But that tired feeling
Means danger. It
Indicates impoverished

This condition may
Lead to serious illness.
It should be promptly
Overcome by taking

Energizes and vitalizes
The whole system.

Maj. Sayers is coming to Galveston to
make a speech, and Galveston will make
him welcome. The Tribune will wager
any reasonable amount that Galveston
county will give him proportionately the
biggest vote of any county in Texas.
England’s readiness for war has prob-
ably won a victory against France with-
out striking a blow. If the United States
had been prepared in like manner Spain
would never have provoked the slaughter
that followed her rashness.
ERNEST L. FULTON
Is a candidate for State and County
Tax Collector, and-respectfully requests
your vote and support.
If Spain doesn’t soon pay her soldiers
in Cuba, there is some prospect that none
will be left to evacuate when the time
comes for the formality. They are mak-
ing all sorts of rebellious threats and
may end the matter by simply quitting.
Perhaps that is what Spain is inviting.

right for railways to combine and fix rates

New York Republicans are pitching the
state campaign upon purely national is-

Democratic state ticket will be an ex-

may recoil in a very uncomfortable way

Already labor problems in the new colo-
iiies are rising up to vex the souls of the
expansionists. In Hawaii there is a law
governing contract laborers—the imported I
Japanese and Chinese workmen on the
sugar plantations—under which men are I
hired for a given term and if they desert
they are arrested and punished. A Hono-
lulu lawyer, formerly a resident of Chi- I
cago, writes to the Journal, explaining the |
operation of the law and says: “Any fine
morning you can go to the police station I
and on the bulletin boards see the photo- j
graphs of runaway contract laborers with |
$5 reward for the arrest,” etc.
The correspondent raises the point that |
this law is contrary to the constitution of
the United States and must be annulled
as soon as it is tested in the courts of
this nation. The contention is correct. I
There can be np semblance of slavery
under the Stars and Stripes. But reliev- j
ing the territory of this stigma will open 1
up a new and more difficult problem. The
provision of the constitution which is in-
voked to free the contract laborers will j
raise them to citizenship if they choose 1
to become such, and we shall then have |
some 30,000 or 40,000 Japanese, Chinese j
and Portugese to overbalance the 10,000 or j
so Americans and half white Hawaiians I
who compose the other part of the popu-
lation. These people are of the lowest j
Order of labor and must fix the status of
industry in the territory. It will be awk- |
ward to exclude them from entrance into 1
any other part of United States terri- 1
tory, but whether here or there th© low 1
standard of wages will affect all indus- I
tries common to Hawaii and any sec- | is for life,
tion of the country. The 30,000 or 40,000
in Hawaii might be managed somehow,
but the 8,000,000 in the Philippines will be
a horde that no statesmanship can com-
bat.
It will make no difference whether they
are admitted to the United States proper I
or retained in the colonies. If they engage j
in agriculture their products must com- |
pete with ours. If they are engaged in
manufacturing, their output must sell in 1
the same markets. They must enjoy the1 .
„ . . - ! of the Maine explosion, was married after
same festering care of the government. - —
The sugar or cotton they grow or manu- j
facture will range below our prices, pre- 1
cisely by the difference in wages here and |
there. No tariff can protect us from our j
own people.
In Illinois today importing labor from

unlawful position that he will exclude. I
negrqes at the mouth of the Gatling gun.
This is an act of assumption that can
not be tolerated between states any more 1 made that the Postal telegraph

than between counties, and it is hard to
see how it is to be set up between terri-
tories.
No expansionist has yet ventured to say
what will be the effect of the policy on
labor. Not even protectionist Republi-
cans, who are so eloquent of the work-
ingman’s welfare under our tariff system, I
have explained his status in the new colo-
nial scheme. If Tanner is right in mak-
ing state lines barbed wire fences, then
we “may exclude the Filipinos. But if
Tanner is right on this proposition, then
the old doctrine of nullification is revital-
ized and made more potent than S?mth
Carolina ever dreamed. If Tanner is
wrong, who will say that a stretch of
water between territories of the United
States is more of a barrier than imag-
inary lines or intervening strips of other ,
states?
Beside this momentous problem of labor
under expansion our other economic dif-
ferences are fading into insignificance, I
and if people now forget the tariff and the
financial issues in their supreme concern
for the preservation of American labor, 1
the Republican administration, which has
refused to declare its policy in the Philip-
pines, must accept the responsibilty.
'The New Orleans Picayune is hurting.
It says): “Texas in trade will not show a
manly front while she has a Gal-vest-on.”
Plainly’ the quarantine should not be
raised. 'There is something wrong with
an atmosphere that will breed such a pun.
In another place the Picayune remarks:
Rule railroads out of Galveston and
they will soon show that there is no good
reason for the existence of Galveston as1 a
business place. Texans do not go there to |
■enjoy the beach, to buy goods oj spend (
money. There are other places.
This gives the key to the diagnosis. The
Southern Pacific is trying to get out of
New Orleans and get into Galveston.

