There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For great many years doctors pro- nounced it local disease, and pre- scribed local remedies, and by con stantly failing to cure with local treat nnent, pronounced it incurable. Scieace has proven catarrh to be a constitution al disease, and therefore requires con stitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,, Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu- tional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the sys- tenn. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address.

IT is learned that out of six hundred re- plies received from officers of the army. in answer to the inquiries of the War Depart ment as to the expediency of retaining the ,eanteens in post-exchanges, only six are adverse to the present system No doubt men best qualified to judge what is best for the soldier, in favor of the canteen, will only excite our ultra-temperance brethren { to greater efforts to suppress it. We may army may have weight with Congress. The soldiers vote does not count for much, but . there is an Increasing number of voters whose votes do count. who think and care about the soldier, and would resent the needless sacrifice of his interests to the pre- judices of the inconsiderate.-lE. s. Martin. in Harper's Weekly,
 Those of us who have lived for many years upon the frontier in c.ose prox- imity to army posts have not failed to note the improvement in the canteen over the 'hog-ranch." One is under the direct control of the officers, while the other is usually in charge of bad characters, and all sorts of out rages are committed. And men will drink-there is no getting around that fact, much as it is to be deplored.

C. c. BABB, of the ?. s. Geological Survey, is still engaged in sinking for bed rock at the box canyon below San
 Carlos. The deepest hole so far is but seventy feet, and the rock is the hard est lime-alI that could be desired for a foundation for a solid rock dam.
 When it is considered that the capacity sOfa reservoir at that point would be
 nearly three times that at the Florence
 Buttes, it will be readily understood
 that San Carlos will be the point selected by the Government engineers. It would mean that three hundred thousand acres in the Casa Grande val ley would be brought~under cultiva- tion instead of one hundred thousand.

Collector chsroweth Rsinstated.

MORALES, July 27.-News that H. K. Chenoweth was reinstated yesterday as collector of customs caused a great sensation in this town and on both sides of tlse line there was great re- joicing. The celebration last spring over the news that the Santa Cruz bill had passed was not a circumstance to the general rejoicing. Mass meetings were held and the entire popu,ace turned sout. Giant powder was ex- ploded, bells and whistles sounded, and everybody rejoiced as Mir. Cheno- weth has ever been popular with all classes here and all knew the injustice that had been done him.

 THERE is sermon ia the following from Harper's Weekly, and the text is that even the best minds have their lapses:
 Ths admission made by Captain Watkins of the Paris that he is responsible for the accident to that ship through what we must one for which no excuse is possible-must add to the terrors of ocean travel. Captain Watkins is man whose career has been entirely honorable and unusually successful. If such man as he. through moment of iladyertence. or in one of those sudden and temporary paralyses which mysteriously affect the minds of most men, has made such 8 slip. it is clear that the system which leaves to one mind the fate of ships and lives is bad one. If Captain Watkins calculation had been verified bs another. or If another, to take Mir. HysIop's proposition, had made the calculation and Captain Watkins had verified 1t, the accident to the Paris would not have happened. The fact that Captain Watkins career is oyer will of course mako other captains more yieilant. but de- pendence upon one mind in this sort of thing Is absolutely unsafe. No man can tell when his mental energies, usually keen though they may be, are going to stop working for a moment; and that moment may be tI,e most important inthat minds I.story.

CABLE COMPANIES CLAIMS.
Growing Out of Suspension of Their
Business BY Our Forces.

Washington. Jan. 4.-Another dis
agreeable consequence of the late war
has been the presentation to the Govern
ment of claims of cable companies for
damages sustained through the suspen-
sion Of their business by the United
States military and naval forces. what
the aggregate amount of these claims
will be cannot be foretold. The COM
nanies in each case base their claims
upon the number of days of Interrupt
tion to business estimating the loss
each day by the records of business
transacted in corresponding periods III
former years. The State Department is
puzzled in dealing with these claims.
There is no exact precedent for them,
and il is realized that we must make
some new international law to meet the
case. The companies believe they have
a precedent for their demands in the at
titude assumed by the United States in
the claim of the Central and South
American Telegraph Company, whose
cables were cut off the coast of Chile
by the Congressional party, which sue
ceeded in overthrowing the Balmaceda
party in Chile. The Chilean claims COM
mission allowed the cable company about
one-fcurth of its claim.
The principal argument against the al
lowance Of the claims in the peidins
cases is based upon denial that they
are parallel with the South American
case. 1t is also asserted that at Manila
for instance, the cable was being used
as a weapon by the Spanish garrison,
and that the United States was justified
in destroying this weapon.

