The name Of the demopopocratic

"One day last winter lady came
to my drug store and asked for a
brard OF cough medicine that did
not have in stock" says Mr.. c. r.
Grandin. the popular druggist Of
Ontario, N. Y. "She was disap-
pointed and wanted to know what
cough preparation l could recon-
mend. l said to her that | could
freely recommend Chamberlain Q
Cough Remedy and that she could
take bottle of the remedy and
after giving it fair trial if she did
not find it worth the money to
bring back the bottle and l would
refund the price paid. In the
course OF day or two the lady
came back in company with a
friend in need OF a cough medicine
and advised her to buy bottle of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I
consider that very good recon-
mendation for the remedy" II is

AMONG the many peculiar fea-
lures of the Sabin silver rcpubli-
can petition are the names of two
of our prominent school teachers,
Superintendent o. ]. Blakesly and
Prof. 4. E. Cole. Inasmuch as
neither OF these gentleman have
ever affiliated with the silver re-
publican party, the inference is
plain that Mr.. Sabin proposes to
use his position as president Of
the school board to force the school
teachers Of La Junta to boost his
election. Any old thing goes in
war, love, or politics, even using
our public schools to subserve po-
litical ambitions.

NJ. L. Farwell, of La Junta, was
in town yesterday, getting ac-
quainted with the voters and pre-
pairing the way for his election to
the Office of state senator in No
vember. Mr.. Farwell is a young
man, very pleasant in appearance
and successful business man.
The fact that he has been grand
master of exchequer OF the knights
OF Pythias in this state for the past
eight years, places his personal
character above reproach and will
appeal strongly to the sentiment
OF all members OF that grand fra
ternity. His pleasant manner made

Gently held in Abilene, Kansas,
the chairman who presided over
the convention was a Bryan man
in 1896. and every delegate from
one township voted for Bryan in
1896. There were fully a dozen
men sitting as delegates in the
convention who voted for Bryan in
1896, but who will vote for McKin-

SAILING usD.s FALSE rseres.s..

Fred A. Sabin, mayor of La
Junta. president of the school
board, and demopopocratic candi-
date for state senator, is also the
candidate of the alleged simon
pure silver republican and Teller
silver republican parties Of Otero
county-by petition. The petit
ton was fathered by Major Dam
eron. head push Of the democratic
party OF Otero county, and circu-
lated by Father-in-law Bourne,
president OF the democratic club,
all in the interest of silver al the
Tiato of sixteen-to-one, and incl
dentally to subserve the interests
of Mayor Sabin in his candidacy
for state senator.
The petition is wonder to be-
hold. Not single signer ever
affiliated with the silver republican
party, and it looks like a bunco
scheme to capture few votes un.
der false pretenses. There are
ffty-seven signers from La Junta,
ave OF whom are women, and fifty
one from Rocky Ford. The FIVE
women signers from La Junta are
Maud Athey and Mrs. ]. F. Ever
EFT, democrats; Blanche Dunlap,
Sabin's stenographer, and Misses
Louise Crockett and Nora Hodges,
silver republicans from Missouri.
Among the other signers are two
city officials, Lee Gillen, water
commissioner, and Tom Perkins,
assistant chief of the FIRE depart.
ment, both silver republicans from
Ireland.
Sabin is mayor of La Junta, and
probably city officials deem it wise
to stand in with the powers that be
under most any old political desig-
nation. A political party by any
other name probably looks just
alike to them.
Other signers are E. v. Sabin,
brother Of the mayor; Tom Wood,
democrat; John B. O'Neil, populist;
VIM. O'Neil. populist; Pete Kranz,
democrat; NJ. A. Lee, democratic
Office holder; D. D. Ritter, demo-

timbriated or separated by narrow
margin of white.
ORDERED THE FLAG CHANGED.
In accordance with the practice usual in
such cases, the court artist was INSTRUCT
ed to make a drawing on the margin
of the kings order in council.
Sir AnGrew McGeOrge, usglng the cor
rection of the flag in parliament in 1881.
said: The directions We're so plain that
even the merest tyro in heraldry could
understand them, and the artist must
have been exceedingly stupid or ignorant.
instead of making a narrow margin OF
white around the cross of st. George,
the artist drew a border of white equally
as large as the St George cross, thus pro-
ducing or giving the effect of two
crosses, one white and one red; and two
saltires, one white and one red The ezl-
ira white cross is meaningless and main
ly out of place.
The orders from England are now to
the effect that heraldic prOpriety must
prevail over a practice originating in OBJ
Yious error, and the national flag VIII
hereafter be flown according to it's true
blazon. The reduction in the breadth %
the white border of the ST George cross
is ordered and also a slight increase in
the width of the Irish satire.
The flag order was marked Rush" ana

months since the order was given.
