Republican Tactics In Illinois.

Springfield Register.
The relations between the two
leading factions OF the republican
party in this state are becoming
more strained every day. Senator
Cullom at the head OF one and Sena.
tor Mason at the head OF the other,
are in constant conflict over appoint
ments. Cullom appears to have no
influence. and yet he cannot be en-
tirely ignored. Mason is at the head
OF the original McKinleyites, and he,
Of course, is persona grata" at the
white house, while every time the
president sees Cullom he cannot re-
frain from thinking Of that famous
letter in which the senator declared
that. Of all the candidates for the re-
publican nomination for president,
Mckinley was the weakest, and had
the poorest qualifications. 1t now
looks as il the Cullomites are going
to get as little out Of the federal ad-
ministration as the McKinleyites are
receiving from King John. Alto
gether. the situation is decidedly
amusing and encouraging from a
democratic standpoint.

The True Remedy,

W. M. Repine. editor of the lis
kilwa, ILL.,, "Chief," says: 1--WE
won't keep house without DR.. Kings
New Discovery for Consumption,
Coughs and colds. Experimental
with many others, but never got the
true remedy until we used DR.. Kings
New Discovery. No other remedy
can take its place in our home. as in
it we have a certain and sure cure
for Coughs, Colds. Whooping Cough,
ETC." 1t is idle to experiment with
other remedies. even if they are
urged on you as just as good as DR..
Kings New Discovery. They are
not rs good, because this remedy has
a record of cures and beside is guar
anteed. 1t never fails to satisfy.
