HAVE WE A MONROE MONOPOLY

Hon. Whitelaw Reid has undertaken
to explain to the graduating class of
the Yale Law school the attitude Of
the American people toward that
group of international relations Gov
cred in part by the Monroe doctrine
1t is position divorced equally from
logic and from the Golden Rule. The
American idea, according to Mr.. Reid,
is that we can enforce Monroe doc
trine for America, but that we should
not recognize the right of an Asiatic
power or combination Of powers to
enforce similar doctrine, for Asia. In
western goose is not sauce for the
western goose is not souce for the
eastern gander. Well, perhaps Mr..
Reid might have advanced on. the
Philippines In the face of combined
Russo Chinese protest, but we are in
clined to think he would have gone
alone The American people are log
fcal In their mental processes and
they like to do the Square thing
They are Also not totally destitute Of

WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge
so often expressed that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney and
bladder remedy, fulfills every wish in
kidneys, liver bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. 1t corrects
inability to hold water and scalding
pain in passing 1t, or bad effects fol-
lowing use of liquor, wine or beer, and
overcomes that unpleasant necessity
Of being compelled to go often dur
ing the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and ex-
traordinary effect of Swamp-Root Is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most
distressing cases. If you need a medi-
cine you should have the best. Sold

magnitude may be technically lawless,

If is it is possible to do SO.

For the "steenth" time 1t has been
announced that the Zimmerman pro-
nunciamento showing his relation
ship to the Democratic nomination for
governor will be given out this week.
Several alleged authoratiye statements
purporting to have emanated from Mr..
Zimmerman have been sprung at
divers times. but it would always de-.
velop later that they were not the real
article: But unless it slips cog the
genuine will appear some time this
week. Web p. Huntington, of this
city, one of the leading Democratic
editors of the state, says Zimmerman
will be the only candidate, unless May
or Tom concludes to duck in. He thinks
the former will be nominated on the
first ballot, II not by reclamation.
What course Mayor Johnson will and
will not pursue furnishes fertile theme
for speculation. The prognosticators
have had him running for all the big
offices, from the president down to gov
ernor. Meanwhile he stands pat on
his silence.
1t is declared that the attorneys for
the Bishop Beer Co. will ask for re-
hearing of the mandamus case decided
by the supreme court last week in
which the court ruled all beverages
containing alcohol are liable for the
Dow tax. They expect to bring the
case up on a point on which the court
did not pass, namely, whether dealers
of Bishops beer must pay the tax If
located within mile and half of
the Dayton soldiers home.
Mr.. Zimmerman called upon Hon.
John c. Welty during the morning and
the political situation was gone over
quite thoroughly by the gubernatorial
candidate and the Canton politician. II
is very probable that Zimmerman
called upon Welty to ascertain wheth-
er the latter would be a factor in the
coming state Democratic convention
Zimmerman spoke encouragingly Of
his chances for the nomination.
Besides callingupon Mr. Welty, Zim-
norman paid visit to Robert Shields
who is a delegate from the sixth ward
and several other prominent Demo-
Gratis.

Progress In Education.

The present commencement season,
during which the work of universities,
colleges and schools of all grades is
passing in review. emphasizes the
great progress this country has made
and is still making in the intellectual
training of its youth of both sexes.
From all parts of the country come
reports of the graduation of classes of
unusual size. the announcements of
munillcent gifts for the broadening
and extending the work of these in
stitutions and for the great demand for
men of ability to manage and teach.
The salaries offered educators capable
of filing such places are larger than
ever before and there is a more gen
eral recognition of the value of their
services from a commercial point OF

AS an illustration of the growth of

arrangements have been made for fifty

leave Toxic in the middle of July and
will proceed direct to Australia and
New Zealand, where they will spend
three months. Thence they will go tc

with the understanding that they can

to be found in the mixed company Of

who believe that II they lose they can

times risk funds that are intrusted to
them by employers. Gambling would

ed class of high-binders, free-boot-
ers and commercial Bashl Bazouks;
that they are robbing the people Of
the country every day and laughing
at them. Take the United States
Steel Corporation, for instance, and
see what has happened. The Off
cials OF that gigantic trust seem act
ually to be proud Of the number of
victims they have neeced in the
past year. They continue to give
out boasting statements of the rapid
ly increasing number of its stock
holders though It is apparent to the
most casual observer that every
man who invested in these stocks
since they were placed on the mar
ket has lost money. The total
shrinkage is more than so points on
both common and preferred stocks.
II takes $500, 900, 900 to measure
the loss of this trust, and still the
spider continues TO sit In his little
parlor and lure his victims and still
they come and have the lifeblood
sucked out of them A statement
was given out the other day that the
number of holders Of this stock had
increased over 5000 in the past
three months. During this increase
of over 6,ooo in the number of
holders of common stock in this

their product in this country where
they charge more than they do for
eigners, because the tariff wall
gives them the privilege, and they
rob the buyers of their stock by
manipulation of Wall Street.
Yet this Is the delectable gang of
unconscionable scoundrels who are
every day held up to US as the para

whom we must bow in all our
national elections; that we must
select candidates who are accept

Rescued from Suffering
and Death by
] PAINE'S
Celery Compound
THE GREAT rEDIcINE.
MR. ALFRED BROWN.
APromiuent and Popular Citizen. Says:
"Aiter the Use of Palue's Celery Compound.
Am Now In the Best Of Health"

The greatest of modern physicians, Prof.
Edward +. Phelps, M. D., IL. D., after years
OF long practice and close scientific study, gave
70 suffering and diseased men and women his
marvellous, life giving prescription, with the
conviction and positive knowledge that 1t had
peculiar virtues and ample powers TO cure.
Thousands of the strongest testimonials from
the best known and most reliable men and
women OF our country fully sustain the claims
made by DR.. Phelps regarding his ineompar-
able Paine's Celery Compound.
One OF the most convincing proofs furnished
comes recently from a gentleman widely
known IN the capital city OF the Dominion Of
Canada. We refer 90 Mr.. Alfred Brown, OF
O'Connor ST., Ottawa, Ont. Mr.. Browns
letter fully demonstrates the fact that the
greatest sufferer may cast off his or her burden
OF disease and become well, strong, and happy.
II proves, too, that the great medicine main
tains more fully than ever before It's unrivaled
place in the estimation OF people of wealth
and social standing as well as with the masses.
Mr.. Brown says:--
"I acknowledge with ,hanlfulness and
pleasure the fact that have been cured OF a
very painful illness of eight years standing by
use OF Paine's Celery Compound. had,
during the years of my illness, tried almost all
the advertised medicines without deriving any
good results. l was also treated by several Of
the best doctors OF this city, hoping TO find
that one Of them, at least, would understand
my case.
"I was getting worse, and was told was
ineurable. was indeed in n critical condi.
ton. could not 20 from the house alone,
as was liable to sudden collapse. I tried
hospital treatment, but no relief OF good results
came TO me. could not sleep; anything that
l ate increased my agonies, was extremely
weak, restless, tired, and despondent; was
obliged to walk about with my hands pressed
firmly into my left side to ease my pains; my
feet and hands were cold continually; had
inclination to vomit, had profuse, cold sweats,
quick breathing, and would be racked with
pain for hours at a time.
"After the regular use Of Paine's Celery
Compound for time, am now in the best of
health, have good appetite, and can use any
kind OF food. Thank God I am my old self
once more, all through the use Of Paine's
Celery Compound"
