AMERICAN PROSPERITY

It has become so much the custom Of papers and people of other political creeds to pessimistically decry the ex- istence of the era of unparalleled pros- perity which obtains in the United States, and which could only have been rendered possible by the applica- tion of republican principles under re- publican administration, that it seems well-nigh useless task to even pro- duce proof of the far-reaching potency of American methods.
 A man convinced against his will, is still unconvinced, but what man can consult records and statistics without being forced to acknowledge that the United States, under republican ad- ministrations, has attained the mastery of the markets of the world.
 Take, for instance, in the far east, where American Pullman cars have displaced the slow and awkward camel in the conveyance of Hindu pilgrims to the sacred Ganges, or in Manchu- ria, China, where Yankee-made rolling stock and rails supply the railway which is the alpha of modern travel in the east. Wheat from the vast fields of the Dakotas has supplanted the maize and corn as the staff of life in Mesopotamia, and our windmills are pumping water for Syrian sheep.
 American sewing machines clothethe Laplanders, American dynamOs render light as day the purlieus of darkest London. A Yankee has banished the omnibus from England, and another will light Paris and make the sewers of Hugo's tales as light as is the upper world under the refulgent rays of the monday sun. A San Francisco mo- torman speeds the king of Corea to his dinner, and America has literally car ried coals to Newcastle, as we'll as cutlery to Sheffield and champagne to France.
 A billion dollars is tidy sum, but that amount and billion more is the balance of trade in our favor in our relations with Europe dur ing the six years just past.
 In Johannesburg seventy-five per cent of the two hundred million dol lars worth of machinery was of American manufacture. The Union Iron Works of San Francisco built the Russian ships which ply between Nagasaki and Russian ports.
 The railways of England, until a very few years ago, used not single American locomotive; now, every road in England has American engines.
 The ultimatum of the president and congress of the United States is the law of the western world, and our im- mense natural resources; our superior labor; our better use of machinery; our omnipotent industrial ideal; the devotion to business of our best trained brains-are all commanding advantages, so long as the adminis- tration of sound republican principles in this greatest of all republics is rigidly and firmly adhered to, to the exclusion of all things demagogical aI .,ht,na,snal

with the Alaskan arbitration tribunal
the United States will win its suit. Ac-
cording to an amiable custom which also
prevails in some of the higher courts, the
representa- ives of either side OF this con-
troversy have submitted to each other
copies of their contentious or their case,
as 1T Is called. The ease" of the United
States which consists of volume of about
500 pages of ordinary printed matter and
an atlas of maps, was sent to England
about ten days ago, and the British case,
which was due the 10th of April. arrived
by Saturdays steamer and reached Wash
ington this morning.
The British have made a much more
elaborate display of typographical work
but their printed volume and atlas are
large and cumbersome compared with
those of the United States Our atlas is
only about one-third as large and has
flexible covers, so that it can be easily
handled. while the British atlas is so large
and heavy that you cannot examine it
without the aid of a table or some other
support. Their evidence is printed in a
volume three times as large as that Of
the United States, and is bound in red
cloth, while our volumes are bound in
black Russia leather.
The volumes, which have just been ex-
changed, contained the evidence upon
which the claims of each nation to the
disputed territory in Alaska are based,
and the attorneys will have two months
to study them. Then on the 10th of jay,
they will exchange arguments in printed
form, which will be based upon the facts
presented in the case.

MACK SPEAKS OF ISSUES
Tariff Reform, Income Tax and An
thrust Legislation Are I'm
portant Points.

Buffalo, May 20:-Norman Mack, demo-
cratic national committeeman for New
York, has sent reply to the letter of R.
l.. Metcalf Of Omaha, on the possibility of
Cleveland's nomination. Mr. Mack says
the democrats should stick to their atti-
tude against trusts, demand conserva-
tive tariff reform, advocate income tax,
protest against government by injunction
and the blacklist and condemn the meth
DDS employed in the Philippines. Then he
says:
1t seems to me the friends of Mr.. Bryan and
those of Cleveland can unite in opposition to
these things without surrendering allegiance to
any Of our party principles. The selection of
the candidate must become secondary to the
enunciation Of the pla torn, which must not be
ambiguous on any proposition, but couched in
terms clear and explicit. 1t is, Of course, too
early to say just what the ma tional platform OF
next year will be, but 1t SCENES to me that one
constructed such lines l. have Indicated
should not incur the hostility Of the friends of
Mr.. Bryan nor of those of Mr.. Cleveland or any
other national leader. i'll word.
Democrats must unite IL they would march in

strenuous measures and his peculiar methods of
self-advertisement, is becoming more and more
distasteful every day to the people of the coun-
try.

LOCOMOTIVES IN AFRICA
American Engines Are Preferred
Above All Others.

London, May 20.-Sir George White
house, manager and chief engineer of the
Uganda railroad, who has just returned
here after seven and a half years spent in
constructing the line, speaks highly of
the American locomotives and bridges
used. He said to a representative of the
Associated Press: 1--WE have thirty-six
American and thirty-fo four British main line
engines. The experiment with the Ameri-
can locomotives proved entirely satisfac-
tory. They are 10 per cent cheaper, and,
altho their finish is not so perfect, they
are more suitable for mountain railway
like the Uganda road because they are not
so rigid and take the curves more easily
OF the steel viaducts along the line twen-
ty-six are of American and eight are of
English make. The American viaducts
are excellent, but the contractors were
greatly behind time, and took a year in
stead of seven months to erect them"

She was so ab- sorbed in her work that she neglected to give her health proper care-failed to take warning that the symptoms of approaching kidney trouble gave her, the sallow complexion and torpid liver. But Wine of Cardui cured her the same as it has cured thousands of others and Mrs. Mcdonald has written this letter in order that other suffering women may secure from Wine of Cardui the same relief she got from it.
 "For four years suffered with torpid liver until my skin looked yellow and dull. 1 then found my kidneys were affected and had severe pains across my back, and felt

 No suffering woman can afford to ignore such a letter as Mrs. Mcdonald writes. Her plans and advice have proved valuable in building up one of the greatest women's 8 organizations in the United States and she takes time to give advice which she knows will help you.
 Do not delay in securing this medi- cine. There is nothing to gain and everything to lose by delay. The choice is before you. Will or will you not secure relief now by taking Wine of Cardui? All druggists sell $1 00 bottles of Wine of Cardui as well as 25c pack ages of Thedford' s Black-Draught.
