From Sylvan Valley News, Brevrad, N c.
1t may be question whether the
editor of NEWSPAPER has the right to
publicly recommend any of the vari-
Gus proprietary medicines which flood
the market, yet as a preventative of
suffering we feel it duty to say good
word for Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy. We have
known ana used this medicine in our
family for twenty years and have al
ways found it reliable. In many cases
a dose of this remedy would save hours
of suffering while physician is await
ed. We do not believe in depending
implicitly on any medicine for cure,
but we do believe that if a bottle of
Chamberlain Diarrhoea Remedy
were kept on hand and administered
at the inception of an attack much
suffering might be avoided and in very
mano cases the presence of a physician
would not be required. At least this
has been our experience during the
past twenty years. For sale by DR..
VIM. Connolly.

TILE PARDON CAME.

Today's cables from France bring us
the glad news of the expected pardon
being granted to Capt. Dreyfus by the
French cabinet. The result of the trial,
while foretold by the character of a
most corrupt military court, came as a
great disappointment to the whole
world. Civilized people in all lands
wondered how a court could dare to
commit such an outrage as tofind a YER
iict of guilty upon such evidence was
presented and when it was done they
stood aghast The ruin of France was
predicted, antiF'rench meetings are
wen now being held in various coun-
ries and such revulsion of feeling
against that nation has seldom been
reused in the worlds history. When
he verdict was finally announced it was
lnown that the corrupt military had
uled and every one felt sure that the
)ardoning power would be invoked in
he prisoners behalf Their hopes We're
rewarded and today the whole world is
pleased, but France, alas. her shame
Ne fear, will live forever.

LIBERTY AND 1.AwLEssNEss.

LIBERTY AND I4AWLESSNESS
Some Of the Cubans have crude ideas
of what liberty means, especially the
class that regards it as license to do
any unjust or indecent act. The order
of Gen. Ludlow suppressing the Recon-
centrado. paper formerly published
lat Havana, has been duly approved by
Secretary Root. The secretary not only
approves it but regrets that the pub
Fishers cannot be further punished. At
ter the paper had been suppressed its
publishers appeared in Washington and
protested to the secretary of war that
the action of Gen. Ludlow was an in
Infringement on the rights OF citizenship.
They petitioned to have the order of
referred the whole matter to Gen.
Brooke for report, who, in turn, re-
ferred it to Gen. Ludlow. The report
! of Gen. Ludlow, Endorsed by Gen.
Brooke, has been received at the war
department, and Secretary Root dis
poses of it in the following endorse
ment:
The Reconcentrado appears to have
! been vile publication. Its suppress
sion raises no question of the liberty of
the press. Every government is bound
to protect the community against pub
lho /. indecency. in this as we'll
las other forms. 1t is to be regretted
that the persons responsible for the
qualification cannot be criminally pun
shed. The order of Gen. Ludlow is ap-
proved, and the petition denied.
ELIEU ROOT.
Secretary Of War.
i Gen. Ludlow's report on the paper is
sweeping. He declares that the sheet
was used for blackmailing purposes
pure and simple; that it was immoral
to a degree, and asserts that his &C
ton was in no manner brought about
through any consideration of interna-
tional policies.
Some such lessons under military rule
may serve to guide the Cubans into
better ways when they establish civil
i government.

THE MURDER SUSPECTS.

1t may be that murder will out" il. !
the case of the two brakemen who We're
cruelty shot and thrown from their
train on the Great Western near this
city recently. A chain Of circumstances
has been linked around three suspects
two in the Nevada Jail and one at New
ton-of greater force than the evidence
that has too often moved Judge Lynch
to quickly resort to the rope route in
such cases. OF course lawful methods
will be pursued in the present case.
Accused prisoners are justly held to be
innocent of crime until proven guilty.
AS dead men tell no tales and as
there are no living witnesses of the
dastardly act, the difficulty in securing
conviction is great. Circumstantial
evidence points to these suspects as be-
ing the guilty parties. Confession may
also play its part to aid justice here
after. Human lives touch each other at
SO many points, and recollections of
passing events are so keen that it is
difficult for any one to move about
without attracting attention. The pub
lie is argus-eyed and it is almost i'm
possible to escape its close scrutiny, es-
pecially if acts are unlawful or un-
worthy. 1t is to be hoped in the inter-
est of justice that il these suspects are
indicted and tried, and are really guilty
of the foul murder, that conviction may
be secured.

Adams was prudent enough to see from
the very first that Boston alone or even
the whole of Massachusetts. could not en-
dure successfully the burden of the strug-
gle with England To secure even the
hope of success the cooperation of all the
other colonies was necessary. In the res
olutions of 1894 to which we have refer
red, the |ecessity of united effort is stated
thus: "As his majesty's other North
American colonies are embarked with us
in this most important bottom, we further
desire you to use your endeavors that
their weight may be added to that of this
province that, by the united application
of all who are aggrieved all may obtain
redress" This insistence on the import
ance OF united action was never lost by
Adams. He continued to struggle for it.
In 1868 he induced the Legislature to send
a circular letter to the other colonies.
Massachusetts was the chief offender. but
she struggled for a principle whose i'm
