FOUNDING COLONIES.
Eugene V. Debs' Scheme of Social
Democracy.


Arrangements have been perfected,
says the Washington Star, by Richard
j. Hinton, chairman of the colonlza-
ton commission of Eugene V. Debs
scheme of social democracy, for the
transfer to the commission of 100000
acres of land in Cumberland and Fen
tress counties in Tennessee. Col.
Hinton talked about the plans made
by the originators of this scheme.
"The Tennessee colony will be the
first organized by the social democra-
Cyl" he said. "This year it is the
purpose to open similar colonies in
Idaho and Washington. Indeed, it is
my intention, while in the west, to
conclude arrangements for the colo
MES in those states as well as for
that of Tennessee. The land which
we have, acquired in Tennessee cost
$1,750,O0O The Kentucky Trust Com
pany supplies the commission with
the money, accepting the commission
bond for $2,000,000. This will leave us
margin of $25O,000 with which 20
| inaugurate the colony.
"In establishing the Tennessee col
ony we shall make no effort to secure
! political control of the state, but we
| shall make that effort through the
colonies which we will establish In
the western states. Our purpose in
Tennessee will simply be to prove that
in favorable location in one of the
older states, home and security can be
! obtained by wage earners under a
system of collective ownership of the
lands. transportation facilities and
the machinery of production.
"Colonists for the settlement are
now being organized among the coal
and iron workers of northern Alaba-
ma. A small body of picked men will
soon be on the ground to prepare the
shelter for the colonists and provide
/ the means for support. When ready
the main colony will march from Biz
mingham to the reservation. By ear
ly summer next year we will have q
thousand families located. A corps
of experts will leave Washington in {
few days to make thorough investi
cation of the property. The corps Il
to comprise an architect, a builder, al
agricultural editor and a practical far
mer, an economic chemist, botanist
and a geologist. All the resources d
the territory we have acquired vii
be carefully noted, so that complete
and accurate information may be Civ
en- to the public.
The property is worth far more
than we paid for it, and as soon At
the colonists are settled upon it it
value will be at least doubled, perhap
trebled. The usrplus wealth whicl
we create will be deposited with tn
company which furnished us the mon
ey to start the enterprise. Every sin
gle member of the community will re
ceive for his labor, no matter what it
nature may be, labor check. whic'
he may either cash or exchange TO
goods of the community, as he ma

lage have already been prepared.
'In brief. the idea which we wi
develop is similar to that upon whic
the Shakers are organized, except th7
our organization is political and Their
, is religious"

SCROFULA
It is Foul BIood's Advertise
ment
But 1t Is Soon Cured by Hoods
SarsapariIIa.

Yes, Scrofula, II anything, may be called
the advertisement of foul blood. 1t is the
scourge OF the world offensive, painful,
facilitating, stubborn and well nigh
uncomfortable.
Outward applications do not cure, they
only drive the difficulty to new quarters
Emollients may palliate, they cannot
abolish the evil. There is but one sure
way out, and that is to eliminate the
faint from the blood.
There is one remedy that can effect this,
and it is the only One that, so far as we
know, has almost invariably succeeded -
even where the system has been poisoned
by long years of faint, and the ravages to
be repaired are tremendous. That remedy
is Hoods Sarsaparilla. Read this:
"My daughter was afflicted with I'M
pure blood. There were running sores
all over her body and they caused her
much suffering. We tried medicines that
were recommended as blood purifiers
but could not see that they did any good.
A friend told me about Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla and 1 began giving the girl this med
icine. The result was that she was per-
fectly cured after taking a few bottles
She has had no symptoms OF scrofula
sores since that time" MARIETTA M.
SMITH, South Middleboro, Mass.

Prompt Payment ola Big Sum

December 4th Rouse, Hazard & Co.
mailed their attorney at Chicago a
draft for $17,S10.96, payable to the
Western Wheel Works, that being the
amount which had been in litigation
between the two companies for sever
al years. The ability of Rouse, Haz-
ard & Co. to forward this large sum
just at this season of the year, when
the pay rolls and other expenses of
bicycle manufacturers are very large,
and receipts very small, is certainly a
most convincing evidence of the sol
vency of one of the oldest bicycle con-
Germs in the United States. OF the
manufacturers and jobbers of bicycles
who were in business when Rouse, Ha-
zard & Co. entered that line, more
than eighteen years ago, the number
that still exist can be counted on the
fingers. of one hand. Rouse, Hazard IL
Co. report that their present prospects
are the brightest of any time during
all the years they have been in bust
ness. They now have bona fide orders
from gilt edged concerns for larger
number of machines than they ever
had orders for at any one time.
The next Australia will bring us a
full line of these wheels. They will
have more than their share of up-to-
date features, and will make up the
most elegant line of 1898 wheels that
will be seen here this year. We shall
also receive line of Kensington's.' 1t

JUHTA'S ASSUMED AUTHORITY
PROCLAMATION TO CUBANS BY
GOVERNOR OF HAVANA
Likely to Find Himself Unseated
When Uncle Sans Commission
Gets Around That Way.

