IT is an insult to the laboring man,
says Mr.. Bryan, and lesser democrat
lights echo the sentiment, to talk about
a "full dinner pail" The laboring man
is not so lacking in intelligence as Mr..
Bryan seems to imagine. lie knows that
the full dinner pail' is but symbol of
plenty, a synonym for prosperity, and
means not only an abundance Of provis-
ions for himself aud his family, but it
means bette clothing, better homes bet
ter furnished, better education for his
children, an abundance of the necessities
of life together with fair share of its
luxuries. Oh, yes! The workingman
understands by the experience OF the
last four years the real meaning of the
phrase "a full dinner pail" and he knows
equally as well by his sad experience
during the previous four years, the dire
signifcation of "free soup houses"

that she could take bottle of the rem

price paid. In the course of day or
two the lady came back in company with
friend in need of cough medicine and
advised her to buy a bottle of Chamber

ECONOMY"

The silverites, since being in control of
the board of supervisors, have been loud
in their proclamations of ECONOMY" and
one Of the actions about which they have
talked great deal is the fact that they
have parceled out the county printing in
driblets to the lowest bidder, frequently
away from the county seat to the great
inconvenience Of county officials and at
times securing material much cheaper
than contract specifications, as was to
b9expegted when contracts were made
al yes barely covering the cost of
! = paper, and then saving only very
s1rdollars at most to the county, as the
-.srfliount of printing is small item of
county expenditures. If new stoves,
blank books, floor coverings or other
supplies were needed, they were bought
at the market price. Bids were not
asked for. The county got what it
wanted and paid the regular price there
for. 1t is easy to see that the contract
: printing system was inaugurated in the
hope that a large portion of the county
printing might go to democratic printers,
as it has done. The cry of economy
covered the motive of partisanship.
This year the board practiced "econ-
omy" again, but failed to mask its par
r vtisanship even in slight degree. Here
tofore, each item was awarded to the
lowest bidder, except that last year the
Courier was paid 10 cents per page more
for printing the proceedings of the board
of supervisors than The True Northerner
bid-but the board had to do that to
give anything to the Courier at all. This
year the board awarded everything to
the Courier its own price, regardless OF
the fact that it was not the lowest bid
der on all items.
Last year The True Northerner printed
circuit court calendars at So per term
and bid the same again this year. The
contract was awarded to the Courier at
80 per term.
The True Northerner bid 20 cents pei
page for printing the proceedings of the
board of supervisors and publication OF
the same in this paper. The work was
awarded to the Courier at 80 cents pei
page.
The True Northerner bid "a per 1,00C
on letter heads, contract for which was
awarded to the Courier at $3.50.
This was ECONOMY" with a vengeance
We predict that this exhibition of rank
partisanship and injustice will be one o
the influences that will retire some o
the democratic statesmen of the boarc
to private life next spring.

The county printing was let to the
Free Press and Courier.
Supervisors Dlllman, Lampson and
Wildey were elected as the board of
county canvassers.
A new safe was authorized TO be pur-
chased by the sheriff.
The committee on county buildings
recommended that the superntendents
of the poor repair the furnace in the
main building at the county house; that
two rope ladder fire escapes be procured
for use at county house; that the sheriff
be authorized to place steel ceiling on
the jury room, and that the communica-
tion received from the state board of
corrections and charities be placed on
file. Recommendation adopted.
The salary of county officers was fixed
as heretofore: Clerk $500; treasurer 800;
prosecutor $1,000.
Board adjourned at noon Saturday,
until Monday, January Z, 1901.

THE special session of the legisias sare
has come and gone, and has done It's
work. Another republican promise has
been specifically and absolutely redeem
ed. The railroad charters have been re-
pealed. An amendment to the constitu-
ton, permitting the enactment of laws
for taxation of corporations on values
will be voted on at the November elec.
ton, and should and doubtless will be
adopted by good majority. The work

Blood.

We live by our blood, and on
it. We thrive or starve, as
our blood is rich or poor.
There is nothing else to live
on or by.
When strength is full and
spirits high, we are being re-.
freshed, bone muscle and brain,
in body and mind, with con-
tinual flow of itch blood.
This is health.
When weak, in low spirits,
no cheer, no spring, when rest
is not rest and sleep is not
sleep, we are starved our blood
is poor; there is little nutri-
ment in it.

Don't be deceived or humbugged by

hitherto unknown herb or root in
swamps, or on some mountain or prairie
for the cure of kidney or bladder troubles.

that the county treasurer could procure
