Cornstalk Disease.

CHAMBERsBURG, Pa, Dec. 19.-Veterina-
rian J. j. Repp, Of Philadelphia, who has
been making an investigation of the disease
among cattle in the western and northwestern
sections of Franklin county, has made public
the result of his inquiry. He finds the disease
to be toxasmia maids, or ''cornstalk dis
ease.
1t was thought that the disease was an cpl
demic of anthrax, which is not only fatal to
CATTLE but to human beings, whenever it at
tacks the latter.
Dr. Repp says the ''cornstalk'' disease has
only recently been made the subject of inves-
tigation in the United States and that its
origin has not yet been fully established.
Some authorities claim it is caused by mi
crobes; others say it is produced by a fungus,
which grows on the leaves and stem of the
cornstalk He recommends that fodder be
fed sparingly to cattle until they become ac-
customed to 1t. The case is reported of a
steer that died ON the farm of B. +. Newton,
at Pleasant Hall, this county. Veterinarians
who made an investigation, fearing the dis
ease was anthrax, say they found nearly two
quarts of sand in the animals stomach.

'THE FAMILY. This is the title of beautifully
and handsomely printed pamphlet writted by Rev.
L. NJ. Zimmerman, A, NJ, F. S. Sc, of Baltimore
and native of Manchester district, this county
Mr.. Zimmerman has written much lately, among
his productions being 1.-The Little Grave" Daily
Bread for Daily Hunger" Sunshine" and Paths
That Cross He is graceful writer, and all of his
productions carry the reader to higher realization
of his duty to man and God. 1.-THE Family is
series of short essays the family the mother. the
father, the sister, the brother the children, the
mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, and modern
society's demands upon its youth. The duties OF
each are well set forth and homes would be homes
indeed if the authors advice were needed children
would be sources of pride and joy, and be nseful
men and women; sisters and brothers would ADD
sunshine to the home.
This latest production of Mr.. Zimmerman's is not
written with that that he usually besows upon
his writings At the end of the chapter on Ia
ther.' he has omitted word in quoting st. Luke,
H. 90 and there is an awkward introduction OF 8
quotation from Longfellow's Psalm OF Life, ut
the close of the chapter on Modern societys De-
mands Cpon It's Youth"

The United States sent about q, 900 men to
Cuba to drive out about 100000 Spaniards.
The mission was successful. After the first
struggle Spain agreed to give up the island.
And, we were told the popuace welcomed the
appearance of the United States soldiers, thus
Indicating an early qualification of the is
land. Now we are told by army officers who
have appeared before the military committees
of the Senate and House that an army of so,
900 men are necessary to restore order and
give peace and security to Cuba. In other
words-22, 600 soldiers were sufficient to drive
out 10000 Spaniards, but it will take SO,
900, more than double, to subdue the Cubans.
This does not look like the Cubans took
kindly to United States interference.

Mr. Smith has served about eight years IN

an exceedingly popular candidate because
he is the originator of Ithe free school pooN

DIR. Herring has served two terms IN the

The Treaty Rejected then What ?

The Sentinel, once an opponent OF the ex'
pansion of the territory of The Omitted States,
is now gradually falling in with Mckinley's
policy of imperialism. 1t took up the matter
last week, and thought it dealt the opponents
of expansion crushing blow, when it asked
what they proposed to do with the islands
ceded in the treaty OF peace
The answer is very simple: Do with the
Philippines. the Sula islands and Porto RICO
lust what we have pighted our faith to do with
Cuba-assist the natives in restoring order
and quiet help them to organize a govern
ment and turn the islands over to them.
In this view of the matter, it does not seem
right that the United States should pay SPAN
$40. 600, 900 for the Philippines, and therefore
the treaty of peace should be rejected by the
Senate. The policy of this government could
then be formulated and set forth by resolu-
lions bv Congress, declaring the purpose OF
this Government to be to pacity the Philip
hines. the Sulas and Porto Rico, to and IN es
,ablishing stable governments and then 10 turn
the islands over to the natives. All these IS
lands could be he held by us for these puf-
noses inst as we are now holding Cuba. The
treaty of peace should have simply required
Snain TO renounce her sovereignty IN THESE
islands. 1t would have been better, indeed
b.d the United States not lntertered WIN
either the Philippines, the Sulas and For.o
Rico. and confined operations within 'he
scope of the declaration of war.
The rejection of the treaty does not imply
renewal of hostilities with Spain. That
mower is crushed, with no means to carry on
war We demanded the cession of Cuba
without compensation. Why then did the
Mckinley Administration offer $4,000 900
for the Philippines? If we could demand
one we could also demand the other. we
were as much in possession of the Philippines
rs we were of Porto Rico.
The treaty ought to be rejected the former
Spanish possessions held until the natives are
in a position to form a government OF their
own. and treaty of peace, if one Is really
needed. can be as well arranged through the
ordinary diplomatic agencies as by spec"
commission.

Is He Loyal /?

1t may become necessary TO inquire into
President McKinley's loyalty. He has been
travelling and speaking in the South, along
with some of his Cabinet and some Generals
of the army, including Shafter and Wheeler,
the latter the famous Elk Confederate Cavalry
commander. The President has said some
nice things about the former rebels and of the
unity that was brought about by the late war,
and the ex.rebels have cheered the President
lound and long. At Macon the ex-rebels ac-
tually put Confederate badge on the Pres-
dent and he had to wear it. His loyalty is
open to serious suspicion.

And the twilight shadows fall,
And we count our dearest loved ones.
Praying God to bless them all;
When the evening meal is ready,
And we look around us there,
We shall shed tear of SORROW
AS we view their vacant chairs.
But Il voice comes from that silence,
All so sweetly, all so plain,
You shall meet your dearest loved ones,
In the fields of light again.
They safe within my keeping,
You shall surely find them there,
Free from sorrow, free from weeping,
Home without a vacant chair.
