Never has there been such a crowd of
people on the Port Omaha military reser
vation aa was assembled there Friday af
ternoon o enjoy the closing drill of the
famous Second United States cavalry. Con
rervative estimates place the number be
tween 10.000 and 13,000. The Florenoe street
car line beyond Ames avenue was not ablo
to accommodate the crowds and many peo
ple walked to the Fort on Thirtieth street.
Several ' special cars took out a host of
the delegates to the League of American
Municipalities convention, and among other
distinguished guesta was Governor Sheldon,
a-ho was given the honor of the governor's
alute of eleven guns upon his arrival on
the grounds. . .
The mounted drills were much the same
as those of Wednesday and Thursday af
ternoon, the entire regiment, except Troop
M. participating irt the saber exercises. The
fancy mounted drill by Troop m, mo
"Orsy Horse" troop, was more elabo
rate than that given the two preced
ing afternoons and Included the saber ea-
erclses given at a full gallop. The Intricate
winding evolutions of the troop were given
The Stomach Does
v Hot Cause Dyspepsia
Neither Will It Cure It Because The
Lark of Gastric J nice
Prohibit IU-lief.
The stomach la a strong, powerful or
gan, which Is composed Of muscles of
greut strength. It Is filled during diges
tion with gastric Juices which, when the
stomach, extending and compressing the
food, dissolve It and separata the nourish
ment from the waste matter. If however,
these gastrlo Juices are lacking, the stom
ach la not capable of digesting the food
because It has not the tools with which to
work successfully.
The gastric juices when In a perfect
state do away with all foul odors, fermen
tation and decay, reduce the food to a dis
integrated mass and the stomach then
Dresses It Into the lnteatinaa ihi. .nnihar
form of .digestion takes place. Then the
Intestines take from this mass of food all
that Is nourishing and give H to the blood.
The waists , matter Is thrown from tho
system. ',
If Instead of nourishment the Intestines
receive Impure deposits combined with a
poisonous and imperfect, gastric Juice, it
can be readily seea that they mut turn
such Imperfect nourishment into the blood.
The blood then being unable to give each
part of the body that which It requires,
. becomes Impoverished and dlseas ia ipred
broadcast.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets corrects such
a condition at once. If the gastric Juices
are lacking and Imperfect these tablets do
their work Just the same. They build up
the elements In the Juice which are lack
ing and remove those elements which cause
disturbance.
Meat, gralna, fluids, vegetables and deli
cacies. In fact each portion of a large meal
have been placed In a glass vial and
Sturat's Dyspepsia Tablets have digested
them 'to a perfect fluid Just as a healthy
stomach would do.
A large complex, hearty meal holds no
terrors for a dyspeptic if Stuarfa Dyspep
sia Tablets are used. Abnormal eating,
late dinners, rich foods cause ill effects to
the stomach, but when Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are used one may eat when and
what one will without danger of dyspepsia
or discomfort
Forty thousand physicians endorse and
prescribe Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and
every druggist carrioa them In stock, price

Hon. C. Slemp, Congressman from
Virginia, whose home address la Big
Stone Gap, Va., writes:
"I can cheerfully aay that I have used
your valuable remedy, Peruna, with
beneficial results, and can unhesitat
ingly recommend your remedy to my
friends aa an invigorating tonto and an
effective and permanent cure for ca
tarrh." Mr. Boaa Craig, Fork Vale, Tenn., had
catarrh of the head for two years and
had abandoned all hope of being cured,
but to his surprise Peruna cured him
sound and welL
unstinted applause as were the evolutions
of the entire command.
Wireless Telegraphy Tests.
. Following the drill a public demonstra
tion of wireless telegraphy as given under
the direction of Lieutenant W. N. Haskell,
assisted by Sergeant Tergerson and Opera
tor Gilpin at the temporary field station and
Corporal Adams and Private Robbing at
the big wireless tower. The demonstration
waa given Just west of the balloon station.
After the conclusion of the exercises of
the afternoon, Colonel Glassford enter
tained a number of the distinguished vlsl
tors at his official residence on the Fort
Omaha grounds.
The pleasure of the afternoon waa some
what marred by a heavy wind blowing,
carrying with It volumes of dust, making
It extremely disagreeable for the spectators
ru?ar the roadways. The dust did not In
terfere with a full view of the drill, as the
evolutions were carried out on the parade
ground, which has a heavy mat of grass.
In connection with the wireless telegraph
experiments, It may not be generally known
that the Signal Corps of Fort Omaha holds
the world's record for long distance wireless
field telegraphy. This record was made
last fall between Council Bluffs and Omaha
by a detachment under command of Cap
tain C. B. Hepburn.

