 The fact that the inhabitants oa the ths Danish Islands have protested against the sale of the islands to the United States and have demanded that the question pc submitted to the people before final ac. ton is taken. is sad commentary upUn nni ducted ourselves as to make near neigh bors prefer to be subjects of king ram CT than risk the protection of their rights under the American flag is the most se- east upon our government, and yet we have deserved the reproach.

Wnlcn IS QerlVed from two Greek words meaning Ia wat cry humor" and Ito flow" But we know that rheumatism arises from a poison circulating in the blood.
 1t will occur to the sensible person, that to cure this disease demands the use of means that will banish all poisonous material from the blood. To accomplish this, it is only necessary o use for a reasonable length of time he remedy that has been curing rheu- matism for half century. That remedy is Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic. It purifies the blood; that is what it is for: It cures because it is a foe to all blood im- purities, and because it makes new, rich blood. When the blood is thoroughly re- newed and in its normal condition, rheu- matism must necessarily disappear. Get the genuine. Don't take any substitute. There is no remedy that is as good as Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic.

The Beet Root Beggar's Profit.

Cleveland Plain Dealer.
 It Is pointed out by the Roosevelt Re publican papers that since 1890. when MT; Oxnard played the part of exponent of beet sugar prosperity under all condi- tions the price of sugar has increased from a range of to 4.s4 cents pound to a range of 5.25 to $50 cents a pound. more than doubling the profits of MT. Oxnard's company. With $6 a ton profit instead of s a ton, and a net income of S2, ,OO0, 900 a year instead of s1,OO0OO0. there would seem to be no great hardship in store for MT. Oxnard and his associates. even if Cuban and Philippine sugar were to come in at half instead of three-quar- ter rates of Dingley tariff duty.

Some of the New Jersey people are kicking. we are told, against the exter- imitation of the mosquitoes They are proud of their little animals. They read all the jokes in the funny papers detail ing the size, ferceness and powers of their favorite bird and refuse to believe there can be any harm in him. Destroy ing them is looked on as a personal in- jury to the people and the State. and a vigorous kick is going up about 1t. They intimate that the mosquito is all their own and If others don't like them they can stay away. or go hang, for anything they care. We look for the Jersey Legislature to enact game law which shall include all the breeds and varieties of mosquitoes and protect them against ruthless slaughter by scientists and other iconoclasts who are always trying to reverse the order of nature and disturb time-honored conditions. The Jersey mosquito is as sacred fowl as The ancient Egyptian ibis was.

A Tennessee editor says he is out of politics unless some of his friends or some of his enemies seek office. In Alabama there are some men. who will feel even smaller than 30 cents when some warm and deserving friend asks their support at the polls and they are forced to acknowledge that they are not qualified to vote. And when some bitter enemy wants office these same men will can't vote against him. It is a condition for which they have only themselves to blame and we hope they will not allow anything to hold them in the do-nothing class after the next election.
