the next house will be men who are
not now servinging congress, the num

the new representatives have had
legislative experience in former eon

other state, the number being 18.
Pennsylvania is second on the list with

THKY allow women to wear male at
tire in France, but they are taxed for
the privilege. The I-'rench government
charges women $lO to $12.50 per year
for wearing the trousers. This how
ever, does not give every woman who
is willing to pay the tax a right to
wear such garments. The government
confers the right as a tribute to great
merit, and makes it in fact, a sort of
decoration given to women, its the ril>-
bon of the legion of honor is given to
men.
TIIK most decorated man in Europe
probably is Count August of Eulen

who has o:> decorations. This record
■was not even equaled by the late
Prince Bismarck, who had only 54 dec

much decorated man, had 44. Among
living men, (Jen. von Hahnke comes
after Count August of Eulenberg, with
a totiil of 52 decorations. He is fol
lowed by Prince Albreeht of Prussia*
who has 44.
MRS. WIIJ.IAM ASTOR has a collection
of diamonds worth a fortune. But the
finest diamond in the world belongs, it
is said, to Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt. It
is a tiny affair, weighing one karat,
yet it cost her husband $5,000. As the
value of a diamond increases in an in
creasing ratio with its weight, up to a
moderate size, the Vanderbilt brilliant,
if as large as the Koh-i-Noor (102 ,'4 ka
rats) would be worth about $3,800,000.

A MEDICAL scientist is authority for
the statement that children and old
people especially suffer fnun a lack of
lime in the system. Persons who hal>-
itually drink soft water, while they
may enjoy immunity from certain of
the ills of life, expose themselves to
others perhaps quite as much to be
avoided. Hard water helps the teeth
and the bones by furnishing lime,
•which is necessary to health, growth
and development. Old persons who
drink but little lose their teeth more
quickly than those who take a reason
able amount of drinking water.

