to The Tkxakkanian.
Uncle Sam is getting up a fine set
of postage stamps for Cuba
President McKinley is an inveter-
ate smoker—almost the equal of
Gen. Grant who died from cancer
of the tongue caused by it.
The Czar’s peace conference will
meet this week and we hope that
Aguinaldo will find it convenient to
drop around about the lobby and
take dots.
Debs the labor leader is in Texas
delivering lectures. Three hun-
dred men paid an admission to hear
him at Fort Worth. He gave a
lecture in Dallas last night.
The Dallas News has enlisted
against the trusts and this is the
first time we have found this pa-
per with the people and the legis-
lature is trying to rescue the coun
try from the money sharks.
The Cuban Army don’t like the
idea of surrendering their arms
and they are not doing it very fast.
Is it possible that we will have to
scrap with the Cubans too before
we gain what we started in .for?
When you see a couple with their
heads together talking low and
sweet yon can swear they are
forming a trust i. e. in the old
man keeping them from starving
after the trust is clinched.
The Czar should see that the del
egates to his peace convention are
all searched and disarmed before
the meeting is called to order
otherwise something serious might
happen.
What to do with Gen. Gomez and
his army is now a vexatious ques.
tion. it is proposed that a stand-
ing army of tenor fifteen thousand
soldiers be given Cuba wit h Gomez
at its head.
Not much confidence is felt in Eu
rope over the results of the peace
disarmament conference particu
larly since it has leaked out that
Krupp is about to double the ca-
pacity of his plant.
A New York dentist predicts that
the time Is near when the human
race will lose its teeth. Il that Is
the case we may look forward with
some hope to the time when there
will be such a thing as painless
dentistry.
Those New Jersey people schooled
in bond issue and a desire to make
the ballance of the world sweat for
what they get are still organizing
trust companies. Some or all ol
them will wake up with a bitle l '
taste in their mouth put there by
an out-raged public.
L. F. Farley conducts a large
mercantile business at Liberty Hill
Ga. He says: "One application ol
Chamberlains Pain Hahn relieved
me of a severe pain In my back. I
think It O. K.' For lame back
rheumatism neuralgia swellings
sprains bruises burns and scalds.
n.i other llnlnmnt can approach
Chamberlain's Pain Halm. It Is In
tended especially for those diseases
and is famous for Its cures For
sale by Smith Drug Co.
We notice that enterprising pros-
pectors are boring for oil al both
Hot Springs and Malvern. It would <
be timely to try the same in Miller |
county at Black Diamond where
we have plenty of lignite coal. If
oil or gas could be found there it k
would be a great thing for Texar- t
kaaa. «
We believe county uniformity of I
text books to be a fraud and a ’
snare. If once adopted it has to '
stand for five years. Members of •'
the legislature tell us that lobbyists
of the American Book Co. prevent- I
ed the passage of a measure for «
state uniformity and caused the ’
adoption of the misfit county uni- I
fonaity in its stead. Vote against *
county uniformity. 1

A patriotic move is on foot to (
provide a lovely home for Admiral
Dewey at Washington City by (
popular subscription. This would s
be a fitting testimonial of the es- t
teem in which the great naval com- i
mauder is held by his fellow country-
men. At the proper time if move
is set upon foot the Texarkasian '
will be pleased to solicit subscrip- 1
tions for such laudable moye.

