On the advice of Senator Hanna, who is too astute a politician not to appreciate the baneful effect on bis party of the continued suppression of facts and figuers by the War Department, Secretary Root has made public the cost of the Philippine war up to the first of May. By the most conservative methods of figuring which the Secretary could command, the total now aggregates $170,326,586. These figures, large as they are, do not however, tell the whole story. Mr. Root, of course, makes no mention of the $20,000,000 originally paid to Spain nor has he any way of figuring that portion of the cost which has been incurred by the Navy Department and which is not small. Last May, however, the Secretary of the Navy threw some light on the situation by sending to Congress a statement the total of which aggregated, in round numbers, $20,(XX),000. It may, therefore, be safely stated that the Philippine Islands have cost this country, up to date, $210,000,000 which would mean, exclusive of the purchase price, an annual expenditure of $50,0(X),000. So stupendous are these figures that they convey but little to the mind of the average man, but when it is calculated that the islands have cost every man, woman and child in the United States $3. or, to the bread winner who has five mouths to feed, 15, some conception of the expense of being a '‘world power” can be arrived at.
Our old and highly esteemed and ever courteous contemporary, the editor of the Rensselaer Republican, a loving friend and true admirer of the Herald, is evidently disturbed because this paper may in the long years of the future get the county printing. To Bro. Marshall the acme of success in journalism is to get a mighty grip on the county pap and hold on to it to the last dregs. When a paper can once fasten upon the public teat, according to the intimated views of our worthy brother I he surely knows “where he is at,” I and to know “where he is at,” is ! one of the cherished ideas of journalism, a la Rensselaer Republi lean—provided always, of course, that he gets the county printing. When Gabriel sounds his horn and continents begin to roll up like an unmounted map, Bro. Marshall will be found standing upon a muskrat heap inditing a glowing tribute to the advantages of having the county printing and embracing a scatching, devilish and hilariously humorous rebuke to some other poor brother who is in line to get a bite. Well, there is at least one anticipated delight in our brother’s suggestion that the Herald will now bean “organ” and know “where it is at.” It will jdace us upon that higher plane of journalism from which i Bro. Marshall has been viewing us so many years, i. e., county pap pedestal, and therefore we can meet him at the front door instead of in the back lot Shake. Goodland Herald.
Congressman Champ Clark of Missouri administered a “skini ning to Congressman Landis (Thursday afternoon, which was ( enjoyed by a large audience. He ( replied to the speech made by Landis. He said that in praising Funston and other heroes who did such wonderful things in Cuba, Landis should not have overlooked that illustrious son of Indiana, C. F. \V. Neely. "The gentleman's statement that democrats have turned their backs and run from the problems growing out of the Philippine 1 war is a foul slander,” he said. I “He doesn’t deserve even the poor | credit of the paternity of that statement. He borrowed it from
] Gen. Grosvenor, who is the father of all political fables. He says ' he believes in God, meaning that | jail who differ from him do not. It is cruel in him to shut the gates of mercy on mankind in that way. It would be more interesting to i know whether God believes in him. I prefer to accept Christ as the exponent of God. He said, ‘Do unto others ns ye would that , they should do unto you,’ a thing which the republicans are not do- I ing in the Philippines.” When j Air. Clark said that as many democrats as republicans (ought in the Spanish American war, and mentioned Hobson, Dewey, W heeler and Schley, he was tremendously cheered. He paid his ; complimeats to Congressman Steele, who, he said, stands in the relation of “a grent poll parrot” (to the leaders of the ways and means committee.

COERCION OF MAJOR GUFF.
