DANGER IN DISGUISE.
The Serious Troubles That May Come
Upon People at This Time

ooh, it's only cold.'
Such remark as this Is often heard AT
this time of the year, when the weather
is chilly. The people who make such
remark seem to forget that cold Is really
a dangerous condition Of the system,
weak spot, a disease. A cold may lead to
4 cough, and then to pneumonia, or 1t may
sow the seeds of consumption. For the
reason it is dangerous to neglect cold.
It Is better to stamp 1t out at once. For
tunately there is one means Of doing this
that is always safe and reliable. What 1t
is and what 1t will do can be seen from the
following:
Mr.. NJ. o. Connor, 271 Scott ST.. Brook
lyn. says: Some time ago l was strick-
en- down with congestion Of the lungs. and,
though having the best medical attendance.
I did not improve. 1 had cough that
seemed to contract my chest to half its
natural size 1 was in constant pain, and
had no rest day or night. At last l was
advised to try Duffy's pure malt whiskey,
and 1t effected a speedy cure. The lung
trouble and cough entirely disappeared, my
appetite was regained. and breathing be-
came as natural as ever. l now feel like
new man all over"
No ordinary whiskey could have pro-
duced these unusual results. AS means
of building up the system and restoring
the health, Duffy's pure malt has always
been unequaled. If 1t were kept in every
household, and used in all cases Of emerg-
ency, a vast amount of sickness and suffer
ing could be entirely prevented.

Populist state committee, to-day gave out
the following. over his signature, for pub
lica ton:
1T begins to develop now that the pr!n-
clpal schemers in the diabolical plot to sell
the Populisl party 10 the Democracy is
giving the guilty perpetrators any amount
OF trouble. Breidenthal and his pals in
CRIME compelled the Populist party to fuse
with the Republicans in order that he
might hold his place at the pie counter.
They refused to allow convention to be
held one year ago. because he had a Judge
that answered his purpose. Now he helps
TO sell the party to the Democrats and calls
on his judge 10 force mans name on the
ticket for the sole purpose of defeating
him. This chief Demo-Repub-P -Popocratic
boss says in his letter to Hon. w. d. VIM
cent that he knows that there are Populists
who can be worked. / would simply say
that he is good authority on that subject.

st. Louis. Oct. 26.-Indications this morn

tiles as the result of yesterdays collision
on the st. Louis & San Francisco railroad
near this city. All the injured. so far as
known, are recovering and will be about in

H. F. Clark the trainmaster of the road

has this to say Of the accident: 1--WE have
nothing to conceal. and I know it will all
come out in the end. so feel safe II say
ing that blame for the accident lies entire
ly with our conductor and engineer on
the excursion train-George Atwood and
Joseph Dryden.
They are both good men and have seen
years of service in the railroad business on
our road and on other systems. We trust
ed them as We have trusted no orner en-
ployes. Atwood was beside himself with
grief at the awful results of his mistake
The road has nothing to say for ITSELF and
no explanation to make, further than that

FUSION NEGOTIATIONS OFF.
ing to Get ToEether-Watson's
Letter of Acceptance,

Letter of Acceptance.
Chicago, Oct. &C. F. Washburn, of
the P6pulist national committee, who re-
turned from Georgia to-day, declared in
an interview tonight that all fusion nego-
tiations between Senator Jones and himself
are off. He said: There were few
states where fusion was pending and we
were trying to consummate arrangements.
When l visited Georgia / saw that 1t was
vitality essential that all complications
should be adjusted at once. that the solid
vote of the mfddle-of-the-road Populists
might be secured for Bryan. While we
were arranging these matters, it was flash
ed over the wires that the Georgia and
Tennessee Democrats had rejected the
overtures made by the Populists and ad-
journed without making a counter prOposi-
ton. AS these two states were involved
in our arrangements this action rendered
it impossible for us to continue negotia-
tions.
1.-The responsibility Of all this must rest
scuarely upon the Georgia and Tennessee
Democracy. They seemed more anxious to
beat the Populists than to elect Bryan,
and whatever the results, the odium of
their unpatriotic action must rest upon
them"
Mr.. Washburn, will Mr.. Watson go to
Kansas or North Carolina?"
mo, 1 don't think he will. He has
promised to make few speeches in his
district for Mr.. West, our congressional
candidate, and l think that will close his
campaign"
Having seen Mr.. Watson's letter of ac-
ceptance. do you favor its publication"
"I do not see what good would be ac-
complished at this late day. as Mr.. Wat
son has stated the principal points Of his
letter in his public speeches; therefore,
do not favor its publication"

having succeeded in working them into
the Republican party for the election of
judge, and now rounding them up and
running them into the chute to be branded
as Democrats. He says he cannot trust his
committee. Is it strange that he cannot
do it after working them into the Repub-
lican party to favor Republican judge
and then working them into the Demo
cratic party for the purpose of
efecting Democratic senator's and rep
States senator? After giving the
party over to the Republicans for supreme
justice for his personal interest: after Civ
ing up the platform Of our party and de-
lvering OUT votes to the Democrats: after
sinking our manhood and abandoning every
principle in Populism to satisfy the old
enemy Of reform; and then leaving US with
nothing but a candidate for vice president
and cursing him and vihfying him for not
coming off the ticket, ought to make it
plain to Populists that they have no rights
that white men are bound to respect. He
says they have no right to have a candi-
date for vice president except for the sole
purpose of betraying voters into a trap to
cast their votes for the common enemy OF
God. home and humanity.
Now, that the cowardly and humiliat-
ing surrender of everything that is lear
to an honorable citizen of his country IN
order to satisfy the inordinate greed for
office on the part of men who would
sacrifice everything for spoils, they curse
us for not being a willing tool for the
further preparation of a vil!ainous scheme
to deceive the mass of Populist voters of
Kansas. / am disgusted with the supreme
courts attempt to run the politics of KAN
sas by Injunction. and lend its offices to
mislead the voters. Let them now turn
their dogs of war loose, stir up the hun
cry Democratic hycnas, compel their hire
ling press to do the dirty work of the
assassin. denounce all who dare to refuse
to be sold and delivered as boilers and
traitors, continue this brutal policy Of
theirs and they will accomplish what Breid-
enthal is now after-tha defeat of their
ticket I am receiving hundreds Of letters
daily from Pppulists who say they will go
straight to the open enemy rather than
be driven in a shameless manner into the
camp of Democracy. The campaign carried
on by the sell-out crowd is contrary to
every sense of honor and every conviction
of justice.

intimated by the court that the order in
