Over 1,200 Pages and 500 Valuable Illustrations. Three Beautiful Volumes in Half Moroc.ce. See special offer at bottom of this advertisement. This Magnificent Edition for only ONE DOLLAR DOWN. To the readers of this paper we make the following proposition to become mem bers of the Review of Reviews History Club, and obtain the three volumes-of Our War in Two Hemispheres, By ALBERT SHAW, Editor of the u American Monthly Review of Reviews " and author of “ Municipal Government in Great Britain," etc., and a number of prominent contributors. /"’VERY American teacher possessing a library, and many that do not possess one, will be M interested in Che announcement of the history of the late war with Spain, now published by the Review of Reviews Company. Much of the narrative was written by Dr Albert Shaw during the actual fighting of the summer. This has been revised and amplified by him in the light of the official reports and documents, which have only become available after hostilities ceased. A free quotation from the critical Congressional debates and other public utterances at crucial periods aids in making this work what it is, the standard reference history of this decisive and successful struggle. But it is much mo: e than a lively and comprehensive narrative. Itgoes back to the years of struggle in Cuba which prepared the way for the war; it discusses energetically ali problems which confronted the "United States after the war as to the Philippines,Cuba, and Porto Rico; and as a whole it forms a broadly conceived picture of the year which has seen America brought face to face with new world duties. The important special and technical matters of the war period, generally dismissed by the , historian with only slight and often insufficient discussion, are fully and authentically dealt with in contributed chapters, written by men who had unusual opportunities for studying their subjects. Thus, the lessons which the war has for us as to the relative efficiency of rifles and machine guns are in a carefully written chapter by Lieut. John H. Parker, of the United States army: the military movements of the Santiago and Porto Rican campaigns are analyzed by the editor of the Army and Navy Journal: the battle with Cervera is described by the novelist, 1 Winston Churchill, who is a graduate of theUnited StatesNaval Academy; the actual condition 1 of Cuba before the war. and the facts which caused the war are described by eye-witnesses, 1 Murat Halstead and Stephen Bonsai. i The illustration of the book is especially valuable in the hundreds of portraits, pictures of . the navies, photographed scenes of the war, and the entertaining cartoons reproduced from the , Spanish, French, German, and English papers, as well as from the American.

C Many Republicans still cling to the delusion that the party of Lincoln has not degenerated into an instrument for the use of the international bankers’ syndicate, otherwise known as the money power. They say that there is no evidence to prove it. There is abundance of evidence. The very fact that the entire banking interests of the country are opposed to the success of the Democratic party should be enough however. All the bankers are support ing the Republican administration, and quite as enthusiastically as they did Vith money and bulldozing in 1896. The three famous circulars issued in 1860 and in 1893 have been widely quoted as showing the methods used by the money power. They may, how ever, be reprinted with profit just now. The Hazard Circular. This one issued by an agent of Lon don capitalists to the New York capi talists in 1862: Slavery is likely to be abolished by the war power, and chattel slavery de stroyed. This, I and my European friends are in favor of, for slavery is but the owning of labor and carries with it the care for the laborer, while the European plan, led on by England, is for capital to control labor by con trolling the wages. THIS CAN BE DONE BY CONTROLLING THE MONEY. The great debt that capital ists will seo to it is made out of the war must be used as a means to control the volume of money. To accomplish this the bonds must be used as a bank ing basis. We are now waiting for the secretary of the treasury to make the recommendation to congress. It will not do to allow the greenback, as it is called, to circulate as money any length of time, as we cannot control that. Wall Sireet Circular. This one afterwards issued by New- York bankers to the national banks; Dear sir: It is advisable to do all in your power to sustain such prominent daily and weekly newspapers, especial ly the agricultural and religious press, as will oppose me Issuing of greenback paper money, and that you also with hold patronage or favors from all ap plicants who are not willing to oppose the government issue of money. Let the government issue the coin and the banks issue the paper money of the country, for then we can better protect each other. To repeal the law creating national bank notes, or to restore to circulation the government issue of money, will be to provide the people with money, and will therefore seri ously affect your individual profit as bankers and lenders. See your con gressman at once, and engage him to support our interests that we may con trol legislation. The Panic Circular of 1883. Dear sir—The interests of national bankers require immediate financial legislation by congress. Silver, silver certificates and treasury notes] 6 must be retired, and national bank notes upon a gold, basis made the only money. This will require the authorization of from 5500,600,000 to $1,000,000,000 of new bonds as a basis of circulation. You will at once retire one-third of your circulation and call in one-half of your loans. Be careful to make a money stringency felt among your pa trons, especially among influential business men. Advocate an extra ses sion of congress for the repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman law and act with the other banks of your city in securing a large petition to congress for its unconditional repeal, per accompanying form. Use personal influence with congressmen, and par ticularly let your wishes be known