THE OTHER SIDE.
For the Argus.

For the Argus.
Much is being written, not alone
Of the danger but of the injustice
Of the United States apnexing
Hawaii, Porte Rico and the
PHILIPPINES, and of the departure
of this country from its tradi~
tional policy of nonsinterference
with European Politics.
Let US for a moment view the
situation that c%onfronts this
country as a consequence of our
late war with Spain, a wal pris
marily undertaken to suppress a
great wrong to humanity which
presented itself constantly to our
eyes, and which was repellant to
our humane views. AS a result of
the declaration of wal between
this country and Spain, the
feet under Admiral Geo.
Dewey was ordered to the Phil
|ippines to meet and destroy the
Spanish feet stationed there.
low well these instructions were
obeyed let the story Of the naval
battle Of May 18th tell. This of
itself ended Spanish sovereignty
in these islands. Was this coun-
try to leave the ten million of
Inhabitants to the repacity of
European powers or to the am
bition of irresponsible native
chieftains?
To US it seems our duty to see
that in future the inhabitants
have all the liberty consistent
with a good. strong and stable
government, and the present
duty of this country is to hold
and to govern these islands for
the good of its people. We can
never consistently relegate them
to Spanish rule, or, for the mats
ter of thai, to any other foreign
rule, nor can we leave them a
prey to internal dissenslons.
To take another view of the
question, the time has arrived for
US to engraft u political views
Do every land and cline. whose
people are willing to accept our
theories of government, and as
the Isr8lites of old we're chosen
to lead the nations to a true and
living God, SO are Americans
chosen to instill the great truths
of civil and religious liberty to
all the people of the earth.
It is manifest destiny, which
40 man can escape. S.

"STARTED WITH A COLD"
So Says One of the Greatest of A merican
Physicians and he Proves what he says.

"It is surprising what mistakes
ven some of the best people in the
world make"
The speaker was one of the great
est doctors the worldha ever known,
and he resides in New York.
"Take for example one of the most
common things in the world, namely,
a cold. People speak of taking cold,'
there is really no such thing.
GA cold is a symptom an effect,
not a cause. Did you ever know an
absolutely well and healthy person
who took cold? I never have; even
under the greatest exposure. Yes,
indeed, a cold is symptom, not a
cause"
Tie gentlemen and ladies to whom
the doctor was speaking exchang ed
looks of establishment but they did
not dispute the words of the learned
DOCTOR"
"You may be surprised he con,
tinued, when I tell you that nine
tenths of all colds occur because
those great organs Of the body, the
kidneys, r out of order"
"More men and women are trou-
bled with imperfect kidneys than
with any other known form of dis
ease. The unfortunate thing about
it is that they do not know that this
is their trouble.
"Why? Because all difficulties, de
engagements and diseases of the kid.
neys which come to both men and
women are usually without any pain:
in fact, without any symptoms what
ever, and this proves just what ]
said at first, namely, hat "a cold is 6
symptom"
There was a look of amazement
upon the faces of his hearers.
Indeed" continued the doctor
most deliberately and earnestly, q
assert that the grip, which has beer
SO disastrous, which has brought sc
much trouble into the world, WOULD
never have had it's run if the kid.
neys of those who had suffered from
it had been in perfect condition.
These great organs, if unclogged
would have thrown the disease from
the system so that the grip would
have been unknown"
"Now there is but one great dis.
cuvery for the prevention and cure
of all kidney dificulties-that Crane
remedy, Warmers Safe Cure. Nc
class of people know or realize this
better than the medical profession
and no class is more ready to &C
knowledge it,"
Take my word, anyone who il
careful upon the first approach of
cold or grip and goes right to the
seat of all colds the kidneys-wil
not suffer long from a cold; will no
be oppressed by the grip and neeo
have no fear of pneumonia, because
the kidneys, unclogged, will open W
the system and throw the germs O.
disease out of the body. You car
depend upon this"

THE RISE IN COTTON.

