DIR. DON ESPINOSA OUT AS MINISTER Withdraws from Washington Because Brother is in Nicaraguan
 Revolution.
 
zELAYA ACCEPTS RESIGNATION
Special from United Press.l

NSuSyidl ITOln OuALCQ 1ICSo.l
 Washington. Oct. 27.-Dr. Don Rodoi- fo Espinosa, minister of the Nicara- guan government in Washington. ad- mitted to-day that he had rendered his resignation to President Zelaya and that it had been accepted. He received the permission of his government to turn over the affairs of the legatio ! immediately to the secretary as Charge D'Affaires.
 The principal reason for Espinosa's s withdrawal is the fact that his broth CT, Emilio Espinosa, is prominently identified with the revolutionary move ment and as the only minister ap- pointed by the revolutionary reg me IS practic ally the head of the adminis- trative affairs of the provisional gov ernment.
 T felt that I could never stand against my own brother as representa- tive Of the Nicaragua government. and I informed President Zelaya that could no longer conduct the affairs of the legation in Washington"
 The resignation was rendered at the outbreak of the revolution on Septen- Der 20 and notice of it's acceptance has said that he was sent to Washington mainly to settle the Emery claim, which led to a breaking off of diplo- matic relations with the United States. <AE tnlS ndS been ulSpoSco OL IiS leii he was under no constraint to remain longer.
 The resignation comes as severe blow to the tottering government of President Zelaya as the diplomatic post at Washington is the most important of the Nicaraguan government. Min jster Espinosa furthermore, created an excellent impression. principally in set tling the Emery claim.
 lI leave Washington with the great est regret" he said. Mindful of the courteous treatment I have received in every quarter"
 He will go at once to New York on business of personal nature, From there he will probably return to Nicaragua. It IS taken for granted that Espinosa's return to Washington was merely for the recognition of the provisional government by the United States and that he will be appointed minister of the new regime as soon as diplomatic relations are established.
 This may be delayed by the possi- bility of a, general disturbance in Gen. tral America, following the present revolution. President Zeiaya has oe- signs upon Salvador and any move ment to this end would probably be the signal for an attack by President Cabrera of Guatemala. his bitterest enemy. sHondiras, which is dominated by Zelaya, will also make an attempt to throw off the yoke, it is believed.

THIEVES IN STAMFORD.

Some time during Tuesday night thief or thieves broke a. window on the west side of the hardware store of Constable Fred. P. Beardsley, on Main stret, and intering helped themselves to about $90 worth of cutlery, including pocket knives and razors. They emp tied the boxes containing the knives and stole all the raZors Tn stock, except three. There is no hint as to who the burglars were. The same evening men attempted to effect an entrance into the Allen house by way of the cellar hatchway, but were frightened off. Efforts were also made to enter the Sanmis emporium, and some damage was wrought,

 CURE IN CUTICURA

"It is a great pleasure for me and ! consider 1t a duty to inform you what Cuticura has done for me. About twelve years ago, contracted an erup- ton of the scalp consisting of small pimples, about the size of a pinhead, which filled after a few. days with pus and which hurt tremendously. tried everything, but in vain. Finally, I washed my head with sulphur and ap- days the pimples disappeared, only to come back again in week. This suffered for ten years and then l saw an advertisement in the paper of the wonderful cures by Cuticura. bought a cake of Cuticura Soap, 8 box of cutt- cura Ointment and bottle of Cuticura Pills and after three weeks l had used only half the Soap and Ointment and my head was as clean as ever before. After the first application it was simply surprising how 1t improved.
 My daughter used Cuticura Soap and Ointment for scales on the scalp and after having used them three. times her head was clear and the hair became as soft and fine as silk. Since then she uses nothing but Cuticura Soap for shampooing.
 "In consequence of my having used Cuticura Soap for shampooing. I. mo- ticed that my hands which almost al- ways were cracked from handling un- dressed wood, lime and stone, became white and velvety. Formerly I used glycerine, but one nights treatment with Cuticura Soap and Ointment does more for my hands than 2 weeks treat ment with glycerine. I hope all si1f- fering people will at least try the Cuti- cura Remedies. Herman Becker, Fi- neld, Wis.,, November g, I906."

