Detroit, Oct. 22.-It has been openly
charged that a deal has been made by
the Democrats with that unique politi-
cal parsonage, Mayor Hazen S. Pingree.
Republican candidate for governor. The
charge is strenuously denied by Demo-
cratic leaders.
Pingree is at outs with the Republi-
can state committee, and yet there is a
very general feeling that he will be
eleeced governor. He has fatty refused
to pay his assessment of $4,000, and has
proclaimed with much holiness that he
can win without the cooperation of
any member or members Of the state
committee.
Now, it is said. he is travelling about
the state, telling his friends that Bryan
is a good fellow.

A Question often AJAX Ell by ThOs
AFFLICTED with Piles.

Is strained joint durable? Is
local Inflammation durable? OF course,
if properly treated. So is piles
People often become afflicted with
piles and ask some old chronic who
has always persisted in the wrong
treatment and naturally he discour-
ages them by telling them that their
case is hopeless.
They in turn discourage others, and
thus a disease that can in every case
be cured by careful and skillfuI hand
ling is allowed to sap the energy of
thousands who might free themselves
of the trouble in a few days.
Pyramid Pile Cure will cure the most
aggravated case of hemorrhoids in an
astonishingly short time It relieves
the cOngeSted parts, reduces the tu-
mors instantly no matter how large,
allays the Inflammation and stops the
aching or itching at once
Thousands who had resOrted to ex-
pensiVe surgical treatment have been
cured by the Pyramid Pile Cure-In a
number of instances persons who had
spent months in a hospital under a
pile specialist
1t is a remedy that none need fear to
apply even in the most aggravated,
swollen and inhamed hemorrhoidal tu-
mOrs.
If you are afflicted with this stubborn
disease you can master it and master it
quickly.
This remedy is no longer an expert
ment. but a medical certainty 1t is

sTREETCAR MEN IN sEssION
They Read Papers on Trucks 'ePow-
er Houses Etc.

st. Louis, Oct. 22.-Yesterday's ses-
sion Of the American Street Railway
association convention was executive,
but it was given out that nothing was
done besides the reading and discus
sion of papers It was said in some
quarters that this movement was in
consequence of a desire to discuss mat
tiers concerning the relation of tho
street railway corporations to the gen
eraI public in a manner in which
the public need not be enlightened.
On the other hand some Of the mem
bers assert that the action is solely the
result of conservatism shared by all
large business concerns and corpora
tons and the natural aversion they
have to seeing publicity given to bust
ness affairs. The action taken was
