VIZ trust that the delegates to the
st. LOUIS convention have not yet made
up their slate as to who shall be on the
various committees. The slate is apt
to be broken. We know of a certain
political slate maker and breaker, who
will be loafing around about that time,
who will have a word or two TO say
even If he can't vote. The chances are
that he has a slate concealed about his
anatomy himself, and the principal
feature about the slate will be the per-
son named as the national committee
man. There are those who prefer the
position to being delegate.

OUR CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT.

OUR CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT.
We present to the readers of thi
paper, and to the republicans of thu
Territory, our choice for president in
the coming nominating convention al
st. Louis-Willlam Mckinley, of Ohio.
The formal placing of his name at the
top of our editorial columns was
scarcely necessary, in order to let the
people of the Territory know that
Mckinley was our choice for this great
Office. The paper has been an ardent
Mckinley advocate since the election
day on which Benjamin Harrison was
defeated by Grover Cleveland.
William Mckinley is an ideal Ameri-
can citizen. In his long public career,
he has never committed a single act
that he need apologize for now. He is
tree from all rings and cliques OF
scheming politicians, and, il elected to
the presidency, he will take his seat
free from pledges to political bosses.
An illustration of this can be had in
his own state, where the political ring,
headed by Ex-Governor Foraker and
George Cox, of Cincinnati, has
worked every scheme, both honorable
and dishonorable, to check the grow
ing popularity of Mr.. Mckinley. In the
last state election there, the Mckinley
faction was beaten by the Foraker gang
and it began to look as if McKinley's
presidential chances were diminishing.
Those who think that Mckinley made
peace with the tricksters are greatly
mistaken. He pursued the ever tenor
OF his way, and his popularity became
so great that the machine men are GLAD
OF the permission to march under his
banner. We believe that VIM. Nc
Kinley will give this country an ad-
ministration that will bring back pros
perity to this nation. We know what
his action on the tariff question will be
and are satisfied that he will acquiesce
In any financial plan that will lift the
country from the desperate financial
condition it is now in. He is Q states.
man, not a politician, and his election
to the Office of president of the United
States, with his hands free, means that
he will act in all matters for the good
Of the nation, and will do right as he
Is given the power to see 1t.

NO FAITH CURE
ABOUT STUART'S DYSPEPSIA TAB
LETS.

They Cure Stomach Troubles ana Indiges-
ton Anyway, Whether You Have Faith
in I lem or Not.
All physicians agree that the element of
faith has great deal to do in the cure Of
disease.
Firm belief and confidence in a family
physician or the same confidence and faith in
patent medicine, have produced remark
able cures, in all ages
This is especially true in nervous troubles
and no field offers SO prolific harvest for
the quack and charlatan, as the diseases
arising from a week or run down nervous
system
| Nevertheless, the most common of all
diseases, indigestion and stomach troubles,
which in turn cause nervous diseases, heart
/ troubles, consumption and loss of flesh, re-
quire something besides faith to cure.
Mere faith will not digest your food for
you, will not give you an appetite, will not
increase your flesh and strengthen your
nerves and heart, but Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will do these things because they
are composed of the elements:of digestion,
they contain the juices acids and assimila-
tion of all wholesome food.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets will digest food
if placed in jar or bottle in water heated to
9S degrees, and they will do it much more
effectively when taken into the stomach after
meals, whether you have faith that they
will or not.
They invgortc the stomach make pure
blood and strong nerves, in the only way
hat nature can do it, and that is from plenty
of wholesome food well digested. 1t is moi
what we eat, but what we digest that doe
us good.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by
nearly all druggists at so cents for full szeC
package, or by mail from the Stuart Co.
