It is a Just War, Many are doubtless asking them selves whether, after all, it is worth while ; whether the Cubans for whose freedom we are fighting and the prin ciples of humanity for which we have picked this quarrel, are worth the sacrifice of these lives and all the sacrifices of this war. We unhesitat ingly answer yes. It is a war deliber ately undertaken in acknowlegement of our national responsibility for the prevention of crimes against humanity committed at very doors. It is not a war of revenge. The cry "Remember the Maine" does not express its mo tive, although we may pardon the seamen who find it so strong a battle cry. That crime was but one of a long series of horrors which make up the history of Spanish misrule in Cuba, and it is that misrule with its fearful inhumanity that placed upon us the duty of forcible intervention long delayed and at last manfully ac cepted. It is a war for civilization and progress ; for humanity and free dom ; a just war and a holy one. It is worth whatever it may cost, not to our people only, but to all the world, including Spain.— Ex. Government Seed Testing. The act of Congress making appro • pnations for the Department of Agri culture for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1899, under the heading "Botanical Investigations and Experi ments, Division of Botany," contains the following clause : The Secretary of Agriculture is hereby authorized to purchase samples of seed in open market, test same and when found not up to standard he may, at his discretion, publish the results of these tests, together with the names of the seedsmen by whom the seeds were sold. The purchase of seeds for the tests authorized under this act will begin July 1, 1898. It will be the aim of the Department of Agriculture in carrying out this law to put a stop to the sale of seed so poor as to make probable a positive injury and loss to the purchaser, thus giving protection on the one hand to the farmer and gardener and on the other hand to the honorable seedsman and seed dealer. Further imformation, including a table of the standards of purity and germination and a list of the most injurious seeds likely to occur in com mercial seed, may be obtained from the Department upon application. There is more Catarrh in this sec tion of the country than all other dis eases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incura ble. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and pre scribed local remedies, and by con stantly failing to cure with local treat ment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney &Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoon ful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surtaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address, F. J.

Mac Donald is the head of a New York firm, which at times has employed 15,000 men in railway building in Jamaica at all sea sons of the year. He scouts the idea that a summer campaign in Cuba would be attended with special risk or hardship to the troops, but adds that they should not wear clothes that are too heavy. He says, however, that they should' be furnished with woolen underwear and socks. "Pro vided with good food and the best of medical advice and attendance, as they undoubtedly will be" he says "the United States troops need not fear the climate." Large Wheat Aoreage. Preliminary returns of the spring wheat acreage, with the two Dakotas in particular subject to revision, indi cate a total area seeded of 16,850,000 acres, which, added to the area of winter wheat, 26,200,000 acres, make a total wheat acreage of 43,000,- 000 or rather over three and a half million acres greater than last year. There is an increase of 8 per cent, in Minnesota, 22 in lowa, 30 in Nebraska, n in North Dakota, 5 in Oregon and 2 in Washington. Wars come high.

New York, July 6.—A1l was bustle and confusion yesterday at the Ameri can line pier at the foot of Fulton street, where the United States auxili ary cruiser St. Paul lay. The ship was being loaded wl'th 2,500 tons of coal, provisions, Including fresh fruits and supplies for General Shatter's army at Santiago de Cube, for which port the St. Paul will set sail to-day. On board of her will be the Eighth Ohio volunteers, known as the "Presi dent'e Own ReglmenL" under Colonel Henry. Which left Camp Alger at Washington, D. C„ yesterday for this city. "I don't exactly know myself Just what I turn to do," said Captain Sigsbee yesterday. "The only Information that I have got Is In the form of an order from Washington to make preparations to take a regiment of Infantry south. I presume that this Is the Eighth Ohio, as that has been the one spoken of thus far. I Shall finish coaling to-day and also will have all my supplies aboard and can sail Just so soon as the troops get aboard." Among the supplies which are load ing on the SL Paul for General Shat ter are 10,000 canvas uniforms, 25,000 suits of underclothing, 69,000 pairs of socks, 5,000 campaign hats and 25,000 pairs cf shoes. More than the 10,000 canvas suits already loaded will be sent south on the St. Paul If the rush order that the department quartermaster put In for them Is able to be filled In time. The cruiser will also carry a lot of horseshoes, muleshoes and nails. Washington, July 6.—The brigade un der General Garretson at Camp Alger has been ordered to proceed at once to Santiago. The Eighth Ohio regi ment goes to New York to take the cruiser SL Paul. The other regiments, the Sixth Mas sachusetts and Sixth Illinois, go to Charleston, S. C., where the Yale and Harvard will be Intercepted on their way North to embark these troops for Santiago. The brigades of General Ernst and General Haines, now at Chlckamaugn, will move with all possible dispatch to Charleston, Savannah, Mobile, and oth er Atlantic coast points, there to take transports to Santiago. In detail the commands making up this important body of reinforcements are as follows: General Ernst'B brigade, First brig ade, First division. First Army Corps- Third Wisconsin, Colonel Martin T. Moore; Fifth Illinois, Colonel James S. Culver; First Kentucky, Colonel John B. Castleman. General Haine's Third brigade, Third division of the First army corps—Ninth Pennsylvania, Colonel Charles B.

