Congressman McCleary spoke last
night at New Ulm. This is almost
the first speech which the Congress-
man has made in his own campaign
this year, although he has been &C
lively engaged in campaign work for
the party for several months. Having
been elected by his colleagues of the
Minnesota Congressional delegation a
member of the National Congressional
Campaign committee, Mr.. McCleary
was Immediately placed on it's ex-
ecutive committee and acco rded the
the additional honor of the chair
manship Of the Literary Bureau, In
the management Of which he has
been engaged since July. The i'm
portant position which Mr.. McCleary
fills in this capacity gives Minnesota
a prominence in national political
affairs which adds greatly 10 the
prestige of the state and to it's power
and influence in shaping national
legislation.
Since the middle of September, Mr..
McCleary has been speaking in Indi-
ana, Illinois. Michigan, Kansas,
Nebraska and Iowa, declining scores
of fiattering invitations to fill i'm
portant assignments in other states
in order to get some time to conduct
his own campaign in his home dis
trict. From now until the polls close
he will devote his time to addressing
the people of this district concluding
the campaign with speech at the
opera house the night before election.

Mother'sFriend

We know that in thousands of cases
it has proved more than blessing to
expectant mothers. 1t overcomes morn
ing sickness. It relieves the sense of
tightness. Headaches cease, and dam
ger from Swollen, Hard and Rising
Breasts is avoided. Labor itself is
shortened and shorn of most of the pain.
We know that many doctors recon-
mend it, and we know that multitudes
of women go to the drug stores and buy
it because they are sure their physicians
have no objections. We ask a trial
just fair test. There is no possible
chance of injury being the result, be-
cause Mothers Friend is scientific
ally compounded. 1t is sold at ST. a bot
tie, and should be used during most OF
the period of CESSATION, although great
relief is experienced if used only short
time before childbirth. Send for our il.
lustrated book about Mothers Friend.

Il Word
to Doctors

We have the highest regard for the
medical profession. Our preparations
are not sold for the purpose of antagon-
izing them, but rather as an aid. We
lay it down as an established truth that
internal remedies are positively injuri-
GUS to expectant mothers. The distress
and discomforts experienced during the
months preceding childbirth can be al
leviated only by external treatment-by
applying liniment that softens and re.
lakes the over-strained muscles. We
make and sell such a iniment, COM
bining the ingredients in a manner
hitherto unknown, and call it

Johns enthusiastic supporters must
have failed to understand that the

of considerably more force than it's
forward motion.

ABLE ADDRESS.
j. Adam Bede Talks to a Large
Audience.
Issues of the Campaign Brought Home
With Telling Effect by the, Editor.
Orator.

The announcement that j. Adam
Bede was to give an address brought
out an audience Tuesday evening tha
crowded the opera house. showing
that interest in political subjects is
not dead in Mankato and vicinity.
Applause was frequent and h earty.
A number of representative Re-
publicans occupied seats on the stage.
The band was present and rendered
several selections. Harry Paddock,
chairman Of the county committee,
introduced Mr.. Bede in few words.
Mr.. Bede is as brilliant as ever, and
interspersed his logic with witty
sallies that illustrated the points
which he sought to bring out.
Mr.. Bede said that he hardly need
ed to speak in Mankato this year, as
the issues were nearly the same as
two years ago, and there were nearly
the same candidates. The Demo
cratic-P opulist ticket is largely made
up of ex-Republicans, and as long as
the voters have got to vote for Re-
publican anyway it would be better
to vote for regular one rather than
an irregular one.
Mr. Bede called attention to the
fact that no laboring men who want
work are out Of employment this
year. In the iron range they are pay
ing $1.75 to So day for labor. Two
years ago the opposition told us that
there could be no happiness without
the silver standard. The speaker
said that he had never seen so much
happiness in the world as there is to-
day. Why, at St. Cloud the other
day, a young man went to call on his
best girl and while he was there the
health officer came along and nailed
placard on the house, quarant lining
it for forty days. And yet they tell
us there is no happiness and 60 on
wagging the tale of woe everywhere.
Where there is fault finding, it is gen.
orally due to the fault finders them
selves. AT Falrmont there is sign
of money to loan nailed on the side of
a creamery. The brindled cow is now
locking horns with the "money
power"
A glorious sunburst of liberty &C.
Cured May 1st when God and Ad-
miral Dewey annexed the Philippine
archipelago to the United States. 1
don't pretend to say what we should
do with it, but the feeling of the
American people is that what God has
joined together let no man put
asunder
This is just the time for old time
Democrats to climb on the elephant.
The Democrat who believes in the
gold standerd ought to stand in the
Republican procession and 90 along
with it, at least this year. The North
and South is reunited and we want to
unite the East and West. We ought
to feel kindly toward England, which
buys more than half of our exports.
AS long as am getting those things
which 1 have stood for, in the Repub-
lican party, am going to stay with
it. I think it was Shakespeare VINO
who said that Democracy by any
other name will smell as sweet"
The old issues have been settled
and no new issues have arisen, except

CLERK OF COURT.

The only candidate for this Office is
Stephen Thorne, who was re-nomi-
mated upon the Republican ticket.
He has filled the office for several
years in most satisfactory manner,
and is one of the most popular officials
in the county. "Steve" will poll a
big vote and deserves it.

The judges of election met Wednes
day to prepare the poll lists. They will

a thing not needed in political con-
vention, and Mr.. Bede is right. The
whine OF the Popocrat that the Re-
publican platform it not identically
the same in every respect that it was
several years ago, is an admission that
he does not recognize that the world
Is advancing.
