BOSS LELAND WINS.
Runs the Republican Convention without
Opposition.

RunB the Republican convention WlthOub
Opposition.
The Republican State convention to
elect delegates to the st. Louis con-
Vention met at Hutchinson March 10.
It was called to order by Chairman
Leland, and after prayer by Rev. Sage,
q colored clergyman of Ottawa, OK
Chief Justice Horton was elected Tenn
pOrary Chairman. Chairman Horton
referred in his speech in glowing terms
to the Republican party as the party
of principle and progress, apparently
ignorant of the fact that the C0nVen.
tiOn representing the party had no
principles and was waiting for the ma
tional convention to state their princi-
pies for them. Speeches were made by
George T. Anthony and Senator Cor
don of Wichita. The committees were
then announced. George I. Anthony
was made Chairman of the Committee
on Resolutions. He is q single gold
standard adherent.
The fight of the convention was over
the election of six delegstes-at-large to
the national convention. The names
presented were those of Cy Leland, 7.
J. Anderson of Topeka, N. G. Barnes
of Kansas City, Senator John G. Car
penter of Chanute, NJ. M. MurdOck of
the Wichita Eagle, G. A, Swensson of
Lindsborg, and A. p. Riddle OF Min
neapolis. The fight was really be-
tween Murdoch and Carpenter. Muir.
dock was on the Leland slate and
Carpenter was not. A large number
of the administration people were op-
posed to Murdock, the prohibitionists
objected to his liberal position on that
question, and his we'll known silver
views caused him the loss of still other
votes. The vote showed a majority of
lS over Carpenter. The others were
elected with little opposition. The
slternates are: w. B. Townsend,
Lesvenworth; Tom Anderson, John
son county; w. H. Nelson, CoWley;
E. L. Shsfer, Morris; L. NJ. Walker, ,Os
borne; George Huycke, Ellsworth.
The three electors at-lsrge we're then
nominated, and they are as follows:
Thomas E. Thompson, Howard; John
r. Hamilton, Norton, and Green
Keith, Lawrence.
Special attention is called to the res
olutiOns. The last one, which indorses
Leland, precipitated fight, but it wa
easily carried. The first resolution is
a wonderful one. 1t ought to cause
the heart of every Republican to swell
with pride because of its clear enun.
citation of party principle. So far as
principles are concerned, 1t contains
all that the party has, except, of course,
che principles embodied in the sue
ceedlng resolutions in relation to

able that it cannot be doubted that
every reader wants to see them, 30
they are here given In full:

"The American people from tradi
tlon and interest favored blmetallism,
and that the Republican party de-
mRnded the pse OF both silver and gold
aS standard money with such restric-
tiOns to be determined by legislation 40
would secure the maintenance Of the
parity Of the two metals so that the
purchasing and debt-psying power Of
the dollar, whether gold, silver or
paper, should be at all times equal;
that the interests of the producers Of
the country, It's farmers and It's work
lngmen, demand that every dollar,
paper or coin, issued by the govern
ment should be aS good as any other.

The finance plank adopted is ss follows:
"The American people from trsdi-
ton and interest favor blmetallism,
and the Republican party demands the
use Of both gold and silver 90 standard
money with such restrictions and under
such provisions to be determined by
as will secure the mainte-
nance Of the parity Of value of the two
metals so that the purchasing and debt
paying power Of the. dollar, whether Of
gold, silver or paper, shall be at all
lines equal"
The Seventh district convention was
Vt Wichita. Long was renominated by

"lt is the sense Of this convention
that BY wise legislation the annual out
put Of the silver mines of our country

without disturbing the equal value of
ouE gold and silver coin; we therefore

THIS MEANS YOU.
Your Past and Your Present Con-
trasted.
How Terribly You have Changed
Since Then.
-
An Exact Picture Of Your Present Condition.

How keenly the vision OF the past comes
home to thousands, and with how sharp
a pang do we regret our vanished health
N strength AS In a dream, we remem-
Der our sturdy youth, o~yerflowing with
boisterous vitality. We recall our strong
and lusty past, when our nerves seemed OF
steel, our muscles of iron and our power
Of endurance knew no fatigue.
How different is the picture when we
suddenly find ourselves with weak and
shattered nerves, tired brains ayd exhaust
ed bodies, depressed and dispirited,
broken down alike in nervous ard phys
ical health
and energies in youth and early life. We
use them up in business, work, pleasure
or dissipation, and suddenly find ourselves
old before our time, Frustrated in health,
exhausted in brain and nerve power, and
left without physical energies, nerve
strength or ambition. Then, likS the prod
igal, we would return to our former CON-
dition of strength and health.
Luckily for Us, there is that great and
wonderful restorative, DR.. Greene's Ner-
vura blood and nerve remedy, which will
give back to the weakened and exhausted
sytem the strength Ii has lost; the mar
vellous remedy which imparts strength
and vigor TO brain add nerves, vitalizes
and %invigorates all the physical powers
and restores Us again to that grand de-
I gree of lusty strength, of bounding pulse
and strong physical and nerve power,
which, in Ignorance or folly, we have ex-
| hausted.
Here is the proof: Mr.. John c. Milroy,
who is a foreman OF the Meriden, Conn.,,
Britannia Co., has for years been noted
for his enormous strength. This great
strength he lost, and now he has recov-
cred it again by using DR.. Oreene's Ner-
vura. "Over a year ago." he says, 81
suffered terribly from nervousness, head
ache, lack of appetite, and that tired
feeling all the time. | tried several rem
edies before ! started i'm on DIR. G~reene's
Nervura blood and nerve remedy, and
found that DIR. Greene's Nervusa blood
and nerve remedy was just what l wanted.
"When l first started TO use this remedy
/ had fallen to 1876 pounds. Now i weigh
a little over 1873 pounds. l have always
been considered about the strongest man
in town, and in order to keep up my rep
utation in that respect shall keep on us
ing DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
This greatest and grandest OF medicines
DIR. Greene's Nervura blood Inc nerve
remedy, Is the discovery and prescription
of the most successful specialist in ner-
vous and chronic diseases, DR.. Greene, of
"a Temple Place, Boston, Mass, who can
