A great many people who have been cured of dyspepsia and other diseases of the stom- ach and its allied organs of digestion and nutrition by the use of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery say: *Wetried many medicines with only temporary benefit. It was not until we began the use of ‘Golden Medical Discovery’ that we found a complete and lasting cure.” It is undoubtedly true that Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery holds the rec- ord for the perfect and permanent cure of indigestion and other diseases of the stomach and associated orgeus of diges- tion 2nd nutrition. It is not a palliative. It cures the cause of disease and builds up the body with solid healthy flesh, not fiabby fat. . “Two years ago I stomach and bowel trouble. Everything I ste would put me in distress.

Eventual Corfirmation Gen- erally Conceded by Opponents. WASHINGTON, June 13.—The Senate; devoted the executive session to-day to 2 considerztion of the nomination of Wil- liam Crozier to be chief of the bureau of | ordnance. The principal speecnes were | made by Senators Cockrell and FProctor, the former favoring the confirmation and | the latter opposing that. course. Proctor referred at length to the ef- fect of the law of Feoruary 2, 01, which it is declared makes an exception in cases like that of Crozier. Section 26 of that law provides that no person shall be ap- pointed chief of the staff corps who 18 below ~ the rank of lieutenant celonel, but this provision -is accompanied by, an amendment providing for exceptivns. The | friends of Crozier contend that these ex- ceptions open a way for his appointment, hut Senator Proetor argued that such was not the case and declared that under the | law he clearly was ineligible. | Proctor also referred to the fact that ozier is the patentce of the Buffington- ozier gun carriage, and he and others o stood with him asserted that no offic- er possessing such an interest sbould be put at the head of a bureau which con- trols the use of such patenis. He also asserted that it unusual to go SO | low as the aptain in selecting | the hes , and said that this proceeding since the Civil War. Senator Cockrell said the appointment had been made because of the exceptionai fitness of Crozier for the position. and that he was in every way personally and professionally worthy of the compliment which the appointment implied. He called | attention to Crozier's record as an ord- nance officer and said there were many precedents for the promotion of officers from low rank to high, instancing the | cases of General Wood and General Bell Proctor called attention to that Generals Wood and Beil no precedent fact were line officers and not corps officers, which, he said, made much differcnce.

