Sam Jenes on the Third Partylsm.

Canadian Record.
The third party, or partyo OF the third
part, or whatever you mary call IL, may
get to heaven but they will never get
to Washington. It's not on the way.
Washington is the wickedest place on
earth. 1t is the home OF the devil.
The average Democratic and Republic
can politicians are little better than
~rascals, but the third party man is a
fool. You can reform a rascal, but
did you ever try to monkey with a
fool
They want to borrow money from
the government at = per cent. when
the government is now borrowing at 5.
We hear a great deal of fool talk about
the rich mar getting richer and the
poor poorer under u present law.
There never was a greater lie, and I'll
prove it. There is nothing the matter
with the law. It's the man that's at
fault. There's a lawyer on that side
OF the house who makes twenty thOuS-
and a year. Here's a little pettifog-
ger whose family are starving. The
law is not to blame. Here's a physi-
clan making ten thousand a year.
There is a little doctor over on the
other corner who can't make his salt.
The law is not to blame. l preach
nearly every day to 5000 people, and
there's a little preacher sitting behind
me that can't average 200. The trouble
not in the law, brother, it's in your
n0ggin.
The difference is organic. If all the
wealth in the United States were d.
vided out to-day each man would get
about SLIGO, and in less than six
months some would be riding in palace !
and Others would be walking
,ross-ties, and bowling for another
iivy.

THE REASON WHY.
Memphis Commercial.

Memphis Commercial.
\ correspondent asks us why it is
that so ''many thousands have lost
faith in the two old parties and joined
the Populists il that party is as worth
less as We represent it. 80 many
thousands" is a rather vague express
sion, but let that pass. The explana-
tion is easy. A man who is the victim
OF Il stubborn disease often gets i'm
patient, loses faith in his regular
physician ana becomes the prey of any
ignorant and constituencies Quack
that may come along with Il patent
nostrum warranted to cure everything
from leprosy TO %ingrowing nails. Many
a nan has been killed by Quacks be-
cause he didn't have the patience to
get well slowly under the care OF a
competent physician. And that's
what's the matter with a good many
people in this country. D%emagogues
and political charlatans thrive upon
the calamity and the credulity Of the
discouraged poor just as the Quacks
thrive upon the w~retchedness and
desperation Of the discouraged sick.
Hard times always bring to the sur
face a lot Of demagOgues whose pre-
tcntion to leadership would, In quieter
times, have been greeted with derision
and contempt, and people begin to eX-
pertinent with political nostrums and
desperately incur the danger Of de-
struction in the desperate hope of
finding a cure. Any thoughtful man
who will let his eye sweet over the
job lot OF politicians that populism
has called to the front and make a
note OF the fo0l-bOrn schemes they
have invented, must readily admit
that nothing but the folly Of despair
could have made possible such men
and such measures. 1t Is one Of the
worst features OF hard times that such
political Quacks are raised up to ag-
grayate the evil they profess TO cure,
to obstruct the operation OF effective
remedies and gather spoils from the
miseries of the people. They are the
creatures of evil conditions just as the
maggot is the creature Of corruption
and stencil 4 manifestation Of decay.

Two Lives Saved.

Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of Junction City,
H., was told by her doctors she he'd con.
sumption and that there was no hope for
her, but two bottles of DIR. Kings New Dis.
covery completely cured her and she says
it saved her life. Mr.. Thomas Eggers, l39
Florida St., San Francisco, suffered from u
dreadful cold approaching consumption,
tried without result everything else then
bought one bottle of DR.. Kings New Dis
covery and in two weeks was cured. He is
naturally thankful. 1t is such results, OF
which these are samples, that prove the
wonderful efficacy Of this medicine in
coughs and colds. Free trial bottles at j.
