There Is more Catarrh in this section
OF the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
local disease, land prescribed local rem
edles, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to
be constitutional disease, and there
fore requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the market.
1t is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to 2 teaspoonful. 1t acts directly
On the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Send for

A TOUCH OF IMPERIALISM.

The temper and disposition of our
accidental President are fast manifest
ing themselves not always creditable
to his position. His reprimand adj
ministered to Gen. Miles, who has
dared to talk on the subject Of that
villainous verdict against Schley, is,
we believe, without a parallel in this
country or In Europe. AS autocratic
as that Dutchman VINO now reigns oyer
Germany is said to The has never had
the arrogance, and we may add indie
cency, to talk to the commander of the
German armies after the fashion of the
present young autocrat of the White
House. It is alleged, whether with truth
or not, that Southern man talks
rougher to negro than anybody except
q f1atboatman when he cusses a roust-
about. No Southern man, even the
toughest talker, ever talked rougher
to a negro than Roosevelt talked to
Gen. Miles, end if be did it because of
the authority cited, which is as fol-
lows, deliberations or discussions
among military men conveying praise
or censure or any mark of appreciation
toward others in the military service
are prohibited" then that Sec
ton of the military code has no EARTH
ly application to the case, any man of
common sense ought to see it and the
whole affair is without the slightest |
justification.
But the cause was not here. Miles
had talked on the wrong side. Nobody
has been censured for talking on the
other side. Mark that fact Accord
ing to the reason of the reprlmand had
Gen. Miles sided with the majority of
the court be would have been just as
reprehensible-we think he would
have been far more so-but he would
never have been censured for so doing
by our new born monarch. The action
of the President in this instance is in
marked contrast with his action to-
ward Maclay, With the same section
of the code before him he has allowed
Maclay, who called. Schley coward, a
cravan and a liar. to remain in office
until recently, and even then most
politely requested him to resign.
There is one thing sure, and that is,
that President Roosevelt is beginning
to swell beyond normal size. Many
are the people who have visited the
White House recently who have come
away cursing him not loudly but deep
ly. 1t is no unusual thing to hear men
and women who have been there to see
him declare that he is the toughest and
most illmannered man they ever saw. {
He is likely to do one of two things. | t
He will bulldose his party followers t
into the most abject submission to his t
or he will become so distaste- /
full that he will rend his party to ID
pieces. We do not believe the North. t
ern and Western man will submit to o
Too much President, the Southern Re i,
