BrRMINGHM Ala, Aug 10
After two days session the Kolbite
and populite state committees and
Kolb leaders adjourned this after
noon aud gave out proclamation
to the people of Alabama, which,
taken in connection with q statement
from Kolb, said to have been made
after adjournment to a gentleman
here, that he proposed to so to
Montgomery and be sworn in as
Governor when the time came, leads
to the belief that the scheme of the
Kolbites is to attempt the establish
ment of a'dual government in Ala
bama
It has been current street rumor
all day that they propose to organ.
ize their own legislature, composed
of as many Of the elected populists
as would 60 in with them, and 9th
ers who, they claim were elected.
The Kolb lerders have been very
mysterious in their meetings an(
undoubtedly have some big scheme
on foot, They expect to get tn,
sentiment of their following at tn
mass meetings called Aug. %, anC
it is expected if they are then as
sured the proper backing they vii
undertake to organize governmen
Of their own.
The organization of alleged lay
and order leagues as recommends,
in the proclamation is believed to b
for the purpose of carrying out thi
bold scheme.

Saving
Is Cents.

1t is fact which all leading physicians
admit, that nine times out of ten a patient
will recover without the assistance of a
doctor. With the advance of general knowl-
edge people understand better what to do
for themselves. Medicines in themselves
can not cure; Nature alone can cure but
medicines help Nature Take an illustra-
ton. Let US say you have sick headaches
occasionally, with dizziness, sour stomach
and loss of appetite. You do not need to
go to doctor, for every one will tell you il
is biousness and that what you need is a
liver pill to clean out the bowels and arouse
the torpid liver to action.
In this case you can buy many different
kinds of liver pills but the best course is to
secure the liver pills and also some TONIC
PELLETS for purifying the blood and
toning up the system so that you will not
be troubled again
You can get both of these medi-
cines, in separate boxes, for one price
les cents you ask your druggist for
RamOn'S Tonic Liver Pills
and Pellets. Together they cure
biliousness and constipation.

without the intimate knowledge
of the results of woman's labor,
think that she is a detriment to
a political cause. But why, we
ask, if she is, do all parties take
SO lively an interest in procuring
her aid where the law allows her
to act ? The democrats of Colo
RADIO have just been brought into
harmonious concert through her
talent and concentrating power.
The republicans are lauding
to the skies a woman
who is constantly on the platform
advocating their cause. And we
are not of that class of men who
believe that the men who are
conducting the different party
campaigns and watching every
result are unwise enough not to
know that womans' support is
not going to damn them. For
our part we wish every woman
in the nation was populist;then
populist would be our next
president. Our trust is he will
be anyway; but if it is, much
credit for that success may justly
be given to women. But this is
a subject we very much dislike
to keep writing upon. Woman
suffrage is a thing, or privilege,
that is coming as sure as light
comes to day and needs no par
ticular advocate but the simple
developments of nature, and it is
as useless for mankind to stand
back and make up wry faces
about it or put in little, petty
snarls against it as it is for a
a dog to bay at the moon. Nature
has decreed it and it will prevail.
1t is but few years until every
state in the union will adopt it
and, then, the only wonder in the
minds of all good people will be,
why did we not adopt this way
at an earlier day.

The secession of Senator Jones
of Nevada from the republican
party is peculiarly significant
just at this time. Both of the
old parties are uncertain where
they stand on the silver cues
ton, but the republicans are
making unusual efforts to acquire
capital in the West as the pecul-
lar defenders of the prosecuted
white metal. Like the demo
Gratis, they have done nothing
for silver at Washington-indeed
aside from the representatives
of the mining states, they have
been almost solidly against it
but they have distinctly outdone
their rivals in the warmth of
silver platform protestations of
friendship. This attempt to nail
platforms over official records
has been rudely disturbed by
Senator Jones. Mr.. Jones is a
remarkable man. He is one of
the few silver senators whom
every monometallist respects.
r r
He does not cheaper himself like
his colleague, Stewart, by inces.
SAINT garrulity, but when he does
launch a speech it is veritable
treatise on economics. A speech
by Jones is an event, and one in
a session is enough. When he
has finished the argument on his
side of the question is exhausted.
Naturally Mr.. Jones is an author
ity in the silver states. His
words carry weight, and when
he says that the party with
which he has acted in the senate
for the better part of genera
ton cannot be trusted on the
silver question it will take a
good many platform compli-
ments to balance his assertions.

were saved when God drowned

wives. When | see the nine, it

When [ see the queen it reminds
me of the Queen of Sheba, who
went to hear the wisdom of Sol
onion, for she was a wise woman
as he was q man. She brought
with her fifty boys and fifty girls,
all dressed in boys apparel, to
see whether King Solomon could
tell which were boys
and which were girls.
King Solomon sent for 100 basins
of water for them to wash them
selves in; the girls washed to
their elbows, and the boys only
to the wrist. So King Solomon
told by this"
We'll" said the Mayor, 'you
have given the description of all
of the cards in the pack except
one."
(Which one is that ?" asked
the soldier.
"The knave," said the Mayor.
II will give your honor a de-
scription of that, too, if you will
not be angry"
81 will not" said the Mayor,
''if you will not term me as the
knave."
"Well," said the soldier, "the
greatest knave is the constable
who brought me here"
81 do not know" said the
Mayor, whether he is the great
est knave or not, but I do know
that he is the greatest fool"
When I count the number of
spots in a pack l find 365, the
number of days in year. When
I count the number of cards in a
pack find that there are fifty
two, or as many weeks as there
is in the year. And I find four
suits, the number of weeks in a
month. [ find there are twelve
picture cards in pack, repre-
senting the number of months in
year and, on counting the
tricks, find thirteen, the numb
er of weeks in a quarter. So you
see, sir, that the pack of cards
serve for a bible, almanac and
common prayer book"

Soldiers Prayer-Book and HInanac

The First Sergeant marched
the soldiers to church. When
the parson had read the prayer
he took his text. Those who had
a bible took it out. One soldier
had neither bible nor com
mon prayer book, but pulling
out deck of cards spread them
out before him. He looked on
one card and then on another.
The Sergeant saw him thus en-
gagged and said to him, Richard,
put up the cards. This is no
place for them"
''Never mind that" said Rich
ard.
When the services were over
the constable took the soldier a
prisoner, and brought him before
the Mayor.
"Well," said the Mayor, "what
have you brought that soldier
here for ?"
And the constable answered:
For playing cards in church,
your Honor"
"Well, soldier, what have you

ed the Mayor.