THE FUTURE OF SILVER.
A I-eeeon for Client* Money Admeatfi
In the l.ate Klec
tlona.
There is no mistaking the significance
of the fall election in its. relation to the
democratic party ns a national organi
zation which will not participate in an
other general election for congressmen
and legislative or state officers general
ly until the presidential battle of 1900.
The results of the voting tend, greatly
to strengthen, consolidate and enforce
the power of the radical free silver
element, predominant in Chicago in
1896. and now certain to be in control
at the national convention of 1900.
Briefly summarized, the results in the
south were more decisively favorable to
democratic candidates than any similar
elections have been since populism
threatened democratic local supremacy
in many southern states. The popu
lists are again voting the democratic
ticket, and the price of their continued
alliance is adhesion to the radical prin
ciples enunciated in the presidential
election in the Chicago platform —the
crime of '9O.
In those of the eastern states in which
a serious effort has been made, as in
Connecticut, to attract the honest
money candidates to the party whose
allegiance they foreswore two years
ago. it has failed utterly. In the states
in which the policy of evasion of na
tional issues has been followed. New
York. New Jersey and Maryland, there
has been no gain in consequence. In
Massachusetts and Illinois, where the
Bryan democracy reiterated its pur
poses as declared at Chicago, its candi
dates did better than they did
a year ago. In the far west, in< Colorado,
Utah and Idaho, what measure of suc
cess the democratic candidates>attained
was due chiefly to the aid of silver re
publicans; and it does not appear from
the returns from any state that the sil
verites, whether democrats, populists
or republicans, have any mistrust of the
sincerity of the democratic organiza
tion in its temporary muffled.advocacy
of radical policies, or tlint the honest
money voters of the country, demo
crats, republicans or independents—
there are no hrnest-money populists—
had, or have, a particle of confidence
in the professions made by some dem
ocratic orators of their disavowal of
silverite predilections and purposes.
The effect of the elections has been,
briefly, to tighten party lines with even
greater firmness than was the cn.se two
years ago. The national democrats, i
so called, have been eliminated entirely.
They now vote the republican ticket or
they vote the democratic ticket. The
middle-of-the-road populists, and there
were nearly 230,000 of them in 1890, are
again in the fold of the fusionists. In
the south, the southwest and in the
mountain states, the populists and
democrats preponderate; in the east
ern, middle, middle western' and Pacific
states, the republican party is the party
of the majority. There are no visible
recruits to the democratic standard to
be secured by abandonment of the prin
ciples to which the party, as a national
organiziition, is committed; there is
the certainty of serious and positive
losses in any attempted' abandonment
of the issues of two years ago.
Unquestionably, the present eco
nomic conditions, as well as the polit
ical relations of the two parties toward
each other, the prestige of republican
victory and the demoralization of the
opposing forces, make almost hopeless
for the democracy the renewal of the
battle of two years ago; but. be the out
look propitious or discouraging, the
lesson of the late election is unmistak
ably clear: The democratic party is
committed irrevocably to the issues of
189 C.—X. Y. Run.
Ilryanitcn Should Notice.
In the states of New York. Pennsyl
vania. Massachusetts, New Jersey and
Maryland, where the democrats did all
Ihey could, as a rule, to get away from
the silver question this year, they
gained 20 seats in the house of repre
sentatives. In New York they cut a re
publican plurality of 208,000 in the pres
idential election down to about 20,000.
In New Jersey, the reduction was from
87,000 to 5.000, and in Massachusetts,
where there was more talk of silver,
from 173,000 to 83,000. In Pennsylvania
the change was from 295,000 to about
150,000 at best. The opposition was di
vided. Maryland was republican by 32,-
COO in 1896. This year it is close. If Col.
Bryan and his followers will give these
facts their earnest attention, in connec
tion with the very different returns
from states like Kansas, Nebraska,
South Dakota. Wyoming, Washington
and California, where their party stuck
to silver as the one great issue, perhaps
they miy gain light enough to lead
them to give the business world rest
from inflation alarms for the next
deeade or so.—Cleveland Leader.
True Patriot*.
The democrats have no luck at all in
claiming all the national heroes as par
tisans. Dewey, of Manila fame, turns
out to be a republican, as is perfectly
natural for a born and bred Vermonter.
Admiral Schley says:"l am not a
democrat; neither am I a republican.
My polities is my country." And that
is good enough polities for any fighting
man. Gen. Merritt says he is some
thing of a democrat, but is glad tha
country is sustaining the administra
tion, because McKinley is right. "Joe"
Wheeler is a democrat who forgets pol
itics when chasing Spaniards. And
Hobson is a democrat, though he has
been too busy serving the nation lately
to pay any attention to politics.' As a
whole, the war outfit seems content to
leave government matter's in repub
lican hands, wholly satisfied with the
way things are done.—Troy Times.
ETThe silver mine owners will not
probably retain a lobby in Washington
tny longer, and the few orators scat
'pred about under the name of silver
epublicans will not be retained on the
,»ay roll.— Indianapolis Journal.
CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1898.
ISSUES OF 1900.
What Form of Oppoaltlon the Dlm
urrntx Will Advocate la Hard
to Drtermlne.
The suggestion comes from Ohio, and
is said to be indorsed by Senator llanna,
that national expansion rather than
free silver is likely to be the issue in
1900i Isn't it a little early to be fore
casting the next presidential race,
either as to eandiates, platforms or re
sults? We are making important his
tory rapidly, and it was never more true
than now that no man can tell what a
day, or a year, may bring forth.
Free silver has undoubtedly received
a heavy blow. The changes in the west
arc extraordinary, and are to be as
cribed to that issue alone. In 1806 the,
silver men controlled the senate. They
therefore had but to secure the house
and r'ne presidency in the campaign of
that year to write their issue into law.
It will be different in 1900. The senate
then will contain an anti-silver ma
jority. So that immediate success
would not be in sight even with the
house and the presidency won for sil
ver. This, and the change of sentimert
in the west, must have its effect in 1900.
Hut one should hesitate to dig t he grave
and provide the ceremonies for silver
yet awhile.
But. counting silver out, what form
will the issue of national expansion
take in 1900? The expectation now is
that the peace commission will make
a treaty providing for the conquered
Spanish territory in time to be sub
mitted to the senate at its coming ses
sion. Reasonably prompt action there
ought to follow. The matter is one that
cannot with safety be allowed to re
main too long unsettled. At farthest,
it is not likely to remain open longer
than early spring. And when the treaty
is ratified the issue of national expan
sion as now understood and accepted
will be closed. We shall then be in pos
session of Porto luieo, Hawaii, Guam
and the Philippines in our own right,
and of Cuba as trustee for the people of
that island. That will represent the
policy of national expansion. What is
sue can be made on that a year later?
Who will seel* power on a proposition
to undo it all and return to the main
land?
As matters are going it is n far cry
to 1900. Sound money and national ex
pansion seem safe enough, and thejvres
ident is one of the most popular men
ever installed in that exalted office. lint
what form the opposition will take, or
who is likely to lead it. may rot with
ease be determined now.—Washington
Star.
A GREAT SENATE.
There AVi 11 lie- n Controlling Mnjorlfy
Agnlnut the Free Sil
ver Ilcrenj'.
After March 4 the republicans will
have 53 of the 5)0 senators, which will
leave 37 to the democrats and populists.
For the first time since the free coin
age of silver became an issue because
silver bullion had fallen in price, there
will be an actual and controlling ma
jority against that heresy. It is quite
as important that the changes which
have mode the senate surely republican
result from the fact that both senators
from the states largest in population
and richest in material resources will
be republicans. Iloth senators from In
diana. New York, Pennsylvania, New
Jersey, Ohio, Illinois, Michigan, Cali
fornia and Wisconsin will be repub
licans. From the Atlantic to the Missis
sippi river, and from the Ohio and Ma
son and Dixon's line to the lakes, no
state will have a democratic senator.
Kven Maryland atid West Virginia will
have two. and Delaware and Kentucky
one each of the republican faith. Mis
souri. Georgia and Texas will be the
only larger states that will be repre
sented by democrats in the senate.
The opposition to the republican party
has little to hope from the group of
states in which senatorial vacancies oc
cur in 1901 after the presidential elec
tion, judging from their voting at the
late elections, as a clear majority of the
30 senators to be elected that year rep
resent states which are carried by re
publicans this year. Thus silverism
seems to be balked in the senate for
years to come.
During the past six or eight years,
it cannot be said that either responsible
party could claim a majority. For six
teen to cue there was a majority, but
beyond that question no party had such
a lead in the senate as to be really re
sponsible for its conduct. The impor
tant finance committee has been in the
lands of the silverites. and other lead
ing committees which shape legisla
tion have been so divided as to be with
out power. This uncertainty as to par
ties has been responsible for the dis
satisfaction of the country with the
senate. Now that the republicans will
have an assured majority ol' orthodox
republicans, may not the country ex
pect to see more definite action and less
delay?—lndianapolis Journal.

