Potto Rican Editor's Opinion.
In Us Issue of Soptemhor 2Kth, 18!)8,
the "La Noeva Era," published at
Ponce, Porto Rico, nays:
"The moHt thut can happen Is that
one hundred or two hundred thousand
Americans of the United States, attract
ed hy the buuuty of tho country, the
mildness of the climate, and the hos
pltablo and attractive character of the
Portoriqueninns, may come In search of
their particular fortunes and to co-operate
In tho development of our agricult
ural, Industrial nnd commercial riches;
and far from sV-elng In this a peril, we
would see a benefit for the country,
which would profit by the concourse of
active and enterprising men, accustomed
to a life of what is right and of liberty,
as well as the highest respect for the
laws.
Such immigration would be highly
beneficial to Porto Rico, the ethnologi
cal conditions of which in course of
time, would Improve considerably by
Intermarriages between the old and tho
new race; a fnet which always brings as
a result an equilibrated type, most fa
vorable for the diverse phases of the
progress, and the legitimate purposes
of human activity.
Besides tho natural motives, owing to
the small extent of the Island, there Is,
that in it, the immigration may not ex
ceed certain limits, for we have to cal
culate that it is not the same to go from
one territory to another situated in the
same continent, as to go from that con
tinent to an island situated at a certain
distance. From what we have said is
Inferred thut the fears of absorption
and predomination may be qualified as
ridiculous as well as puerile, when once
the general laws which bind together
the states of the American Union are
in full operation here.
The Great Republic has two great
Interests here, which constitute their
prinoipal motives for action.
One is the interest of glory and of at
traction, to demonstrate that their in
stitutions are the best bond to unite in
timately and fraternally the people
without the necessity of dominating
them by arguments "ad terrorora." The
example of what they will do in Porto
Rico, if as we expect it, meets with
good and great success, their labors in
this Island, and the logical deduction
that from that success will be derived,
will be of irresistible force for the ul
terior aggrandizement of a Ropublic,
which from its foundation has never
seen its flag humiliated, and that no
where protects other ideals than those
of right and liberty.
The other interest is that of increas
ing here great rlohes that at the same
. time that it distributes among the in
habitants an ample welfare, may extend
the sphere of action of the industries
and commerce of the Americans, with
out taking any undue advantage, pursu
ing a policy of reciprocal and harmon
ious Interests. It is obvious to say the
great profits that our Island will derive."
The Clearfield Spirit and Rldgway
Democrat say: "The postal department
has Just sent out a new ordor affecting
postoffice box rents. The holders of
boxes must now prepay for the same
before the 10th of each quarter, that is
before the 10th of January, April, July
and October. Failure to do this com
pels the postmaster to deolare all such
boxes vacant and to place the mall of
such persons in the general delivery."
The Reynoldsvllle postmaster informed
a representative of Thk Star that that
is an old ordor here.
Thursday afternoon of last week the
SpanUh Peace Commissioners gave up
their strugglo to induce the Americans
to accept the resitonslulllty for the Cu
ban dobt and agreed that the article in
the protocol shall pass unchanged into
the treaty.

average married woman's face should

Yellow Jaundice Cured.
Buffering humanity should be sup
plied with every means possible for its
relief. It is with pleasure we publish
the following: "This Is to certify that
I was terrible sufferer from Yellow

Claude Smith for Assembly.
I Advert Isement.
Claude Smith should be supported by
every miner, laborer and farmer lu
Jefferson county. For many years the
legislature of Pennsylvania has been
composed almost entirely of lawyers,
doctors and editors. By accident, or
the mistakes of tho politicians a farmer
may once in a long time becomo a mem
ber; hilt tho laborer so seldom that he
may be said to be not at all.
Most of these professional men do not
care at all for, the laborer except to
get his vote, nnd the few who honestly
want to help him don't know what we
want.
For tho last fourteen years Jefferson
county has boen represented, or misrep
resented, in tho legislature by profes
sional men. This stato of things is our
own fault, for there are minors and la
borers enough in the county to elect any
man to any place.
From the time Claude Smith was fif
teen years old he hits earned his bread
by the sweat of his brow. He knows
what wo want, and what we ought to
have. He was not nominated by any
ring, and Is free to act In our interest
without asking his political bosses what
they want him to do. He is opposed by
a lawyer who knows vory little about us
and cares loss.
If the minors and laborers don't elect
Clnudo Smith, no one of them should
ever have tho face to stand up and say
that wo do not get our rights from the
lawmakers. A Lahorino Man. -

Hot Stun.
As a matter of course the American
army was not in Porto Rico long before
It began to look for something to drink.
Tho soldiers found liquor for sale in
every store, but it was in most cases
Porto Rico rum, which is distilled from
sugar cane, and is a commercial product
of the island. Those who were athlrst
tackled the rum boldly at first, but
charily afterwards.
One of the boys relates the experience
of a companion who called for adrink In
a store, where the liquor was sold. The
native merchant poured out a generous
glass of rum, and tho soldier tossed it
off as he would so much corn whiskey.
But the effect wag difforent. The fiery
liquid burned all the way down like' so
much molten lead, and contiued to siz
zlo in the bottom of the soldier's stom
ach. He clawed the air frantically,
danced a juber, and choked and gasped
until only the whites of his eyes were
Visible. His first articulation after he
had recovered his breath a little was a
hoarse appeal for water, which the na
tive finally produced after he could be
made to understand that it was a neces
sary adjunct.
"I brought back a bottle of that Porto
Rico rum,'' said a returned soldier,' "for
the special benefit of a friend who is a
connoisseur on liquor. I nevor knew
him to take adrink but what he would
first taste the contents of his glass, crit
ically, and declare that tho liquor bad
been watered. I'm anxious to see if
he'll say that rum is watered after ho
takes a swallow." Brockwayville Jffc-ord.

Is the true remedy. It is no loss effective than