New York. Aug. 3O.--A special to the
Press from Washington says:
Although Havana is not yet evacuat-
ed by the Spaniards, the Cubans have
named their civil authorities. Senior
Gonzalo de Quesada, charge d'affaires
of the Cuban republic at Washington
has received from the Cuban republic
a proclamation to the people of Havana
issued and signed by DR.. Francisco
DomingueZ y Roldan, in his self-as-
sumed official capacity as civil COVER
nor of Havana, which is as follows:
The war is ended. The independ-
ence of Cuba, the aim of our revolu-
ton is fact. But the victory which
we have gained in this heroic struggle
would be lost if We did not proclaim as
fundamental principles of our nation
ality, harmony and fraternity among
all the Cubans. In the work of estab-
fishing more firmly in our fatherland
the republican institutions. Cuba asks
the aid of all her sons. With the apti-
tude. virtues and services of all, the
ideal of Cespedes and Marti will be-
come a reality.
Let us all unite in fraternal embrace
and, respecting the laws, let us proceed
to the reconstruction of our beloved
Cuba
This is signed: 'Dr. Francisco Do
minguez Roldan, Civil Governor of
Havana

mission finishes its work of providing
for the evacuation of Cuba and an

PACIFIC COAST GRASS.
Experiments Will Be Undertaken to
Restore the Ranges.

Washington, Aug. 9O.-Prof. Lamson-
Scribner, the agrostologist of the agricul-
tural department, has completed a six
weeks tour of investigation on the Paci-
fic coast and returned here. The inveSti-
cation looked to the extension of grass
experimental work to the other side of the
Rocky mountains which has heretofore
been the western limit in this service and
also to the imDlanting of sand binding
plants where the sand dunes sweep over
the land and partially engulfing telegraph
poles and fruit trees cause great damage.
The result of the investigation is 4 recon-
mendation for extending the former work
and for making practical demonstrations
of the feasibility of the sand binding
operations. One grass experiment station
under the direct operation OF the depart
ment is to be established probably near
Walla Walla, Wash. At Yakima, Wash.

GOSSIP OF HAVANA.
General Blanco's Birthday-Remains
of Columbus.

Havana, Aug. 3G.-GeneraI PandO, chief
of staff to General Blanco, who lately
returned from a voyage to Mexico and
other Central and South American cOun-
tries, where he went on a secret mission
to arouse sympathy for Spain. will return
TO Madrid tomorrow. He maintains
strict reserve as to me results of his
mission. His position here will be oc-
cupied by General SOlanO.
Tomorrow will be General BlancO'S
birthday. He celebrated il in advance
by a gift of a large sum to be used in
the purchase of food for distribution
among the local charitable institutions.
His generosity is much applauded.
The papers are greatly aSitated as to
the disposition of the remains of Column
bus. and it is understood that the Duke
of Veragua. the only living descendant
of the discoyerer of America. will request
the privilege of removing from the Ha-
vana cathedral and carrying to Spain,
there TO deposit them with the remains
of other illuStriouS SDaniardS. The gen.
eral impression is that the remains are
not to be included in the surrender.
Several insurgent leaders in the prov
ince of Pinar del Rio have issued cir
cuiars guaranteeing law and order and
promising safety to all who will return
TO their fields and farms. The CubanS in
that province have set an example which
will surely be followed elsewhere.
Today the council of secretaries re-
solver in view of the custom house regu-
lations. not to allow exemption from
duty the supplies brought on the Comal,
in charge of Captain Neil. Neither has
he any other legal recourse to secure ex-
emption.
The Spanish colonial authorities are
willing to take charge of the supplies
and distribute them themselves, paying
duties on account of the government at
the Havana custom house.

