Great credit has been giver to the
Allied Generals in China for prompt

of American citizens dragged down

longs to the prompt action of Dan

and most satisfactory general system
tonic ever made.
Indigestion, Liver and Kidney trou.
bles, low malarial fevors, dizziness,

which require an immediate tonine

BRYAN was in Indiana yesterday,
aud today he will speak in Chicago.
A feature Of. his appearance there
is the fact that his place of speak
ing has been changed through the
action of one Montgomery Ward
q prominent republican. Several
months ago Ward secured per-
petual injunction against using the
lake front for any purpose except
as park or driveway. For
month now a republican pros
perity wagon has been kept on
the lake front as a permanent
place for holding republican meet
ings, and no objection was made
by democrats and the injunction
was not invoked to prevent it.
The democrats therefore secured
a city license and erected monster
tent on the lake front for the
Bryan meeting tomorrow night
Ward thereupon went to the city
authorities, called their attention
to the forgotten injunction and
demanded that the tent license be
revoked on penalty Of contempt OF
court. The license had to be re-
voked, and Bryan will therefore
speak from a platform in the open
air. It seems that nothing is toe
mean for republicans to resort to
annoy the democratic candidate.

Chicago. Nov, Speaking OF
the daily mobbing, of Roosevelt.
Chairman Jones of the National
democratic committee said: What
ever violence and rnffianism has
developed in the campaign are
directly chargeable to the repubii-
can vice presidential candidate.
The men in buekram or kahki-
imitation soldiers; the mock
heroes who have been uniformed
in imitation Of Roosevelt. and
who do not carry their liquormeek'
ly after dark; who have been
crowding people off the sidewalks
and terrorizing country towns. are
the men who set the example fol
rowdyism. Roosevelt's undignified
language and manner set a pace
for his kahki followers, and ii ht
has himself been made a victim oi
it, he is himself chiefly to blame. :

ing Claims I'm Comanche Country.
Oklahoma City, Okla. Nov. 81.
People are docking to the borders
Of the Kiowa and Comanche coun-
try, there to spend a winter on the
cold, bleak prairies. with no hope
of any employment and no pros
poets Of making a living. They
all know that the country cannot
be thrown open to settlement be-
fore next spring, and the probabil-
tiles are that it will not then be
thrown open. There is case now
before the supreme court of the
United States involving the title to
the land in question. A decision
has been expected every Monday.
and many people believe the decis-
ion has really been rendered.
The belief is growing that the
decision will be in favor of the
Indians, and If this should prove
j to be the case, new treaty wifi
/ have to be made or the United
States will have to buy the land
from the Indians before it can be
thrown open to white settlement
4 More than a week ago telegram
from Washington announced thai
the supreme court had reached
decision and then proceeded to tel
what the decision would "proba
bly," be, and this forecast has beer
accepted by many as coming from
the court itself.
The case before the court claims
that the land in controversy wa
ceded to the United States in trus
for the Wichita and affiliated band
of Indians; that these Indians hat
only a possessive title; that tn
, Choctaws and Chickasaws neve
, have parted with the legal title. I
is claimed that the moment tn
, United States attempts to sell o
! give away the land, or do anythinl
with it except to hold it in trus
for the specific purpose mentioned
that moment the title reverts bac
to the original owners-the ChoC
taws and Chickasaws.
People had better stay ava

). spring, for those who are in a pc
: sition to know say that it can nc
d be opened before April; that cal

not expire till March 81. By ths

Another Smallpox Case.

Ed. Eldridge, a well known printer,
walked about Davenport Monday
while he was broken out with small
pox and there is no means of know
ing how many persons were exposed
to the disease through his being in
such condition. The discovery that
Eldridge was suffering from the loath-
some and dangerous complaint was
made by leading physician. into
whose Office the printer walked yes
terday, with the statement that he
did not feel well. The physician at
once noted postules on Eldridge's
face and felt quite certain that the
man had smallpox. DR.. Preston was
called up by telephone and on his ar
rival a little later agreed with the
physicians diagnosis. The patrol
wagon, in its capacity as an ambu-
lance, was called at once and the
printer was hurried to the pest house.

GEN. BARNARD SEEING LAST DAYS
Successor i'm Course OF Con.

lets.

The well known rafting steamer
Ten Brock, so familiar a sight to
rivermen along the upper Mississippi,
has been sold by her owner, S. r. Van
SAINT. to Capt. John Mccartney. of
Davenport. A peculiar fact in COM
nection with the sale of the we'll
known steamer is that she was orig
inally the property, when new, of
Capt. Mccartney, he having built her
in 1888, and some ten years ago was
sold by him to. S. r. Van SAINT.
The Gen. Barnard, the decayed old
government steamer, is lying at the
Rock Island shore, having finished her
spring work along the upper river. She
has been faithful employee of Uncle
Sam and has done lot of good work on
the river for the past ten years. She
is now about to go out of com mission
and will be replaced by a fine new
steamer now under construction.
The Barnard will probably continue
TO do government work for the re-
mainder of the season and will then
be broken up, the new boat taking her
place next spring. The name of the
new vessel has not yet been decided
upon, but it will probably take the
name of the old boat, the Gen
Barnard.
The steamer A. j. Whitney passed
down Monday to Muscatine from
Prairie du CHEN with a cargo of
clans. While here Capt. Wild pres
ented his friend E. w. Baker with a
pair of clam shells, the largest, he
said. he ever saw taken from the
river.