TREACHERY AT PANAY DENIED
Aguinaldo's Friendship for Americans
Makes Him Unpopular.

Madrid, Jan. 4.-The statement that
the Spaniards evacuated Iloilo i'll order
to render the situation more difficult for
the Americans is positively denied here.
1t is added here that the Spanish Gov
ernment, Immediately after the signing
OF the treaty of peace. ordered the Phil
ippines to be evacuated az quickly as
possible, in order to avoid further blood
shed and conform with the expressed
wish of the Americans, who were very
exacting, especially in the case of Cuba. .
An interview with an eX-prefect of a
province of the Philippines was pub
lished here in the course of which he is
quoted as saying:
president Mckinley has shown com
plete ignorance of the situation in the
Philippines. When the Americans occu-
pied Manila there were only four insur-
gent provinces. The Americans en-
couraged the rebellion and now they are
themselves the victims of the support
which they gave the insurgents, who
have become masters of the entire arch
pelago, except Mindanao, where the
natives, who are Mussulmans, have re-
fused to recognize American rule, al
though they have not revolted.
"Aguinaldo's unpopularity is due to his
friendship for the Americans. His treat
ment of Spanish prisoners has been hor-
rible. Monks haye been marched through
the streets, le4 by cords attached to
rings through their noses. and others
have been employed literally as beasts
of burden. A thousand have died of Ill
treatment"

It's action in reducing expenses will
be heartily endorsed by the people of
North Carolina.
'"The books will be unlocked. SO
spoke a prominent Senator last night
after the joint caucus of the Democratic
Senators and Representatives in Com
mons Hall.
The Democratic Senators had eau
cussed in the afternoon, and it had been
the sense of the body that no time
should be lost in going into a thorough
Investigation of the Penitentiary and
perhaps of other institutions. In the
joint caucus at night it vas made clear
that the investigation would be imme-
diate, sweeping and thorough. The in
vestigation will begin at the top and go
to the hottom-to the bottom of the de-
partments and of zach department.
The Democratic administration of pub
lie affairs. when it begins, Mdl begin with
a clean bill of naaIth. The fusion admin
istration will have it's workings sounded,
and any rottenness that may exist or has
existed will be exposed. '"rhe people
will take a look at the books
The ball will be set a-rolling in the
Senate to-day when Senator j. A.
Brown, of the 10th district, will intro
duce a resolution calling for the appoint.
ment of a joint committee to investigates.
The committee will be instructed to in
vestigate the management of all pubic
institutions and of all the departments
of State. There will be no discrimiIa-
ton. The penitentiary, the rotten man
agement of which has been Il stencil in
the nostrils for this many a day, will
not receive the exclusive attention of
the committee The opportunity will BE-
improved to look into the affl IS of all
the other institutions and, il any reno
yation is needed, to renoyate.
There was no difference Of opinion as
to this Senators and Representatives
are. apparently. unanimously and eager
~ for it. Said one last night: "Our in
structions from the people We're impera-
tive on this point. We were sent here
to investigate the conduct Of public
affairs during the past two yeans as a
part of our work. We have no desire
and no intention to shirk it. My under
standing of the matter is that the in
yestigation is to be thorough and impair
tial. |, for one, feel that to do less
would be to violate the trust imposed
in me by my constituents Others
spoke much to the same purpose.
Naturally. the personnel of the com
nittee was not discussed at the joint
caucus last night. That will be taken
up and determined after the joint reso-
luton has been put through the House
and Senate, and the matter thus gotten
into formal shape. Much interest viii
attach to the make up of this com
mittee. as it will be one of the most
important of the legislative session, and
undoubtedly some of the ablest members
of both Houses will be placed on it.
