An effort in birij tnartu by Hie Tom
Watson faction to divide the ulitit
tercet in the Cnited Statin.
In "peaking of their Mexican trip, ex
jrovernor Crittenden said that while he
had an exalted opinion of Yr. Bryan be
fore the tour, he was more imprend
ow than ever that lie was intended to 1
the leader of our great Nation in the
atest Presidential Caoipaign.
Have our republican Wrt-tliern noticed
that president McKinley has carried
out the Cleveland policy in his admin-
intration, with hut one exception
the Urilf law. His foreign and also; his
financial policy am identical with the
Jrover I'leaveland administration. iJo
you deny it?
Among the many rare presents Mrs.
Bryan received during her Mexican trip,
one which she prizes the highest are a
pair of Australian paroiiuuls presented
Co her by the Ooverner of Guanajato,
they live like lovers, and spend most of
their time kissing .each other, w hen one
dies the other will die if a looking ghum is
not put in the cage this will do for a
time, but only for a time.
Munv of our fellow citizens have hoped
in all sincerity that the problem r.r the
jrold standard would xi solved by interna-
tioofel bimetallism. An ernest effort lias
been made to reaIi.4Uial tjope, but luust
flow be abandoned. The only alterna
tive therefore ure the continued main
tenance of the existing gold standard, or
the adoption of the silver standard.
lJenvar News.
The above ought to convince the re
publican voters, that international bi
metallism, or any otlvir kind o.r bi-met-alliam
was used only, as a blind to
iood-wial the people and help to elect
Mr. Mkiulrfv into olUce.
According to reports from Columbus,
O., to yestiinLiv's World-Herald, Omaha
Hon. M. A. lianna, who sought to lie re
turned to the U. S. Nenate had succeed
ed in Marslialing votes enough to elect
himself his own successor. And why
ahouM'al he be, he is acting in the in
tenwitu of i he corporations, trusts, Mon
opolists and above all else a faithful
xponent of the single gold standard.
Then, trie party which he so faithfully
represents in the halls of congress rati
fied his jiomination at their state and
county conventions and also, at the
November election. We have contended
all along that Mark II. mini was too
Mtute i politician to be defeated for sen
ator. Our tiieory is, that Mr. Kirtz and his
retinue I of opposition workers should
tiave wVnt in the fall campaign and
Aaeisted ihe people at the polls to rebuke
Mt Ilanna instead of waiting until it
-eras too late to break the power of the
freat tist-former and magnate, such
OMH art ' McKlsson, Kirtz and Gov.
.' Bushoell should have declared for the
Chicago Platform long Wore election if
they expected the ieople would have
confidence in their declarations, and not
wait until there was an olllce in sight to
pay tiie price of their "flop."

WOMAN'S COLUMN'
Edited by . . Mrs. ,Vo. D. Canon,
Short article from t!ic hut Ira of Slum
county are solicited.
Living and DcmuI Booms.
Tlic re are a c lass of women, un
happily lar-e who seem to Iw absolute
ly d istiUfct of i bit of S'l'ijtct of the
interior decoration and arrangement of
rooms. When they hejjin housekeeping,
they conllde a Jistof their wants to a fur
niture dealer, who supplien them with
carpet .curtains, ch.irs and tables of a
more or less commonplace character,
which he is ullowed to dispose in the
rigidly conventional manner suggested
by previous anil frequent experiments in
the homes of his various cus'omers.
To depart from this stereotyped ar
rangement, with a view of increasing the
possibilities of comfort or aesthetic en
joyment in a room, is an idea which is
never for a moment entertained by the
unambitious mistress of the manor.
The room, to her thinking, is "furnish
ed." once for all, and the matter is
henceforth practically dismissed from
her mind. The result is that the room
has a totally uninteresting and lifeless
appearance, with fno more character
about it, nor rellection of the taste of
its owner, Oljan is to be observed in a
hotel parlor or a waiting-room at a
railway station.
This is mere generally true of the
drawinir-room a cold, formal, uninviting
apartment silent as the grave, never
opened
save to admit visitors, and
pre;lud:nij by the very still ncss and un
comfortableness of its aspect, all pos
sibility of free movement, lively con
versation, or sociability in any
form.
How much more attractive is the
room that has been furnished, not on
' general principles that commend them-
selves to the trade, but with a view of
J meeting the special needs, and grati
! fying the particular tastes, of the indi-
viduals who are destined to occupy
it.
Many householders in moderate cir
cunistances, who like to live pleasantly
are learning to dispense altogether with
a draw ing-room proper, recognizing that
in its chilly atmosphere congenial inter
course was never intended to flourish.
They prefer to convert the largest and
best room in the house into a cosy and
cheerful sitting or living room. Whan
a visitor is shown in here, though the
room may 1j quite deserted, he is yet
immediately confronted with numerous
proofs of the existence of one or more
cultured and agreeable persons under
thu roof. A bowl of fresh Mowers on
the table diffuses a delightful fragrance
tt cU.irming contrast to the confined and
cliilly atmosphere of the room that
is never opened except for visitors.
There are growing plants in the win
dows, whose healthy freshness speaks
of daily and loving attendance,
A few new magazines or illustrated
papers and the latest novel, with the
convenient leaf-cutter in close proxi
mity, are lying carelessly on a corner
divan which is heaped with comfortable
cushions. A little clock ticks cheer
fully on the mantelpiece. The piano
is open. Some one has evidently been
trying a new song the score is still
on the stand; a banjo or a guitar at
test the vicinity of another player. On
the writing-table, which is well sup
plied with all tho necessary materials
for correspondence, some letters are
lying ready for the post.

