During the Civil War, as we'll as in
our late war with Spain, diarrhoea
was one of the most troublesome dis

In many instances it became chronic,
and the old soldiers still suffer from it.

Unexpected Developments In tie Albert
Len Rate Hearing.
ST.. PAUL, June 2S.-The state rail.
road and warehouse commission heard
q part of the evidence in the complaint
of Ransom Brothers company against
the Milwaukee and the Omaha roads.
A solar plexus blow was dealt the Mil
waukee road by the introduction of q
certain letter from the company, which
broke up the hearing. and an adjourn
ment was taken until July 10 to give
the roads q chance to recover their Sec
0nd wind.
The Ransom Brothers company is a
wholesale grocery jobbing house at AL
bert Lea. Some time agothey complained
to the commission that the Milwaukee
and the Omaha roads Disseminated
against them in favor of St. Paul. Min
neapolis, Mankato and Red Wing. The
railroads replied to this complaint, say
ing that the rates now in force were as
low as they could possibly grant. They
refused to make the concession wanted
by the Ransom Brothers company. and
the commission set Monday as the time
for hearing arguments.
The letter introduced, with a tariff
sheet attached. was evidence of secret
rate cutting, which is unlawful, and
also of neglect to file a schedule with
the state railroad and warehouse com.

Wild Genes At the Kentucky Democratic
Convention.
LtIsvILLE. KY, June '27.-Trouble
be9h with the fall of the gavel at the
mining session Of the Democratic state
c9ventlon, the beginning of the second
yek of its labors. In respect to up.
yarious disorder, it outdid itself,
hough it already had a reasonably
good record for lack Of accord. When
the session began a demand was made
for the removal Of the police, who had
been present since the disturbance
caused Friday by outsiders. The chair
ruled it out of order and refused to
recognize an appeal. For hours the
crowd yelled and sang in a very effec-
tual effort to prevent a continuation of
the balloting for governor. The dem
onstration on the whole was good
humored, but determined. Only once
or twice was i'll humor displayed, and
but n of these, the occasion being the
election of a ~disorderly delegate, came
near resulting seriously.
After wearing themselves out the
crowd settled down to . wait. Both
sides were resting on their oars ct 8
o'clock With no sign Of . break.

AN OPINION BY KING.
Filipinos More Capable Of Self Govern.
ment Than We


MILWAUKEE. June 2..-Brigadier
General Charles King, who returned
from the Philippines a short time age.
was asked by the Milwaukee Journal
for his views Of the situation in the
Philippines. General Kings reply was
received in a letter, in which he states
that the capabilities Of the Filipinos for
self-government cannot be doubted. and
if given q fair start. they could look out
for themselves infinitely better than our
people imagine. General Kings letter
reads as follows:
Thinking over your telegram and
request of June I | find myself serl-
ously embarrassed AS an officer of the
army there are many reasons why l
should not give my views of situation
in the Philippines: how long fighting is
likely 10 continue, and thoughts as to
Americas part in the future Of the
islands
The c~apability of the Filipinos for
self government cannot be doubted.
Such men as Arellano, Aguinaldo and
many others whom l might name. are
highly educated: nine-tenths Of the peo-
pie read and write: all are skilled ar
tisans in one way or another: they are
industrious, frugal, temperate and.
given a fair start could look out for
themselves infinitely better than our
people imagine. In my opinion they
rank FAR higher than the Cubans or the
uneducata negroes. TO whom we have
given the light Of suffrage"
