EXAMINING SUGAR AT GALVESTON.

Since the passage of the Cuban
Reciprocity Bill, sugar importa
tions have increased enormously,
and sugar was this year brought
into the port of Galveston for the
first time, F. j. Bates, of the
United States Treasury Depart
ment, at Washington, arrived yes
terday from Galveston, in company
with Mr., W. Lyell Howell, Sugar
Chemist at the local Custom-house.
MIR. Howell has been to Galveston
three times this season, when ear
goes of sugar arrived in that port.
Mr.. Bates goes there from Wash
ington upon the arrival of sugar
cargoes, because the customs offi
cials in Galveston are not accus-
toned to handling sugar, and he
assists them in whatever way he
can in placing the proper tariff upon
sugar importations. Mr.. Bates
spent yesterday at the st. Charles
Hotel. He will return to Wash
ington to-day.-Rc.

BURLEY MUST DIE.

Washington, Aug. 1O.-Thepresi-
dent has declined to interfere in
the case of John W. Burley, a
negro confined in the Jail Of the
District of Columbia, under SEN
tence of death for the crime OF
criminal assault, the victim having
been a little girl four and half
years old. The president has
directed that the sentence Of the
jury be carried into effect on Aug.
26, as decreed.
An application was made to the
president to commute the sentence
of Burley to Imprisonment for life,
it being alleged that the prisoner
was of mind so weak as to be ire
sponsible for his crime.
Chief executive said "The
more we do what in us lies to secure
certain and swift justice in dealing
with these cases, the more effective
ly do we work against the growth
of that lyncbing spirit which is SC
full of evil omen for this people,
because it seeks to avenge one in.
famous crime by the commission
of another Of equal infamy."

RIGHT TIME TO ADVERTISE.

A writer who is keeping close
tab on the Importance of advertis-
ing to the country merchants says:
Those business men who do not
believe it profitable to advertise
during "the dull summer months
should note the catalogues arriving
from the mail order houses at this
time. Those firms know that the
merchants in small towns quit
advertising at this time of the year,
and so they flood the country with
their ads, and gain big victory,
while their competitors are "wait-
ing for business to pick up"
When business is light is just the
time it needs stimulation.

REASONS
Why our vinoi is the Greatest
Health Restorer and Strength
Creator Known to Medicine.

Because Vinol contains in concen-
trated form ALL of the medicinal cur
ative elements found in cod liver oil,
but without drop OF oil to nauseate
and upset the stomach; therefore,
wherever old-fashioned cod liver oil or
emulsions will do good, Vincl will do
far more good.
Because we have never sold anything
in our store equal to Vinol to restore
health and create strength for old peo-
pie, weak, sickly women and children,
nursing mothers, and after severe
sickness.
vinol cures hacking coughs, chronic
colds, bronchitis, and all throat and
lung troubles.
A prominent physician writes:
s'Vinol is the most palatable ana
valuable preparation Of cod liver oil
ever compounded. Inow use II entirely
In all cases where formerly depended
upon old-fashioned cod liver Oil and
emulsions."
Try Vinol on our guarantee to return
your money if you are not satisfied.

in resolution adds;
"This venerable and beneicient
policy President Roosevelt has un.

set up policy Of autocratic force.
His course, while filling the vacancy
made by the death of President
Mckinley, can only be taken as an
earnest of what he will do if the
American people, by electing him
President, shall approve his ten.
dencies and methods. Here is the
issue which every citizen must now
decide. The statesman who until

| NaVyf why not all All govern
mental power under the American
theory is derived from and dele
gated by the people. Why should
not the people reclaim and recover
all the power they have given away
to others and exercise it themselves 7
What is proposed concerning
Federal offices must apply equally
to State and Municipal Offices, and
when the ps2ple get that far along,
taking to themselves all the power
they have dele gated to others, they
would be ready, if they had not
previously accomplished the act. to
take possession of all business, in
dustries, commerce and all else,
and operate them for the public
use, and, in accordance with the
idea suggested above, they would
be called on to elect all managers,
overseers and every person in any
supervisory capacity in any and
every calling, because all would be
public business.
Here, then, would be millions of
officials to be elected directly by
The people, and the elections would
have to be held as often as the peo-
pie might desire to change their
public servents, whether yearly or
oftener. But such a universal
exercise of power by the people
could not be possible and omit the
Initiative aud "Referendum"
in legislation, for there have been
already loud calls for such restraints
upon Legislative assemblies.
For the benefit of those who may
not know the meaning of those
terms, it will not be out of place
| to explain that Initiative is the
submitting to the people before the
sitting of national, State and
municipal Legislative body, list
of subjects, with an outline Of
trea tment to be given to each as
the basis of law. The people
must vote on this list, and determine
just what matters shall and shall
not occupy the attention of such
Legislative body. That is the
Initiative.
The Refere ndum is submission
to vote of the people of every law
passed by the Legislature, whether
National, State or municipal, so
that the people may approve or re-
ject Mt their pleasure every such
law, and by this means it is impos-
sible for any measure to be put
upon the statute books unless il
had first been subjected to vote
of the people, and was afterwards
submitted for their approval or re-
lection.
1t therefore becomes plain that
whenever the people of a country
shall undertake by direct action to
elect all public servants, and to
control all legislation, SO much Of
their time and attention would be
occupied in voting at elections than
any other work, and all recreation
would be practically impossible.
All the time of the voters wonld
be taken up in public affairs, and
there would be no opportunity
to attend to any private matters.
Moreover, under such system of
participation in and responsibility
for the public business, the women
would be assnredly vested with the
right and duty to vote, and they
would be as much occupied as the
men in public affairs.
1t is plain that from the earliest
times those who were intrusted with
the duty of making laws for the
human society, and in constructing
governmental machinery for the
conservation of great pnbI;c in
lterests and the transaction of pub
| lie business, recognized the necessity
