The Great Presidential Campaign of
1900.

The policies of the great political
parties are now being formed and the
candidates discussed. The voice of
the people as recorded by ballot at the
approaching Presidential election will
probably decide the policy of the ma
ton for the next decade. Every citi-
zen must study the great questions that
are to come before the people. This
can only be done through the medium
of a great newspaper. Now is the
time, therefore, for every voter to sub
scribe for the best and most reliable
newspaper obtainable. The Semi
Weekly Republic covers the whole field
of political news. While il is Demo
cratic. it publishes the news in regard
to all political parties without preju-
dice. Its Geographic and cable news
service is superior to that of any other
paper. Its special features are the
best. In fact, it is the paper for that
large class of readers who cannot af-
ford or do not have access to the daily
papers.
Attention Is also called to The Re-
pubtic's Sunday Magazine. Its half
tone illustrations are alone worth the
subscription price. 1t is made up of
special articles by the best literary
talent, embracing a variety of subjects
of current interest. News features of
absorbing interest are illustrated and
enlarged upon. For the benefit of the
ladies the latest fashions are hand
somely illustrated. The Republic Sun
every member of the family.
The subscription price of the Semi
Weekly Republic is $1.00 per year.
The Republic Sunday Magazine 81 %
per year. Both papers are now being
offered at the very low price of $1.50
for one year. To secure this low rate
both must be ordered and paid for at
the same time.

No ONE will question John B. Hen
derson's Republicanism. Following is
his opinion about the war in the Phil
ippines:
Congress alone is authorized to de-
clare war under the Constitution. Con-
gress did declare one war, but that
was against Spain. The war has long
since been closed by treaty of peace.
A war declared by nobody. but by far
greater in its proportions than the
Spanish war, still goes on in its re-
lentless career of blood and ruin. A
whole nation of innocent people is be-
ing slaughtered, seemingly because
their total destruction is necessary to
the enjoyment of their possessions
possessions whose occupancy by Amer
leans is absolutely forbidden by ma
lures God.

have been punished by being obliged
to stand for eight hours immovable in

straw has been taken from their hunks
and they have been compelled to sleep
on the bare boards. No tobacco is
permitted and no visitors are allowed
to speak to the prisoners. tits alleged

THE Calumet Banner, published in
Pike county; says one Prof. Jennings
of St. Francois county could have had
the Democratic nomination for Con-
gress in this district in 1896 merely
for the asking. This statement is ri
diculous and absurd. We don't sup
pose that one in ten of the voters in
the district to-day know there in such
a man as Jennings in existence. If the
Banner has any desire for reputation
for accuracy it should be more careful
in what it says.

No fair-miuded person at this day
but will admit that the war with Mex
leo was an unjust and an unholy war
the result of greed for land and do
minlon. Mexico was weak and poor;
the United States rich and powerful.
But the wrong we did to others recoiled
upon ourselves, and the bloody civil
war was indirectly the result of that
wrong. The quarrel upon the slavery
question had been quieted by the Mis-
souri, Compromise act, and in all pro-
liability had the land we stole from
our sister Republic never come into
our possession the emancipation of the
slaves and the abolition of slavery
would have been accomplished in
peaceable manner. But the quarrel
was renewed more fiercely than ever
over the newly acquired territory-as
to whether any or all of it should be
slave or free-aud we all know what
followed. The REGISTER holds that
nation is no more than an individual
free from the retribution which follows
wrong-doing; that "the God who
reigued in Babylon is the God who is
reigning yet" Sometime our children
or our children's children will pay in
blood and tears for the wrongs this
nation is now infiicting upon a people
who never harmed US and with whom
we have in nature nothing In common.
The misery of it all is that the MUIR
derers aud scoundrels who are urging
the nation to the wrong will not have
personally to pay the entire debt the
God of humanity is sure to adjudge
against their people.

many woman permits diseases of the

some physicians find necessary. Doubt
