Men and women tremble at the mere
thought of the thief and assassin who steals
in at midnight TO rob and STAY. Without
qua1rn these same people face the deadly
advances of foe infinitely more dangerous.
All the robbers and assassins in the history
of crime did not slay as many human beings,
as consumption kills in a single year. One
sixth of the population of the world dies of
this deadly pestilence. It turks in every
home and IN every public place, waiting for
its victims. There is but one protection
against it. The microbes of consumption
may be safely defed by those who keep
their blood rich i'll tissue building elements
and free from impurities. The lungs, if
supplied with pure blood, furnish no foot
hold for the germs of consumption.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is
the greatest of all known blood purifiers 1t
is the best tonic and invigorator. AS flesh
builder it has no equal. 1t has cured thou
sands of consumptives who have been pro-
nounced incurable by physicians. 1t fills
the arteries with rich, red, tissue building
blood, and drives from the system all dis
ease germs. Thousands have testified to
its merits.

GOV STONE EXPLAINS
How and Why NH. Bryan Was De-
tented.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 4.-Gov. w. =. Stone
was asked today what, in his opinion,
were the causes of Bryan's defeat.
First and chiefly money" was the re-
ply. Second the betrayal Of the DEM
ocratic party by men who owe it every
thing. Third, the influence Of the sub
sidized press Continuing, the COVER
nor said. 81 shall begin from this hour
the work Of organizing the people of
the state for the campaign Of 1900. The
cause we have fought for is right. 1t
involves a question affecting the pros
perity of our country and the happi-
ness Of mankind. 1t will not be settled
until it is settled right. The battle we
have fought has not been in vain since
it has resulted in separating the Demo-
cratic wheat from the chaff. The party
will grow stronger in future when every
man in it is ready to fight and to die
for it's principles. The cause of free

come at last in response to the resOlute

The people of the United States should
never be unnindful Of the gratitudea
they owe the God Of Nations. for hdss
watchful care which has shielded them

should they ever refuse to acknowledge

turn away from Gods teachings and to-

devices.
To the end that these thoughts NAV

Therefore, I, Grover Cleveland, presi-

designate and set apart Thursday. the

day Of thanksgiving and prayer
throughout our land.
On that day let ali our people forego

render thanks to the Ruler of the uni

and our deliverance from every threat

dwelt within our boundaries; for our
defense against disease and pestiIence
during the year that has passed; for
the pienteous rewards that have fol-

and for all the other blessings that have
been vouchSafed to us.
And let us, through the mediation of
Him who has taught us how to pray,
implore the, forgiveness Of our sins and
a continuation of heavenly favor.
Let as not forget on this day Of

BRAGG BROUGHT OUT.
Suggested for 81 Place in the Nc
KinIey Cabinet ~

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Nev.8. 4.-The
Journal today brings out the name of
Gen. Edward S. Bragg, of Wisconsin,
for secretary Of war in Mckinley
cabinet, and the proposition Is indorsed
by the prominent Republicans of this
state. The Journal claims that such
an appointment would stamp the vic
tory yesterday with the non-partisan
character which really belongs to it.
The Journal shows that the sound
money Democrats OF Wisconsin large
ly deserve the credit of the victory
for Mckinley in this state. It proves
not only that the detection of silver
Republicans was much larger than had
been anticipated, but that the gold
Democrats with upwards of $4,000 went
SO out of all proportion that it not only
completely overwhelmed any RepubM-
can detection and the Populist vote,
but saved the state for sound money
Twenty thousand Democrats voted for
Mckinley, while refusing to vote for
any other Republican candidate.

OVATION FOR HANNA.

In Him.

CLEVELAND. Ohio, Nov. 4.-Hon.
M. A. Hanna spent all Of today at his
cftice in the Perry Payne building re-
ceiving congratulations personally and
by wire. He did no work of any kind,
expressing himself as being too tired
to give any attention to business. In
the afternoon word was passed along
and at 2 O'Clock the whistles of all the
steamers and tugs in the river nearby
and Of the factories on the lower flats
began to below and Shrek in unison.
A large crowd provided with tin horns
and bells appeared before the Perry
Payne building and added it's shouts
and chatter to the din. Mr.. Hanna
looked out of his Office window to
learn the cause of the demonstration
and soon found that it was in his
nonor. He proceeded to a platform
lmprovised under the arched entrance
of the building, where he spoke a few
words of acknowledgment and felicia
ton. A short speech was made by
his friend, ]. H. Hoyt, and after fur
ther Jub1lation the crowd dispersed.
At o'clock Mr.. Hanna started for
New York to join his wife and youngest
daughter, the latter of whom is under
medical treatment there. He will re,

TO DEPEW's MIND.
The Silver Craze Is Certainly on the
Wane,

CONCORD, N, H, Nov. 4.-Chauncey
M. Depew, who arrived In this city
this morning, commented upon the Re
publican victory as follows: sThe ooun-
try has gone overwhelming Republican
and talk Of free silver will soon disap-
pear. The result of the election has
dlsproved the emphatic statement SO
often made by the European public that
1t is impossible to submit a complicated
financial question to the popular vote
and secure verdict in favor of sound
economic reasoning
THE result of the election proves
moreover, and to me this is the most
important feature in our victory, that
the American people are honest. 1t
is a great thing for a people so diverse
and SO numerous as ours to be univer-
sally honest and the election of yester-
day has fully demonstrated that the
people of this country held the national
honor as dear as their individual re-
pute: L foresee in the immediate future
the disappearance of the silver question
from our politics.

DEMOCRACY STILL LIVES.
The Defeat of Bryan Saves 1t, Says
HOPKINS.

