There was deputation of leading

send a telegram to say that he had

the crops in the Flathead valley were

but it was purely guess, for the
general has never seen the crops in

So far as the press of the country
is concerned, Sampson must fee
lonesome. The newspapers of the
country jump on to him almost unani
mously. This is to the credit of the
newspapers. 1t indicates that they are
still the palladium of the common
people, of democracy and of common
sense. Regardless of the merits of his
controversy with Schley, Sampson has
given abundant evidence that he is a
contemplate snob, with no sympathy
for the trials, tears and aspirations

"The conduct of Schley at the bat
tie of Santiago was chiefly remarka.
BILE for abject baseness. Taking ad-
vantage of SIMPSONS absence, Schley
sent word to Cervera that now was the
time to dash out of the harbor and
make good his escape. He assured
Cervera that he would take pleasure
in extending him every facility for
getting away free from molestation.
When Cervera dashed out of the
harbOr and the vessels of the Ameri-
can squadron other than the Brooklyn
instantly started in hot pursuit, Sch
ley realized that he had made a
horrible mistake. The squadron in
sisted on fighting Cervera regardless
of the pussilanimous Schley. There

PARDoNs FOR BANK WREckERs.

VNnOON0 run DAMN "nENNEnS.
A statement was issued short
time ago by the attorney for the de-
partment of justice at Washington,
dealing with the action of the presi-
dent in cases of national bank wreck
ers for whom pardon had been asked
The report covers the past eight years,
and while the statistics presented are
interesting as regards action on
cases where pardon was applied for,
it fails to enlighten as to the per-
centage of total convictions included
in pardons applied for and granted
in greater or less degree. During the
second administration of Mr.. Cleve-
land Al cases were favorably dealt
with out of A applications, and dur
ing the first term of the present ex-
ecutive SO cases out of 60 presented
for clemency received a kindly recep-
ton, which shows on figures some
what greater disposition on the part
of the present executive than of his
predecessor to uphold the punishment

steady decrease in the percentage of
cases of this kind favorably dealt
with would without any doubt what

people of the country. TO loot bank

have pinned their faith largely be-
cause it had substantial endorsement

punished severely and in which miti-
cation of sentence should be extreme

ably with Al cases out of "A is not

SUB-DISTRICT FEDERATION
Window Entertains "A Pleasant and
Profitable Convention.

The annual meeting of the Federation Of
Womens clubs in the third subdivision of
the second district was held in Window last
week. Owing to the nearness of the time and
place of the state federation meeting the at
tendance was smaller than usual, as many
women are intending to attend the Owatonna
meeting; but nevertheless this occasion was
both pleasant and profitable.
The sessions, which were held in the Pres
byterian church, began on Wednesday even
ing with the following program: Vocal duet,
Miss Hutton and Mr.. Henslow of Window:

and light collation. wa served.
The morning session Oh Thursday was
largely taken up with reports Of clubs and
business. Mrs Diement of Fairmont gave an
interesting paper on What Women's Clubs
Should Stand for in the Community" At the
afternoon session invitation was received
and accepted to hold the next meeting in Blue
Earth City. Two papers followed this which
were very thoughtful and earnest and pro-
voked much discussion. One Of these papers
was, by Miss Helen Hutton of Window on
The Place Which Works of Fiction Should
Hold in Our Reading; the other was by
Mrs H. A. Tomlinson of st Peter vice presi-
dent Of the second district, and was entitled
''Women's Faults and Fathers Failures"
The evening meeting was opened with mu-
sic by Misses Collins and Beard of Window.
Resolutions were then presented by the com
mittee appointed for that purpose these were

cred; aid rendered in programs and other
ways, and of regret that Mrs. Tomlinson has

kato then presented a paper entitled PRO

applications, II they accomplish anything, at
all. simply give transient relief.
The catarrhal poison is in the blood and the
mucous membrane of the nose, throat and
trachea tries to relieve the system by secret
ing large quantities of mucus, the discharge
sometimes closing up the nostrils, dropping
into the throat. causing deafness by closing
the Eustachian tubes, and after time caus-
ing catarrh Of stomach or serious throat
and lung troubles.
A remedy to really cure catarrh must be
an internal remedy which will cleanse the
blood from catarrhal poison and remove the
fever and CONGESTION from the mucous mem
brane.
The best and most modern remedies for
this purpose are antiseptics scientifically
known as Eucalyptol, Guaiacol, Sanguinaria
and Hydrastin, and while each of these have
been successfully used separately yet it has
been difficult to get them all combined in one
palatable, convenient and efficient form.
The manufacturers of the new catarrh cure
Stuarts Catarrh Tablets, have succeeded
admirably In accomplishing this result. They
are large, pleasant-tastng lozengers to be
dissolved in the mouth. thus reaching every
part of the mucous membrane of the throat
and finally the stomach.
Unlike many catarrh remedies, Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets contain no cocaine, opate or
any injurious drug whatever and are equally
beneficial for little children and adults.
Mr. c. R. Rembrandt of Rochester, ". Y,
says: Il know Of few people who have suf-
fered as much as from Catarrh Of the head,
throat and stomach. 1 used sprays, inhalers
and powders for months at a time with only
slight relief, and had no hope of cure. l
had not the means to make a change of
climate, which seemed my only chance Of
cure.
Last spring I read an account of some
remarkable cures made by Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets and promptly bought a 5O-cent box
from my druggist and obtained such positive
benefit from that one package that ] con-
tinued to use them daily until l now con-
slider myself entirely free from the disgust
ing annoyance Of catarrh; my head is clear,
my digestion all l could ask and my hear
ing, which had begun to fail as a result of
the catarrh, has greatly improved until feel
| can hear as we'll as ever. They arc a
household necessity in my family"
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are sold by drug
gists at so cents for complete treatment and
for convenience, safety and prompt results
they are undoubtedly the long-looked- for
catarrh cure.