Washington, Dee. 1. —The members
of the commission delegated to visit
the I'nited States to discuss with offi
cials of ttiis government the problems
which confront both Cubans and
Americans on the island arrived in
Washington last evening from New
York. The commission is headed by
Calixto (iareia, the veteran soldier.
With him on the commission are .lose
Home/., who won distinction in the
late revolution; Manuel Kanguilly,
Jose Lanuza and Jose 11. Villalon, a
civil engineer who served on the staff
of Maceo. Villalon is the secretary
of the commission.
It is the purpose of the commission
to discuss with the officials of the ad
ministration all questions relating to
the future of the island and its peo
ple. One of the principal questions
will be that relating to the disposi
tion of the Cuban army. In an inter
view (iareia said it would be a hard
ship for the Cuban army to disband
at this time without receiving pay for
its services in the field. When the
revolution began the Cubans left their
homes to fight f<y the freedom of the
island. Through the assistance of the
United States the yoke of Spain has
been thrown off forever and the sol
diers are now anxious to return to
peaceful pursuits. In a majority of
cases, however, their homes have been
destroyed and their land laid waste.
They hope some method may be pro
vided whereby they may be given
sufficient means to gain a new start
in life. Garcia expresses the hope of
obtaining, through the assistance of
this country, a sufficient amount part
ly to reimburse the Cubans for their
services in the field. This sum may
be advanced on the security of the
Cuban revenues or obtained in any
other way that might be satisfactory
to this country.
Garcia says the Cuban government
stands pledged to pay its soldiers and
will in good faith live up to any
agreement that may be made for the
adjustment of the temporary difficul
ty. Concerning the proposition which
lias been made to annex the island to
the I'nited States, (iareia said: "I
do not think that is a question which
can be discussed or settled at present,
because the congress of the I'nited
States has declared that the people of
Cuba ought to be free and independ
ent. I have such faith in the honor
of the I'nited States that 1 am satis
fied that declaratirfn of congress will
be carried out. Other things are mat
ters of time and detail."

