RHEUMATISM.
Torture and Agony are its Attendants, -
Addition to this, the Fear Of 'a
Sudden Death.

Rheumatism, as Is we'll known, is caused by
acids existing in the blood, due to poisonous
secretions from some of the great life centres

ABANDONED.
The Free SilveriteS Have
Dropped their Silly Lie
About Coercion.

A few weeks ago the Popocrat
papers and speakers were saying
that the workingmen were being
"coerced" by the employers, and the
especial charge was made that the
Northern Pacific employees at Brain
crd were intimidated. Last week =
Brainerd Journal, which is Il radical
free silver paper, said:
"Earlier in the campaign there
was all opinion among the employees
of the Northern Pacific Railroad Co.
and the Brtinerd Lumber Co. in this
city that the position of the enl-
ployers respectively ON the free coin
age question might be considered 10y
their employers, and that the free
coinage men might be discharged.
A sufficient time has elapsed to show
whether any such discrimina ton is
to be used, and it is but just to state
that there has been no such discrimi-
nation, and that there is no prospect
of any. The men have been trea ted
with perfect fairness, and there is no
complaint among them, and no
cause for any. We have made care
full inquiry. and find that the men
are entirely satisfied"
1t would be fair for the Herald to
as publicly acknowledge that it's
rant about "coerclOn" had no sub
stantial foundation.

SHOT the Horse,

James Gravel, a resident of Belle
Prairie, while trying to prevent the
boom company from hauling logs
off the bottom lands on his farm,
shot one of the horses which the
boom company had at work.
The logs were washed onto Mr..
Gravel's land by the high water last
spring and he is OF the opinion that
he is entitled to damages before the
logs are removed.
The horse was not seriously injur-
ed, Gravel's intentions being to
shoot over their heads to scare
them away, but his aim was poor
and some of the shots struck the
animals ears. 1t is not likely that
anything will be bone about the
shooting, and the matter OF dam
ages will be settled.

Editor Transcript:
notice that last weeks issue of
the Herald contains al article
headed Misrepresentation" which
reflects ON the intelligence of our
citizens, and also ON the men who
addressed a political meeting which
was held here the 18th. The Herald
states that at that meeting Mr..
Williams main argument was that
he mad done good deal for the
county, and that, as u personal
favor, the people ought to vote the
way he did. was present during
the whole meeting and will say that
there is not one word of truth in the
statement. Mr.. Williams did not
say in his speech that he had ever
done anything for the county,
neither did he ask or even intimate
that the people ought, as u ''per-
sonul favor" to vote as he did. In
regard to the speeches of b. Wotzka
and d. Trettel I cannot speak so
positively as the speeches were
delivered in the Polish language,
but am assured by men WHO under
stood them that the Herald is as far
from the truth regarding them as it
is in it's Version of Mr.. Williams
speech. The fact is we held q rous-
ing meeting. About IS of our voters
were present, mostly Polish, and
there were not Il half dozen silver
men in the crowd. One man, u
prominent Polish Democrat, told
me after the meeting that "they,
1.-THE Polish,) will most all vote for
Mckinley this fall" And want to
tell our so cent dollar friends that
they will have to practice a good
deal of Misrepresentation" II they
prevent Swan River from rolling up
a big majority for Mckinley. Morris
and sound money on the 3rd of next
November.

Advertising.

The following are hints on adver-
Using from Charles Austin Bates
book on Good Advertising:
There il no doubt In the world
that newspaper advertising is the
best that retail merchant can do.
When 1t comes to programs,
sou venirs, directories, ADVERTISE
ments on maps and on clocks, in TO-
tel registers and the thousand and
one other advertising lodges which
come under the head of "schemes"
the advertiser had better save his
money. I have had experience on
both sides of "scheme'' advertising.
1 have published programs and
schemes of various sorts and it was
quite profta ble-fOr me. | do not
believe that any advertiser ever got
enough returns from the ADVERTISE
ments in a scheme to DAY for it's cost.
4 r i
My rule in advertising is very
simple one. Wherever it is possible
1 would use the newspaper. The
newspaper comes first, because you
can get more for your money in the
newspaper than you can get any
other way. You can reach more
people for every dollar you spend in
the newspaper than you can in any
other method Of advertising. There
is not any doubt about that. You
can take a pencil and figure it out.
Positive, fOrceful advertising is the
kind that pays. The ad that makes
q clean. straight, definite PROPOSE
ton about something in particular,
is the ad that makes the best and
deepest impression. I don't believe
in undignified methods in any kind
of a store, for advertising is purely
business. There should be very little
sentiment about it. The ad that
sells goods is good ad always.
The ad that sells goods will he, in
nine cases out of ten, an ad that
talks plainly to the people in way
that every body can understand. It
isn't fiippant nor cute; but it isn't SO
dignified that it fails to give any in
fOrma ton.

