AUDUBON, Iowa, July 20, 1899.
Gentlemen: On March 7, 80, bought
of S. F. Border, your agent 500 lbs Rex
Stock Food and began feeding it to my g
head of steers. I had fed other Continental
Food, but must say that l never had cattle
do better in all feeding than did these with
Rex Food and think it made me from 10 to
IS cents extra on the finish of my cattle.
That alone paid me for feeding it.
I would advise any one feeding cattle,
or any one who intends to feed food to feed
the Rex Stock Food.
Yours very respectfully,
NELs OLSON
Remark: Mr.. Olson was SO much
pleased with the Rex Food that he advised
his brother, Martin Olson of Sioux City, to
use it. AS result, Mr.. Martin Olson order
ed 1000 lbs OF Rex Food shipped to his
feeding station and he also states now since
using it that he never fed anything in his life
that pleased him so we'll.

KIRoN, Iowa, July IS, 1899.

KlRoN, Iowa, July S, 1899.
Dear Sir: In compliance with your re-
quest can cheerfully say after having fed to
my cattle nearly all of the 900 lbs. of Rex
Food, which l purchased from you on March
~, and it is all the company claims for it.
l can see that they digest their foodvery
much better and are eating more corn and
look more glossy than any ever fed before.
Their general appearance shows splendid
gain and fine finish up to the present date.
1t is an excellent Food Ration and
shall advise feeders to use it. | shall continue
the use of Rex Food and need 100 lbs. more
to finish these cattle.
(Signed.) FRED GRoNAU.
Remark: Since giving this statement
Mr.. Gronau has purchased 200 lbs. more
Rex Food and proves the sincerity of the
above statement by SO doing. Mr. Gronau
is one of the representative and most reliable
men of his community and those who know
him will not want better evidence than MIR.

STANwooD, Iowa, March IS, 1890.

Gentlemen: On December 20, 'o8, |
bought from your agent at Stanwood Mr.
John Grant, some of your Rex Stock Food
At the time that | got it my cattle were not
eating as they should, but after the use of
Rex Stock Food for short time, | found
my cattle doing much better than ever before
The increase in the amount of feed and the
excellent manner in which they digest their
feed told me that the Rex Food was paying
me to use it. l am getting the cost of all
the Food in the gain in my hogs that are
following my cattle.
| am glad to recommend the Rex Food
to any one who feeds cattle.
Yours truly,
B. E. burgess.
Remark: Before Mr.. Burgess got Rex
Food his cattle were losing him money, but
the Rex Food enabled him to put his figures
on the right side of the profit and loss ac-
count

WICHITA, Iowa, July 10, 1899.
Dear Sirs: In reply to your inquiry con-
corning my opinion of and experience with
Rex Food will say that 1 bought 80 head Of
yearling (branded) steers in Omaha, Sept.
10, 1898, later IS head more Qost one) at
home. Nov. 1 | bought 20 head two year
old steers and put the 81 head on feed oil
snapped corn in two "a #. self feeders to
which they have had access since. March
20, bought 900 lbs, Rex Food of S. F.
Border, Agent, and began feeding my cattle
the Food as directed. My cattle began to
show thrift at once. They shed their hair
early They have a regular appetite, they
eat more corn and digest it better, their
bowels are always regular, never scour, they
have fed better than any cattle | ever fed
with Oil Meal. Since put on grass May TO-
my cattle, 90 head, are putting on lbs. per
day average which is good for yearings and
and two year old branded cattle. | am offer
ed from IS to IS cts. per cwt. above market
price for them.
Mr.. c. w. Parry, photographer of Guth-
talking of copy righting the pictures Think
tneSe pictures Will pear me out Wnen say
my cattle are fine.
l can highly recommend Rex Food to
those who wish to make their cattle good.
| never expect to feed again without it.
Yours truly
w. A. KENYON.
Remark: The above statement of facts
explains itself. The extra finish alone has
made Mr.. Kenyon good profit his in
vestment, saying nothing of the other valu-
able benefits which he explains as having de-
rived from the use of Rex Food. Experience
gives facts which cannot be questioned

KIRoN, July II, 1899.

