Supreme Court Decisions.

In another part of this issue viii be found a
synopsis of some decisions of the Supreme
Court ofthe United States concerning our new
insular possessions. In some the Mckinley
Administration is sustained, and in others 1t
is not The court is composed of six Repub-
licans. two Democrats. and one Cleveandite,
The general drift of the majority is that while
The government was wrong up to certain
point in imposing import duties upon goods
from the new possessions, Congress has power
to do as it pleases with Porto Rico, Hawaii
and the Philippines THAT is it can impose taxes
upon imports and exports.
In concurring with Chief Justice Fuller, a
Democrat, Justice Harlan, a Republican, held
with him that Congress has no authority out
side of the Constitution, which created it.
Any decision contrary TO this view is not IN
accord witt! the spirit of a republican form OF
government, notwithstanding the majority OF
the Supreme Court of the United States.

A DEMooRATIC REFORM MAYOR.

Tom l.. johnson, the new reform
democratic mayor of Cleveland, has
issued the following order: Public
gam bling houses and low dives must
be suppressed in Cleveland. In ad-
dition to his order that gamblers must
go, Mayor johnson has served per-
sonal notice on many prominent gam
blers, telling them they may as well
dispose of their outfits, as they would
not be tolerated. He accom- panied the
order with the information that if
found in the city without visible
means of support within a stated per-
iod, they would Immediately be sent
to the work house. In an interview
Mayor Johnson said:
II have been informed that many
gam bling houses are open. l have
Instructed the police to serve notice
on such places to close up and keep
closed during my administration.
That is one thing that can be sup
pressed. OF course, private poker
games are hard to reach; in fact. IL is
almost impossible to stop them; but
rooms where faro and such games are
played will not be allowed to exist.
$50 far as the dives are concerned,
Supt. Corner has been instructed to
close them up as we'll. Where disor-
derby houses are run in connection
with saloons the superintendent will
first notify the keepers that the houses
must be discontinued at once. Uni
formed officers will be placed at the
entrances to the places, and the names
of all visitors will be taken. l think
that will bring effective results within

NATIONAL FILTRATION.

The character of the grand fete in
French waters in honor of the dis
tinguished M. Loubet, president of
the French republic, reveals in unmis-
taxable terms a new political move in
Europe which has been taking form
for some time-a close alliance be-
tween Italy and France. At that fete,
so far at least as Italy and France
were concerned, there was not merely
a cold-blooded military and mari
time display, but the distinguished
representatives of the two govern
ments embraced one another and the
opportunity, as it were, to prove that
much affection existed and that closer
Relationship was desirable.
Italy has for some time past evinc-
ed desire to sever her connections
in the alliance with Austria and with
Germany. These evidences were. of
course, indirect, but so apparent have
they been that the German and Aus
trian press have loosened more than
one valve of bitter criticism. Italy
is pleased by it all. France is pleas
ed with Itsly's fiirtations, and Russia
is playing for a good hand in the
game. This means the possibility of
the formation of new alliance in
which Russia, Italy and France will
boldly figure. Much talk and con-
siderable action com bine to give this
belief.
There have been several occurrences
of late to lend emphasis to this posi-
bility. Austria is proposing to ex-
clude Italian wines, and this would be
a severe blow. France, on the other
hand, is offering commercial conces-
sions of an attractive character. The
law Just passed by the French
cham Der of deputies for the restora-
ton of religious associations does not
offend the Italian government, though
it is offensive to the Vatican. 1t sug-
gests to Italy that its dealing with
the Vatican may perhaps be facilitated
by an understanding with France.

CANCER

Sufferers from this horrible malady
nearly always inherit it-not necessarily
from the parents, but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through several generations This deadly
poison may lay dormant IN the blood for
years, or until you reach middle life, then
the first little sore or ulcer makes its APP
pearance a swollen gland in tie
breast, or some other part OF the body,
gives the first warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and pern1a-
nently all the poisonous virus must be
eliminated from the blood-every vestage
of it driven out This S. S. S. does, and
is the only medicine that can reach deep
seated, obstinate blood troubles like this.
When all the poison has been forced out
of the system the Cancer heals, and the
disease never returns.
Cancer begins often in a small way, as the
following letter from Mrs. Shirer shows ::
small pinp1e came on my jaw about n inch
below the ear on the left side of my face. II gave
