A Weekly Budget of Interesting News
from the Capital.

from the Capital.
WASHINGTON, July 3l.-Every day it
becomes more apparent that republicans
must win their fight without depending
upon the aid of kicking democrats, who
by talking as though they might vote
for Mckinley and Hobart are merely
seeking to make the republicans so over
confident that they will not work as hard
as they ought. The. number of golddem-
ocrats who will vote the republican tick
ct are not likely to be numerous enough
to be factor in the election, and many
of those who say they will do so will
wind up by voting for Bryan. Why, Mr..
Cleveland, the head and front of the gold
democrats, cannot even keep MS cabinet
in line. HOke Smith is the only member
who has yet openly come out for Bryan
but there are excellent reasons for the
belief that at least four members of the
cabinet will vote for Bryan, and a gen.
eral breakup of the cabinet in the near
future will not be surprising.
1t having been stated by officials of the
knights of Labor that the labor organi-
cations of the country were practically
solid for Bryan and free silver, MIR. Geo.
W. Meyer, of Minneapolis, Minn., presi-
dent of the JOurneyman Stone Cutters
association, of North America, who has
been in Washington on business, was
asked for his opinion. He said:"Th lab
or men in Minnesota will not make mon
ey an issue in this cOmpaign. While
there are many who would like to see the
free coinage of silver become law, yet
they will not vote for it. They will vote
for protection. / found this same Senti-
ment in Wisconsin, Iowa, and the two
Dakotas. While of course, in the Dako-
tas the silver feeling is strong, prOtec-

labor is strong factor in politics, hav-
ing only recently shown its strength by
nominating Loren Fletcher for a third
term in Congress, although he is opposed
to the free coinage Of silver without in
ternatiOnal agreement, and his rival for
the nomination was pronounced silver
man. Labor men will not support Nc
Kinley because they love him, but be-
cause Of of the principle he has always
advocated.

Nerves are weak, many people say,
and yet they do not seem to know
that they are literally starving their
nerves. Weak, pale, thin blood can
not give proper sustenance - that is
why you are nervous, tired, exhausted.
The cure for this condition is to
purify, vitalize and enrich your blood.

faithfully, and the rich, red blood,
