ENvIRoNED WITH DANGER.

The dweller or temporary sojourner in ma
larious region of country is environed with dan
ger. Besides inhaling at every breath an atmos-
plere saturated with an infectious poison, he
also drinks water which is in most instances
likewise fmpregnated with the fever and ague
breeding ,aiasmata. If bilious subject, def
cient in stamina. or irregular in habit of body
or digestion, his peril is much increased, as these
abnormal conditions are extremely favorable to
the contraction of malarial disease. But this
danger may be safely encountered with the as
sistance Of HOstetter's Stomach Bitters, which
completely nullifies the atmospheric virus. and
neutralizes the constituents of miasma- tainted
water. This benign antidote to disease eradi-
Gates and prevents fevers of an intermittent and
bilious remittent type, besides effccting thor

LAnOR RIOTS.
Washington. Sept. 23.-Cohen made 40
attempt to.dsy toinafch the mob Simms,
the negro arrested Saturday for striking an
officer during the riot, was in the police
court to-day. .Juegs Smell in giving de-
cision on the case said lie held that Cohen
had excited a feeling Of riot among the more
deluded and ignorant class, that unless check
ed, might lead to serious results. While
Cohen worked this sort Of thing he was sharp
enough to keep ont Of the way Of the law
and his followers became the victims. All
meetings and professions similar to those
held by Cohen were riotous and disorderly.
The property and lives Of the people were
endangered and should death result from
any of the'e proceedings each follower Of
Cohen was smenable for homicide. 1t should
be stopped. The working men could gain
nothing. Cohen was nobody and could do
them no good. The accused was one of Co.
hens victims who had become worked into
feeling Of riot because of hi, teachings
and waesomewhat excuseable. He would only
6ne him ten dollars, or, In default, 80 days
in jail. The fine was paid by Cohen.
Cohen called on the superintendent of
police this morning to inquire If he could
hold meeting to night. The city superin
tendent informed him that he had no author.
ity to give him permission to hold meeting,
a. the hall was under charge of the United
States marshal. While Cohen was talking
with the superintendent an order came
from the district commissioners directing
the superintendsnt not 70 allow any more
noisy or disofderly demonstration any
where. The orders were promptly issued
and the police are dispensing crowds when.

Pathological Explanation Which
Throws Light Upon Campaign Canard.
10 correspondence from Swan Lake We
referred ina mild and christian like manner
to the ungentlemanly operations of W. w.
Aurner In connection with republican
meeting held at Swan Lake last Wednes.
day night We have since learned that Mr..
Aurner has told great many people in
fankton that the Swan Lake meeting was
composed of eighty people, that he was
given an opportunity to speak and that at
the conclusion Of bis brilliant remarks q
vote wssstalaen which resulted IN sixteen
for Bennett and all the rest for Tripp. This
is all right. excepting:
1st-That instead of eighty people pre-
sent there were not more than forty, which
was probably all that could be crowded into
q little school house like the one at Swan
Lake
2d-That Mr.. Aurner was not given an
opportunity 10 speak and did net speak. ex.
cept in the way of rowdyish interruption
of the meeting which amounted to q call
for three cheers for Tripp-
3d-That there was no vote taken at the
meeting, and had there been one taken it
would have stood for Bennett. With the ex-
ception of five. four. of which would have
been cast Mr.. Aurner and three young
rowdies whom he took with nim" to the
meeting to assist him in creating distur.
bance.
We desire to deal gently with such ur-
fortunate creatures as Mr.. Aurner and not
to unduly parade his weaknesses before a
criticising public. He is chiefly unfortunate
in having superabundance of bowels and
a paucity Of brains and whenever any un.
usual activity occurs in the former he i'm
agines that the latter is evolving something
Of tremendous importance to the world
That's all tha. ails Aurner.
