Republican State Convention !
Uig. '_M.
This great big nation is boom- !
ing and calamity howlers are not ;
in force now.
The New Nation and the Old Fourth.
One year ago the Spa nish war j
reached its climax, and the Ameri
can navy at Santiago completed
the work started by Dewey at
Manila two months before. It is
doubtful whether for a long time
to come the Nation will feel the
same thrill that pervaded it then,
for from one end of the land to the
other the quickening impulse of a
new life was known to be stirring.
Dimly and without analyzing it,
ali understood that a new nation
was being born from the elements
that had composed the old one. A
broader American manhood was
leaping into life and the day which
commemorated the advent of the
child one hundred and twenty-two
years before marked the passage
from swaddling clothes and short
trousers to the full privileges and
responsibilities of manhood.
It is no idle whim to compare
the growth of this nation to that
of a man. In a far more serious
way than most of us imagine that
analogy hold good. When this
country interfered with Spain in
h< r management of the Cuban
question, by that very act it as
sumed the responsibily of solving
the questions and problems that
would grow out of Ihe changed
situation. No longer relying on
other nations to do what was right
ia the premises, this country vol
untary gave bonds that right would
be done and the present Fourth of
July finds u.- bringing to a close
the various tasks that have con
fronted us. The lititle American
with liis small patriotism and bis
s! : rtsiL'btednesr has not appreci
ated the va'st results that have
air ndy been accomplished but
those who have gone deeper into
the heart of things know that be
tween to-day and this date last
year the nation lias taken a most
tremendous stride forward.
it is well to remember the asso
ciations that cluster so thickly
around the inception of the day,
but it is far better to call to mind
what this year and this generation
have done to make the day of
greater significance than ever. The
task set by the founders of the
Nation in 177<» has been more than
accomplished. The people carried
out the plans then laid down for
their guidance, but the time came
when the Nation growing too large
for its cramped conditions stretched
itself and burst the restraining
bonds with ease. The outcome
lias been a new nation and a un
ite! one, with ideas and aspirations
that were scarcely dreamed of be
fore.
In one year, from Fourth of July
to Fourth of July, we have moved
from the position of a self-restrain
■ self-interest d an-i si'lf-distrust
ful people to a Nation ready to
take its full share of the responsi
bilities and profits of the world's
work. Thus while it is really the
old day that we celebrate it is a
New Nation that is doing the cele
l.it ing. —Philadelphia Inquirer.
Kicks said that July will open with
112; r weather, warmer about the third,
storms from 3rd to sth, followed by
cool weather after the 7th. About the
1 !h to 10th very warm weather and
B'.'.inmer storms, with light ftorins
during the balance of the month, ac
companied hy blustering winds, light
ning and thunder.
Persons troubled with diarrhoea will
be interested in the experience of Mr.
V/. M. Bush, clerk of Hotel Dorraiice,
Providence, R. I Ho says:"For
several vears 1 have been almost a
o.istant sufferer* from] diarrhoea, the
frequent attacks completely prostrating
Ei and rendering mc unfit for my
duties at thialiotc l . About two years
ago a traveling salesman kindly gave
me a small bottle of Chamberlain's
C .tic, Cholera and . )iar : Remedy.
J i.'h to my -urpri • :ind delight its
elects were immediate. Whenever 1
felt symptoms of the disease I would
112. rtify myself against the attack with a
ft,, doses of this valuable remedy. The
result has been very satisfactory and
almost complete relief from tho afflic
tion." For sale by L. Taggart. July
WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From our Regular Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, July 10th. 1899.
President McKinley has too
much confidence in Americon and
English common sense to share the
fears expressed in some quarters,
that the failure to agree on a boun
dry line between Alaska and Can
ada. which seems likely to result
from Canada's attempt to play the
grab game, will result in any break
of the pleasant relations of the U.
8. and Great liritain. lb- realizes
that the failure to agree will be the
cause of considerable irritation,
and possibly of some disputed ter
ritory, but does not believe that it;
will dangerously involve the two
governments.
I'he President is devoting much j
of his time to the selection of ofli
cers for the new volunteer regi
ment, and hopes to complete the
list this week. Gov. Roosevelt
spent a day and night in Washing
ton. upon the President's invitation
for the purpose of giving his advice
in regard lo the appointment of
some of these officers. The present
expectation is that the new regi
ments will all be in service by
Aug. 15. as the recruiting, which
| was started to-day will be rapidly
j pushed in all sections.
Ex-Congressman <ieo. 11. Davis,
of 111., lias not been in politics
actively for some time, but lie
keeps a close watch on things in
his State and is regarded as an
authority. Of the political out
look he said: "We elect a Gover
nor in lUOO, and being a Presiden
tial year, the Republican party will
have a great advantage, seeing that
the State ticket will almost surely
carry with the success of the Na
tional ticket. The two will go
together. There is scarcely a doubt
of the continuance of Illinois in the
Republican column."
Ex-Senator Brown and Hon.
Jesse Smith, of ( tab, are in Wash
ington trying to get official per
mission for the people of north
western 1 'tali to pasture their sheep
ion the l inta reservation, embrac
ing S7~»,000 acres, which was set
apart as a forestry reservation
under the last Cleveland adminis
| t rat ion. Mr. Prown said on the
| subject : ' People wonder at crime
in the western country, and yet
I these immense reservations, cover
j ing thousands of acres, are left as
j regular hid ing places for cut-throats
of every character. These reserva
tions, and especially those in the
far West, have practically no police
| protection, and it can be readily
j seen that if the government would
permit their use for pasturing our
sheep, this would give the reserva
tion protection that it would not
j otherwise get." Speaking of
politics Mr. Brown said that
! Uryanism was rapidly dying in the
West and predicted that President
McKinley would receive the elec
toral votes of I tali and Colorado.
•There is neither surprise nor
alarm in official circles on account
[ of the few eases of yellow fever
among our troops in Cuba. Sur
geon-General Sternberg, of the
army, said: •• We have anticipated
yellow fever among the troops and
i prepared for it, and never expected
| to get through the occupation 'of
the island without some cases of
the disease. Maj. Gen. Brooke
understands the situation. He lias
! as his chief surgeon a competent
officer, and anything called for by
him will be immediately sent.
That there may be plenty of sur
geons available, additional immune
surgeons have been ordered to re
port to I>r. O' lioilly.' *
Col. Henderson received a warm
welcome from his numerous Wasli
| ington friends, during his stay of
| several days in the city. Neither
1 his successful Speakership cam
! paign. nor the shoving up, by
newspaper writers, of his military
title to ''General," which seems to
j have been at once accepted by the
public in general—lion. Thos. J.
Henderson, who represented the
seventh Illinois district in the
; House from the -14 th to the rd
Congress. was breveted Brigadier
j General in the Civil War. but Hon.
I). 15. Henderson never got higher
in rank than Col. of the itith lowa
; infantry—has made the slightest
j change in him. He greeted all his
I friends from President McKinley
down to the humblest private eiti
j zen, in the same whole-souled way
that has made him one of the most
i popular men who ever sat in Con
! gress, and which probably also
! made him sure of becoming Speaker
| of the House.
Spam's Greatest Need.
Mr. R. P. Olivia, of Barcelona, Spain,
: spends his winters at Aiken, S. <!.
1 Weak nerves had caused him severe
pains in the back of lis liead. On
using Electric Bitters, America's great
est blood and nerve remedy, all pain
! soon left him. He says this grand
I medicine is what his country needs.
All America knows that it cures liver
and kidney trouble, purifies the blood,
tones up the stomach, strengthens the
nerves, puts vim, vigor and new life
into every muscle, nerve and organ of
the body. If weak, tired or ailing you
need it. Every bottle guaranteed,
only 50 cents. Sold by L. Taggart,

