If war comes the increased revsnue
needed to carry it on will be raised by
customs duties on tea, coffee, excise
taxes on beer and tobacco, and stamp
taxes on bank paper. The people who have
been led to look favorably on war because
the rich are opposed to it, will observe
that this programme saddles most of the
cost on the masses. 1t is always the case
that the people hardest hit by war are not
the millionaires and the spectators and
the bankers, but the people of small
means and the wage earners. Yet the
latter are almost always the ones who are
most furious for a conflict. Why it should
be SO it is difficult to say, but such APP
pears to be the fact.

The adoption of the resolution reported
in the two houses of Congress yesterday
will prevent the President from reopen
ing negotiations with Spain for it directs
him to proceed to armed intervention
Immediately. Probably all has been
accomplished by negotiations that can be,
and yet it would seem to be unwise to
shut the door absolutely against the pos
sibility of peaceful settlement.
The Portland daily press., 1898-04-14

The sailing of the flying squadron under
sealed orders is not without significance.
though the assumption on the part OF
some people that it has sailed with the
purpose of preventing the concentration
of the Spanish feet is nonsense. The
probability is that it has gone to some
West Indian neutral port in order that it
may be in a better position in case war
does break out. Hence the inference
may be drawn from it that the authori-
ties believe war close at hand.

SAFE DEPOSIT VAULTS.

Having consolidated with the Portland
Safe Deposit Company. the Portland
Trust Company now offers it's patrons

The utmost privacy is afforded by sep
arate entrances from the street, while
the arrangement OF offices of the consoli-
dated company is such that all financial

The two Spanish cruisers which some
time ago left Havana and went to Porto
Rico, have now, it is reported, sailed for
the Cape de Verde islands, where the
Spanish torpedo feet and several larger
warships, already are The signs are that
the ships already at this point will remain
there until they are reinforced by the
battlesbips and cruisers that are preparing
to depart from Spanish home ports when
they will proceed in mass to West
Indian waters to give our navy battle

task would have Leen much simpler if we

We refer TO the common use OF soda
to relieve heartburn or sour stomach,

practice almost daily, and one which

soda only gives temporary relief and in

Dr.. Harlandson recommends as the
safest and surest cure for sour stomach
acid dyspepsia) an excellent prepars-
tion sold by druggists under the name
Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. These
tabl 10 are large 20 grain lozenges,
very pleasant TO taste and contain the
natural acids, peptones and digestive
e ements essential to good digestion,
and When taken after meals they di-
gest the food perfectly and promptly

D.. Wucrth states that he invariably
uses Stuert's Dyspepsia Tablets in all
cases of stomach arrangements and
finds them certain cure not only for
sour stomach but by promptly digest
ing the food they create a healty appe-
tite, increase flesh and strengthen the
