There is ko-'poison so highly contagious,
so deceptive and so destructive. Don’t be
too sure you are cured because all external
signs of the disease have disappeared, and
the doctor says you are well. • Many per-

the. only antidote for this peculiar virus,
the only remedy known that can over-
come it and drive it out of the blood, and
it does this so thoroughly and e.Tectually
that there is never a return of the disease
to embarrass or humiliate you afterwards.

MEMBERS CLAIMS.
up to 16 of the Dutch stand-
ard manufactured in Cuba bo ad-
mitted free of all duties.
They also desire that tobacco
leaf grown in Cuba, on being im-
ported into this country, pay a
duty of $1 per pound if classified
as wrappers, and that unspecified
unstemmed fillers pay 20 cents
per pound. They also desire that
cigars, cigarettes and clieroots of
of all sorts manufactured in < uba
be subjected to a duty of $2 50
per pound, and that the present
additional tax of 25 cents ad va-
lorem be suppressed altogether.
They desire further that a re-
duction of 40 percent be made on
alcohol, spirits, and rums, the by-
products of sugar cane, and on
preserves, sweetmeats, and sweets
manufactured in Cuba, and that
the same reduction be made on
Cuban fruits. They also ask that
no internal revenue tax or impost
annulling the concessions solicit-
ed be established in the United
States.
In the petition filed with the
president it is set forth that the
commercial situation in Cuba is
such that the remedies requested
admit of delay. If action on their
application is postponed until the
definite organization of an inde-
pendent government, no matter
how soon that government may
be organized, it will be impossi-
ble to calculate the detriment
such delay will cause, and the
crisis from which Cuba is suffer-
ing wijl seriously hamper the
progress of the new government.
The petition closes with an earn-
est appeal to the president to
take action, either by the consti-
tutional authority vested in him,
or by requesting congress to
grant the authority necessary to
aileviate the distress of Cuba. It
concludes by saying that the ne-
cessity of urgent and favorable
action is indispensable for the sal-
vation of the island.
The president listened to the
arguments of the Cubans and ex-
pressed the kindest feelings for
the people of the island and the
welfare of the future republic. He
said he bad already given the
matter full consideration in br
message, and added significantly
that he believed his treatment of
the subject would be fair and just.
Prom the White House the dele-
gates went to the war department
and had a brief conference with
Secretary Root.
The secretary was frank in say-
ing that he favors a reciprocal ar-
rangement by which Cuban sngar
and tobacco will come into the
United States at a lower duty
than that now imposed. He
promised to recommend such an
arrangement in his annual mes-
sage to the president. Iq doiDg
this he was approving the sug-
gestions of General Wood, who
declared that better trade rela-
tions are absolutely essential to
the continued existence of the is
land.
The delegates tbeu visited the
agricultural department and had
a leugthy conference with Secre-
tin y Wilson. It was eminently
satisfactory, as they fouud the
secretary in sympathy with them.
Altogether, the day was a good
one for the Qubans.

OH AH. B SLGAT,
THE PRESIDENT SAID TO
BE IN FAVOR OF A
RECIPROCITY
PLAN.
Washington—Cuban sugar and
tobacco will in all probability be
admitted into the United States
at a reduced rate of duty in ex-
change for the admission into
Onba without any duty whatever
of American flour and meat.
Reciprocity of this kind between
Cuba and the United States may
be a thing of the near future, es-
pecially as the Cubans are now
knocking hard at the door of
Uncle Sam for some relief from
the unsatisfactory commercial
conditions which exist in the is-
land. An extremely clever move-
ment on the part of congress, as
suggested by Senator Allison, will
undoubtedly be taken so as to
provide an outlet for Caban sugar
and tobacco and at the same time
expand the market for American
flour and meats.
Cuba produces neither of the
two commodities of which the
United States grows such a large
excess over the consumption and
for which the commerce of this
country is seeking an ontlet. This
scheme will be brought about by
congress of a law providing for an
exchange of the four commodities
in question. It will be drawn in
such a way as to apply to all coun-
tries, in order to obviate the vio-
lation of the favored nation clause.
In other words, all nations will
but put upon the same footing,
and those who produce tobacco
and sugar would, under this law,
be entitled to have their goods en-
tered into the United States at a
reduced rate of duty in exchange
for admitting American flour and
meats free of duty.
Of course, it would not be prac-
ticable for Germany or France, or
in fact any other European nation
to avail itself of the provisions of
this law, and Cuba would be ben-
efited and which could take ad-
vantage of it. Already there is
considerable opposition to lower
rates on Cuban sugar and tobacco,
but it is not believed this will be
strong enough to defsat the plan
now under consideration.
President Roosevelt was . wait-
ed upon recently by a delegation
of Cabans, who went into full de-
tails as to the financial distress of
the islanders. The delegates ap-
pealed to the president to recom-
mend such action as will relieve
the distress of the Oubans. The
delegation consisted of about a
| dozen CabaDS, who were sent to
Washington as a result of an econ-
omy campaign. They represent
the business and labor interests
j of the island, and politics does
i not enter into tfie errand which
I brought them to Washington;
j The question is a pqrely econom-
(ioal one, the purpose of which is
to improve the business situation
in Cuba.
After a general outline of ex
isiing conditions tbe delegates
presented a petition to the presi-
dent in which is set forth exactly
what the Cubans want. They de-
sire that molasses and raw sugars
the conditions in our state are not
excelled anywhere in the world.
Notwithstanding the excellent
condition of this new industry it
will not be able to thrive if the
present duty on sugar is reduced.
The sugar trust is trying to crush
out our new industry by clarnor-
iqg for the admission free of duty
of Cuban sugar. I do not be-
lieve they will succeed, however,
but there will be a tremendous fight
over the question at the coming
session. Another project which
will cause a bitter contest is the
ship subsidy bill.
“ In my judgment this measure
will become a law. There is still
a great deal of opposition to if,
but as neither party is solid for
the measure I believe enough
Republican and Democratic votes
can be mastered to push the
measure through. A Nicaraguan
canal will be authorized at this
session, as the new treaty with
Great Britain seems to be entirely
satisfactory to our government.
“ It is proper that the canal
should be neutral so far as other
governments are concerned when
they become involved in war.
Bota belligerents should be per-
mitted to use the canal. But
when the United States is a party
to a war, it should be. closed
against the other power. The only
justification for the construction
of this stupendous waterway is a
military one, as it will enable the
United States to get along with a
smaller navy. Commercially it
will not pay, at least for a great
many years.”
“ I jdo, not knotf whieh is the
worsi,” said Representative Bur-

