An active mind, suffering from
overexertion, worry, trouble or the
cares of business, demands from the
body greater amount Of fuel for the
vital fires than the digestive organism
can supply. 1t requires certain am
mount of vital force to operate the
human machine, and when all the
available supply of force is absorbed
by the overworked brain there is moth
ing lett Tor the stomach. 1t IS easy
now to understand why irritability and
dyspepsia have become almost synony-
nous; why nervous person is usually
so very particular and capricious
about food. 1t is an almost undisput-
ed fact that no marked progress can
be made toward the ultimate cure of
any disease until the mind is put into
that calm, serene condition which is
natural to people in full bodily health
and vigor. DR.. Miles Nervine puts
the mind in just that condition. 1t is

and to have you and your people CO.
operate with us In military opera
tions against the Spanish forces"
Now clearly after receiving such
communication Aguinaldo had good
reason to believe that General Ander-
son, and as representing the United
States, sympathized with the aspira.
tions of the Filipino people. Or
rather would we say there was
nothing in such communication to
disabuse Aguinaldo of such belief but
only that to confirm him in the un.
doubted impression that his negoti-
ations with Consul General Wildman
and others had left upon him. Aguin-
aldo promptly rejoined to this COM
munication of General Anderson in
one of like friendly tenor, whereupon
General Anderson, on July 9th, wrote
to Aguinaldo, and requesting him to
set aside additional camping ground
for the American troops, as follows
II am encouraged by the friendly
sentiments expressed by your excel
lency in your welcome letter received
on the 5th instant to endeavor to
come to definite understanding,
which hope will be advantageous to
both. Very soon we expect large
addition TO our forces, and it mnst be
apparent to you, as a military officer,
that we will require much more room
to camp our soldiers, and also store
room for our supplies. [Cavite alone
was then in control of the American
forces. Over all the other territory
around Manila Aguinaldo's forces
held control.] For this l would like
to have your excellency's advice and
cooperation, as you are best ac-
quainted with the resources of this
country" And three weeks later, yet
before the arrival of General Merritt
and when General Anderson was still
in supreme command we find him re-
Aguinaldo for assistance in
procuring means CT transportation
for the American army, ''as it is to
fight in the cause of your people"
Clearly we have not done by Aguin-
aldo as we led him to expect.-The

President Grants Cabinet Officer
Against Colonial Policy.
Says President Mckinley Has Adopted the
British Policy.

Boston, April ga mass meeting
under the auspices of the Anti-1mper-
ialist League was held in fremont
Temple last night. The principal
speaker was George s Boutwell,, one
of the leading Republicans of Massa-
chusetts, who was Secretary of the
Treasury in President Grants Cabinet
He said:
II have marshaled portion of the
evidence that is at my command,
which proves or tends to prove, that
the President has entered systematic
ally upon colonial policy in imita-
ton of the colonial policy of Great
Britain. Four great events for which
the President is responsible in his Of
flee are reconcilable with each other
upon one theory only, and they all
tend to one concl u sion, an American
colonial system. First, mention the
protocol of Aug. 10, 1898; second, the
treaty of Paris, Dec. 10, 1898, then the
proclamation to the Philippines of
Jan, 5, 1899, and finally, the Philip
pine war of subjngation, which the
President is now carrying on, upon
his sole responsibility and without
special authority of law.
Mr.. Boutwell, declared that he did
not dispute the right of the United
States under the Constitution to ac-
quire territory, but instead that our
form of Government sin each and ev-
cry one of its attributes proceeds up
on the idea that the people, acting as
communities, are to govern them
selves"
The speaker then referred to some of
the reasons advanced by those who
favored the conquest of the Philippi-
mes, and said:

Editor Register;
Having been asked by so many
| men in Illinois if cattle can be raised
successfully in North Dakota I will
write a short letter for your paper sc
all may have chance to hear about
as good cattle, sheep and horse
country as there is in the world. We
don't feed on an average more than a
hundred days in year, and great
many winters not more than sixty
days. have known five winters in
the sixteen years that l have lived in
North Dakota when no feed was re-
quired, other than the native grass,
the cattle running out all winter and
doing better than they do in Iowa on
hay and stalk fields.
Now, for horses, they will live on
range four winters out of five, and do
well without shelter, or any fee d but
the range grass which find far better
than blue grass, as it seems to help
them stand the cold. All stock do bet
ter after the grass ripens in the fall,
and my experience is that they make
larger gains in October thau in June.
The grass cures on the ground before
frost, and having little rain after Sep
TENDER it retains all its nntriment
through the winter, and the snow does
not ;njura it as it does in more SOUTH
ern climates. All the snow is gener-
ally gone by the middle of March, and
the stock in fair condition to start out
onto the range.
AS for sheep raising, have tried it
and found that my profits were as
much for the amount of money invest
ed as cousin of mine, who has a
sheep ranch in Texas. The percent
age OF increase and weight in the
north fully pays for extra feed and
shelter.
Hay can be put in stock In large
for twenty five cts II ten, and
it costs twenty-five cents a ton to feed
it out. Two tons will feed 2-year old
steer through the longest winter. Prec-
tical men who have raised cattle and
sheep in this North Dakota have as
sured me that they have made, under
all circumstances, from % to so per

The prosecution of the war against
the Filipipos is an cffense to every
producer and every laborer and every
taxpayer In America. Our demand
must be this:
Withdraw the troops from the
Philippines. Leave the islands to the
Inhabitants. Let them set up a gov.
eminent for themselves.
The next step in the career of pub
lie crime, on which the country has
entered is the creation of mercenary
army to be composed of men with
whom, for the most part, we are I'M
able to have any personal intercourse
who have no knowledge of our insti.
tutions, and who will be bound to us
by no tie except that which may be
established between the oppressed
and the oppressor. Mercenary armies
have been the curse of every country
In which they have found employ
ment.

land, and a position Austria occnpied
to Hungary in 1S4s, when Kossuth
was carrying on a contest in behalf of

sympathized.
What sort Of government is the
