fiCinJ G0rruption.

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, Feb. Ma
jor General Guy V. Henry, military
governor of Porto Rico, has deposed the
mayors and councilmen of Aguadilla
and Moca, in the province of Aguadilla,
and has temporarily suspended the civil
authority in both towns owing to the
incessant political quarrels and the
gross official corruption. Captain Mans
field, Eleventh United States infantry,
who is now in charge q the district,
has been instructed to appoint new Off
cials chosen from the Radical party.
The offenders belong to the Liberal
party. General Henry intends his sum-
mary action to serve as an object les
son to other towns in Porto Rico and q
warning against similar failure of
self government from similar causes.
The order which General Henry is
sued on Jan. 20 suspending for one year
mortgage foreclosures and summary
judicial sales of land for debt has been
modified and will hereafter extend to
mortgage foreclosures only.

PARIS, Feb. 1.-The Iiberte, which
is usually well informed, says THE de-
cision of the court Of cessation in the
Dreyfus affair will be that the evi.
dence proves the existence Of a traitor,
but tnat neither Comte Estorhazy nor
Lieutenant Colonel Henry could answer
to the culpability revealed by the Sc
cret dossier." This statement is all the
more significant in that it is made by a
pro-Dreyfus paper, The Liberte adds:
THE despondency Of the Dreyfus party
seems to SHOW that the solution of the
problem is ae distant as ever. Another
feature Of the situation is the buoyant
demeanor of Comte Esterhazy."

Chickens are like humans. in that they
like q change of food. though what is
good for the production OF eggs is not
good for the fattening of fowls: when
you want to accomplish the latter corr
is the proper ration. Hens need much
water. for the egg contains about as
much water as the same bulk of milk.
Do not mix the breeds, for a mixed
flock for the farmer Is a delusion and
a snare. Little or no inbreeding should
be practiced. There r several ways
to get good thoroughbred fowls. The
best way is to get. say n male. and
from four to six females. Raise the
chickens from them. and the start will
have been obtained. Sell of your CON-
mon stock and use pure-bred males
each year..

Everything that affects the welfare
of the people is a legitimate subject
of comment to the real statesman.
The statesman is not a narrow
1t is the politician who is narrow. The
true statesman looks out o. the world
as it is. and seeks. as far as Is in his
power. to remedy evils and encourage
the good.
Catarrh In its various forms Is rap
idly becoming a national curse. An
undoubted remedy has been discov-
cred by DR.. Hartman. This remedy
has been thoroughly tested during the
past forty years. Prominent men have
come to know of its virtues, and are
making public u%tterances on the sub
ject. To save the country We must
save the people. To save the people
We must protect them from disease.
