Everything mean and conceivable was brought to bear to beat him. :o: . The opposition to Miss Foster for a third term was not very consistent in their opposition to her when they voted for two officials and elected them, one for the sixth term and another for "SOLD TO HIGH FINANCE!" On Ihe day that Joseph Pulitzer died his great newspaper, the New York World, printed a nota ble editorial. It bore the heading, "Heaping the Whirlwind," and in part it read as follows: "There are those who think that the substantial business structure of the country is break ing down under tho trust assaults of the federal department of justice. This is wrong. What is giving way is a false superstruct ure built up in years of political iniquity which sought to roof in the whole power of government for selfish individual use. The main structure trembles under tho shock, but no more. "The finanical debauch which beset this country from the elec tion of 1890 has had no parallel in modern times. That election was a victory for sound money, as the people understood it. It was the execution of a bill of the country's sale to high finance, as Mr. Hanna and his followers un derstood and gave notice. "How this private property in government was capitalized into individual pockets is written large in late history. The tariff was first given another uplift, and then, with the Spanish war out of the way, the suppression of com petition to get the full private benefit of tariff swept through the country like a whirlwind. Trusts and trusts and trusts rose in scores; millionaires were made in a day; the shadow of the billion aire appeared; and captains of high finance sought a ratification of special bargains in the WhiU house itself. "They built up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity. They sowed tho wind. Has anybody supposed tho whirlwind was to be avoided? U had to come; it is here; and the sooner the inevita ble reaping is over Ihe better." That is a courageous utter ance, coming, as it does, from a newspaper published in the shadow of Wall street, and from a newspaper, too, that used allots powerful influence in behalf of the party which, in the campaign of 1890, executed the "bill of the country's sale to High Finance." The entire country paid the bitter cost then. It has been pay ing it through all the years that have intervened. And it is still paying the innocent along with the guilty. For fifteen years, under that bill of sale, high tariff extortion has been practiced, trust extor tion has been practiced, monopoly has been bulldcd and buttressed, until now the condition has be come such that it is no longer en durable Tho process of de molishing what has been built is beginning and "the main struct ure is trembling under tho shock. ' How different might be the con dition had the history of the last fifteen years been written other wise! How different if govern ment, for fifteen years, had de voted itself to protect ing the peo ple, enforcing the laws, denying special privileges and restraining with an iron hand tho onward sweep of monopoly! It is heavy, heavy usury that has been paid "the saviors of the national honor" in 18901 World Herald. :o: . Starts Much Trouble. There is littlo danger from a cold or from,an attack of the grip except when followed by pneu monia, and this never happens when Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy is used.

Maxwell. WIN Glidderi our With a team of 3 perfect-score cars, Maxwell is the only one of 64 compet itors to finish the gruelling 1454 mile journey withouta single penalty. Another Maxwell entered by Gov. Hoke Smith, of Georgia finished with a perfect score, competing for the individual prize and was awarded the Anderson trophy. THREE Maxwell Cars which left New York on October 14, finished thtir 1454-mile journey at Jacksonville with a perfect score and were Awarded The Gliddcn Trophy Of 64 of America's leading cars, fome costing S5.0C0 each, which competed in tht most gruelling con test in motor car history, the Max well came through as the Only Team With Perfect Score Whirling over the road at rail road speed, plowing through mud and sand, fording swollen streams, pcunding over the Appalachian Mountains through a cloudburst, and surmounting obstacles that no ordinary tourist would ever meet, they led the way into each control with time-table precision and justly earned the title of A. A. A. National Touring Championship They completed their daily jour ney 01 the exact schedu'e. although several times the committee con ducting the event had to extend the fixed schedule time to offset une pectedly difficult conditions met with. The Maxwell never needed thcze extensions. The victory of the Maxwell en tered by Gov. Hoke Smith in the Anderson Trophy contest gives all prizes offered to Maxwell. The Maxwtll victory is made more remarkable by the fact that it Duplicates Last Year's Triumph in the Glidden Tour when Maxwell likewise achieved the best team score. This undisputed evidence of re liability of Maxwell cars is no sur prise to the 47,000 Maxwell owners who have learned to know the de pendability of the car through years of consistent daily service. No car ever made has achieved a record approaching the Maxwell registration in New York State, which shows 91 per cent of the cars made in 1905 still in service in 1911, after Seven Years of Continuous Use All the 1912 models of Maxwell cars bristle with gocd points of de sign, construction, power, and style, which make them undisputed lead ers in the' motor world.

Tho Proof Is In Plattsmouth Al most at Your Door. The public statement of a Plattsmouth citizen is in itself strong proof for Plattsmouth peo ple, but confirmation strengthens evidence. Hero is a who testified years ago Doan's Kidney Pills relieved sick kidneys and now states the cure was permanent. Can any suf ferer from kidney ills ask better proof? You can investigate. Tho case is right at home. Herman Tiekoetter, Ninth and Day streets, Plattsmouth, Neb., says: ' I never used another that brought as great benefit as Doan's Kidney Pills. My kidneys were disordered and there va9 a dull, tired acho across the small of my back that distressed me a great deal. If I stooped my back pained me severely and in the morning when I arose I felt as tired as when I went to bed. Hearing Doan's Kidney Pills high ly praised, I procured a box at Rynott & Co.'s Drug Store, and it was not long before I was entirely relieved." (Statement given June 8, 1006.) NO TROUBLE SINCE. On December 29. 1908, Mr. Tiekoetter said: "I cheerfully confirm my former endorsement of Doaii'a Kidney Pills. I have had no troublo from my kidneys since this remedy cured me."
