Webster Visits Des Moines.
During the past week Hon. John I
Webster of Omaha paid a vlsft to Des
Moines. His coming was unannounced and
but few knew of his being here until after
he had gone away. Not many of the
politicians of state-wide Influence are In
the city at this time, but the fact that he
mnV Hinn with a few at the Grant club
and met a few of the politicians led to the
belief that he was here seeking support
in his candidacy for the vice presidential
nomination. Mr. Webster made a good
impression on those whom he met, and It
is , believed by many that he will be able
to secure substantial support In this state.
Among some of, the politicians there Is a
feeling, however, that the Iowa Influence
Is to be saved for 1908, when It Is expected
that Iowa will again have a candidate
for the presidency in Secretary Shaw or
Governor Cummins, and because of this
Iowa will not be desirous of taking a con
spicuous part In urging anyone for the
vice presidency.

the "Dead March In Saul."
The funeral has been provisionally fixed
for the end of this week, to enable Lord
Edward Cecil, who ia on his way from
Egypt, to assist.
The physicians met at 'Hatfield house to
night and issued to the press a brief de
scription of the final stage of the Illness,
which confirms the dispatches already ca
bled by the Associated Press.
Views of the French.
PARIS, Aug. 23 The death of Lord Salis
bury mads considerable Impression here.
Although the late statesman had retired
from politics, the feeling prevailed here
that his disappearance will contribute to
strengthen the position of Colonial Secre
tary Chamberlain, which circumstance Is
not thought . likely to promote friendship
between the two countries. The ability,
prudence and moderation of the former
premier are frankly recognized, though
some of his sarcastic utterances are re
called. It Is acknowledged that while he
firmly upheld Great Britain's Interests, at
the same time he always strove to prevent
a rupture with France, and It Is admitted
that the Faahoda Incident would have been
far more dangerous had any other states
man been In power.
A Letter to Onr Readers.
NEW HAVEN, Addison Co., Vt
Dr. Kilmer ft Co., Blnghamton, N. T.
Gentlemen About a year ago I was suf
fering from what I supposed was rheu
matism. I became so bad that I could
hardly get on my feet from a sitting po
sition. I run down In weight from 1 to
145 pounds. I tried different kinds of medi
cine but received little or no help, I saw
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root highly recom
menaea tor Rianey trouble, but I never
had any Idea that my kidneys were affected
I thought I would try a 60-cent bottle of
Swamp-Root and see what the effect would
be. I commenced taking It according to
directions and In a few days J saw that It
was helping me. I used the t0-cent bottle
and then bought two mora dollar bottles,
and they completely cured me. I have got
back to my original weight, 196 pounds.
and I am a thorough advocate of Dr. Kil
mer's Swamp-Root. Very truly,
WILLIAM M. PARTC.