An extra session of congress is I
now the common talk among repub- I
lican leaders. Time now set isearly
in October—two months before the ■
regular session is to convene. East-
ern plutocrats are very anxious to
get at the treasury officials and get
a report for an exclusive bank cur-
rency sn as tn do away with green-
backs altogether. Well it may be
that they will bring influences suf-
ficient to bear to force republicans
to do their bidding—but if so a day
of reckoning will come and then woe
for the moneybags who seek to rule
or ruin this nation.
An Oklahoma editor who is a
deep thinker has fixed a table of
rates for publishing things "not as
they seem" as follows: For calling
a man a successful citizen when ev-
erybody knows he is lazier than a
government mule $2.75; referring
to a deceased citizen as one who will
be sincerely mourned by the entire
community when we know he will
only be missed in poker circles
$1.08; referring to some gallivant-
ing female as an estimable lady
whom it is a pleasure to meet when
every business man in town would
rather see the devil coming hoofs
horns and all than to see her com-
ing towards them $3.18 calling an
ordinary pulpit pounder an eminent
divine 60c.; sending a rough sinner
to heaven with poetry $5.00.
The Heritage of Dewey’s Descendants.
The document which the Presi-
dent of the United States recently
framed making Commodore Dewey
an Admiral will be highly prized by
his descendants. It will be passed
down from generation to genera-
tion. It will become as famous and
as valuable as the great stomach
remedy Hostetter’s Stomach Bit-
ters which guarantees health to
all users which may be passed on
from generation to generation. As
a flesh builder a nerve tonic a blood
purifier and appetizer it is simply
wonderful. If you feel tired in the
morning if there’s a bad taste in
your mouth try Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters. Be you man or woman
be your ailment constipation indi-
gestion inactive liver or kidneys
the Bitters will cure you. All drug
gists sell it.
Summer Comfort.
I There is a constant demand for
gasoline stoves. Why? Because
the new gasoline stoves work per-
fectly keep the kithen cool and
pleasant and do away with the
bother of having wood and kindling
’ around But the chief reason is
• on account of the cheapness of
gasoline as compared with other
fuel for cooking purposes.
By actual test it has been found
that four gallons of gasoline will go
as far as 1000 feet of gas. Coin-
-1 pare the cost and you will see the
saving will justify the use of gaso-
. line this season.

Residence for Dewey
New York May 13—Auhtant
Secratiry of the Treasury Vander-
lip has consented to act as chair-
man of a national committee to pro-
vide a residence in Washington for
Admiral Dewey. This form of tes-
timonial of national gratitude was
suggested as being most suitable by
Rear Admiral Upshur retired
whose letter to the Brooklyn Eagle
in this regard was published on
May 11.
Mr. Vanderlip stated that he re-
garded the proposition as the most
sensible suggestion yet made in the
way of honoring the Admiral. The
governors of all the states will be
asked to serve on the national com
mittee and newspapers all over the
country will be requested by the
committee to solicit subscriptions
which will be sent either directly
or through the govenors of the
states in which the papers are loca-
ted to the national treasurer in
Washington.
The present month is a record-
breaker so far in the trust line. Al-
ready there have been the steel
trust with a capital of eight hun-
dred million dollars; the hide and
leather trust capital seventy mil-
lion dollars; the copper combine
with a capital of seventy-five mil-
lion dollars; the plow trust with a
view of combining all the manufac-
turers of agricultural implements;
the California fruit packers’ com-
bine capital two and one-half mil-
lion; the light and power combine
of New York capital fifteen million
dollars besides half a dozen other
trusts with fabulous ponds of water.
Already under the protection of the
gold clique in the past year and a
half aggregated capital has gone
into combines to the amount of
more than five billion dollars. This
is the prosperity the subsidized press
is crowing so lustily over while it is
manufacturing millions of tramps.

Mr. G. A. Hays has more confi-
dence in the growth of Texarkana
than perhaps any living man. We
met him yesterday and engaged him
in conversation asking him what
he thought of the future of our
city and he said one word would tell
the tale —"Excelsior” he said was
written all around about above
and below the city and it was grow-
in like the fabled Jack bean. Mr.
Hays says all of the houses which
he is agent for are rented and he
finds no trouble in finding good ten-
ents. When the reporter said that
the canvassers for the new direc-
tors for our city reported the new
work would show some 18000 inhab-
itants he said "I trust it will but
I have not set my figures that high
but believe we will grow away be
yond this number before many
years.
When shows begin to give away
fans ice water and on top of this
hand out a ticket for a free drink
of "sparkling Kolafra” to be had at
the Palace Fountain you cai
imagine how large the heart of the
Business Manager has grown. This
is what was done last night at
the Auditorium and a for-
mer city editor and reporter of this
city Mr. Lon Williams is the man-
ager of the company doing this.
There is no telling what a newspa-
per reporter would not do for the
public if they had in their power to
distribute the wealth of this coun-
try. Mr. Williams is all right.
Mr. John Peterson of Patoutville
La was very agreeably surprised
not long ago. For eighteen months
lie had been troubled with dysentery
a id had t ried three of the best doc-
tors in New Orleans besides half a
dozen or more patent medicines but
received very little relief. Chamber-
lain's Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy having been recommended
to him he gave it a trial and to his
great surprise three doses of that
remedy effected a permanent cure.
Mr. Win. McNamara a well known
merchant of the same place is well
acquainted with Mr. Peterson and
attests to ihe truth of this state-
ment. This remedy Is for sale by
Smith Drug Co.
The usual mad dog tales as to
how a bob-tailed yellow dog chased
and bit a half dozen children and
all the dogs In town has not been
handed in to the reporter (or seve-
ral days. What Is the matter with
the dogs that they all don't go
mad?
"There is going to be a plc-nic at
Wool ten Springs on F riday." The
above was given us to publisli for a
piece ol news and when we asked
what school club or organization
was giving It lie said he didn't
know he only heard that there was
to be a plc-nlc so we know not
how true It by; we tell it as It was
told to us

