 number of interesting reports were received from several local leagues in different parts of the state. The re- port from Norwich was especially in terestlng and was as follows: MT. s. F. Thrasher, New Haven. Conn:
 Dear sir-I regret that the Norwich Law and Order league cannot be rep resented at the annual meeting to- morrow; especially as the Norwich league would like the public to know what effective work the machinery of the state league has recently done in that city. In fact. so abortive and gem orally discouraging were the attempts Of the local league to obtain legal evil dence against law-breakers by local n ganization fell into 'lnnocuous desue- tude" for about two years.
 As final effort the few dollars which had long remained in It's treas ury were sent to the state league to be spent in sending two trained detec- tives to Norwich.
 The result was a complete surprise. While we, of course, knew in a gen eral way that the laws relating to H. quor selling, gambling and disorderly houses were frequently violated, we did not suspect to what extent, and, above all, had no idea that 1t was pos sible for two men in few days to lay open the whole system of law-breaking in our city and to collect a mass of such clear, positive and exact evidence that the guilty could not hope to break 1t down. Indeed, 1t bore the very stamp of truth and was bound to carry con viction to the mind of any unprejudiced judge or jury.
 It is sufficient to say that the Nor wich league has won every case that 1t has brought Policy is no longer played here, ,disorderly houses are closed and Sunday liquor-selling has received a very serious check-if not wholly stopped.
 We know that these reforms will not be permanent without eternal vigilance, but we do feel that so long as the state league can maintain its effective de- tective machinery-by working in con junction with tive shall have always at our command a power which the law-breakers of our city respect and fear no other.
 Respectfully yours,

A Novel Check system.

The Fairhaven and Westville street
railroad system has just adopted new
scheme of identifying passengers. Of
late the company have been troubled by
passengers giving transfer checks to
friends, who used them and saved fare.
To prevent this set of miniature faces
is now printed on each check. The first
is of a smooth faced man, the second
shows the head and face of mustached
man, the third wears side whiskers, and
the fourth has a full beard. The next
head is of a woman wearing hat, and
by her side is a woman wearing a bon
net. As each conductor punches trans
fer, he punches one of the six faces, and
only those bearing a resemblance to the
original passengers are able to use the

However, 1 fully intend marrying some

"Still it Moves"

The advancement in the healing art
caused by the discovery of Compound Oxy-
gen and by its use, though opposed by many
physicians whose chrome, and therefore,
remunerative patients are cured by it, can
no longer be denied. In spite of these, ''the
world does move" and we have on our re-
cords the names of over one thousand ply
sicianS who have either taken the remedy
themselves or who have used it in their
practice.
Asthma, bronchitis, catarrh, consumption,
dyspepsia, neuralgia, nervous proStration,
rheumatism, are diseases which the doctors
call chronic, meaning that they continue
long time, often during the life of patient;
but these, as well as acute diseases, have
been cured in numerous cases and are still
cured by the inhalation of our Compound
Oxygen This remedy has been in use for
nearly a quarter of a century. Its merits
are known. We can furnish abundant and
irrefutabe evidence to its wonderful eff
cheney in the cure of disease and debility,
and We will gladly do so. Write us and
we will send you, free of charge, our book
of two hundred pages, with a history of
Compound Oxygen, and numerous testimO-
malls and records of surprising cures.
We have both home and office treatment.
The former is sent out by express, to be
used at home: the latter is administered
here. Consultation free. The Treatment
does not leave behind any of the evil effects
which too often follow the use of drugs.

The Gospel of Courage.

stands in his store and says: GLOW shall
1 meet these obligations? How can en-

through the prayer, the Lord Jesus
Christ says to that man: 80 man, l have

Hon. S. NJ. Owen Arrives.

Hon. S. NJ. Owen, Populist candi-
date for governor, arrived from
Minneapolis last Friday afternoon.
1t is usually the case to have a CON-
mittee meet so distinguished g. per-
sonage at the depot. but not one
member of the party showed up to
greet the man whom they hope to
see governor of Minnesota. Mr..
Owen looked at the usual crowd on
the depot platform, but failing to
see any members OF his party around
got into the bus and was driven to
Hotel Buchanan. A Democrat was
the first to catch him at the hotel
and introduced other Democrats.
E. s. Smith, one of the recent con-
yerts, who, by the way, was de-
feated for the Democratic nominal
ton for county attorney, finally
showed up, and when last heard of
was closeted with Mr.. Owen.

