bility of $4,000, being within the limits
of the Central Pacific Railroad Com

Poisoning the System.

1t is through the bowels that the body
is cleansed of impurities. Constipation
keeps the poisons in the system, causing

serious illness unless a remedy is applied.
De Wits Little Early Risers prevent
this trouble by stimulating the liver and
promote easy, healthy action of the bow

Mr.. Newlands was of the opinion that
the financial distress which now menaces
Cuba would have been averted by this
temporary reduction in duty and she
would have been given plenty of time to
deliberate upon the advantages Of an
nexation. He expressed himself very for
chilly as being against the employment
of any coercion in annexing Cuba, and
that the proposition to become a part
Of this country should come from her
Even in this case" continued Mr.
Newlands, IAN invitation from us is re-
quired, because otherwise Cuba might
fear. should she make application for
annexation she would be relegated to
the inferior position of a military de-
pendency or a colonial possession, like
the Philippines or Porto Rico. An in
vitation as is contained in the resolutions
/ have introduced would entirely disarm
her fear and assure her that after pass
ing through the formative state of an
organized territory she would be admit
ted to full equality with the other
States"
Mr.. Newlands is against this country
discriminating in its tariff in favor of
certain nations. as reciprocity means
discrimination and creates ultimately
jealousy and distrust fro mthose coun-
tries less favored in this regard.
Newlands, ''the distress of Cuba is so
acute that 1 think we could well make an
exception in her favor for one or two
years, meanwhile assuring her that we
are perfectly willing she should come in
on equality with the other States
From Mr.. Newlands standpoint, after
careful analysis of the situation, he
cannot see any assured future for Cuba
unless annexation comes, and that 1t will
come is his firm belief an opinion which
is shared by a number of public men who
are In line with his policy toward the new
born republic.
