A Good Thing

German Syrup is the special prescrip-
ton of DR. A Boschee, q celebrated Ger
man physician, and is acknowledged
to tre one of the most fortunate discov-
cries in medicine. 1t quickly cures
coughs, colds and all lung troubles of
the severest nature, removing, as it
does, the cause of the affection and
leaving the parts in q strong and
healthy condition. 1t is not an exper-
mental medicine. but has stood the
test of years, giving satisfaction in
every case. which its rapidly increasing
sale every season confirms. Two mill
Ion bottles sold annually. Boschee's
German Syrup was introduced in the
United States in 1868, and is now sold
In every town and village in the civil
lied world. Three doses will relieve
any ordinary cough. Price Is cent?.

The Register stands singly
and alone in its approval of Smith
No other republican journal has
sanctioned his course, though sew
eral have unsucoessfuliy sought TO
defend it. The Registers defense
of Smith is nonsense veneered
with alleged patriotism. As we'll
might it defend Herod who order
ed the slaughter of infants under
two years of age. Gould any one
with decency in his organism, de-
Glare rs does the Register that
when General Jabob 81 Smith or
dered the slaughter of Everything
over ten," thus including boys,
Old men, non-combatants, girls
and women, that this archcriminal,
this beastly brutal fiend, acted un-
der any laws but those of the most
barbaric people? Where is there
anyone besides his attorney, Fun
ston and the Register that will
declare Smith did right? Let him
stand forth and by his action an
nounce his moral depravity.
President Roosevelt, upon learn
ing of Smiths order Immediately
decreed that he be court-martial-
ed. In his speech to the Sons of
the Revolution he implicitly con-
demned Smith by asserting that
the army should not be harshly
judged because of the actions of
one man.
The Register might engage in
the defense of the red mems prac-
tices, excuse Atilla, Herod and
the inquisition and justify Nero's
slaughter of the Christians. We
owe debt to the army but the
army owes debt to government
and to God. And when it, or
newspaper or an individual shall
so far forget divine DEGREES as to
Justify murder, rape, rapine, the
water cure. the rome cure and
kindred atrocities, the contempt
felt for them is deserved. Pref
dent Roosevelt voiced the convic-
ton OF the American people when
he said: "Nothing can justify, or
will be held to Justify, the use Of
torture or inhuman conduct of any
kind on the part of the American
army" Telegraph-Herald.

best belief is that he ID acting in

Populists Won't Stand It.

Conner Davies, editor Of the strong
est Populist paper in Kansas, the
Concordia Kansan, understands per.
iectly well the nature and effect Of
the dose fixed up by the Populist
State convention and declines to
swallow it. He states his reasons as
follows:
1--WE have not been Democrat,
don't intend to be a Democrat, and
the action OF this convention will not
make us pretend to be one.
"No intelligent man in the state
Of Kansas would believe US If we did.
1--WE have supported Bryan because
he was a pretty good Populst. DEM
ocrats have defeated him in two CAM
paigns for the same reason. They
have killed off Bryan-now they have
killed off the Populist party so far as
the state ticket is concerned. They
hold out Organism to us now. In
the campaign to follow we shall be
confronted with Cleveland-Hill-
Gormanism. The voice is Jacobs
voice, but the hands are the hands Of
Esau."

Governor Tait's mission to Rome
has not yet disclosed the necessity
for an "ultimatum" to the pope be.
cause the pope is no longer temporal
sovereign. All the governor Of the
Philippines can do is to tell the pope
what the United States intends to do
with the lands OF the friars in the
Philippines. This government will
do what it intends doing, and 1t in
tends only the fair thing by the church.
This country will buy the lands from
the iriars. II the friars will not sell
this country will take the lands.
Without doubt the pope knows what
conironts him and will consent to the
American plan. There is no "prob.
lem" In the Taft mission to Rome,
in spite Of the fury Of some anti.Cath.
Ollie fanatics. The Catholics Of the
United States are in no danger Of sid.
ing with the pope against this country.
The iriars will have to give up the
lands they hold by virtue Of titles in
their character hostile to their coun-
try's laws, and that is all there is to
the matter. The pope will not pro-

ing Cuban reciprocity which endorsed
MIR. Roosevelt's position on the ques.
ton SO briefly but heartily that by
necessary inference it condemned the
course Of the "insurgents" in both
house and senate who thwarted the
presidents policy. As telegraphed to
this part Of the country, the resolu-
ton on the subject simply declared
that 1--WE favor reciprocity with Cuba,
as urged by President Roosevelt. "
But the official text Of the platform
shows that the deliverance was q very
I -
different thing. This it the way that
| 1t reads in full:
1--WE favor reciprocity with Cuba,
urged by President Roosevelt, by .
plan which shall insure the profitable
interchange Of commodities, inure to
the advantage Of both nations, help
the Cuban people needing assistance,
but the chief benefits Of which shall
not enrich trusts, monopolies, or for
eign spectators, or which shall not
interrupt our home production"
This Is q straight endorsement Of
the senator's who wanted q business
like legislation instead Of sentiment
and is the attitude that, as the coun.
try thinks over the matter, is becom'

What NIX inley Said.

Many persons have forgotten the
exact words OF President Mckinley in
his Buffalo speech upon the subject
Of reciprocity. Here they are:
THE period Of exclusiveness is
passed. The expansion Of our trade
and commerce is the pressing prob
lem. Commercial wars are unprof-
table. A policy Of goodwill and
friendly trade relations will prevent
reprisals. Reciprocity treaties are in
harmony with the spirit Of the times;
measures Of retaliation are not.
III. perchance, some Of our tariffs
are no longer needed for revenue or
to encourage and protect our indus
tries at home, why should they not
DO employed to extend and promote
our markets abroad?"
