Did you ever stop to think what
INDIGESTION really means? IT means

Did you ever stop to think what
indigestion really means? 1t means
simply that your stomach is tired.
If our legs are tired, we ride. The
horse and the steam engine do the
work. Why not give your stomach
"a ride; that is, let something else do
it's work. Foods can be digested
outside of the body. All plants con-
tain digestive principles which will
do this. The Shaker Digestive Cor
dial contains digestive principles
and is preparation designed to
rest the stomach. The shakers them
selves have such unbounded conf
dence in it that they have placed 10
cent sample bottles on the market,
and it is said that even so small a
quantity proves beneficial in vast
majority of cases. All druggists
keep it.

Some Rambling Thoughts.
BY MEMO.

A sub-soil pillow, harrow, a roller
and cultivator are all good things
in their proper place and time; but
there are soils in which the deeper
you go the more you impoverish
your farm, and there are stages in
plant growth when the use of either
a roller or any other implement is
agricultural suicide. Because these
are facts maintainable against all
argument, and because so many
hundreds of thousands of my read
ers are farmers, / wish to make these
out-of- doors truths the starting
point for another Rambling
Thought"
The new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1876-1904, 1897-02-06

But am persuaded better things.
1t is not for nothing that we are
passing through our little day on
earth. All nature is vocal of the
value of combination, and of growth
by combination ;all history proclaims
it; and all heights of moral power
and accomplishment are possible by
means of it. The continuity of life
in nature, assures US in no uncer-
tain way Of the continuity of effort
ours-yours. Then, human fellow
begin to think and to prepare for
the generations yet to come, who
win look for blessings from your
hands just as rightfnlly as you en-
joy the blessings that come from
those before you whom you cannot
even name.

The Transmississippl exposition, In so far
as the state OF Iowa is especially concerned,
is receiving encouragement The appeal OF
the commission to the people Of the state
has been generously treated by the press.
Even the weekly papers, which do not have
large space to devote to one subject, have
been very generous in publishing the appeal
entire. Some OF the strongest endorsements
have come from democratic papers. The
commission Is, Of course, a nonpartsan body.
but the Republican takes pleasure in ac-
kaowledging the courtesy Of the democratic
editors. The editor of the Davenport Demo-

CAUSES OF PROSPERITY.

The New York republican state com
mittee, in its address to the voters of
that state, says: "With the fact estab-
lished that Il party was in power which
would never tolerate the thought of dis
owning the country's obligations, which
would maintain at all hazards the ma
tional credit, which would never allow
anything stamped as an American dol
lar to be of less value than dollar of
gold, and upon the passage of a new
protective tariff, assuring to the people
plenty of work, fair wages and ready
market, confidence was at once resto ed"
Let it be admitted that the chief cause
of returning prosperity is good crops
ana an enlarged foreign demand for
them, still it is true that restoration of
financial confidence and improved in
dustrial conditions were absolutely es-
sential to return of prosperity and
these things have come through re-
publican success and republican policy
Those who ascribe the better times en-
tirely to crop conditions ignore the fact
that improvement began Immediately
after last years election, months in ad-
vance of any knowledge that this coun-
try would be called upon to supply Il
large deficiency in the grain crops of
Europe. Within thirty days after the
victory for sound money and protection
there was marked revival of industrial
activity and the number of employees in
the manufacturing establishments of the
country was increased by tens of thou
sands. At the same time the distrust
which for months had pervaded financial
circles, prompting capital to the most eX-
treme conservatism, was dispeled ana
business men who We're before unable
to obtain money found no difficulty in
getting it to the full extent of their
credit. The financial and business con
straint preceding the election was re
laXed as soon as the victory for sound
money and protection was known and
from that moment the march toward
prosperity, begun With this crop cond-
tions at Home or abroad had nothing
whatever to do, because they could not
be foreseen.
known, therefore, in regard TO big
wheat deficiency in Europe and a good
crop here, we had started on the road
to prosperity. Obviously the causes then
operative We're the restoration of tinan-
cial confidence and the assurance of Il
change of tariff policy that would jul
diciously protect the industries of the
country and increase the demand for
labor. The delay in securing the latter
retarded the advance to prosperity, but
still there was progress. Had the new
tariff law gone into effect two months
earlier than it did as the republicans
sought to have it, the manufacturing in
dustries would have been more active
last June than they now are, to the
great gain of labor and all other inter
estS.
We do not underyalue the i'm
portance of crop conditions as factor
in the restoration of prosperity. Dollar

