Democrats lot Without Hope.
. Democratic and populist conventions for
this county will be held June -14- for the
purpose of nominating candidates and eelect-
Ing delegates to the state and congressional
conventions. Fusion leaders of this city
Insist that they will make another effort
to capture the First congressional plum.
notwithstanding the republican majority la
the district has been growing rapidly dur
ing the last few years.
"I conrlder that the fuslonlsts are In as
good a position to win this year as they
were In the last campaign," said George
W. Berge this afternoon. "A fight will be
made throughout the district In behalf of
whoever la nominated by the fusion forces."
Mr. Berg a" was the fusion nominee for
congress In this ' district two' years ' ago
and will make a vigorous campaign against
E. J. Burkett. This year Mr. Berge wilt
probably have the endorsement of the Lan
caster county populists for goveraor, and
the county delegation will probably be in
structed to use their best efforts In his be
half at the state convention.. So far as
known Lancaster county has no candidate
for the fusion congressional nomination.

A warm breeze and fair weather greeted the

After early mess Company A held the first

to the town square and a governor's salute
of thirteen guns waa fired by the artillery.
The governor, General Colby, Captain and
Mrs. Smoke, Major Dunbar and President

Savage waa then introduced.. He spoke of
the country's honor, which tho cadets might
some day be called upon to protect. "A few
years ago," he said, "other countries looked
upon America as a commercial nation and
forgot to measure It by . the sword." He
said that the Spanish war bad well dem

colleges, for the American volunteer, al

junction with his college' military training

inconvenient and tiresome mode of locomotion there Is no more
pathetic sight than a person slowly and painfully moving- along the
street supported by these artificial limbs. , .
When Rheumatism settles in the bones and muscles of the leg!,
it is 6afe to predict that the victim will eventually' become helpless
and crutch-bound. The corrosive irritating matter that is deposited
in the joints and muscles causes the most intense pam, the knees and
ankles swell, and when the natural oils and fluids that lubricate
these parts are completely destroyed the joints become locked and
the muscles drawn and stiff, and crutches a necessity.
The acid poisons that produce rheumatic pains form in the blood, and are
distributed through the system,, and lodged in the arms, shoulders; hands,
back and feet, or ( other parts of the body resulting often in total dis
ability. A permanent cure of Rheumatism can be effected only by a complete
cleansing of the blood, and no other remedy so surely accomplishes this as
o. o. o. it neutralizes ine aciu coccis, purines ana
invigorates the stagnant blood, and the gritty cor
rupt particles are washed out or dislodged by the
new rich blood, and relief comes to the pain-racked
sufferer. . S. S, leaves no morbid, irritatincr matter
in the blood to reunite' and produce another attack, but expels every "atom
of it from the system. S. S. S. is a purely vegetable remedy, and does not
impair the digestion or general health like alkali or potash remedies. - t
