Decisions Important to County Commis sioners. Congressman Hicks, at the request of J. Horace Smith, esq., solicitor for Blair county, submitted recently to the commissioner of internal revenue a question as to the liability of counly commissioners and county treasurers under the new tax law. Recently Mr. Hicks received a reply from the commissioner in which the commis sioner says ''that an order drawn by county commissioners in their official capacity upon the county treasurer in discharge of the duties imposed upon them by law is not subject to the stamp tax." The commissioner further says as to the county treasurer : "That the county treasurer drawing a check on the bank and signing it in his official capacity as county treasurer, in pay memt of an order drawn upon him by the county commissioners, must be regarded as the exercise of a function belonging to him strictly as an officer of the county, and therefore no stamp is required to be affixed to such check." It has generally been supposed that when a county treasurer deposited his money in a bank that such de posit was for the convenience of the treasurer, and that the checks of the treasurer would be subject to the stamp tax. The commissioner, how ever, holds, as is noticed by his decis ion above quoted, that checks drawn by the county treasurer as such and signed as such are not subject to the stamp tax. If this be a proper inter pretation of the law we suppose it applies equally to checks issued by a city treasurer. It's the Platform of the People. So far as it is possible the Demo cratic State convention has made vital questions of State administration the paramount, controlling and sole issue of this campaign. The declaration is incisive, unmistakable and radical, and has the added merit of incontes tible truth. Honest government, home rule and clean politics are presented as the paramount issues. The single nation al issue pertinent is met by a pledge of hearty support to the government on ar active and aggressive conduct of the war with Spain. This covers the ground, for on this question our people are all of one mind. No need of words. But not for years, and, we judge, never before, has there been such a ringing declaration as the Altoona convention put forth on the wrongs, abuses and crimes that have grown up in this commonwealth under the maign influence and desperate and greedy avarice of machine politics and legislation. The specifications are terrible in their truth and the offenses against good government they enumerate, and are fitly supphmented by pledges of reform in legislation and political methods that will meet the hearty approval of every true son of the commonwealth.— Ex. 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 I. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from ro drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address, F. J.

In answer to references from the Commissioner of Internal Revenue all bearing upon the question as to whettier the shipper or carrier shall pav for and affix the required revenue stamps to bills of landing, etc., Assist ant Attorney General Boyd has held as follows : "The purpose of the law is clear. It was to tax the carrier and not the shipper, and these provisions undoubt edly fi* upon the express companies and other carriers the duty of provid ing, affixing and cancelling the stamp, and their failure to so provide, affix and cancel such stamp subjects them to the penalties provided by law. It is suggested that some of these car riers are refusing to receive goods for shipment until the shipper pays the tax. While it is not my province to advise as to the recourse which the shipper may have in instances of this kind, yet I am sure that the laws arc ample to require public carriers and express companies to receive goods tendered fo. shipment or suffer dam ages for such refusal." THE SPOILS OF WAR. NUMBER OF PRISONERS EXCEED THE STRENGTH OF SHAFTER'3 ARMY. 1 Ten Million Hounds of Ammunition Were Pelzcrt at Wanting". Shnfrer Auks War Uepartinent to Hurry Departure of Immune lteatmente. Washington, D. C., July 20.j-The war department received a dispatch from General Shafter saying that the roster of prisoners was handed In yesterday afternoon by General Toral and that the total Is 22,789 men. General Shafter's dispatch added that the prisoners turned over to him far exceeded in numbers the strengtn of his own army. General Shafter has asked the war department to hurry forward the regi ments of lmmunes for service at Santi ago city and vicinity In order that there may be a minimum of danger of furth er Infection of our troops from the fever which prevails at Santiago. Secretary Alger deems It probable that the total number of Spanish sol diers who will have to be transported to Spain will reach 25,000, estimated by General Shafter as General Torsi's reports did not cover quite all the "sol diers who would be turned over. The secretary says the military gov ernor of Santiago has not been defi nitely selected. "Our army captured 10,000,000 rounds of ammunition at Santiago, so that It will not need such supplies for some time. General Shafter In a dispatch to the war department says he will send offi cers and men to receive the surrender of garrisons In the Interior amounting to about 2,000 Spanish aoldlers. He will also send forces to receive the surren der of the coast towns of Guantanamo, Bolson, Sagua and Panclnlt. Ten thou sand stands of arms, he says, were taken at Santiago. Some apprehension Is expressed here that the assumption by the United States government of the control of affairs at Santiago may lead to trou ble with the Cubans. A few days be fore the surrender of the city General Garcia sent a commltteee to General Shafter Informing him that the Cu bans had selected a Cuban named Cas tillo for governor of that city. It Is plain, however, from the read ing of the president's order to Shaf ter that it will be a long time before this Cuban officer is allowed to exercise the functions of governor and It is be lieved It is the president's purpose when the military government he has just erected gives way to replace it with a popular government, meaning thereby a government for Santiago chosen by the free vote of the people of Santiago. Some doubt is expressed as to wheth er this programme will be entirely ac ceptable to that element