 It has long been very evident that there is nothing which gives President Castro so much pleasure as creating diplomatic difficulties for Uncle Sam. Yet there was time when Uncle Sam and all his family stood ready to go to war for the benefit of Venezuela. h. ternational gratitude, however, is a thing that never did and never will exist.-Milwaukee Wisconsin.
 Now that Sir Wilfred Laurier is back at his desk in Ottawa it is to be hoped that the business of settling the | long pending and irritating seal ques- tion will be taken in hand.

 It is the part of political discretion, prudence and foresight to choose q competent successor who will continue the main policies of the present ad- ministration-not because Roosevelt inaugurated them as mere legatee of the administration, but because they are the policies upon which the hearts of the great body of the people, republican or democratic, are set St Albans Messenger.
 Everybody has been marking time. The state is prosperous. Trade with the interior is good, but in all the ac- tivities directly pertaining to this city and dependent upon continuance of the steady growth which it has en- joyed during the last few years there has been absolute stagnation. All this was changed within 24 hours by the election of Mayor Taylor and the i'm mediate prospect of an honest city government.-San Francisco Chroni- cle.
 Now it is said the government is to be one of the three factors to control the silver output. Mexico and Can ada are to make up the trio Silver production of late has not kept pace with gold. You can readily see what this means in the future. It means the cheapening of gold and it is natural that step should be taken to handle the silver product the same as you would your own individual affairs. By that means the money power will con tinue to thrive.-Middletown Penny Press.

A NEW ANECDoTE OF LINCOLN
His Meeting With the Wife of Gen.
 eral Pickett.

The day after the great fire fol- lowing the fall of Richmond, Lin coin, with small body-guard, walk ed through the streets of the char red city. As he approached the cor ner occupied by Gen Pickett's res idence, he directed the guard to wait and to their astonishment ran two steps at a time up to the door and rapped. The servants had fled The "Baby-Bride" had never seen President Lincoln, but she had read his letters to her husband and from him had learned to hold in the high est esteem the great northern pres!- dent. With her baby in her arms she opened the door and looked up al the tall gaunt man with the sad face and uncouth ways.
 Without a word of explanation he asked:
 "Is George Pickett about?"
 To hear her husbands name bereft of it's title by a Yankee at that mo- ment was almost the limit. especial ly as many a rumor had fioated about Richmond concerning the fate which awaited the leaders of the Confeder. acy.
 With all the proud dignity she could command the Baby-Bride re. piled:
 General Pickett is not at home '
 The stranger seemed disappointed and as he turned to go remarked:
 'T am Abraham Lincoln. an old friend of Georges"
 Not President Lincolnl" Mrs Pickett exclaimed. The tall man shook his head, repeating:
 No. Just Abraham Lincoln George, Pickett's old friend"
 Following the instant promptings of the heart which still governs her "the Baby-Bride" thrust her baby boy into the arms of the gaunt Yan. kee. as her best effort to express heI veneration and confidence, saying:
 ''I am George Pickett's wife and this is George Piekett's baby."-wil- lard French, in The World To-Day for June.

Government officials who have stud jed the situation regard Judge Landis' action in ordering proceedings to he brought against the Chicago & Alton railroad people. in connection with the rebates granted by that road to the Standard oil Co. of Indiana. aa even more serious than the assessing of the S299. .240.O0O fine against the Standard. Under the law, the road granting the rebates Is equally guilty with the concern that accepts them. Substantially the same evidence on which the Standard was convicted will be used against the Chicago X Alton and the result appears to be fOregoue. A question that Is just now assuming deep interest is whether Edward H. Hartman. whose manipuIations of the stock of the Chicago & Alton has been shown by the interstate commerce commission. will be drawn into the case to be instituted against the Chi cago X Alton All of the evidence in the case sddueed by the government through the bureau of corporations and the interstate commerce eommis- sion will be used by the department of justice. in addition to that disclosed by the riaI of the Standard Indeed. it is known that Attorney General Bonaparte is spending part of his summer vacation in reviewing the evidence taken by the interstate con- merce commission on the Chicago 6 Alton deal

If this re- port, which has been given great pub licity, is verified. it will, it is said, be the first instance of the use of this new light on the eastern side of the Atlantic. and great interest will nat urally be shown in the matter by both electrical and the coal-gas interests.

CURING PYORRHEA

Very few dentists undertake to cure
