Merit Means Money Mndc.

You cannot advertise money out of neo-
pies pockets all the tine: you may 10 it
now and then. but if you don't give them
something of absolute merit in return.
advertising will never prove successful.
The kind of advertising that pays is ad-
vertising a good thing. AS it has merit
the people will use it again and again.
Never has this been better illustrated
than in the great success of Cascarets
candy cathartic, that we have been lately
advertising in this paper. All druggists
call Cascarets repeaters; that is, people
who tuy them like them, and buy
them again and recommend them to
their friends. Cascarets are guaranteed
to cure constipation or money refunded,
and are a delightful laxative ard liver
stimulant; the best medicine ever made.
We recommend all our readrs to try
them.

Mild Winter In Russia.

Not within living memory has there
been known so abnormally snowless a
winter in European Russia as the sea-

of these southern attitudes, says an

of nearly 1000 miles northward, there
is only here and there the merest
sprinllling of snow, while the tempera-
ture alternates between few degrees
of frost and crisp spring weather.

MAJOR MARCHAND AT CAIRO
No One Permitted to Interview the
French Officer.

No One Permitted to Interview the
French Oficer.
Cairo Nov. 4.-Major Marchand, the
commander of the French expedition at
Fashoda, arrived here at o'clock last
evening. He was met at the railroad
station by the French officials and resi-
dents. The explorer looked thin and
worried. Directly the major appeared
at the door of the train the spectators
rushed forward, waving hats, sticks
and handkerchiefs and crying "Vive
Marchand." The latter, who was much
pleased and touched at the reception
accorded him, drove off to the French
diplomatic agency amid more cheering.
The French officer, who Is short, ac-
tive and bronzed, was dressed in
civilian clothes.
Only two Senegalese soldiers ac-
companied Major Marchand, whose fu-
| ture movements depend upon the in
structions which Captain Baratier
brings him.
At the French agency 1t was formally
| announced that no one would be per-
mitted to interview the French officer

SENIOR RIOS ARGUMENT
Against Yielding to the Demand
For the Philippines,
COLONIAL REVENUES PAWNED

Meantime the American Peace Com
mIssioners Must Consider the Duty
They owe Agulnaldo and His Insur-
gent Followers.
Paris, Nov. 4.-Last Monday the Uni
ted States and Spanish peace commits
sioners left the definite limitations OF
the protocol and entered the wide field
of diplomacy where an open question
is to be decided. Both commissions
realize that the area is ample enough
for some maneuvering, though on the
American side the tendency to evo-
luton is much more compact than
those Of the SUaniards. Both would
undoubtedly be gratihed to reach
mutual conclusion without compulston.
AT Mondays joint session the Amer
lean commissioners laid down a prop
osition in two parts. First, that the
United States should take over the
Philippines entire; second, that in so
doing they should reimburse to Spain
the sum of her permanent and pacific
expenditures in the Philippines The
logic of the situation compelled the
Americans to make the first move.
Having heard the American propo-
sition, this the Spaniards might have
Immediately declined 1t, as they cer-
tainly will do at today's session.
Whether they will accompany the re-
fusal with counter proposition has
not been definately ascertained, though
that course seems improbable. The re-
suit will be that the commissions will
retire from confronting positions until
one or the other shall have reformed it's
lines for the next meeting, which will
probably occur next week. If the
Spanish commissioners entertain a
hope that after the elections in the
United States the American commits
sioners will relax their demands as to
the Philippines. they have not uttered
it here for the public ear, nor has any
thing been said or done by any mem
Der Of the United States commission
to warrant such a hope.
The American commissioners came tC
Paris with no greed for Philippine ter
ritory. To an unofficial bystander the
The evening herald. [volume] (Shenandoah, Pa.) 1891-1966, 1898-11-04


question with them has seemed to be
rather to find the right path and to
walk in 1t than by bold use Of power
to wrench the utmost advantage from
a distressed opponent.
The fact is, the commissioners have
felt that the conditions precedent
render the letting go of the Philip
pines as difficult as their retention.
There is, for instance, the question of
the future of Aguinaldo, his chiefs and
followers. The Philippine leader and
his immediate associates in the insur-
rection accepted exile and refused over
half a million dollars at the hands of
Spain as an inducement to cease their
rebellion. They went to China, but
they were brought back to the Phil
ippines on board a United States war
ship Aguinaldo received from Admiral
Dewey several thousand stands of
arms and was put ashore as an ally of
the United States in the war against
Spain.
The insurgent leader and his chiefs
have forfeited their lives. Should the
United States return the Philippines to
Spain Aguinaldo and his fighting fol-
lowers must be surrendered to death
and the American commissioners feel
that the transplanting of them would
be as severe toward them as it would
be impracticable from the point of view
of the United States. Territory to
shelter them is felt to be necessary in
the Philippines.
Your correspondent ascertains from
Spanish sources, beyond question au-
thentic, that before the Philippine
question is settled the Spanish commits
sioners will declare that they are not
here solely to save or to gain all the
money possible from the United States.
Senior Montero Rios, president of the
Spanish commission, and his colleagues
waving for argument any classifica-
tion of the Spanish or colonial debts
will point out that Spain has borrowed
on the collateral of her colonial reve-
nue.. They will concede that the ma
tional guarantee may have been added
but that for all purposes of this con-
tenton the fact is irrevelant.
1t will then be frankly urged by her
commissioners that Spain has pawned
the revenues of the Philippines and of
Cuba that she did so in good faith
to her creditors, and this being true,
that she has no moral right to give
away or rehypothecate territory al
ready pledged.
Senior Rios will urge that should
Spain take that course her creditors
might charge her with defrauding
them to save the Canaries, Carolines
and Balearlc Islands, and to avoid pos
sible damage to the peninsula. The
Spanish commissioners will protest
that such transaction would be In
| tolerable to Spain, as it would branC
her as a robber and poltroon. They will
| declare to the Americans that rathe
than be so pilloried by their creditor
they will, If they must, be deprived o
their remaining colonies and suffer de
| vastation of their mainland.
If the United States feels it higl
duty to retain the Philippines Spain
envoys will declare that she has al
| equally sacred duty In holding them t.

sibly unable to make good the in

When a man breaks down with that

test of Dr. PerCe's Golden Medical Dis

even the lungs. That spot is the stomach.
