says, letters from a hun.
dred or more democratic bus
mess rnen in all sections OF
our State, asking for a con-
ference with me in the near
future. They want to coop
crate with me as to the best
means for getting out a full
vote for Mckinley. They
not only want that vote poll
ed, but want it counted
There are two points in
this utterance that will strike
the reader:
1. More than a hundred
business men want q confer
ence with Senator Prltchard
beca use they favor the elec.
ton of Mckinley. The Sen
ator says "nearly all of them
are Democrats" II Senator
Pritchard will print their
names he will disclose the
fact that every one Of them
voted for Mckinley in 1896
or gave moral support to
Mckinley. They are, there
fore Republicans. For every

ed who will vote for McKin-

This is only a small percentage of the

from an unbalanced nervous system
caused by the persistent daily use of the
drug caffeine, which is the active princi-

evidence about coffee is that the victims