KIRoN, July ~, 1899.
Dear Sir: 1 can say that am favorably
impressed with the merits of Rex Food, and
am fully convinced that it is profitable food
ration to feed in connection with our daily
grain ration, both to cattle and hogs.
On March IS, began to feed the l 900
lbs. which bought from you to feed my IS
steers. At this time l had them nearly on
full feed. They all went onto feed in fine
shape, none securing and not one went off
his feed. In very short time could see
that they digested their corn better than they
had previously done. They made gain of
325 lbs. in 1903 days of feeding. This, with
the unfavorable circumstances which existed
and 12-mle drive, 1 consider is very good
for 800 lb. cattle fed in dry lots. am now
feeding the Food to my fattening hogs and
spring pigs with good results. | shall con-
tinue the use of Rex Food in all my feeding
and feel that can recommend it as prof.
table food for both cattle and hogs, that will
save feeder time and money.
Very respectfully,
CHARLES ERNE.
Remark: Mr.. Erne proves his sincerity
by his decision never to feed again without
Rex Food. His cattle feeding will net him
much more hereafter than before he learned
the value of feeding ration of Rex Food.

"Hyphenated Americans. "

Chicago, June 21.-A special to the
reimes-Herald from Terre Haute, Ind,
says: Captain Coghlan of the Raleigh,
who stopped here on his way to Puget
sound to visit friends of Mrs Coghlan
and his in this city, where the then young
naval officer first met his wife, who was
a Miss Barbour, 80 years ago, talked in
terestingly with these friends of the oc-
currences which has brought him into
prominence, except as to the Union
League club speech, with it's recitation of
'hoch der kaiser" That affair, he said,
is closed incident. He said, though.
that of trunkful of letters received
from all parts of the United States, only

written by very ignorant persons. The
captain did speak with feeling against
what he called "hyphenated Americans"
Said he:

is an American c1tzen, pure and simple.
! have no patience with this hyphenated
citizenship. There is nothing that Eu-
rope would rather see today than the ex-
istence of their fractional lines in our
citizenship. If these foreig colonists get
a foothold in the United States, our power
will be on the wane'
When asked what he thought Admiral
pe"ey PiosIaHiihe Would be on his re-
turn to this country, he replied:
Il believe he will go at once to his
nome IN Vermont. He will not make any

10 Subdue and Hold the
Philippine Islands.
COMMISSION A FAILURE
Western Volunteers Make the Finest
Soldiers in the WOrld--The Fill
pinos Think They Have the Ameri-
can Forces Already Licked.

San Francisco, June 21.-Dr. Charles A.
McQueslin, who was on the staff of Gen.
eral Otis and who was health officer at
Manila, has returned home, invalided by
the climate. Captain McQueslin made a
close study of the conditions of the Phil
ippine situation. He is of the opinion that
it will take from 100000 to $50, 900 soldiers
to properly subdue and hold the islands.
He also says that the peace commission
was an absolute failure and that it's work
from the start was without effect. He
strongly supports the military govern
ment of the islands, except that he thinks
more men will be necessary than has been
estimated.
"Dr. Schurmann knows that the COM
mission is a failure and is coming home
In july added Captain McQueslin. "Un-
less troops, thousands of them, are sent
to the aid of the men there. they will be
driven back into Manila in the course Of
the next few months, during the rainy
season. Our men simply cannot stand
the climate. Fifty per cent of them will
be incapacitated by sickness. Manila
will be in state of siege again. One Of
the great dangers that our men have to
face is the climate. The new 'comers will
be at disadvantage, because the volun-
teers who are returning home are Injured
to the climate. AS matter of belief, the
Filipinos think they have the Americans
licked already. One solution of the situ-
alton might be to enlist colored troops
from the gulf states and this might settle
some of the rape questions of that Sec
tion. These men would be better able to
stand the climatic conditions around
Manila, and it has been proven that they
are good fighters"
II want to say word for the western
volunteers. They make the finest SOL
diers in the world and their fighting quail
tiles are wonderful. But the volunteers
all want to return home, and l hardly
think that the plan to enlist three skele-
ton regiments from the volunteers now
in the Philippines will be a success The
men enlisted to fight for their country
and they are not the kind of men who
want to stay and fight an insurrection
for money or the fun Of fighting"

Gomez Gains Friends.