VIEW OF DEMOCRATS. | Among the Democrats the impression | | prevails that the message will widen _the breach between the Republican President | and his party instead of bringing the two | fections together. ! _*“It is not our funeral,” said . Senator Blackburn. “We are not called upon to mix up in any family row going on in the Republican part; The more fre- | | quently the President_ lectures his party | the more incensed they become, so it i% not our place to interfere. There :was | ncthing new or startling in the mesgage, | but it was simply a case of repeating a | tormer message on the same subject. | “The fact is,” continued the Senator, | ‘““there are about forty Republican Sena- | tors who consider themselves better poli- | ticians and better statésmen than the President, and they are not inclined to | follow his advice on political matters Each of these forty thinks he wou mgzke a better President than Roosevelt.” Representatives Long, Payne, Dalzell | and other reciprocity advocates in tae House think the Senate will settle the measure of reciprocity. In other words, :f the forty-five Republican Senators, or for- ty-four and Senator McLaurin of South Carolina, unite and pass® the bill this measure will be accepted by the House. | PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE. The President’s message is as follows: The Senate and the House: I deem it im- ortant before the adjournment of the present sion of Congress to call attention to the fol- lowing expressions in the message which in | the discharge of the duty imposed upon me by | Constitution 1 sent to Congress the first of December last : “Elsewhere 1 have discussed the question of | reciprocity. In the case of Cuba. however, | there are welighty reasons of morality apd of national interest wWhy the policy should be held | |to have a peculiar application, and I most | | earnestly ask your attention t6 the wisdom, | indeed, 'to the ‘vital need, of providing for a | substantial reduction in the tariff duties on | Cuban imports into the United States. Cuba | has in her constitution affirmed what we de- | sirea, that she should stand, in international matters, in closer and more friendly relations with us than with any other power: and we | are bound by every consideration of honor and | | expediency to pass commercial measures in the | | interest of her well-being. | recommendation was merely giving prac- tical effect to President McKinley's worde, | when in his message of December 5, 1808, and December 5, , he wrote: It is impor- | tant that our relations with this people (of | Cuba) shall be of the most friendly character | | and our wmmercial relations close and recip- | rocal. * * * We have accepted a trust the { fulfillment of which calls for the sternest in- | tegrity of purpose and exercise of the highest | | wiscom. The new Cuba yet to rise from the | ashes of the past must needs be bound to us by ties of singular intimacy and strength if its enduring welfare is to be assured. The | greatest blessing which can come to Cuba is the restoration of her agricultugal and indus- i 2! prosperity.”’ | PALMA SENDS APPEAL. ' | | Yesterday, June 12, T received by cable trom the American Minister in Cuba a most earnest appeal. from President Palma for “legislative relief before it is too late and ‘the country.| financlally ruined.” The granting of reci- procity with Cuba is a proposition which stands | entirely alome. The remsons for it far out- welgh those for granting reciprocity with any other nation, and are entirely coneistent with preserving intact the protective system under which this country has thriven so marvelously, The present tariff law was designed to promote the adoption of such a reciprocity treaty and | expressly provided for a reduction not to ex- ceed 20 per cent upon goods coming from a particular country, leaving the tariff rates on | the same articles unchanged as regards ail other countries. Objection has been made to | the granting of the reduction on the ground that | the substantial benefit would not go to the | agricultural producer of sugar, but would fnure to the American sugar refineries. In my judg- | ment provision can and should be made which will guarantee us against this possibility, with- out having recourse to doubtful policy, such a& a bounty in the form of & rebate, | The question as to which, if any, of the different schedules of tariff ought most properly to be revised does not enter into this matter in any way or shape. We are concerned with getting a friendly reciprocal agreement with Cuba. This arrangement applies to all the articles that Cuba grows or produces. It is not in our power to determine what these ar- ticles shall be, and any discussion of the tarift as it affects epecial schedules, or countries other than Cuba, is wholly aside from the subject matter to which I now call your attention. Some of our citizens opposed the lowering of the tariff on Cuban products, just as three years ago they opposed the admission of thc Hawalian Islands, lest free trade with them might ruin certain of our interests here. In as regards Hawail, and their apprehensions as to the damage to any industry of our 'own be- cause of the proposed measure of reciprocity with Cuba seem to me equally baseless. In my judgment no Amerfcan industry will be hurt, and many industries will be benefited by the proposed ‘action. It is to our advantage as a nation that the growing Cuban market should be controlled by American producers. PLEADS FOR REPUBLIC. The events following the war with Spain and the prospective building of the isthmian: canal render it certain that we must take in the future @ far greater interest than hitherto in what happens throughout the West Indfes, Cen- tral America and the adjacent coasts and wa- ters. We expect Cuba to treat us on an exeep- tional footing, politically, and we should put her in the same exceptional position econom- ically. The proposed action s in line with the course we have pursued as regards all the isl- TR, "8 7§ | cluded ‘within our tariff lines, | benefit ae well as ours, and without any of the | her international DEPUTIES ARE REMOVED AND PEACE IS PREDICTED Street Railway Strike in Pawtucket Con- tinues, Soldiers Guard the Lines, but Reign of Violence Is Probably Ended ] e, % % AWTUCKET, R. 1, June 13.— Action which the authorities hope means the beginning of the end of the reign of violence incident to the streqt railway strike was taken to-day by !High Sheriff Hunt- er C. White in removing his deputy sheriffs from the street cars. He did this on representations made to him that the deputies accomplished ‘no good pur- | pose, but incited the crowds to violence. After the withdrawal of these men the city became quiet.

The car was escorted safely past the pits where the attacks of yesterday were made. The crowd was | kept on the move and as soon as there ! was a sign of a dsmonstration arrests ‘were made, the prisoners being locked up | at the State armory and afterward turned over to the police. After that the cars on the avenue were operated without further hindrance. The military authorities to-day issued orders to take notice of every infraction of the peace and to arrest ail who re- fused to obey their commands. Persons found shouting, placing obstructions on the tracks or otherwise misbehaving were arrested at sight, and if any pronounced demonstration was made by the mob the orders were to warn the assemblage and then shoot if the injunctions were not heeded.

Cuba is an independent republic which has assumed certain special obligations as regards sition in compliance with our request. I for her certain special eco- nomic concessions in return; these economic con- cessions to benefit us as well as her. There are few brighter pages In American history than the page which tells of our dealings with Cuba during the past four years, On her behalf we waged a war, of which the mainspring was gen- erous indignation against oppression, and we have kept faith absolutely. It is earnestly to be hoped that we will complete in the same spirit the record so well begun, and show in our dealings with Cuba that steady continuity of policy which it is essential for our nation to establish in foreign affairs if we desire to play well our part as a world power, ‘We are a wealthy and powerful natlon; Cuba is a young republic, still weak, who owes to us her birth, whose whole future, whose very life must depend on our attitude toward her. T ask that we help her as she struggles upward along the painful and difficult road of self-govern- ment and independence. I ask this aid for her because she is weak, because she needs it, be- cause we have already aided her. I ask that open-handed help, of a kind which a_self- specting people can accept, be given to Cuba, for the very reason that we have giveR her such help in the past. Our soldlers fought to give her freedom, and for three years our representa- tives, civil and military, have tolled unceasing. ly, facing disease of a peculiarly sinister and fatal type with patient and uncomplaining for- titude; to teach her how to use aright her new freedom. Never in history hus any allen coun. try been thus administered, with such high integrity of purpose, such wise judgment and such a single-handed devotion to the country’s inter Now I ask that the Cubans be given all possible chance to use to the best advantage the freedom of which Americans have such Tight to be proud and for which so many Amer- ican lives have been sacrificed.