Schley’s Noble Friend.
Baltimore fnn.
The naval drama which has fol-
lowed the battle of Santiago has
been filled with striking incidents
and interesting developments ap-
pealing forcibly to tbe popular
heart and imagination. It has a-
bounded on the side of the perse-
cuted officer, who forms its cen-
tral figure, in the heroic and un-
selfish elements that belong only
to true greatness and true patriot-
ism, and its closing scenes con-
tinue to reflect on all associated
in tbe defense of Rear Admiral
Schley the glory gained by the
American fleet in that memorable
victory. The modesty and self-
abnegation of the hero of Santia*
go have formed a pleasing sub-
ject of popular praise and written
plaudit, and it is gratifying to find
the same noble qualities exhibited
by another Marjlander, whose
name has been indissolubly linked
with the history of the battle
through his able and elcquent
championship of the rear admiral’s
cause. The story told in the Sun
today of Mr. Isidor Raynor’s re-
fusal to accept compensation
from Rear Admiral Schley for the
important legal services rendered
before the court of inquiry or the
slightest reimbursement for the
expense to which he was put in
connection with the case will gain
that advocate even greater ap-
plause than was aronsed by his
splendid forensic achievements in
behalf of his client. Mr. Raynor
gave not only his mind, but his
heatfc, to the case, and threw his
whole soul into it, with all the
chivalry and devotion of a gener-
ous nature, and the country at
large, no less than the people of
bis own state, will learn with un-
feigned admiration of his disinter-
ested and high-minded course.
Rear Admiral Schley’s apprecia-
tion of his friendship and generos-
ity are indicated by the bandsome
souvenirs sent to him by Mr.
Raynor and his wife, and to these
souvenirs the citizens of Mary-
land and the United States, with-
out distinction of party, will add
the tribute of their earnest respect
and commendation for tbe unself-
ish champion of truth, justice and
right. Maryland is proud of both
of ihese sons of hers. There is
glory enough, and to spare, for
both in a cause in which they are
henceforth inseparably united.

unces in that University, which is
not deficient in any respect as an
educator, who will be of more
value to them in their lives as
oit'zens of Texas than any they
would meet elsewhere. Qne of
tbe greatest advantages of a uni-
versity education is the associa-
tions which are formed in oolleg**
life. There is no stronger bond
than that which exists between
the members of tbe same univer-
sity, the members of the same
college fraternity, and the chums
of the same class.”
Mr. Bailey undoubtedly has the
right idea as to the advantage of
a home education, especially for
young men who expect to cootiu
ue to live in the State and to en-
gage in business or public life. It
is the most natural thing in tbe
world for a man who has business
to entrust to a lawyer or other
professional man ia another part
of thA'StaW to’think flnst of one
whose acquaintance at school has
iipened into friendship. If in lat-
er years the graduate of the uni-'
vereity should be seeking politi
cal preferment from the State at
•urge or even From one of the dis-
fhe university or flui'shing school
of his own State and the hundred*
of friends he made there and wire
were afterwards distributed
throughout all the localities from
which the aspirant for pol tioal
honors desired influential support.
Senator Bailey is political enough
to understand this and it may be
that be intends that his sons shall
follow in bis footsteps and
come statesmen. But his point
in favor of the home school is
well taken, whether that be the
purpose or whether a business
career has been mapped out for
them.