to your senators. The future life of na tional banks as fixed and safe invest ments depends upon immediate action, as there is an increasing sentiment in favor cf government legal tender notes and silver coinage. should know that a very large propor tion of modern business is done oh borrowed money. A fall of prices fre quently makes it impossible for the debtor to pay, breaks up hjs business and injures all who are in any manner dependent upon him. Strict equity re quires perfect stability of prices. But this is impossible under any system. There are bound to be fluctuations, and a rise of prices, unless caused by scarc ity, is infinitely better than a fall. True, the creditor may be paid in cheaper money, but he gets the benefit of the 1 rise in all other forms of property ex- - cept money, and shares the general : prosperity. If we have no property . other than money the answer is that | the welfare of the whole country ‘ should not be subordinated to the in terests of a few who are engaged in no business but that of lending money. Reports in the Hanna Bribery Case. Although the case of Senator Hanna under the charge that he procured his election to the senate by bribery and i other corrupt meows was ended, after j a fashion before the close of the recent 1 session, it is not too late to recall the ; facts and the committee reports for our improvement and edification. The case was last before the senate Feb ruary 28, and was then dropped, not by the excAjr^Jon of Hanna, but be cause nobody felt enough interest in the matter to urge a continuance of the investigation. It would be just as proper for the senate in the fifty-sixth congress to make an investigation as it was for the senate in the last con gress. Hanna occupied his seat in that body to fill out the unexpired term of John Sherman, whom he suc ceeded in the senate. That term ex pired March 4, 1899. At the time when he was elected for the short term he was also elected for the full term, whch begins with the fifty-sixth con gress. The same charges of bribery and other offenses are. involved in both elections. The minority report covers about the same ground as the majority, but holds that there is enough proof that Hanna was aware of the acts of his agents to warrant further investiga tion. The fact that Hanna and other persons subpoenaed as witnesses re fused to appear is forcibly presented and the reasonable inference is drawn that they stayed away because they were in possession of damaging testi mony. The majority report refers to the absence of these witnesses, bui does not regard it as of enough im portance to make further proceeding- necessary. The minority say t?%t the senate should not wait for the action of the state of Ohio, but should pursue the investigation in justice to itsell and from a proper regard for its own reputation, The failure of the investigation foi the causes which appear does not leave Hanna with an untainted title to his seat in the senate. He is not acquitted of the charges against him. But if he is willing and thinks that he can af ford to let the case rest where it is probably this is the inconclusive end of the matter. The Grah Game in China, Boston Globe: Already we have the best export trade record with China oi any country in the world. In spite of all outside inducements the Chinese prefer to buy of us. The treaty ports furnish ample outlets for our exports. We do not need any of the rejected remnants not taken by the other pow ers. We have better trade prospects with China than all the European loot ers put together. Why, then, should we join in her robbery?

In the absolute sense it makes no difference whether prices are high or low. If wheat had never been more than a cent a bushel, and everything else in proportion, it would be no hard ship to the farmer. But suppose when wheat is a dollar he buys a farm for $2,000, pays half cash, giving a mort gage for the remaining $1,000. Wheat then drops to a cent, everything else going down at the same rate. The ! goldite says no harm is done because ■ he can buy more cheaply. Ah! but i how would he pay his taxes? Where 1 would .he money come from to pay his $1,000 mortgage? How much would the farm be worth? If that fell in a ratio with the value of the product it would be worth just $20. Its value would be no more than the tax upon it. Upon foreclosure it would not pay the costs of the suit. The farm would be taken away from him, the $1,000 al ready paid would be gone, he would be $1,000 in debt, and at manual labor he would be able to earn just about one cent a day. The reader can figure for ; himself on the problem of when he i would be able to pay the $1,000 debt. This illustration, of course, presents an extreme case, but it shows the principle involved in falling prices. It is not the low price per se that hurts. It is the descentfro^ a higher . iQ a lower level, four correspondent Reed Persona Non Grata. St. Louis Globe-Democrat: Mr. Reed has gone too far already with his sar donic coldness for republican policies, and his biting comment on situations that, while difficult, are unavoidable. He has also asserted the speakership in legislation to the utmost limit. The administration has cares enough with out contending against a more than un sympathetic speaker assuming to be next the president in power. In se lecting a speaker the next house will move with prudence and perfect party loyalty. Endorses Democratic Platform. St. Louis Post-Dispatch (Rep.): With the protracted and expensive sena torial contests this month in five states, and the corruption thereto, can any American citizen longer doubt that the election of United States senators should be done by the people? In every state there should be an upris ing of taxpayers and the expression of determination to do away with the present burdensome and demoralizing system of choosing senators. Get the Army Out of Cuba. Philadelphia Record: There is no war going on in the West Indies now, but the time is rapidly approaching when the American occupation will be quite as dangerous as it was -when our soldiers had to look into the muzzles of Spanish guns. The deadly climate is the one