An Kxtrn Session. Albany, July 6.—The extraordinary of the legislature will be called by Gov ernor Black to convene on Monday night, July 11, at 8.30 o'clock. This was decided upon by the governor after a three hours' conference yesterday with thirty of the more prominent of the legislators from the up-state dis tricts. These men were summoned here by the governor to see If some bill could not be agreed upon to divorce the con trol of the elections In New York city from the police force. No particular plan was acceptable to the conference, and i>t was decided to have the Judiciary committee of both houses and the chairmen of the titles committee meet here at once and draft a bill that would be suitable to all. Promotion for Sampson am] Other Officers. Washington, July 6.—The president yesterday afternoon sent these nomina tions to the Senate: Commodore Frederick V. McNair to be rear admiral. Captain William T. Sampson to be commodore. Commander Francis W. Dlcklns to be captain. Lieutenant Commander William S. Cowles to be commander. Lieutenant (Junior grade) H. A. Field to be lieutenant. Ensign Albert L. Norton to be lieu tenant. IVspi Reduction In Canada. Montreal, July 6.—A 10 per cent, re duction in the wages of shirt makers In this city came into effect on July 1. The manufacturers claim that Cana dian goods are being crowded out by American and foreign and that the in dustry has been struggling against great disadvantages since the present tariff came into force. The shirt manufacturers of Canadta employ over 8,000 hands, ninety per cent, of whom are women. These are paid wages av eraging 1 per day. which enables them to llvxe, if nothing more. The Army Py Bin Failed. Washington, July 6.—The Senate am endment to the bill for the pay of the army from enrolment to the mustering in were concurred in by the House yes terday, and the bill now goes to the president. Npiln'a Minister to Morocco. Tangier, July 6.—The Spanish minis ter here has gone to Madrid, it is be lieved, for instructions in connection with the American squadron's expected visit at Tangier. Morocco has declared ker neutrality. THE OOLUMBIAN. BLOOMS BURG, PA. COMMENT IN LONDON. Spain Urged to Sue for Peace at the Fnrllest Moment. London, July 6.—The Dally Mail, In an editorial, under the caption, "As in 1863," says: "Wherever the English language Is spoken, yesterday there was Jublllaitlon. Admiral Cervera's defeat by the Am erican navy has nobly redeemed the latter'e recent apparent Inaction. Ad miral Sampson's name stands with Admiral Dewey's. With Sampson rests the glory of this Fourth of July. If the war had shown nothing else It would have proved the amazing efficiency of the American navv." The Times says; "Admiral Sampson's brilliant exploit was us complete as Admiral Dewey's. Notning but the conviction that his plight within thi harbor was hopeless could I ave Justified Admiral Cervera's attempt to leave. Had he been able to Judge correctly what was passing in Cene-al Shatter's mind, doubtless he would have remained. The difficul ties of navigation probably caused him to make a bold effort by daylight. "t Is not easy at this moment to fore see the wider consequences of the un challenged supremacy of the American fleet In Cuban waters. Overpowered, after an heroic defence, Spain's only course Is —her friends even In the French press urge her —to seek peace, which, even if onerous, cannot now be dishonorable." The Dally Graphic says: "If Senor Satanta elects to risk fur ther disasters for fear of the frothy Jingoes in Madrid, he will Incur a ter rible responsibility. The Spanish flag has been borne with undying glory In the face of tremendous odds, and the punctilios of honor have been generous ly sa/tisfled." The Dally News tenders similar ad vice. It says: "The Spaniards can flght and die. So ran the Americans. Ambassador Hay, In his glowing and eloquent speech of yesterday, gloried In this thought, but to their equal courage Americans add in this unequal combat with Spain not only vastly superior material resour ces, but a devising of mind and a skil led organisation without which brav ery Is nothing but a means of provid ing stuff for the shambles." THANKS FOR SCHLEY. Resolution Introduced Into the Honlfl by Reprueentatlve Itet-ry, ot Kentucky. Washington, July 6.