The Presidents Message.

The message of President Mckinley,
submitted to Congress last week is a
strong, able and conservative document.
1t gives to those to whom it is addressel
some sound adyice upon the problems
confronting the country and demanding
solution at their hands. 1t is also an ex-
austive document, treating of many sub
Jects, in which the country is vitality in
terested. AS to the Philippines the
President goes over the situation care
fully up to the presenr date, but leaves the
future solution of the problem, as to what
shall be done, in the hands of Congress,
He speaks, however, for order, peace and
Liberty with the largest protection of hui
man rights possible. Such legislation as
is necessary to permanently establish
this country on gold basis is advocated,
and 1t is urged that the secretary of the
treasury be given power to sell bonds
when necessary to meet any emergency
that may arise. The importance of up
building our merchant marine is referred
to at length. Congress should lose no
time in taking such steps as will insure
increasing the amount of our expanding
commerce that is carried in American
vessels. The study of China as field for
American trade and enterprise is recon-
mended. The President takes up the
subject of trusts at considerable length.
and leaves no doubt as to his attitude to-
ward the class which are formed in the
interest of the few as against the good of
the many.
The Presidents views with reference to
our duty to our new possessions are in
line with his public speeches upon the
subject previous to the last election. They
are in accord with those Of the people, as
was amply demonstrated Mt the polls.
These are but a few of the subjects
touched upon. The message is some
twenty-eight thousand words in length
On the outside pages of to-day's paper
will be found an admirable cOndensa-
tion of the document, and we would ear
nestly recommend a careful perusal Of
the same by all who have not already
done so.

IMMENSE majorities for any political
party are not wholesome. 1t tends to
corruption and loose morals generally.
In referring to the small majority by
which the Republicans hold the House
of Representatives at Washington the
Washington Star very properly says: !:
"Nearly all the comment on the situation
in the House includes reference to the
fact that the Republican majority is
small. And both the party and the coun-
try are congratulated on the fact. 1t is
an advantage. 1t insures caution and
conservatism. There can be no pranking
when every vote is necessary to pass
party measures. Consultations must be
frequent and thorough. Leaders must
keep in touch with their followers, and
followers must be on hand to support the
leaders. Tyrany on the one hand, there
fore, and negligence on the other, are
alike forbidden by the plain dictates of
safety and common sense"

"THE future government of the Phil
ippines rests with the government of the
United States. Few graver responsible
ties have ever been confded to us. If we
accept them in spirit worthy of our
race and our traditions, great opportu-
nifty comes with them. The islands lie
under the shelter of our flag. They are
ours by every title of law and equity.
They cannot be abandoned. If we desert
them we leave them at once to anarchy
and finally to barbarism. We fling them,
a golden apple of discord, among the ri
val powers, no one of which could per-
NIT another to seize them unquestioned."

THOSE ants who are quoting William
III. Seward, as an anti-expansionist be-
cause he opposed the annexation of Tex
as in the campaign of 1914, should go a
little slow. Seward opposed the annex
alton of Texas not because he was an anti
expansionist, but because he was against
the acquisition of any more slave terri
tory. The purchase of Alaska later con-
summated by Mr.. Seward, showed his
attitude upon expansion.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to leal n that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all its stages, and that is
Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only
positive cure known TO the medical fra
ternity. Catarrh being a constitutional
disease, requires a constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken in
ternally. acting directly apon the blood
and mucous surface of the system, there
by destroying the foundation of the dis
ease, and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assist
ing nature in doing its work. The pro-
prietors have so much faith in its cura-
tive powers that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to cure.

THE Goebelites of Kentucky are
downed at last, their effort to steal the
Governorship having failed after most
spirited and altogether unwarranted con-

and he was declared to be Governor-elect
of Kentucky. The official figures of the
vote filed with the Secretary of State Fin

If it is true, as it undoubtedly is, that
gold is now our standard of money val
ues, the future needs only the assurance
that it will so continue to be, until at
least the people shall be so united in
their desire for change therein as to be
able to direct the voice of both Houses of
Congress, and secure the approving sig
nature OF the Chief Executive. The con-
fidence that Congress will furnish this
kind ofa guarantee has inspired enter
prise, called capital into use, improved
the condition of labor, and given new
impetus to all our energies. To make
this favorable state of affairs permanent,
the highest security should be given
that the common denominator of all cal
culations in value shall remain un-
changed.-President Mckinley to Con-