WANT ADS. CENT A WORD.
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1909-02-03

the following dayssthe only proper ac-
tion was the reading of the proceed
ings and declaring the senator Only
elected. In this view they are sus-
tanned by an opinion from the senate
committee on privileges at Washing
ton.
However, there were other doings
following closely upon the heels Of
the action that had been taken. At
the afternoon session j. J Blaine of
Boscobel. state senator from this dis
trict, fled sixteen specific charges
against Senator Stephenson in which
it was claimed money had been cor
ruptly used for the influencing of
votes. These charges were unsupport-
ed by affidavits and are considered to
be of very fimsy character, as they
refer mainly to the devotion of money
to purchase advertising space in news
papers and the payment of manager
and assistants ia the work of organi-
cation throughout the state, which il
amendable to the law, can be charged
with equal force against all of the
other candidates for senator, taking
their own statements for it. The
other charges made by Senator Blaine
are denied by affidavits made by the
persons implicated.
They were made the basis, however,
for a reconsideration of the Husting
resolution, and Blaine's substitute
therefor, calling for senatorial in
vestigation was adopted by the senate.
The assembly later voted to adopt a
substitute offered by Rep. Whittet
for a similar purpose.
The vote on senator taken at the
joint session of both houses on We'd
nesday resulted in giving Stephenson
Go votes, just one less than enough to
elect. the others being scattered among
about 90 other SEXUAL or dummy caudi
dates Thursdays vote was practic
ally the same and Fridays ballot gave
Stephenson IS, there being two mem
bers absent.
Balloting was to be resumed yes
terday but telephone and telegraph
communication between Lancaster and
Madison have both been cut off by
the storm, so we have heard no re-
port of the result as we go to press.

SENATORS BY POPULAR VOTE.

We have been hearing much dur
ing the past few years about the
popular election of senators by the
primary plan. In Wisconsin Isaac
Stephenson was the choice of the
people as expressed at the primaries
but his election by the
legislature is beng opposed, not
only by those who were insisting
the hardest upon his selection for
the same Office two years ago, but
by the very men who were the most
insisteut upon the present primary
plan, adopted so that 1.-THE peepul"
might do the choosing of the candi-
date. Senators and assemblymen
who pledged themselves before cleo
ton to vote according to the result
of the primaries are deliberately do
ing the opposite because somebody
pulls the string that governs their
actions. In Illinois a similar con-
ditiOn of affairs exists and TIE pri-
mary that 50 much was claimed for
is being made farce of. Is the law
only to be observed when ''our
man" wins and repudiated when the
other fellow gets the most votes?
Great is fapdoodle in politics.

THE MADISON sOUABBLE.

The Herald went to press last week
too early to announce the result of the
vote in the legislature upon the cleo
ticn of United States Senator. Up
to that time the situation seemed to
indicate that Senator Stephenson
would be elected with very little op-
position as his own successor for a
term of six years While there has
been considerable talk about an inves-
tigation of the alleged improper use
of money by the senator to secured his
nomination in the primaries, no spe-
cifc charges were filed or evidence
presented that seemed to warrant an
investigation, and the resolution by
Senator Husting (democrat) to this
purpose was decisively voted down.
When the two houses voted upon the
election of a senator at noon Tuesday
Stephenson received 60 votes in the
assembly and 10 in the senate, MAX
ing him a total of 70, when he only
needed sc to elect. The Stephenson
supporters claim this settled it and at
the joint session OF both houses, on

seeks Bands and halls are Tired,
speeches are made aud
newspaper publicity is solicited
Some men sponge it, others pay for
it. Much of it is voluntarily given
by editors to candidates whom they
prefer. But regardless of whether
it is paid for or given free, it seems
to be necessary to have it. A
candidate without 'acquain lance
and about whom nothing is said OF
known, gets few votes All candi-
dates. from the highest office to the
lowest, go after publicity An
editor who barters his convictions
and sells his editorial support is g
venlal. unworthy Of his position
and calling. One who permits
candidates to use certain space in
his paper as advertising, so under
stood, simply aids in the publicity
which the law makes necessary,
Practically all newspapers in every
state having primary have done
the latter, and consider it not only
a legitimate action, but almost a
duty. Every candidate for United
States senator in Wisconsin used
newspaper space in this way. Some
used more than others, the same as
one merchant uses larger space
than others to advertise his bust
ness The opponents Of Senator
Stephenson call such action on his
part corruption and the bribery of
the press. The same thing done by
Cook and Hatton and McGOvern is
an honest and legitimate thing.
Such is the difference twixt tweedle-
dunn and tweedledee.

The recent suggestion Of in alliance
between America and China seems to
meet with more favor in the latter
country than it does in this The CHI,
nese leaders express themselves as de-
lighted with the idea. and the mere
suggestion has revived hope for d
thorough regeneration Of the empire.
1t is asserted freely by eminent Celes-
tails that, with the moral support OF
America, China would succeed in
abolishing her political and CONNER
cial evils, reform her financial ar
rangements and establish a good gov
eminent.
These oriental statesmen admit that
Chinas worst foe up to date has been
China herself. Her weakness, due tc
the lack of aggressiveness and love Of
peace Of her people, has retarded her
progress. Her vastness of territory
has prevented anything like good gov
eminent. The richest virgin country
now remaining in the world, China
has been the magnet of all nations,
more especially Of Japan. That coun-
try has recently been making every
possible effort to secure a dominant
influence, taking advantage Of her al
lance with Great Britain.
Some of the most progressive among
Chinese statesmen are of the opinion
that the time has come when some
thing must be done to check the adj
vance Of the Japanese on the Asiatic
mainland. An alliance with a first
class power would put the empire on
It's feet and inspire its people with
new confidence in their ability to work
a great reform. China fears Japan
and distrusts her professions Of
friendship. She is dismissing her. Jap
anese teachers and is trying to boy
colt Japanese goods. Trouble of a
serious nature is almost certain to
come. Small wonder that the proposed
alliance with America is hailed with
enthusiasm in China Thus far on
this side of the Pacific there has been
no scramble to get on the Chinese
American band wagon on the part Of
either Mr.. Taft, Mr.. Bryan, Mr.. Cha
fin, Mr. Watson, Mr.. Hisgen or Mr..
Debs

