Do Not Give Up in De-
spair-There is Hope!

For ages it has been thought
that Cancer is incurable, and
those so unfortunate as to have
this dreadful affection have con-
sidered themselves beyond hope of
recovery. The doctors are alb
solutely unable to afford any re-
lief, and the poor sufferer might
we'll consider himself on the way
to an early grave.
It is now easy to see why the
doctors have failed to cure Cancer.
Their theories have been all wrong,
and hence their treatment mis-
directed. They have made the
mistake of thinking that by cut
ting out the sore or ulcer, known
as Cancer, the disease would be
gotten rid of, and the patient re-
stored to health. But the cruel
knife accomplishes nothing, for
the Cancer promptly returns, andis
always more virulent than before
It has been demonstrated, beyond
doubt, that Cancer is a blood disease,
and can not be cured by the surgeons
knife because the blood can not be cul
aaCdy.
Several years ago my wife had an
ulcer on her tongue, which, though al
noying, was not regarded seriously al
first. 1t refused TIC heal and began to
grow, giving her much pain. The doc.

immense indemnity besides. Jas

money indemnity. The United
States proposes to take over a
lot Of islands that are valueless
to Spain, and that she is in no
position to reconquer from the
natives, and we propose to pay
her for every internal improves
ment that we receive. If Spain
does not consider these terms
just terms, as conquerors' terms
go nowadays, then Spain should
be left to obtain better ones by
the sword.

The Way Out of the Philippines


Boston Transcript.
Mr.. Woodward Emery, of
Cambridge, suggests a solution of
the Philippine problem. The
plan proposed is a joint protecto-
rate, not to include any of the de-
cadent powers, but to be COM
posed of representatives of this
country, England, Russia, Ger
many and Holland, the latter as
being the least powerful and most
pacific country, to furnish tie
president of the board, which
would be invested with power to
formulate a codes or codes for the
government of the islands, to be
modified or changed as the people
advanced in civilization and de-
veloped capacity for self-goverrs
ment. The plan further contem-
plates making Manila a free port,
"opening the door to unobstructed
assistance of all the philanthro-
pists and humanitarians who may
choose to make an effort in be-
half of the natives. AS long ago

those islands, though on a some
what more restricted plan than
the one here proposed. II we de-
sire to show our hum anity for
these people without involving
ourselves in a strange policy and

way of doing it, or trying to dc
it, with the least risk. If difficul>

remember that the ambitious and

launch US on a still wider sea Of

A NEW REPUBLIC.

The busy work of map-making
goes On apace. On the first day
of the present month the repub-
lies of Nicaragua, Salvador and
Honduras disappeared, and a new
Central American republic arose
in the place-the United States
of Central America. Guatemala
and Costa Rica are expected to
join the new republic later on,
provision having been made for
their admission whenever they see
fit to enter the new republic.
Guatemala adjoins Mexico and
British Honduras, and Cos
ia Rica adjoins Colombia and
the isthmus of Pama. The one
lies north, and the other
south, of the new republic. II
neither joins the union, the new
republic will have a compact ter
ritory stretching from sea to sea.
The form of government is
patterned Cafter that of this
country, and it will be put in full
operation by the inauguration Of
a new president on the 18th day
of next March. All parts Of the
new republic are essentially
alike, having a common language,
common traditions and common
customs. If Costa RIGA and Qua
temala elect to enter the union,
the population will exceed that
of this country at the time of the
revolution. and in extent of ter
ritory it will hold a good place
among the republics south of US,
The route of the proposed Mic.
araguan canal lies in the new re-
public, and just what the repub>
lie of Nicaragua desired:to accom-
plish by granting a new conces-
sion in the closing days of its
existence is not fully known. The
constitution Of the new republic
provides that the obligations of
the separate states entered into
before November 1 shall be ups
held, so that the Eyre Cragin
contract will perhaps hold good.
But it is certain that Messrs.
Eyre, Cragin & Co. will have to
build the canal themselves, if
they attempt to get in the Way
Of the people Of the United
States, who will doubtless prefer
to deal with the United States of
Central America directly before
they put any money in an inter-
oceanic canal.

THE PARIS NEGOTIATIONS.

Demagogues of the Foraker
sort are rushing into print to say
that they will never consent to
the payment of a cent to Spain.
Such men, of course, overlook
everything except the effect of
their %utterances On the popular
mind. They particularly over
look the significant taking of Ais
saee-Lorraie by Germany. In
that case France was defeated, her
capital was occupied, and her peo-
pie Inundated beyond expression;
and yet Germany assumed the in~
debtedness that sprang from ac-
tual improvements in Alsace-Lor-
raine. The conquerors assumed
the debts incurred in the building
of canals in the annexed territory,
and when a canal was partly in
Alsace-Lorraine and partly withe
out iG Germany took over a
proportionate part of the debt.
This was not Forakerism or
demagogry of any sort. It was
the doctrine Of s'pacifc expendi-
lures" that the American COM
missioners have adopted, it is
said, in dealing with the Philip
pine problem. The effort to build
a golden bridge across which the
Spaniards can retreat is finding
supporters in this country
wherever fair-minded men are
heard. I'VE are," says the Nash
vile American, "ln honor bound
to assume the debt of the islands
incurred for legitimate improve
ments. Because we are con-
querors it does not follow that we
shall be plunderers, faithless to
the obligations of nations"
We are now nearing the last
and most critical stage of the
war. Thus far there has been no
development that indicates a sets

If Spain Should Leave Paris

Nothing dreadful would happen
if Spain should refuse to recog-
nize the position she is in. She
did this very thing when the re-
publics of South America achieved
their independence. She carried
on a war many years ON paper,
but there vas no fighting of any
other nature.
So it will be if Spain should
leave Paris. Mr.. George Dewey
would proceed to round up the
Philippines, the administration of
Porto Rico would be steadily car
ried on, and the complete con-
quest of Cuba, either be sterva-
ton or actual occupation, would
be accomplished, probably witha
out fighting. The Spanish army
in Cuba is going home day by
day. It is in no condition to
fight a victorious and well-trained
army, 1t would not attempt, it.
On the other hand it is scarcely
reasonable that the United States
would assume the aggressive, SO
far as the peninsula itself, and
the Canaries, and the Balearic
isles are concerned, provided Spain
made no trouble in Cuba Or the
Philippines. If she did-and
such action is scarcely possible on
her part-then there would be
war enough; but SPAN would not
do anything that would arouse
American aggression.
In other words, if Spain should
leave Paris, the two countries
would be technically at war, but
really at peace, and the United
states would be in possession OF
the islands in dispute, and no bo-
nus nor indemnity would be paid.
True, some effort on the part
of marine insurance companies
might be made to raise premiums,
and goods might for a while be
carried in neutral bottoms; but as
the navigation acts and Dingley
tariff have driven the flag from
the seas anyway, no material loss
in that respect would accrue to
this country. Spain would soon
tire of the situation, and peace
would follow after the dynasty
had been preserved, and politicaI
troubles overcome in Spain.
But nothing of the kind will oc-
cur. Spain is without an efficient
navy. Her sea days r ended, il
they eyer were begun. She will
hand over the Philippines, taking
whatever price she ear secure.
She is now dickering for a bonus.