Donnelly has put his O. X. on the
fusion legislative ticket, and it now
awaits the action OF the voters.
Donnelly for the United States SEN
ate is aninspiring war cry fora Dem
Ocratic campaign.-MOrrisOn County
Democrat.
Thinking Democrats will necessa-
rily think with the Democrat, as
sounded in the above utterance that
Donnelly for the United States SEN
ate will sound death !snell to the
Democratic party in the state Of
Minnesota. Should Donnelly sue
coed in going to the United States SEN
ate as the result Of fusion, the Demo-
cratic party will forever he dead in
the state of Minnesota, for all think
ing people would desert the ranks of
party that would be responsible
for bringing such a discredit upon
our state. Donnellyism has no good
in store for any one except Donnel)y.
He would simply look upon the
people as his means OF climbing to
fame and the interests of the people
would at. all times be second to
those of Donnelly.
The public is yet fresh in the rec
election of Donnelly's request that
everything else from governor OF the
Estate of Minnesota to coroner of the
counties should be sacrificed to elect
members to the legislature favorable
to DOnnelly. The Morrison County
Democrat does not feel jubilant in
DOnEellY's endorsement of the fusion
of Populists and Democrats in the
46th district, and there is strong rea-
son for this.

Political Notes.

Government is for the people and
should only place such burdens in
the nature of taxation on the people
as will secure all the advantages of
united efforts in securing to the peo-
pie the advantages OF civilization.
When the burdens of taxation go
beyond this, government itself is q
burden. Morrison county for sever
al years has been paying a heavy
burden in taxes to enable a few
county officials to live in luxury.
People made no great objection as
long as the future of the county was
left clear, but when the county gang
started out to mortgage the county
by issuing $4,000 in orders per an
NUN in excess OF what the present
extremely high taxes pay, it was
time to- call q halt and place in
charge a new and less greedy set of
officials.
Have you noticed the scramble of
the Democratic leaders to pick up
the gauntlet thrown down by the
Republican committee in the
Transcript? They have evaded in
every manner a discussion OF the
financial situation of the county
through the press, now will their
speakers do the same thing when
challenged'to a public discussion be-
fore the voters?
The Democratic "rally" at Green
Prairie Thursday evening, which was
addressed by Thos. Bailey, John
Mcdonald and Alex Van Praag, was
largely attended for a Democratic
meeting this year. Three men were
present besides the speakers. On the
hand bills which were scattered
broadcast over that town were the
words ''come out and hear the
TRUTH" It is highly probable that
those three men who attended the
meeting are chuck full of truth now
morning as they had an opportunity
to absorb all that vas intended for
the township.

small children with occasional aid

her suffering with peritonitis and in
a critical condition. She was with

ment to 90 into the loaning business
on land or any other security? Do
we want to pay for experiments Of
this and that kind like the Argentine
Republic is sinking under now?
That comparatively small govern
ment has lost more than$2O0, O00, 900 in
the experiment. Do we want to
follow it? 1t has been tried by
France and was disastrous. France
got out Of it as soon az possible. but
not till it cost the people Of France a
dear lesson, same as it will cost
the people of this country il they try
it. 1t is unnecessary to continue
this argument against these poll
cies. Those who study them honest
" must conclude against them.
Demagogues may build up on them
and the people pay for the expert
ence. But the people will in time
come to what is right. Sometimes
they may be slow and get of the
track, but time will bring them right,
for the majority intend to do right.
Don't forget that the government
does not exist Independent Of the
people. The government is the peo-
pie and whatever mistake the
government makes is paid by the
people. Don't leave certainties for
uncertainties. When you know a
thing is safe stand by it until you
have a certainty of something better
and don't rely on demagogues to tell
you, for they will deceive you in
order to get in power. Don't rely
on the mercy OF foreign countries for
they have none in a business way.
II they ca tch us at disadvantage
they will use it. The Republican
party is American in all it's claims
as we'll as it's acts. 1t is the party
that for more than a generation
previous to 1892 was in power and
no nation on earth ever had such a
period of prosperity. The claims Of
the party are positive to the world.
It recognizes no class above any
other class. 1t gives to every citizen
the same right. It's foreign policy is
clear and stable and it is weak in no
essential where America is involved.
10 return the party to power will
re-establish the relations that ex-
listed the last few years it had con-
troll and in the light of subsequent
events the party can and will bring
about much needed legislation in the
industrial questions which are more
fully understood today than at any
previous period in the history of the
world. The Republican party is the
only party that has passed many
laws for the protection OF the tOilers
Of our nation. Life is earnest and a
matter Of fact and circumstances
remain to be handled as they :ac-
tually exist. The sum! total is that
the .surest and quickest way to
bring new era OF prosperity and
progress is all along the line to re-
turn the Republican party to the
and administration OF
upon a certain and es-
tablished basis and bring about
through that such reform measures
as are plainly and bv reason shown
to be good. Vote .intelligently and
the result will be a Republican VIC
tory.
