\ Paris letter gives the alleged in
side history OF the movement for the
release OF DreNfus and reveals the
secret power which caused the French
government TO undertake this act Of
justice. 1t was nothing lees than the
great Jewish banking houses and
capitalists threatening the credit Of
France IL the prosecution was con.in-
7 ued.
1t is said that the Jewish capital
lists had learned their power two de.
cades ago, when they compelled
Rush to hold her hand aud stop the
anti-Semit:c crusade then raging
there. Russian securities fell "a points
in Il days and the Gear was notified
that IL he touched another Of the He
brew people nothing would save his
government from bankruptcy. The
persecution ceased at once by imper.
isl edict.
1t is stated that on the first day OF
March last a dozen prominent Jews
met IN London. They controlled
among them more than $1,000, COO, 900
IN ready money. The situation had
been canvased throughout Europe
and it had been concluded that the
persecution OF Dreyfus was the be-
ginning OF a crusade having for its
object the striking down OF all promi-
nent people OF the Hebrew race ev.
erywhere and RELOCATING the whole
race to the pariah class from which
they emerged centuries ago through
tue force OF their splendid genius and
energy.
\ plan Of campaign WIS mapped
out. 1t was decided to attack the
credit OF France and to notify tie
rulers that IL justice were not dUre to
Dreyfus and the Jcw-baiting stopped
something very serious would happen
Very soon the French rcntes began to
tumble III the market. At first il was
thought to be merely a speculative
movement, and that prices would raj.
~, but they did not. Presently the
peasants who own a large percentage
OF the enormous debt OF France, be-
gan to be alarmed and ask what WAS
the matter. Some Of them threaten
ed to upset the government and there
was danger Of bankruptcy and revo-
luton. The authorities took tue hint
and the day the Dreyfus rehearing
was ordered the drop in French rentes
ceas ii.
Whether this story Is true or not
it is certain that the great Jewish
banking houses Of Europe hold in
their hands the power to bankrupt
any European government, with pos
sibly the exception of that Of Great
Britain. because the credit Of such
governments is stretched to a point
OF great tcEuity, and il such houses
ms the ltOthschilds. the GnlGschmidts
and the Ephrussls of Odessa should
shut down III them they wOnld not
DO able to borrow any mora money
OF 10 pay interests on .heir ubliga-
tIo"s. The Paris story may he true.

Mining two Miles Deep.

At the recent conference Of the in
sutton OF OF civil engineers in Lon
don, Johc Hays Hammond read a
paper on deep mining in which he ex-
pressed an opinion that mining n
be done at Il depth Of 10000 feet with
preesn: appliances and that this limit
can be extended much further with
probable improvements in machinery.
The difficulty in hosting from the
great depths Mr.. Hammond proposes
to meet 10y breaking the lift-hoist-
ing through one shaft to d 5000-foot
level and then transfer the load to
another cage. The increase OF tenn
perature with the depth is not an in
superable difficulty by any means. In
short the exteation OF mines to
de 2ths far beyond any yet known is
quite within the power Of the engi-
neer, the only question to lie consid-
cred is, will 1t pay!

Fined for Sot Caring a Toothaehe.

An advertiser has to stick to the
truth in South America said the
representative OF Ii large shipping
Il know that seems incred-
ible, but it's absolutely true. Some
years ago a dealer in New Orleans
sent an assorted lot Of patent medi-
cines to an American agent at San!
tiago, Chill. Among the stuff was a
lot OF tOothachc drops, which were
warranted on the bottle To- cure the
worst case Of toothache in ten min.
utes. Here nobody would take such
an assertion seriously, but down there
it's different. fhe first man who
bought q bottle made HD immediate
application, and then pulled out his
watch. When ten minutes elapsed
aud the tooth calmly continued to
ache lie was ~furious and at oncc had
the agent arrested. The poor fellow
was fined $1,000 and sentenced to
three months in Jail. Through the
efforts OF the American Consul the
imprisonment was knocked Off, bat
lie had to pay the fine, and it broke
him up i'll business. That story is
absolutely true. rs can be testified TO
by a dozen people u in the city.

throughout the country. Years ago
Dan Rice and his ten clowns Demon
strated how twenty dollars of debt can
be liquidated by single dollar. Just
as soon as the administration gave as
surance that the honor OF our currency
should be held inviolate, capital again
resumed it's wonted uses and prosper
ity was again with US.
Now we come to this bugbear of the
trusts. There are trusts in this coun-
try that should be regulated by law.
There are trusts that are encroaching
upon the rights and liberties of the
people. These | say should be dealt
with in the manner prescribed in the
platform of the Republican party. But
great combinations of capital are not
necessarily detrimental or harmful. It
requires such aggregations OF wealth
and power to invade the markets Of the
world, and for this purpose they should
be fostered and commended
Bryan is already his party's nomi-
nee for President on the same old plat
form OF 16 to /. If the world was as
sured of the success of the Democratic
party upon that platform, it would
commence at once and you would al
ready begin to feel the paralysis which
would certainly result The Republi-
can party shall prevail. Every dollar
shall be as good as every other dollar
and our money shall go around the
world as the flag goes round, respected
and honored by the nations OF the
world"
You are expected to stand by these
principles Of protection and honest mon
ey this year as you did in g. Do not
be carried away with this appeal to
your prejudices. If you do not get
your share of the wealth of the country
now, your opportunity to do so will be
curtailed under less favorable condi-
tions. The price Of the dinner bucket
is not so essential when there is amp
lie and plenty to fill it.
"The war with Spain was not war
of conquest We did not seek foot

a fortune of war and Congress in its
own good time and manner will deter
mine what disposition is to be made OF

every vote cast in Ohio is to say
whether you approve of this war with
Spain. Having taken Manila, some say
Dewey should have sailed away. Had
such a course been pursued, our navy
would have been held in contempt by
the world, and Manila city would have
been laid helpless to plumber, murder
and rapine. Without Manila, Spain
would never have made concessions in
the Paris treaty. We did not go to
Manila for conquest but the flag once
raised in honor will never be taken
down in dishonor."

HEART DISEASE.



Heart trouble, at least among the
Americans, are certainly increasing
and while this largely may be due
to the excitement and worry of
American business life, it is more
often the result Of weak stomachs,
of poor digestion.
Real organic disease is incurable;
but not one case in hundred OF
heart trouble is organic.
The close relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion is be-
cause both organs are controlled
by the same great nerves, the SYM
pathetic and Pneumogastric.
In another way, also the heart is
affected by the form Of poor diges-
ton, which causes gas fermenta-
ton from half digested food. There
is feeling of oppression and heav-
mess in the chest caused by pres
sure Of the distended stomach on
the heart and lungs, interfering
with their action; hence arises pal
pitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the
blood, making it thin and watery,
which irritates and weakens the
heart.
The most sensible treatment for
heart trouble is to improve the di-
gestion and to insure the prompt
assimilation of food.
This can be done by the regular
use after meals of some safe. pleas
ant and effective digestive prepar-
alton, like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets, which may be found at most
drug stores, and which contain
valuable harmless digestive ele-
ments in a pleasant, convenient
form.
II is safe to say that the regular
persistent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at meal time will cure any
form of stomach trouble except can
Ger of the stomach.
Full sized packages of these tab
lets sold by druggists at 80 cents.