BRYAN AND MS PASSES.
Dcnouncing Corporations While Ac-

Troy IN. W Press
The Omaha Bee publishes a fac-simile OF
the letter in which William J. Bryan made
application for a free railroad pass from Sac
ramento, Cal, to Portland, Ore. Bryan had
previously travelled from ogden to Sacra-
mento on a free pass. Bryan defends his
application by saybig that he asked for the
pass on the ground of his connection with
the Omaha World-Herald. AS Bryan's posi-
tion as an editor of the World-Herald's stan
expired last year he claims the free trans
portation by virtue of owning a few shares
OF stock in that paper, and on the papers
advertising contract The bus.Iess manager
Of the World-Herald says that it has no ad-
vertisns contract with the Southern Pacific
road and has not been printing any of thaa
roads advertising matter
This Is the man who although he Travelled
to the Chicago convention on free passes. in
sisted with a great flourish on paying the
faro oi himself and wife on the return trip,
and who during his presidential canvass,
called everybodys attention to the fact that
he was paying his way ard to his contention
that no one was entitled to special privileges
from the railroads. Now as capitalist,
stockhoder. he asks favors OF a railroad COM
pany.
II Bryan had not been receiving re-
Gently large income from his book and from
the lectures in which he has denounced cor
poratious and their favors, his offense would
Iot be so rank. Or IL he had asked for the
half fare usually allowed to children, no ono
would have objected But it looks as If he
had been crucifyng opposition to corporate
privilege on a cross of personal profit. The
cny loophole for escape left Bryan is to plead
that he was spelling the Egyptians by maxi
ing them eXpend motive power in carrying
him long distances without receiving any re-
turn for the service,

The attorney general some time ago

whether goods brought in foreign yes

possible, TO accomplish this, because it

FAITH In GENERAL WOODFORD
Ex-Minister Taylor Says the New Minister
Can Be Trusted.
WILL PROVE EQUAL TO ANY OCCASION
Mr. Taylor Declines to Discuss the
Interview of Ills Successor
with the Spanish Fer
cian Minister.

LONDON, Sept. 2l.--Hanns Taylor, the
former United States minister to Spain. ar
rived here last evening and called at the
United States embassy today. In an inter
view Mr.. Taylor said: "The grave negotia-
tlons pending between the United States and
Spain as to the war in Cuba are now en-
trely in the hands OF General Woodford, who
has had fruitful experience both in peace
and war and will be equal to the occasion,
whatever 1t may be-"
Mr.. Taylor was questioned In regard to the
accuracy OF the statements contained in the
dispatch from San Sebastian to the Temps
OF Paris, purporting to give the substance of
the interview which took place on Sunday
last between General Stewart l.. Woodford,
the United states minister to Spain, and the
duke Of Tetuan, the Spanish minister of for
eign affairs, in which General Wuodford is
said TO have insisted courteousy but firmly
upon the necessity of terminating the war
in Cuba, and to have declared that If 1t Is
not terminated by the end of October the
United States will feel justified in taking
measures to secure the independence OF Cuba.
In reply, the former minister said:
my lips are sealed until after my arrival
at Washington
While Mr.. Taylor refused to discuss the
matter, his manner tended to confirm the
story told by the correspondent of the Paris
Temps.
Regarding the general feeling in Spain,
Mr. Taylor said, Il must in justice say
that l have never received any personal dis
courtesy from any one, but for the last
year my residence was guarded by soldiers"
Mr.. Taylor will pay a visit to Prof Free
man at Oxford, and will complete his book
on The Origin and Growth Of the English
Constitution" and will sail for home on
