Inthe Kansas City platform the republicans of Missouri have tried to frame an expression on trusts and imperialism which shall not offend public sentiment through the state. But the planks on these subjects are purely formal, declamatory and per- functory. This is made clear by the unqualified and comprehensive —in- dorsement of the MeKinley adminis- tration and all its policies and acts. Such an endorsement gives the lie to anti-trust and anti-imperialist pro- testations. Not only has the admin- istration done nothing against the trusts, but it has actually served them and served them well. And its Asiatic policy of conquest and ad- venture is one of imperialism, pure and simple. The people of Missouri will not fail to note the variance be- tween empty phrases and the actual facts.—Post-Dispateh. case Iso Dewey's Democracy. “A hundred or more correspon- | dents have asked us by mail and by wire whether in case W.

In addition to this, he re- ceives $7,500 a year from the Cuban revenues, making $15,000. He also receives $2,000 a year in allowances for quarters, rations, horses, forage, ete., making the position of governor general of Cu worth, at least, $17,- 000 a year. Those disclosures with many others, made Saturday morn- ing regarding the yment of money from the Cuban revenues to army of- ficers already drawing large salaries from the United States, has created a profound sensation in the east. Secretary of war Root has admitted that the above statement is true. Three hours of interesting debate were devoted to it in the senate, and at its close that body, without a dis- nounced himself a ‘Democrat.’ By this we assume that he means a democrat of the type of Jefferson—a democrat of the people forthe people such as Bryan is. “Being such a Democrat, how could he fail to support Bryan if nominated? Dewey isagainst imper- ialism. His heart and mind are wrapped up in the naval honor and political integrity of his country. Therefore, when he says ‘I am a dem- ocrat.”” he means all that any demo- crat could mean. He means that senting voice, passed a resolution igned to probe the scandal to the bottom.

Keene, the Czar of Wall street, the unchal- lenged king of speculation. Mr. Keene was for McKinley in 1896; gave $40,000, toward his cam- paign.

Washington, May 21.—Informa- ‘tion has reached here that Major | Rathbone of Hamilton, Ohio, direct- or of posts in Cuba, is openly boast- ing that the McKinley administration does not dare remove him from office. He declares that if be is deposed he will disclose all the corruption by which Mark Hanna secured his elec- tion to the United States senate. Boasts That OME duties to many women seem more important than Hee No matter how ill they feel, they drag themselves through the daily tasks and pile up trouble. This is heroic but a penalty has to be paid. A woman in New Matamoras, Ohio, Mrs. IsaBELL BRADFIELD, tells in the following letter how she fought with disease of the feminine organs until finally forced to take to her bed. She Says: ———ae ‘Dear Mrs. PINKHAM—I feel it my duty to write to vou to > tell you that I have taken Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound and think there is no medicine in the world like it.

It was finally decided that the ques- | tions »Ived were of such far-reach- | ing racter. touching our authority in Cuba, that it would be desirableto secure co-operation of the senate and the executive branch of the govern- ment, and a sub-committee was ap- nted consisting of Representatives Jenkins of Wiseon- Maine, DeArmond on of Alaba he other branches and whole next Excursion Rates.
