For an Editor to Recommend Patent
Medicines?
From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard n. C.
1t may be question whether the
editor of newspaper has the right
to publicly recommend any of the
various proprietary medicines which
flood the market, yet as a prevent
ative of suffering we feel it a duty to
say good word for Chamberlain g
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem
edy. We have known and used thie
medicine in our family for 20 years
and have always found it reliable.
In many cases a dose of this remedy
would save hours of suffering while a
physician is awaited. We do not be-
lieve in depending implicitly on any
medicine for cure, but we do be-
lieve that if a bottle of Chamber
lain's Diarrhoea Remedy we're kept
on hand and administered at the in
ception of an attack much suffering
might be avoided and in very many
cases the presence of a physician
would not be required. At least this
has been our experience during the
pact twenty years. Sold by City
Drug Store and 7. n. Coleman.

TRADE WITH PORTO RICO.
Opinions Heard by the Ways and
Means Committee.


At the afternoon session of the ways and
an American having large interests in Porto
Rico urged the imperative necessity of all
lowing the Porto Rican products to enter
the American market free Of duty.
Mr.. H. 7. Oxnard president of the Ameri-
can Beet Sugar Association, was heard,
substantially on the same lines as in his
ate.
Chairman Payne asked Mr.. Oxnard il he
did not hold that the menace to the Arneri-
can beet sugar industry was not from the
sugar product of Porto Rico, but from the
possibility Of free sugar from the Philip
pines and Cuba
Mr.. Oxnard replied that this was cor
these other possessions would come in free,
thus bringing to an end the development
and prosperity Of the American beet sugar
industry.
James D. Hill of Louisiana, a sugar pro-
Queer of that state, spoke of the anxiety
felt as to the policy of the government
toward the sugar products of the newly
acquired territory. The chief fear, he said
was that the free admission of Porto Rican
sugar was but an entering wedge to be
followed by the free sugar OF the Philip
pines and Cuba
HI. S. Prick, in behalf of the American
League of Producers, made an argument
similar to that made by him before the
petition of the Porto Rican tobacco would
most affect the Ohio and Pennsylvania pro-
duct.
This closed the hearing, and the commit
tee adjourned until tomorrow, when a sue
cial session will be held for the purpose
it is understood. of considering the Porto
Rican subject, and, il possible, determining

Maj. Fulton, rs he was known in all
parts Of the country, was born in Balti-
more sixty-four years ago. He adopted en-
gineering profession, but at the out
break of the war enlisted in the United
States navy. He served three years on Ad-
miral FarragIt's flagship. the Hartford,

that vessel was engaged during the first
three years of the conflict.
After returning to Baltimore he was en-
gagged for time on the editorial staff of

music and play-writing. His most notable
work in the thea trical line was his libretto
of Jack Sheppard" and comedy, Mile.

ton for the ma jor," but of recent years

ON THE FINANCIAL BILL.
Messrs. Berry and Teller Addressed
Senate.

The last hour and a half of the session
of the Senate yesterday afternoon was
taken UP by Mr. Berry of Arkansas and
Mr. Teller CT Colorado who spoke upon
the pending financial bill.
Mr.. Berry demanded TO know what con-
sideration would accrue to the people of the
United States by a declaration that the
governments bonds should be paid in gold
and that the basis Of our money shall be
gold. He said that the outstanding bonds
OF the United States We're now payable in
coin, either gold or silver, both equally
good money. He charged, however, that
the proposed change was to be made simply
because the holders of the bonds deemed
gold the more desirable
In an incidental reference to the Rosr
war MI Berry said: While four-fifths of
the American people are in sympathy with
that struggling people in South Africa We
nave reason to believe that the administra-
ton Is In sympathy with d monarchy
In conclusion. he said that the people
were in favor of bmetallisrn, and that the
pending bill was dictated by the national
banks and by those who hold the wealth
of the country.
Mr.. Teller took the floor to continue his
speech on the financial question. He spoke
against the proposed legislation which he
SAID, placed 1t in the power of the banks
to dictate in the country's financial affairs
MT Teller admitted that in some respects
the country was more prosperous than it
was While ago but" said he, "a system
OF prosperity which touches few of our
people and leaves out the American farmer
Is vicious system, and the prosperity is a
delusion'
Mr.. Chandler said that to his mind the
great question in the bill was the adoption
OF the gold standard. 1t far outweighed
any other point. He inquired whether bonds
at present outstanding, under the provisions
OF the Senate bill, would have to be paid
in gold.
There is nothing replied Mr.. Aldrich,
IN this bill which changes the status Of
outstanding bonds, either directly or indi-
rectly."
bill declaring Culver river, Missouri,
not to be na'vigabls stream was passed.
After brief executive session the Sem
ate at 4:2O PIN, adjourned.

Situation in South Africa What Ought
to Have Been ENpected.

Inspector General Breckenridge has made
IA statement in regard to military operations
in South Africa, in which he says:
The situation in South Africa is gener-
ally what everybody. ought TO have antici-
pated when the war began. The English
have undertaken the subjugation of a body
of God-fearing frontiersmen, who know per-
fectly how to take care of themselves in
the open. how to overcome the obstacles of
nature and how to handle their weapons.
The Beers are as fearless as any white
men living. Besides, they are SO distant
from England that time becomes a point of
the first Importance. The British govern
ment is now undergoing exactly the same
experience it did with our ancestors, though
probably with greater difference in the
present case, as the points of assault are
farther from the seacoast, which is her
chance of communication.
in our case at the close of the second
war for independence, as We used to call
ii. probably no nation ever had a more in
Structive battle than the English had I'M
der Pakenham at New Orleans when they
met Gen. Andrew Jackson. There they
marched directly upon the position assum-
ed for defense by frontiersmen. who with
held their fire until they saw the whites of
the eyes of their enemy The discharge of
their rifles simply wiped away the British
liTes. The Beers pursued similar tactics
for 1 notice they waited until the British
were within 200 yards. when they opened
fire.
1.-The tactical requirements of the situa-
ton, fiuctuatinS day by day, prevent an
absolute judgment being passed upon what
induced a. movement upon any particular
day. In general terms it seems that no Of
1icer. under the conditions and ornaments
existing on modern battlefields, is entitled
to anticipate victory unless he has a posi-
tive instinct for the enemy's flank; and in
this case Gen. Butler, after first striving
to pierce the center, has made some effort
to turn his enemys left without success.
''The burgherS are very religious race,
brought up free and independent, and the
only way to dominate them is to whip them
individually. To capture their capital is of
less consequence than if their country We're
an emDire"