The visit of Judge W. H. Tafc to South
Omaha Thursday evening was sn Occasion
great enough to last over for dsys and be
the chief topic of conversation throughout
the city. The republicans are wearing more
cheerful faces thsn ever before.
Dr. H. W. Blsbaugh said: "I was much
pleased with the address of Mr. Taft, and
especially the fearless way In which he took
hold of and Explained his court decisions
on the labor question. His language was
so clear end simple a child could grasp all
Its meaning, and yet It was (oreeul and
fearless. It Is bound to have a good effect
bere. In spite of the garbled reports and
falsifications of the democratlo press, which
pretending to be fair, dared not quota cor
rectly a single statement of the Judge, the
meeting waa a great success. ,
"Bryan, I am willing to grant, might be
a conservative man If he were elected, but
If we can Judge of the men he appeals to
nd the men who most prominently follow
him among the workmen, I submit that
they are a dangerous following. They are
men blovy) about by every wind of doctrine
and led easily to extremes."

WIRELESS MAKES LOUD NOISE
New System of Telegraphy Gives
Women Some Novel Ideas
of Science.
During the wireless telegraphy demon
strstion at Fort Omaha Friday afternoon
a large number of women were grouped
about the field station which was located
a short distance west of the hydrogen gas
plant. A large steel gas retort Is being
built Just adjacent the gas generating house
and a number of men was employed driv
ing and clintchlng bolts In the tank. The
pjunding inside the tank could be distinctly
heard at the field station and. mistaking
the noise for the clicking of the wireless
messsges, one woman vouchsafed the In
formation: "Who would have thought that
the messages could make such a aolse.
They sound Just like common telegraph
messages but are so much louder,"
HULLESS OATS OF ENGLAND
Exhibit Will Be Mad hy Johnny Ball
at National Corn Ei
poaltlon. England will show hulless oats at the
Nalonal Corn exposition and the kernels
will all be sterilised, that no one may get
hold of half a dosen of them and make a
fortune producing the hulless variety be
fore the plant breeding station of Great
Britain aro ready to give the wonderful
grain to the world.
If an American farmer could get a hand
ful of the oats which will be exhibited by
England, within six years It Is estimated
the farmer would realise from $150,000 to
$300,000 on the oats which he could produce
from the seed, provided the vsrled climate
and soils of America will produce the new
variety.
But England Is to take no chances on
the seed getting distributed and the life of
every grain will be extinguished before
the oats are brought to Omaha,
The producing of a hulless oat means a
great saving in milling. The big cereal
mills of America will welcome the advent
of the oat which will mean such a de
crease In the cost of milling. The devel
opment of the variety thus far show that
uch oats will have great commercial
valuo, and It la hoped tho oats wilt prove
adaptable to the varied climates and soils
of at he United Etates.
The management of the exposition has
received tho assurance of Prof. T. R.
Garten of the leading plant breeding sta
tion In Europe, that EYigland will make
an. exhibit showing the progress made dur
ing twenty-seven years of careful plant
breed Png. Prof. Garton will attend the
exposition himself and deliver a lecture on
"How New Breeds of Farm Plants Are
Obtained."
Among the accomipHshmenti of Prof.
Garton and his asslstnts In the great plant
breeding stations of Europe, Is the cross
ing of the wild oat with the cultivated
varieties, which has produced a vigorous
plant with a strong, rust resisting straw,
as well as a large, plump berry.
Secretary of Agriculture James Wilson
and D. B. T. Galloway, ohief of the
bureau of plant breeding of the depart
ment, have appointed A. B. Shamel, corn
breeding expert, as the special representa
tive to tho National Corn exposition. Mr.
Shamel is a former Illinois man and has
a large experience In corn breeding and
Judging. In Omaha he will be superin
tendent of Judges at the National Corn
exposition. Mr. Shame! is the author of
standard works on the corn plant and
other agricultural subjects.

