WICHITA. Kas. Tho almost mirac- I absolutely cured. It is now more than
uloua euro of hopeless invalids nuido
by Professor Samuels, of Wichita, Kas.,
have been of such a startling charac
ter that they have aroused widespread
wonder, admiration and curiosity. Time
and again ho has taken case3 pro
nounced hopelessly incurable by tho
medical profession and restored tho
patients to health In a most phenomen
al manner.
Professor Samuels came Into note
eoveral years ago by his almost mirac
ulous cure of "Blind Joe," of Topoka.
Kas., who was well known in that city
having sold peanuts and popcorn on
tho streets there for years. He had
been blind for ten years and had ex
hausted all tho means in his power to
bo cured, but had given up in despair
.until ho fell Into the hands of Profes
sor Samuels, who effected a cure.
Professor Samuels has been arrested
many times for practicing his system
Without having a diploma. On being
Interviewed a few days ago relative to
his many arrests, Professor Samuels
said:
"Yes, I have been arrested many
times for practicing without a license
but In no'caso have I been convicted.
Naturally, the medical profession are
Jealous of my success, and are fight
ing mo most 6f the time, but how are
they going to conVlct mo? Do you
suppose any Jury, when my patients
come into court, as they did at Alva,
Okla., Newkirk, Okla, Ponca City,
Okla., and other towns, and tell how
they have been cured of all manner of
trouble, do you supposo for a minute
that any Jury hearing these people
and seeing with their own eyes what
has been accomplished, is going to
convict me? My trial at Alva was be
fore a very able judge, Jesse J. Dunn,
who is now chief Justice of tho state
of Oklahoma; after hearing the evi
dence for and against mo I was ac
quitted." ' The professor here showed a reprint
from tho court records showing" tho
Ircot" Of his assertions that tho court
tad not convicted him.
"What Is the nature of your treat
ment?" was tho next question.
"That Is a secret that has taken
many years of my life to accomplish.
I can only say that my rosults aro ob
tained treating diseases by dropping a
colorless liquid, which I prepare, into
tho eye. Strange as it may seem, so
called incurable cases of consumption,
BrJght's disease, dropsy, epileptic fits.
nervous prostration aro treated in this
apparently miraculous way. My sys
tem Is based absolutely on scientific
principles. The eye Is tho window of
the soul. I have evolved a system of
treating other bodily Ills based on tho
relation of tho eye to tho system as a
whole. This may seem strange, but
hero aro tho proofs."
Thereupon tho professor placed bo
fore his Interviewer his "Messago of
Facts," affidavits and letters In great
numbers, many of them from responsi
ble and well-known people, all bearing
out his statements.
This nroved that Mr. Prank Hoff,
now In business at 249 North Main
stroet, Wichita, Kas., had been given
up to dlo of consumption. Ho had been
treated by tho greatest specialist in
Brooklyn, N. Y. It was somo seven
years ago and when he had tried every
thing else, without avail, that ho carao
to Professor Samuels and was cured.
He is a large, strong man and weighs
240 pounds now, and when called upon
- by tho Interviewer, stated that he
owed his lifo to Professor. Samuels.
Mrs. MInnio B. Tarver. living at Hes
tervllle. Miss., had -what was' pro
nounced to bo a very bad case of tu
berculosis. A largo number of her fam
ily had died from tho same dlsoaso,
among them her mother, two sisters,
one brother and one brothor-ln-law.
She had practically given up hopes
when hearings of Professor Samuels and
began taking his treatment., She "was
having fever, a cough and night sweats
and now and then a hemorrhage. She
weighed only 120 pounds. After be--inninir
treatment, she noticed an Im
provement thQ very first day. She
gained In weight until sho weighed
150 pounds, herusual weight.
Mr. Geo. Hartman. who lives at 211
To. Meridan St, Wichita, Kas,, had
what some physicians pronounced
Brlght's disease, and others called dia
betes. Various doctors, among them
' his family physician, had given him up
to die. He was so weak ho could hard
ly walk. About this tlmo he heard of
Prof. Samuels and placed himself in
v Prof. Samuels' care and showed, a
change for the better n a few weeks.
