The readers Of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh be-
ing a constitutional disease, requires
constitutional treatment. Hall s
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, act
ing directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces Of the system, thereby des-
troying the foundation Of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and as
listing nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have so much faith in its
curative powers that they offer one
Hundred Dollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testi-
monials.

Inns government Is based upon the
fundamental idea that each man, no
matter what his occupation. his race,
or his religious beliefs, is entitled to
be treated on his worth as aman. and
neither favored nor Disseminated
against because of any accident in his
position. Even here at home there is
painful difficulty in the effort to
realize this ideal; and the attempt to
secure from other nations acknowl-
edgment OF it sometimes encounters
obstacles that are well nigh insupera-

tain. American citizens of foreign
birth, or of particular creed, who de-

stance, refuses to admit and protect
Jews. Turkey refuses to admit and
protect certain sects of Christians.
This Government has consistently de-
manded equal protection abroad for
all American citizens, whether ma
tive or naturalized. On March 81,
1899, Secretary Hay sent letter of
instructions to all the diplomatic and
consular officers of the United States,
in which he said: "This Department
does not discriminate between native
born and naturalized citizens in ac-
cording them protection while they
are abroad, equality Of treatment be-
ing required by the laws of the United
States.' These orders to our agents
abroad have been repeated again and
again, and are treated as the funda-
mental rule of conduct laid down for
them, proceeding upon the theory
that all naturalized citizens of the
United States while in foreign coun-
tries, are entitled to and shall re-
ceive from this Government the same
protection of persons and property
which is accorded to native born citi-
zens.' In issuing passports the State
Department never discriminates, or
alludes to any mans religion; and in
granting to every American citizen,
native or naturalized, Christian or
jew, the same passport, so far as it
has power it insists that all foreign
governments shall accept the pass

President Roosevelt and leaders of the

suggested. 1t met instant favor.
Favored by Roosevelt.
1t is known that Cortelyou suStaIns
very close relations not only with
President Roosevelt. but also with par
ty leaders throughout the country. He
is regarded as being admirably
equipped for the position, possessing
fine executive ability and Il thorough
knowledge of men and affairs. For
several years he has been intimately
identified with political management,
scarcely any man sustaining more con-
fidential relations with President Nc
Kinley, Senator Hanna and President
Roosevelt than he. If he should be
selected national chairman he would
resign his position in the cabinet.

Los Angeles, Cal, May Il. - Con-
trary to expectation the result of the
secret ballot taken last Saturday by
the Methodist general conference on
the subject of the retirement of Bish-
ops Andrews, Mallalieu, Vincent, Wal
den and Foss was not made public at
yesterdays session of the conference.
There is no doubt, however, accord
ing to the most reliable authority, that
all of the five bishops have been re-
tired by the vote of an overwhelming
majority of the delegates. The con-
ference adopted a resolution allowing
each retire bishop full pay for six
months from the date of their retire
ment.
The amusement question came up
for further discussion. DR.. Elliott, of
Detroit. presented Il resolution setting
forth that there was doubt in the
minds of many of the delegates as to
the constitutionality of para graph 20S
of the discipline. and asking that the
matter be referred to the judiciary
committee for a report on the subject.
The resolution was rejected.

POWERS OFFENDED
BY POPE'S REMARKS
Take Unction at Sympathy He Ex-
pressed for the
FOles.

Berlin. Ny 1T.-The Rome corIo-
spondent of the KOelnische Zeitung
learns that the pope has offended the
German. Austrian and Russian EN-
perors by expressing too much sym
pathy toward the Poles. Recently, he
saws. a deputation of Poles from the
three empires, including three arch
bishops. two princes, ten barons, and
ten counts, presented to the pope an
address complaining of tyranny.
The pope, in the course of sym
pathetic reply, said: You are the most
miserable and most unhappy people in
the world" This reply was regarded
in Berlin. St Petersburg and Vienna
as a reflection on the policy of the
three emperors toward the Poles. The
German papers sharply criticise the
speech.
