ANY article, whatever its merit,
must be made known to the public by
means of advertising. Advertising,
however, though it can do much for a
thing, cannot do everything. 1t may
create a sale for time, but in order
TO insure a lasting demand the thing
advertised must have solid worth.
This is the case with Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound. 1t has
solid worth.
Women everywhere have learned
this fact, and the result is that there
is a lasting and absolutely unequaled
demand for IL. 1t has the largest sale
Of any remedy for female ills in the
world, and this has been the case for
years.
The reason for this is that Mrs.
Pinkham claims nothing that she is
not entitled 10 claim. She can do all
that she says she can do, and her
twenty years of experience make her
advice invaluable, HereXperience has
been not only long but worldwide,
and she has helped more women back
To health than any one else in the
world. These facts should, and do,
have immense weight with all sensible
women. Remember these are not wild
statements but solid facts.

DEsPONDENT VIEW.

NEW YORK. Aug. "a dispatch to the
Tribune from London says: In spite OF
the message received from Sir Claude Mac
donald. announcing the safety, or the COM
parative safety Of the Pekin legations up to
Aug. 3, official circles here are full Of pes
simism. Gloomy views still prevail, and 1t
is felt even now to be more than doubtful
whether the allies can strike hard and quick
ly enough to save the ministers.
The publication here Of the latest Conger
message confirms this Respondent opinion.
A curious example of this despairing
frame Of mind is found in the queens
speech. read at the close of the parliament
tary session. Her majesty Is made to say
that it IL matter of uncertainty whether
the British minister and his family have
been among the victims of Chinese violence;
yet shortly before this document was SUBJ
mitted, Mr.. Broderick read to the house Of
commons a cipher dispatch from Sir Claude
which showed that, at any rate, the British
minister was alive on Friday last. Outside
OF the foreign ONCE there is a strong hope
that the emphatic message communicated
by Consul General Goodnow from the
United States government may have some
effect. Men who know the Chinese and their
methods believe that the mandarins will
deliver up the mlniters unframed, but not
until the last moment and when they see
the game Of prevarication and resistance
is UP.
This would be in accordance with the
attitude of Ii Hung Chang after the Tien
Tsin massacres Of 1870. and with celestial
precedent generally. but the experts admit
that the positions Of the Manchu and Tartar
fanatics like Ii Ping Hang and Tung Fuh
Slang, at the head of large bodies Of we'll

WOULD ABOLISH THE CONVENTION.

Besides nominating Robert M. LaFolletto
for governor after rejecting him twice, the
Republicans Of Wisconsin have adopted =
platform which advocates some radical po-
litical reforms. The most striking Of these
Is the proposed primary election system Of
nominating all candidates by the Australian
ballot and without the Intervention Of
conventions. The platform attacks machine
politics In vigorous terms, and the abolition
OF the convention Is proposed as a remedy
for the evil Of bossism. It is urged in be-
half of this plan that every voter would be
given an opportunity to express his choice
for national. state and county candidates
free from the domination of the now ALL
powerful boss: Opponents OF the plan con-
tended that the statutory enforcement of .
system OF primary elections would mean a
double election expense to the state. The
elaborate Australian machinery would have
to be duplicated in every election year. At
the same time 1t is not denied that a wisely
devised primary election system would, by
its Adjustment Of the caucus and the con-
vention, make the manipulation Of nominal
lions infinitely more difficult.
In several of the Southern states nomina-
tons are made in the manner proposed by
the Wisconsin Republicans but primaries
are not prescribed by statutory enactment.
The parties are at liberty to return to the
old plan II they choose. Direct nomination
by primaries has been tried also in Penn
sylvania to limited extent, and Hennepin
county is to make an experiment of that
kind this fall. II the Republicans are vic
torious in Wisconsin and fulfill their prom
ise that state will be the first to make the
sytem both general and compulsory. and the
result may prove of great value in pointing
the way to an elimination of the machine
and the boss.-The Minneapolis Times

THE FINANCIAL ASPECT.
The Minneapolis Sunday Times Of
last Sunday publishes a financial articl,
with this for q heading:
THE WEEK IN STOCKS.
SHARES LOWER THAN AT ANY TIME
SINCE 1897.

The Market for Securities Was Practically
Paralyzed and There Was Even Less Life
In the Bond Market-Important Develop
ments During the Week Toward Equal
ization Of International Money Market
Conditions-The Bank Statement Con-
formed to Expectations-The Movement
of Stocks Yesterday Was Small Though
There Were "a Few, Good Gains-Bonds
Were Still Apathetic.
And in 1t is the following:
The market for securities in New York
was practically paralzed this week. Deal
tngs dwindled progressively until in the
latter part OF the week the aggregate of
shares sold dropped back to figures not
reached before since the stagnation Of Jan
uary, 1897. There was even less life in the
bond market, the daily average sales having
fallen considerably below a million dollars
par value. Beyond the slight sagging ten
dency which is the natural result of this in
anitfon there have been no important
changes in prices. It would be possible to
detail quite long list of different factors,
all probably having something to do with
the stagnation in stocks. But these factors
all converge in the money market and it is
there that the index must be watched for
which is to point the direction of emergence
from present conditions.
This looks encouraging for the future.
The gold pouring out-our money 60
ing to other nations-and no return
movement, or hope of it.
How long can the nation stand this
drain?
That is the reason that the money
class has taken the alarm. Id.

presidential situation. There has been q
strong rumor to the effect that the North
Carolina Populist would take the bit between
his teeth and insist that Populist be named
for vice president ON the Populist ticket.
1t Is said that a majority of the COM
mittee take the other view of the situa-
ton, and believe that Mr.. Bryan will be
able to win over Senator Butler In case
the latter takes an antagonistic stand re-
garding the selection Of Stevenson. Judge
johnson chairman of the Democratic ma
ton committee. was In conference for .
short time with the Populists.
It 10 apparent that the few real Pop
ulists in the fusion party will have to
''sing small In obedience to the band
master.
They are determined that the humili-
alton shall be complete. Even Popu-
lists who have been defeated by Bryan's
orders will be approached and told that
they must humiliate themselves still
further and that in return they will re-
ceive private promise of an office, pro-
vided the Democrats have any Offices
to give away. l. D.
The representative. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1893-1901, 1900-08-16

Not until Aug. q, and then in full session
Of their national committee, will the Popu-
lists decide upon successor to Mr.. Towne
as candidate Tor the vice-presidency.
There are heart-burnings not engendered by
the weather. still smouldering and Is days
Is none too long in which to seek and apply
an assuager Probably Mr.. Stevenson will
be Endorsed. 1t 10 the logical thing to do
but 1t means. to many Populists, distaste-
full absorption by the Democrats and an
abatement Of all pretensions to entity or
influence.
The fusion Populists did not realize
when they put their ticket in the field
that events would 60 shape themselves
that 1t would be manifest to all the
world that they were simply an adjunct
of Democracy.
Having taken Bryan for president
there would be nothing for them but to
take Stevenson for vice-president. There
would be no middle ground to be occu-
pied.
They would then be full-blooded Dem
ocrats. Id.
