A COMPLIMENT.

More than once The Independent has felt
inclined to say that It is a rare thing to
find a business man so thoroughly capable
Of pushing his work as n. II. Robson Of the
Bankers Reserve Life. Readers OF The
Independent have no. failed TO note the at
t%ractive. readable advertisements of this
company appearing in every issue OF the
paper. But Mr.. Robson is even more
capable as an insurance man than he is as
an advertiser. Perhaps no man in the state
has a more thorough knowledge of the sub
ject.
AS a straw showing the attractiveness OF
the Bankers Reserve ads. we quote from a
recent number OF the Easton pa Senti-
mel:
I'm the Nebraska Independent, published
at Lincoln, Neb., is an advertisement OF a
life Insurance company that contains a sug-
gestion that may we'll be styled unique 1t
is the nomination of Theodore Roosevelt
for president and John Mitchell for vice
president on the same ticket. The writer
is evidently a republican and means what
he says.
"If Roosevelt and Mitchell should be the
republican nominees 1t would not be more
surprising than to see Grover Cleveland, II
not the democratic candidate, at least with
the influence to name him.
Stranger events than the above sugges-
lions have taken place in American poll
tics."-The Nebraska Independent.

NOT DUE TO CLIMATE.
catarrh is Found Everywhere.


Catarrh is at home anywhere and every
where. While more Common in cold,
Ohangeable climates, It is by no means con-
fined to them. but is prevalent In every
state and territory in the union.
The common definition OF catarrh Is a
chronic cold in the head, which II long
neglected often destroys the sense OF smell
and hearing; but there are many other
forms of the disease even more obstinate
and dangerous.
Catarrh Of the throat and bronchial tubes,
as well as eatarrh of the stomach and liver,
are almost az common as nasal catRrrh and
generally more difficult to cure.
Catarrh is undoubtedly a blood disease
and can only be successfully eradicated by
an Internal treatment. Sprays, washes
and powders are useless, as far as reach

eerned.

OPERATORS ARE TOO SINCERE
Mitchell Says Adherence to False
Principles Has Prolonged
Coal Troubles.

BUFFALO, N. Y, Dec. 17.-John Mitchell,
president OF. the United Mine Workers, was
asked tonight during an impromptI ovation
in his honor:
what do you believe is the cause of the
prolongation of the trouble between the
miners and the. operators?"
principally the sincerity of some of the
captains of industry he said. II believe
that Mr.. Baer and some of the coal barons
are sincere and mean everything they say,
but they have. wrong ideas and principles,
and it is next to impossible to get them to
acknowledge tbs, facts. Mr.. Baer, in my
opinion, is an honest man, and lives ac-
cdrding to his pri3tiples." t ~"

Tower at Berlin. says the Worlds CORE
spondent at Washington, TO ask the German
government to define for this country ex-
actly what is meant by a peaceful block
ade."
The dispatch was couched in the s%uavest
language, but It was insistent that Ger
many should reply.
This inquiry. was decided. upon at the
cabinet meeting, where II was discussed
fully.
II Germany insists on its right to block
ade peaceably and refuses TO let American
ships through, then Admiral Dewey's feet
will be sent to Venezuela to convoy
American ships through the German and
English lines. Admira Dewey has been
told to keep his fleet together.

He said:
1t seems to us that the questions, so far
as they concern the individual operators,
may be considered under three general
First. Wages.
Second. Hours Of labor.
Third. Nouunion men and discrimination
Proceeding, he also asked tina the
miners union, as such, should not be con-
sidered by the commission, and went on to
say that the question Of wages should be
settled separately for each %colllery.
He continues:
As we understand 1t one Of the chief
duties OF the commission is to ascertain the
value of labor in and about the mines. 1t
is purely. a business problem. II is ,he
value OF the labor and not the necessities OF
the laborer that we are trying to ascertain.
The laborer is worthy of his hire, but the
hire Is fixed according to What he does; not
what he needs. o..
The length of a WORKING day Is a matter
In which the Individual operators are par
ticularly Interested. As a rule their work
necessarily have greater expenses for
pumping and lifting the coal. The business
itself necessarily entails large fixed charges

differed with him.
Mr.. barrow insisted, and Mr.. Brumm,
