AT the time of the withdrawal OF
Campbell and Duval at Hutchinson on
August the 2lst, the only condition
agreed to by either one was that the
other should withdraw. Duval imme-
diately left the district on business
aud did not return until after he was
nominated at Hutchinson on the 1lth
of September. There were but three
names before the convention on Sep
tember llth. Duval, Campbell and
A E. Helm Of Wichita. Helm is an
able man and Populist Could easily
have had the united support of both
Sedgwick county delegations at Great
Bend and been nominated at least In
the Populist convention; but he was.
not candidate, was not at Hutchin.
son and it was generally believed that
he did not wish the nomination.
Campbell received TWO votes and Duval
received over two-thirds of all the
votes cast on the first ballot. The del
egates were representative men who,
knowing all the facts as one not on
the ground could not, cast their bal.
lots as seemed TO them best A major
ity of the delegates to the Populist
convention favored Duval because in
their judgment, all things considered,
he was the strongest candidate and
best man before the convention. We
trust that before any Populist accepts
as truth the stuff filling Republican
papers to the discredit of his own dele
gates sent to the Hutchinson conven-
tion and to his own party he will at
least learn all OF the facts. II this is
done Duval will get the solid Fusion

Some Truths Told by One Republican Can.
didaie of Another.

In 1898 young Sinons, son of Senat-
or ~ Simons, and Representative ~
Dinsmore were both candidates before the
Republican convention for the flomina-
ton for county attorney. Both being
from the same town both were defeated
and J. NJ. Ready received the nonina-
ton. Immediately Mr.. Simons proceed
ed to charge Dinsmore and Ready with
all kinds of trades and dishonorable
actions, in lengthy and very interesting
editorial in his paper, which editorial
we will give next week. This editorial
Mr.. Dinsmore, who is something of a
scribe himself, answered in the Caldwell
Advance over his own signature. The
answer follows:
A QUESTION OF PERSONAL. PRIVILEGE.
Abou Bob Simons, may his tribe
decrease;
Awoke one night-'twas time his dreams
should cease,
And saw within the twilight of his room,
Which disappointment filed with bitter
gloom,
A figure writing in pass book old,
Exceeding wrath had made bad Bobby
bold
And to the figure in the room he said:
"What writest thou?"
The figure raised its head and in voice
through which strong passion ran,
Answered: "The name of our next con-
gresham"
"And is it Chester"
Bob spoke more slow and less assured,
The figure answered yes"
The figure wrote and vanished,
The next night he came again,
And showed in black and white,
The name which decent men most
detest,
And 10, Bob Simons' name led all the rest.

SMILE WHEN YOU CAN.

In simpler words the habit of smiling
is thing to be cultivated, as the
power to laugh is one we should cling
to. A writer has said:
"a smile is the whisper of laugh"
A poet said Smiles from reason flow,
to brute deny'd, and are of love the
food"
Still another SAYS: without the
smile from partial beauty won, o what
were man ? A world without sun.
A smlIeless world would be desc
late living place. It might be one up
right, and honest pure, and but it never
could be happy, for the spirit of happi-
ness always wears smiling face.
Smiling is duty and oftentimes it is
a force second to none. When Fritz"
Emmett was at his zenith, disappolnt-
ing OVERLOOKING audiences and wearing
threadbare the patience of his friends,
he was asked, after particularly aggra-
waited insult to a Southern audience,
''How will you ever square yourself
with those people again ?" He was
not worried-he had the same thing to
happen beforehand said so, will
give them the smile % And he did,
coming down to the footlights the next
night as if nothing had happened,
smiling the old smile, and he was back
in all hearts again, being loved inf
niteIy more than he would have been If
he had appeared wearing the stern
countenance of virtue.
The smile that is worn in society as a
mask is not the smile genuine which
adds to the beauty of the most beau
tifuI and makes the face of gentle, wo-
manly woman appear as that of veri-
table angel in the eyes of him who
loves her. The smile costs so little
and gives so much. It is approval and
encouragement to the timid and weak,
1t is a comforting bit of sunshine for
for those needing light and love,
Perhaps we hardly know when we
cease to laugh. AS we go along life
begins to grow more serious with us.
Sorrows lay their heavy hand upon our
heart and kill the Joy and laughter
there. Care takes up It's abiding place
with us, and little by little the music
drops from the song of life, our feet
grow weary in the dance and we laugh
no more.

CANCER

Sufferers from this horrible malady
nearly always inherit it-not necessarily
from the parents, but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through several generations. This deadly
poison may lay dormant in the blood for
years, or until you reach middle life, then
the first little sore or ulcer makes its APP
pearance a swollen gland IN the
breast, or some other part of the body,
gives the first warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and perrna-
nently all the poisonous virus must be
eliminated from the blood-every vestage
IF it driven out This S. S. S. does, and
IS the only medicine that can reach deep
seated, obstinate blood troubles like this.
When all the poison has been forced out
of the system the Cancer heals, and the
disease never returns.
Cancer begins often in small way, as the
following letter from Mrs. Shirer shows:

THE ISSUE PRESENTED.
Salem Statesman.

Salem Statesman.
In three years and one month Of the
Mckinley administration we have ex-
ported more agricultural products Of
the United States than in four years
Of Cleveland's administration, and we
have exported over two hundred mil
lions more of manufactured goods in
three years and two months than in the
full four years Of Cleveland's admins
tration. There can be no mistaking
the fact that under the present era
Of comparative prosperity, with labor
ers so generally employed, there has
been very much larger consumption
Of agricultural products than during
the administration of Cleveland. There
has been expansion at home and
abroad, and there will be further ex-
Dansion. under a republican adminIs-
tration. Is there any voter in Oregon,
upon carefully taking a view Of the
present situation, who would like to
have It disturbed? The way to disturb
it is to give the opposition to the repub-
lican party lease Of power at this time.