CHICAGO, Nov. 1--WE know now
that Mckinley has received an over
whelming majority in Illinois. This
is no surprise to those who have had
an opportunity to observe the trend of
public opinion in this state. The Pal
naer and Buckner vote will be insight
ficant, which is matter of no surprise
to the managers of the sound money
campaign in this state.
Democracy and the Democratic party
still live. It's principles are eternal.
/ do not rejoice at McKinley's victory,
but l do rejoice in Bryan's defeat. Our
committee will meet this week and pro-
claim to the people of this state and
the United States that we are Demo-
Gratis and claim to represent the Demo-
cratic faith. We have no doubt but
that the conservative element of the
party will assert itself, and now that
A1tgeldfsm and all that it represents
has been utterly repudiated by our
state, the sober class OF the people will
assert itself and Democracy will be
re-established on it's ancient lines.
l rejoice as an American citizen that
the capacity of the American people
to govern themselves in peace as in war
has been demonstrated, what has been
the most crucial test to which the re-
public has ever been subjected.

PARIS, Nov. 4.--The election in the
United States was watched with great
interest in France and is commented
upon at length. LIE Paris says: Europe

While the defeat Of bimetallism is de-
cisive, 1t is a blow to bimetallism in
Europe"
LIE Temps remarks: 1.-THE Republi-
cans must not thank themselves en-
tirely. Not they, but the splitting UP
OF the parties, the coalition of various
interests and the uprising of con-
sciences gave the victory to Mckinley
who only won a usufructary victory
and he will be exposed to a cruel
awakening if he tries to exploit it be-
yond measure for the profit of the
protectionists or his own fads. It is
an advantage that he will have time
to digest his success, draw up a pro-
gramme and form a cabinet We shall
see If he understands sufficiently the
significance of what has occurred and
If he is able to rise above paltry con-
Sideration of party spirit in order
worthily to represent the great ma
tiona1 movement which ushered him

suit will be "a cessation Of the crisis

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 4.-Mr. Bryan
tonight gave out the following in reply
to numerous kilograms from all parts
of the country:
THE Democratic national committee
claims enough states to give a ma
jority in the electoral college, but the
vote is very close in several Of the
states and the result cannot be known
positively until the entire vote is
counted. In all close contests it is wise
for both sides to watch the returns
10 guard against the possibility of mis-
take, Intentional or unintentional."
Mr.. Bryan dictated this statement
to typewriter but when pressed for
something more for the press declined
to yield, saying that he could give no
utterance to his opinion as to the re-
suit, or outline his intentions until
the outcome should be definitely
known. In conversation with friends
he freely discussed the probabilities. re-
ferring to the closeness of the vote in
several of the states, and comparing
Kentucky, Indiana, West Virginia, and
other states of apparently narrow
rsRrgin. He read all bulletins with
interest but in reply to questions said
that he was not allowing the uncer-
tafnty to cause the least degree of
LII SPOhe To I'LL OUT
1t became evident towards the latter
part of the day that he was growing
less and less hopeful. He was es-
pecially gratified at the result in Ne
braSka and took occasion to earnestly
congratulate the chairmen of the
various county and state committees
located in Lincoln on their work in
this city and throughout the state.
During the afternoon Mr.. Bryan at
tended the funeral of an old friend
and spent the evening with his callers
During the afternoon what purported
to be kilograms received by Mr. Bryan
were read in the hotel Hobbies claiming
the entire south, the states west of
the Missouri and also Indiana and
Minnesota. The announcement of these
claims. which Mr.. Bryan afterwards
said he had not authorized, created a
wild burst of applause, caused several
bets to be offered and ultimately re-
suited in the origin of an informal
procession numbering several hundred
which headed for Mr.. Bryan's house.
When Informed of this demonstration
Mr.. Bryan quietly advised that it be
suspended until the result should be
more definite.
The Republican state committee had
tonight at 10 o'clock abandoned all
claims to the state except on auditor
and treasurer, which Judge Post the
Republicans have elected. He comedies

ANARCHY DID 1T.
Says the Vice Chairman of the Ma
ttOnaI Silver Party.

CHICAGO, Nov 4.-Vice Chairman I.
N. Stevens, Of the National Silver par
ty. today issued the following state
ment:
If final results show that Mr.. Bryan is de-
feated, it does not demonstrate that free sill
yer is beaten by any means. The extreme
and impolitic planks of the Chicago platform
lost us hundreds of thousands of votes
amongst conservative business men, who were
really in favor Of free coinage.
Another factor in this contest which has
greatly injured us, has been the
fact that four years ago the Demo-
cratic party went into power with a
president and both houses OF congress,
and the policy of that president, and the
legislative acts of majority of that party
in congress have been too often against the
interests of the people. The American peo-
pie wanted a change and il Mr.. Bryan is de-
feated it is largely due to the fact that they
at this time were not willing to trust another
Democratic administration, however strong
it's professions in the interests of the people.
The silver question will not down until
Justly settled by the restoration Of free coin
age at the ratio of 16 to 1. 1t is to be hoped
that the next time it is submitted to the peo-
pie, it will not be handicapped by the injec-
ton of other questions, about which the
friends of free coinage radically differ in
opinion. Mr.. Bryan has made the most mar
velous canvass ever made on the American
continent, and throughout has shown him.
self to be one of the greatest men our coun-
try has ever produced.

drunken men shouting fer Bryan and
impeding the progress of peaceable
citizens, apparently defiant Of the
police. They insisted that this election
was a repetition of that of 1876 and
charged that 1t was intended that
Bryan should be cheated out of his
rights. Parades were formed and it
was not until long after midnight that
the excitement was allayed and tne
