The morning paper which attacks
the speech of John r. Sovereign at the
Labor day picnic because it bristled
with arguments against the republ
can party. and criticises the commit
tee in charge of the exercises for per-
uniting what it terms a political ad-
dress at labor picnic. has no objec-
ton to the committee advertising
Yates with half-page cut in it's pro-
gram of the day. The only point of
difference in the two incidents seems
TO have been that one had q tendency
TO boom in an advertising way a
chronic republican politician, the
other the expression of a fair minded
man who could not tTuthfully discuss
the questions that confront the labor
ing man without rejecting on the re-
publican party.

Truth Is Mighty Though 1t Hurt.

The Union affects much surprise
thst the speech of John r. Sovereign
delivered at the tri-city Labor day
picnic at Moline yesterday should
have rung with democratic logic and
have voiced in large measure the sent
iments of the democratic party on the
vital issues of the present campaign
To the student of current history the
coincidence Is not at all surprising.
The democrats and laboring men re-
gard less of politics. are working to-
gether in the present campaign
against the two giant menaoes 10 the
repub bile and to labor, imperialism and
the trusts. Both these evils
having been fostered. and now being
upheld by the republican party, the
sensitiveness of republican papers.
such as the Union. perhaps. is not so
amazing. MIR. Sovereign is typical
representative of organised labor, at
the head of whose greatest organiza-
ton he has stood for years, and un-
like his immediate predecessor, I. v.
Powderly. who sold out his influence
to Mark Hanna aud got his pay at the
close Of the campaign of four years
ago. Sovereign still holds his place in
the hearts of the laboring men all
over the land.

schurz Corrects Gage.

Four years ago the republicans were
quoting Carl Schurz under every pos
sible pretense and on every posi- BILE
occasion. and referring to him as the
model of American statesmen, and
a ove all man whose views and the
cries, as well as convictions of finance,
might be accepted. and in whose judg-
ment public confidence might safely
repose. These recollections of the
former national, campaign are quite
natural now that MIR. Schurz has writ
ten an open letter to McKinley's Sec
rotary of the treasury, Lyman j.
Gage, taking serious issue with that
official on his present position. In
this letter Mr.. Schurz calls upon the
secretary to retract his reported inter
view of Aug. 20, in which Mr.. Gage
seeks to alarm business interests by
suggesting that William j. Bryan, IL
elected. could direct his secretary of
the treasury to pay off in silver all
government obligations payable in
coin" Mr.. Schurz practically
charges Secretary Gage with having
given out his interview for political
purpose under cloak of protecting
creditors of the government. Mr..
Schurz points out il was the avowed
intention of the last congress to adopt
q currency measure which would put
the country upon an impregnable gold
basis, and that if loophole were left
in the adopted bill which empowered
the executive to redeem with silver
government obligations made payable
in coin it doubtless was for the pur-
pose of furnishing the repu blicau
party an opportunity to play on silver
without subjecting the gold standard
to any real danger.
Mr.. Schurz adds that if it were not
the purpose to leave the executive IN
fettered 1.-The spreading of false
alarms of this kind is very ques-
tionable and reprehensible thing and
especially for a secretary of the treas
urv."
Finally Mr. SChurz informs the sec
rotary OF the treasury that if the dan
ger the latter indicates really exists
it is still il the power of the present
congress, which is overwhelmingly
republican, to amend the currency
laws so as TO make it impossible for
the executive TO discriminate be-
tween the two metals in the redemp-
ton of government obligations. Mr..
Schurz throws down the gauntlet to
his open correspondent and courts a
defense to Mr.. Cages tocsin of alarm.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

By local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portions of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused By an
infianed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the eu=tachian tube. When
this tube gets inflaned you have a
rum bling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed deafness
is the result, and unless the inflamms-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to it's normal condition hear
ing will he destroyed forever; nine
cases out of 10 are caused by catarrh,

We Judge from all newspaper ac-

Jennings Bryan might be called a
good home man. Yet the fact has
never been published that William
Mckinley ever murdered any of his
ancestors" Trle. Emperor Mchin-
ley slaughtered none of his ancestors;
at least history does not show that
such is the case; bGt here is an awful
