Comrade S< H* BurlSs
ct Lewiston 111. had some thrillin'! cx-
reriences but none seemed more dun.terou?
ban those of his late heart trouble. He says'
44 1 had severe palpitation of the heart
for years. My physicians said I
was liable to drop dead any moment.
Pulsation at times would be 150 a min-
ute and I could scarcely breathe. I
grew worse under doctor’s care and
began taking Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure.
It gave me prompt relief and today I
am in good health.”

The Inter-State Commerce Com-
mission have heard all hands on the
subject of safety appliance on rail-
roads and will give their opinions
later on.
It will soon be time for Alphabet

Farmers in the south are in bet-

The city of Greenville Texas is
sueing the M. K. & T. Ry. Co. for
1500 damages for bringing a negro
with small pox there trora its hos-
pital i« St. Louis and spreading dis-
ease. If it wins the suit Texar-
kana should sue the Pullman Pal-
ace Car Company for doing the
same thing here some time since.
At the hearing of the hundred or
more railroads before the Inter-
State Commerce Commission the
other day asking for more time in
which to put in safety appliances
while no open decision was given it
is understood that six months more
time will be granted. When self-
couplers and air brakes ate on ah
railroad trains loss of life to train-
men should be minimized.
Shreveport had another killing
the other day-—James McCoy shot
and killed a negro—self defense
claimed. This makes about three
or four killings there in the past
few months. What is the matter?
\ Is the old town growing tougher as
she gets older ? A few years ago
her papers were severely criticising
Texarkana about so many killings
here—now the tables are turned.
Just because a man has obtained
prominence In bis neighborhood it
does not give him license to slop
over and overide the law. These are
the kind of men who should try and
put down crime and misdemeanors
and petty offenses and not lead
in committing them. There should
be no mercy shown them becauseol
atty prominence obtained If th-
good citizen* living in the neighbor-
hood where these prominent (?) men
live would do their duty they
would report on them and help up-
hold the law. Don’t be afraid to do
right nothing will assail you if you
are armed with a shield of justice.

About the meanest piece of busi-
ness yet ordered by the post-master
general is the order to discharge
all married women from the postal
service! The postmaster general
does not take into consideration
that trifling men sometimes get
married and that their wife must
care for them and the children and
they are as much entitled to the
government loaves and fishes as any
oue. The man who issued the order
excluding married ladies from post-
office positions should be shot with
a load of bean*.
Following is a copy of the Samoan
agreement entered into between
Germany Great Britain and the
United States: “That Germany
renounces in future to the United
States all rights and claims on the
Island of Tutuilla and all other is-
lands east of longitude 171 degrees
west of Greenwich. Great Britain
does the same. Reciprocally the
United States renounces in future
to Germany all claims over the Is-
lands of Upolu and Savaii and all
others west of longitude 171 de
grees west of Greenwich. That the
three signatory powers shalll con-
tinue to enjoy for commercial pur-
poses all privileges enjoyed by the
soverign power in all ports open to
them.”
We are still patiently waiting for
our dear friend Charles Gordon
Newman of the Pine Bluff Com-
mercial to dispel the “dense ignor-
ance” that envelopes the Gazette
Ozark Democrat and Texarkanian
by furnishing us that list of pardons
and the cause for same which the
law requires the governor to make
to each legislature. Come Brother
Newman be kind to your ignorant
brethren. They need light on this
subject and a whole lot of people
among the lawabiding citizens would
also like light on this subject.
The last heard of Aguinaldo he

The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there Is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure
in ail its stages and that is catarrh. Hall’s
Catarrh Cure is the only posititve cure
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease requires a
constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh
Cnre’is taken internally acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system then bydestroying the foundation
of the disease and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work.

The candy factory meeting did
not materialize last night as was
expected. Well if at first you do
not succeeded try try again. If
you can't get the capitalist out at
these meetings why just take a
walk around and look ’em up and
make 'em subscribe. This is the
oily true way to get at a Texar-
kana capitalist. The truth of the
matter is that when a Texarkana
man gets home by the ire he feels
so comfortable and easy that be is
not going to chase himself out of
the house just to invest in a factory
that promises less than one bun
dred cents on the dollar. He must
be looked up coddleflattered made
to believe if he is not taken in the
enterprise would fall through even
if the Goulds had hold of it and
when -you get him away up in the
pictures and you see him spread
out his wings to soar then pull out
your stock b«ok and ask him how
much he will take.

A correspondent in Havana says
that only a leader is needed to start
an uprising in Cuba. The negroes
and uneducated white men there
are drilling and preparing for a
strong protest toAmencan control.
Americans are now as enthusi-
astically heated iu Cuba as the
Spaniards ever were We pretended
to rescue the Cubans from Spanish
rule for the sake of humanity and
the Cubans hate and distrust us ak
much as they ever did the Spanish.
The moral is that as a general rule
people should attend ts their own
business.

Hc.Knowt Whereof He Writes.
An editor prints his paper to give
his patrons the news of the day and
for the money there is in it. He is
presumed to know of what he writes
and he generally does. When he
writes as he does in the Leader Cou-
rier Osceola Mills Pa. without fee
or hope of reward that “Chamber-
lain’s Cough Remedy acts magically
and we have found none better in

ho'nest expression worthy of ere
dence. For sale by Smith Drug Co.

An Abuse of the Psrdonisj Power’
Today th<- World catalogues 349
pardons granted to criminals and
128 commutations of sentence by
McKinley durine the two years and
five months of his Administration.
The list does not include the case
of Commissary-General Eagan who
after a fair trial by court martial
was sentenced to disgraceful dis-
missal front the arnsy and whose
sentence the President changed |in-
to the reward of six years furlough
upon full pay.
But it does include the pardon of
sixteen bank-wreckers aud a com-
mutation of sentence in the cases
of eight other men who as bank of-
ficers betrayed their trusts.
It includes pardon in the cases of
sixty-one and the commutation of
twenty-nine sentences imposed up-
on postmasters for embezzlement
and kindred crimes.
It includes the pardon of thirty
three counterfeiters and the light-
ening of sentences upoa fourteen
others.
Without going further into the
catalogue it is fair to ask whv the
President has come to the rescue
of these infamous scoundrels by the
use of his pardoning power. He
has granted respite >o bank wreck-
ers and the betrayers ol trusts thm-
encouraging other bank officers to
like offense. Why has he impaired
the integrity of the postal service
by pardoning embezzling postmas-
ters for crimes that are unpardon-
able? What possible claim toclem-
ency can any counterfeiter have?
The pardoning power is conferred
upon the executive for one purpose
and one only. It is not intended
for the relief of criminals with or
without a “pull." It is inteaded
as proceedings in equity are to cor
rect mistakes and cure injustices of
the law. It was never meant in any
constitution that the executive
should pardon criminals. It was
meant only that as a last resort his
power of pardon should rescue men
unjustly convicted of crime.
In this view of the law and the
facts President McKinley's whole-
sale jail delivery is a gross abuse of
the pardoning power.—New York
