A NEW CURE FOR PNEUMONIA.
The Cincinnati Enquirer gives a, mo

The Cincinnati Enquirer gives most
interesting account of a new cure for
pneumonia, the cases treated have been
in Cincinnati. The account reads:
Some times progressive medical men
turn back the pages of science and re-
vive systems and treatments scoffed
into disuse and which under different
conditions are proved to be true and
efEcacious in spite of existing preju
dices. Bleeding, so extensively resorted
to a half century ago by physicians
throughout the civilized globe, has long
been discontinued, falling under the
bane of scientists. who saw in the pro-
cess a barbarous method too dangerous
in the after effects to be further coun-
tenanced Then, too, the law of sep
sis was little known, and the few who,
in spite of prejudice, c!ung to their ia
vorite method. we're tabooed by the pro-
fession at large. Bleeding fell into
complete disuse and was relegated 10

substitute for the lost poison charged

that the patients head became clearer,
the congestion being taken off the
brain. In one case two quarts Of blood
were taken from one patient without
any bad effect but temporary weak

GOVERNOR WEST PRAISES UTAH

Governor West will always keep a
warm place in his big heart for Utah
and her people. In a recent letter from
Kim to a gentleman in this city, he
says:

Wells. and would have been proud to

ent war: yet as this privilege has been
denied me. and the duty copfided to

the foe. AS to the courage and capacity
of Jtah,s soldiers | have no doubt. No
matter how superior the guns forged
for modern warfare, the intelligent
manhood of Utah has kept pace with
the Improvement, and doss not lack the
courage to man it's own, and oppose

MORE SPANISH TREACHERY.


On the night of Feb. 10, 1898, the
United States battleship Maine was
blown up in Havana as the result Of
Spanish treachery. That event pre-
cipitated the war, and it should have
proven to all Americans that Spanish
faith is far worse than Punic faith
could be.
After the battle at Manila the white
flag was hoisted at Cavite, but it was
treacherously used, though, fortunately,
no harm resulted to our men, though
considerable quantities Of military
stores were removed. Now comes an
other story from Manila that Spanish
priests and nuns tried to decoy one or
TWO of the American vessels into a
channel that was mined, but which
they represented to be free from mines.
If there were sisters of charity with
the priests who attempted this treach-
cry it is very certain that they were
not parties to any intended crime, but
We're there because ordered to be, not
knowing the purpose for which they
were called out; they were employed to
deceive the Americans. This story
lacks confirmation, but it is probably
true. The incident is of a piece with
the conduct of Captain Sostoa at Ca
vite fort. What those who are trying
to work these treacheries deserve is the
treatment that is given spies-hang-
ing. A Spaniard who will attempt such
treachery as was attempted by these
should, when caught, be summarily
dealt with. The only way to teach
them proper observance of the usages
of modern warfare is to hang a few of
them. The immediate effect on them
would be splendid and the example SAL
utary on all possessing such tendencies.

WAR POEM.

Strike for the Anglo-Saxon.
Strike for the Never Da-,
Oh, strike for Heart and strike for Brain
And sweep the Beast away.
Not only for our sailors
The heroes of the Maine
But strike for all the victims
OF Moloch- minded Spain.
Not only for the Present.
But ali the bloody Past.
Oh. strike for all the martyrs
That have their hour at last.
Old stronghold OF the Darkness,
Como, ruin it with light,
1t is no fight of small revenge,
It's an immortal fight.
Spain is an ancient dragon.
That all too long hath curled
Its coils Of blood and darkness
About the newborn world.
Think of the Induisitionl
Think of the Netherlands,
Yea, think of all Spain's bloody deeds
In many times and lands.
And let no feeble pit"
Your sacred arms strain.
This is Gods mighty moment
To make an end Of Spain.

STATE PRESS COMMENT.

Commenting on Senator Cannoh's re-
cent letter to the silver Republicans OF
Utah, the Standard says: There are
many Republicans who had hoped that
the senator's free trade speech in oppo-
sition to the Dingley bill was an error
committed because of the strong silver
fi=ht made at the time in the United
States senate, and that the senator would
again rally around the cause of protec-
ton. But the letter casts aside ali hopes
for the senator's future. so far as pro-
tectionists are concerned"
