FAITH OF NATION IS PLEDGED. .Chief Executive Says Legislation In Question Is Demanded Not Only by Our Interests , but by Our Honor- Plea for Island Republic. Washington , Nov. 10. The second day of the special session of congress was devoted to the reading of the president's message , urging the en action of legislation necessary to make effective the Cuban reciprocity treaty. The following Is the text .of the message : Vo DIP Semite nnd House of Itcprccrntn- tires : I have convened the congress that it may consider the legislation ncecs- oary to put Into operation the coin- morclal treaty with Cuba , which was ratified by the senate at its last scs- Ion nnd subsequently by the Cuban government. I deem such legislation demanded , not only by out Interest , but by our honor. AVe cannot with propriety abandon the course upon which ho have so wisely embarked. When the acceptance of the Platt amendment was required from Cuba by the action of congress of the United States , this government thereby defi- aitely committed Itself to the policy ot treating Cuba as occupying a unique position as regards this coun try. It was provided that when the island become a free and independent republic she should stand In such close relations with us as In certain respects to como within our system of International policy ; and it ncces- arlly follows that she must also to a certain degree became Included within the lines of our economical policy. Situated as Cuba is , it would not bo possible for this country to permit the trateglc abuse of the plan by any for- Ign military power It is for this reason that certain limitations have been imposed upon her financial pol icy and tht' naval stations have been conceded by her to the United States. The negotiations as to the details ot these naval stations are on the eve /completion. . They are so situated ar to prevent any Idea that there Is the Intention over to use thorn against Cuba , or otherwise than for the pro tection of Cuba from the assaults of foreign foes , and for the better safe guarding of American Interests In the waters south of us. These interests have been largely Increased by the consequences of the war with Spain , and will be still further - ther Increased by the building of the Isthmian canal. They are both mill- J tary and economic. The granting to P us by Cuba of the naval stations above 1 alluded to Is of the most Importance I from a military standpoint and Is proof of the good faith with which Cuba Is treating us. Cuba has made i treat progress since her-Independence * was established. She has advanced teadlly in every way. She already lands high among her sister repub- ' ' lies of the new world. She is loyally ' . observing her obligations to us , and ' * ho Is entitled to like treatment by us. The treaty submitted to you for ap L L * proval secures to the United States economic advantages as great as ' those given to Cuba. Not an Ameri can Interest is sacrificed by the treaty. a large Cuban market Is assured teL i x L our producers. It la a large market / -which lies at our doors , which Is large , 1 * r ; capable of great expansion , and which ' * ' IB particularly Important to the do- I ' Telopment of our export trade It j - -would be , Indeed , shortsighted for us ' to refuse to take advantage of such ' opportunity and to force Cuba Into } making arrangements with other coun tries to our disadvantage. This reciprocity treaty stands bv it- 'self. It Is demanded on considerations of broad national policy as well as by our economic Interest. It will do harm to no Industry. It will benefit many Industries. It Is In the interest of our people as a whole , both because of Its Importance from the broad standpoint of International policy and because economically It intimately concerns us to develop and secure the rich Cuban market for our farmers , artisans , merchants and manufactur ers. Finally , It is desirable as a guar anty of the good faith of our nation towards her younger sister republic i V. to the Bouth. whose welfare must ever be closely bound with our Wo gave f her liberty. Wo are knit to her by the memories of the blood and the courage of our soldiers who fought for her In war ; by the memories of tbo wisdom nnd Integrity of our ad ministrators who saved her In peace and who started her so well on the difficult path of self-povernment. We must help her onward and upward : and In helping her we shall help our selves. The foregoing considerations caused the negotiation of a treaty with Cuba and its ratification by the ? cnate. They now. with equal force support ' tht 'legislation by the congress which by the terms of the treaty , Is neces- k nry to render It operative. A failure to enact such legislation would como . perilously near a repudiation of the plfldped faith of the nation. I transmit hodewlth the treaty as , amended by the senate and ratified by t the Cuban government. I Tnnnnnnn nonsnvKt/r. I < Whlto House , Nov. 10 , 1903.

