History Of the Spanish-Ameri
can War" BY Henry Wat
teYson.

The above is the title of a suparbly
illustrated, richly bound volume TO-
sued by The Werner Company, Akron,
Ohio. 1t is the only authentic history
of the Spanish-American War that
has so far come to our notice. All the
others have, in the main, been merely
re-ysmped histories of the Cuban
War, with some Illustrations and a
few chapters about the Spanish.
American War. OF course, anything
written by Henry Watterson would
be- readable. He, above all other
men in America. is fitted by training
and experience to write history of
this war, which has brought world
wide renown and glory TO our arms.
Every line OF the book breathes an
enthusiastic spirit of patriotism that
is exhilarating and inspiring.
The work contains over $50 pages,
largo number of full-page half
tones, together with many rich
double-page illustrations in ten col
ors. 1t is sold by subscription, and
will undoubtedly prove a money
maker to every intelligent salesman.

PRIVATE OWNERSHIP.

This question can be solved by
inquiring in to the service rem
dered by the Telephone Compa-
ny. In this age of progress a
telephone system is necessary,
but the best is what the people
are entitled to and if the pres
ent company can't furnish it
then they should give way to
persons who would. With the
proper service and rental, every
business man in Mt. Sterling
would be patron and the SER
vice would become profitable to
the people, to the company and
a pride to the city.

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF
1T.

IL.
This is our opinion: The
people do not want water works
if it costs $4,000 to own a plant
and this conclusion we come to
because the people so expressed
themselves on the 9Th instant at
the polls. 1t is also our opinion
that the people who expressed
themselves on this same subject
one year ago wanted a water
plant for the same reason: they
voted $62, 500 for the erection of
a plant. So the question re-
solves into this; a majority of
the people do not want q plant
at a cost of $4,000, but another
do at a cost of $62,500.
To do as the people wish in this
matter is a mixed question.

Last Tuesdays election devel-
oped one thing: The principles
of Democracy are not dormant.
We did not expect a complete
change Of affairs into the hands
of Democracy for the reason
that there is ever a sentiment
that the party victorious in
contest should be indorsed.
Ir the Spanish-Americon war
the American people, not as
a political party, bnt as one
people, void of all strife, had been
successful in war, and with that
prevailing sentiment the people
voted for the party in power.
With this sentiment, this preci-
dent, the Republicans failed to
hold their own when as matter
of fact only gains could be eX-
pected. Had it not been for the
circumstances relativeto the war
it is evident from Tuesdays cleo
ton there would have been
landslide in favor of Democracy.

DEADLY CANCER CURED.

''I had cancer or ulcer-the most eminent physicians pronounced 1t a cancer. My father, a fine physician, did not relieve my sufferings. I had two brothers, both very fine physicians; neither could relieve me. After untold sufferings with no relief, using eight or nine doctors, some kind friend sent me a bottle of B. B. B. After taking the first bottle felt entirely easy, and it has been the only remedy that has given me permanent relief so many times I have been exhausted and collapsed from weakening I have got great many people to take B.
