Washington Notes. For the first time prominent officials are witling to admit the probability of an extra session of congress having to be called to deal with the Chinese situation. With all his assumptions of imperial authority, Mn McKinley will not dare to declare war, and a declaration of . war upon China by the other powers whose citizens have been killed may be expected any day. It has been hinted that Mr. McKinley would withdraw American troops if the other powers declare war against China and let the foreigners do all the fighting, but the American people will have something to say about that. The murder of a number of American missionaries has been fully authenticated, and the people are only waiting for authentic news of the fate of the American minister and other Americans in Pekin who are believed also to have been murdered. While they know that the people will let Mr. McKinley know their will as they did about the war with Spain,, and he and congress will obey, as they did then. The fact that an officer of Ihe Cuban military government, Maj. E. T. Ladd, treasurer, should have given out an intereview in Washington, against the withdrawal of the United States troops from Cuba and the fitness of the Cubans for self-government, with the usual rot about the “better classes" being in favor of permanent American control of the island, strengthens the suspicion that the announced withdrawal of the United States from Cuba, was made for effect in the political campaign in this country rather than with the intention of being carried out in good faith, it is not conceivable that a subordinate army officer would have allowed himself to be publicly quoted, as Maj. Ladd has done, if he had not known that his sentiments were those held

by bis official superiors. The tendency of this administration to follow the imperialistic policy of government without congressional authority, was again emphasized by the announcement cabled from Madrid, getting news of what our government is doing from foreign capitols, is not pleasing, to the average American, although it has become quite prominent under the McKinley regime,” that this government had offered Spain $100,(K)0 for the two islands of the Philippine group which were not covered by the boundary line named in the treaty of peace with Spain. It is the theory -of this government that the executive branch can pay out no money that has not been specifically appropriated by congress for a particular purpose, but that theory has been departed from several times under the present administration, beginning with the lump sum of $50*--000,000 placed at Mr. McKinley.’s disposal to prepare for the war. with Spain. That departure was justifiable under the circumstances and was authorized by the unanimous vote of congress', but there have been other departures which were neither justifiable nor authorized, and this offer to purchase more islands is one of them, it was knqwn last winter that Spain had laid claim to those two islands, but instead of referring? the matter to congress, the administration announced, that Spain had been notified that its claim would not be recognized. That was supposed to have ended the

Hiatter, until the Spanish government informed the world that this government had offered to pay $100,000 for the islands. If congress was not re* publican in both branches and thoroughly dominated by the imperial administration, it would call down this unconstitutional usurpation of authority, and demand to know’ from what fund this $100,000 is to be taken. There is an emergency fund at the disposal of the administration, but it is certain that those who voted to appropriate it never contemplated the use of any portion of it for the purchase of islands. ^lf this republic is to be preserved as established, a government must be put in power that will follow the precepts laid down by the constitution, w hich the deniocratio platform pledges Bryan and Stevenson to do. Senator Vest was right w hen he declared that the great issue of this campaign was republic or empire, with the democratic party standing for the republic and the republican party standing for the empire. “One of the results of Hanna’s survey of the situation,” said one republican to another, “has been an urgent request .from him to the trust magnates and other large employers of labor who are under obligations to him for legislative favors, to keep down labor troubles and to prevent) strikes at any cost, until after the election. The war taxes are still piling money up in the treasury. The annual report of the commissioner of internal j revenue, shows receipts for the fiscal year.ending June 30th, to have been $205,310,107, an increase over the previous year of $21,831,534. More than $100,000,000 ought to be in the pockets of those w ho paid it into the treasury. The Democrat office is headquarters for job printing of all kinds.

Applicants for first enlistment must be between the ages of 18 and 35 years, of good character and habits, ablebodied, free from disease, and must be able to speak, read and write the English language. No person under 18 years pf age will be enlisted or re-enlisted, and minors between the ages of 18 to 21 years must not be enlisted without the written consent of father, only surviving parent, or legally appointed guardian. Original enlistments will be confined to persons who are citizens of the United States, or who have made Legal declaration of their intention to become citizens thereof. Married men will be enlisted only upon the approval of a regimental commander. Applicants will be required to satisfy the recruiting officer regarding age and character, and should be prepared to furnish the necessary evidence.

Marked disproportion of weight over height is not a cause for rejection unless the applicant be positively obese. Applicant's must defray their own expenses to the place of enlistment. Their fitness for the military service can be determined only upon examination at a military post or other recruiting station. The term of service is three years. All soldiers receive from the government (in addition to their pay) rations, clothing, bedding, medicines and medical attendance.

