Kansas papers bitterly complain Of
the exaggerated reports published in
the eastern press about the flood sit
uatlon. The Star says the yellow
journals Of New York, and even other
publications, have printed the most
absurd stories. One paper told It's
readers that thousands Of persons line
the streets begging for something 20
eat They do not beg because they are
paupers. Most OF them have an abund-
ance Of money; but it is a question OF
supplies and money Is not needed. 9th
or Statements were made 20 the
effect that. 10000 persons were desti-
tute and homeless, that 9O.o0O railway
cars had been lost in the food; that
thousands Of persons line the streets
begging for something to eat; that
there Is little bread and meat IN the
city and that neither railroads nor
farm wagons can reach the town with
supplies"
It Is a peculiar fact that number
Of newspaper readers are not satisfied
with a statement Of facts They con-
slider that dry reading They prefer a
fancful presentation Of an occurrence,
to the simple truth, for the same rea-
son that they prefer reading a novel TO
peruslng history. There is always a
peculiar fascination about fiction
Facts as the late BIZ Nye put It, Are
like little children, born into the earth,
nude and. Ike little children. they
should be dressed" But newspaper
readers do not like the trouble Of dress
ing these children" They prefer to
have It done for them. And the report
ers generally do the dressing. and too
often the outward dr9pery becomes SO
fantastic, as to preclude every posi-
bnty OF recognizing the fact that
may be hidden under the folds and
lriueea
II Is a pity that so many newspapers
should be liable to the charge Of DELHI
crate falsiacouon. for mercenary rea.
sons II they would present only facts.
and let The public draw their own con-
ciusion' they would be more potent
foI good than they are.

TALKING OF ANOTHER STRIKE.

There Is some talk OF renewal Of the
coal strike, that ast year was so dis
os,rous The district boards Of the
mine workers have adjourned. With tho
purpose Of holding a Joint session on
tho 18Th Of this month, to determine
whether general suspension Of work
shall again be ordered The dlscord
seems to he about the recognition OF
certain "dIstrlct presidents OF the
minors. as members OF the Cancellation
board
But the point Of dispute appears to
be extremely fine, almost imperceptlble
The operators refuse TO acknowledge
the three presidents as representatives
Of the miners. but they cay they are
perfectly willing to accept them as the
representatives. Of the miners. provided
they ere elected by a majority Of them
ana at convention IN which nom
union miners are represented too To
the general public & would seem that
there is not enough Importance TO this
contention, to warrant a move by
which the disasters Of the last coal
strike would be repeated
when that strike was adjusted both
parties agreed to submit 10 the find
ings Of board Of concilatlon, in
which both parties were adequately
represented There should be no un-
necessary quibblug about credentials
The question Of making permanent
peace between operators and miners
IS The first and chief consideration.
And II the leading spirits Of the two
parties are unable to get together by
their own efforts, II is time for the state
to make arbitration compulsory, In the
interest Of the general public
The labor situation not only In this
country but throughout the world IS
becoming quite grave Dr. Chamber
lain. Professor in the University Of
Chicago, az q recent banquet ventured
to say That "thlngs are Transporting ia
Chicago which are causing citizens
grave concern" He alluded to the la
Dor question and the fact that people
are being denied the right to work and |
to manage their affairs in their own /
way he added Respect for civil |
law and obligation alone can save this
country from a clyn war In the next |
This may appear to be
an extreme view, but who can say'that
there IS no danger in that direction?

SENATE DISCUSSED
THE CANAL TREATY.
Morgan Has the Ban of Secrecy Re-
moved From Amendments.

Morgan Has the Ban of Secrecy Re-
moved From Amendments.
Washington. Feb. 21.-The Senate
spent nearly the entire day in executive
session. 1t was the legislative day of
Thursday, as the Senate had taken re-
cesses instead of adjourning. The Sen
ate met at II o'clock, opened the doors
at y o'clock. and for more than an
hour disposed of routine business. Up
on resuming the executive session, the
Colombian canal treaty was taken up.
Senator Quay had report read on 18TH
milan canal matters.
The reading of the report sent up by
Senator Quay consumed about three
hours of time, and after this was con-
cluded, Senator Pettus made a brief
speech. directed principally at the re
peal of the Spooner act by the treaty"
He said that as a legal proposition the
appropriation made by the Spooner law
for the purpose of securing perpetual
control of the canal would not be
available under the treaty providing
merely for a lease of the canal strip
He also said the American people would
not be satisfied with anything less than
thoroughly American canal, one which
could be defended by the United States
at all times, which the Panama could
not be under the terms of the treaty.
Senator Platt of Connecticut took is
sue with Senator Pettus as to the eff
feet of the treaty, saying he believed
that there were no legal obstacles in
the treaty to the acquisition by the
President of the canal zone, but he
contended that if there We're any such
obstacles they could be removed by
another act of Congress, reappropriat-
ing the money.
During the day Senator Morgan Sc
cured consent to the removal of the
injunction of secrecy from the
amendments to the treaty which have
been offered by him. Most of the i'm
portant amendments have already been
given publicity. but he offered two new
ones to-day. One of these provides for
an agreement between the contracting
parties that nothing contained in the
treaty shall be construed to alter the
terms of the Spooner act. The other
amendment is as follows:
1T is agreed that in respect for the
rights of citizens of the United States
under their constitution, and for the
present humane state of the Christian
religion, in which the ordinances and
prescriptions of the Spanish inquisition
have no place or tolerance. that the
provisions of the concordat of 1885, be-
tween his holiness, Pope Leo XIII, and
the government of Colombia, and the
laws enacted by Colombia, or that shall
be hereafter enacted in furtherance or
execution of said concordat, shall not

THE VALUE of CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful 1t il
in Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purpose.
Charcoal is 2 remedy that the more
you take of it the better; it is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
in the stomach and intestines and
carries them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further ACES as a natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels: it
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another. but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
Is in Stuart's Absorbent Lozenges:
they are composed of the finest pow
dered Willow charcoal. and other
harmless antiseptics in tablet form or
rather in the form OF large, pleasant
tasting lozenges, the charcoal being
mixed with money.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell in a much improved condi-
ton of the general health, better com
nlexion. sweeter breath and purer
blood, and the beauty of it is that no
POSSIBLE harm can result from their
continued use, but, on the contrary.
