A FEW PERSONAL WORDS.
The Readers of The Argus Have on More
Than One Occasion Voluntarily Thanked
Us For Calling Their Attention to
Matters of Deep Interest to Them.

The Readers of The Argus Have on More
Than One Occasion Voluntarily Thanked
Us For Calling Their Attention to
Matters of Deep Interest to Them.
1t is this feeling of satisfaction that
prompts US to mention the fact that
the British Medical Institute has es-
tsblished q permanent branch Office in
Rock Island, at 1902 Second avenue,
and it offers it's services free for three
months to all invalids who call for
treatment before April Is.
The full importance of this munifi-
cent offer can scarcely be realized.
Suffice it to say that the British Medi-
cal Institute has on its staff a large
number of the most expert British
medical specialists in the United
States. and that DR.. E. Valentine Hea-
ton, the chief consulting surgeon, is
now in Rock Island and will remain
permanently. assisted by one or more
of his staff.
The reader should remember that
no charge whatever will be made for
consultation, examination or advice
(medicines excepted); and that all
minor surgical operations will be per-
formed free, the only condition being
that invalids must avail themselves
of this between now and April 10,
and from now until that date the office
will be kept open every day, Sundays
excepted. from a. m. till 8 p. m.
Male and female weakness, catarrh
and catarrhal deafness, also rupture,
goitre, cancer, varicocele, and all dis
eases of the rectum, are positively
cured by their new treatment.
Those of our readers who are ailing
should call at once and avoid the
crowding that will naturally take
place later on.
DR.. E. Valentine Heaton, the chief
consulting surgeon of the institute,
is in personal charge.
Office hours from 9 a. m. till p.
m. Not open Sundays.

OUR DUTY TO PORTO RICO.
(From President McKInIey's Mes.
sage to ConRress.)

88Se 20
"Since the cession Porto Rico has
been denied the principal markets she
had long enjoyed, and our tariffs
have been continued against her pro-
ducts as when she was under Spanish
sovereignty. The markets OF Spain
are closed TO her products except upon
terms to which the commerce OF all
nations is subjected. The island OF
Cuba, which used to buy her cattle and
tobacco without custom duties, now
imposes the same duties upon these
products as from any other country en-
tering her ports. She has, therefore,
lost her free intercourse with Spain
an Cuba, without any compromising
benefits in this market. Her coffee was
little known and not in use by our peO-
pie, and, therefore, there was no de-
mand here for this one of her chief pro-
ducts. The markets OF the United
States should be opened up to her
products.
sour plain duty IL to abolish all
customs tariffs between the United
States and Porto Rico, and give her
products free access to our mar

MR.. AYCOcK HAS MADE ONE vor

MR.. AYCOCK HAS MADE ONE VOTE.
Mr.. Aycock should 20 ioto
the swearing business. He has
made one vote by swearing and
that is more than he has done bv
speaking. In that, it seems, he de
ceived his man. Mr.. Crisp, of Le-
noir, N. O., told him If he would
swear that "the amendment would
not disfranehise any white man." he
Crisp "would vote for it," So Mr..
Aycock wrote out his affidavit, but
was very careful in wording it. He
did not, without "equivocation.n
swear that it would not disfran-
chise any white man. But Mr..
Crisp signed it and doubtless reali-
zes now that he bit at a baited
snare. Mr.. Aycock will not swear
that the amendment will disfran.
chise negroes, and will not disfran-
chise "any white man" That kind
OF an oath would be perjury If he
and other Democrats have told the
truth.