Nominated a Ticket. The republicans of Washington township met in mass convention *at the court house last Saturday and nominated a township ticket. About half the voters of the township was in attendance. The affair was quite heated and much bitterness displayed. There were several fights during the afternoon and a number of the boys felt the “spirits” which had been handed out. The first nomination was that of trustee. The first ballot resulted O. Shandy, 110: W. H. Link, 99. and George E. King, 94, King having received the lowest number of votes was dropped. The second ballot resulted in Shandy receiving 184 votes and Link 140. For assessor Charles E. Miley received 131 votes and John T. Robling 108 votes. No nominations were made for justice of the peace, constables and advisory board. For supervisors the following persons were nominated: District No. 1, Thomas Williams: No. 3, W. S. Selby: No. 4, Jeff Parker; No. 7, S. A. Chamness, The other supervisors not nominated will be placed on the ticket by the township committee. | As soon as the nominations for trustee and assessor were made there was but little interest taken in the convention. There is much dissatisfaction over the result of the convention.

HI* Life Was Saved. Mr. J. E. Lilly, a prominent citizen of Hannibal, Mo., lately had a wonderful deliverance from a frightful death. In telling of it he says: “I was taken with typhoid fever, that ran into pneumonia. My lungs became hardened. I was so weak I couldn’t sit up in bed. Nothing helped me. I expected tosoon die of consumption, when I* heard of Dr. King’s New Discovery.' One bottle gave great relief. J continued to use it, and now am well and strong, I can’t say too much in its praise.” This marvelous medicine is the surest and quickest cure in the wor)d for all throat and lung trouble. Regular sizes *>0 cents and $1.00. Trial bottles free at Stearnes' drug company; e'very bottle guaranteed.

King Humbert Assassinated. King Humbert of Italy was assassinated Sunday evening by a man named Angelo Bressi de Prato and died in a few minutes. The king had been attending a distribution of prizes in connection with a gymnastic competition. He had just entered hjs carriage with his aide de camp amid the cheers of the crowd, when he was struck by three revolver shots tired in quick succession. One pierced the heart of his majesty who fell back and expired in a few minutes. The assassin was immediately arrested and was with some difficulty saved from the fury of the populace. He gave his name as Angelo Bressi, describing himself as of Prato in Tuscany. The murderer, Angelo Bressi, who is an avowed anarchist, cynically admitted his crime.

China Declares War., , A special from Tien Tsin says: “A Peking1 message dated July 2^ reports that the first outside news reached here July 18. The failure of the relief expedition made the siege far more perilous. On July 1®, the tsung li yamen broke off relations. July 20 China declared war. Baron Von Ketteler and Francis James, an English professor, were murdered. Over 400 non-combatants occupied the British legation. I understand converts are holding the north cathedral. A thousand refugees occupied the palace of Prince Lu. A truce began July 17, after twentysix fierce Assaults. Ohe night the shelling was uninterrupted for six hours. Four attempts were made to fire the British legation. Two attacks resulted in the ruin of Han Lin college (the Chinese national college.) The cowardice of the Chinese prevented a successful rushing. The total killed: Germans. 1.0: Japanese, 10; French. 11; British “»; Russians, 4: Americans, 7; Italians, 7: converts, 9. Total, with wounded,. 98. The correspondents Morrison, He id and Tempty are ill. At least 2,000 Chinese have been killed. The Americans occupy a strong position in the city. j The hospital arrangements are excellent. Everybody is much exhausted by continuous work. Imperial edicts have commended the Boxers and ordered missionaries to leave the interior and commanded ^11 viceroys to help Peking, but an edict dated July 18 enjoins protection and promises compensation. The report that a large relief force was coming produced this change. Foreign governments should beware of being ambushed.

H, Shirley, proprietor Kline hotel. For sale by Oliphant drug company. a Roosevelt’s Insulting Speech. Here is thp meat in Governor Roosevelt's speech officially opening the campaign: “The democrats stand for lawlessness, for dishonesty and dishonor, for license and disaster at home and cowardly shrinking from duty abroad.'’ What more could yon want to make democrats vote for the brave Roosevelt? What do you think of a young gentleman who characterizes in this fashion the seven million American citizens who voted for Bryan four years ago? Governor Roosevelt's description, by the way, applies to General Lawton—he was a democrat: and to Dewey—he is a democrat: and to Schley—he is a democrat:* and to General Wheeler—he is a democrat. Were those men “dishonest at home and cowards abroad?'’ A wise old man in the democratic party remarked when Roosevelt was nominated: “We can safely rely on that young man to make more kinds of a fool of himself than any man has ‘ever done in public life.” Governor Roosevelt seems to be rapidly verifying the prediction.— Chicago American.