Much Damage Wrought in the Vicinity of
the Windy City.
Chicago, Ill., Oct. 27.—Chicago’s lake
front is battered in spots from the Indiana
state line to Evanston and beyond as the
result of the storm which found a center
here during the last two days'. While no
lives have been reported lost, the severity
of the blow—48 miles an hour at its worst—
was the greatest since the gale of 1894,
when the shore was- strewn with wrecks
and when many sailors perished.
The total damage is estimated at $81,500.
The objects that suffered most was the
lake shore promenades and walks., whose
huge rocks anti flags were battered down
and tossed about like chips by the waves.
The Lincoln park board has suffered most
in this respect. It will require $35,000 to re-
place its wrecked ways.
An indication of the fury of the storm
is shown by the fact that the official clock
in the hydrograph!© office in the Masonic
temple was stopped by the vibration of
the big building. The hands pointed to
6.51 when the pendulum ceased to swing.
Lieut. Wilson slays all clocks in the upper
floors of high office buildings were sim-
ilarly affected.

Phone 703. HANNA & LEONARD.
There’s going to be a row over the print-
ing of the book containing the names of
the citizens who have registered for the
coming election. Clarke & Courts have
the last batch of “copy” for the book in
hand and are going ahead with the work,
but Judge Morgan M. Mann says he didn’t
order it and he knew nothing about Clarke
& Courts, having the job in hand until he
was questioned about it this morning.
A few days ago A. A. Finck called the
attention of The Tribune to the fact that
Clarke & Courts had put in a bid of $7.50
for printing 20,000 official ballots.
“That will not pay for the papei
which the ballots will be printed,” aam
Mr. Finck. “But what’s the difference?
The commissioners have given the job of
printing the registration book to Clarke &
Courts and they’ll make enough out of
that to pay for all the ballots and more,
too. The commissioners''make a splurge
about advertising and getting bids on a
job of $7.50, but this printing of the regis-
tration book—which costs $500 or $600—is
given without any competition. Two
years ago I underbid Clarke & Courts more
than $100 for this work, but the commis-
sioners gave it to Clarke & Courts de-
spite the fact that I put in a formal pro-
test.”
When a Tribune reporter visited Clarke
& Courts’ this morning the last batch of
names had just been received from Regis-
trar Fisher.
Mr. Bourke, upon hearing of the “kick,”
took 'the reporter to Mr. Courts, who
laughed good naturedly.
“Why,” said he, “I think we’ve already
been paid for that registration. No other
concern can print the registration list.
No other concern here has the facilities.
The cost of the work was something be-
tween $300 and $400, I believe. I can not
recollect how much it was in the bill.”
The reporter wanted to learn who or-
dered the publishing of the book; at least,
who gave the orders' to Messrs. Clarke &
Courts to print it.
The answer was not definite, but it was
to the effect that the copy was received
from Registrar Fisher and that it was
understood Clarke & Courts were to print
it.
County Judge Morgan M. Mann looked
up the law on the subject. Here it is:
'“Art. 1777 R. .8. 'The commissioners-’ court
shall furnish and supply the registrar with
all necessary books, stationery and blank
certificates of registration and an office in
which to perform all the necessary work
of registration during the time he is neces-
sarily engaged in the registration of voters
as herein provided, but in all city elec-
tions the city council shall furnish and
supply them.”
Judge Mann said he had no knowledge
that the book was being printed. He did
not order it published, he said, and he did
not know who was responsible for send-
ing the “copy” to Clarke & Courts.
An examination of the bills for October
showed that Mr. Courts) is in error in
thinking his concern has been paid for the
book. Clarke & Courts' had a bill of $656.80
against the county for supplies furnished
during the month of September, but this
did not include the registration book.
Just how much the county paid two
years ago for the printing of this book
not known, but itfwas more than $500.