’•This thing of lettin’ wimmen vote," said honest Major Guff,- , "Is a piece of dang'rus folly, and has gone ’bout far enough. They've got no head fer polytics; their ways ■> :s underhand; There ain't no use of talkin’, the're a menace to th’ land. Now, when th’ sewer tax was sprung, I didn’t lose a minute . In lettin' everybody know that I was dead agin it. "That microbe talk is rot,’ sez I; ‘jest silly doctor’s fuss; The system that our fathers used is good enough fer us.’ But Mary Jane, my wife, y’ know, she went and jined a club, •And tily' change yer mind,' sez she, 11l - sliet y' off on grub. I'll make no bread ner pies,’ sez she; ‘there's naught goes down yer throat,' Until y’ see things same as me, an’ promise us yer vote.’ I tried to argufy with her, and show her how sech tricks Wascrooel and unrecognized in decent polytics; She jest set still with folded hands, she wouldn't budge an inch; Doggone it all, she must of knOWed she had a lead-pipe cinch I She wouldn’t hear no common sense. I simply wasted breath; I stuck it out for two whole days, but like to starved to death. ‘Fetch on the pottage!' I exclaimed, ‘You’ve learned me how to feel Fer the late lamented Esau in his noted birthright deal!' And that is why I'm dead agin all forms of wimmin'i rights, A-leavin' of their proper sphere to mix in men folks' tights. -Fer polytics is something that they cannot understand; Their ways, as I remarked before, is sly and underhand. It’s well enough to theorize, but fax, my friends, is fax,-. As was amply illustrated in the case of sewer tax." New Orleans Times-Democrat.
BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTES TO DESERVING MEN.
In his speech before the Democratic Congressional convention, after referring to the difficulties to be overcome, Capt. Guthrie paid the following beautiful tribute to former residents of Monticello—tributes that will be appreciated by those who knew these men in years gone by. He said: “I have also some encouragein the thought that our own little town has furnished examples which are worthy of imitation and stand as an inspiration to us all. “In years gone by this district seemed hopeless for those who believed in the principles of Jefferson. “The people came to the rescue and elected to the high office for which you have nominated me, one of our own townsmen—one whose name was a household word. One whose voice was sweet and kind and whose touch was healing. “Known and respected by all throughout this and adjoining counties; with character pure and white, and purposes lofty and noble, he lived a life of honor and usefulness, serving the people with his professional knowledge and skill and the district in congress and the country at large, with industry, energy and devotion seldom equaled. “I refer to our deceased and beloved fellow townsman, Dr. W. S. Haymond. “On other occasions, and there were many of them, when the light of hope had almost gone out of the hearts of the democracy of this district, when the teachings of Jackson and our forefathers seemed almost forgotten; yon called another of our townsmen, and asked him to lead you to vic“You that are older remember the great political battles in which he led you A scholar, a linguist, a jurist and an advocate of rare attainments and ability, he always stood for the principles of Jefferson and Jackson, and for the common people. “He stood like a gladiator in the political arena, battling for Constitutional Government and an honest administration of public affairs. ntellectual giant, having an undaunted and unwavering purpose, true to his own mind and the people of the whole country, he has honored this state and the nation with a record untarnished and with usefulness unsurpassed. “He now lives in retirement in the city of Indianapolis, enjoying the respect of all citizens; with character unspotted, a public record unstained, a life devoted to the public, an honest man, a faithful democrat and a high-minded citizen. “I refer to Ex-United States Senator David Turpie.”

Very Remarkable Cure of Diarrhoea. ’’About six years ago for the first time in my life I had a sudden and severe attack of says Mrs. Alice Miller, of Morgan, Texas. "I got temporary relief, but it came back again and again, and for six long years I have suffered more misery and agony than I can tell. It was worse than death. My husband spent hundreds of dollars for physician's prescriptions and treatment without avail. Finally we moved to Bosque county, our present home, and one day I happened to see an advertisement of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy with a testimonial of a man who had been cured by it. The case was so similar to my own that I concluded to try the remedy. The result was wonderful. I could hardly realize that 1 was well again, or believe it could be so after having suffered so long, but that one bottleof medicine, costing but a few cents, cured me.” For sale by A. F. Long.
