argon as is obtainable from the nitrogen
of the air.
The railway metals between Lon
don and Edinburgh Ga distance of 400

FREE CURE FOR men.
A Michigan Man Offers to Send His
Discovery Free.
Claims TO be a BenefactOr TC
Weakened Mankind.

There is always more or less sus-
picion attached to anything that is Of
fered free but sometimes a man so
overflows with generosity that he can
not rest until his discovery is known
to the world, ia order that his fellow
men may profit by what he has dis
covered. 1t is upon this pricipal that
a resident of kalamazoo, Mich. de-
sires to send free to mankind a pre-
scription which will cure them of any
form of nervous debility; relieves
them of all the doubt and uncertain
ty which such men are peculiarly liza
BILE to and restores the organs to nat
ural size and vigor. AS it costs moth
ing to try the experiment it would
seem that any man, suffering with the
nervous troubles that usually attack
men who never stopped to realize
what might be the final result, ought
to be deeply interested in remedy
which will restore them to health,
strength and vigor, without which
they continue TO live an existence OF
untold misery. As the remedy in
question was the result of many years
research as to what combination
would be peculiarly effective in restor-
ing to men the strength they need, it
would seem that all men suffering
with any form of nervous weakness
ought TO write for such a remedy at
once. A request to H. q. Odds, Box
174S Kalamazoo, Mich, stating that you
are not sending for the prescription
out of idle curiosity, but that you wish
to make use of the medicine by giving
it a trial, will be answered promptly
and without evidence as to where in
formation came from.
The prescription is sent free, and al
though some may wonder how Mr..
Odds can afford to give away his dis
covery. there is no doubt about the
offer being genuine. Cut this out and
send to Mr.. Olds so that he may
know how you came to write him.

A Luxuriant NIustache.

A clerk at the Fort Hall Indian
agency boasts of a mustache nearly long
enough to make alariat. Mr.Jenlins' face
is Just naturally good soil for hair, and
his mustache just grew and grew, until
it reached length of nine feet. Ordi-
narily Mr.. Jenkins folds the ends Of
hismustache away out of sight under his
vest, but sometimes he let's it drag the
floor to show it's full length just as a
woman with a wealth of black hair ex-
hibtts it in the privacy Of her boudoir
to a coterie of admiring friends. This
is not the first time we have heard of
Mr.. Jenkins and his famous mnstoche
-Portland Oregonian.

The man who goes to find the North
Pole must be strong, and brave, and
healthy. His is dangerous and health
trying task. His nerves must be steady
to keep his vessel from wreck. His blood
must be pure and rich to Withstand ex.
posure and fatigue.
These things are equally as important
to the man who stops at home and works,
for death and disaster are not confined to
the Arctic regions. Steady nerves, pure
blood and healthy vigor are essential to
health and success anywhere in the
world. Thousands of men do not seem
to realize this and 60 about half alive and
miserable Just for lack of little OF the
proper medicine. DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery is designed to help
them. It is blood vitalizer-a nerve
strengthener. 1t should be taken by
every man or woman who is not exactly
as well, and vigorous as he or She ought
to be. 1t produces strong, sound, solid
flesh brings springiness back to the
step-brightness to the eyes-cheerful-
ness to the mind. No medicine in the
world ever had such wonderful record
of success.

NE VADA.

THE lynching of Adam Uber in
Genoa this week was about as cold
blooded an affair as one ever reads
of, and the perpetrators of the deed
should be summarily dealt with.
They have given the fair State OF
Nevada the name of being unable TO
protect its citizens by law. There
was no reason for the lynching OF
Uber. He had committed crime,
but the law was taking its course as
rapidly as possible, and there was
no reason to suppose that he would
not have met with speedy, fair,
and impartial trial, and have been
given his just deserts. Without a
doubt the mob was melted to action
by the fact that so many cases OF
murder now 60 UNPUBLISHED or are
only punished lightly after a long
and expensive trial. But this does
not justify the mob. They have
committed more coldblooded muir
der than Uber committed, and they
should be made to pay the penalty.
From all accounts it rappears that
the Sheriff must have been in with
the mob, for, after all the talk there
was about lynching Uber, he was
in no way on his guard or prepared
for the emergency, and he simply
allowed the life of man placed in
his charge for safekeeping to be sac
rificed by a lot of brutal towards.
Not stone should be left unturned
in hunting out these towards and
bringing them face to face with the
law, and if jury cannot be OBJ
tanned in Douglas county to con-
vict them, they should be tried in
every county in the State until
they are convicted.

IT is now believed that Durrant
will be hung sometime next Janu-
airy. For the sake of humanity, the
good name of California, and the
good of the country at large, it is
hoped there will be no mistake
about the date of the party this
time. 1t would also be a good
scheme to hang some of the legal
fraternity engaged in his case and
those who have been putting up the
money to keep the brute alive UNI
til this time.

THE Presidents message to Con-
gress is very sloppy affair. 1t
deals with all sorts of questions
supposed to be of interest to this
country, but there is not positive
line in the whole document.
Mckinley clearly shows that he is
opposed to free coinage, bimetallism
or anything else in the way of a
monetary reform unless it be for
the interest of the gold men of this
country and England. He appears
to be in favor of annexing the
Hawaiian Islands, but is little
skeptical about it. However, as
this move is more in favor of the
monied classes than is the sup
preston of the butcheries and
starvation in Cuba, it is probable
that the islands will be annexed.
But how about poor Cuba? The
message favors Spain in all her
plans to grant autonomy to the
Cubans, a plan which it must be
known will not be accepted by the
Cubans. And in the meantime the
people of Cuba are starving to
death. What man of nerve and
backbone Mckinley is, to be sure.
However, the Cubans are fighting
hard, and they will eventually gain
their liberty, but at what cost
And a Christian nation sits idly by
and breaches peace, prosperity and
humanity.

