surrender our sovereignty or allenate
foot of the territory thus acquired. The
Congress has not seen fit to do the one
or the other, and the President had no
authority to do either, if he had been SO
inclined, which he was not. So long as
the sovereignty remains in us it is the
duty of the Executive, whoever he may
be, to uphold that sovereignty and If be
attacked to suppress it's assailants. Would
our political adversaries do less?
1t has been asserted that there would
have been no fighting in the Philip
pines if Congress had declared it's pur-
pose to give independence to the Tagal
insurgents The insurgents did not wait
for the action of Congress. They as
sumed the offensive, they opened fire on
our army Those who assert our re-
sponsibility for the beginning of the con-
aict have forgotten that before the treaty
was ratified in the Senate and while 1t
was being debated in that body, and
while the Bacon resolution was under
discussion, on February, A. 1899, the in
surgents attacked the American army,
after being previously advised that the
American forces were under orders not
to fire upon them except in defence. The
papers found in the recently captured
archives of the insurgents demonstrate
that this attack had been carefully plan
ned for weeks before it occurred. Their
unprovoked assault upon our soldiers at
time when the Senate was delibera-
ting upon the treaty that no action on
our part except surrender and abandon
ment would have prevented the fighting
and leaves no doubt in any fair mind of
where the responsibility rests for the
shedding of American blood.
With all the exaggerated phrase making
of this electoral contest, we are in dan
ger of being diverted from the real con-
tention.
FUTURE PHILIPPINE Foley.
We are in agreement with all of those
who supported the war with Spain, and
also with those who counselled the rati-
fcaton of the treaty of peace. Upon
these two great essential steps there can
be no issue, and out of these came all of
our responsibilities. If others would
shirk the obligations imposed by the war
and the treaty, we must decline to act
| further with them and here the issue
was made. 1t is our purpose to establish

SORES AMD
ULCERS.

Sores and Ulcers never become chronic
unless the blood is in poor conditions
sluggish, weak and unable to throw of
the poisons that accumulate In it. The
system must be relieved of the unhealthy
matter through the sore, and great danger
to life would follow should it heal before
the blood has been made pure and healthy
and all impurities eliminated from the sys-
TEN. SIS. begins the cure by first cleans
ing and invigorating the blood, building
up the general health and removing from
the system "A CONSTANT DRAIN
effete matter UPON THE SYSTEM.
When this has been accomplished the dis
charge gradually ceases, and the sore or
ulcer heals. 1t is the tendency of these old
indolent sores to grow worse and worse,
and eventually to destroy the bones. Local
applications, while soothing and to some
extent alleviate pain, cannot reach the seat
of the trouble. S. S. S. does, and no matter
how apparently hopeless your condition.
even though your constitution has broken
down, it will bring relief when nothing
else can. 1t supplies the rich, pure blood
necessary TO heal the sore and nourish
the debilitated, diseased body.

Doorkeeper at First Refused to Admit
 Representative Cushman rf

Washington, March 8-(Special)- )-Will- lam Elroy Curtis is responsible for story about Representative Cushman, of Wash ington, who succeeds Colonel James Ham iton Lewis in the house. It appears that prior to Cushman's arrival the palm for be- ing the homeliest man in. the house was borne with dignity by Eddy, of Minnesota. Cushman now claims the distinction, and to substantiate them says that when con gress opened he tried to go into the house, but was stopped by the doorkeeper, who said:
 q am sorry, but I cannot let you go in there. It is against the rule.'
 But I am member of the house, in sisted MT. Cushman. q have to go in."
 The doorkeepor looked doubtful, and said: You say you are member of the house? What's your name and where do you come from?"
 My name is Cushman, and I come from the state of Washington" replied the new congressman
 The doorkeeper took down his list of members and studied the ''Cs" for awhile and as if speaking to himself, said:
 'Yes, there's a new member from Wash ington named Francis w. Cushman." Then looking at Cushman, he asked: Are you Cushman?"
 ''Yes, that's my name,' replied Cushman, who had taken it all very quietly, and the doorkeeper nodded to him smlingly, and said: That's all right, you are entitled to the foor' MT. Cushman asserts that as he stepped into the hall of the house he heard the doorkeeper say to his companion From, I guess we can let in most any thing after that"

Belt Machine Company, Shot and Seriously Injured Wm. Schin-
 dler-General Fight

Chicago, March s.-Labor troubles culmin- ated in a riot at Thirty sixth and Wallace streets this evening One man was shot and probably fatally wounded, and six others were injured, one of them seriously. The injured persons are. William Sehind- Ter, shot in the breast and seriously wound- ed Joseph Walsh, foreman for the Link Belt Machine company, nose broken and tendent of the same company, beaten about head and body, not serious; James Coffey, machinlst. bruised about body; Sam Bon stra, machinfst, bruised about body; Peter Speek, machinist, beaten about head; Nicholas Debar. beaten about face
 It is believed that other persons were hurt in the fight, but they escaped before the police arrived and their names were not learned. For some time the strikers have followed McLain and Walsh when they left the shop, and have threatened to kill them Tonight somebody threw a club at Walsh, striking him on the back of the head. He accused Schindler. and when the latter de- nied it a fight followed. A crowd of strik- CTS gathered around and Walsh believing that his file was in danger, shot Schindler Tn the breast. Schinder in reality had noth- ing ito do with the original assault upon Walsh having merely stopped to look at the crowd of men following Walsh and Mc- Lain. A general fight ensued and the strikers to the number of forty made an attack upon Walsh, McLain, Coffey, Bon- stra, Speck and Debar, who defended them selves vigorously. Although badly pounded up, they managed to hold their own and peat off their assaiIants until the arrival of the police.

QUEENS VISIT TO IRELAND
English Papers Comment Favorably
 Upon Proposed Trip.

London, March S-The afternoon press commenting on the same lines as that of the morning papers in pointing out the great significance of the queens visit to Ireland and her order In regard to the sol- diers wearing the Shamrock on St. Pat rick's day. The following from the Times and from the Radical Chronicle may be taken as examples of the whole trend of the London editorials:
 The Times says: "The queen, it is be- 1ieved, has been deeply touched by the de- votion and courage of her Irish troops, and has been thinking of the means which she can best convey to them and their fellow countrymen the gratitude she feels for their services so generously and so Loyalty rendered to her throne. We cannot doubt the masses of the Irish people will cordially appreciate the spirit in which the royal visit will be made. The queen goes amongst them as the representative of no party and no political cause. She goes ito pay an honor and a compliment to the Irishmen of the nation. There are, of course, ire concilables in Ireland, who would; be de- lighted to mar the success of the queens visit. if they could find pretext. It must
  conduct of her majesty's journey and the arrangements during her stay, not to give them pretext If it be made clear to the people that the queen has come amongst them only to thank them for what their relatives have done for her, they will pay little heed to the instigations of the disloy- al and give her a royal welcome with all the celtic fervor of their hearts"
 The Chronicle says:
 1.-The motive which prompted the visit doubtless in part is a desire to see and be seen by Irishmen in their own homes and contribute directly to the final reconciliation which both nations equally desire, but which the nationalists seem to strenuously resist Another reason, more personal, though scarcely stronger, exists in the wish of her majesty to do special honor to the part of her dominions which has furnished so many of her most gallant and devoted soldiers. Nothing could be better in- spired and more suspicious than this, two fold message to Ireland of her majeSty's visit and it's result at this time." .tf
