Republicans are not saying any
thing about the jobs whereby the
state officials, in collision with 9TH
ers, looted the state treasury of thous-
ands of the peoples dollars wrung
from them through exorbitant taxa
ton. What the recent legislative
investigation disclosed we will spread
before the people of Howard county in
few days. What the COMMITTEES was
choked off from probing remains for
the future legislators to show up. 1t
is remarkable that the grand larceny
that has been going on among the
trusted servants of the people at Des
Moines, would have remained q secret
from the people, but for quarrel be
tween the Capital and the Register,
two rival republican papers at Des
Moines, both of which have had a
hand in these pilferings of the peoples
money, through extortionate con-
tracts, SO loosely drawn that they
have proflted thousands, where but
dollars would have been liberal com.
pensation for the service. 1t is high
time for a change, when the republican
party has become as corrupt as Tam.
many was under the Tweed regime
in. New York.
1t is also remarkable that neither
of the Republican papers in Howard
county have thus far apprised the
public of the systematic pilfering that
for years has been going on ut Des
Moines, among the republican ofic
ials and their co-conspirators.

It Finds Striking Counterpart in Recent
World Triumphs.
Napoleon knew we'll the value OF a
victory. After Austerlitz the world
seemed bis. Fame invited, fortune
favored, everything stimulated his
aspiring ambition. With growing
power he gathered the fruits Of
victory. And SO has it ever been.
Success succeeds. A notable illustra-
ton of this truth is furnished by the
great victories won at the Worlds
Fair in 1913 aud the California Mid
wiuter Fair in '94 by DR.. Prices
Cream Baking Powder. Ever in
creasing sales aud popularity il
the result. The people have prompt
ly ratified the official verdict that
declared DR.. Prices, for leavening
power, keeping qualities, purity and
general excellence the foremost
baking powder in all the world.'
Quite as quickly as the great EN-
peror do they known the value of a
victory that means worldwide su-
prcmacy.

With free coinage for silver it is
asked, what is to MAINTAIN its parity
with gold?
In answer it may be asked what
maintains the parity between coined
silver dollars now, and gold?
The reply is the law! Not only ev-
cry silver coined dollar, but every
full legal tender dollar of paper, ever
issued by authority of congress, was
always upon a parity with gold. Why
Because under the law they perform
ed money every function of the people
or the government.

Mr.. B. P. McAl1ister, of Harrodsburg,
KY, had Catarrh for years. He writes:
81 could see no Improvement what
ever, though I was constantly treated
with sprays and washes, and different
inhaling remedies-in fact, could feel
that each winter was worse than the
year previous.
"Finally it was brought to my notice
that Catarrh was blood disease, and
after thinking over the matter, I saw it
was unreasonable to expect to be cured
by remedies which only reached the
surface. then decided to try S. S. S.,
and the results were gratifying, for
after few bottles were used, noticed
perceptible Improvement. Continu-
ing to take the remedy, the disease was
forced out of my system, and COM
plete and permanent cure was the
result. advise all who have this
dreadful disease to abandon their local
treatment, which has never done them
any good, and take SIS. (Swift's Spe-
cifc), remedy which can reach the
disease and cure it."
To continue the wrong treatment for
Catarrh is to continue to suffer. Swift's
Specific never fails to cure even
the most aggravated cases. It is a
real blood remedy, and cures Catarrh,
Rheumatism, Contagious Blood Poison,
Eczema, Cancer, Scrofu1a, and all other
blood diseases, S. S, S, is guaranteed

How to
eCatarrh.

Every sufferer from catarrh should
know that it is impossible to cure the
disease with sprays, washes, inhala-
tons, etc., which are universally used.
In fact, the experience of growing
worse all the while is proof that the
treatment is all wrong. Many
who have been under treatment for
years and met with disappointment In
stead of benefit are willing to doubt
that there is any cure for Catarrh.
The trouble is that all of the treat
ment they have received has been mis-
directed, and has not touched their
trouble. Catarrh is a stubborn deep
seated blood disease, and everybody
should know that to simply treat the
surface, that is, the local irritation,
does not reach the disease. A blood
remedy is needed, but it must be good
one; remedy which goes down to the
very bottom of the trouble and forces it
out. SIS. (Swift's Specifc) is the only
one which can have the slightest effect
upon Catarrh, for it is the only one which
goes to the seat of the disease, and per-
manently gets rid Oft. This is the only
reasonable way to treat Catarrh.

There is perhaps no more subtle test
of mans firmness of fiber than the
way in which he receives an apology,
says writer in the Illustrated Ameri-
can. The semi-barbarian is always with
us, though masked perhaps in a silk
hat or gown of Partisan eNquisiteness.
He Gt is just as often she) hates to
apologize. He thinks that he lowers
himself in trying to make amends, as
indeed, in the eyes of one of his own
kind, he does. He may know quite well
that he has put himself in the wrong.
He may feel that, perhaps with no i'll
intention whatever, he has done some
one else on injury. lie may regret it;
but to say so would be for him a sacri-
flee of personal dignity. To injure or
malign or wound another is to him no
humiliation. The humiliation would
lie in acknowledging that he had been
in the wrong. He can stand being in
the wrong. lie can hold his head up
quite comfortably under such an impu-
tation. But to acknowledge ito
"crawl," as his apt phrase goes-that
aliases him in his own eyes. He thinks
that the person to whom he apologies
is metaphorically setting lordly heel
upon his neck. When silllen semi
barbarian of this familiar type receives
an apology he does, in spirit, set his
heel on the apologist's neck. He ac-
cepts the apology with an air that
claims magnanimity for doing so. His
condescending graciousness is the last
touch of insult.

If honesty in public place is
common, why make such fuss over
the fact that the late Judge Greshan's
estate amounts but $4,000? Judge
Gresham could have left a million
had he SO desired. Many men in
public have left millions as the result
of saving salaries amounting to S.
900 per annum, but the world will
forget them much sooner than it will