THE BEST LUNCH IN GALVESTON at
Girardin House Bar, 15c, with drinks
and dessert, dally. FRANCOIS GIOZZA
& H. J. AUDIE. Proprietors.
There was a strong array of legal talent
present at the rooms of the United States
circuit and district courts this morning
when the fate of the Galveston, La Porte
and Houston railway came up for final
adjudication and during the two hours
the matter was before the court some
brilliant forensic efforts were brought
forth in support of or against the latest
purchaser’s request.
The case was brought up promptly at 10
o’clock, and before any motion could be
made or protest read, Judge Bryant con-
firmed the recent sale of the road to Mr.
L. J. Smith. Judge Foster, who, with
Mr. Forster Rose, was present in the in-
terests of Mr. Smith, then read the motion
of the purchaser to the court, asking that
the sale be confirmed and that he be given
immediate control of the road, it in the
meanwhile being under the charge of the
court, until the balance of the purchase
money was paid.
Attorney Beh Campbell of Houston read
a protest on the part of Houston creditors
against certain portions Mr. Smith’s
request. Judge Terry then arose and
stated that he and Mr. F. C. Dillard of
Sherman represented A. J. Tullock and
others, and protested againsst the turn-
ing over of the road to Mr. Smith without
the immediate payment of what remained
of the purchase money, but would con-
sent if the property would be kept within
the control of the court for a limited time,
say three or four months.
Maj. M. F. Mott, representing the Conti-
nental trust company of New York, en-
tered the same protest.
Col. Walter Gresham, representing the
St. Charles car company, the Baldwin
locomotive works and the Galveston and
Western railroad, also entered a protest.
Attorney W. S. -Hunt of Houston, repre-
senting several smaller creditors, joined in
the prayer of Mr. Smith to turn the prop-
erty over to him.
Incidentally, at the close of Mr. Hunt’s
talk, Judge Bryant announced that, as a
business proposition, he could not see how
the road could be operated in the future
in a worse manner than it is at present
and has been for some time past. That
position v, as combatted by Mr. Dillard in
a lengthy argument. He stated that Mr.
Smith- had come before the court in the
position of an. applicant for further favors;
that at any number of different times he
had made requests in regard to the dis-
position of the property, all of which had
been acceded to, and that he was violat-
ing every decree of the terms of sale ini
asking for the.<privilege of running the
road without paying down the purchase
money, as ordered; Attorneys Campbell,
Terry and Gresham followed in the same
line.
Judge FosteryJdss; Smith’s attorney, then
replied in an argument in favor of his
client, setting forth the points that should
be considered regarding the request they
had made. e1))
Judge Bryant did not give an immediate
reply to the prayer and has the case under
advisement. rnoiilii (
“SEND GOLD BRICK BY EXPRESS.”
Chief Clerk W. C. Easton of the Tre-
mont hotel left; a few days ago to visit
the Omaha exposition. With him he
carried, of cOiftTse .as a side issue, quite
an amount of-loose change, totalling a
very respectable sum. He is now on his
way back home, Having left Omaha this
morning, but therl is a stftry. connected
with his early return.
Yesterday morning Proprietor George
Korst of the Trempnt received from East-
on a telegram asking him if he would
honor a draft for $20. -George studied over
it for a while, and here is the telegram he
sent in answer, addressed to Mr. Easton:
“Of course will honor draft, but please
send gold brick home by express.”
All of which goes to show that It is
thought that “Billy” must have “run
against it” along the .Midway, and will
have to explain to his friends when he
gets back.
The oil wells of Senator Roger Q. Mills
are said to net him about $100 a day.
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—When I wrote to you last June,
I was not able to do anything. I suffered, with back-
ache, headache, bearing-down pains, pains in my lower
limbs, and ached all through my body. Menstruations
were very painful. I was almost a skeleton.
lowed your advice and now am well and fleshy, and able
to do all my own housework. I took medicine from a
v physieiamfor over a year, and it did not do me a particle
of good. I would advise all suffering women to write
to Mrs. Pinkham. She will answer all letters promptly,
and tell them how to cure those aches and pains so com-
mon to women.—Mrs. C. L.Winn, Marquez, Texas.
I think it is my duty to write and let you know what
your medicine has done for me. For two years I suffered
with female weakness, beai’ing-down pains, headache,
backache, and too frequent occurrence of the menses.
I was always complaining. My husband urged me to
try your Vegetable Compound, and I finally did. I have
’ taken three bottles and it has made me feel like a dif-
\ ferent woman. I advise every woman that suffers to
1 take your medicine and be cured.—Mrs. Gareett
I Lichty, 612 S. Prince St., Lancaster, Pa. ;
J I had suffered for over two years with backache,
/ headache, dizziness, nervousness, falling and ulceration
i of the womb, leucorrhoea, and about every ill a woman
i could have. I had tried doctors, but with no success,
and it seemed as though death was the only relief
for me. After using five bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham’s
Vegetable Compound, and four packages of Sanative
Wash, I am well. Have had no more pain, womb
trouble, backache or headache.—Mrs. Claudia
Halpin, Cream Ridge, N. J..
Before taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound I was afflicted with female complaints
so that I could hardly walk. ‘My back ached terri-
bly, in fact, 1 ached all over. Was not able to raise myself up some of the
time. I had no appetite and was so nervous that I could hardly sleep. I have
taken but two bottles of your Compound and feel like another person, can now
eat and sleep to perfection, in fact, am perfectly well.—Mrs. Sue McCullough,
Adlai, W. Va.
