Colonial Incapacity the Reason of Poverty of Germany's Pos- .seSsionS. Germany hes had hard luck in her 'African provinces, says the Tour du ,, Monde (Paris). At Togo, the reve- nue has; diminished. At Kamerun the most northern railroad has been. • completed, .but there has been a bad cocoa harvest owing to the heavy rains. In South-west Africa the diamond -fields are monopolized by the great foreign companies, and in East Africa an excess of importa- tions leaves on hand a mass of un- sold ' merchandise. The cotton -crop has proved a failure. The Berlin Post contains a striking article on this point, in which General von Liebert, formerly Governor of Ger- man East Africa, advises his Gov- ernment to annex the, African pos- sessions of Portugal, which are richer than those of Germany. First of all, he charges • the Govern- ment with colonial incapacity, and says: ' "The past five and twenty years have been characterized 1 y a want of clear purpose, and by utter in- capacity in our colonial policy. The colonial administration has toiatted BLUNDER AFTER BLUNDER. The railways with narrow gauge which we have built have two pecu- liarities—they are cheap and they are'bad."- He abandons with regret the hope that Germany is to have a slice of Northwest Africa, but observes: "My programme is to make Cen- tral Africa a German territory. People will approve of this idea for the following reasons First of all, there, is nothing else left for•'•ns.to take in any other part of the globe. And then we unify our possessions in East and West Africa. Finally, we must profit by this' golden oppor- tunity to put into execution our de- signs upon the Po•tuguese colon- ies." The Portuguese finances are now, the General proceeds, and their in- capable administration of African territories warrants Germany in Occupying.. their land and ousting them from th•o rich plantations... r't�lxt ' ,bad. financial , plight in `+eelie nds.44self, and•,, e dation of its colonies, labii ' • s to take this course. As "early as 1899 everything seemed to. be in readiness for our occupation of the north of Mozambique and Rowuna. The diplomacy of Ger- many, as usual, then gave way to that of England. Germans must enter these territories, establish plantations there, cultivate the land, establish missions, and BUILD RAILROADS. The Government will then be com- pelled to complete the political oc- cupation of a land which the people rest • have conquered." That this proposal has even been whispered in Downing Street, is proved by several articles in such papers as the London Standard and The Daily Mail. The important London Saturday Review puts the case mere politely, treating it as being safeguarded by an "Anglo - German deal." Thus we read : "It has also been recognized, though not publicly, that should ortugal desire to part with her est African possessions, Germany is to have as to them a right of pre-emption. The time is now rap- idly approaching when Portugal, urgently in need of cash, will offer Angola to German enterprise for a valuable consideration. Angola, with nearly 1,000 miles of coast line, has an arca of about half a million square miles. Under the 4, present wretched regime every kind of corruption and misgovernment 'flourishes. The rich' and abounding resources of the country—both min- ; erzl and vegetable—are merely ,� tapped, in no sense developed. k 'Here, then, is a field to which Ger- man enterprise may devote itself •and find a place in the sun worthy of its ambitions.

But Dodd's Kitiney Pills •fttve Benefited Him so lkiucll Ile ,ate- coniinends Them to Otker$—W0y They Always Core Rheuniatisni:. v.' Hogberg, B. C., February 26 (Special). --That Dodd's Kidney Pills will cure Rheumatism has been proved again and again. Where the dread clihease is making. its first inroads into the system the cure is quick and complete. Where the rheumatism is of longer stand- ing it takes longer treatment, but the result is always the same. Dodd's Kidney Pills always cure. Probably the hardest test Dodd's Kidney Pills have ever been given is in the case of Mr. C. Mattesen of this place. It is best stated in his own words "I have been troubled with Rheumatism all my life," Mr. Mat- teson states, "but I am happy to tell you that . I have received so much benefit frond,, Dodd's Kidney Pills that I canereeommend them to others," Here is a case of the longest pos- sible standing. But Dodd's Kidney Pills will surely cure it. Why' 1 Because uric acid in the blood is the cause of rheumatism, and Docld's Kidney Pills take the uric acid out of the blood by making the kidneys do their proper work. TO BE EXPECTED.

Bickle's Anti -Consumptive Syrup is an unparalleled remedy for colds, coughs, influenza and diseases of the throat and lungs. The fame of the medicine rests upon years of successful use in eradicating these affections, and in protecting man- kind from the fatal ravages of con- sumption, and as a neglected cold leads to consumption, one cannot be too careful to fight it in its early stages.

Wellington, on the Prince Edward Island Railway, says: " Four years ago I slipped in the , station and fell on. a freight truck, sustaining a bad cut on the front of: any leg. 1 thought this would heal, but instead of doing so it developed , into a bad ulcer, and later into a form of eczema which spread very rapidly • and also started on the other leg. Both legs became so swollen and sore that I could only go about my work by having them bandaged. My doctor said I must stop work and lay up. "After six months of this trouble I consulted another doctor, but with no better result. I tried all the salves, liniments and lotions I heard of, but instead of getting better I got worse. "This was my condition when I got my first box of Zam-Buk. Greatly to my delight that first box gave me re- lief. I continued to apply it to the sores, and day by day they got better. I could see that at last I had got hold of something which would cure me, e. ii• ata and in the ere. �.: u.u.
