stomach 1t often does harm by putting
a stop to the process of digestion.

Costly Government.

The government OF New York city
will spend more than twice as much In
the coming year as the government
OF the United States spent in the year
before the civil war. AS late as 1877.
only 30 years ago, the expenditures Of
the national government, aside from
interest on public debt, were less than
those OF New York city now. That in
clnded the whole cost Of the army and
nrvy, pensions, public buildings, river
s1d harbor improvements. the diplo-
matte service, the care of the Indians
he support Of the president, congress
and the entire civil service, and all the
Incidental expenses of a nation OF
nearly fifty million people. At the
present time the whole empire OF
Japan runs its government, aside from
interest on its war debt, for a little
over two-thirds the cost of running tho
municipal government OF the city ol
New York That navy which some
European observers think Is going tc
swallow our own costs less than SIS.

little over $5.O00,00 more. That army
which won the greatest three battles

comparison may be a credit to New

FORAKER FACTION.
Continued from First Page)

Foraker.
We refer with pride to Senator
Foraker's splendid career in all he
has undertaken-soldier, jurist, gov
ernor, senator-and his uuflinching
fidelity to every trust reposed In him.
He has sustained and held up the
hands OF every republican administra-
tion since he has come into prom +
nence and to efface his wise, prudent
and patriotic measures from the
pages of recent National Legislation
would destroy many of the most use.
full and benehcent laws of our nation.
His sagacity and courage in the
prosecutson and settlement of the
Spanish War we're signals, and will
ever live In the hearts of his grea tful
countrymen.
He Is the strongest man In public
speech before the public today and
every utterauce carries the courag e
of bis conviction.
His voice is always raised in defense
of the lowly and the poor man has
always found in him an unfailing
friend.
No man is too high in position to
receive his just rebuke and no man
too poor or neglected to come under
the shelter of his defence. We lave
had striking example of this in the
United States Senate recently and we
affirm our sympathy and approval in
the position he has taken.
BY nature, training and conservative
experience he is eminently fitted for
the great Office Of President of this
great country, and we reaffirm our
fealty to him as Highland county's
choice to reach that great goal and
this is the greatest homage Highland
county can pay to her most distin'
guished son.
During the reading Of the resolu'
tions there was frequent applause
and was the only time there was any
enthusiasm. The macs convention
was In session about twenty-seven
minutes.

No Need Of Cotton Famine.

The cotton spinners Of the world are
needlessly alarmed lest the ability OF
the south to increase her cotton pro-
duction will not keep pace with the In
creasing number Of spindles and
looms. Gov Hoke Smith OF Georgia
in a recent article or interview says
that his state alone. II necessary, could
produce as much cotton as is now be-
ing produced by the entire south. The
same is true Of Mississippi and more
than doubly true OF Texas. The labor
supply is absolutely the only dificulty
that prevents the expansion OF cotton
production in the south to almost any
limit that might be desired.-southsrn
