New York, July 3O.--The Herald will
print an editorial tomorrow regarding its
Dewey interview in part as follows:
On Friday last Or. Halstead Boyland a
wellknown physician, who. sometimes.
when travelling corresponds with the
Herald in a dilettante. sent the Herald Il
dispatch from Trieste, which was pub
lished in our issue of last Saturday. 1t
gave resume OF a conversation DR.. Boy
land had with Admiral Dewey In his
conversation the admiral spoke with
sailor like candor and expressed opinions
with regard to Germany that have stirred
up commotion. 1t Is regrettable that u
friendly conversation should have found
its way into print. The admiral can not
regret 1t more than the Herald does. When
this has been recorded the fact remains
that Admiral Dewey made the statements
represented by DR.. Boyland.

Will Not Resign From Congress
But VIII Be Where He Can
Worry Mckinley.

Special to the News-Democrat.
Washington, June cit is announced
that Thomas B. Reed, though he has
resigned from the speakership has no
intention OF resigning from congress-
He intends representing the First
Maine district as before but wishes to
be free from official duties to
attend to his law practice. Confidential
friends say he will not accept any i'm
portant committee craftsmanship. He
will have time to adopt role which
many western and southern congress-
men have found lucrative, namely,
legal adviser to large corporations.
Incidentally he will find time to nag
the administration on the floor of the
house, where he can make himself very
troublesome.

of the stomach and how she was
cured:

and two of Man-a-lin and rejoice to say,
God bless DIR. Hartman and Pe-ru-na,
And l earnestly assure you that IL

cine have ever taken in my life. /
prescribe it to every one 1 meet who
is suffering, as the best medicine in

verts who are now rejoicing in the
great good which they have derived
from the same. l can tell you that /
am almost entirely relieved of indiges-
tion, that great foe which has tortured
me so many years, and can now eat
anything l desire withoutit is fruits or

To understand the scientific action
of Pe-ru-na it is best to have DIR. Hart

are mailed free by the Pe-ru-na Medi-
cine Company, Columbus, o. ALI
