Imperial Extravaganc.

There is certainly enough conclu-
sive evidence to demonstrate that the
United States treasury is being de-
pleted to keep up the extravagant eX-
penses of an official style proper only
to an imperial regime. In his report
upon the Bacon resolutions demand
ing information concerning govern
ment expenditures in Cuba, Secretary
Root seems inclined to throw the
blame upon ex-Secretary Alger-that
is to say, Secretary Alger having in
augurated the system of making enor-
nous allowances of money to officials
in Gu ba for mere purposes of official
dignity. he continues in his footsteps
and winks at the violation of law in
volved. 1t is little curious that
such an idea could have found lodg-
ment in the brain of an American
citizen, whether in a private or Off
be No Independent action on the part
of a president of the United States
for which he could not be held re-
sponsible, yet such has been and is
the continual conduct of Mr.. McKin-
ley and all the mbers Of his cabinet
since the Spanish war.
Our occupation of Cuba is not an
American occupation. 1t is the per-
sonal occupation of the commander
in-chief of the army of the United
States. True, he is the president of
the United States. but in his disburse-
ment of fabulous fees and in sanction
ing the expenditures of enormous
sums of money to his own official ap-
pointees in Cuba, he is not acting as
president of the United States, nor as
an official at all, but as a commander
in-chief who has no superior, not even
congress. If Gems. Brooke and Lud-
low were allowed thousands of dollars
beyond their official salaries; if Col.
Bliss. the collector of customs. re-
ceived a special allowance; if Director
of the Post Rath bone received an adj
ditional allowance, and others re-
ceived large sums of money for house
rent, horses, carriages and for luxuri-
Gus parsphernalia, the people of the
United States have right to know
whether they or the Cubans pay this
money. If it comes out of the Gu
bans, it is simply robbery, and if out
of the treasury of the United States.
it is absolutely unwarranted by law
for the very reasons specified by the
imperialists themselves. that they
are not there as the United States.

some Strange CIrcumstanees.

The failure of the repu blican con-
vention at Peoria to put on the ticket
single candidate from that part OF
the state north of an imaginary line
running from Galesburg directly east
to the Indiana boundary, wherein
dwell three-ffths of the population of
the commonwealth. has been declared
by former Congressman w. n. Hinrich-
sen TO be blunder fraught with dan
ger to republican success in the start
this fall, a success still further men
aced by the fact that the powerful
German element was ignored by the
slate-makers. He also pointed out
that the nominating body declined to
consider resolutions expressing SYM
pathy for the Beers. The Tanner
aegis, under which the battle for the
governorship will be fought by the
republicans, was held by Mr.. Hinrich-
sen to be an EN- biem of i'll omen to the
party.
The ticket is a Tanner creation. :"
continued Mr.. Hinrichsen. For
several weeks before the convention a
com bination between Hanecy and
Yates was evident. They joined hands
in county conventions all over the
state and acted in unison throughout.
The Tanner people selected Yates as
a man they could use and the fact
that they were the controlling in
fiuence in the convention is further
shown by the circumstance that every
man on the ticket is q creature of
Tanner. Even Attorney General Akin,
who was supposed to be invincible,
was turned down for Tanners hired
man, Hamlin, and Fred Busse, who
wanted to be the nominee for treas
urer. was tossed by the Tanner Peo-
pie in favor of Williamson. The
nomination of a good ticket by the
democrats soon will show the
weakness of the republican ticket.
New and important issues are to be
discussed and Yates by no means can
hold his own against a good cam
paigner on the stump"

The British Medical Institute
Has Been q Success From the Start. Its
Ohcers at No. 1909 Second Avenue
are Crowded Daily.

