GOOD TIME is COMING
Justice Brewer, the Supreme
Court, Looks TO the Future
with Confidence.
TROUBLES ARE TO BLOW OVER
Honest Methods Will Follow the Pres.

Be Serene.

Milwaukee, July 10. - There has
been a good deal of disturbance in the
body polite the past year, and it is
likely to continue The nation is en-
gagged in the business of cleaning
house. Uncle Sam is disturbing a great
many. There are a great many that
wish he would not be so particular.
The truth of it is we have been a
long time fixing UP our front yards.
They make a magnificent showing. We
have forgotten that every house has a
back yard and have not been as par
ticular about it. We are going to clean
the back yards" These were the
words of Justice David j. Brewer, of
the supreme court of the United States.

"As a result of the work now go

will be truth and honesty in every
market industry. In the wonderful
shaking up a great many men will be
Unjustly condemned. Do not condemn
a man until he is found guilty; but
when he is found guilty, whoever he
may be, let him take his punishment.
1t has been my experience that while
there are many noble and true men
there are also multitudes of dema-
gogues that expect to ride on the
waves of popular excitement. Do not
listen to the demagogue-gi him lib
erty.
Honesty Is the Best Policy.
"a great many object to what is go
ing on. They say it is disturbing bust
ness and interfering with prosperity.
1t may be that some persons are in
terfered with in business; some tempo
rary embarrassment, but nothing will
better build up the country than to
give every man, whatever he buys in
our markets, just what it purports TO
be. In the long run everything will
be improved if everything universally
is just what it ought to be, and every
man in the country will be profted in
the long run.

Guatemala Kept Faith.

Washington, July 19.-The Guate-
malan minister, Munoz. is much an
noyed by reports from Salvadorean
points that Guatemala continued fight
ing after it had agreed to cease hos
tilities. "Such stories are absolutely
without foundation" he said. There
was no agreement to cease fighting I'M
til the armistice went into effect this
yesterday morning, and the enemies
of my government are endeayoring to
put it in a false light. Negotiations
for an armistice have been confused
with the actual agreement to stop war,
and i'll justice to my government l
hope it will be generally understood
that any fighting done previous to to-
day was not in violation of any peace
compact"

Battle Rages for Ten Hours,

Shortly before the armistice was
agreed to over 10000 Guatemalan sol
diers made a desperate attack on the
Salvadorean positions by way of Meta
pan. The Guatemalan artillery, sta
toned on high plains, fronting the Sal
vadorean positions, cannonaded the
latter increasingly, though the bad
quality of the shells and the poor aim
of the artillerymen resulted in the Sal
vadorean forces escaping without many
casualties. At about p. m, in the
midst of a torrential rain, the Guate-
malan fire increased all along the line,
and the Guatemalan infantry attacked
the Salvadoreans in close columns, en-
deayoring to dislodge them from the
positions held by General Tercero and
Colonel Hernandez Artega.' The battle
lasted ten hours and eventually result
ed in triumph for the Salvadorean
arms

Agreement to Stop Fighting.

The state department has not been
advised that fighting has actually
ceased, but the United States minister
to Salvador, Merry, and the United
States charge at Guatemala City both
sent dispatches to the department,
dated Tuesday, which announced the
agreement of both Salvador and Guate-
mala to stop fighting at daybreak yes
terday morning. Combs, the United
States minister to Guatemala, has not
yet reached Guatemala City, because
of lack of transportation facilities, and
the state department has sent instruc-
tions to Brown, the charge, to act for
Combs temporarily.

Washington, June In the Senate today Senator Morgan called up his resolution providing for the investiga- tions of conditions in the Isle of Pines. taking the position that the island is Tinted states territory and urging that if the question is not properly settled the result will be serious.
 He said that there was a disposition to treat the Americans on the island as vagabonds and outlaws in the in- terest of an arrogant policy on the mart of Cuba. AS an instance of what he termed the unfair conduct of the C,uhan government he said that the Americans who had undertaken to take a census of their fellow countrymen had been arrested. The census. how ever. had been completed and it showed that there are' about 2,000 Americans there.
 MT. Morgan spoke of a letter from the Secretary of State that the Isle of Pines is Cuban territory. If that is true" said the senator. why Is he +rving to get ratified this treaty out of the senate and rest upon his own sssnrance that the island belongs to
 He declared that the proposition em- braced in the pending treaty is in di- rect contradiction to the Platt amend ment and said that under the Paris treaty the Isle of Pines either belongs to the United states or reverts to Snatn: that under no circumstances car Cuba properly lay claim to 1t. He asserted that ohiection to his proposed s,,e,,,iry is due to the fear of unwel- .or1,,a discoyeries He said that General wood had hauled down the American siaa in inc Isle of Pines without au- thOritV.

 The only way by which the jewel can be recovered is by a surgical operation. The woman fears the surgeons knife and will not submit to an operation. The jewellers employed counsel to try to obtain order directing the operation. but Judge BerkA of the police court. held that the owners are not entitled under the laws of Nebraska to recover stolen property in this way.
 Miss Thomas confesed to the theft of the diamond. She had it concealed in her mouth. she says. as she stood by the coun- ter where a clerk showing tray full of unmounted diamonds. Detectives foi- lowed her from another jewelry store. where. 1t was said. she had made an unsuc- cessfui effort to steal diamond. When they saw her remove a stone from tho tray they placed her under arrest and to avoid detection the woman swallowed the stone
 Fearing serious illness the woman confess ed q few hours later. The police would not believe her at first. and 1t was only after putting her under the influence of nor phins long enough to take an H-ray photo graph that they were convinced The dia- mand was plainly shown in the negative.

 The King and Queen sought to re- assure the public by appearing today in an open automobile unattended by a military guard.
