RHEUMATISM.

So little confidence has the average
man in the various cures for rheurna-
tfsm that he often suffers for years
without making any effort To find re-
lief. He then finds that il has become
chronic. This Is a mistake, as the pain
can always be relieved, and in most
cases a cure effected by applying
Chamberlaln's Pain Balm. The relief
from pain which 1t affords Is alone
worth many times its cost Il makes

ADMIRAL DEWEY VIEWS.

ssAband9n the Philippinesi said
the admiral, 81 don I believe our eoun-
try will ever do that. Certainly it
should not. because it has altogether
too much at stake 1t is only our con
troll over the Philippines that makes
it possible for Us TO insist upon the
open door in the east, toward which
our diplomacy has been directed for
number of years. We want our share
of the enormous commerce of the east
and we can't keep the door open for
it, unless we hold the islands
"Why did Spain for two hundred
years dominate the commerce of the
ORIENT Just because she had the bay
and harbgr of Manila as great com
mereial and naval base. That base
can be just as useful TO US CONNER
eially as it was to Spain. For the
past ten years every strong European
nation has been trying to get foot
hold for commercial and naval pur-
poses In eastern waters-G Germany,
England. France and Russia. Through
the fortunes of war the United States
obtained. rightfully and without
ehieanery, the best and most strategic
position possible, giving rs superior
naval and commercial advantages over
the other nations. What sort of com
mon sense would It be for Us to give
up such a positions
.sLook here, said the admiral,
turning to a large globe Of the world
which stands in his Office, suppose
we should dispose of the Philippines
and japan should acquire them See
how the islands stretch along the coast

washington Star, Sept. 21.)

| Washington Star, Sept. 2l.)
The propaganda for the relinquish-
ment of the Philippines is likely, it is
said, to meet with the. disapprobation
OF officials OF the administration and
members of the dominant party in Con-
gress. Thus far the opinions in favor
OF the seuttle policy have been express
ed for the most part by democrats and
few republicans out of touch with
the policy of the government.
That policy, as expressed in legisla-
ton since the events of 1898 and the
war with Spain, shows:
That the United States, expanding
the Monroe doctrine relating to the
continent of the western hemisphere,
insists that this government must ex-
ereise controlling influence over
Cuba and the islands Of the West In
dies, extending even to Santo Domingo,
to the exclusion of other powers of
the world.
That the United States contends
that it has interests in the Pacific and
the far Orient second to those of no
other power and must protect them.
Therefore, the retention of the Philip
pines is as much a feature of the
world-power policy of this government
as sovereignty over Cuba or the prin-
eiple of hands-off In South America.
SOME QUESTIONS TO BE AN
SWERED.
If the proposition to give up the
Philippines should come to an issue the
first question asked by Congress would
be, To whom shall they be solds To
Germany Whyf Because this gov
eminent does not possess the ability
to administer them, and Germany does
possess it, The answer to that ques-
ton is likely to be short and sharp. ]
Then. shall they be sold to Japan,
and if so, why's To enable Japan to
complete a Gordon from her northern
most island, down through Formosa
and the archipelago, to the southern
point of Mindanao, shutting off the
trade Of the eastern coast of Asiaa
Hardly.
Or shall they be put up to the high
est bidder, with a confession that the
United States is too feeble to carry
the burden of their administration, and
that this country does. not care to
engage in competition for the com
meree of the orientf
Or is the unspeakably craven PROPOSE
ton to be put forward that we'd better
sell them before somebody takes them
away9 Bold would be the man who
would venture that suggestion TO a
republican Congress. He would be
booted off the floor.
One of the men best calculated toI
speak on the problem of the Philip |
pines is Admiral Dewey. It was his
enterprise which resulted in the taking
of the islands by an American force
and the establishment of an American
base of operations in those waters.
Dewey discussed the question
with a Star man today.
