Boss Thoman Elects himself Chair
man and then Talks to his Ao-
uniYfnR Audience


last week was the speech by Chief
Boss Thoman, who as chairman OF
the committee on organization bad
Just modestly named himself perma
nent chairman OF the convention. He
thought the delegates needed some
instruction from him as to the "new
principles" OF democracy, so placing
his hands in his pockets tthe pockets
which also hold the Prowers county
democratic party he came forward,
opened his mouth and spoke,
He first started in to tell what the
democrats did not have, but this task
wss too great for even his lung power
so he soon gave it up, Next he grew
eloquent over the fact that Prowers
county democrats needed no outside
help TO manage their affairs, as he
is amply able TO do that himself, but
here he happened to remember thst
the populists had just seooped all the
best offices in the fusion deal, so he
hesitated. stammered a little aud
changed the subject He warmed up
now and exclaimed, ''We don't need
to send 10 Denver for orators, as we
have good enough at home" He
paused here to give the delegates 8
chance TO applaud and listen to the
yells of "Thomsni Thomans' But
they failed to catch the hint he had
tipped OF to them, 50 the silence
was very painful
Then Mr.. Thoman turned sarcas-
tical and dwelt upan the terrible evils
of having federal officials run a party
and on this point be is certainly a
very competent judge. The delegates
drank it in soberiy never seeming 10
realize thst this same speaker, who
has been the Prowers county demo
cratic party for six years, was the OF.
fetal representative of the Cleveland
goldbug administration The secre.
sars, though, turned red in the face
as IL he remembered the humiliating
day two years ago, when this same
federal official arose 10 the convention
and gave preenptory orders to the
said secretary. who was then the
chairman of the county committee.

others. He had been assured by the
editor of the Sparks that Senator

formed his friends that IL he ever, BY
mischance, did anything that would
meet the approval of the demagogues
who manage the fusion forces in this
state he would die from sheer disgust. j
He next tackled the war, which he
said the democrats forced on the ad.
ministration, and be declared il was
one of the most unjust in history. He
grew very pathetic over the twenty
million dollars, which the admins
trstion paid for islands worth half
billion. This money he wanted left
in the treasury, so that If the people
ever forgot the rascality of Cleve-
lands administration and trusted the
party again, they would have this
twenty millions to distribute among
the faithful. Here he removed his
hsnds from his pockets and let ont
some of the democracy, and the first
enthusiasm of the convention was

room cried, Il can get in thirty five

What May Happen.
Weak Kidneys Caused by OyerWOk, by Lifting Or
a Strain.
a Strain.

We do not always know tho con.
slant danger that corfronts Us
through all the daily walks of life
1t may be an accident or sudden i'll
ness; or perhaps, n disease that has
been stealing upon us from day to
day.
1t used to be considered that only
urinary troubles were to be traced to
the kidneys, but now modern science
proves that nearly all diseases have
their beginning in the disorder OF
these most important organs.
Now by this is not meant that you
should overlook all the other organs
and merely look after the kidneys.
Your other organs nay need at
tention-but your kidneys most, be-
cause they do most.
If you are sick do not neglect your
kidneys, because as soon as they are
we'll, they will help all the other or
gans to health.
The kidneys may get weak or dis
eased from thousand and one
causes; from overwOrk, worry "a SIM
pie cold, from lifting, a strain, or ex-
cess in high living.
Others may suffer from diabetes,
dropsy, swelling of the feet and an
kles, rheumatism, bad blood, gout,
gravel, catarrh of bladder, sleepless-
ness, anaemia, nervousness, head
ache or neuralgia.
All these symptoms are due to
kidney trouble, and the most prompt
and effectual cure is DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney rem
edy.
In taking Swamp-Root you afford
