NATIONAL PRIDE
CHIEF DIFFICULTY

The chief difficulties of the present situ-
alton, it is recognized by administration
officials, are the questions of pride and
national honor involved Protestations
by Senior Gamboa that to yield to the
contentious of the United States would
be surrender of sovereignty and would
permit foreign government to veto the
candidacy of individuals in Mexican cleo
tions. hereafter, have been met by the
statement of officials here the United
States has not the slightest desire to in
terfere with the sovereign rights of Mex
leo.
There was confidence in official circles
that by the exchange of other communica-
lions. both Mexico and the United States
would further clarity their positions on
this point, imputations of dictation would
be removed, and any changes brought
about I'm Mexico at any rate would result
from the voluntary acts of the Mexican
administration.
So far as the Washington government
Is concerned. II has been made plain
that 1t hopes merely that n peaceful set
tiement of the difficulties may be reached
regardless of how the Mexican authori-
ties are influenced to compose the situa-
ton. Evidence of this was given today
through frequent cautions by administra-
tion officials to the press to avoid injur-
ing the <Sensiblities of the Mexican peo-
pie by references to "concessitns -
'Triumphs'' or defeats" In this connec-
tion pointed reference was made to the re-
marx of Senior Gamboa In his latest
note.
We are really in the way OF arriving
AZ an arrangement equally dignified for
both Sides

to do great injury. After the expectora-
tion has been properly removed the cough
will stop itself. That is the only proper
way to stop a cough.
Occasionally a cough depends upon an
irritable condition of the larynx or bron-
chial tubes. in which there is little or no
expectoraton.
The problem of stopping such cough
is a slightly different one. Even in those
cases Peruna ought to be taken, but some
times it is necessary that local treatment
be added.
But in any case Peruna is needed. You
DO not have to stop to write me. Get
Peruna at once and commence taking it,
You can get rid of that cough sooner I
believe than in any other way.

time while you are taking Peruna you are
at perfect liberty to write me. Your let

be very trying to get so excited in a
hot climate.
The high sand banks of the early
part Of the day soon dropped lower to
afford us a wider view. In it's broad
general features the country was,
quite simply, the desert of Arizona
over again.
We reached the end of the canal
about three o'clock of the afternoon,
and dropped anchor far off low-lying
shores. Our binoculars showed us
white houses in apparently single rank
along a far-reaching, narrow sand-pit,
with sparse trees and a railway line.

were not particularly sorry that we

DICE AND CARDS HIT
Act Prohibits Playing Of Bridge for
Prizes and Shaking for Cigars
Senate Puts in an Hour on
Dance Bill.

Pierre.-If the senate adopts house
bill Al as it was passed by the house
bridge whist for prizes and shaking
for the cigars" will be in the criminal
class, as the bill prohibits any game
of cards, dice or other gambling de-
vices for money or property A strong
attempt was made to cut out the prop
erty provision of the bill. but it was
voted down, and the bill went through
as it was introduced.
The house adopted the bill to grant
greater privileges TO legislative men,
bers in naming scholarships to vari-
Gus state institutions; sent the game
bill back to the committee for recon
sideration, and the negotiable lnstru-
ment bill back for day to see how IL
looks with lot Of amendments smear
ing off many of it's principal features.
They passed the bill which prohibits
operation of motor vehicles by any
one under the influence Of liquor
The senate put in an hour OF its
time on the house dance bill, and after
many amendments, one to apply it on
lv to house members, it was sent back
for house concurrence.
There was a tangle in the senate
over the senate bill to require county
bonds to be issued for twenty-year pc
riods. resulting in its going over, and
another on the senate bill to prohibit
overdrafts, which, after ii had been
amended in number of particulars,
was killed on motion of the introducer.
The Rapid City people find that
they failed in one particular in an or
dinance providing for waterworks ex-
tensions, and they are here with a
bill for this improvement TO allow the
contractor to get his pay for work
done.
The insurance and liquor interests
are now especially active. A number
of bills in which they are interested
are reaching the stage where some
thing definite must develop soon.
The insurance men are fighting the
publication bill. with the newspaper
men as active in opposition.

After breakfast, however, | found
that the sand bank had various attrac-
tiOns all its own. says Stewart r.
White in Harper's Magazine. Three
camels laden with stone and in con-
voy of white-clad figures shufiled
down the slope at picturesque angle.

seem to be injuring themselves by
overeXertion. Naked small boys raced
us for short distance. The banks
glided by very slowly and very evenly,
the wash sucked after us like water
in a slough after duckbOat, and the
sky above the yellow sand looked ex-
tremely blue.
At short and regular intervals, half
way up the miniature sandhills, heavy
piles of snubbing posts had been plant
ed For these we at first could guess
no reason. Soon, however we had TO
pass another ship; and then we saw
that one of us must tie up to avoid be-
ing drawn irresistibly by suction in
10 collision with the other. The craft
sidled by separated by only few feet /;
so that we could look across to each

AS the day grew this interest grew
likewise. Dredgers in the canal, rusty
tramps flying unfamiliar flags of
strange, tiny countries; big freighters,
often with Greek or Turkish charac-
ters on their sterns small, dirty
steamers of suspicious business; pas
senger ships like our own, returning
from the trOpic, with whiteclad, Ian
guild figures reclining in canvas chairs
gunbOats of this or that nation, bound
on mysterious affairs; once a "P. and

not want to get under the general pro-
visions OF the act.
Fraternal Orders.
Henry Neil of the A. O. L. W.. Is
here to look into the provisions of
senate bill PIP. the one which proposes
to regulate fraternal organizations in

bill and has been adopted in a number
of states, its main purpose being to
make fraternal societies more solid.
not be affected if the growth by new
memberships should not continue to a
point where the organization is not
continually increasing in numbers.
A Saloon Bill.
The bill to place saloon licenses up
to $4,000 a year, and limiting saloons
to one in each thousand of population,
is the one which is agitating not only
the saloon interests at the present
time. but also keeping the anti-saloOn
people busy They look upon this as
practical elimination of the saloon in
many places of the state in which
the saloon men agree with them, and
they are having some warm confer
ences between the different leaders
before the temperance committees OF
the two houses. Rev Holsaple leading
for the antisaloon people and f. r.
DIETRICH for the liquor interests. The
bill is not yet out of committee and
n will be the subject Of yet warmer
discussion if it gets out into the
open.
There Was No Fight.
The expected fight on the floor or
the house on house bill 2S2, which
eliminates the publication of insur-
ance statements did not develop. as
the bill went over to Friday on motion
of Leedom, without any discussion.
This promises to be warm fight
when it finally gets out on the floor
of the house unless there is a decided
change of sentiment before that time
occurs.
Putting the Lid On.
Bridge whist clubs for prizes, shak-
ing dice for cigars, and playing pitch
for the cigars or chips is to be a
thing of the past in this state if the
senate accepts house bill Al as ii pass
ed the house Wednesday. This bill
prohibits playing poker or any other
game with cards, or gambling with
dice or any other device whatever in
this state with a penalty Of fine or
jail sentence if any money or proper
ty" is played for. Several attempts
were made to cut out property from
the bill. and one member wanted to
know if poker chips were to be class
ed as property, before the final vote,
but no change could be secured. and
the bill went through just as intro
duced and it is up to the senate.
The Dance Bill.
The senate passed the house bunny
hug" dance bill but not until they had
placed a lot Of amendments in the
measure, one of which exempted ST
| Vitus dance and the dances of Indians
over hundred years Of age, and an
| other to make it apply only to house
members. with numerous other provi
sions, and the house is asked to con
