still lives and who, with tears in his
eyes, was pleading at Washington for
peace at any price, and lamenting the
threatened disturbance of the business
interests of the country by so unnec-
essary war;
Neither need I remind you of the
dire predictions and lamentations of
other Republicans high in the coun-
ellis Of the party, who. in those mo-
mentous days, were seeking to stem
the tide of popular enthusiasm which
was sweeping over the land, and pro-
testing that their party was being
dragged into an unholy foreign war
by their unscrupulous opponents"
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1898-10-27


PRESIDENT Mckinley said in his
recent speech at st. Louis, "the
money in circulation was larger on
the first Of July, 1898, than it has
ever been" 1t has often been said
that Mr.. Mckinley was a good
church member and an honest
man. IF this is so, partisan ex-
podiency and political desperation
should not make him lose this So
called reputation by willfully falsi-
flying facts. Mr.. McKinley's po-
litical trip to Omaha has left in its
trial the earmarks of Alger and
Hanna tactics.

McK1NIEy's white WI ashing COM

MCKINLEY's white washing COM
mission is the best evidence of the
weakness of his administration.
The deep and smarting wound to
the nation lies In the people being
compelled to witness its chief exec
utive descend to the flimsy pretext
of investigating itself. The humili-
ating memory that President
seeks to shield those whom he
should punish, and appointed this
commission without any authority
In order to forestall a Congressional
investigation is burning disgrace
and an open shame.

In the name of all that's good, what
does it mean, this donation of money
by private individuals to feed and

should Helen Gould or John Smith or

to buy needed supplies for the heroes

Atlantic coast? The government has
thousands of millions in its treasury.

INSULTED LADIES.
Frank Foppiano Will Have to Ex-

Yesterday afternoon Chief of Police
Dwyer was informed by telephone that
a man was acting most indecently in
the presence of ladies on Eighth street,
between G and III.
He went up in the patrol wagon, but
the fellow saw 1t coming and hid him
self. Scarcely had it returned to the
Police Station, however, when another
message came, saying that the man
was repeating his actions. Chief
Dwyer jumped into buggy with w. j.
Hall and drove quickly to the spot, and
caught the fellow in the act. He ran
away but the Chief, who is a sprinter
himself, caught him and took him down
to the station. He proved to be Frank
FOppiano, who keeps a bootblack stand
on Ninth street, between J and K. At
the station he admitted his guilt to
Chief Dryer and others.
Last winter there were complaints
from High School girls that Foppiano
insulted them and Chief Dwyer laid
traps for him, but could not catch him
in the act. This time he had better

DR.. HarlandSon recommends as the
safest and surest cure for sour stom-
ach (acid dyspesia) an excellent prep
aration sold by druggists under the
name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
These tablets are large twenty grain
lozenges, very pleasant to taste and
contain the natural acids, peptones and
digestive elements essential to good d.
gestion, and when taken after meals
they digest the food perfectly and
promptly before it has time to ferment
sour and poison the blood and nervous
system

uses Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in all
cases of stomach arrangements and
finds them certain cure not only for
sour stomach, but by promptly digest
ing the food they create a healthy ap-
petite, increase flesh and strengthen
the action of the heart and liver. They
are not cathartic, but intended only
for stomach diseases and weakness and
will be found reliable in any stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach.