Runaway Spouse Found.

A woman arrived in the city Tues

of her husband, who she alleged had
deserted her. She was ON the right
track, for her husband has been in
this city for several weeks, and has
been playing Il guitar for the dances
at the Union hall on Wednesday anG
Saturday nights. lie evidently "got
wind" Of her arrival for she could
not find him last night, and expressed
the intention of returning home on
the early morning train. She did
not return, however. and while at
the depot today she found her hus-
band just as he was purchasing 4
ticket for Brainerd.
She at first, wOmanlikc, upbraided
him. and accused him OF bringing
another woman to this place with
him. This he denied, although there
are a number Of people here :.who
state that he did. She prevented his
departure for Brainerd and attempt
ed to get him to return with her to
Minneapolis. She was unsuccessful
and the two left the depot and re-
turned to tie city. Just what the
outcome will be no one knows. OF
the domestic troubles of the unhappy
pair no one here seems to know. but
from the actions If the man. since
coming here and his general appear
ance, it is very likely that the wom-
an is entitled TO sympathy. He gave
the name of Robert Whalen.

COUNTY FINANCES.
The Same Old Democratic Pro.
gram of ignoring County
#& Finances.
They Ignore this Issue anc
Avoid Discussion
Of 1t.

Two years ago. iu the campaign
A OF 1894, the Republican papers, can
~ didates and speakers every where
called the attention of the voters
and taxpayers t. the results vi DEM
OcrAtic control in Morrison county,
whereby floating debt of nearly
$25, 900 had been built up. Also that
B the expenses for the previous year
Il had been more than the income hy
, over $4,000. The Democrats AVOID
ed the issue as much as pOssiblei in the
campaign, and made all sorts Of
efforts to belittle the issue. and
declared that the Democratic man
) agement had been all right. The
Republicans, however. forced the
question of county management to
the attention Of the voters, and the
result was a sweeping Republican
victory. The Republicans had
plainly promised to run the county
within it's income, and they did.
I The revenue expenses were 81 ,753 Oh
less than the revenue receipts in 1895,
the first year under Republican con-
troll. When the statement was pub
lished early in 1886, the Transcript
expressed satisfaction over the
showing, and the Democrats then
declared they would carefully dis
cuss the Republican record. Not a
word has since been said by the
Democrats about the Republicans
record as managers Of the county
but they are going to-bye and bye.
For instance, last weeks Herald
says:
: "The Republican talk about
economy in county affairs is simply
rot, as will be shown before the
campaigns over.'
y Just change that expression SO
= that the declaration is made that
the talk about Democratic extrava-
gance in county affairs is ''simply
8 rot" and you have the "argument'
= the Herald made Two years ago.
But the Herald will do great things
"before the campaign is over
That question is the most impor-
tant local one in the campaign. yet
the time Of election is less than two
weeks ahead, and all the Herald has
to say is to promise an exposition of
the "rot" at some time 'befOre the
campaign is over" 1t doesn't
REQUIRE any proof to convince the
voters that the Democrats are
y afraid to discuss the Issue of county
management, when they can at this
late day only promise u discussion
later.
They dread any reference to it, hut
it is probable that just before cleo
ton they will attempt to explain
away the evident favorable showing
made by the Republicans. 1t was
the place for the Democrats to do
the attacking this year, and the
voters may. rest assured that tine
attacks would have been vigorous
months ago If the Democrats had
any thing to gain by discussion Of
the question.
The record stands that in 1898 the
p Democrats run the county over $lO.-
J.. 600 in debt, and in 1895, the first year
:. under Republican control, the coun-
yty expenses were less than the
receipts.