Havana, June T.-General Quentin
Bandera, who crossed the western trocha
on August l. 1896, three months ahead of
from Santiago, saying that the Cuban as
sembly will meet on June 30. He recalls
the valiant work Of Gomez in the war of
1868, and the sentiments then expressed
by him at Sportuno, when Gomez said:
The negro, mulatto and white are
members of the same race. and together
we wish to eXpel the foreign tyrant and
gain our independence
Your last manifesto" says General
Bandera, shows that you are still ami
mated by the same desire to unite all
elements, and l take the liberty in the
name Of all. of asking you to attend the
coming meeting of the assembly and to
give your best efforts and the benefit of
your enormous influence to the promotion
of the work proposed. In addition to the
army officers, we shall invite representa-
tive Cubans, especially Spaniards, resid-
ing here. We wish so to employ our ef-
forts as to teach our companions the me-
cesslty of patience, unity and order,
which, in comparatively short time,
would enable us to form the Cuban re-
public"
General Gomez replied:
Il am deeply grateful for the position
given me in your good will and that of
your companions, and also for the COM
pllment you pay me in asking my assist
ance in consolidating the work just now
beginning after many sacrifices and long
deferred hopes. You may depend upon
my help and upon my being disposed to
work with the same energy in times of
peace as in times of war. Your ideas
are excellent. 1t is only possible to OBJ
tain peace and concord with the concen-
tration of all honorable and Industrious
elements. When this is obtained we shall
easily realize our ideal.'
This correspondence is accepted as
proof that the sincerity of General Gomez
IS winning friends for him even among
his former opponents

Kentucky Democrats.

Louisville, KY. June 21.-The democrat
ic convention which meets this afternoon
promises to be most interesting gath
erirg. Although two of the leading cam
didates for governor, Capt. w. j. Stone
and VIM. Goebel, have agreed to combine
their forces in an attempt to organize the
convention the main issue is yet to be
fought out between these gentlemen and
Gen p. Watt Hardin. If the Stone Goebel
combnation succeeds in organizing the
convention the disposal of the 200 or more
contested seats probably will give them a
winning advantage This will result in
the nomination of Stone for governor
while Mr.. Goebel will control the re-
mainder of the ticket and the state GEN.
tral committee. The Hardin forces. how
ever. are confident of their ability to con-
troll the situation.

1898. Nevertheless, its soil, its ports, its
commerce and its inhabitants are not for
any practical purpose considered Amer
lean. The flag Of the United States floats
over the soil of Porto Rico. but it does not
make American even the children who

from the ports of he United States and

subject to pay custom duties, tonnage

The commerce Of Porto Rico, with the

ing free, as the commerce between Massa-
chusetts and Florida or New York and
Louisiana, is burdened by tariff, heav-
Ter and more obnoxious than that which
was in force when Porto Rico was Span

and its government is vested in Ameri-

the health officers, no protection is given
to any Porto Rican except upon condition
that 1t be carefully expressed that he is

--UniOn Men Protest.

Evansville. Ind. June 21.-The coal
strike assumed a serious aspect here
early this "wednesday morning. The
operators OF the Sunnyside mine had inn
ported 80 negro miners from Kentucky
ana were delivering them at the mine at
1:S0 a. m. when unknown parties, con-
ccaled in the bushes near the mines,
opened fire on the negroes. 1t was very
dark and a stampede followed. Some Of
the non-union men responded with re-
volvers. Many shots We're fired. Six
men We're badly wounded. James Moore,
stockholder in the mine, was shot in
the back and is likely to die. Henry
Smith and John Philips, both colored,
were probably fatally shot. Ed Geiger,
merchant; Charles Smith and John
Horsweather, both colored, were each
badly wounded.
riot call was sent into police head
quarters and responses were given. The
attacking party all dispersed. There is
great excitement at this hour in the
vicinity of the mine. The negroes are
huddled in building and another as
sault is expected.
The Sunnysde mine remains closed to-
day and the imported men are in hiding.
Fred Lacher, national committeeman Of
the United Mine workers and state secre-
tary, denies all knowledge of the shoot
ing. All is quiet today. Governor Mount
will probably be asked to prevent the i'm
of foreign laborers.