At the end. of ten months he, felt Just

Mrs. J. T. Williamson, who resides at
200 B. St. West, Hutchinson, Kas., was
almost on tho verge of the grave with
consumption and nervous trouble. For
nearly 22 years Mrs. Williamson was
seriously afilictcd and the doctors said
she had St. Vitus dance. In addition to
tuberculosis. Many leading physicians
had pronounced her incurablo and stat
ed In the spring of 1909 that sho would
be buried with tho falling of the leaves
in autumn. She-turned as a last resort
to Prof. Samuels and after starting his
treatment, Mrs. Williamson had only
ono hemorrhage of -the lungs and be

time she was able to do her own house
work. She recently had her lungs ex
amined by a doctor who pronounced
them absolutely sound and well; In ad
dition to this, tho old standing nervous
troublo had disappeared.
Mrs. H. J. Burroughs, living at Col
lins, la., and who had a serious case of
heart trouble, in a recent letter to
Prof. Samuels, states: "I have not tak
en a drop of medicine since I began
your treatment. Before that I had to
take, from ono to four heart tablets a
day. I had dizzy, blind spells and my
heart did not beat regularly at all, but
just fiutter. Now It beats regularly
and does not bother me a bit. I tell
everyone I talk with about your treat
ment and what it has done for me."
Mr. C. W. Neel, living at Broken
Arrow, Okla., had a very bad case of
rheumatism; writing Prof. Samuels in
a recent letter states as follows:
"Thank you, .Professor, ten thousand
times for your assistance In curing me
of that awful rheumatism. I am still
hard at work and feeling fine."
Mr. C. C. Miller, living near Hutch
inson, Kas., had been given up to dlo
by the best physicians in that section
of tho country with what they termed
kidney trouble. After all else had
failed ho began to treat with Prof.
Samuels. He took tho treatment for
nix months, after, which all symptoms
disappeared and he has never had a
recurrence.
Miss Daisy Hubbard, living nt Alvn, Okla., In a
recent letter wrote: "For fifteen years I havo boon

MR. BRYAN'S VISIT
It was a homo coming Mr. Bry
an's visit to the Pocket of Indiana,
except that so few -who wanted to see
him and hear could get within Evans
hall. The warmth and the hospital
ity of the greeting touched a respon
sive chord in the great commoner
and ho showed his pleasure at its
genuineness.
Mr. Bryan made, as was expected,
a great and impressivo address. It
was not so much, though, ior the
speech that tho large crowd as
sembled as for tho man. They saw
in him a man great in intellect, warm
of sympathy, strong in moral cour
age, who was returning after an ab
sence of a few years, years devoted
to fighting incessantly their battles.
It is this feeling of his vast and un
tiring endeavor in a common cause
that makes his utterances so signifi
cant, that gives his message such
vitality.
A bond of fellowship is established
between the great leader and his fol
lowers that is personal in its nature.
His auditors in Indiana feel toward
him on his recurring visits very much
as the soldiers of tho army of the
Potomac must have felt for Grant on
his return after he had been away in
the west to direct tho operations
there.
Mr. Bryan's intorest in the electron
of Mr. Kern and Mr. Boehne grows
out of a long acquaintance with them
and a conviction that they will act
in congress for what is the best in
terest of the people in Nebraska or
elsewhere as well as for the people
of Indiana. Ho is interested in their
election, aside from personal regard,
because they stand for the principles
which he has worked for so long, so
valorously and with such ceaseless
energy. Evansville, Ind., Courier.
AT INDIANAPOLIS
(Editorial in Indianapolis News-Independent.)
Mr. Bryan made a great political
speech in this city last night. He
dealt with all the national issues that
are in the present campaign, dealt
with them fairly, honestly and effec
tively. There was little mere ora
tory, but a great deal of sober and
extraordinarily clear reasoning. On
most of the new or supposedly new
questions tho speaker showed that
the democratic party had been far in
advance of its great rival. And that
is true. Direct election of senators,
campaign fund publicity, the income
tax, railroad regulation, had all been
urged in democratic platforms and by
democrats on tho floor of congress
long before the republicans or Mr.
