The Cloak Thrown on.

AT recent Brown county convention
called to select delegates to the pop
state convention at Aberdeen, w. e.
Kidd, who was at the latter convention
chosen chairman of the pop state COM
mittee, made an address which in view
OF his position as exponent of popism,

can only reproduce some extracts
which we hope our populist friends
will carefully consider, and our silver
republican friends are especially urged
to give these extracts attention. He
said that it meyer pays to sacrifice

means stagnation. Harmony means
hell in politics. In the present cam.
paign it is the Offices. They are

platform through reversed telescope.
a little further along Mr.. Kidd tells his
audience this: The party Of reform is
passing: the party Of revolution is COM
ing Again he says: But let me
whisper heresy that may shock you
some of you. The money question is
as big humbug as the tariff question,
and about as dead an issue hope we
shall never waste another campaign
discussing it. We will scrap for the
Offices in this campaign, but thereafter
there is more important business. /"
Still further along Mr.. Kidd asserts:
sIt is not reform we want, hut reYolu-
tion. II it is along such lines as these
that Mr.. Kidd proposes to conduct the
campaign for the triple alliance,
which he asserts is chiefly for the Off
ces, the people of this state can..readily
see the hollowness OF the pretention
for reform and the utter absence OF
honesty in dealing with state issues or
national Issues which this peep behind
the curtain reveals. Mr.. Kidd has
done the republicans of the state,a,real
andssubstantial service by. his frank
ness at the beginning Of the campaign.

believe that the programme act
ually includes an invasion of
Spain itself by our troops. This
belief was increased by the pres
fence in Washing ton of Gen. Stew
art e. Woodford. who is still u.
s. Minister to Spain, although
he ceased to perform the funct-
ions of that position at the break,
ing out of the war. That he was
sent for by the President IS
known, and it is believed that it
was to furnish information that
could be utilized in the move
ment against Spain, whether
that movement be confined to
Commodore Watso11's fleet or
shall include an army of inya-
sion.
Although peace talk continues
to be cabled from Europe there
is nothing bnt fighting in ad-
n1inistration circles. the Presi-
dent and his cabinet having be-
come satisfied that Spain will not
accept peace on the terms that
would be offered until she is fur
ther Inundated and having de-
termined to bring her further
humiliation at the earliest mo-
ment possible,
The war department has closed
a coutract for the transportation
of' the Spanish soldiers that
surrendered at Santiagosto Spain,
and they will be sent as quick as
the ships can get to Santiago to
take them.
The rush to enlist has not been
equal III the states. Seven states
---1ndiana, Minnesota, Missouri,
New York, Rhode Island, Vir-
ginia and Wisconsin--have fur
nished more than their quota, but
Iall therest are short, a majority
lat least oue-third, and North
Carolina. has only sent S. men to
meet its quota of 7S5 under the
Presidents second call.
Gen. Shafter seems to have
had the law on his side when he
declined, after the Spaniards had
surrendered to him, to allow Ad-
nliral Sampson to take possession
of the Spanish merchant ships
that were IN the harbor at Santi-
ago, and put prize crews in
charge of them. Several de-
cisions by the o. S. Supreme
Court have a direct bearing upon
this matter. In one of them the
opinion by Justice Field, it was
stated that no prize money could
be allowed for captures or for the
destruction of vessels by the navy
where the army had aided, even
by its operations several miles
distant. 1t is claimed by some
that the above decision will bar
lthc payment of head-money to the
officers and crews of the vessels

the army which virtually drove

WHOLESOME ADVICE.
For People Whose stomachs Are
Weak and Digestion Poor.

DR.. Harlandson, whose opinion in
diseases is worthy of attention, says
when "A man or woman comes to me
complaining of indigestion, loss of ap-
petite, sour stomach, belching, sour
watery- -risings, headaches, sleepless-
ness, lack of ambition and a general
run down nervous condition l advise
them to take after each meal one or
two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets al
lowing the tablet to dissolve in the
mouth, and thus mingle with the food
eaten. The result Is that the food Is
speedily digested before It has time to
sour and ferment. These tablets will
digest food anyway whether the stom-
ach wants to or not, because they con-
tain harmless digestive principles,
vegetable essence, pepsin and Golden
Seal which supply just what the weak
stomach lacks.
/ have advised the tablets with great
success, both in curing indigestion and
to build up the tissues. increase flesh
In thin nervous patients, whose real
trouble was dyspepsia and as soon as
the stomach was put to rights they
did not know what sickness was.
A fifty-cent package of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets can be bought at any
drug store, and as they are not a
secret patent medicine. they can be
used as often as desired with full as
surance that they contain nothing
harmful in the slightest degree: on the
contrary, anyone whose stomach Is at
all deranged will find great benefit
from the use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. They will cure any form of
p.,t
cancer of the stomach Full size pack

Five miles from Alamagordo is La
Luz, the present terminus of the rail-
road. 1t was settled thirty years ago
by MeXicans, but since then many
Americans have found their way
across the desert prairie to it. Fruit
raising has been the principal business
here for years, and now that a rail-
road has reached it and shipping ad-
vantages are offered, fruit-raising
should attract more attention than ever
before. The fruit has an unequalled
flavor and is never attacked by worms.
Neither are the trees, which present an
entirely different appearance from
those we see hereabouts. All kinds of
vegetables can be raised with scarcely
an effort.

THE LUMBER ROAD.


AT La Luz, thA lumber road which
runs UP into the Sacramento noun
tains connects with the line. Lumber
is now very scarce in that region and
the company is very much hampored in
it's work for lack of it. Therefore it
has been thought wise to concentrate
every energy in the completion of this
railroad and the opening up of the
lumber tract which comprises a strip
forty miles long and twelve miles wide
of the finest timber in the country.
"The construction of this road was
full of engineer difficulties, but they
have been overcome and in about n
month it viii | be completed. 1t is
twenty miles in length and runs along
the La Luz and Fransnel canOns.
Down this road the trees will be taken
to La Luz and thence along the main
lire to Alamogordo where they will be
cut and prepared for market.
"Our party went VI to the timber
land which is from 1000 to 1900 feet
above the sea level. 1t was an inter
estirg and somewhat exciting trip, the
wagon road winding through the
mountain along the edge of preCipic6S
that gave magnificent views of the bot
tom of the canyon. We spent two nights
camping in the mountains and found
the thermometer registered in the
neighborhood of sixty in the middle
of the day. The air is SO dry in
that entire region, however. that
heat and cold can be endured with
less annoyance than in Pennsylvania.
These mountains are already much
visited by invalids and will be the Nee
ca of persons suffering from pulmon-
ary troubles within the next few years,
I'VE went no further than La Luz
and therefore did not inspect the coal
beds at Salado. They have, however
been subjected to every possible tests
by the best experts in the country and
their values fully determined and the
quantity found sufficient to supply 4
large tonnage to the road for three gen.
erations. AS soon as the lumber land is
opened the work of pushing the rail-
road on to Salado will be taken up. |
