Cables Position and Gest ignoring
HIS Pledges


HTS Pledges
Mr. Cable has never broken his prom.
Use. Gest has not only broken all bis
promises that were worth ANYTHING, but
ne has. in addition, worked hard
to misconstrue the truth when
be was not actually living.
He told Fred Hsss that he would intro
duce the visduc; bill and he did not do so
until urged repeatedly and until be final.
y saw there was no way of getting out
OF 1t. de persistently stated that such a
bill could not be passed He did not
want II to become law because Cap
tain Robinson did not wish i. He made
contemplate mess of the eight hour
law and acted in dastsrdly way to-
ward the workmen. Mr. Cable has given
public utterance to his views and senti
ments in this matter in favor of the
workmen. Why is he not to be believed ?
Gest has been trusted and appealed to
but the trust and appeal have both been
ignored. II Gest were not a republican
the people who are now supporting him
would point to biR with scorn. What
ever he may be in simple. quiet way ST
home he is of no earthly use in Washing
ton. Speaker Reed said in Moline that
he lad no use for a man who could
spend two years in tie house and never
be heard Has Reed not shown his con-
tempt for the m9u when he would not
recognize him when Gest wished to make
even a simple mo ion in the house? Dc
republicans think they are honoring the IN,
selves by having such man in congress
Whist kind of party spirit is it that so
beclouds mans ideas? II the demo
Gratis had such man ss n candidate how

OF appointing Petersen he told each

appoint Peterson who had 205 more thar
Brown Not much He put 10 the other
man and that is the reason we have a
bone to pick with him Not because he
appointed Brown do we say this, but
because he ignored the poor swedish
citizen Petersen aud at the same time
ignored the popular will of the citizens
OF this place. He insulted our peopls by
disreearding the will of the msjority in

An Illinois F .rmor with u Reputation for
Desperate Deeds Kills His Wife and
Himself
CANTON, ILL.,, Nov. 1.-THE most hor-
rible tragedy in the annals of Fulton
County was enacted Sunday morning at
Utica. ten miles southeast of Canton.
Philip 7. Smith, farmer, aged 60, had
for some time been jealous of his wife,
aged so years. Mrs. Smith had been
absent from home attending a sick
da1ghter-in-law. On her return Sunday
morning Smith at once began q
quarrel, and, throwing her to the floor,
severely choked her. Mrs. Smith got
away from him and ran into the yard.
Smith seized Winchester rifle and
followed her, firing four shots int
her body. When she fell Smith went
back into the house, exchanged the
rife for revolver and returned to the
side of his wife's body. Ascertaiuine
that she was dead he laid down by hei
side, placed the muzzle of the revolver
in his mouth and blew out his brains.
Smith was known as desperate char.
acter for years. no less than four mon
having been killed by him.

Beer AND ITS EFFECTS,
Diseases of the Heart Due to the Use {
Malt LIQUORS.

Diseases of the Heart Due to the Use OF
Malt Liquors.
Prof. Osler writes to the New York
Medical Journal that in all the large
hospitals of Germany cases of diseases
of the heart coming directly from ex-
cessive use of beer are common. Dila-
tarion of this organ seems to follow
where enormous quantities of beer are
used. Hypertrophy is another common
disease, due directly to this cause.
Some authorities think that large guam
titles of beer and hard work raising the
aortic blood pressure are the common
causes. Others assert that excessive
use of beer alone is the principal CAUSE.
In Munich. the average consumption
of beer for every individual is three
quarts day. Some of the men who
work in breweries drink from three to
six gallons day. After few years
shortness of breath comes on, with
edema of the feet, and general anasarca
of the body, and loud systalic murmurs,
then heart failure and death. Most Of
the workmen at the large Erlangen
breweries break down at forty or be-
fore, and die in this way.-Journal of
Inebriety.

lies have been noted through many
generations for special ability In liter
ature, IN statesmanship in learning, In
science, in music, etc But what con.
Germs us more in this study 10 the in-
nuence that heredity exerts on lon-
eevity. It is we'll known that many
families are almost without exception
short lived, often dying at about the
Same age Others are equally noted for
the number Of very old people found in
them. There seems to be . difference
in the stamina OF life vigor in different
families by which some are carried
much farther along the way Of life than
others are able to travel Yet even
this difference may be the accumu-
lated results of favorable or unfavor-
able environments acting on the an.
cestors Of the different families; or it
may be the result Of the accumulation
or dissipation of the original life vigor
Of the ancestry of the different families
by different modes Of life during sue
cessive generations. There can be no
question but that diseases engendered
by the violation of hygienic laws are
transmissible to posterity; and when
the causes in which the disease
originated continue to operate in the
offspring the evil goes on with accumu-
lative force till the family Lecomes ex-
tinct. This gives an awful significance
to the declaration of the Almighty.
where he says: ''For I, the Lord thy
God, am . jealous God, visiting the in
EQUITY of the father upon the children
to the third and fourth generat,on Of
them. that hate me-" Pulmonary
phthisis and alcoholism may be named
as illustrations of diseases transmissible
by inheritance which, without tho most
determined resistance. 60 on increasing
in force and destructive power till in
the third or fourth generation they
cease only for want of victims. No more
terrible legacy can be beqreathed by a
parent to his child than alcoholism. 1t
is more certain, permanent and blasting
in its effects than scrofula, syphilis OF
tuberculosis, and is less susceptible OF
remedy.-Rev. l. j. Templin, in States