UUlud lllu nulol UuuuJi Everyone who has had experience with
blood diseases knows that there are no ail-
ments or troubles so obstinate and difficult to cure. Very few remedies claim
to cure such real deep-seated blood diseases as S. 8. 8. cures and none can
offer such incontrovertible evidence of merit S 8 8. is not merely a tonic—-it 1
is a cure! It goes down to the very seat of all blood diseases and gets at the
foundation of the very worstcases and routsthe poison from the system. Itdoes
not like other remedies dry up the poison and hide it from view temporarily
only to break forth again more violently than ever; 8. 8. 8 forces out every
trace of taint and rids the system of it forever.
Mrs.T. W. Lee Montgomery Ala . writes: "Some years
ago I was inoculated with poison by a nurse who infected JrftafeEwk
my babe with blood taint. I was covered with sores and T -aS
ulcers from head to foot and in my great extremity I prayed feesgk ySa
to die. Several prominent physicians treated me. but all
to no purpose. The mercury and potash which they UwA
gave me seemed to add fuel to the aw ful flame which was
devouring me. I was advised by friends who had seen
wonderful cures made by it to try Swift’s Specific. I im-
proved from the start as the medicine seemed to go direct
to the cause of the trouble and force the poison out. Twenty siAwM®...-■—>
bottles cured me completely.” Swift’s Specific—
S. S. S. FOR THE BLOOD
—is the only remedy that is guaranteed purely vegetable and contains no
mercury potash arsenic or any other mineral or chemical. It never fails to
cure Cancer Eczema Scrofula Rheumatism Contagious Blood Poison
Tetter Boils Carbuncles Sores etc.

A Steamer on the Jordan.
The progress of civilization has
at last reached the Jordan and a
steamboat churns the water in
which John baptised. The Abbot
Pachomius of the monastery of St.
John at Jericho made the first at-
tempt at steam navigation with a
diminutive launch about three years
ago. The experiment was so suc-
cessful that a small steamer was
purchased a year later and taken
to the Jordan.
This boat the Prodromus now
maintains a regular passenger ser-
vice between the bridge near Jeri-
co and the southern end of the
Dead sea and is well patronized by
the tourists and pilgrims.
The Editor Is All Right.
The Lord loves the cheerful giver.
: He’ll take care of the editor. He
' has a charter from the state to
act as door mat for the communitv.
1 He will get the paper out somehow
and stand up for the town and
whoop it up for you when you run
. for office and he about your pig-
eon-toed daughter’s tacky wedding
and blow about your big footed
. sen when he gets a four-dollar week
job and weep over your shriveled
soul when it is released from its
grasping body and smile at your
wife’s second marriage. Don’t
worry about the editor; he’ll get
along. The Lord only knows how—-
but somehow.—Hartwell Sun.

An Excellent Combination.
The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy
Syrup of Figs manufactured by the
California Fig Syrup Co. illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
medicinally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive cleansing the system effectually
dispelling colds headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub-
stance and its acting on the kidneys
liver and bowels without weakening
or irritating them make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing tig.-
are used as they are pleasant to the
taste but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants hy a method
known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid imitations please
remember the full name of the Company