of the Cuban party which demands Immediate pos session of captured territory, but as the administration Is convinced that this element is neither the most numer ous nor respectable in the Cuban cause, it is believed their dissatisfaction will take no more dangerous form than pro tests and growls. The ordnance department of the war department is considering what to do with the large quantity of arms, ammu nition, fortification guns and ordnance stores which have come Into the pos session of this government through the surrender of Santiago. General Shafter reports that about -7,000 Mauser rifles were turned over the first day and the number will reach probably 20,000 when the troops at oth er points in the surrendered zone turn in their guns. The reports made be fore the surrender indicated that the Mausers handled by the Spanish troops were not in very good condition. The guns were all right when furnished, but the poor care they received, principally from the volunteers, left many of them rusty and defective. Ordnance officials believe, however, that the greater part of the guns can be put In first class order. The Mauser has a calibre of seven millimeters, or .2 7-8 of an Inch, while the American gun has a calibre of .3 of an inch. This difference in calibre makes it Impossible to use American ammunition In the captured guns. The surrender also covers a large stock of ammunition, rifle balls, etc., of the cal iber suitable for the Mausers, so that when the guns are repaired there will be an ample stock of cartridges to use in them. The ordnance bureau Is con sidering only what shall be done with the guns if they are utilized by this government, as It has nothing to do with the larger question concerning the ultimate return of the guns to the Spanish troops. This is a general ques tion of governmental policy, but It ap pears to be pretty well settled that the guns will not be returned to the Span lards, at least until the war Is over. The Peleyo !n Tow. Marseilles, July 20.--A steamer which has Just arrived here reports having sighted on July 16, off the coast of • Tunis, the Spanish fleet commanded by I Admiral Camara. As the steamer passed the battleship Pelayo a column of smoke suddenly issued from her and from the fact that a cruiser had to take the Pelayo In 1 tow it Is evident that the most pow erful warship of Spain has been dam aged. Itondl at a Premium. New York, July 20.—The price of the new government war bonds has ad vanced slightly. One prominent Wall street house Is bidding 102 3-4 for them and selling at 103. The latest Informa tion from Washington is to the effect that none of the bids for 35,000 or over will get awards. The bids for 3500 and less have passed the $100,000,000 mark. Yanlim In Cores.

BLOOMS BURG, PA, " CUBAN PROCLAMATION. President McKlnlsy Issues a Massage for Their Guidance. Washington, July 10.—A state paper that will mark an epoch In Amertean history was Issued last night by direc tion of President McKlnley. It provides, in generul terms, for the government of the surrendered part 01 the province of Santiago de Cuba, and Is the first document of exactly the same kind ever prepared by a president of the United States. The President's Message, Executive Mansion, Washington, July 18. To the Secretary of War: Sir: The capitulation of the Spanish forces in Santiago de Cuba, and In the eastern part of the provlnct of Santiago and the occupation of the territory by the forces of the United States, render It necessary to Instruct the military commander of the United States as to the conduct which he is to observe dur ing the military occupation. The first effect of the military occu pation of the enemy's territory Is the severance of the former political rela tions of the Inhabitants, and the estab lishment of a new political power. Un der this changed condition of things, the .inhabitants, so long as they per form their duties, are entitled to secu rity In their persons and properties, and in all their private rights and rela tions. It Is my desire that the Inhabitants of Cuba should be acquainted with the purpose of the United States to dis charge to the fullest extent its obliga tions In this regard. It will, therefore, be the duty of the commander of the army of occupation to announce and proclaim In the most public manner that we come not to make war upon the Inhabitants of Cuba, nor upon any party or faction among them, but to protect them In their homes, In their employments and in their personal and religious rights. All persons who, either t>y active aid or by honest submission, co-operate with the United States In Its efforts to give effect to this beneficent purpose, will receive the reward of Us support and protection. Our occupation should be as free from severity as posslbte. The Judges and the other officials connected with the administration of Justice, may, if they accept the su premacy of the United States, continue to administer the ordinary law of the land, as between man and man, under the supervision of the American com mander-in-chief. The native constabulary will, so far as may be practicable, be preserved. The frtedom of the people to pursue their accustomed occupations will be abridged only when it may be neces sar yto do so. While the rule of conduct of the Am erican commander-in-chief will be such as has Just been defined, It will be his duty to adopt measures of a different kind, if, unfortunately, the course the people should rcoder such meas ures Indispensable to the maintenance of law and order, lie will men pos sess the power to replace or expel the native officials in part or altogether, to substitute new courts for those that now exist, or to create such new or supplementary tribunals as may be necessary. In the exercise of these high powers the commander must be guided by his Judgment and his expe rience and a high sense of Justice. One of the most important and most practical problems with which It will be necessary to deal, is that of the treatment of property and the collec tion and administration of the reve nues. It Is conceded that all public funds and securities belonging to the government of the country in its own right, and all arms and supplies and other movable property of such gov ernment, may be seized by the mili tary occunant and converted to his own use. The real property of the