Adown the path in merry race,
With never 'cop' to mind 'em,

And I know they often wish today
That the wind still blew behind 'em.

distressing stomach trouble. The gases
generated by the indigestion pressed on the
heart, and caused an ir1egularity of it's ac-

and heart, and was subject to frequent and
severe choking spells which were most
severe at night. Doctors were tried in

BUTLER EXPAOOES A BOMB.

Charges That Republicans Sold Out tt
Monopoli1ss and Money Changers.
In discussing the war revenue bill
in the United States on Thursday Mr
Butler, the North Carolina Populiat
Senator, exploded Yeritable bomb.
Mr.. Butler made characteristic at
tack upon the Rspu oIican party, in
the coure OF which ne srraignsi what
ne said was the determination Of the
majority Of the senats TO incorporate
IN sne bill PROVISION for the issue Of
bonds. He made serious reflections
upon the senate itealf, charging that
It's majority had been ''unduly in,
huencsd" upon the question OF bonds.
The statement brought Mr.. Gal
inger to his feet, who demanded thst
Ar. Butler make his charges mora
specific.
Ia the course Of a colloquy between
the two senator's, Mr.. Butler declared
that immense sums had been contrib.
uted to the Repu 0Iican presidential
campaign fund by the trusts and
monopolsts and bondholders and
money changers, and tnat SO per
cent. Of the money had been raised
and paid over to the Republican party
under contract that certain legisla
lion promoting the interests of trusts
and monopolies should be enacted.
Mr.. Galllnger insisted that the
charges should be made specific; that
Mr.. Bduer mad no right, under the
rules, to arraign him or MS party, IN
less he had definite and specific
charges to present, and if the rules of
the senate gave him the right they
ough! to be changed.
Mr. BatIer said that, while be be
lieVed the sta!emsnt to be true, he
had not made it upon his own respon.
slolll.y, with personal knowledge OF
us truth.
Il have learned" said he, ''in the
course OF my experience as chairman
OF the Porulist party committee, that
there are InLerelts which will contrib
uLe to the support OF any party in re-
turn for an agreement that that party
will support legislation favorable to
those interests.
Senators on both Sides OF the cham.
ber were brought into the debate, and
good deal Of ill-feeling was mani
tested.

PART OF A SCHEME.
TIE Object ufshe Dash Into Santiago EI.
p'anCd

There is absolutely no doubt in the
minds OF the naval officials in Wash
ingtoa that the sending Of the collier
Merimac into the harbor of Santiago
was all prearraoged move on the
part of Admiral Sampson. The use
of a collier, the unusual hour Ct the
morning, the necessity of blockading
the channel so sto relieve some of the
ships Of the squadron from remaining
stationed of Santiago, the i'm portance
of discovering whether the mines
were efective-all these reasons make
it certain that the Merrimsc was de-
liberate]y guided 70 her destruction. It
was not a Spanish victory. It was 8
cleyerly arranged scheme on the part
of American admiral and 1t wss sue
cessful. lie eight men in Spanish
prison are the real heroes CT the war.

I have no further control over it
