them at times are the fOreruuners of seri.
Gus disease.
More men would succeed in carrying out
their life purposes If they would put their
constitutions in strong, forceful, high con-
dition without waiting until disease has
plunged its axe into their vital organs. If
a man who is using up his working vitality
faster than his nutritive powers supply 1t,
will use DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis.
covery as an adjunct to his daily meals, it
will give the digestive organs power to
take hold of the food and extract from it
the elements which strengthen the vital
organism and build up healthy blood.
1t revitalizes every organ and tissue OF
the body purges bilious poisons out Of
the circulation invigorates the nerve cen.
tiers and the muscular system and makes
a man altogether man-full of ambition,
energy and pluck.
Mr.. Jos, Henderson Dirblun. Of s44 Josephine
Street, New orleans, La, writes to DR.. Pierce
II was ailing for some years, suffering from
appetite I tried one bottle. Of DR.. Pierce $
Golden Medical Discovery and found great re
lief I took two more bottles. three in all. and
one or two bottles of the Pellets when
found myself in good health again. I recon-
mend DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery to
do all that it is claimed to do"
In many cases where constipation is one
of the aggravating causes of disease, DR..
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets should be used in
conjunction with the Discovery" They
are the simplest and most perfectly natural
laxative ever invented.
It is dealers business to sell you what
YOU ask for-not what he prefers for selfish
profits sake to sell.

THE REAL POLITICAL
SITUATION.

Now that the battle is over let
us see how we stand in Washing
ton.
The fusion party still has the
governorship and all state offices
and that too, for another two years.
The fusionists still have the senate
of the state legislature. and will
have for two years more.
The fusionists still have ma
jority of the offices in King county
including all the courts, pro,ocut-
ing attorney, auditor, treasurer,
clerk and superintendent of public
schools-and this proposition is
largely true of the principal
counties of the state.
The goldbugs have the house of
the legislature, and can elect a
United States senator ON Joint bal
lot. But the house cannot make a
law without the aid of the senate.
nor can both houses enact into law
any bill except by approval OF the
governor.
Under such circumstances, where
does the greatest advantage lie
with the fusionists or the republic
cans?
The Ellensburg dawn. [volume] (Ellensburg, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1898-11-18

Fusion is dead. THE DAWN
never submitted to fusion until the
people composing the factions said
it was the thing. We have seen
fusion in half dozen campaigns,
and the result has invariably been
only one thing-confusion. What
we need in this country is new
party made up of the reformers of
