UNHAPPY MEXICO.
Tha Slttsr Republic Crosnlng Under Corrupt
Rule and Rlpa for Revolution
The peoplo of Mexico groan under Ilia
atnuip law fear a forcetUoan nnd count
tlio weeks until President Uonyalea'
olllclnl term shall expire snjs n letter
to The Denver Tribune. They have
learned the cfl'ccls of revolution nnd
dread It n tho liurned child does the
lire hut thoy have 'been eocrey
tempted In that direction durlne th
pasl.iour months. First came the nickels
then tho stamp law then tho raid on tho
Monte de l'ledad. Then they nsked
with hlonohed face: "What next?"
Willi the parly In power tha constant
cry lis "Money to pay tho army!" This
Is their one protection and when pny
day enmes nnd llnds mi empty treasury
they nru lost. Anytlilni; to rnlso the
wind. "President Ooninles has tried to
ttlsposo of tho Aluieda nnd threatened
lo sell the cathedral" ao the people any
and one Is prepared tohelleve him enpa-
lilo of any outrage lie entered his
ofllco a little less than Tour years ago
poor man soldier of fortune vho had
risen from obscurity to the rank ofOcn-
e rnl of Division. He will b out a very
rich man leaving Mexico wllhrnit credit
nd a treasury cuntalnlnp; nothing ex
cept o quantity of nickel which even
the beggars politely refuse to accept. I
learn from the best of authority that ho
owns to-day In the .State ot Tamaullpas
atune set en large haciendas ranging In
value from $30000 to $.100000 each
l'uhllo opinion names his gains high tip
In tlin millions and ho substantiates
gossip by n recent oiler to loan his Im-
poverished Government n few Inlllions
In this hour of her grent need. The
stamp act compelled the merchant to go
among the dint and cobwebs of his old
stock uml slick a Mamp on eery article
and the enforcement of this law Involves
about n million of spies. In some large
establishments tho first outlay for neces-
sary stumps rnngt'd from J lll.OW to SJ0-
0(10 resulting In complete buslncis par-
nlysls. At llrst nil but two-or three
shops (subsidized) In the city wero
closed Tho poor were nimble to buy
corn for torllllua or the frljoles dear to
tiicir itiexienn siouiacus; tney garnered
in tho streets glowered and threatened
to revolt. The women saldt "Jf they
were only men they'd burst tho doom
In" hut the military patrol was quadru-
pled the police doubled and "might
was right." One by one the shops
opened the merchants rescinding orders
for new goods and their minds uintle
up to evnde nt every possible point
honestly or dishonestly the laws of a
government so entirely lacking In dig-
nity as to be unable to commnnu respect.
Tho 23 cent Ink bottle fiotn which I write
Is decorated by a stamp. I was amused
the other day to see a groat dark-eyed
Mexican baby phiyltig with a dime doll
unablo to solvo tho problem oflls wood-
en legs being tightly stamped together;
her perplexed ilttlo fueo at last settled
Into a fixed belief that It was a freak of
doll nature. This state or allalrs must
be discussed. "Tell It not In Oath!"
Whisper It not to the swallows 1 If this
letter finds Its way hack to Mexico as I
hopo It will iny best friends will advise
me to hide my pen throw nwoy my
paper nnd steal forth out of this "Land
of God and Liberty" by the llrst north-
ward bound train on the Mexican Cen-
tral road over which I fortunately havo
a pass. The press of -Mexico Is muzzled
nnd gagged hy -fear of subsidies and
dares not say "boo" to a goose. There
are but two papers hero In the capital
unsuhsldlzed by thegeneralgovernuient
and one of those nestles underthe pro-
tection of the golden wings of the Fed-
eral "powers that be." If an American
Is bravo enough to write homo the truth
It Is tbo part of wisdom for him or her to
becomo the bearer of their own dis-
patches or-run the risk of paving tho
penalty of that clause of the 'Mexican
law relating to tho "banishment of per-
nicious foreigners."
Even the great Charles Dana himself
might have been whisked across the
frontier between two dusky-faoed sol-
diers if wo aro to Judge by tho tcrrlllo
howl some of his statements have
caused In the papers of this morning.
There is hut one man In Mexico who
dares to stand up face the situation and
tell the truth James tiulllvnn of the
renowned l'almcr-Sulllvnn railway sys-
tem. Ho seems to delight In unveiling
somo of the national crookedness and
Is looked upon as tho Mcphistopheles of
Mexico. 1'orfirlo Diaz if he Isn't assas-
sinated (and they have attempted it
twice during the past month) Is the
only salvation of the country. He Is
the Moses who Is to lead his people up
out of the darkness tn deliver them
from this one-armed Pliaroah. who is
compelling them to make bricks with-
out straw. A few weeks longer and
Diaz will be elected President. Just
fancy! I nsked n prominent man when
election day was. Ho replied "Ho one
knows." Just before the furco takes
plnco there aro somo posters hung in
obscure courts and corridors announc-
ing a general election. No one rends
them no one knows anything about It.
There Js no caucus no primary no con-
vention nor anything only n""declura-
tlon of election" and then the present
Incumbent will step out execrated by
BLOODSIIEO AT PANAMA.
Desperate lllotl Among the Ctnll Lsbcrers--tm-pondlnjAnarchy
Panasi i Juno 17 The city of Panama
Is full of thieves and had characters at-
tracted by the canal works. A military
patrol Is sent out every night and acts
In unison with the police. Several at-
tempts have been made to fire the city.
On the night of the 11th Instant four
dim-rent attempts were made to fire the
city of Asplnwall. The city Is built on
an Island at the head of Xavy bay nnd
tho buildings are constructed almost en-
tirely of wood. To-day It has a popula-
tion of about 12000 persons three-
fourths of whom aro conal laborers.
The criminal clement Is largely present
there. Two of the men who attempted
to tiro the city drovo the police off with
their revolvers when Interrupted In their
nefarious designs. Unless the authori-
ties wake up fire rioting and bloodshed
will be the lot of Colon.
On Sunday last the ISth Instant a
small riot occurred at Emperador a sta-
tion on the rallwoy where the canal
laborers were being paid oir. Five men
had been wounded when the Alcalde
quelled the disturbance. A forco
of police and soldiers was sent out on a
special train. The presence of this
force alone prevented a bloody massa-
cre. The feeling of hatred between the
Jamaicans and Carthagentans (Colum-
bians) is very bitter. All the Jamaicans

