democratic county Convens.on.

II nc COuASy
democratic party in Tyler county
will meet in Middlebourne on Sat
urday next for the purpose OF Sc
lecting nominees for some OF the
various offices to be filled at the
election held in November. In
years passed BY it'has not been ct
all material whether the democrats
ofthis county held any conventions
OF made any nominations for the
different Offices to be filed for the
reason that the county was SO over
whelmingly in the hands Of 0. w.
o.. Hardman and his lieutenants
that there was no possible chance
for them to win out.
This year the Review believes 1t
will be different. There has been
a great deal of dissatisfaction en-.
gendered in the ranks of the repub-
lican party caused principally by
the high-handed manner in which
20. w. O." and his gang have been
carrying on their nefarious work.
Of course there are always num-
belless petty chickering's among POI
lticians, but this year the dissatis
faction and dissention is of some
importance, and principally by its
actions at the county convention OF
that party held at Middlebourne a
couple of weeks ago, did the repuS,
licans Of Tyler county pave the way
for a number of republicans of the
old rock-ribbed, hide-bound sort to
vote the democratic ticket, or at
least for some of the men who will
be on the democratic ticket.
At the convention to be held on
Saturday the democrats have some
important work before them. Two
of the offices for which nominees
will be named are member of the
house of delegates and member OF
the board of county commissioners.
To people in this end of the county
these are the most important Offices
in the whole list to be filled this
year. In the first place, we want a
man to represent the county in the
house Of delegates who will do
something for Sistersville and its
surroundings, and for practically
the same reason do we want good,
honest, reliable, conscientious man
for county commissioner.
The matter of license or no Ii
cense will be the grounds on which
the fight for county commissioner
will be made, and there is little
doubt but that Sistersville will
stand by the license man, The Re
viewis for prohibition where such
a thing is possible, but in the case
in this town it has been very fully
demonstrated that it is impossible
to stop the sale of intoxicants.
1t has been tried num-
Der of times, and has always been
a signal failure. In such a case, the
Review believes that the business
should hot d be properly governed 9T rn41l by the
laws of the state, in instead safl OF Of allow
ing it to continue in the manner in
which it has been conducted dur
ing the past FIVE years. ri r....
Practically the only reason why

Against Smoking.

The young women students at TIN,
University of Michigan have taken &
stand against smoking in the corridors
of the building or ON the campus. They
say they are obliged to pass through
crowds of male students, nearly all OF
them putting out great clouds of nau.
seating cigarette smoke. The fumes sat,
urate both corridors and recitation
rooms and make many of the girls feel
sick. Woman s Journal.

No doubt the city of Sistersville
needs some special legislation; to
this no reasonable man should OBJ
ject, and we can assure them that
Hon. M. w. Burgess will look to
their interests, as we'll as to the in
terest of all citizens of this district.
We are satisfied, too, that Mr..
Hughes, will be there to discharge
his duties, and citizen of Sisters
vile will never suffer by reason OF

Mr.. Burgess and Mr.. Hughes
have both been tried and found
wanting. They are the creatures
of Hardman and his followers and
they are against, Sistersville every
day in the year. The Republican
would not favor either of the above
named gentlemen if they would
favor our city, and it is only be-
cause they oppose us that the Re-
publican support them, We chal-
lenge either of the gentlemen to
come out openly and back up the
Republicans assertions. If for US,
let them say so openly. If not, say
so and this will end the matter.
We dare them to, come out either

The following program will ex-
plain mum Der of things and acts.
Judge Freer is a candidate for Con-
gress and the presumption is he will
be elected and of course there will
be judge appointed to fill the va
cancy. The new judge will be ap-
pointed by Governor Atkinson.
Governor Atkinson is candidate
for United Senator. Oh Hartman
wants to be judge. His man, Fri
day, Hughes, is to vote for Akin
son for senator, provided Atkinson
will appoint Hardman as judge. If
any one can think of a more dread
full calamity Detailing our people
than to, have Hardman as judge it
is more than we can think ofat this
time. With Hartman as Judge the
people here would have to sell out
and move away. This program is
given to US as being true, and the
reason why Hughes was nominal
ed. 1t is not at ali unreasonable
but we hope no such state of.things
will ever exist here in our county.

PECULIAR POlS0NS.
GENERATED IN rAE HUMAN BODY
The Result Of Imperfect Digestion Of
Food.

Every living thing, plant OF animal,
contains within itself the germs OF
certa!a decay and death
In the human body these germs OF
disease and death (called by scientists
Ptomaiues). are usually the result OF
imperfect digestion OF food; the re-
suit OF indigestion or DYSPEPSIA.
The stomach, from abuse, weakness.
does not promptly aud thoroughly di-
gest the food. The result Is heavy,
sodden mass which feIments (the first
process OF decay poisoning the blood,
making 10 thin, weak, and lacking In
in red corpuscles; poisoning the'brai n
causing the headaches and pain In
the eyes.
Bad digestion irritates the heart,
causing palpitatiOn and finally bring
ing on disease Of this very important
organ.
Poor digestion poisous the kidne S,
causing BrIght's disease and diabetes.
And this Is so because every organ,
every nerve depends upon the stomach
alone for nOurishment aud renewal,
and weak digestion shows itself not
only 10 loss OF appetite and flesh, but
In weak nerves and muddy COM
plexion.
The great English scientist, Hux-
ley, the best start ia life is a sound
stomach. Weak stomachs fail TO d.
gest food properly, because they lack
the proper quantity OF digestive acids

genie products; the most sensible
remedy in all cases OF indigestion, Is
Co take after each meal, one or two of

The regular use OF Stuart'sDyspepsia