NOW Ul1dU TIE SldpIG - OuG u
the farmers hands prices r adj
vancing, and six cents in New
York will doubtless be reached.
At any rate there is a better
market. Spinners abroad and
spinners at home want cotton, and
there is more activity than the
cotton market has felt in a long
time.
This activity is partially based
upon general prosperity or the
bull movements a part of the
latter, for that matter; but bull
movements in crops are not con-
Quoted wholly regardless of crop
situations. The cotton crop has
been overestimated. It is not a
twelve million bale crop, and sup
plies in the back districts are be-
coming unexpectedly small. The
interior has not the cotton that
it was expected to hold at this
easo of the year. This is due,
doubtless, to unfavorable weather
for picking. More has been left
in the fields on this account, and
more of the picked cotton is of
low grade, thus giving desirable
grades advantages in the market.
A wet fall and a severe winter
have worked the results that are
now shown in the cotton move
ments from the interior.
The forces behind the market
at present r of a permanent
nature, namely. an active de-
mand. and a falling off in
receipts. and q farther advance
in prices is not improbable. It is
to be hoped, however, that any
advance that may occur will not
induce planters and farmers to
increase the acreage Of the aps
preaching season. A determin
alton had been evinced to plant
less cotton this year. aud that
determination should be mains
tanned, not relax d The present
bull movement will benifit some
investors, and the farmers can
secure fair prices only through a
reasonable Limitation of the crop.
Ii they will hold to the plan of
planting less cotton, they can
name the price Of the staple
while it IS in their own hands.
When they plant a big crop,
other people make the prices. and
they do not raise them, as a rule,
until they have first secured the
bulk Of the crop.

Rev, Mr.. Jackson filled his
regular appointment at Pine

with universal approval.
We were shown a stalk Limb
less Cotton" q day or SO ago by
our neighbor MIR. Oscar Neal, aid
were favoraOly impressed with
it. Given the same distance in the
row and proportionately distant
between rows, it stands to reason
that more pounds can be grown
per ere than ordinary cotton,
and the lint is a finer texture and
logger.
The infant child ofMr and Mrs.
Whitford Edgerton was badly
burned to-day, the cradle being
turned over by it's little brother
and throwing the baby in the fire
while. Mrs. Edgerton was cut.
We were glad to learn it is no
more serious than it is and wish
for it an early restoration and no
permanent Disagreement. The
family have our sympathy.

A Bit of "SmOking Prairie"
Made Profitable.
A Mystery That Has Long
Puzzled MulTane
S SOLVED AT LAST.
1t Proved to Be a Deposit OF
Cement.
A Mill Now Completed With 100
Ton Capacity

Mulvane, Jan. 1.-THE coming week
the Agatite mill, near here, will start up
and begin turning out cement
For years there was smoking prairie
near Mulvane, about two miles north
and east of town. There are about SZO
acres of the land, which is situated
high, and while it was good grazing
land, after a rain and during rain II
would smoke heavily, presenting
peculiar sight. Some man visiting in
Mulvane was told about the smoking
prairie and went out to investigate 1t.
He pronounced it a deposit of cement.
Later a man quietly bought up all the
land and then announced that he had
fortune. For the last four months a
mill has been in process of erection, ana
it is now finished and the work of pre-
pairing the cement and putting 1t IN
barrels will start up. The cement IS
prepared by boiling and drying, the
work being done with great rapld1ty,
as the cement sets quickly. The capacity
of the mill is said to be a hundred tons
a day. The man who owns the helds
thinks the supply is inexhaustible. II
lies on the surface.
If the industry proves all that those
in charge of it think it is, it Will turn
out a fortune for those who own it ana
will eventually become one of the big
things of Sedgwick county. Cement
is worth about so a barrel. The Null
vane cement. it is said, can be pro-
duced very cheap and there will be an
immense profit on every barrel sofa.