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JULY 13, 1899.
ALL AROUND THE COUNTY.
Cameron.
It was rather quiet around Cameron
on the Fourth, as most of our towns
men were enjoying themselves else

Bkn.
Slnnemahonlng.
The Sinnemahoning Liars Club that !
was booked togo fishing on the Fourth j
failed to materialize owing to C. W.
Beldin and J. V. Hanscom having
sprained their backs in a contest with
Pap Berfield and Harvey Smith, but
Wyside "Juniors" tilled the engage
ment successfully. Pap Blodget caught
two bass and one smelt, and got away
with his share of ''snake bite" The
"Juniors" wili hold a meeting to-night
to initiate a few applicants, JackCafrey
and Hank Shade and a few more who
have been on probation. W. H.
Michaels was fined one bottle of beer
for not, having told a lie in three days.
Harry Decker, our grand chief prevari
cator, proposes to match our noble
talent against Wm. McDonald and
Fritz Seger for a quart of gin. Smike
Blinzler, who has won distinction as
George Siler 11, will referee, and will
receive a smell of the gin and a bite of
Lemberger to eradicate any bad taste
in his mouth resulting from rank de
cisions. Frank Buck will be balloted
upon and, if favorable, will be slid in
on a rail and stood on his head in the
spitoon until thoroughly seasoned. He
will make a good member, and, being
an experienced chaperon, he can beat
! George Skinner all hollow in conduct
ing strangers to rattlesnake dens.

M. R, Hellyor has added to his farm
a Buckeye Mowing machine, ahorse
rake, a top buggy, a shovel plow, a
harrow, eleven swarms of bees, a bar

twenty-live pounds.
There will be no such a place as
Buckwalter after July 15th. Our post
office will then be discontinued and
thereafter our town will be known by
the station name "Howard Siding."
We are very sorry our postmaster
gave it u]>, but he says ho did not
make his salt and the postoflicebother
ed him so he could not enjoy the
flavor of the salt he did get.

There never wan a man yet who I
found it to a disadvantage to learn a
trade, and a person with an occupation
is independent, for he is then able to
earn his living by his skill. Boys !
should be given trades no matter how
well off they may expect to be, for I
there is no certainty but adversity may
overtake them. Clerks who are em- j
ployed behind a counter measuring off
goods, in which work there is no exer- |
cise for the muscle or brain and to the I
great mass of them no outlook toward j
anything higher or better, they are the j
ones who bitterly regret that they did
not learn some trade which would j
command them better wages and make
them independent, and not subject to j
the fluctuating fortunes of this or that
business house where they can be em- j
ployed.—Ex.

Thankful words written by Mrs. Ada
E. Hart, of flroton, S. D. "Was taken
with a bad cold which settled on my !
lungs; cough set in and finally tcrrnin- j
ated in Consumption. Four doctors
gave me up saving I could live but a
short time. I gave myself up to my
Savior, determined if I could not stay
with my friends on earth, I would
meet my absent ones above. My hus
band was advised to get Dr. King's
New Discovery for Consumption,
Coughs and Colds. J gave it a trial,
took in all eight bottles. It has cured
me, and thank God, I am saved and
now a well and healthy woman."
