VOTE
FOR PRESIDENT

For the first time in the history of this
country an opportunity for women to pub
licly express their choice for president is
offered. The method is unique and will
result in showing on Nov. 4th just what
effect the women's vote will have on nation
al affairs.
A manufacturer who has business re-
lations with most of the prominent news
papers in the United States, proposes the
plan as follows:
All women over Is are entitled to one
vote. The votes by states will be shown in
the paper every week until Nov. 4th.
Women are requested to read more than
one side of the question and act upon
their own judgment. Write the name of
candidate on postal card and write your
own name and address clearly, also city and
state. On the lower left hand corner give
the name of banker or grocer who knows
you.
This precaution is to prevent flooding the
mail with fictitious votes. Names unknown
to grocer or banker will be thrown out. Be
very careful to write clearly and an acknowl-
edgment of the receipt of each vote will be
sent to the fair voter. Send the postal to
Postum Cereal Food Coffee Co., Battle
Creek, Mich. 1t is urged that every earn.
est woman will not hesitate to expend a
penny to register her preference at this

This company have national reputation
and pledge their integrity and honor to re.
port the vote exactly as received, without
fear or favor. A sworn statement Of the
final vote polled up to p. m. Nov. 4th will
be published Nov. 18th and the vote as it
progresses will be shown every week be-
tween now and then

can industries was an injustice, and vel
does it not claim enormous protection for 4C
or so silver kings?
The early ratio established by the fathers
of the republic tried to bind the metals TO-
gether, but 1t has always followed that when
the bond Is fictitious the best favored metal
goes out of circulation and causes a con-
traction of the currency. Before 1878 when
silver was at only per cent premium, the
silver in the country went out of circulation.
What will happen to gold when there is
difference of 30 to in its favor? Would
not that cause far greater and depressing
contraction of the currency.
The last bond issue was forced to make
up for loss caused by the coinage of silver
under the Sherman act To disprove the
statement that stoppage of the coinage
caused a contraction of the currency, we
have only to note that the per capita amount
in circulation in 1872 was S1s.7O, while
July 1, 1895, it was S21.15.
The basest things in the Chicago platform
are the suggestions that the supreme
court will sooner or later be made to regis
ter party edicts and that insinuation
prompted by anarchic sympathy, that the
president should not DO his duty in protect
ing government property. This insinuation
the speaker denounced as dastardly. @
Bryans attacks on insurance companies
were insults to the most benefcent institu-
tons and attacks on the women and chill
dren that will be left behind. National de-
mocracy opposed all trusts, the silver trust
included.
Mr.. Bryan's reason for an attack on the
Romanists IS perhaps unknown, but the
ringing words of Archbishop Ireland will
endear him to all whether Romanists or
prOtestants.
Urging the voters to cast their ballots In
reason, not In fallacy, the speaker believed
that the old line democratic party would
rise all the stronger for its self-abnegation.
Fl. Kirk White presided at the meeting
and announced that week after next Col.
j. p. Irish, of California, would speak in

pie continue to buy baking powders con-
tanning it. All baking powders sold for
twenty-fv cents pound and less contain
alum. There is surely no economy in using
these cheap powders. For pure cream of

1AE NERVES IN OCTOBER.
Tired Men and Women Are Made Well Again by
PaneS Celery COMPOUND.

sense of weight on top of the head mean
failing vigor.
The sure way to get back to perfect
health OF body and brain is to regulate
and nourish the nerves by means OF
Paine's celery compound. 1t is search
ing cure for all diseases that indicate vi
tiated blood. 1t builds up the strength,
replaces used-up parts by new, vigorous
tissues; regulates the hearts action, and
finally arouses the excretory organs-the
kidneys especially, upon whose vigilant
activity depends the health and purity
of the system.
Nothing so quickly builds up the tired
system as this great invigorator and nerve
regulator. Public opinion in the large
cities throughout the country shows the
reliance that thoughtful men and women
have come to place upon Paine's celery
compound when the body needs building
up and rhe strength recruiting. Men in
official positions in nearly every depart
ment of the official service have gone out
of their way to send letters of thanks and
allowed their names and letters to vouch
for this great remedy.
Paine's celery compound accomplishes
remarkable results because it works intel
ligently with definite aim always in
sight of purifying the blood, getting the
wasted system again nourished and the
vital organs working with ease and regu-
larity.

Tuesday evening Albert Kennedy Ch'lds,
of Hartford, Conn.,, addressed an audience
which comfortably filled the auditorium OF
the armory. Mr.. Chi.ds' speech was earnest
and logical, but was trife weighed down
with rhetorical fourishes.
If the free coinage of silver would in
crease the value of wheat from so cents
10 a dollar. -four would of necessity go from
$500 to $500 BARREL If the wage Garner
received double his present wages he could
purchase no more -four, and during the
period of the REIMBURSEMENT OF values he
would find in the golden age of silver"
that the purchasing power of his dollars
would be lessened, although their number
Nigh. be increased. For 81 years previous
to 1878, $S,000,000 in silver were coined,
and since then 5000, 900, 900 in silver have
been coined. Evidently the government
has done great deal In the way of atone
ment for the so-called crime of 1878, which
had, no effect at all. The wage Garner
would not be satisfied with more weight and
less value. 1t is common justice to pay him
in the best dollars human ingenuity can de-
vise. backed by the best national credit.
The farmer is the pet of the silverites, who
wish to lift him out of a condition which is
now far better than that of town and city
laborerss
Our country produces one half more
natural products than we can consume.
They must be exported and prices fixed by
the law of supply and demand. American
wheat completes with Argentine and India
wheat and its price is fixed in London. We
can not compel them to pay higher price
by mere legislation. The price of Ameri-
can cotton is fixed in Liverpool and is based
on the supply of cotton from Egypt and
India.
Mexico is a fine country and the fair sub
ject of analogy. The wages paid, however,
are less than one-half paid for the same
work performed under similar disadvantages
in the United States. The street car con-
ductors in Mexico average IS cents per day,
Mexican money, while In the United States
their wages average $197. A Mexican
paper, giving the account of their strike for
81 90 per day, contains an advertisement
of Columbia bicycles, $500, Mexican money.
Mr.. Bryan should be asked If any silver
producing, free coinage country pays daily
wages equal to rs per cent Of wages paid
for the same work in the United States.
b IL true that from 1860 to 1865 with an in
fatsd paper currency that the price of all
