The thoughtful voter will distin-
guish between the transient and the
permanent differences between tho
Republican aud Democratic parties.
Each campaign brings to the front
some temporary questions of expedi-
ency, which are Intended to blind the
eyes of the thoughtless and attract
the floating vote.
'"rippecanoe and Tyler too" won
more votes than logical arguments
aFifty-four fortv or fight" aroused
the whole country and not a few
would have preferred the fight to
the fifty-four forty. And 16-to-1
drives sound money Democrats into
the Republican party, and silver Re-
publicans into Democratic ranks.
However, back of all these cam
paign cries, deeper than the money
question, more important than the
subject of imperialism, more vital to
the future welfare of the nation than
militarism, is the radical difference

Starvation never vet cured dyspep-
sia. Persons with indigestion are al
ready half starved. They need plenty
Of wholesome food. Kodol Dyspep.

body can be nourisbed while the
worn out organs are being recon-
structed. 1t is the only preparation
known that will instantly relieve and
completely cure all stomach troubles.

gestion. 1t will certainly do you

AS the opening of the schools is
near at hand, directors and teachers
should consult the course of study
printed rs an appendix to tho Revised
School Laws and SO tar as practicable
carry out the State Superintendent's
recommendations as to unifying,
grading and systemizing the work in
the country schools. Special attention
is called TO the proposed alienation
Of advanced subjects and to the keep
ing Of individual pupils records.
There is disposition among some
teachers to use the texts adopted for
High schools in history and grammar
instead of those adopted for the
common schools. Morris and ShinD
are the texts in U. S. history and
RAIDER in Missouri history and gov
ernment. 1t will be plain violation of
the law for directors and teachers to
use Fisk before the subjects contained
in the above have been thoroughly
taught. The same is true of other
subjects. Southworth's grammar
can not be used until the subjects con-
tained in Patrick have been thor
Oughly taught.
The best evidences Of educational
progress in Missouri are found in the
following: Increased apportionment
Of state moneys, being more than ono
dollar per capita this year; the erec-
ton of better school houses. equipped
aud furnished so as to provide for
the comfort, health and culture of the
children; longer terms and better
salaries, thus increasing the demand
for teachers of better disciplined
minds and more general culture; de-
sire Oh the part of teachers, directors
and patrons TO articulate the entire
school system from the small rural
school TO our great State University.
The merits OF the "New Course of
Study" printed as an appendix to the
Revised School Law, are in the grad
ing of the rural schools and articulat-
ing them with each other and with
the large number of good public high
schools of the state; in the recomen-
.lation to study Nature in all of it's
phases as it touches the work of the
school; and in the use of much sup
Elementary reading, or the giving of
proper attention to classic literature
iu connection with reading and lam
guage.
Within the past year the work Of
the three State Normal Schools has
been brought to q higher plane and
new life has been infused into them
by tho adoption of more modern, uni
form and professional courses of study
for all of them. The present state
school administration heartily COM
mends these schools to the profession
and takes great pride in them because
in the faculties as at present consti-
tuted are found many vigorous,
scholarly, young native Missourlans.
The Superintendent believes that the
mission of the state normal is to take
the lead aud set the pace for thorough
academic and professional training.

It is very hard to stand idly by and see
our dear ones suffer while awaiting the
arrival of the doctor. An Albany On. W
dairyman called at drug store there for
a doctor to come and see his child, then
very SIGH with Group. Not finding the
doctor in, he left word for him to come
at once on his return. He also bought q
bottle of Chamberlain Cough Remedy,
which he hoped would give some relief
until the doctor should arrive. In a few
hours he returned, saying the doctor
need not come, as the child was much
better. The druggist, Mr.. Otto Schoiz,
says the family has since recommended
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy to their
neighbors and friends until he has aeon
slant demand for it from that part Of the
country. For Sale bye. H. Irion, drug

Democratic State Platform.

We, the Democrats Of Louisiana. in
State convention assembled, do hereby
declare our allegiance to the Chicaoo
platform of 1896.
We denounce the monopolistic com.
olnation known as trusts and demand
that the legislature and CONFESS do pass
such laws within the competency of each
as shall regulate, restrain and suppress
them.
we impress upon our representatives
and senators in congress the paramount
Importance OF judicious Federal aid to
the levee system Of the Mississippi river;
to the jettying and deepening Of South
west pass; to the improvement of the
great waterways Of the West and South,
and to the prompt building Of ship
canal connecting the Atlantic and Pa.
chic oceans, all works of national i'm
portance, in which Louisiana is deeply
interested.
We indorse the conservative and busi-
ness-like administration OF Coy. Foster,
Under that administration the credit of
the State has been enhanced and main
tanned. Every dollar OF the indebted
ness created since 1880 has been exiting
uished or provided for. No new indebt-
edness has been created; public affairs
have been placed upon a cash basis; the
State institutions have been enlarged
and improved and their usefulness in
creased; the common school system has
been broadened and extended; appro-
priations for public education have been
increased; popular interest in the
schools has been aroused and stimu-
lated; the school term has been length
ened; the leyees have been strengthened
and held against floods of unprecedented
height and duration, and at the Same
time the State has met and honored the
extraordinary demands upon the treas
ury due to great public calamities.
We pledge the ticket which we have
nominated to the maintenance and per-
petuation of the patriotic, economical
and wise administration OF public affairs
established by its predecessor and other
Democratic administrations. We con-
graduate the people that the organic
laws of the State have, without undue
political excitement or upheaval, been SO
amended as to insure the supremacy OF
the white race and the salvation Of Cau-
casian civilization in Louisiana, at the
same time that the best interests Of all
the people of the State, both white and
black, have been carefully protected.
We favor the passage of law regulat-
ing the conduct Of primary elections.
