Discovered by Woman.

Another great discovery has been
made, and that too, by a lady in this
country. "Disease fastened its clutches
upon her and for seven years she with
stood its severest test, but her vital
organs were undermined and death
seemed imminent. For three months
she coughed necessarily and could not
sleep. She finally discovered way to
recovery, by purchasing of us bottle
of DR.. Kings New Discovery for Con-
sumption, and was SO much relieved
on taking first dose that she slept all
night; and with two bottles has been
absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs.
Luther Lutz." Thus writes w. G.
Hamnick & Co, of Shelby, N. G. Trial

Experiments a: Government
Now Being Conducted by Natives in
Some Points Of Philippines.

Now Being Conducted by Natives in
Some Points Of Philippines.
Washington, May 1.-The Stat
department has received a long re-
port by cable from President Schur-
man, CT the Philippine commission,
of the conference that a held at
Manila Saturday between the mem
bers of the commission and the
representative Of Aguinaldo. The
text of the dispatch was not made
public, but it was stated that Mr..
S~cbnrman's report agreed precisely
with tie Associated Press statement
Of the proceedings in the conference
as called from Manila.
It is declared at the State depart,
ment that the proclamation issued by
the Philippine commission jast be,
fore the beginning Of the last cam
paign represents the maximum con
cessiops to be made TO the insur-
gents by the United States govern
meDf.
It is realized now more strongly
than at any other period that the
capacity OF the Filipinos for self
government is an undetermined ques
t;cn. The United States govern
ment is willing te accord the natives
ar opportunity to test their abilities,
for the Philippine commission pro,
poses to allow them almost complete
control Of their local affairs, e1elcis-
Jag only such necessary supervision
through the United States army as
may be necessary to guard against
the consequences of mistakes on the
part of the native municipal and the
provincial officials in the first expert
ment at self government.
The experiment is already in pro-
gress in some points in the Philip
pines outside Of the island of Luzon,
where The Lated States authorities
have hoisted the flag and assumed
Sovereignty, yet have continued the
local governments under native
direction. So far as the reports IN
diclte these experiments are working
we'll, aid promise to have a good In
huence in shaping the attitude
toward the United States of a con
siderable element among the Flip,
pines, which has been suspicious OF
our intentions.