Ari.nlo Pills by Hi. Pint.
J. A. Smith a Gainesville Georgia
merchant sajs: "For years 1 was a
victim to the combined effects of Ery-
sipelas nnd on nggrnvnted typo of
l'.czemn that batlled all medical skill.
I consulted the very best physicians In
the United States to no good purpose.
1 gavo every patent medicine that was
recommended n faithful trial and re-
ceived no bencllt. I took largo quanti-
ties of potash and a pint cup full of
arsenic pills. The patent medicine
pills ami potash mixtures fed instead of
curing the disease They destroyed my
appetite and wrecked my system I lost
flesh and energy I lost three years from
my business anil spent $'-(K In a fruit-
less effort to regain my health. At last
when I began to consider my rase hope-
less I commenced taking S. y. H. nnd
In a short time I was entirely cured. I
waited n year nfler a cure was effected
and continued to take Hvvlft's Hpcclllo
off and on as n sort of safeguard heforu
1 was willing to make publlo this mar-
velous cure llelng assured beyond the
possibility or n doubt that the cure was
permanent I wrote this history or my
case for the bencllt of my fellow men.
My skin is now as smooth as it was
when n boy. I weigh more tlinn I cter
did In my life and my general health
was never better. I passed through Inst
winter (which was nn unusually cold
one) without losing n slnglo day from
my business. For the last twelve
months 1 have had no r.eturn of the ery-
sipelas In any shnpo 'or. form or any
touch of rczemn."

or neeeaaury to tteal this troubUaome dlaeaae as a rule and thus people themselves do not
apiuxbcnd tbo danger they are In when tbey consult a physician and he tells them Ol lis
nothing but a cold" and yet that ureal led cold In a vast number of eases Is the first start of

ouly inctillou ouo ntorv aa a rcuiarkabtn Inatanoo uf how much good can be done that claw of
luuurabloao-nJledtJiiuiopllvea. O. Y. l'ye of Loon Hprlugi had Catarrh for some ears

A few words now in regard to tho car may not be uninteresting to some especially those
who are sufforen from varied nnd numerous forms of disease. Very few people nood urging
to consult an Aurlat wbn they havo a discharge of matter from It especially If accompanied
by a fuulsmoll yit some will an J that too strange aj It may sound la this day of cnlight-
uent by adrlco of physlctana but surely It Is never done by one who understand diseases of
thla organ.
It l4u lamentably fact that some A thootdur physician without any special knowledge on
this point) have a prcjudico against trie stoppage ot purulcut discharges from the car but this
Is baMnlupoti tho erroneous teachings of old French writers Du Vcrney andltard. D B. flU
Jobnllooaa M. LU 11 IVofcttmr of liUcaso of Eyoand Car In tho University of New
Voi k City t durgooa of Manhattan nyuaud Kat Hospital; Consulting Burgeon of Brooklyn Eyo
and lUr Hospital cto and who Is considered tho very best authority on the sbbject sayi In his
lastworkt Therolsnopathologloaleiucrlenoo on record which can sustain tho assertion
that It Is dangerous to stop a discharge from tho ear.' Lot anyone acquainted with anatomy
consider this fait that there Is perhaps uo part of the human body which has more Important
anatomical rulatlou. Tho cavity of tue tymtunaum Is covered over bra thin bony plato
which la In direct communication with tho cerebral meninges; the floor 1 close to the great
jujftar Itstutcrnal wall Is tho labyrinth wall covered only by very thin membrane and open
Ing Into tho branches of tho aoouatlo nerve whllo on tho ouUIdo wo bavo a tbln membrane
about as thick as paper. It Is easy to aeo that a continuous destruction of theso parts by sup
pu ration unless cured. In tui part would sooner or later (wbteh It always does) load to serloua

cases having a runnlngear" have alo a oougu and when the ear Is cured tbo cough Is also
cured 'ostuMd Ot being worae.
Thou .acre is anotber class of cases that some time consult the doctor they complain of

audbemuat have gruaisaui indeed to stop tbe course of tbe disease and keep tho hearing

II people would go to the A u list every time anything was tbe matter with their ears and
not wall to consult physician and otbwrs they would suffer far lea and preserve their bearing;
much better a neary ait the ditkusu ot Ibis organ are curable cap ocially In tbo first stage.