Long ago the duel was prohibited by
law, and the world was well rid of it.
In its stead, in certain cases all too
common, we have today an appeal to
the unwritten law. The newcomer
seems fully as Objectionable as its pred,
ecessor, more so in certain instances.
In the old days when the duel was q
popular method of settling affairs of
honor a jealous husband could chal-
lenge the man he believed had viO-
lated his home and seek revenge at
the pistols point. His enemy, guilty
or guiltless Of the offense charged,
then had at least a chance for his life.
The unwritten law method is far
safer for the husband who is actually
aggrieved or who merely fancies he is.
By an appeal to the unwritten law a
man may make sure that his honor
will be satisfied without even a sug-
gestion of peril to himself All that it
is necessary for him to do is to pro-
cure a pistol and, after testing it
thoroughly, find his intended victim
under circumstances precluding either
explanation or resistance. One or
more shots will then meet the require
ments of the case.
In New York recently two brothers,
one Of them an army officer, the other
a novelist who had already killed his
man, hunted up the alleged violator Of
the officers home. The brothers were
well armed. and one Of them had come
to Stay. The victim was unarmed, de-
fenseless, unsuspecting. He was MUIR
dered in sight of his wife and friends,
who were as powerless to aid him as
he was to aid himself
Now the unwritten law, aided by a
plea of insanity, will be invoked by
the murderer in order to escape the
electric chair Harry K Thaw sue
cessfully invoked it. Will Captain
Peter G. Hams, Jr., U. S. A, be equal
ly successful?

Cuba is again under its own sep
zarate government, the United States
troops having withdrawn from the
Island and Provisional Governor
Magoon having turned the reins of
power over to President Gomez.
Whether the new officials can gov
ern the island more capably than
did the Palma administration the
future must decide. Should the
United States again be compelled to
interfere it would probably lead to
the annexation of Cuba to this
country.

THE NEW SENATORS.

One third of the United States SEN
ators are elected at this winter s ses-
sions of the state legislatures. The
majority of these have already been
chosen. The recent changes in the
senate have been many and rapid, and
the present election Will introduce to
it more new faces.
Two democrats will succeed repub-
licans- of Indiana taking
the place of Hem nwaY, and Gov.
Chamberlain of Oregon, the place Of
Fulton. Shiveley is a former con-
gresham, popular and man of ex-
perience in public life. Chamberlain
goes to Washington after a phenomen-
al career in a republican state,
Charles Hughes, Jr.. democrat from
Colorado, succeeds the venerable
Henry Teller, who left the republican
party on the silver issue in 1896.
Hughes present distinction arises
from the fact that he was the largest
individual subscriber to the late
Bryan campaign. But hush, publish
it not in Esopus, tell it not in the
streets of Lincoln, lest the irreverent
rejoice and the unregenerats republi-
cans be made glad. Perish the
thought that the liberal1ty of this
Colorado plutocrat should have had
ANYTHING to do with his elevation to
the senate.
Elihu Root who succeeds Senator
Platt of New Yor stands in the front
rank of the worlds diplomats and
statesmen He will give to the
Empire sta prestige and power she
has not enjoyed since the days of
William Ii. Seward.
Gov. Cummins of Iowa succeeds
the lamented Allison who gave forty
years of life with rare devotion and
fidelity to the service of his country.
Cummins will not be long silent.
Silence is not his long suit. He is a
tariff reformer, and trust buster. In
him and Senator Dolliver. Iowa will
possess two of the most brilliant and
forceful orators in public life.
Burton of Ohio succeeds the re-
doubtable Forsaker. He will not be
as brilliant or as forceful as his
predecessor, but he made fine record
in the house and ought to add to his
Iaure1s in the senate.
Other new faces in the upper house
will be Bristow, the investigator of
postal frauds, who succeeds Long of
Kansas, Jones. for years member of
the house, who follows Ankeny of
Washington, Congressman Johnson
and Gov. Crawford of North and
South Dakota respectively, succeed
ing Hansbrough and Kittredge.
Younger men are taking the places
of the veterans, and in a few years
the personnel and possibly the entire
character of ''the greatest deliberative
body in the world will be changed.
