The Wood River Times has the fol-
lowing: "Hou. Chas. S. Hartman, NOM
inee of the Silver Republicans and Pop
ultsts OF Montana. for congress has
Withdrawn, aud asks that the name OF
Hon. A, j. Campbell, the Democratic
nominee, be placed on all these tickets
and supported by all who believe In the
free coinage Of silver. By his action
Hartman gives an additional proof OF
his devotion 10 the silver cause. That
he. a man OF national reputation should
withdraw from the race to permit q
comparatively unknown and untried
man TO be elected, Is an act that ia al
most heroic. The example thus set
should be followed elsewhere, and an
opportunity TO do so is offered the Pop
ulis.s Of Idaho, as they know that their
candidate cannot be elected, and that
the utmost he can do Is to endanger the
election OF tried aud true silver man.

The object OF the goldbugs during the
present campaign, will be to keep the
silver question in the dark as much as
possible. They will talk about the war
but not about Secretary Alger. They
will talk about economy, but will not
endorse McConnell's administration.
They will tell the people that unless
Moss is elected governor that capital
will quit the state, but they wont tell
that during the past two years more
capital has been invested in Idaho than
in any previous two years, since the
state was admitted. Record.

OF all the specialists in the world, there
probably are not two that have as wide all
cxperienCe in the treatment of women's
diseases as Dr. r. V. Pierce chief consult
ing physician to the Invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, n. Y. With
the assistance of his staff of able physi-
clans, he has prescribed, in the past thirty
years for many thousands of women. DR..
Pierce is pre- -cminently a sympathetic ply
sician. Perhaps more than any other man
in the profession he realizes the hardships
of woman's work, and the disadvantages
under which she labors because of the
weak delicate and susceptible structure of
the feminine organism. His immense prac-
tiCe III diseases peculiar to women forced
upon his recognition the fact that women
would never take the proper care of their
health, so long as that care required the
repugnaut examinations " and - local
treatments" insisted upon by nearly all
physicians. After years of study he invent
ed a remedy now known as DR.. Pierce's
Favorte Prescription that is an absolute
and unfailing cure for the most complicated
and obstinate cases of diseases peculiar to
women This wonderful medicine cures in
the privacy of the home, and does away
with the necessity for obnoxious local
treatment" 1t imparts health, strength,
vigor and elasticity to the organs distinctly
feminine and fits for wifehood and mother
