Printer's lid; July '28, 1807. WASHINOTON NOTES. Democratic opposition to tho unnox ntion of Hawaii, which litis hecomo so pronounced Mneo tho reassembling of cougress, is fully explained by :i story that lms been told by tho Knowing ones in Washington. According to this story, tho democratic party bus boon sold by its leaders in congress to the sugar trust, which ail tho world knows is willing to spend an enormous amount of money to prevent tho an nexation of Hawaii. Tho sugar trust has agreed to furnish a corruption fund which tho democratic loaders be lieve to bo largo enough to enable them to elect a democratic majority in tho Irausa next year and adomocratlc pres ident in 11)00, If tho democratic leaders aausucccod in. preventing tho annex ation of Hawaii,' either through the ratitloation of the treaty or by direct legislation. That is why tho domo ttratio senators, with two exceptions, aro all working against tho ratification f kite treaty, and why the domocrats of tho house will this weok, in caucus, declare against annoxatlou. But this disgraceful deal cannot, bo carried out, became tho domDcratsJoannot prevent tho annexation of Hawaii. . w Chairman Dingley's emphatic state ment in the homo about the prospect ive revonuos ami expenditures of tho government, disposed of tho whole batch of mhrcpresimtations as to re publicans seriously considering legis lation to furnish additional rovonuc. Of wourso, everybody in Washington know that those stories were purely imaginary and that tho only object in circulating thorn was to dWci'udlt the admlnlitration untl tho republican partv. Mr. Dlngloy did not simply make tho assertion that tho revenue to tho 'government would; uxccctl its ovp.'ndlturos "by out least J?U),O00,lM0 during thy iiju Usual yu ;r, butjb.icked his assertions with figures which had tlioiuiqu illudd endorsement of lYcsi dent MeKinley and Secretary O.ige. No loi'latl mi providing for revenue is ointoiwplatml by the republicans in oomgiMss, for the simple jreason that none is uoodi'd; jtltu l)Iitly law is steadily Increasing 'the revenue and will provide all tho money necessary to uuonumlo.illy administer tho gov ern nieiit. V Tho fact that seventy-two republican Kiembors of the hoiipariiolpatcd in u eonferoneo called after they had each signed a papurjjth it the eonfer oneo should consistent such republi can mumburs asJiavor;thcliiiodilieatlon of tho civil service law, or a more lion eUonioreemoiitof Its provisions, or a xioio curtain doinltiou ofjtho extent of its iippliiMtlon," convinced even tho most iloubtlng that therejis serious re publican opposition to a contiuuaiico of the prosunt elvll;sorvico situation. Those republleacs believe in real civil kurvlee reform, but notjin tho sham ar tide for which Mr. Cleveland is re sponsible, which covered with tho pro tecting cloak of civil Jsorvii'M reform thousands of democrats who entered the piibllo service by,jlho;disniissal of lepubllcaus, for no 'other; cause than their republicanism U'dueed to what they consider its legitimate function every one of these republican represen tatives would vote for a continuance of tho civil service law, Jbut rather than see It continued in Its present shapo, they will will work foists repeal or crippling in any manner within their power, and they will not lack for staunch supporters among tho rank and lileiif tho party throughout tho coun try. V If tills isn't tho short business session of congress that it ought to be, tho re publican leaders of the house are fully determined that no blame shall be laid at their doors. Since tho first day of the session they have been hustling. Last week tho pension appropriation hill was reported ami passed, and this week tho legislative, executive and ju dicial appropriation bills will be put through. Thu disposal of two of ho regular impropriation bills before tho Christinas recess will be a record of which the republicans of tho house may well feel proud. A little thing like a fact never both ers those who lie through " choice. When senator Hoar pnsonled tho pe tition of Mime native llawaiiaiis against annexation to the sunate, the liars all rushed a statemeti oil' that ,ho had became, tho champion of thu pe titioners and Intended to light annex ntion. Now where do you suppose Senator Hoar got thai petition? From Secretary Sherman, one of the stanch est advocates of annexation. It was taken to tlte state department by the llawaiiaiis, and Mr. Sherman told them ho would have it laid before the senate, which had the treaty un lor cons deratson, and he asked Senator Hoar, as a member of tho committee on foreign relations, to present It. Every day senators present petitions with whlehtlioy have no sympathy, and nothing is'said about it, but in this case the paid lobbyists lied in order to impress their employers witli thu idea that they woro earning their pay.

THE DANGER to which the Expectant Mother is exposed and the foreboding and dread with which she looks for ward to the hour of woman's severest trial is appreciated by but few. All effort should be made to smooth these rugged places in life's pathway for her. ere she presses to her bosom her babe. MOTHER'S FRIEND allays Nervousness, and so assists Nature that the change goes for ward in an easy manner, without such violent protest in the way of Nausea, Headache, lite. Uloomy forebodings yield to cheerful and hopeful anticipations she passes through the ordeal quickly and without pain is left strong and vigorous and enabled to joyously perform the hitih and holy duties now devolved vpon her. Safety to life of both is abjured by the use of 'Mother's Friend, and the time of recovery shortened. "I know one lad, tho mother of three children, who suffered greatly in the birth of each, who obtained a bottlo of 'Mother's Friend of me before her fourth confinement, and was relieved quickly and easily.
