The queen regent of Spain is now
crying “peace I oh Israel peace."
A baby girl born on July 4 in Dal-
las was by its parents named
“Schleyette.” Next!
There will be a big political pow-
wow pulled off here on August 16.
It will be headed by the Hon. Dan
Windy Jones Hon. Harry Frank-
furter Auten and Hon. Watchme
Sickem Morgan.
Our fleets now centered in and
around Santiago are very swift and
can penetrate anything. Why it
was only a few days ago that one of
our steamers ran into a hornet's
nest.
It was very considerate in con-
gress to so shape the stamp tax
that corporations could shift their
part of the burden to their custom-
ers. In making laws these simple
courtesies to corporations are rare-
ly overlooked by our vigilant law-
makers.
If the town council don’t hurry up
that hog ordinance we will be coth
pelled to invest some money in flea
powder. —Lewisville Recorder.
Don’t get frisky Brother McNish
for in addition to the hog nuisance
we have the flea to contend with.
They are worse than the she-devils
that inhabits Dante’s inferno.
A great feeling of expectancy
and suspense has invaded the pub-
lic mind within the past two days
relative to the situation at Santi-
ago. The evident desire of the
Spanish to surrender on terms only
favorable to themselves the prompt
rejection of such proffer by General
Shafter; the preparation to escape
by the Spanish army and of a vig-
orous assault by the Americans all
indicate that a crisis has been
reached in the fate of Santiago.
It is asserted that the United
States makes the following demands
as conditions of peace:
1. The possession of Cuba and
Porto Rico with a port in the Ca-
naries.
2. An indemnity of £-48000000
about 1240000000.
3. The retention of the Philip
pines as a guarantee of the pay-
ment of the indemnity.
These terms are regarded as im-
possible.
It was an American officer a sur-
vivor of the Maine who uttered the
first word of sympathy to the de-
feated and downcast Admiral Cer-
vera as he stepped on board a Uni-
ted States warship a prisoner. Lieu-
tenant Commander Wainwright of
the Gloucester acted the part of
an American gentleman when he
expressed admiration for his ene-
my's daring but disastrous feat
and ended by tendering him though
a prisoner of war the use of his
cabin ahd the best that his ship af-
forded.
We would respectfully call the
attention of the chairman of the
|»lreei and alley aommittee on the
Arkansas side to a very unsightly
looking spot on Fifth street about
two blocks north of the post office
we have heard dozens of people
.complain of it and know that our
street and alley committee will fix
it up if once brought to their no-
tice. Just now it can be truthfully
described as Hog Beach as the
water remains there tor weeks
owing to its depth after every other
place on the street is dried up.
The vote on the Hawaiian annex-
ation marks the first step towards
colonial expansion. That means
armed power a huge standing army
the centralization of the functions
of government drift into imperial-
ism conflict with foreign powersj
entangling alliances increase in the
burdens of government embracing
higher taxation and the separation
of the people into distinctive classes.
This will eventually give rise to im-
potent internal disorders and mark
the decadence of the republic and
its halt for a time in the grand
march of enlightenment and civil-
ization.
The Holland Submarine Boat.
All of our readers are familiar
with the Holland submarine boat
with which it is possible to go about
completely under water. If theen-
emy have a big warship lying in a
strongly fortified harbor the boat
can be submerged and make its way
to the ship place a powerful explo-
sive under it and blow it to pieces
without appearing above water.
While this boat secretly destroys
ships of the enemy Hostetter’s
I Stomach Bitters likewise attacks
and overcomes dangerous diseases.
A few doses will give relief in any
stomach liver or blood disorder.
The Bitters not only cure the sick
but preyent the well from becoming
sick. They should be taken by ail
who need a strengthening tonic.
Start the national thirst for do-
main and imperialism is an accom-
plished result. Make the American
freeman believe he is invincible in
battle and he will seek an object
and opportunity to test his Anglo-
Saxon courage. The spirit of con-
quest is foreign to the aims of this
government. It is antagonistic to
the principle of sovereignty in the
individual. Might is not right.
Power armed will provoke hostility.
The dawning spirit of imperialism
means interminable wars and the
eventual overthrow of self-govern-
ment. Diffusion should not be en-
couraged. It is dangerous. It will
prove destructive.
I On small farms success depends
to a great extent on the small and
apparently insignificant branches
such as poultry raising bee culture
growing of medicinal herbs and
specialties in fruits and vegetables.
A German farmer sold one year
more than S6O worth of dried sage
leayes. Such things as these are
usually looked upon with contempt
by our staple farmers with expan-
sive ideas which rarely materialize.
Others who admit the utility ot the
minor industries will confidently af-
firm that they have no time for
such things; that corn cotton and
potatoes require all their time and
labor. Os course if a’man devotes
all his time to one or two crops he
has no time left for anything else
and there is nobody to blame for
this condition but himself.
If what is asserted be true it is no
wonder that the gunners of Cer-
vera’s fleet aimed wild. They were
largely intoxicated and saw double.

have an ending.

