1T would clarity matters a little if the
newspapers that call on the people TO
uphold the President In his controversy
with Spain over the peace treaty would
explain what upholding the President
would mean for the country. We know
that it means a perpetuation of AIgerism
at time when an enlarged regular army
is TO be organized, but what does it mean
now? Here is Mr.. Boutelle, asserting
that the President was driven to war
against Spain by the Democrats. and in
timating that he will not allow the na-
ton to be burdened with more colonial
territory than he can help taking. Are
we to support the President in taking all
the Philippines, or only the island of Lu-
zon? The question is reasonable. and the
Republican who cannot answer it should
be silent.

IS IT A TRIFLE?
THAT COMMON TROUBLE, ACID
DYSPEPSIA OR SOUR STOMACH.
Vow Recognized as a Cause of Seri-
GUS Disease.

Acid dyspepsia, commonly called heart
burn or sour stomach. is form of indi-
,ostion resulting from fermentation of the
fooa The stomach being too weak to
,,romptIy digest it, the food remains until
farmentation begins, filling the stomach
r,;tb gas and bitter, sour, burning taste
IN the mouth is often present. This con-
d;,;on soon becomes chronic, and being an
e,,arv-day occurrence, is given but little
attention. Because dyspepsia is not i'm
mediately fatal. many people do nothing
for the trouble.
Within a recent period a remedy has
been discovered prepared solely to cure
dysnepsia and stomach troubles. 1t is
known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
and Is now becoming rapidly used and
prescribed as radical cure for every
form of dyspepsia
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been
MIA ced before the public, and are sold by
druggists everywhere at 50 cents per pack
age. 1t Is prepared by the Stuart Chem
icaI Co.. Marshall, Mich, and while 1t
promptly and effectually restores vigor-
Gus digestion, at the same time Is per-
fectly harmless and will not injure the
most delicate stomach but on the con-
trary, by giving perfect digestion
strengthens the stomach improves the ap-
petite and makes life worth living.

Outlook in the West.

Among the States in which senatorial
elections will occur next winter are Wyo-
ming and Washington. Latest advices re-
ceived at Republican headquarters are
that the chances of Senator Clark for re-
election are most encouraging. 1t Is
thought the contest will be close, but he
expects to pull through. In Washington
the situation is reported doubtful. Mr.
Babcock does not claim to have any re-
liable information, and the Democrats as
sert that Senator Wilson will be defeated.

Concord N. H., Oct 2S-The sensation
Of the present political campaign in New
Hampshire is the charge made by former
Gov. Charles A. Busiel, leader of one Re-
publican faction in this State, that Sem
ator Jacob H. Galhnger, chairman of the
Republican State committee and leader of
another faction, has violated the civil
service laws by soliciting campaign con-
tributons from Federal officeholders.
Senator Gallinger denies that he has wit
tingly violated any law, and characteriZes
the charges as campaign roorback that
will fail of its effect. Much interest is
felt in the attitude in the matter of Sem
ator William Z. Chandler, Senator Gal
fingers colleague, who is understood to
have repeatedly counseled against levy
ing such contributions and to have re-
signed from the State committee because
his advice in this matter was not followed.

FOOD FOR THE CAMPAIGN.
Active EIcycnth-Heur Work of ANY
ious Republicans.


The force at Republican Headquarters
today was kept busy sending out docu-
ments 10 Congressional candidates, who
have been telegraphing at a lively rate
for speeches. to be circulated during the
last ten days of the campaign. The lit
erature most in demand relates 10 the
prosperity that the Mckinley Admins
tration is alleged TO have produced, and
the candidates seem to think that this
point cannot be rubbed in too strong
in localities where voters are reported
to be careless and undecided. Other
speeches that are much i'll demand just
now relate TO the money question. and the
price of wheat since the Republicans
came into power here.
The indications are that the Republican
committees will dispose of all its litera-
ture within another week.

IMPORTANT NOTICE.

Many Of the JOURNAL subscribers
have requested that their subscription
account be presented each year, rs 1T is
much moro convenient to puy one dol
lar than to wait until the amount
reaches higher figure. We have
decided to notify each subscriber rcgu-
larly every year and continue doing so
until accounts are paid. We believe
everyone who really wants the Jour
NAL is willing to pay for it and that
those who don't pay don't want the
paper. The accounts have been placed
in the hands of John Lally, who
has been connected with the JOURNAL
for several years and 10 authorized to
make settlement OF all accouHts. No
person need walt 10 consult the editor
as Mr.. Lally's receipt is sufficient, and
his statement of accounts is correct.

Squire Newkirk was sowing oats on
his Rice county farm the other day,

couple of the neighborhcod drove up
In buggy and asked to be married.
The old squire dropped the lines, turned
around in his seat on the drill and made
the couple one while they were still sit
ting in the buggy, after which the bride
groom promised to bring him likely
young shoat for his fee, kissed his
bride and drove merrily away.