DEBs, NEW SCHEME.

Mr.. Z. V. Debs has a new clan for
the salvation Of the race. He calls
it the cooperative commonwealth. lie
proposes to take large number of che
unemployed citizens of Chicago, re-
move to some State where there is an
abundance of cheap and arabic land,
and establish colony something after
the plan Of TopOlobampO. While IL
may be disguised by name, the new
scheme IS socialism pure and simple,
aud while MIR. Debs and his fOllOwt rs
have perfect right to try, we do not
predict for it success, Most thinking
men, whether favorable to socialism or
not, can see In the signs of the times
that it is coming, that it will envelOp
the civilized earth But it will not
come this way. These efforts NAV
serve to agitate; they may help move
mems minds that way, but Ghey in
themselves will not be successful. 1t
not only requires the atLempC, the or
ganizatiOn, TO be successful, but it de-
mands certain intellectual and moral
preparation. This can come only
through long enYironment,and it means
that success IN this sort of co operation
or socialism, will only come through
evolution. Many other efforts have
been made at such colonization, but
they have failed. Probably the first of
these was the early followers of Christ,
but lot of lndigents who would not
work, loaded themselves onto them tn
get living easily, and the liual failure
of the work is due in Il large measure
to this. A successful operation OF the
plan must contain ample provision for
summary measur for that class of
people.
MIR. Debs may fail and others fol.
lowing him may fail, but the cardinal
principles set out by him and others of
his class, that it is not healthy, moral
or normal condition for one man to
CONTROL thousands by Withholding
their means of sustenance, will live
and guide future generations to a bet
ter system, to more democratic So
cial organization, without in any man
ner impairing anyOne's just liberties,
but rather extending more liberty to a
greater number.

THE last Of the sugar contempt
trial cases has beeu concluded; Broker
Mccartney being discharged from ar
rest on Wednesday,. Judge Bradley
has made clean sweep of these cases,
holding that Senator Aliens questions
were not pertinent, and that he had
no right to ask them. Allen, coming
from prairie state, from. the wild
and woody West, does not part bis hair
in the middle, and when it comes
down to genuine eastern justice as
administered in our courts, Is not in it
by little bit. The people may think
it Is right, he may think 1t is right
himself, but who are the people and
who is he? II the courts of this coun-
try can nullify the action Of a cO.ordi-
nate branch Of the Government, and
deny them the right to investigate sub
jeCts pertaining to the action of their
own members, the Senate had better
sell out, quit business, and let some
judge go up there and administer the
government and make laws. Out
West Allen is considered considerable
of man; he is brOad-minded, jurist
of long standing; but it seems from
the decisions made in these sugar
cases, that re has been very much
Over-rated. If these cases had been
tried before a justice of the peace, a
trembling world stands aghast at what
might have been the possible result.

KANSAS has never in her history be-
fore had a congressman who was so
widely recognized and so much cOmpli-
mented as Jerry Simpson. Concerning
him and his fight, the Cincinnati En-,
quirer says: meanwhile Jerry Simp-
son is steadily assaulting the man in
the gap. 1t is a careful and wary as
sault, with definite object in view.
This obi ect is not the mere annoyance
of the speaker, although to some 1t
might appear so Jerry is reaching for
something beyond this. He is a gen
ulne political matadOr. If the speaker
should lose his aplOmb and traverse
one Of his own decisions, Jerry's OBJ
ject would have been attained. He is
honest and sincere. With both feet
planted on the constitution of the
United States, he believes that he is
fighting not only for his own rights,
but for the rights Of the House. 1t
seems singular that great newspapers
should ridicule him Their actions
seem to be based on the spirit that an
mates passengers 10 a horse car VINO
laugh and badger one of their own
number who protests against the in
fringement of his rights by an en-
plOyee."

IT WILL be remembered by those
who read the news during the winter
that the Indi ma legislature passed an
act for three-cent street car fares In

city was IN almost open riot. People
Overran the cars and rode anyway or

1T is now assured that Mr.. Breiden-
thai will retire from the craftsmanship
Of the State Central Committee within
the next thirty days. He has issued
circular letter to thu various county
committees, making this statement
and asking for certain information
which will be Of service to his sue
CessOr. Who his successor will be is
entirely unknown. J. NJ. Allen Of
Erie, it Is said, is 10 advance Of the
Others, while he is closely followed by
q Mr.. YearOut of EmpOria. These
are both good men. However 1t will
be very difficult thing to secure a
new man who can give the same en-
ergy and efficient management to the
campaign that Mr.. Breidenthal has
done. All in all he has probably con-
tributed more to the success of the
pOpulist party in Kansas than any
other one man, and in many instances
il is but poorly appreciated. The rea-
son he will retire is that the new
banking law imposes new duties upon
him which he cannot meet with JUS
tice to his position and the state and
at the same time attend to the work
devolying upon the State chairman.

THE newspapers, especially the re-
publican kind, have had much to say
about a magnificent blunder made by
the legislature IN its wholesale repeal
ing bill, claiming that it disorganized
half dozen or more judicial districts
in the eastern part of the State. The
attorney general gave it as his opinion
that since there was nothing in the I'll
tie of the bill covering this ground and
there was no intent to do it. It could
not be held to be constitutional. But
now comes Tom Fenlon of Leaven-
worth, one of the best lawyers in the
State, and says the act did not repeal
the laws organizing these districts at
all. II merely repealed some old obso-
lete provisions and left the latest act
in force, just as it was intended to do.
Lawyers differ about the effect of it,
but after it has gone through the courts
it will probably be all right.