A staff of eminent physicians and
surgeons from the British Medical in
stitute have. at the urgent solicitation
of large number of patients under
their treatment in this vicinity, estab-
lished a permanent branch of the in
stitute in this city at No. 1902 Second
avenue.
These eminent gentlemen have de-
cided to give their services entirely
free for three months (medicine ex-
cepted) to all invalids who may call
upon them for treatment between now
and May 80. These services consist
not only of consultation, examination
and advice, but also of all minor sur
gical operations.
The object in pursuing this course
is to become rapidly and personally
acquainted with the sick and the af-
tlicted, and, under no condition what
ever will any charges be made for any
services rendered for three months to
all who call before May 80.
The doctors treat all forms of dis
ease and deformities, and guarantee a
cure in every case they undertake. At
the first interview a thorough exami-
nation is made, and, if incurable, YOU
are frankly and kindly told so; also
advised against spending your money
for useless treatment.
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.

consulting surgeon of the institute,

THE success of Dick Yates in the
republican state convention shows
what strange things will happen.
Young Yates candidacy was never
from the first time it was mentioned
viewed seriously. 1t was regarded,
even in Morgan county, more of
joke than anything else. He started
out as the tool of a certain clique
down in Morgan county, who had it
in for Tanner and wanted TO keep
their county out of his control.
And the joke of it came in reality
when Yates became the tool of the
Tanner crowd for controlling the con-
vention.

The Question of Economy

Is far reaching and has direct effect
upon the family and community as
the individual. To illustrate, ayoung
lady in one of the Diamond Garment
Gutter schools claimed that she being
so economical in the matter of dress,
having had but one fine and three
plain dresses during the season, that
even learning the Diamond Garment
Cutter system would afford her but
little saving. We will admit that the
lady had been economical. yet when
the facts were obtained, her bills
were about $50 that she might have
saved by using the Diamond Garment
Cutter. There are five sisters in the
family and a saving of the same
amount for each one is $3.50 each
season. or enough to pay house rent,
or in a short time buy a nice home.
An equal amount spent twice year.
by half the people in Rock Island
would amount TO over one million
dollars, and yet we wonder why fam

$4,000 CLAIMS
Have Been Filed For Pensions on Ac-
count of SPANISH War.

Washington, Oct. 24.-Many inquiries
have been made recently at the pension
office as to the status of claims filed
for pensions by soldiers of the Spanish
American war. Commissioner Evans
said today that the bureau scarcely had
time to respond to all the inquiries, but
that the claims were being adjudicated
as rapidly as possible. He added that
some of the claims had been delayed
by the difficulty in obtaining the neces-
sary official records at the war depart
ment.
There have been filed "a 600 claims on
account of Spanish-American war, up to
Monday morning, October o. said the
commissioner. Calls have been made
for evidence in 3424 of these claims.
Medical examinations have been ordered
by this bureau in 28, ,224 claims. The diff
ference between the number of claims
filed and the number of the medical ex-
aminations ordered practically repre-
Sents the number of widows and depen-
dents claims; 4,237 of these claims have
been adjudicated already
when the division was organized
having charge of these claims, all claims
of widows and claims for gunshot
wounds and severe disa bility of soldiers
were given the right of way, practically
making them special and they were
promptly adjudicated. Twenty five
clerks were assigned to this work, and,
like other divisions of the bureau, the
work is now practically current. All
classes of claims are treated alike as
provided by law and the established
practice"

MR.. GODARD'S APPEAL.
Asks People to Vote For Suprem,
Court Amendment

Attorney General GODDARD encloses the
following in all letters, official or per
sonal, sent from his office.
Dear Sir-I sincerely hope you will
ask the voters of your vicinity to vote
for the proposed constitutional amend
ment permitting increase in the number
of judges of the supreme court If the
people understand the situation the
amendment will be carried by a large
majority.
1T provides for single tribunal, to
which all appeals from the district courts
shall be directly taken
TT provides for fewer judges and
offices than the system that we now
have
1.-The result should be:
"A more satisfactory tribunal for the
decision of cases, because the court will
be composed of more members and its
decisions Will be final.
THE expense of an appeal will be
much less to litigants than it now is,
where cases go to the court of appeals
and then to the supreme court
THE expense to the state will be di-
minished by cutting off the salaries of
two judges, two stenographers and six
clerks, with six less offices and court
rooms to be maintained.
1.-THE decisions will be more uniform,
and the reports of decisions can be pub
lished in one series instead of two
