cold Mt Cripple Creek.

The best way to get there is over the
Santa Fe Route. The fabulously rich
gold mining district of Cripple Greek,
Colo, is attracting hundreds of people.
By spring the rush bids fair to BIZ enor-
nous. That there is an abundance of
gold there is dem onstrated beyond doubt.
Fortunes are being rapidly made.
To reach Cripple Greek, take the Santa
Fe Route, the only standard guage line
direct to the camp. Through Pullman
sleepers and chair cars. The Santa Fe

FALSE ONCE, FALSE EVER.
Preston County Journal.

Preston County Journal
When the Popocratic orator comes
around this year to try to fool the
plain people, farmers and working
men, ask him if he did not, as Dem
ocrat, advocate the election of Grover
Cleveland four years ago. If he did,
call attention to the fact that he adj
vocated Cleveland S election on plat
form which declared that the limited
coinage of silver provided by the
Sherman Act OF 1890 of 1890, 900
ounces a month was a menace to our
currency, likely to depreciate it, and
that such depreciation would hurt the
two most defenseless classes, the
farmers and iaboring men the most,
by reason Of which the repeal OF this
act was demanded. y Call his attention
then to the fact that while four years
ago he preached that the coinage of
A, 500, 900 ounces per month by the
government on government account
and sustained by the government S
honor and credit was dangerous to
farmers and workingmen he is now
preaching that the salvation of the
farmer and laboring man lies in let
ting the millionaire silver miners
bring their billions of ounces of silver
to the minis and have them coined at
pockets to pay their debts, buy their
goods, pay their wage-earners with
dollars worth s. cents. Then ask him
when he lied, in 1892 or now, and if
he really thinks there is anystruth in
him at any time.

4 soNd OF BRYANAwATHA.

He Is gone the silver spouter,
From the plains Of far Nebraska
To the slopes Of Wimasokka.
Where the famous Rip Van Wrinkle
Passed so many years in slumber,
And emerged with pains rheumatic,
But without his good dog Snyder.
But unlike poor Rip Van Wrinkle,
He has had host in Hinkley,
When they talked Of various matters,
They went to the Roosi called VOL
fert's,
Where the festive Hill Is roosting,
Always keeping one eve open,
Always looking for the main chance
In this vale Of woe and sorrow.
Thus did speak this wandering Willie,
From Platte Valley in Nebraska
Dave, love you. very truly
And If you help to elect me,
Help to send me to the White House,
On patent silver ticket,
You may take possession after
1t win be your turn, dear Dayey,
And my eloquence will watt you,
Where your heart and soul are center
ed.
One good turn deserves another.
Then did speak up David Bennett, !.
Yes, as sure as I'm prophet,
With his finger on his nose point,
In that cute and clever manner
In which humorists portray him:
Brother Willie from Nebraska
I'm as guileless as an infant
That is cutting its first eye tooth,
Still think we can't swap horses
When we haven't got the horses.
There's a fellow named Mckinley,
You have heard OF him doubt not,
And be has an opaque body
That's between us and the White
House,
81 have preached against free silver,
And though am fashioned hollow
So my tenets can gulp down,
Still the gulp it is large Que,
Wait however, wait little,
Till | see which way the cat jumps
At the coming State convention;
After that you'll ha We my answer;
I'll he wild We or agin ye."

Make the Most of Yourself.

II is the duty of every man to make
the most OF himself. Whatever his
capacities may be, he is sure to find
some place where he can be useful to
himself and to others. But he cannot
reach his highest usefulness without
good health and he cannot have good
health without pure blood. The blood
circulates to every organ and tissue
and when it is pure. rich and healthy
il carries health to the entire system,
but if it is impure it scatters disease
wherever it flows. Hood 5 Sarsaparilla
is the one true blood purifier. Itcures
salt rheum, scrofula, catarrh, dyspep-
STA and rheumatism because these dis
eases have their origin in the blood.

REPUBLICAN STATE PLATFORM
Adopted at Parkersburg, West Virginia,
July 2e. 1896.

Adopted at Parkersburg, West Virginia,
July ee. 1896.
We earnestly, heartily, and without
any reservation. endorse the able and
patriotic platform adopted by the Ma
tional Republican convention at st.
Louis, emphasizing especially its utter
ances in favor of protection, reciprocity
and sound money. We are more than
satisfied with the candidates, and pledge
to Mckinley and Hobart our untiring
and earnest support until they shall be
triumphantly elected.
We condemn the Populistic- Anarch-
istic- Democratic platform adopted at
Chicago, for its vicious attack ON the
Supreme and other Federal courts, upon
the enforcement of law. The Repub-
hcan party is unalterably in favor OF
righteous laws, wisely enforced We
condemn the Chicago plan of campaign
for its imputation upon the honesty and
patriotism of the American people. We
are confident that the great heart of the
American people beats responsively to
the principles of truth and righteous
ness. We condemn them for their An
arcnistic attempt to array class against
class. The interest of one is the con
Germ of all.
We commend the last legislature for
industry, intelligence and economy. We
point with pride to the fact that it ac-
complished all needed legislation within
the constitutional period Of 45 days and
saved the people many thousands OF
dollars, as compared with the last DEM
ocratic Legislature. We most heartily
approve the action of the last legisla-
ture in declining Internationally the
offer TO make a settlement of the State
debt of Virginia, existing prior to the
first day of January, 1861, upon basis
fixed by Virginia-a basis SO clearly I'M
fair and unjust, as to make it manifest
that no settlement was desired. We are
firmly of the opinion that the state OF
West Virginia has long since done all
that should be required Of it toward
making settlement Of that debt. Vir-
ginia has refused to meet onr commits
sioners appointed for that purpose, and
has arbitrarily set apart one-third OF
that debt to be paid by West Virginia
and issued certificates for their pay.
ment. These certificates are misleading
and do great injustice to West Virginia.
We do not believe that West Virginia
owes one cent of that debt and are OPP
posed to any further negotions on the
subject.
We are in favor of perfect equality
| before the law, in the matter of taxa
ton. We declare the present system Of
forcing the agricultural classes to pay
taxes on their debts to be manifestly un-
fair and unjust We demand that our
present assessment law be so changed
as to allow farmers the same privileges
which are accorded to other citizens Of
our State.
We can not too strongly endorse and
commend tho able, patriotic and states
Inanlike conduct of our beloved senator
ana congressman III the performance Of
their duties in our national legislature.
We cordially invite all persons who
believe in the principles and policies set
forth in the foregoing resolutions to
unite with Us III eleeting the nominees
OF this convention and the National Re
publican ticket.

What does the laboring man lose?
On Saturday night he takes his six
bogus dollars home and his wife goes
