THE IsThnIAN TREATY.
1t is Now Up to Her Majesty, the
Queen.

Washington, ID. O.. Dec. 2l-
The Hay -Pauncefote treaty which
is now in the hands of the president
is one of the most important meas
ures the president has had to deal
with during his term of office.
Many predict that the treaty will
strengthen the friendship between
the United States and England.
There is the danger, however,
of the Queens refusing to ratify
the treaty, in which case the senate
will abrogate the Clayton Bulwer
treaty This would undoubtedly
cause ill feeling on the phrt of
England. and it would call for
some very sharp diplomatic ma
neuvers.

A FEW SUGGESTIONS.

If you want to sell. list your prop

think will do business for you most
satisfactorily-one to whom peo-
pie come to buy-one who adver-
tises literally, far and wide, for
customers, and treats them right
when they come, and one who will
show your property to the custom
ers.
If you want to buy, go to the
same he knows titles. You
want clear title.
If your property or life is not
insured you are taking chances
long ones. Most of us can't af-
ford to take them. If you can't,
go to the agent who knows the in
surance business and is RESPONSE
bic citizen. Don't fear you won't
get the lowest rates-he don't let
