The re-measureuent o. the town
of Muskogee was completed today.
As il well known the survey has
been completed for some time. but
a re-messurement was required and
for the past three weeks the survey
ing party has been engaged in that
work.
The survey of the town began
May l., 1899. The work might
haxe been completed sooner, per-
haps, but that part is finished and
the town is now regularly laid off.
The government win now approve
or disapprove the plat, however; it
is q foregone conclusion that the
work Of the surveyors viii meet
with the appreciation of the proper
authorities.
The work of appraisement will
begin at once and pushed forward
rapidly, as the treaty is in q fair
way to become the rule and guidance
of the people of the nation, and
there is no cause for delay in this
direction.
The survey and appraisment Of
the town will cost the United States
government between $13. 900 and
$l4, 900. .-Muskogee Times.

Putting food into q diseased stom-
ach is like putting money into a
pocket with holes. The money is
lost. All it's value goes for nothing.
When the stomach is diseased, with
the allied organs of digestion and
nutrition, the food which is put into
it is largely lost. The nutriment is
not extracted from it. The body is
weak and the blood impoverished.
The pocket can be mended. The
stomach can be cured. That sterling
medicine for the stomach and blood,
Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery, acts with peculiar prompt
ness and power on the organs of di-
gestion and nutrition. 1t is a posi-
tive cure for almost all disorders of
these organs, and cures also such
diseases of the heart, blood, liver
and other organs, as have their
cause in q weak or diseased condi-
ton of the stomach.

Candid but Cruel.

Whe President Mckinley only
three months ago declared that
Porto Rico should have free trade
with the other parts of the United
States and that we could not hon.
orably grant her anything less,
the New York Press attacked
him furiously as an enemy to the
protective system,
The Press now has the pleasure
of finding the president in exact
line with it's original position on
this question and in direct oppo-
sition to what he proclaimed as
his convictions three months ago.
But the Press seems to still
cherish a grudge against President
Mckinley for holding even for a
few days the wicked theory that
Porto Rican free trade was de-
sirable and would be honorable,
and the Press is cruel enough to
insinuate that the president was
whipped back into line by inter-
ests which will profit by a tariff
on imports from Porto Rico.
1t says:
"The Porto Rico tariff is a pro-
tective measure, passed In the
house and favorably reported in
the senate upon the demand OF
protected industries. 1t is goine
to stand as long as the Republican
party is in power, whether two
years or 20. It is silly as we'll al
cowardly for those who call them.
selves Republicans to lie about the
matter.'
That this is absolutely true does
not admit of a doubt. If there il
any authentic source of informa
ton on the subject it is the New
York Press.
But now that the Press and tn,
contingent of which it is the organ
have reversed the president AM
set him just as they want him
why should they tsunt the poo
man with his instability, not t.
say his subserviency to their de
mands?

PHYSICAL EXERCISE ALL
IMPORTANT.

DR.. Robert H. Greene has just
published a book called "Healthy
Exercise" in which he points
out the danger of giving up &C
tual work--physical toil-while
maintaining an ample diet. This
in the maturer years at least
loads the system with unneces-
sary food at the time it is least
able to care for it. Deterioration
is the net product.
Psychologists are now able to
prove that dying ofIthe old age
means as a rule the giving way
OF the muscular coating of the
arteries. When this coating
yields death follows, and the
skill of man becomes powerless
to prevent it. The muscular syss
tenn, in other words, gives out at
a vital point, when the other sys-
tens of the human body are in
good condition. The maintens
ance Of the muscular system is
the real secret of long life.
This can only be done by exer-
else in the. open air-exercise,
too, heavy enough to induce a
healthy perspiraiion, which
clears the body of Impurities.
No one who does not sweat daily
can be healthy, a vapor baths and
the like will not answer, because
the effect is too superficial.
Good, hard work each day is
what every man needs-work
that will change the old and
tired tissues Of the body for new
ones, thus increasing the cap
acity for brain work. DR.. Greene
even considers walking as toe
mild a form of exercise, unless
long maintained. The true rule
for the indoor worker seems tc
be outdoor work to the point OF
. WEAKNESS. Sin the sweat of thy
!, face shalt thou eat bread" is to
be construed literally. DR.. Green's
book should be in the hands o.
every one whose employment is
indoors, for it makes plain the
absolute need of genuine ply.
steal exercise daily, especially
to those of mature age.

Position.

London: March 7.-Ambassa-
dor Choaje's imminent departure
from London on a prolonged
holiday in The south and east Of
Europe has excited considerable
comment in political circles,
where his projected absence is
regarded as being a diplomatic
move inspired by the rising tide
Of sympathy in the United with
the Boer Republics in their he
roic defense OF their indepen-
dence.
The war feeling here now is
SO violent and universal IN the
circles where the Ambassador
moves that it might easily hap

his, he might find himself com.

react on the Washington gov

correspondent is now forced to
admit that American sympathy
with the Beers will constitute
the leading factor in the Presi.