FORT LYNN FLASHES.
Another week has become a
matter of history since my last the
events of which nave left an im-
pression here and there that will be
remembered by a few and be for-
gotten by the millions as the davs
succeed each other.
The health of the community is
fairly good considering the extreme
hot days that we are now having.
Captain F. L. Tupper made a fly-
ing business trip to Texarkana last
week.
Fred. McClude spent a couple of
days visiting the State twins last
week.
Mr. W. M. Owen is now riding a
new Klondike wheel just received
through the agency of Fred Mc-
Clure. Will says it is a scorcher.
Dr. Lenard has became a per-
manent resident of Fort Lynn his
family arrived last Saturday. They
have our assurance that we are
glad to have them among us and
we trust their sojourn will be pleas-
ant as well as profitable.
The long looked for watermelon
have arrived to stay sometime which
will bring content and happiness to
all.
Mr. P A. Brown and sons Wal-
ter and Henry and daughter. Ma-
mie of Black Diamond was over
shopping last Saturday. Many-
thanks to Mr. Brown for a lot of
fine peaches. May he live long and
prosper. Miss Mamie was the
guest ot Misses Blanche and Mabel
Tupper while here.
Mrs. W E. Yarbrough of Texar-
kana spent last week here visiting
her husband.
The business outlook from all ap-
pearances is better than it has
been at any time during the past
five years.
The farmers are in high spirits
They say that all of last week was
favorable for farm work which
enabled them to clean out their
cotton which promises more than
an acreage crop. Corn is practi-
cally made and has all indications
of being over an average crop.
Our old friend Dick Yarbrough is
here rusticating and we are pleas-
ed to note that his whistle has lost
none of its old time melody.
Ye scribe was unable to be in his
place in Sunday School at Indepen-
dence owing to the fact tnat his
horse failed to make his appear-
ance on Sunday morning as is bis
usual habit.
Rev. J. B. Morrison spoke words
of good cheer to our people last
Sunday. We regret to learn that
there are four ot his family on the
sick list.
Many thanks to Mrs. Jane Saun-
ders of Sugar Hill for a nice lot of
fine apples. May she ever enjoy
peace happiness and prosperity
and never want for a true friend.
Mike Oliver moved to Allene last
week to enter the employ of the
Little River Lumber company.
Several good men can find cm
ployment here by applying soon.
Once-a-week.
THE STRATEGY BOARD.
The Board met this a. m. all
being present.
The boy was on hand and asked
to be re instated as the doctor
would not let him pass when he
was examined for the Harris Light
Guard company.
The doctor said he thought the
boy should retire while they voted
upon his application as something
might be said complimentary of
him that would make him blush.
The boy objected to this and said
he was not going to turn his back
on anyone even a friend when he
had in an application for a place
and if there were any boquets to be
thrown at him he wanted to be
there to get them and
if the reverse he wanted to face
ther-one who could bring aught
against his fair name.
The dry goods man said the boy
talked like philosopher and he would
vote too take him back.
The lumberman said the boy
suited him veey well only he was
too fresh but he thought it would
wear off in time. To which the
doctor added “yes—in a devilish
long time."
The boy was reinstated and he
was ordered to clean up the office
feed the fleas and borrow some ink
and pen points and get paper for
the desk.
The board then went into a dis-
cussion as to what they woul 1 do
with the Santiago prisoners wh in
they captured the town.
The doctor said he thought they
all should be branded have their
ears cropped off and sent back to
Spain with a card of promise in
their pocket that if caught
on any island in the Western Hemi-
sphere again they would either be
killed or banished for life on the
New Boston prairie.
This the two other members
agreed to and there being no fin -
thhr business for the day the board
I adjourned to attend a badger fight
in Swampoodle.

Stealing "Boiler'' Platez
It may not strike the publisher as
small and disreputable to secure
his plates free or almost so by us-
ing them and then selling same to
another publication. The cost of
ready-set matter is certainly cheap
enough and it is not necessary for
anybody to resort to the cheap
trick of filching his reading matter.
The press is supposed to teach mor-
ality and righteousness How
shocked would their readers be if
they were aware that their paper
is offering stolen goods. There is
no possible excuse for such a con-
temptible course on the part of
publishers either the one who steals
his plates or the “fence” who buys
them for second or third use. It is
simply justice to the houses fur-
nishing ready-set matter to cut off
the supply entirely to such as abuse
the privilege of securing a first-class
service at the low prices which pre-
vail.—Publishers’ Auxiliary.
There is more Cataarh in this sec-
tion of the country than all other
diseases put together and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local dis-
ease and prescribed local remedies
and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven ca-
taarh to be a constitutional disease
and therefore requires constitution-
al treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure
manufactured by F. J. Cheney &
Co. Toledo Ohio is the only con-
stitutional cure on the market. It
is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. It acts di-
rectly on the blooo and mucous sur-
faces of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case it fails
to cure. Send for circulars and tes-
timonials. Address.

Mr. C. B. Bush president of the
Gilmer county court tells briefly his
experience with an epidemic ol
bloody flux in his family. He writes
under date of October 8 1896 at
Auburn W. Va. “During the past
summer we had three cases of
bloody flux in our family which we
cured in less fhan one week with
Chamberlain’s Colic Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy. In some in-
stances there were twenty hemor-
rhages a day.” This remedy never
fails to cure the worst case of bloody
flux and all bowel complaints and
every family should keep it on hand.
