I'.H'J. to Death CLARK CALLS FOR HARMONY Urges Democrats to Stand Together and Be Honest and Intelligent. PARTY NEEDS MANY MORE VOTES lie Says "tralixhteat Road to Com plete Snceese la to Deserve Con fidence of Insurgents and Independents. WASHINGTON, Jan. .-Speaker Champ Clark's speech at the Jackson day din ner here, tonight was an appeal to all those who are opposed to "standpatters" and to "stai.dpat" policies to "stand together, pull together and work to gether." The only hope of the country for progressive legislation, he declared, lies In tle democratic party because the "standpatters" nie In the majority among the republicans. Referring to the split of the republican party, the speaker said It looked as though nothing short of a miracle could bring the warring fac tions together, but at the same time he warned against depending for success upon opponents' dissensions. WiU Aid of ItlpobLcaus. 'Demmrnts desire progressive legisla tion." said Mr. Ctarlt. "Independents and divers republicans want it. Tho ma jority of the American people favor It. Tho only way to achieve it Is at the hands of democrats. The Insurgent re publicans would, no doubt, enact some remedial legislation If theV could, but the standpatters are In the majority In that party and It looks as though they will continue to dominate It Indefinitely. It may be for years and It may bo forever. Thy have control of the republican ma chlno and they will run it over the In surgents ruthlessly. The Independents, having no separate party organisation, wilt make tlnir Influence felt at the polls by voting for those candidates who ap pear to moat nearly approximate their standard; but as they can entertain no toasonablo hope ot remedial legislation from the republican party so long as It Is dominated by tho standpatters. It Is to be hoped that they will give us their aid and comfort by voting for demo cratic! candidates this year. As tho in surgent republicans can achieve nothing except when working tn conjunction with democrats they would most easily and most certainly accomplish their purpose by voting for democrats all along the line. We are politically somewhat In the same condition which wise old Ben Franklin described himself and his compatriots to be In when, after signing the Declara tion of Independence, he exclaimed: 'Now, wa must all hang together or we will all hang separately.' IVerd Many Votes. "One thing Is clear as crystal," con tinued the speaker, "In order to win we must hold aTt the voters. w-e had In 1908 and draw to ua about 800, ow who were against us then. Consequently It Is of supreme Importance that wo enter the Impending contest thoroughly united In purpose, in principle, In policy and In heart. 'The results of tho November elections demonstrate conclusively that the repub lican campaign canard which haa been overworked many times to the effect that democratlo supremacy breeds panics has been exploded forever, for the places where national Issues and national lasues alone wero considered were the very places where democrats did the best. Thla was notably the case In Massachusetts and In Joe Taggart's congressional dis trict In Kansas and In Dan V. Stephen's district In Nebraska, "On matters of principle there should be absolutely no compromise even to se cure and retain unity, but each and every one should be willing to yield on non essentials which are not matters of prin ciple for the general good In the efforts which we are making for better govern ment. nenablleana Are Deutorallaed. "The republicans se-oin to be utterly demoralised and split to pieces It looks as though nothing short of a miracle will reunite them. It Is not, however, the part of wisdom for us to rely for success upon their dissensions, for they may acci dentally get together. That their quarrels. unless composed, will help us there can be no question. Our chief reliance tor suecewi Is to give to the people such, a record for honest. Intelligent, courageous. constructive statesmanship as to Convince the country beyond the shadow of a doubt that we are worthy of the continued and enlarged confidence of the public. That IS the stralghtest. plainest, shortest and easiest road to complete success. Pur suing that line o conduct, victory will perch upon our banners, whether the re publlcana patch up their differences or not. We hold our own fortunes absolutely In our own hands. Vet os not lose our golden opportunity through overoonfl dence or upon Ili-advUcd rellaace upon Ihe quarrels and factional fights among our opponents." Wrei-k Near Fargo, X, U. FARGO. N. D.. Jan.

Carter Ike and the pond at Miller park were also crowded with throngs of skaters from -the north part of town.

Since an impure condition of tht blood is responsible for the trouble, a medicine that can purify the blood i. the only hope of a successful cure; and it should be a medicine that not onlj cleanses the circulation, but one that at the same time restores the blood tc its normal, rich, nutritive condition. S. S. S. is lust such a remedy. It is made entirely of healing, cleansinjj vegetable properties, extracted from na ture's roots, herbs and barks of the forest and fields.
