An Old Iuen,

Every day strengthens the belief of emf
nent physicians that impure blood is thu
cause of the majority of our diseases.
Twenty-Five years ago this theory was used
as basis for The formula OF Browns Iron
Bitters. The many remarkabi1 cures effected
by this famous old household remedy are
sufficient to prove that the theory is correct.

REPUBLICANS VOTE TOMORROW
Election for Delegates to the Na-
tIonnI Convention.

Great interest is being taken by Repub-
lican citizens of the District in the cleo
ton of delegates to the National Conven-
tion of that party. to be held in Philadel-
phia June 10. These delegates are to be
chosen tomorrow. when those having the
right to vote viii cast their ballots for
either DR.. Robert ReybuTn and Rev. Geo. ge
W. Lee or DR.. j. f. Jones and Calvin W.
Chase.
The fight between the rival candidates
for the honor has been warming up for
some time and grows hotter as the time
for final settlement approaches. This is
due to the split in the ranks Of the Dis
trict Republicans on the question Of suf-
frage. The supporters OF DR.. Reyburn and
Rev. Lee, who are pronounced advo cates
of absolute suffrage in the District, are
confident of victory. 1t is not settled as
yet by this faction who will be endorsed
for National Committeeman. but 1t is not
unlikely that the political lightning may
strike DR.. Reyburn if he and Lee are
elected delegates.
The other faction, of whom Dr. Jones
and Chase are the choice for delegates
have already endorsed Myron NJ. Parker
for National Committeeman. and Mr.. Par
ker, it is alleged BY the Reyburn-Lee fol-
lowers is opposed to the right OF suffrage
being extended to citizens of the District
Of Columbia
1t is expected that the full vote of the
Republicans Of tie District will be cast.
The usual vote is from 5000 to 5000.