SPRINGING CAMPAIGN BOMBS
Amazing Power of Explosive Letter.
in Presidential Contests.
INCIDENTS OF FOEMER CAMPAIGNS
Recollections of the Stir Cansed hy
the Morey Forgery la 18SO and
the Mnlllcaa Letters ta
18)6)4.
The Archbold-Foraker letters and the
blowing up and out of Oklahoma's governor
serve to recall similar episodes In the cam
paigns of 1880 and 1884. Garfield, the re
publican candidate In 1880, was obliged to
abandon the campaign Issues for a time.
and glvo his attention to defending himself
against the attacks, made upon him on ac
count of his alleged connection with the
Credlt-Mobiller scheme, the so-called salary
grab, by which the salaries of members of
congress were increased, and the charge
that ho had, while a member of congress,
accepted $5,000 to vote. In favor of a bill
of the Board of Publlo Works of Wash
ington to pave the city with the De Golyer
wood pavement. Towards the end of the
campaign he had to spend much of his time
in denying the authenticity of the famous
Morey letter.
In 1884, James G. Blaine, the republican
candidate, was forced to devote most of
his stump speeches to explanations of the
"Mulligan letters." He had explained In
detail, wlille he was speaker In tho house
of representatives, but he had to go all
over the matter again when he waa a pree-J
Identlal candidate. Moreover, he met with P
several unfortunate Incidents In the course
of his campaign, notably the Burchard In
cident, which, his friends have ever since
asserted, was responsible for the loss of
New York state, and his defeat. More
letters turned up In the campaign of 18KR
which attracted public attention. Among
these were the Dudley "blocksrof-flve" let
ter and the "Sackvllle-West" letter; both
undoubtedly had some effect In the cam
paign of that year. Sensational letters and
Incidents have also figured In state and In
city campaigns.
The 31 ore r Letter.
The Morey letter referred to above was
Intended to Injure Garfield on the Pacific
coast. In 1880, the Chinese immigration
question was agitating the country. On Oc
tober II. twv-tve days before the election,
New York newspsper published a letter
purporting to have been written by Garfield
on Janur.ry 23 of that year to one H. L.
Morey of Lynn, Mass. The communication
appeared to be a reply to a letter written
to General Garfield fer the purpose of ob
taining his views on Chinese cheap labor,
and was as follows:
linrRF, OK RKPRESKNTATIVKS,
WASHINGTON. TV C, January 23,
1NSi Iar Mr: Yours In relutlon to
the Chinese problem came duly to hand.
I take It that the question of
plores ia only a question of private and
corporate economy. Individuals or com
panies have the right to buy labor where
they can get It the cheapest. We have a
treaty with the Chinese government which
should be rollglously kept until Us provi
sions are abrogated by the action of the
general govrroment. and 1 am not pre
pared to say that it should bo abrogated
until our great manufacturing Interests sr
eonserved la the matter of labor. Very
truly yours. J. A. GARFIELD.
To H. L. Morey, Employers' Cnion. Lyna
Mass.
The letter, which waa In hundwriting
something like Garfield's, waa headed "per
sonal and confidential." and was reproduced
In newspapers throughout the country. It
produced consternation ia the republican
ranks, as it wti feared that the letter,
whether genuine or not, would lose General
Garfield the electoral votee of- the Pact fie
states, where there waa such a strong sea
tlment against Chinese Immigration that
party allegiance was likely to be forgotten.
The day after the publication of the let
ter In New York, Garfield sent the follow,
lag U'lcgrsm, from ills home In Mentor, O.,
to Marshall Jewell, chairman of tbe repub
lican national committee: "I will aet break
the rule I have adopted, by making a publlo
reply to campaign lies, but I authorise you
to denounce the so-called 'Morey' hatter as
a bold forgery, both la language and senti
ment. Until its publication I never heard

of the existence of the Employers' Union
of Lynn, Mass., nor of such a person II.

On October $3, when Garfield received a
copy of the New York newspaper contain
ing a lithographic fae-slmlle of tbe alleged
letter, he telegraphed to Mr. Jewell aa fol
lows: "Publish my dispatch of last even
ing If you think best. The letter la the
work of some clumsy villain, who cannot
spell, nor write English, nor Imitate my
handwriting. Every honest and manly
democrat In America, who la familiar with
my handwriting,- will denounce the forgery
at sight. Put the case In the hands of the
ablest detectives at onoe, and hunt the ras
cal down." An Investigation showed that
no such person as H. L Morey Hved at or
near Lynn, Mass., at the time the letter was
dated, and that no such an organization as
the Kmployera' Union ever existed 1n Lynn.
Garfield's opponent In 1830, General llan
eick, had nothing to defend on tle stump;
but he made some blunders. The tariff
wis then an Usue of some prominence, but
Hancock did not seem to appreciate It. He
airily disposed of the whole affair by say
ing that the tariff was only a local Issue.
This was very much like Croker's famous
declaration In .1900: "Where le the sense In
all this fuss about the free coinage of sil
ver at U to 1? If we find that this ratio
doesn't work, we can increase it or lower It
as often aa we wish. I am In favor of gold
und silver, and all kinds of money and
plenty of it." Hancock's tariff declara
tion Injured htm greatly, and was perhaps
the main cause of his defeat at tbe polls,

speaker of the house of representatives
but they served effeotlvely in the national
campaign. The democratlo managers scat
tered copies of them ail over the country,
with the purpose of showing that Blaln '
had used his Influence In the house of rep- .
reaentattvee In- favor-of corporations, and
had profited largely In consequence. On
the strength of these letters, he was ac
cused of having received $04,000 from the
Union PeeWlo Railroad company for ser
vices rendered. .
There were other accusations, also' based
on documentary evidence, that, he was In
terested In the Credlt-Mobiller company.'
The charges against Mm ware, lil effect.,
like those brought against Garfield In 1880,
and now against Senator Forsker. The
story of the Mulligan letters was brought
out In 187. when the democratlo house of
representatives passed a resolution provid
ing for the Investigation of an alleged pur
chase of certain railroad bonds by the
Union Pacific company. It was evident
that the Investigation was directed against
Blaine. At the second or third meeting of
the committee, many of Blaine's letters to
Warren Fisher, Jr., of Boston were pro
duced by James Mulligan, who had col
lected and Indexed them very carefully. Be
fore they were read publicly, Blaine secured
control of the letters, which were supposed
to show that the charge against him was
well grounded; and on June t, 187, he made
a dramatic defence In the house of repre- '
aentattves by reading some of the letters.
His defence was ssftlsfactory to the repub
licans of his own state. A month later he
waa appointed by the governor of Maine as '
a member of the United States Senate, to
fill the vacancy caused by the appointment
of Senator Lot Morrill aa secretary of the
United States treasury, and waa elected for
a full senatorial term In 181.