! General Wheeler has ordered him to get
| TO the bottom of all the things syhlch
| have been complained Of The subjects to
be investigator are: Why is the general
condition of the camp SO poor? Why do
the conditions that prevail present? Who
is responsible?
Why troops were sent to the camp be-
foro it was ready TO receive themY
Why, since this war, but one railroad
leading into the camp, boats Were not
used to carry men and provisions from
New York City?
Why needed medicines were not ordered,
or If they We're ordered why they were
not distributed?
Why the hospitals are crowded?
Why transports were allowed TO lie in
the harbor without supplies and relief
being sent out TO them?
There is dissatisfaction in the camp of
the rough riders. They are not satisfied
with the terms of the muster out. They
wanted to be treated as are the remainder
of the volunteers. The regulars, officers
and men are dissatisfied and want to be
sent back to garrison posts and stations
at once. -
The coming of President Mckinley is
anxiouSly awaited.
An effort viii be made to get the pres
ident to sanction changes which even the
secretary was not asked to make.
DIR. Sem thinks that within month
every person suffering from typhoid fever
in the camp will have recovered or died,
and by the time the conditions had begun
to look as If they had improved then will
come the period of greatest danger. The
precautions taken are almost useless, ac-
cofding to Dr. Sem.
According to DR. Sem the men who
went from Chickamauga and the others
to Porto Rico were already IN the stages
of typhoid fever before their departure for
the West Indies He says the germs had
begun to propagate in them. If the men
could be got home and receive home COM
fort they would have escaped. but ex-
posed to the hardships of a campaign they
easily succumbed. DIR. Sem thinks the
best thing to do is to hurry the troops
away from Montauk and reduce the camp
as rapidly possible.
DR.. Brown, who is the executive head
of the general hospital, differs with DIR.
Sem and says there is little or no dang
ers, that the precautions are ample and
that at the worst il would take months
for the conditions DR.. Sem foretells TO
prevail.
The steamboat Shinnecock has been
chartered by the war department and will
be used as a hospital ship to transport the
sick from the camp hospitals to the city
hospitals. She arrived tonight.

PORTO RICO,S CLIMATE.
Conditions Which Bring About Sick
ness of Our Troops.

Washington, Aug. 30.-Surgeon Gen
eral Sternberg says that it is true there
is sickness in Porto Rico, but it is not
alarming. From the volume issued by
the military bureau of information the
following regarding the climate of
Porto Rico is taken:
In August a SufTocating heat reigns
throughout the day and at night it is
useless to seek for GOODNESS; a faint
zephyr is succeeded by a calm of sew
eral hours. The atmosphere is heavy
and oppressive and the body, weakened
by perspiratiOn, becomes languid. The
appetite fails and the mosquitoes buzz
zing about the ears by day and night
perpleX and annoy by their stings,
while the fevers of the tropics attack
Europeans with sudden and irresist-
IDLE violence. This is the most sickly
season for the European. The Their
mometer frequently exceeds 80 de-
greeS.''
1t is probably climatic conditions
which is causing sickness among the
troops in Porto Rico Some time ago
orders We're issued directing that all
troops not actually needed in the island
should be sent home. and some of the
troops in Porto Rico have been ordered
home to be mustered out

SHROUDED IN MYSTERY.
Spaniards Put to the Sword or Lost
at Sea,

Tacoma, Wash, Aug. 3g.-The Hong
kong Daily Press is authority for the
statement that 900 Spaniards, includ-
ing 10 priests, lost their lives several
weeks ago when the Spanish gunboat
Leyte was captured by a vessel belong
ing to Admiral Dewey'S squadron. The
Leyte had been stationed in an ad-
joining island, where the insurgents
We're numerous and aggressive. The
latter were gaining ground rapidly,
causing 900 Spaniards to board the
cape from the natives, who would mas
Sacre them.
The gunboat Leyte undertook to tow
these three transports to Manila bay,
where the Spaniards aboard them We're
to surrender to Admiral Dewey, if
they did not succeed in landing some
where and reaching Manila under cover
of darkness. After the Leyte had
towed them down Pampangas river
and some distance along the coast, a
heavy storm came up, making it nee
eSsary for the gunboat TO cut her tOws
loose and proceed to Manila for as
sistance. Before getting there she was
captured by the Americans the next
day, and an American vessel was dis
patched to find the three transports,
but failed to discover any trace of
them. The natives on the adjoining
coast say they saw nothing of any
vessels. The Hongkong Press finally
reached the conclusion that the vessels
fOundered with all on board.