Philadelphia, Dee. I.—State Senatoi
Perry A. Gibson, of the Erie county
district, yesterday met Gov. Hastings
at the Stratford hotel in this city a tit]
laid before him a petition which the
senator had received from inmates ol
the soldiers' and sailors' home at Erie.
Pa. The petition prayed the senatoi
to take steps to recover for thera
money which they had received from
the national government and which
they allege has been illegally taker
from them by the trustees of the in
stitution at Erie. Tly. petition if
signed by 100 inmates of the home.
The method of taking this money
from the old soldiers, the petition
alleges, is a rule adopted by the trus
tees of the institution which compels
Ilii' inmates to turn over to the home
all pension money received in excess
of $4 per month, on penalty of dis
charge.
The petitioners say they are In
formed that this money is placed in
fhe hands of Louis Wagner, of Phila
delphia, treasurer of the board ol
trustees of the lion#, and that it is
used in extending relief to dependent
relatives of pensioners in the home.
The petitioners say they have no de
pendent relatives and that the money
is taken without any apparent design
o.f using it for any purpose, either foi
the benefit of the home, relatives, or
inmates themselves.
A REINFORCEMENT.

Washington, Dec. 1. —Lord Stratli
eona, Canadian commissioner to Don
don, arrived here last night to join
the ranks of the Anglo-Americans in
session here. As commissioner to Lon
don, Lord Strathcpna is in a position
to reflect the views of both the Eng
lish and Canadian authorities.
"I am here while the present com
mission meets," lie said, "as I was
when the last commission met in
Washington 28 years ago to settle the
Alabama claims, and all other con
troversies growing out of the civil
wat. That commission brought about
splendid results in removing every
possibility of trouble between the two
governments, and with the warm feel
ing now existing between the Eng
lish speaking people on both sides of
the water 1 am most hopeful that the
present commission will remove the
last vestige of contention between the
United States, England and Canada."
The commission held a joint session
yesterday,resulting iji much progress.
The desire to conclude work and
frame the final treaty is shown by a
proposition presented for nisht. ses
sions. This was vetoed, as night work
would not at present materially expe