Roosevelt took them up. Indeed,
most of these policies have been on-
posed by some of the republicans
who aro now most clamorous in their
support. No one knows even yet
what are Mr. Roosevelt's views on
the income tax or campaign fund
publicity. Two years ago, when the
democrats were making public their
contributions prior to the election,
Mr. Roosevelt opposed such publicity.
A few weeks ago he declared for.it
as though it were somo new thing.
His New York convention met and
wholly ignored tho subject. And
now the hat Is being passed as usual
in Wall Street. It is largely true, as
Mr. Bryan said, that the democratic
party has been in power for fourteen
years, though It has not been in
office. It has Influenced political
thought far more than most people
have realized. And today Insurgency
is only democracy writ small.
Mr. Bryan spoke strongly against
national incorporation of railroads
and trusts, a central bank, the tariff
commission and tho new nationalism, I
ana nis' argument was impressive.
The wholo scheme, as ho showed, was
to concentrate power at Washington
then to consolidate power in the
president at the expense of the legis
lative and judicial departments, and
then to have tho president "stand
as a sort of earthly father and take
caro of us." Mr. Bryan was right in
saying:
"This ia a doctrine from which the
world ka3 been moving. It has cost
tho work the lives of millions of
patriots to get away from this doc
trine, and God forbid that we should
go back to It. Why, my friends, I
doubt if there is any man in the
United States who would be willing
to exercise the power that Mr.
Roosevelt wants to put in the presi
dent. I do not believe there is an
other besides Mr. Roosevelt; and, my
friends, if you are willing to trust
him with this power, I beg you to re
member that ho Is only human and
may die, and then you must trust
the man who gets it when he is dead.
You can not judge a monarchy by a
good king. There have been good
kings, but there never was a good
monarchy. The doctrine is bad, and
never since the days of Alexander
Hamilton has such a doctrine been
promulgated in the United States by
a prominent man as is now ad
vanced in tho name of tho new na
tionalism." "A rising executive and a dimin
ishing court and legislature" such
is the aim of the new nationalism.
There is one feature of It to which
Mr. Bryan did not specifically refer,
and that is the demand that consti
tutions be made easy of amendment.
We aro to have, not only a, rising
executive and a diminishing court
and legislature, but a greatly weak
ened constitution. No more danger
ous scheme was ever proposed to the
American people. Secession involved
the destruction of tho union by divi
sion. But the new nationalism in
volves the destruction of tho very
system of government under which
we have lived for a hundred years.
When men in office, or men who hope
to be in office, begin to demand and
reach out for more power, it Is time
for the people to wake up to the
peril that confronts them.
In his discussion of the tariff Mr.
Bryan insisted that the commission
scheme was merely another pretense
designed to postpone or avoid action.
He did not oppose the commission
per se, but he did say that there was
no reason why we should wait for
years for its report before proceed
ing with a reduction of tariff duties.
If we must have a commission, he
said, let us reduce the tariff and then
leave It to the commission to decide
whether the reduction had been too
great. His idea was that it would
be better to allow the manufacturers
to wait for higher duties than to com
pel the people to wait for lower ones.
Mr. Taft had, as Mr. Bryan reminded
us, said that the wool schedule was
too highr Mr. Carnegie had said
that the steel schedule was too high.
Good witnesses all. The conclusion
was that reductions in these admit
tedly vicious schedules should be
made at the earliest possible moment.
Mr. Bryan denounced the republican
theory that we could make tho peo
ple prbsperous by making & few men
at the top prosperous in the hope
that they would pass tho prosperity
along. He Insisted that we should
begin at the bottom and make tho
masses prosperous by enacting wiso
and fair laws framed in the interest
of the whole people.
Such, in outline, Is the remarkable
speech delivered in this city last
night. It was that rarest of things,
a vote-making speech. Mr. Kern Is
fortunate in having such an advocate.
It was a sympathetic and whole-