unanswerable argument for haste in establishing Cuban rule in Cuba. Alger’s Plan of Reasoning. Milwaukee Sentinel: Instead of tak ing a sensible view of the beef con troversy, Gen. Alger has behaved, even from his own standpoint, in a most in judicious manner. “If the beef was bad, then I am incompetent; therefore the beef must have been good”-—this, or something like it, appears to have been the unpublished reasoning cf the secretary. ^tu& Makes the food more delicious and wholesome ROYAL BAKING POWDER CO., NEW YORK, BRIGANDAGE IN TURKEY. ft Daring Case at Smyrna and Another Near Constantinople. A daring case of brigandage recent ly occurred at Smyrna, in which the victim was the son of Mr. Whittall, one of the richest and leading British mer chants of that town, says the London Standard. Young Mr. Whittall was driving with three ladies from Smyrna to Burnabat, one of the suburbs, when the carriage was stopped by six men, four of whom seemed to be Bulgarians or Greeks from Bulgaria, and two na tive Arnaouts. Leaving the ladies to report the occurrence, the brigands carried off their victim in evening dress, sending word by his compan ions that they demanded £1,500. Mr. Whittall, immediately on receiving the news, started in pursuit, taking with him the sum required in gold, being in great anxiety on account of the in clemency of the weather and the scanty clothing in which his son was clad. His fears were the more justi- How to Enamel Chairs. Shabby Windsor or bent wood chairs can be made to look quite smart enough for bedroom or “den” by being painted over with black enamel paint. If, when the enamel be dry, a little bronze paint be smeared or smudged over them, a “Japanese” effect will be obtained, which will be very pleasing, and a great relief to their somber ap pearance. The expressions “smeared” and “smudged” are used advisedly, for the bronze should be put on with an. almost dry brush and should merely cling to the hair, so that they may leave a certain amount of color when they are dragged over the black enam- *1. To regularly paint on the bronze would be to lose’ the pretty effect sought, ; Indians in Oregon market every spring tons of wool gathered from sheep that C' a on the ranges during the winter fied, as it is not very long since an other of his sons was similarly abduct-' ed, and, I believe, ultimately died from the effects of the exposure. After three days’ hard traveling the brigands were found and the ransome paid, the men escorting the two Whittalls on part cf their homeward journey, and finally parting with them with many- kisses and protestations of gratitude. Mr. 'Whittall is now applying to the British embassy to know if the British or Turkish government will refund him the money paid. It is not long since another case occurred close to Constantinople, at a small town named Kouri Yalova, where there is a sani tary establishment kept by a Mme. Bronzo, midwife to the palace. One afternoon she was out driving with two of her guests, an old lady and her young daughter, when they were seized. The coachman foolishly re marked; “Be careful; she is the mid wife for the sultan's harem.” Seeing at once that they had a rich prize, the band, numbering twelve or . thirteen, took Mme. Bronzo and the young lady, and told her mother that they wanted £10,000. They also reassured the old lady, saying that she need have no fears for her daughter, an exceedingly pretty girl, who should be returned safe and well. The money was quick ly paid, and the ladies, who had really been very well treated, were released, the captain of the band making each of them a present of £100 on parting. The government then commenced a ruthless search after the men, scour ing the whole countryside with zap- tiehs, who were quartered on all the villages, so that the villagers them selves joined heartily in the chasu in order to get rid of these unwelcome guests. Finally nine of the band.were caught and either killed or put away. Being mostly Greeks, they hid princi pally with Greek shepherds far ano high up in the mountains near Ismidt. and scarcely a single shepherd escaped being put to the question. I recently had occasion to meet one of the prin cipal witnesses, who had been the leader in the hunt, and who had been present at all the "examinations” oi the prisoners. Six thousand pounds was found buried near the vilage of Denizly, the place being revealed un der torture. The last two men were caught at Ovadjik, a neighboring vil lage, where I heard the story told. The captain and two of his companions are still at large and have probably left the country. CATARRH Enlargement of the soft bones of the nose, thickening and ulceration of the lin ing membrane, with its constant discharge of unhealthy mucus and pus; breath tainted, hawking, expectorating, nose- bleeding, headaches, partial loss of hear ing, and noises in the head Caused by Poisoned Condition of the Blood. , Cured by Botanic Blood Balm (B.B.B.) The Great Blood Remedy. Catarrh is due to an Impure condition of ths blood, and is one of the numerous offspring of Blood Poison. It may have come from a long way back in the family history, but the general opinion among medical men Is that Catarrh is the offshoot of Pat. soaed Blood, producing bad breath and the above- - named symptoms. The fact is admitted by all that It is only curable by constitutional treatment. Bo tanic Blood Balm (B. B. B.) has scored some bril liant victories in the cure of this loathsome malady, , and why ? Because B. B. B., when taken as directed, mixes with the poisons in the blood, which produce Catarrh, so as to cause the poison to be expelled from the blood through the sweat glands and excretory organs. IL R. Saulter, Athens, Georgia, wrote not long ago that he was surprised to observe how- agreeable his breath had become since using only three bottles of B. B. B. He was also able to hear better. Mrs. Lula Banks of Alabama wrote us that a friend of hers since using six bottles of B. B. B. I that the mucous discharges which she had through the • mouth and nose had stopped, and that she was able I to breathe freely, and talk without offending any cn» with her bad breath.
