addressed by Sir William Broadbent,
who stated that it was definitely known
tbat every case of consumption began
with a germ communicated from some
other case. There is no such thing as in
heritsd consumption. There may be
local weakness which tends 70 consumps

planted in that weak spot before con-
sumption can cnsue. This ought to com
fort thousands OF people who have
weak chests or weak lungs" They
are not foreordained victims of this

I absolute defiance to this deadly
scourge, is TO be able to strengthen the
weak lungs, and build nj q strong
body. The answer to this need is found
in Or. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
coyery. 1t so purifies the blood and
increases the blood supply, that dis

RESIGNATION OF SIR
MICHAEL HICKS BEACH

London, Eng, July 14.-Arthur j.
Balfour was today formally greeted as
Great Britains Premier, and the new
regime began its work.
The momentous change was marked
by only one dramatic incident the
resignation of Sir Michael Hioks-B Beach
from the post of Chancellor of the
Exchequer. Yet this lack of outward
show to new chapter in English
history is by no means representative
of the disturbance which the sudden
transition created among the under
currents of political life.
1t is safe to say that Sir Michael
Hicks Beach is only the first of several
whose names have figured largely
before the public in the last half
century and who will soon disappear
from the political arena. Nothing
definite is yet settled, but the Unionist
party expects to hear of the resigna-
lions of Earl Halsbury, Lord High
Chancellor Lord james OF Hereford,
Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster,
and Earl Cadogan, Lord Lieutenant OF
/ Ireland.

They Did No. Want the Bill Passed.


Senator Joseph Ralph Burton of
Kansas is ons of the Republican Sena-
tors who stood faithfully by the beet
sugar interests and opposed Cuban
Reciprocity in the Senate, for which
course he is being roundly denounced
by many of his constituents In de-
fence of himself he declared in public
speech at his home in Abilene that
even the Republican Senators who
openly favored the Cuban Reciprocity
bill were at heart opposed to it and
desired its defeat. He said:
deny that tho beet-sugar Senators
were in the minority. Ii any one says
anything else he falsiiiss. II thirty
| Eve Republican Senators had come to
| us and said, I'VE are going to pass
that bill, - they could have done SO.
| They never came to us with such a
| declaration. On the other hand, they
came and encouraged Us to keep up the
/ fight. There are not fifteen Republican
Senators out of the fifty four who are
| in favor OF the present bill ut heart.
Beet sugar is Republican question
by authority.
There is small doubt that Senator
Burton reveals the real situation in thu
Senate in these pointed remarks. Th'
Republican Senators, every man o
them, are no doubt glad that tn
Cuban Reciprocity bill failed. The,
arc at heart opposed to any form Q
tariff reduction, particularly to tina
which would threaten to interfere wit
any favored trust. They assumed t
champion the Cuban bill because tn
, Republican party was pledged to II
but they rejoiced at the oppositio
, that developed, and secretly encourag
I this opposition, instead of manfull
/ striving to overcome it.
, Had the Republican majority of ii
I Senate sincerely desired it, the Cuba
' Reciprocity bill would have been Ia
r today. But they were at heart oppose
. to it. They betrayed the Republica
n party and the people of Cuba, and
will not be surprising if the poop
should hold the Republican party r
!. sponsible for their perfidy.

In view of the action of Gov. HUM
in ignoring the Regular Republicans
in his appointment OF registrars, the
Sussex Republican of Georgetown re-
minds him of his ante-election pledges,
when be is said to have declared; IF
| don't tote square when it comes to
making appointments, l will resign
my Office" Well, he is not "toting
square, nor is there any indication
that he intends to resign his Office.
The Sussex Republican feels con-
WINGED that the governor sis now
arrayed with the Addicks crowd in
their determination to defeat the Re-
publican ticket in the coming cam
paign and give the Democrats the
victory 1t even goes to the extent
of expressing its conviction THAT DR..
George W. Marshall who was nomi-
mated for the position by the Unions
at their convention, would have been
more liberal in his acts and would
have made better governor. He would
have been governor in fact, and not in
name only"
But tue Sussex Republican and it:
followers are too late in their opposition
to Gov. Hum. They should have op
posed him at the election and defeated
him. What he is now, he was then
an Addicks Republican. What he i
doing to the Regular Republicans nov
is only what might have been expected
then. And it is only what they ma.
expect indefinitely il they are fooiisl
enough TO elect Addicks Republican

When the Republican party "goes

will it say in answer to the question
why the Republican Senate refused to
accept the Cuban Reciprocity bill sent
to it by theRepuhlioan House OF Repre-

that it was because the bill was OBJ
iectionahIe to the Sugar Trust, in that
it absolutely repealed the ditferential
duties on refined sugars, which would
have been benefit to the people but
might have pinched the profits of the
Sugar Trust? And yet that is the only
