SOMEWHAT PERSONAL.

SSAG w . - 2SsSS.NsS~~'
We have decided views Oh all ques-
lions of public interest, and we ex-
psess them in language not to be mis-
understood. While we are as strong
in our support Of the principles OF
the Reform wing of the Democratic
party as any one in it, and recognize
Senator Tillman as its leader, yet we
do not propose to sneeze every time
he takes snuff. Much in his political
career we find to censure. He has
made many grave political blunders'
which, under normal condition Ct
the public mind, would have hurled
him from the high place he occupiesin IN
the counsels of his party. Notwith-
standing these mistakes, we believe
his heart to be right on matters
touching the interests of the people,
and being man of an unusual high
order of genius and brilliant attain
ments, he is peculiarly fitted by ma
ture and education to be a leader OF
men, the controller OF circumstances
and the director of affairs. AS we
have said before, in his triumphs we
have gloried; in his successes we have
taken pride, and in the honors which
have been heaped upon him as
recognition of his ability and fitness
as a leader, we have been proud. In
espousing his cause in the past we
have nothing to regret; nothing to be
ashamed of. In advocating it the
future, as we have in the past, we
propose to be governed entirely
by what, in our judgment, is for the
best interests Of the people, defend
ing the policies Of the leaders OF the
Reform wing when we can consist
emily do SO, otherwise opposing them.
In other words upholdipg the hight
and condemning the wrong, hewing
strait to the line and letting the chips
fall where they may.
In the discussion of questions OF
public nature, in the settlement OF
which the people are concerned and
in the discussion of which they should
take deep interest, it goes without
saying that we are only giving ex-
preston to our own individual opin-
ions. As it is human to err, and as
we are human, it is possible, in
forming our opinions, for our judg-
ment to lead US astray, and for our
views to be erroneous. We lay no
claim whatever to infallibility. -Agi-
tatien is the best means for the edu-
cation of the masses upon any given
subject. It is the vehicle for the con-
Yeyance of a multitude of thoughts,
ideas and views. an intelligent dis
section of which will aid, assist and
help in the formation Of correct opin-
ions and in arriving at logical con-
clusions. For these reasons We cor
daily invite criticism of our posi-
ton on any issue, or the expression
OF opinion upon any question. We
try to be as correct as we possibly
can, and form our views only after
careful study of the subject; but we
are liable to make mistakes even after
being so careful. We will treat those
who may happen to differ with US
with due consideration, the utmost
kindness and all courtesy, and will
only strike back when struck and then.

But Nothing To Feed The Starving
Fire Sufferers.


Chicago, Sept. "A special to the
Record from Calumet, Mich, says:
So serious has become the condition of
the fire sufferers in Ontangon that they
have been reduced to condition of
almost barbarism. The food supply
is away, below the demand and the
strong and able bodied fight back the
weak and take all sustenance for them
selves, leaving the weak to starve.
The authorities have been unable to
meet the situation and Company d
has left left for the fire district to pro-
tect the people. Gov. Rich has been
appealed to and will send tents to the
peninsula and more troops to guard the
food If necessary. The men are sup
piled with twenty rounds of ball car
fridge and guns equipped for active
war. Thieves and pillagers will be
shot down if necessary to protect the
weak.

DEATH ON THE RAIL.
Fast Newspaper Train Smashes Into
A Freight.

Orange, Mass, Sept. "A newspaper
train and a freight collided near here
on the Fitchburg railroad, and engin-
eer VIM. Clements was instantly killed
and fireman Geo. Fowler received inju-
ries which will prove fatal. One brake
man was also badly cut and bruised.
The freight train had broken in two
and before the separated portions
could be picked up the passenger train
struck it and plunged through twelve
cars, reducing them to kindling wood
and entailing a money loss of $4,000.
Engineer Clements was thrown back
ward so feet and wedged between two
cars and it took a long time to get
his body out of the ruins. The road
was blocked for eight hours. A dense
fog was undoubtedly a great factor
in the accident.

For your Protection. - atarrh "Cures" or
Tonics for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken
internally, usually contain either Mercury or
Iodide of Potassa, or both, which are injur-
ious if too long taken. Catarrh is local, not
blood disease, caused by sudden change to
cold or damp weather. 1t starts in the nasal
passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat.
Gold in the head causes excessive flow Of
mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re-
suits of catarrh will follow; severe pain in
the head, a roaring sound in the ears, bad
breath, and oftentimes an offensive dis
charge. Theremedy should be quick to allay
inflammation and heal the membrane. Ely's
Cream Balm is the acknowledged cure for
these troubles and contains no mercury
nor any injurious drug. Price, so cents.

BOATS FOR A DOLLAR.
A Fleet That Carries the Life OF
the World.
millions of Tiny Craft With Human
Blood for Their Sea.

The microscope has revealed many
vonderful things, but none more won
derful than the minute bodies which
exist in the blood. They are called
corpuscles or cells, and are of two
linds. the white and the red. Just q
few words about these red cells. They
are so minute that there are countless
numbers of them in the tiniest drop OF
blood. Yet each one has a peculiar
shape, for which none of them ever
vary.
An adult of medium weight has
about twelve pints of blood in the
body, and yet every small drop of this
contains millions of red corpuscles.
The number of them in the blood cam
not be comprehended by the human
mind OF what use are they?
One great object of breathing is to
bring the oxygen of the air in close
contact with the blood which is in the
lungs, for oxygen is necessary for tho
support of life. 1t is the business of
these little red cells in the blood, to
carry the oxygen which we breathe
in the lungs to every part of the body.
The most minute part of every organ
aud tissue in the body must have it's
supply of oxygen or it will perish, and
the only way the oxygen can reach all
these parts is by means of these little
red cells. No matter how pure the air
may be which we breathe, if there are
not enough red cells in the blood to
carry a sufficient amount of oxygen
through the body we will surely suffer.
Plenty of fresh air is essential, and so
is an abundant supply of these little
oxygen-carriers necessary. These
little red bodies have been called
"boats for carrying oxygen Ger
tainly not very bad name for them.
Oxygen starvation is shown by poor
circulation, loss of appetite, debility,
anaemia, nervousness, neuralgia, Sleep
lessness, repeated colds, muscular and
mental weakness, and many other
symptoms. What is the remedy? Some
thing which will make more of these
oxygen-carrying "boats." Nothing
will accomplish this quicker than
SCOTS Emulsion of Cod-liver Oil with
Hypophosphites. 1t goes to the foun-
dation of things. 1t greatly increases
the number of red corpuscles in the
blood. What follows? More oxygen
is carried through the system, and
new life and vigor are impaired. The
oil nourishes the body, and the hypo-
gives stability and strength
to the nervous system. AS the large
size of Scott's Emulsion sells for one
dollar, SO you can get "oxygen boats
Tor one dollar"
SCOTS Emulsion contains more pure
Cod-liver Oil than any other
in the world. that will stand
he test of time as being perfect in
'eparable emulsion. Ask your doctor.
