silent a. a sphinx.

Time and again has Major VIM. Me-
Kinley, candidate OF one OF the great
political parties for the highest Office in
the gift Of the people, been asked to ex-
press his attitude toward trusts and give
an anxious public an intimation Of what,
II elected, be would do to enforce tie
antitrust Law: but not word has bee0
uttered.
The New York World sent one Of lite
staff correspondents. James Creelman,
to Canton to interview the candidate,
and II possible, get an expression from
him on the question, and here is what
the correspondent writes:
mot word did he have to raw about
trusts--Not one. In single sentence be
might have instantly changed the stii.
tude OF hundreds Of thousands of voters
but he refused TO speak that sentence.
81 heard him declare on Saturday that
the Mckinley law must be re enacted-the
law which has incnbated trusts. He
seemed to find nothing embarrassing in
that subject. But the anti trust Lavish

Jacob Durr,s BODY Pound.

The body OF Jacob DUR, whose mys-
terious disappearance from the steamer
City OF Ellensburg, On September Goth,
caused much speculation, WAS found
floating in the Columbia river near Che
Ian Falls last week. DUR was formerly
one of the best known citizens OF Kitti-
tas county and it was 10 his honor that
the Durr toll road, the most travelled
route between Yakima and Ellensburg,
10 early days, was named.
When Dur Was missed it was remem-
bered that he had considerable money on
Ills person and it was intimated that there
might have been foul play. At the cor
oner's inquest there was found on the
body S53 rs 10 gold and silver, and four
notes OF $500. signed by the Friday Gold
Mining CO., of which A. f. Burleigh is
president.
Mr.. DUR was the original discoverer OF
the Friday mine, which has done SO much
10 prove the stability OF the squaw creek
camp, and Was we'll known in mining
circles. There was no evidence that hia
death resulted from any cause other than
accident. He leaves fonr children, the
eldest son about Is years OF age, and
three little girls, who are nov orphans,
his wife having died some years ago.

A Republican PRESIDENTIAL E..Ima, e

The New York Life Insurance Com
pany, which strongly advocates gold and
Mckinley, instructed its agents through
out the country to make canvas OF the
probable result OF the election. After
receiving and computing the returns
President Mccall makes public his esti-
mate that Mckinley will receive 240 cleo
toral votes and Bryan BOZ. The total
electoral vote is Az; necessary to a
choice, 224.
This estimate is made by corporation
which is decidedly opposed to Bryan.
Its sympathies undoubtedly effected it's
opinion; still it is much fairer estimate
than most OF those emanating from strong
republican sources.
1t will be seen that il Bryan gets IL
more electoral votes than are allowed
him in this estimate he will be elected.
Among the states set down for Mckinley
are Delaware, votes; Illinois, "a; In
diana, Is; Iowa, 20; Michigan, IA; Min
nesota, o; North Dakota, 8; Ohio, 20
Oregon, A; South Dakota, 4. II Bryan
does not capture II oil these votes it viii
be strange, indeed.
The Yakima herald. [volume] (North Yakima, W.T. [Wash.]) 1889-1914, 1896-10-29
ANXIETY OF THE @. o. p.

Republicans express themselves pub
Ideally - certain beyond any reasonable
doubt that Mckinley will be elected, and
bombsstic bulletins are sent out from the
national headquarters claiming every
thing in sight. For all that never before
have the republican managers seen fit to
send speakers Of national reputation into
Oregon and Washington. There must
be some reason for this and IL is found in
the fact that these states, with California,
were heretofore considered certain to re-
turn Q republican majority and further
more they were not looked upon as neces-
sary to republican success. Now, evil
IDENTIFY, Mr.. Hanna's big claims regard
ing the states bordering on the Mississip-
pi were made only for effect and he is
reaching to this coast to make mp the
losses which he fears the party viii sus-
tain there. The situation is apparently
growing desperate and explains the anx-
iety Of the republican. national COM
mittee when it sends word to the mana
gers in the west TO spare no expense in
an effort to reclaim the coast states from
the hands of the followers Of Bryan.

Methers

Remember that Csstoria does not con.
tain Morphine, Opium, or any other
narcotic substance, in any quantity, shape
or form. 1t is entirely vegetable, pleas
ant to take, positively effective, and per-
fectly harmless. 1t ia not q secret remedy ;
the formula is printed on the wrapper.
Your hpysician will recommend it. Pare
goric, Bateman's Drops, and many SO called
Soothing Syrups, are composed principal
ly of Opium or Morphine; in any quantity
they stupefy, and in large quantities are
deadly poisons. Csstoria assimulates
the food and regulates the bowels, cures
diarrhGa, allays feverishness and freet-
fulness, soothes the pain in teething, re-
lieves constipation and kills worms. 1t
brings refreshing and natural sleep to the
child, and gives rest to the mother.
"Castoria is 30 well adapted to infants
and children, that l recommend it as
superior TO any other known remedy"
DR. II. A. ARCHER,
Ill s. Oxford St., Brooklyn, N. Y.
March 8. 1887.
From personal knowledge and obser-
walton can say that Castoris is an ex-
cellent medicine for children, acting as a
laxative and relieving the pent up bowels
and general system very much. Many
mothers have told me OF its excellent ef-
feet upon their children"
