Does Baby
! hrive?

If your baby is delicate
and sickly and its food does
not nourish it, put fifteen
or twenty drops of SCOTS
Emulsion in its bottle three
or four times a day and you
will see a marked change.
We have had abundant
proof that they will thrive
on this emulsion when other
food fails to nourish them.
It IS the same with larger
children that are delicate.
SCOTS Emulsion seems to Be
the element lacking in their

your children do not thrive.
It is as useful for them il

AND row it is reported that some Of
the astute continental powers of Europe
have conceived the more or less brilliant
idea OF turning the Monroe doctrine
to their own advantage by giving due
notice to this country that any effort
upon Its part to extend its system to
the Asiatic continent will be deemed a
menace to their peace and safety and
cannot be permitted. If any move
ment was contemplated by the United
States against any territory In Europe
for purposes Of conquest and dominion,
there would be some cause for q Euro
pean alliance in opposition, but none
Of the continental powers of Europe
have ever been constituted guardians
Of Asiatic territory or institutions to
such an extent - to warrant any in
reference with any opportunities fol
territorial and commercial expansion
which the exigencies Of war have
placed within the grasp of the United
States. Not word has yet been Civ.
en- out by our government as to its
ultimate purposes in the Philippines.
Whatever may be the final determlna-
ton of the matter the question Of their
retention as q permanent possession Is
not in the least question Of right bat
altogether one of expediency, and
neither European advice nor covert
threats are likely to influence our gov
ernment's decision upon this point
We discarded our swaddling clothes
long ago and are quite able to 60 Il
alone.

The OlDcial Paper Of San Juan County
THURSDAY, JULY q, 1893.
REAL DEMOCRATS NOT WANTED.

A Democratic state convention to
consist, nominally, OF AT delegates,
has been called to meet at Ellensburg
September 8. Possibly the unusually
late date has been fixed to give the
committee time for the difficult task OF
rounding up enough Democrats in the
state to serve as delegates. 1t appears
that this county is expected to furnish
five. There probably are that many OF
the "Old Democracy" in the county,
but they would be as much out OF place
in the Ellensburg convention as bull
in q china shop. It is not the old
fashioned, conservative, simon pure
Democrats who are wanted there
still firm in the faith of Jefferson and
Jackson, IS it is commonly though In
some degree enormously understood;
still clinging to the old Democratic
ideas of~strict constitutional costruc-
ton; still opposing territorial extern
sion, internal improvements and any
tariff except for revenue; and, what is
of more importance perhaps than all
else, still solid as rock in support of
sound money and sound and stable
system of national finance. No, the
men who have been and still are DEM
ocrats from principle rather than for
spoils are not wanted in the aggrega-
ton that has been called to assemble at
Ellensburg. The old Democratic party
is in eclipse; its principles have become
traditions only, and the livery OF its
founders has been stolen to serve the
ends Of the::worst political charlatans
whom the century has brought forth.
Across it's face is flying now the 1urid
comet Of Populism, tapping in its wake
a brazen tail of free silver, free trade,
fat money, single tax, or no tax, pa
ternalism, socialism, reputation and
retrogression. And hanging to this
conglomerate tail. wildly kicking at all
men and all things, are all the worst
forces of discord and discomfort in the
United States, whose natural abiding
place is in the shadows Of old world
despotisms, rather than in the sun
light of our broad and liberal institu-
tions. The men who are wanted at
the Ellensburg convention are the men
who will whoop it up for a fusion of all
the elements opposed to progress and
to Republican government-fusion for
the spoils Of Office, nothing more and
nothing less; who will beg for the re-
nomination to congress Of the arch
mountebank of state politics, Lieut.
Col" ]. Ham Lewis, whose insuffer-
able vanity has made him the laugh
ing stock of Washington and whose
interest in the "masses" is limited to
their votes; who will declare them
selves in favor of fsee silver, govern
ment control of railways and tele-
graphs, and q score of other more or
less dangerous political vagaries which
honest Democrats know to be illusions
but In which honest Populists believe.
Possibly there may be found five DEM
ocrats in this county willing to 60 over
to Ellensburg and allow themselves to
be used as cats-paws by the monkeys of
the fusion machine, but We doubt it.
To Democrat who still has an abiding
faith in the old principles Of his party
1t must seem like adding Insult to in
Jury to use its historic name in such a
cause.

Two Remarkably Sad Deaths.

MIR. EDITOR: With sorrow we chronicle
the death Of both husband and wife which
happened to-day. Rev. p. G. Hopper
and wife, Mrs. Mary Mccarthy Hopper,
who have been sick with typhoid fever
for four weeks, quietly passed away. At
1880 a. 10. Mrs. Hopper, then at ll:55 p.
m. Mr.. Hopper breathed his last. Bro.
Hopper was born at Blacksburg, 8. G,
April 3rd 1868. He has been in the
ministry for about ten years, during
which time he labored two years in
North Carolina and the balance in his
own State. He came to his present field
(Little River and First Creek Churches)
from Louisville, Ky. about sixteen
months ago, and has made many warm
friends. 1t is a great shock 70 us indeed.
Mrs Hopper was born at Forest city,
N. c., was about thirty-one years of sge
and has been faithful helpmeet to him
for eight years. The leave two children,
Broadus, a bright boy of five, who is at
present sick but slowly improving from
fever, and baby, one year old, a little
girl. These will be cared for by kind
friends at present. Their bodies have
been embalmed and will be carried to
Bnffalo Church, near Blacksburg, for
ipterment. Brother Hopper leaves two