A Library In Itself.
Few people are able to buy as many
books as they would like yetit is imposs
ible without them to keep in touch with
all the leaders of literature, as well as
to follow the world's progress in every
department of science and industry. The
Yorni's Companion already provides the
means for more than half a million
housholds -at an expense to each of
$1.75 a year. Every issue of the com
panion gives as much reading matter as
a 12m6 book of 175 pages, and the
companion comes every week. The
quality of its contents is shown by the
announcement for 1H(H, which promises
contributions next year from the Rt.

Ohio l'rosjM'rHy.
The American Nonconformist, of
Indianapolis refers to the mortgage re
cord of Ohio for last year as reported
by the Secretary of State. It appears
that there were 71, SOB mortgages given
aggregating fT8,744,!j03, and only 51,323
were released, representing $59,235,928.
This shows that 20,000 more mortgages
were recorded than were released, re
presenting $20 000 000 increaso of ludebt
edness.
Slaves of the Thread Factory.
There are women in the flax mills of
I'aterson, N. J., who work ten hours a
day, ankle d-ep in dirty water aud
breathe an atmosphere like that of a
Turkish bath. They receive $5.70 a
week. There are other women in these
same mills who work ten hours a day
and at every breath take into their lungs
a fine dust that breeds early death lis
surely as do germs. They receive $4,50
a week. Coming Nation. '
They Seem to Like it.
How tenderly modern society cares
for the homeless, the aged and the worn
out workers. Have you noticed that
the homeless can go to prison, the aged
to the poorhouse, and the sick can go
the devil? And that is about all that is
cared about them. Rights of man. .
Who Owns New York.
According to the New York Herald
which has recently investigated the
matter, Manhattan Island is owned by
an astonishingly small number of per
sons. One-half of the land is owned by
170 families, with, says tho Herald, '
very few owning the other half." Out
of 2,000,000 residents l.HOO.OOO have no
interests whatever in the island except
as renters.
One Year of Prosperity.
"Prosperity does not mean siirqily em
ployment. Employment may mean dis
aster if the employed are receiving star
vat ion wages and paying monopoly
prices for necessities. After one year of
Republican party prosperity the poor are
crying for bread and the rich are seeking
entertainment. In Cook County alone
there have been more morgages fore
closed, more homes swept away, than
ever before in the history of the country
Three hundred mortgages a week is the
pitiful record of foreclosures during this
prosperous year.
'But the monopolists have prospered.
The pawnbrokers and money sharks
have prospered. The poor pay 10 per
cent month when thev must; they
sell properly at half value it n3cassary
to procure cash with which to buy food
and clothing if they have to, and
then somebody is the gainer. Ex-O-over

How To Find Out
Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four hours,
a sediment or settling indicates an un
healthy condition of the kidneys. When
urine stains linen it is evidence of kidney
trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate
or pain in the back, is also convincing
proof that the kidneys and blader are out
of order.
What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy
fulfils every wish in relieving pain in
the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and
every partof the urinary passages. It
corrects inability to hold urine and scald
ing pain in passing it, or bad effects fol
lowing use of liquor, wine or beer, and
overcomes that unpleasant necessity of
leing compelled to tret up many times
during the night to urinate. The mild
and the extraerdinary effect of Swamp
Root is soon realized. It stands the
highest for its wonderful cures of the
most' distressing cases. If you need a
medicine you should have the best.
Sold by druggists, price fifty cents and
one dollar. You may have a sample
bottle and pamphlet both sent free by
mail. Mention Tub Sioux County

Kilmer & Co., Binghampton, N, Y. The