Paris, Xov. 29.—Spain has accepted
the United States' offer of $20,000,000
and at a joint session of the peace
commissions on Monday consented
without condition to relinquish Cuba
and to cede Porto Rico, Guam and the
Philippine islands.
The document presenting this accept
ance contained only 300 words. It
opened with a reference to the final
terms of the United States and said
the Spanish commissioners, after hav
ing taken cognizance of the terms pro
posed by the Americans, replied that
their government had tried to give as
equitable an answer as possible, but
they were not prepared to commit their
government to the acceptance of the
principles embodied in the American
argument. Spain rejects these princi
ples, the note continues, "as she has
always rejected them." Basing her at
titude upon the justice of her cause,
the note then says that she still ad
heres to these principles "which she
had heretofore invariably formulated."
However, the note adds, in her de
sire for peace she has gone so far as to
propose certain compromises which
the Americans have always rejected.
She has also attempted, it is further
asserted, to have submitted to arbitra
tion some of the material particulars
upon which the two governments dif
fered. These proposals for arbitration,
it is added, the Americans had reject
ed. These allegations in Spain's reply,
as to attempted arbitration, refer to
her proposal to arbitrate the construc
tion of the third article of the protocol
and also to submit the Spanish colonial
debt of Cuba and the Philippines to
arbitration. The last proposition was
made in a written communication.
Since its presentation, and in return
for such arbitration, Spain offered to
cede the territory in dispute. The
Americans refused both propositions
for arbitration. Spain's reply yester
day in substance continued by declar
ing that the United States has offered,
as a kind of compensation to Spain,
something very inadequate to the sac
rifices the latter country makes.
Spain has, however, exhausted all
the resources of diplomacy in an at
tempt to justify her attitude. Seeing
that an acceptance of the proposal
made to Spain is a necessary condition
to a continuance of negotiations, and
seeing that the resources of Spain are
not such as to enable her to re-enter
upon war, she is prepared in her de
sire to avoid bloodshed and from con
siderations of humanity and patriot
ism to submit to the conditions of the
conquering' nation, however harsh
they may be. She is, therefore, ready
to accept the proposals of the Ameri
can commission as presented at the
last sitting.
The reading and translation of the
document occupied less than five min
utes. At the conclusion of the trans
lation the commissioners empowered
Senor Ojeda, secretary of the Spanish
commission, and Secretary Moore, of
the American commission, to draw up
articles which are to embody the re
linquishment of Cuba by Spain and the
cession of I'orto liico and the Philip
pines.
Paris, Dec. I.—The joint peace com
mission devoted two hours and a half
yesterday to drafting the three lirst
articles of the peace treaty protocol,
dealing with tlie cession of Cuba,
I'orto Itieo and the Philippines, upon
which the commissioners agreed in
principle. A general discussion on
the other articles followed, but no
decision was reached and the joint
commission adjourned until to-day.
There were 13 articles laid before
the two commissions, covering the fol
lowing subjects:
I—The relinquishment of sovereign
ty over and claim of title to Cuba.
2—The cession of I'orto Itieo and
other Spanish possessions in the West
Indies, together with Guam in the
Ladrones.
3—The cession of the Philippines.
4 -The terms of the evacuation of
the Philippines.
s—The5 —The pledge of the United States
to preserve order in the Philippines
pending the ratification of the treaty.
6 —The mutual release of military
prisoners.
7—The cession by Spain of the isl
and of Kusae, or Strong island, in the
Carolines.
B—The mutual relinquishment of
indemnity claims.
9 —Tin- religious freedom of the
Carolines, assuring the rights of
American missionaries there.
10—Cable landing rights at points
within the Spanish jurisdiction.
11—The release by Spain of politi
cal prisoners for offenses in Cuba and
the Philippines.
12—The pledge of the United States
to inaugurate in the Philippines an
"open door" policy and to guarantee
the same to Spain for at least 12
yea rs.
13—A revival of the treaties broken
by the war.
Daily sessions will be held hereaf
ter, and it is now believed that the
work may be possibly concluded this
week, although so early a termination
is not probable.

iMWeiig
!Many persons have their good
day and their bad day. Others
are about half sick all the time.
They have headache, backache,
and are restless and nervous.
Food does not taste good, and
the digestion is poor; the skin
is dry and sallow and disfigured
with pimples or eruptions;
sleep brings no rest and work
Is a burden.
What is the cause of all this?
Impure blood.
And the remedy?
It clears out the channels
through which poisons are
carried from the body. When
all impurities are removed from -TSTj
the blood nature takes right hold Egg**
and completes the cure. VW
If there is constipation, take Va
Ayer's Pills. They awaken the Ea
drowsy action of the liver; they Eg
cure biliousness. |?
