(From the Times, Hillstille, Va.)
I suffered with diarrhoea for a long
time, and thought I was past being
cured. I had spent much time and
money and suffered so much misery
that I had almost decided to give up all
hopes of recovery and await the result,
but noticing the advertisement of
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy and also some testimo-
malls stating how some wonderful cures
had been wrought by this remedy, I de-
cided to try it. After taking a few doses
I was entirely we'll of that trouble, and
I wish to say further to my readers and
fe~llow-sufferers that I am a hale and
hearty man to-day, and feel as well as
/ ever did in my life.-O. r. Moore.

Seeing With Our Feelings.

A physician makes the statement that
we see with our feelings. Thereis more
truth in this than the thoughtless will
perceive. For instance, take a man or
woman with a weak stomach, which has
not the power of giving to the blood the
nourishment it requires. The system is
Tiled with poisonous bile. Poor blood
coursing through the brain poisons and
weakens it, and the sufferer is utterly
incapable of enjoying beauty of any sort,
or even a hearty meal. The reason the
bilious and the d~yspeptic who takes
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters finds life
brighter and ~pleasanter, is because it
cleanses the system and strengthens the
stomach. See that a private Revenue
lamp covers the top of the bottle.

Explaining the Case.

/ don't seem to understand this Drey-
fus case, said the caller.
Oh, it's very simple, returned the
hostess. You see, it's all about a
bordereau.
Yes.
And bordereau; as you can readily see
by its resemblance to the English word
border, is French for trimming of some
sort-presumably lace.
Why, of curse. How stupid of me
never to have thought of that before.
And poor Dreyfus, l suppose, has been
sued by some tradesman for the bor-
dereau his wife bought.
Exactly, said the hostess. Very likely
he o~vercharged for it, you know.-Chi-

The assassination of the president
of San Domingo has left things there
in something of a turmoil and revo-
luton is iminent. The authorities at
Washington have sent couple Of war
vessels there to look after American
interests. The fact that a revolution
is nearly always due there with a
change Of rulers, has led those having
property interests there to favor an
nexation to the United States, and
the death Of the late president there
has again brought such an agitation
to the surface. The bringing Of set
tied conditions which American rule
is bringing In Porto Rico and Cuba,
will have the effect to cause strong
sentiment in favor of annexation to
flourish in San Domingo, and the re-
suit will doubtless be its ultimate an
nexation to this country.

MORE RIGHT OF WAY.
Mankato Electric Street Railway Co.
Changes Its Route.

The county board met Monday
to open bids for number of improve.
ments and transact general business.
General Counsel A. E. Clark and
Secretary S. Wilhartz, Of the Mankato
Electric Street Railway, Lighting and
Power company, appeared before the
board and asked for a right of way for
the electric line over the Thompson
creek road from the city limits to sec
ton nine, Mankato township, and on
the county road on the line between
Waseca and Blue Earth counties south
of Cream, subject to all of the condi-
lions of the right of way already grant
ed. The object of the request for
right of way on the Thompson creek
road is obtain an easier grade than can
be had on the Guenthur hill. 1t is in
tended to purchase right of way in Sec
ton nine south to Eagle. Lake road.
The right of way to Cream is desired
for the reason that the company has
been strongly urged to extend it's line
line there and it has not decided
whether to do that or to continue on to
Alma City and New Richland, as in
tended.

In his selection of a man for the posi-
ton of secretary of war to succeed Mr..
Alger, President Mckinley seems to
have made good selection in Elihue
Root He is and able and successful
lawyer, and as it is understood that the
president wished an able lawyer at the
head of the department, to dispose of
legal questions which will arise there
during the next few years in the estab-
fishing of government in our new pos
sessions, he has seemingly chosen well.
This move would indicate that Gen.
Miles will be more freely consulted in
the future than he has been in the past.
It is to be hoped that the president will
not be disappointed in the new secre-
tary, but that he will prove to be large
enough for the place, and able to take
comprehensive view of the great
questions which will constantly come
before the war department by reason of
our new relations.

