Down with Altgeldism.

Outside the defeat OF Bryan nothing
gave so much qualification to the great
mass Of the voters throughout the Union
as the defeat OF Altgeld, the Popocrat-An-
archist candidate for governor Of Illinois
his candidacy attracted universal interest
because of the abhorrent principles be rep
resented, and because, even moro than
Bryan, he expressed the spirit and the sem
timent OF the Chicago platform. His
crushing defeat in Illinois is notice to
him that the American people do not like
anarchy or anarchists of the Altgeld and
Tillman stripe.

DssGRAcEFUL ACTIONS n Tux c0USrY
The law requiring the polls 10 DC
opened &C sunrise was not complied
with in HenricO county, at least not in
Smithers precinct, where the law de-
! flying registrar J. X Syrcle, holds out.
The polls did not open until about 8 :l5
O'Clock and then lt was evident that
the Negro had no rights politically
that the whites were bound TO re-
spect Three booths had been pre-
pared for the judges but for some un-
accountable reasOH-only one was
used. An average of three whites to
one colored were voted every or 10
minutes.
Marshall Ward polled heavy vote
for the republicans. but not enough TO
offset the heavy odd against them,
The first precinct narrowly escaped
being Republican on the presid entail
nominees. The Silverites won by "a
plurality for Bryan and "a plurality OF
Lamb over Judge l.. l.. Lewis, the Re
publican nominee for Congress. A
larger gain than ever before.
The Second Marshall has registered
vote of 81 colored republican, voters
the total vote cast was a IA for
Mckinley and 500 for Bryan Judge
Lewis received 141 votes, while Cap
tain Lamb got 374 which shows that
many Silverites and Sound Money
Democrats helped to swell the 90 votes
to IA
The Third Marshall made a better
showing; 377 votes were cast for
Mckinley while his opponent received
597.
Many colOred voters live in the Third
Precinct, and nearly one-fourth either
stayed away from the polls or their
ballots were thrown out as defective.
, However our colOred element rallied
glOriously for Mckinley and protec-
ton, and altogether made the best
| showing than has ever been known OF.
: Thanks TO the efforts of Mr.. o. NJ.
Steward (colored) who had been sworn
in as Judge in the Third Precinct,
many of the ballots of the Illiterate
colored citizens were prepared correct
r ly by him, thus saving many ballots
Z which otherwise would have been
thrown out. The total Republican
I vote was S4l Mckinley against l $40

Tho Senator We. Right.

Senator Stewart was right when he said
IN debate Ia congress 30 years ago: "I do
not care how much you discuss IL or how
many resolutions you pass; they do not
make any difference. You must come to
the same conclusion that all other people
have-that gold Is recognized as the uni
versal standard OF value. 10 is the measure
that must be- used. 1t is the measure by
which wealth must be tested, and whether
IL be pennies or millions matters not; it is
the measure that must test all wealth."
1t is very evident, too, that the Amer
lean voters agree with him. They have
preferred Co believe what he said in 1874
rather than what he has said in 1896

The pestilent Altgeld has been swept
under by the tide in spite OF all his strug-

Bryan, and In spite Of having a weak adj

Illinois have taught him that the cham

Poor Indeed!

There are degrees and kinds OF
poverty, just as there are diff
ferences of opinion among those
who compute and measure poverty
and riches by different standards.
Some men deem themselves poor
because they are less rich than
others, again there are compara-
lively poor people who are satisfied
with a competence. There is a
kind of poverty for which no amount
of wealth can compensate, namely,
a poverty of bodrly stamina, evinced
by nervousness and arrangement
of the functions of digestion, bilious
secretion and the bowels. To restore
vigor upon a permanent basis there
is one remedy that fully covers the
requirements, ellis the bill, and
this is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
BY restoring digestion, giving a
healthful impulse to the action OF
the bowels and liver and tran
quillizng the nerves, it fulfills the
condition necessary to a resump-
ton of strength by the system. 1t
also overcomes malaria and rheu-
matism.
