have no sympathy with those who will
seek to create inequalities and promote
antagonisms which are in conflict with
the spirit Of our institutions. There is
no inequality under our Constitution
and laws, and those who seek to make
distinctions are not the true friends or
either the country or of the people.
I'm voting every man is free man,
and every ballot should express the best
opinion of the voter. He should consult
both his intelligence and conscience be-
fore he deposits his ballot. 1t is trust,
therefore, of supreme Importance which
is conferred upon the American citizen,

affect not only the country but every
home and fireSide Our Government,
more distinctly than any other, rests
upon the consent of the governed, ana
is controlled in it's policies by the Will OF
the majority. The country is just now
in a condition of prostration. The intel

WORK BEGUN IN LEADVILLE.
Imported Men From rliSsouri Take
the Place of Strikers.

LEADVILLE (Col), Sept. 26-The
night passed without an attack on any
of the mines, although the strikers are
greatly excited over the importation OF
siXty-f1ve miners from Missouri by the
Small Hopes Company.
Toward morning shots were fired by
men who approached the hex mines.
The guards returned the fire and the
men fled. No one was injured SO far as
known.
The imported men began to work to-
day in the Marian and Enlmet mines.
They are lodged and fed In the Emmet
shafthouse, which is we'll guarded. w.

to keep them here for thirty or sixty

trouble Will end without further de-
struction of property and probable loss
of life.
A rather stormy meeting was held
tonight by the strikers, but the better
element predominated and at midnight
1t was finally decided to return to work
at the old schedule prices, providing the
mine owners would agree to give them
back their old places.
A committee of five was appointed to
confer with the mine owners, and it is
generally believed that outside of one or
two mines that have started up with
nCn-union men the rest Will accept.

the advancement of medical science,
the kidneys, being almost the organs
of the greatest Importance to human
health, have not been neglected, and
in placing before you such a cure as

recog nize how. far so many statements
of the makers of similar preparations
have fallen short of their claims, being
convinced that no remedy for kidney
complaints in existence equals Doan's
Kidney Pills for such ailments;
strengthened in these convictions by
letters that are daily received of the
work they are doing for mankind's s
benefit, old backs and young backs are
being constantly freed from never
ceasing aches, and many a lame and
shattered one, stopped and contracted,
is strengthened. invigorated and in

icine, an offer of this kind can be made
without hesitancy, for while we lose
the box we give to you, we make a
friend that assists us in the sale oi
many others.
