KANSAS CITY, July 20.-WhIle en-
route to the National Populist Conven-
ton, the California delegation, SO strong,
last night issued an open letter 10 the
Democratic presidential nominee, Will

country as the nominee of the Populist
party. The letter was composed and dis
patched while the delegation was wait
ing for the train to st. Louis. DR.. G. w.
Daywait, of San Francisco being chosen
secretary and instructed to write it.
The letter says in part:
eff you will accept the nomination
from the Populist party, declaring your
self Populist, you will become leader
to whom will rush every reformer, be he
silverite, Democrat or Republican, and
not only be elected yourself, but also
elect congress, the law-making power.
This is the opportunity of your life.
which, if taken advantage of, will send
your name down in history as the savior
of our country by the means of Popu'
lism. If you don't do it. we must, IL
defense of our principles, put another
nominee in the field. Can you thus be
elected?"

Question of IndOrsing Bryan Causes
All the DifhcuIty-BOth Sides
Are Determined.

ST. LOUIS, July Ex-senator Jones of
Arkansas, chairman of the Democratic
national committee, said today: 'sI
hope the Populist convention will en-
dorse Bryan and Sewall, and since I
arrived have received good deal of
encouragement in that hope" Jones
will be in conference with the Populist
leaders all day.
The belief continues generally preva-
lent that a bolt is among the strong
probabilities of the Populist convention,
whatever course is decided upon by the
majority. Delegates are con stantly ar
irving and as the crowd grows larger it
becomes more evident that there is in
tensity of feeling over the one question
at issue.
This question is whether to endorse
Bryan and Sewall or nominate separ-
ate ticket. In a general way the con-
test ia between the North and South
Northern men, as a class, contend thai
in the endorsement of Bryan lies the
only hope of making the influence o
the party felt or achieving practical re
suits, while Southern men, remember
ing their many contests with the Demo
Gratis of their section, maintain tha
such course is utterly suicidal.

great confidence in their strength. u

The Company known through
out the world as the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CD

Having met with the highest sue
cess in the manufacture and sale of
the excellent liquid laxative remedy,
Syrup of Figs, it has become import
ant TO all to have knowledge of the
Company and its products. The
great value OF the remedy as n medi-
cinal agent, and of the Company's
efforts, is attested by the sale Of
millions of bottles annually and by
the high approval OF most eminent
physicians.
The California Fig Syrup Co. was
organized more than twelve years
ago, for the special purpose of
manufacturing and selling u laxative
remedy, which would be more
pleasant TO the taste and more bene-
fetal in its effects than any other
known. In the process of manufact-
uring, figs are used, as they are
pleasant TO the taste, and healthful
in their tendencies, but the medicinal
properties of the remedy are obtained
from an excellent combination OF
plants known to be incidentally lax.
ative, and to act most beneficially.
II in the enjoyment of good health
and the system is regular, then
laxative or other remedies are moi
needed. II afflicted with any actua
disease one may be commended tc
the most skillful physicians, but il
in need of laxative, then on,
should have the bes. and with tn,
well-informed everywhere, Syrup o
Figs stands highest and is mos
largely used and gives most genera
satisfaction.

THE PARIS COCHER.


A Queer and Pathetic Relic of the Gildcd
Days of Louis XIV.
When, Theophilus, you feel that you
have been run over and abused by this
hard, old, wicked world and would like
to be an emperor for few minutes to
get even, come to Paris, my dear boy,
and call to your side one of these whip
swapping lords of the pavement, and for
/ y francs in shabby glory you can drive
around the streets of the brilliant city
and run over people, like a king. 1t
doesn't make any difference. The man
has number and license to whip up
his horse when he comes to q crowd.
Take it all in, Theophilus, and lean
back on your cushions as the women
and children scatter before whip and
hoofs and be sure to get your American
moneys worth Of that delightful old
medieval feeling of being in beauti-
full carriage world where pedestrians arc
born with the right of being knocked
down and the privilege Of being fined
for it.
The cab is the last touching symbol
of royalty in France. 1t is the plaintive
remnant of the old French constitution,
which consisted-succinctly stated-in
running over people and then having
them guillotined for being in the way.
Pay your cabman with reverence, The
ophilus, in these bare and democratic
times. He is the nations reductio ad
absurdum of Louis XV-pathetic, with
the gilt rubbed off.-Independent.

The ferocity of the Dyaks Of Bornec
when Rajah Brooke first came was ap-
palling. No social or religious function
could take place among the tribes with
out bloodshed. Young unmarried girls
came forth from the long seclusion to
which they had been condemned since
childhood SO anemic that they could
badly stand. A slave was killed in
their honor and the blood of the victim
sprinkled over them. Head hunting had
decilnated the race. 1t was imperative
that husbands should conjure evil spirits
by bringing human head to their
wives before the expected birth Of q
child. Boys might not aspire to man
hood without having earned the badge
of tho head hunter.
A skull was the first gift of q lover
to his mistress and the last token of re-
spect by which the living could honor
the dead. On account of his rank no
petty chief could be buried without
many freshly decapitated heads to form
his escort into the next world. The
greatest respect, moreover, was shown
to such trophies. They were smoked
over a fire to preserve them. Their lips
were forced open to receive the choicest
morsels during the family meal. To
bacco and betel nuts were also spread
before them. They were looked upon as
honored guests, and every effort was
made to win their friendship. Fort.
