SATURDAY, MAY 6, 1899.
GOOD“ EVENING.
A Bridgeport woman has the house-
.cleaning mania in such pronounced
form that she even whitewashed the
coal.
The _maid in the kitchen makes up in
visiting relatives for what she lacks in
other lines.
What a marvelous confidence in , hu-
man nature is shown by the milk
bottles that are temptingly set on the
front steps to await the housewife’s
awakening.
Twenty-six thousand Chicagoans
lately turned out‘ to an exhibition of
:the national game. Evidently if the
sport is going to die in that city it will
be crushed to death.
The speakership of the next Congress
is likely to be a contest between Sher-
man,‘- of New York, and Hopkins, of
Illinois. The battle may become fierce
enough to result in a dark horse, but
as yet there is no indication of it.
The Philippine Islands today are in
a state of war. The United States
troops are in deadly conflict with the
barbarians. They are many, many
thousands of miles from home; they are
_ in an inhospitable climate; they are
fighting a treacherous and savage foe
that knows nothing of the laws of civil-
ized warfare, and everything is .calcu-
lated to cause discontent with the
American soldier but the single fact
that he is performing a patriotic duty
for which his country will honor him.
The diffusion of treasonable publica-
tions among soldiers thus situated
would be well calculated to inspire dis-
trust and dis-affection and to weaken
the efficiency .of the army. The admin-
istration is, therefore, entirely right in
halting these treasonable pamphlets on
the borders of the Union.
Three of the gas companies supply-
. ing light and heat to the residents of
Greater New York are indulging in a
merry war of prices, and as a result
New Yorkers are enjoying cheap gas
for the present. The war began be-
tween-the Consolidated and M utual Gas
Companies, both of which reduced the
price of gas from $1.10 to 65 cents per
thousand feet. Then the New Amster-
dam Gas Company took a hand in the
game, and reduced the price to 50 cents.
The others were compelled to follow
suit, of course, and now 50-cent gas is
the order of the day everywhere in
New York.
If the drop in prices caused by lively
competition could be depended on to he
a permanent one the gas consumers of
New York might be envied. It is prob-
able, that the temporary
spasm of low prices is a prelude to con-
solidation, and a permanent restora-
tion of the old and higher rate. .
however,
Ours is a very free country. The
largest possible latitude is given to free
speech, but there are occasions, espec-
iall y in time of war, when the circula-
tion of treasonable publications should
be halted by the strong arm of the gov-
ernment, where they might be well cal-
culated to create discontent in the army
and possibly incite mutiny. '
The administration did entirely right
in refusing to permit the pamphlets is-
sued by the Anti-Imperialist League of
Boston, that consists largely of Edward
Atkinson, from circulating treasonable
pamphlets among the soldiers in the
Philippines. These pamphlets are en-
titled respectively, “Criminal Aggres-
sion By Whom?” “The Cost Of a Na-
tional Crime” and “The Hell of War
and Its Penalties.”
They can do no harm, however freely
circulated, throughout .the United
States where there is general intelli-
gence, universal free schools and where
the newspaper reaches almost every
heme. The government is wise-in tak-
ing no note Of the circulation of treas-
onable publications among on r own
.r
'7}
people. To attempt to obstruct them
would simply be to dignify them and
give them the importance they cannot
Otherwise possibly obtain; but the cir-
culation of such pamphlets among the
sOldiers in Manila is quite a difierent
proposition, and the vital principle of
freedom of speech as taught by our free
institutions, is not in any way involv-
ed.»

- Parsnip complexion.
It does not require an expert to de-
tect the sufferer from kidney trouble.
The hollow cheeks, the sunken eyes,
the dark, puffy circles under the eyes,
the sallow parsnip-colored complexion
indicates it.
A physician would ask if you had,
rheumatism, a dull pain or ache in the
back or over the hips, stomach trouble.
desire to urinate often, or a burning or
scalding sensation in passing it; if after
passing it there is an unsatisfied feel-
ing as if it must be at once repeated, or
if the urine has a brick dust deposit or
strong odor.
When these symptoms are present,
no time should be lost in removing the
cause.
Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of
the bladder,inflammation, causing stop-
' page, and sometimes requiring the
drawing of the urine with instruments.
or may run into Bright’s Disease, the
most dangerous stage of kidney trouble.
Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great
discovery of the eminent kidney and
bladder specialist, is a positive remedy
for such diseases. Its reputation is
world-wide and it is so easy to get at
any drug store that no one need suffer
any length of time for want of it.
However, if you prefer to first test its
wonderful merits, mention THE EVEN-
ING GAZETTE and write to Dr. Kilmer

. GUAM’S GOVERNOR.
The Yosemite Sails For Our Pacific
Station.
NEW YORK, May 6.—Naval Govern—
or Richard P. Leary of the Island of
Grimm of the Ladrone group will sail at
1 p. In. today on the Yosemite for his
Pacific ocean station. Captain Leary
said yesterday?
“All my orders have been published.
We have been sent out to govern Guam,
and we are going to do it.”
The Yosemite carries an assorted car-
go. There is a canalboat stowed in the
hold, a buggy, stoves, ranges, bicycles
and goods enOugh to stock a country
store. The 125 marines are_under com-
mand of Major A. C. Kilton. They have
a band of. ten pieces.
Commander George E. Ide is in com-
mand of the Yosemite. The voyage will
be made by way of the Suez canal.
The Yosemite carries a. battery of
5 inch and rapid fire guns.
Naval Governor Leary is a. native of
Baltimore and was graduated from An—
napolis in 1860. In the war with Spain
he commanded the San Francisco. Cap-
tain Leary will also be postmaster gen-
eral of Guam. He carries all the para-
phernalia of a postal station. Guam is
to be made a naval station. -Barracks
for 500 marines will be erected.

A A-‘
BRITISH IMPERIALISM.
Ear] Rosebery Sharply Criticises the
Governnlent’s Attitude.
London, May 6.—The Earl of Rose—
bery, former Liberal prime minister and
lord president of the council, addressing
the London Liberal club last evening
and dilating upon the “present univer-
sality of imperialism in the British pos-
sessions,” said he thought the govern-
ment was pursuing curious methods of
fostering imperialism when it placed a.
tax upon Australian wines and offered
“only a miserable contribution, tied up
with irksome conditions, to the great
Canadian and Australian proposal for
an imperial cable.” He added a scath—
ing rebuke to the threats of the Radical
members of the house of commons to
oppose the grant to General Lord
Kitchener of Khartum in recognition of
the services of the sirdar in the Anglo-
Egyptian campaign for the reconquest
of the Sudan.
Late in the evening, when replying to
a. toast to his health, in which the hope
had been expressed that he would
quickly return to active, politics, Lord
Rosebery said:
“I hope nothing has occurred tonight
that can be taken as an indication that
I have any intention of returning to the
active arena which, deliberately and for
good reasons, I forsook in 1896."
Rice For Cuba.
WASHINGTON, May 6.—-Cons’ul Gen-
eral Lincoln, at Antwerp, regards it as
a. fact worth reporting to the state de-
partment that during the last quarter -
more than $86,000 worth of rice from the
cast was exported from Antwerp to
Cuban ports. He says it would seem
in case the southern states cannot sup-
ply rice to Cuba that our merchants at
least should have some hand in pro-
curing the supply needed.