state he may hold and administer, at the same time enjoying the revenues thereof, but he Is not to destroy It save in case of military necessity. All public means of transportation, such as telegraph lines, cables, rail ways and boats belonging to the state may be appropriated to his use, but unless in ease of military necessity, they are not to be destroyed. All churches and buildings devoted to religious worship and to the arts and sciences, all school houses are, so far as possible, to be protected, and all destruction or Intentional defacement of such places, of historical monuments or archives, or of works of science or art, Is prohibited, save when required by urgent military necessity. Private property, whether belonging to individuals or corporations, is to be respected, and can be confiscated only as hereafter indlvated. Means of trans portation, such as telegraph lines and cables, railways and boats, may, al though they belong to private individ uals, or corporations, be seized by the military occupants, but, unless destroy ed under military necessity, are not to be retained. While It Is held to be the right of the conqueror to levy contributions upon the enemy In their sea ports, towns or provinces which may be In his mili tary possession by conquest, and to ap ply the proceeds to defray the ex penses of the war, this right is to be 1 exercised within such limitations that ,It may not savor of confiscation. As | the result of military occupation, the taxes and duties payable by the In habitants to the former government be come payable to the military occupant, : unless he sees fit to substitute for them other rates or fodes of contribution to the expenses of the government. The j moneys so collected are to be used for the purpose of paying the expenses of I the government under the military oc i cupation, such as the salaries of the judges and the police and for the pay ment of the expenses of the army. All ports and places in Cuba which may be In the actual possession of our land and naval forces will be opened to the commerce of all neutral nations, as well as our own, in articles not con traband of war, upon payment of the prescribed rates of duty which may be In force at the time of the Importa , tion. WILLIAM McKINLEY. By order of the Secretary of War. : To H. C. Corbln, Adjutant General. Ships for Cuban Ports, i Washington, July 20.—Acting Secre tary Spauldlng has telegraphed Instruc tions to collectors on the Atlantic coast allowing them to clear American or neutral vessels with supplies and pro visions for Ouantanamo or other ports In Spanish territory in possession of the military or naval forces of the Uni ted States, 1 _ Soldiers' Families' Needs. There is Want Throughout the State. ' The families of many of the sol diers who have gone to the front from Puiiisylvaijiu aie in want and have applied for relief to the State sanitary commission and the charitable organ izations in their immediate locality. The pay of the private soldier is too small to keep himself and the family at home must to some extent depend upon the charity of their neighbors. Relief organizations have been form ed in Philadelphia, Pittsburg and other localities through the State, but much of the suffeiing and destitution, however, appears to be in the small towns where there are no relief organ ization and the local authorities have been turning the needing over to the Overseers of the Poor. Governor Hastings is in daily re ceipt of personal applications for relief from the families of Pennsylvania sol diers as well as from the soldiers themselves who write him from the front asking him to care for those who are dependent upon them for support. He has given his personal attention to these applications and to some extent has satisfied the wants of ap plicants out of his own purse. Scores of letters are received daily from sol diers or members of soldiers' families asking where they may apply for relief. Many of them tell the sad story of suffering and are pathetic in the extreme. The sanitary commission is distri buting upward of S4OO a day among the families of Pennsylvania soldiers and could expend twice the amount if it could be had. The State commis sion is co-operating with the national organization of which Dr. M. S. French, of Philadelphia, is general secretary. Governor Hastings made a sub scription of SSOO to the Stale sanitary commission at its initial meeting at Harrisburg and has made disburse ments during the past month which will likely amount to twice that sum, while at the same time Mrs. Hastings has expended in similar work an amount equal to that which her gener ous husband has given. Harrisburg, however, has been fortunate, there being few cases here and they are being cared for.— Harrisburg Pa triot. THEY WANT TO TELL These Grateful Women Who Have Been Helped by Mrs. Pinkham. Women who have suffered severely and been relieved of their ills by Mrs. Pinkham's advice and medicine are constantly urging publication of their statements for the benefit of other wo men. Here are two such letters: Mrs. LIZZIE BEVERI.Y, 258 Mcrrimao St., Lowell, Mass., writes: " It affords me great pleasure to tell all suffering women of the benefit I have received from taking Lydia E. Pink linra's Vegetable Compound. I can hard ly-find words to express my gratitude for what she has done forme. My trouble was ulceration of the womb. I was un der the doctor's care. Upon examina tion he found fifteen very large ulcers, buthefailedtodome good. I took sev eral bottlesof Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege table Compound, also used the Sanative Wash, and am cured. Mrs. Pinkham's medicine saved my life, and I would recommend it to all Buffering women." Mrs. AMOS TROMHLKAY, Ellenburgh Ctr., N. Y.. writes: " I took cold at the time my baby was born, causing me to have milk legs, and was sick in bed for eight weeks. Doctors did me no good. I surely thought I would die. I was al so troubled with falling of the womb. I could not eat, had faint spells as often as ten times a day. One day a lady came to see me and told me of the benefit she had derived from taking Lydia E. Pinkham's medicine, and ad vised me to try it. I did so, and had taken only half a bottle before I was able to sit in a chair. After taking three bottles I could do my own work. I am now in perfect health."
