POPULIST ENTHUSIASM
gFrom lutteni received at thin office it Is
manifest that tbe bearW of tbe old pop

to warm op and tbey are making ready
lor such a light ai was never eeen in the

will pane away forever from tbe control
of tbe Mark Hanna, Imperialistic, treae

Manv people lose flesh and be
come debilitated during the hot
weather. They need a tonic that
will-enable the avHtcin to resist the
enervating effect of torrid weather,
Dr. Williaraa' rink rills for Tale
People are just that acrt of a tonic,
They have no purgative action, an
important consideration in eum-
mer. They atraigthen body and
nerves.
Here la the sworn statement of
II. K McLellan, of Hamilton, 111., '
who gained 27 'pounds by using
this wonderful remedy. He says:
"I wu mlurbl all the time much tt-
duad in flesh, snd unable to MUfttorlly
attend to ptMltMis. My wife persuaded m
to try a boa of Dr. VillUm Pink PUU
toe Pale People, and I did so. To my
lurpriie I had taken but part of a box be
fore I wu better, and three boxes effected
S relief that has been permanent.
" When 1 began to take the pills I only
weighed I3e pounds f now I weigh 163.
These pills did me more good than all the
other medicines I have ever taken My
wife has aho used them for general de
bility, and they were beneficial to her,"

and that date will also mark bis with
drawal from publla life, so tbe senator
has declared, unless be Is returned to tbe
senate without a contest. He will not
eater upon a fight for another term, but
if tbe republicans of New liumpstiire be
lieve that be eau serve them better than
new and inexperienced senator he will
accept re-election, lie realizes mat on
three Important questions bs differs with
bis constituents. He Is not In favor of
tbe single gold standard, and will not be
save, vote lor a bill which fastens that
standard upon tbe country. He is also
In favor of sincere and earnest opposl
lion to trusts, and ' believes that tbe
state leulelaturee and conarese should
control and bring within reasonable
limits all largo combinations of inoor
Itorated capital, and he says be feels the
republicans will not tie aa sincere in 00
ina-thls aathev ouabttobe, .
The senator is particularly opposed to
tbe domination of til state by the Boa-
ton and Maine railroad. Hedeclares that
ibis company, through money and free
pnsses, controls moat of tbe politicians
of bis state, and that no man can b
nominated or eleeted to any office until
1 be railroad manager think be baa
bowed the knee and put on the railroad
collar. It Is more than probable the
senator's re-election would be strongly
oimoaed and lu that event, according to
to his own assertion, be wonld opt enter
tne contest.
THE SAFER WAY.
Now that Uncle Sara baa called for vol
uuteere to help "assimilate" the Filipino
benevolently, we expect to bear of an ex
odua at once among newspaper men and
other true patriots who bare beeo bowl
ing themeelves boaree with tbe cry of
"traitor" and copperhead" at all . who
have bad the couruge to speak an honeat
conviction that waa not In accord witn
i be policy of "criminal egureaaion ' fol
lowed by the administration. Ae one
man they will rush forward to offer tbelr
lives opon tbe altar of their country
(nit). It is safer to hold a poatoffiue
ant let someone elaa no tne ngnting,
xuft.tr the bardehipa and s welter beneath
a tropical sun. Villisca Letter.

POP AFTER MCKINLEY
Senator Harris Intends to have M Kin
ley before tbe ae uateof tbe United Mtates
lor a violation of an act 'of congress.
Tbe law providing for tbe taking of the
census bus a very strong son partisan,
clause. In direct violation of tbia act ,
all the census enumerators fom Kensas
are to be republicans. ' . " "' ',
To prove that director Merrlman
promised to permit Benator Harris and
Mr, Itidgoloy to name the supervisor for
the third district, Hefiator Harris bas
tbe director's letter acknowledging tbe
promise, but expresalng regret that be
will not be able to fulfill It. In addition
to tbls, Kane tor IJarria relies vu tbe law,
which esye the census appointments
must be nonpartisan, lie claims that a
strict compliance with tba law would be
an eqnal division of the supervisors, bat
be aska only tte one In tbe district which
is represented by a populist. He will
offer in advance Senator linker's ad
mission tbat parly nteeseity demands
the appointment of a republican; tbat a
well organized corpse , of m bene numer
al ore would be a great help toward
carrying tbe district for the republicans
m xt year. When Dirtctir Werriam re
ceived Benator Baker's lelttr be passed
tbe question opto tbe president, who
Instructed lim tbat Senator Baker
might appoint the supervisors for all tbe
Kansas districts.
Heuator Harris argues tbat, tbls
amounts toa repudiation by beisicu
tlve of tbe non-partlran clause td tbe
act, and be will bring the question
squarely b fore the sepaie. m