The cool weather of the past three
or four days has been most beneficial
for wheat and has greatly improved
It's condition from what was feared it
would be week ago. While many
fields are reported damaged more or
less, the damage from blight was ar
rested, and the condition of the fields
in general improved. The Pioneer
Press in commenting upon the reports
received throughout the northwest of
crop conditions for the past week,
says wheat will be much better than
expected a week ago, and that barley
and fax will undoubtedly beta very
large yield, and the aggregate Of small
grain in the northwest probably ex-
coed in bushels the yield Of any pre-
vious year. While wheat is little
shy, oats, barley, fax and rye are first
class. Potaotes promise an unusual
yield. The condition of soil and
weather has been peculiarly beneficial
to potatoes. Corn has made rapid
growth during the past two weeks,
and Southern Minnesota, Iowa and
Nebraska and portions Of South Da-
kota will have big crop.

A GOOD SHOWING.

While Mr.. Bryan and his followers
were sure in 1896 that the success of
the gold standard would result in a
contraction of the currency, there has
been constantly expanding volume
of it, The Fergus Falls Journal notes
the following increase in the deposits
held by the national banks of Mime
sofa outside of the reserve cities, for the
past year, and it is more than probable
that the most of this has come from
small depositers, farmers, clerks, labor
ers. etc, 1t will also be noted that this
takes only the national banks. No note
as taken of the state and private banks:
There has been an increase of more
than 100000, in the individual de-
posits held by the national banks Of
Minnesota outside of the reserve cities
of ST. Paul and Minneapolis during
the past year. In July, 1898, the
banks held, as individual deposits,
$40, ISL, 0S7. According to the state
ment made by these banks to the con-
troller of the currency at the close of
business on June 80, they now hold 3d.
996, $50, nearly double their holdings Of
year ago. The loans and discounts
have also decreased nearly 100000
and are now quoted at SIC, 991, 1866. The
banks have contributed to the circulat-
ing medium an increase of about $780,
900 in national notes. their present
issues aggregating $1,240, 372, all of
which is outstanding except 424207.
Their specie holdings aggregate 81, 49,

Well, Bro. Day, what of it, aren't you
mighty glad it is SO? 1t is only about
three or four years since things were so
cheap no one earned anything but a
bare living and could not buy. Now
everything manufactured is really sold
before it is made. factories run over
time, wages out of sight, everyone try
ing to buy, which creates demand and
consequently prices go up. Don't be
foolish, Bro. Day, we have had our era
of cheap things and it came from the
antics of very cheap party, and now
just get into line and let us continue
this glorious old high price party in
power-Jackson Republic.
And when things were cheap the SEN

It is not surprising that Mr.. Barnes,
the manager of the so-called Co-Opera.
tive Premium association, should come
back at the Free Press for calling atten-
ton to the fact that the purchaser of
goods who accepts premium stamps is
paying good round figure for very
inexpensive article when he presents
his little stamps to Manager Barnes for
redemption. 1t is nonsense for people
to believe, or for Mr., Barnes to pretend.
that the merchants in Mankato who
handle his stamps are giving away over
$4,000 year to their customers for his
benefit. The buying public must
necessarily pay a good share of this
amount if not the whole of it, and some
of the good people are getting acquaint-
ed with this fact. There may be Go
operative" link in this stamp business
between Mr.. Barnes and the people
from whom he purchases his wares,
but there certainly is none between the
consumer of merchandise and the mer-
chant. Not any. Mr.. Barnes will be
excused for the erroneous statement
that the family of the writer receiv-
ed some of the goods. His mistake, for
we are willing to call it by no harsher
name, is likely one common to his pc
culiar business ideas of who pays the
freight" 1t makes no difference to Mr.
Barnes who puts up so long as he is
the beneficiary of the gullibility of

rage"
In his first white heat it is asserted
the governor will remove Gen. Becker
for neglect of duty, political duty but
the Free Press is of the opinion that on
a second sober thought Gov. Lind will
not monkey with the political buzz saw
in that respect. To remove Gen. Becker
would be to stir up the worst hornets
nest he has struck yet in his official life,
and he will doubtless allow the General
to serve out his term,
Mr.. Clausen is one of the best grain
men in the northwest, and was first Sc
lected because of his reputation as such.
Gen. Baker, of this city. who was a
member of the commission when Mr..
Clausen was first appointed, made the
inquiries, by request of the balance of
the commission, among the grain men
of the northwest for suitable man, and
says that rs per cent of the replies he
received favored Mr.. Clausen, and in
his administration of his Office he has
maintained that reputation But that
makes little difference with the present
administration. After forty years of
hunger, it is spoils it is after, and
politics cut more figure with it than a

sequent benefit to the farmers of the
