years ago, he discovered that chemically
pure glycerine is a far better solvent Of
most Of the active principles residing in
our native medicinal plants when used at
a proper and sustained temperature than
is alcohol; and, furthermore, he found
that a glyceric extract kept much bet
ter than an alcoholic one, and that the
value, being demulcent, nutritive and an
effective ant-ferment. Although costing
somewhat more, DR.. Pierce predicts that
glyceric medicinal extracts will, in the
not distant future, largely replace alco-
holic. ones so generally prescribed by
or "patent medicine" manufacturers, as
being more efficient and entirely free
from the serious objection of making in
ebriates when used in lingering or chronic
cases, where a somewhat protracted use
of medicine Is necessary no matter how

Observation-Disclosures Roosevelt, Jr.
Summoned to Appear as a Witness
in n Grand Jury Investigation of the
Case.

Boston, Mass, October 2.-Further
investigation by the Boston police, and

nectiOn with an assault of the police
man on the Boston last Thursday

ing.
Summons was issued served on
young Roosevelt and Meridith Blag-

two friends would be compelled to tell
all they knew of the affair to the grand
jury, approached the Boston officer and
accepted the arrest On the warrant
granted yesterday for an unknown
person.
Police Commissioner O'Mara issued
a statement tonight to the effect that
the department was not satisfied with
refusal of Judge Sullivan to issue a
warrant for young Roosevelt's arrest,
and therefore a warrant for the arrest
OF an unknown person was obtained.
Today the grand jury came into the
case, and after District Attorney Moran
had talked with several of the police
officers, they were taken before the
grand jury and as a result the sum-
mons was issued for Roosevelt and

General Shafter says that one hum
dred American soldiers would be SUI
ficient to seize and hold Cuba at the
present time. If that be so conditions
must have changed there wonderfully
since it took all of Joe Wheeler's per-
sistence to make Shafter undertake TO
hold it with many times one hundle1
American soldiers. We think the less
General Shafter has to say on that sub
ject the more becoming it will be on

~EX-PRESIDENT PALMA.

Mr.. Palma resigns the Office Of pres
Iident of Cuba and retires from active
service in the interest Of his people
after a long life spent in Iaboring for
their freedom, a poorer man than
when he took up the cause of Cuba's
independence. He has devoted the bes.
years Of his life to his peoples cause.
He has served them well and faithfully
and now in his old age he is driven
from the presidential Office and the
home Of the chief magistrate Of tho
has impoverished himself in the cause
of his people. He has given his u
try the best of his life and all of his
estate, now TO BE- despised and con-
by them and denounced as q
traitor. Such is the gratitude of en-
.Iungrateful public.
President Palma resigns the Office
iof president Of the Cuban republic
because he feels that it will be to the
best interest of his people for him to do
so.
We hope that the invitation to him
make the United States his home will
be accepted and that his declining years
will be spent in peace and quiet in this
country. He deserves a rest from his
Ilabors and hat his latter days should
be spent in quiet repose and far le-
moved from the toll and strife that the
Iearlier ones were devoted to In the
cause of Cuba's freedom.
Cuba has had no more devOed patriot.
No one Of her sons has made greater
sacrifice than he in his patriotic raso-
luton to give up the honors which
have been conferred on him and to
retire to private life before the expira-
ton of his term of Office in order that
peace and harmony may be restored
to his people. We hope our country
may prove to BE- an asylum of peace
and quiet to him in his declining years,
after his life of turmoil and strife in
behalf of the freedom off hs people.
He has we'll earned such an ending Of
his strenuous life. and we hope it may
come to him.

OF CUBA.

The better class of Cubans seem to
that American intervention is for the
good of their country. Mr.. Taft's mi
tial steps as provisional governor have
struck a responsive chord with thOS1
people. They realize that but for such
movement on the part Of our govern
ment anarchy would soon prevail in
the island. We do not understand
where some Of the per Of this
country get the authority for their
statement that this government, I'M
der the treaty of Paris and the Plat
amendment-called by The News and
Observer the Teller amendment
has no right to interfere in Cuban af-
government of that island. AS we
understand it, it is a matter Of discre-
ton with our government. 1t guar
antees to the powers of Europe to see
that a stable government is main
tainGd on the island. 1t would be IN
senical to bind itself by such guaran-
tee and make it's right of interference
dependent on the whim Of the Cuban
government. The latter condition
might make nugatory any guarantee
of a safe and stable government. Gu
government would have been foolish
to make any such pledge. 1t would
have amounted to saying that it guar
teed a safe and quiet government but
that it would not attempt to enforce
such condition., should occasion arise,
unless the Cubans asked it to do 70.
What greater absurdity could there
be?
The guarantee Of this government
will in the end amount to annexation
of the island. We cannot say that
we advocate such action on the part
of our government, nor would we have
much TO say in opposition to such
proposition were it, laid before the peo-
pie for their approval or rejection;
but We look upon the annexation as
a natural outcome of present condi-
lions. Cuba is bounu to become a
part of the United States. 1t is as
natural and we may say as necessary
that she should be annexed as it was
that the Louisiana and California ter
ritory should be made parts of this
republic. 1t is bound TO come. It
may not be in the next few years. The
islanders may be given one more or
even several more chances at self-gov-
eminent, but in the end Cuba viii be
come a section of this republic, wheth-
er as a state or a province it matters
not, but it will be a part CT this coun-
try. Fate has it SO and it cannot be
avoided.

Senator Beveridge, of Indiana, says
THAT the United States will never get
lout Of Cuba. Senator Beveridge is a
republican and n Of the presidents
imouthpieces. Senator Simmons, of
North Carolina, says Cuba is one piece
lof ground the United States needs.
Senator Simmons is a democrat and
can generally be found opposing n
thing the republican administration
advocates. 1t is rather significant that
a close personal and political friend of
the president and a leading member
Of the opposition in the senate should
come SO nearly 70 expressing the same
views on the future of Cuba. 1t is re-
markable that the democratic sena-
ators should use language calculated
to convey the impression that our gov
eminent should take possession Of
Cuba because of the advantage to BE-
derived thereby and that the republi-
can senator should look upon such &C
ton as a matter of necessity.