—Representative Berry of Kentucky yesterday introduc ed In the House a Joint resolution ten dering the thanks of Congress to Com modore Schley and the officers and meit under his command for the de struction of the Spanish fleet. The res olution Is as follows: "Resolved, That the thanks of Con gress and of the American people are hereby tendered to Commodore Schley, U. S. N., for his heroic and distin guished conduct In destroying the Spa nish fleet In Cuban waters on the third of July last." COMMODORE SCHLEY. The body of the resolution omits ref erence to those under Schley's com mand who are recognized in the title. Fourth of July Tornados. Hampton, N. H„ July 5.—A terrific tornado struck a section of Hampton Beach at 3.15 yesterday afternoon, causing Immense damage to beach property and loss of life. The atmos pheric disturbance came almost with out warning. A yacht owned by Captain Frank Mudd of this place was sailing off the beach and was in the path ot the storm. In It were nine persons and of these five were drowned. Beverly, Mass., July s.—The small excursion steamer Surf City, with about 60 passengers on board, while half way over from Salem Willows to her wharf here, a distance of about two mile 3, was struck by a sudden but ter rific squall about 6 o'clock last night and capsized. Of those on board a large majority are believed to have been rescued by boats from both the Salem and Beverly shores, but no less than six bodies had been recovered at dark. Can the Colon He Seved. Off Santiago, July 6.—The Spanish armored cruiser Cristobal Colon has listed on her beam ends on the rocks. It Is now practically Impossible to save her. The first and only statement concern ing the recent naval battle made by the Spanish commander, Admiral Cervera, was to a correspondent of the Associ ated Press, on board the battleship lowa. It was as follows: "I would rather lose my ships at sea like a sailor, than In a narbor. It was the only thing left for me to '(jo," Chicago Without News. Chicago, July 6.—The strike of a handful of men Is still keeping hun dreds ot newspaper workers here out of employment. In all, It Is said, there were only about sixty of the disaffected stereotypeTs, but their peremptory de mands for higher , wages, a smaller number of hours for a day's work, and big pay for overtime have prevented 800 compositors, 175 reporters, 150 press men and other regular employes of newspaper offices from earning any money. To Take British Subjects from Snntlago. Kingston, Jamaica, July 6.—The Brlt i ish warships Pallas and Alert have left here for Santiago de Cuba In order to bring away British subjects who are [ desirous of leaving that city. No More Boxes for the Troops. The action of the War Department in discouraging the sending of boxes filled with delicacies to the troops will seem to fond parents and relatives somewhat harsh, but it is based upo i the belief that pickled onions, pre served cherries, canned fruit, cakes and pies ar£ likely to do the recipients more harm than good. The sending of these boxes has been a precious I privilege in thousands of homes, and their receipt has caused unbounded joy in the camps, but there is not now the need for these supplies that existed up to a couple of weeks ago. The digestive powers of youth, strengthened by an out-of-door life night and day, with the lungs always filled with fresh air, are capable of as similating even the highly concen trated foods that the War Depart ment has determined to rule out from the camps hereafter. Perhaps no one soldier, or group of comrades, re ceives boxes often enough to do ser ious harm to the consumers. But these boxes could easily become so numerous with a people who are the best-fed people in the world that they may become serious impediments. Besides, if the soldier from the start lives on soldier fare in camp he will do less growling and feel the hard ship less when compelled to live on soldier fare on the march. The Be venue Stamps. On the face of the new revenue stamps which are now being dis'ribut ed is engraved a representation of the ill fated battleship Maine. There is no inscription, excepting the denomi- I nation. The color of the new stamps are : One eighth cent proprietary, light green ; three-eighth cent proprie tary, salmon ; five-eighth cent pro prietary, dark blue ; one cent propri etary, purple ; two cent proprietary, dark brown ; four cent proprietary, light purple ; two cent documentary, light pink ; four cent documentary, dark pink. They are oblong in shape. The battleship is pictured as going at full speed through a heavy sea. from the two smokestacks is pouting vol umes of dense smoke. The stamps, millions of which will be used, are a silent, though appropriate reminder of the loss of the pride of the American navy and 266 of her bravest sailors j through Spanish treachery. TUMOR EXPELLED. Unqualified Success of Lydla E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