The brick plant has begun regular work nnd work Is progressing on their own brick for the building of coverings for their kilns , says the IMonoor. The capacity of each kiln will bo 200,000 brick and sulllelcnt brick will now bo burned to erect two such kilns. Un til these are built no regular brick fur the market will ho miulo. It Is the purpose of the company to sort the brick into three classes as they eomo from the kilns , thus giving n superior third class pressed brick at about the same price as the very poor common brick used in this mar ket , while the ilrst nnd second qual ities will make the best of finished brick.

It Is a big institution nnd should certainly win new laurels for Nlo brara Industry. The men who have dared to venture tholr money in this enterprise are to be congratulated for their venture , for the success must surety como when brick of this qual ity that has boon made from our soil can bo turned out for competition against anything this side of Omaha. 13.

Special to The News : This city was thrown nto a furore of excitement yesterday i morning by the discovery of'the hang-1 Ing in elllgy the night before of n | llguro representing State Dank Pres ident and County Clerk C. H. Staloy. The llguro was found yesterday morn ing suspended from a telephone polo in Main street liberally covered with Inscriptions and bearing the namoof the individual whom It was intended j to represent.

Mr. Staloy has had the ofllco of county clurk for four years , being elected four years ago on the populist nnd two years ago on the fusion ticket. The fusion candi date this year , L. II.

G. Illrons , the republican candidate , by17 votes , lias caused a storm of disapproval nnd was the cause of Sat urday night's doings. Ii ] view of the fact that Mr. Staloy has been given ofllco for four years and now that ho Is out nnd turned at the last moment on his party's can didate , and the man who was his dep uty during his entire olllclal career , has made the aforesaid Stalcy exceed ingly unpopular In this city nnd the end is not yet.

A letter recently received by Dr. Hartman - man from Sinter lleutrix n. Callain-110 W. Thirtieth street , Now York , reads as follows : " I cannot say too much In praise ol Pcnina. Eight bottles of It cured me of catarrh of the lungs of four /.ens asking that E.V. . ninkoy , who Is stationed here as brand Inspector for the various stock growers' associa tions , ho appointed as deputy United States marshal.

It Is a substantial stone edifice and Is proof positive that Mr. Dononborgcr haH implicit conn- donee In the future of Doncstcol. Much credit Is duo Mr. Dononbergor in taking the InltiPtlvo as he did In the erection of a substantial lire- proof building. Such a building adds greatly to the looks of the town and is n source of satisfaction to the owner. Brick or stone buildings do not cost .much more than wooden buildings and that -difference Is soon ate up by excessive insurance rates. Attachment proceedings were filed In .ludgo Hathman's court Monday by S. V. Lucas against W. A. Simmons. Friday is the day sot for hearing. Simmons lias been living in Done- steel with an aged mother for the past year and has not been looked upon as a citizen with any great de gree of pride. Ho haH been in the habit of abusing hlH poor old mother ; o n shameful degree. Simmons un dertook to leave Monday with his mother for Charles Mix county , taking with him some stock hut leaving a pasture account nnd some other bills. Ho had only proceeded a few miles when ho was overtaken by Ofllcor Lewis and compelled to re turn nnd face the music. Last Friday night Mrs. Jos. Schu macher noticed a light in the upper story of the now Uoncsteol. State bank building and thought the build ing was on lire , and called her hus band's attention to it , but ho thought It was from W. S. McLaln's flro pot as ho know ho had been at work there after supper , hut the oxplana tlon did not satisfy Mrs. Schumacher and Hho went over and discovered the floor on lire and gave the alarm. Prompt action on the part of citi zens soon extinguished the ( lames with little damage to the building. When Mr. McLaln loft the building ho left his clmrcoaflro pot sitting on the floor with a few smouldering coals In it and the flro is supposed to have originated from that source. This was Donosteol's flrst flro scare In the business portion of the city nnd terminated most happily. years' standing , and I would not have hccn without It for anythliiK. It helped several Slaters of coughs nnd colds and I have yet to find ono case ofca- tarrh that It does not cure. " Sister licatrlx.
