the wor.. of demon within man. Any
one who has had an attack of sciatic or iu-

ioaiction is demoniac enough to warrant tie
belief. 1t has never been claimed that Cham.

Story OF a Slave.

To be bound hand and foot for years by the
chains of disease is the worst form of slavery
George D. Williams, of Manchester, Mich,
tells how such a slave was made free. He
says: .My wife has been so helpless for five
years that shs could not turn over in bed alone.
After using two bottles of Electric Bitters, she
is wonderfully improved and able to do her
own work." This supreme remedy for female
diseases quickly cures nervousness, sleep!ess-
ness, melancholy, headache, backache. fainting
and dizzy spells. This miracle working med.
cine is godsend to weak. sickly, run down
people. Every bottle guaranteed. Oaly SOC.

in this line of the referred to for con-
trlbutions to their libelous organs.
Brown, who polled only l19 votes out of
TOO in Yuma county for county Judge;
who has been In contempt of nearly
every court before which he has sought
to practice and at one time disbarred
for malpractice from practicing at all.
Hays, who has gone to sleep in every
court from the supreme court down;
who idles away his time in court by
reading newspapers and otherwise
while special counsel at the expense
Of interested parties and the people
perform his duties for him In all i'm
portant cases; whose official work has
consisted principally Of dismissals and
acquittals at SIS each and more; who
permits intemperance to run riot in
the district; who favors calling a grand
jury, regardless Of expense, for lack Of
moral stamina to perform the same
eutiss himself; who is always behind
at court and totally deficient In every
quality requisite to even a passable
prosecutor. These are the chief ma
ligners of Judge Armour. Will such
accusers deceive the people? No.
They already stand impeached before
the people and will b. rsbuked for
their calumnies by the overwhelming
defeat OF the nan In whose interest
they perpetrdte them. Judge Armour
will be elected.
The Grit-advocate., 1900-11-02
Proper Way to Vote.

BY reading the instructions at the
head of the certified list of nominal
tions, which appears upon the inner
pages Of this issue, voters will have no
difficulty in preparing their ballots
next Tuesday. These instructions are
plain and no voter need make a mis-
take in preparing his ballot after he
enters the voting booth. The indica-
tions now are that there will be a
large number Of straight tickets voted.
In voting a straight ticket the possi-
bility Of making mistake in marking
the ballot is eliminated. All that is
necessary is for the voter to write in
the blank space at the head of the
ballot the name Of the party for which
he wants to vote. On the ballot will
be found but one republican ticket,
while there are several fusion tickets,
all Of which are supposed to be voted
in the interest Of Bryan. In voting a
straight republican ticket-and that
is the kind of ticket every person who
desires the overthrow Of Bryan and
his calamity howlers should vote
simply write the word "republican"
at the head Of the ticket, fold it and
hand it to the polling clerks. Then
your ballot will be counted for the en-
tire republican ticket from president
down to precinct constable, and you
will have the satisfaction OF knowing
that you have had hand in keeping
In power the party of progress and
right principles.
The Grit-advocate., 1900-11-02

The fusion newspapers in the 18th
judicial district have been making
frantic efforts since the campaign be-
gan to defeat the reelection Of Judge
Armour. They have attempted to be-
smirch his public life and have even
stopped to dirty attacks upon his pri-
vate life These papers have realized
from the start that their cause was q
losing one, and hence they have re-
sorted to the most despicable methods
In vain effort to stem the tide which
is surely bearing Judge Armour to-
wards reelection. The puerile at
lacks Of these interruptions organs
have availed but little. Afterwards
they have proven to be boomerangs
which did more harm to their own
candidates than to the republican can
didates. Judge Armour is superior to
all such petty ISLANDERS as the fusion
lists oave promulgated. His record is
known to every voter in the district,
and by every one of them it is known
to be clean one. This record will be
endorsed by the voters next Tuesday
and the judge will be reelected by a
handsome majority.
