LOCAL CUBANS WILL APPEAL TO
President.
Want Him to Use Influence to
End Cuban Trouble, Which
Has Rapidly Grown Serious.
Plat Amendment Gives Him
Authority to Intervene.
New York. Aug. 25.-The Tribune

New York. Aug. 25.-The Tribune
says:
president Roosevelt is to be ap.
pealed to by local Cuban residents and
Americans with commercial interests
in Cuba to use his influence to end the
strife now in progress before these in.
terests are interfered with, as it is
feared they will be. One word from
the president may, assert the men who
are behind the movement, suffice to
end the uprising.
"Col Carlos Mcguire, veteran OF
the last revolution in Cuba, who, ap-
parently, is the leading spirit among
the local Cuban Americans who are
opposed to President Palma, has draft.
ed letter addressed to President
Roosevelt. which he will forward as
soor as he has secured other desigred
Signatures.

many wrongs alleged to have been
suffered by the Liberals at the hands
of the government, which he declares
are responsible for the present upris.
ing.
ut calls upon President Roosevelt
to appoint. by the authority of the
terms Of the Plat amendment, a com.
mission to preside at a new election
for a president in Cuba, charging that
at the last election the rights Of the
people were ignored and that the con-
stitution was violated.
London, Aug. 25.-The newspapers
print editorials on the situation ir
Cuba, and speculate as to the probs
bility of the United States being
obliged to intervene to restore order.
However. it is generally admitted that
the American government has no de-
sire to take such step, as it would
mean the annexation of the island.
The Morning Post, in arriving at 6
similar conclusion, thinks the position
suggests that the difficulty of the
Spaniards in dealing with the "tur
bulent islanders" was greater than the
Americans were originally inclined tt
believe.
The Daily Mail thinks it is a mis-
take to suppose the rising can be easily
or swiftly suppressed, and that the
United States will be obliged to inter

The FIGHT FOR A FIGHTER.
Maryland Editors Rush to Support
DR.. Goldsborough's Anti
Cigarette Bill.

Evening times. Cumberland The
antl-cigarette bill, introduced in
the Maryland Senate by Senator
Goldsb0rough. is one calculated to
prevent boys from injuring their
health by the use of cigarettes The
Dill contains much merit and will be
approved by those interested in the
welfare of the boys OF Maryland.
One of the first questions a business
mar asks of Young man who applies
for , responsible position is whether
or not he uses cigarettes. Railroad
COMPANIES avoid employing cigarette
smokers schools and colleges announce
the Jack of mentality in boys who
snloke. the ministry condemns it aud
greatest of all the mothers plead with
their bows TO refrain from the olga
retta. Therefore. the bill, if passed,
viii meet the approval of most peo-
pie who seek the best welfare of the
future men of the State.
o
Easton Star-D Democrat The bill is
patterned after the Indiana law and
makes it a misdemeanQr for anyone to
manufacture, sell or give away ciga-
rettes or wrappers The cigarette
dealers are organizing to fight the
bill, and opposition seems to be devel-
oping in strange places-the Baltimore
News and HEALTH Commissioner Bos-
ley not seeing any good TO come from
1t. We believe the cigarette habit, as
generally practiced among youths and
some OF their elders to be very per-
nicio1s, and il a proper preventive
law AN be enforced, it should be pass
ed at once.
o
Mining Journal, Frostburg. -Balti-
more distributors of the cigarette will
unite in opposition to the anti .ciga-
rette bill because it will cut off a
part of our revenue. !"
This is strenuous reason. 1t argues
that il is economically more important
that the prisoner shall thrive than
that the boy shall be saved.

CILLS DOCTORS UNFIT.
Better Trained Ten Years Ago,
SAYS DR.. WdcOT.

Speaking on THE Ethics of the Allied Profess
night, DR.. Leonard Wilcox said that the young
physicians Of the present day less fitted TO
practise than those of years ago. He said that
they get too much theoretical work and not nearly
enough that is practical. The professors in the
medical schools, he said, should devote more time
TO therapeutics and teach the students the proper
ties of drugs and their application to diseases
When the average student comes out of college.
DR.. Wilcox said that he knew little nothing
about compounding prescriptions. He then goes
into a hospital, where he learns how to put
up 'nauseous'' prescriptions and in a short time
he does not believe in drugs and has become
therapeutic nihst," he said. If he doesn't do
this, Dr. Wilcox said, he became acquainted with
the representative of a proprietary medicine
house, who induces him to try some tablet and
sometimes it and sometimes it doesn't. No
matter which road he follows, DIR. Wilcox said that
invariably became a therapeutic nihilist."
DR.. r. Z. Stewart spoke of the temptations of
the pharmacist to take the short step that leads
to Quackery and the manufacture of nostrums.
He also spoke of the American Pharmacologtc So
ciety, which was organized some years ago for the
promotion Of pharmacologiCa practice, and which
is practically q treaty between the medical and
pharmacOlogiCal professions. he read severaI
rules of the society tending to eliminate alleged OBJ
jectionable practices of patent medicine manutac-
turers.
The medical and pharma ceutical professions are
certainly allied" he said. They twain should he
one flesh; and what God has Joined together let
arts argument was for the elimination OF the pro-
prietaTy medical system.
