Headquarters aU Jacksonville.

DIR. Lutz the dentist who has been
visiting our town for the past year,
has fitted up the best dental offices
in the state at Nelsonville and will
make that place his headquarters for
an indeflnate length of time.
All parties having dental work
done to the amount of five dollars or
over, will have their car fare paid to
Nelsonville. ..
A full upper or lower set of teeth
without plate almost at the same
price as the old style. Think of 1t
full set of teeth without plate too
cover the palate, nothing to interfere
with taste or speech. no place for
seeds to get under and spoil meal,
holds tighter, is lighter, stronger,
more natural, and better in every
way than the old style bunglesome
plate. This is the greatest invention
of dental science. All infringements
will be prosecuted.

It's up to the People.

Less than a year remains in which
10 gather facts, and information that
will influence your vote for the next
president of the United States.
That grievous wrongs have been
committed, and grave errors allowed
to exist without effort at correction, is
evidenced by the speech, writings, and
comments of eminent statesmen and
jurists; congressman and leading men
of business; professors and clergymen
in every state.
Party affiliations have been ignored
in the outcry against thrusting aside
the safeguards of our fathers and rush
ing pell-mell into the affairs of Europe.
The situation is a deplorable one if
not alarming; as is also our domestic
affairs dominated by gigantic Trusts.
The evils are not of spontaneous
growth! They are the result of years
of labor and expenditure of millions
of dollarsl Beginning with the dis
placement of American silver for
English gold, the cunning of Eng
lands diplomacy in shaping the des-
tiny Of our Republic is apparent to
any ordinary observer seeking the
true inwardness of events.
The Cincinnati Enquirer has fire..
quently called attention to each and
every move as it was transpiring, and
during the campaign of 1900 will
present its readers with truthful
array of facts that will be extremely
interesting and startling.
No fair-minded American, be he
Republican, Democrat or of other
political faith, can afford at this critical
time TO ignore the truth. Partisan
prejudice, with the Trusts as dictators,
is far more degrading slavery than
that which existed previous to the Civil
War Of '6I-64.
Trusts in the United States alone
have a representative capital greater
than all the gold and silver in the
world. These will spend many more
millions of dollars to suppress truth
and facts and mislead all who fail to
look beyond their plausible decep.
tons. Read the Enquirer and you
will be able to discern the truth and
combat falsehood. A victory for
Trusts and the Mckinley Admins.
tration in 1900 will end the era OF
greatest good to greatest number.
Watch carefully the

A Night Session.
Fusion Effected.

Kansas City, July practical fu-
sion between the Democratic, Populist
and Silver Republican parties was ac-
complished here. The Silver Repub-
licans in convention here nominated
Bryan for president, but referred its
vice presidential nomination to the ma
tional committee. which later indorsed
Stevenson for vice president. Mr..
Towne, the Populist candidate for vice
president, says he will support Stew
enson, but, owing to the peculiar con-
ditions in certain states and many fear
ing DETECTION to the Middle-of-the-
Readers in others, Towne's name may
not be withdrawn from the Populist
ticket. Mr.. Towne visited Mr.. Bryan
at Lincoln after the convention to con-
slider this matter. -

fourteen of the largest and heaviest

senger engines of the day, consid-
ering the speed required. The
big engine did all that was expect

cago and Rock Island it pulled
that train of fourteen coaches with
ease on schedule time, and when
called on for little extra effort
developed speed Of over 72 miles
an hour.
Engines of that class will haul
all the special trains which will be
used by the Rock Island in it series

of one fare plus 50 90 for the round

Interesting Story of First Gathering
of Delegates at Kansas City.
Kansas City, July 4.-Chairman Jones
OF the Democratic national committee
called the convention to order in first
session. The great auditorium was
packed with humanity. Secretary
Walsh read the CALL after invocation
by Rev. s. w. Noel
When finally the chairman was able
to make his voice heard he introduced
Governor Thomas Of Colorado. the
temporary chairman.
The Keynote Speech.
Gentlemen OF the ConventioD-we meet
under most auspicious influences. On the
nations birthday, In a great central city
of the republic, at the close and opening
of a century, we come together to reaflrm
our allegiance to the principles Of Thomas
Jefferson and our loyalty to their greatest
living exponent. We have been selected
by the farmer and the artisan, the miner
and the mechanic, the producers Of wealth
In every state and territory Of this mighty
nation, to register a decree they have al.
ready determined, to proclaim a candidate
they have already chosen
We have cbeerfully submitted to a bur.
densome taxation that Cuba might be free,
that Porto Rico might enjoy the heritage
of our constitution. We have consecrated
sons to the cause Of liberty and sent
them freely forth to extinguish the last
vestige of dsspotlsm In our hemisphere We
protest against payment Of tribute or the
devotion of life to the cause Of empire.
We will emulate monarchy neither in
conquest nor in government. We would
perpetuate the Monroe doctrine and realize
with Jefferson that Its first and funda-
mental maxim Is never to entnngle our
selves In the broils Of the Old World. We
need not despoil the helpless that we may
trade with them. We realize that stand
Ing army Is the attendant Of Imperialism.
We want man Of nonplnstic mould,
conforming his opinions to passing impress
slons or of popular sentiment as facle In
their abandonment as In their advocacy.
We want man to whom right Is greater
than expcdiency, who postpones no duty
to the demand OF privilege, who Is loved
by the multitude, respected by the world.
and feared only by those who dlstrust the
people.

a speech, and upon the adoption Of the
report Of the organization committee
Hon. John B. Richardson Of Tennessee
was introduced as permanent chair
man. His mention of Bryan's name
brought the convention to its feet and

4 Patriotic Woman.

Mrs. Annie Wittenmyer, who dled
recently at Saratoga, ~ Y, raised and
distributed during the war Of the re-
bellion ever $4,000 worth of supplies
for the soldiers, and she often rode
along the front line of battle in order
to gather up and care for the wounded
as they fell. She gained national
reputation as the organizer of the diet
kitchen. 1t was while in the hospitals
at Chattanooga. in the winter of 1863
Ga, that she carried out her plan for
supplying food for the men whose con-
dition in the hospitals was the most.
serious. The government furnished
the staple articles, and the Christian
commission provided the delicaeEass
and cordials and the nurses to guper-
intend the 6'et kitchens. These Diet
kitchens were first introduced In the
department of the Cumberland and in
that of the Mississippi, and with such
excellent results that Mrs. Witten-
myer was urged to establish them In
the army of the Potomac, which she
did in the winter of 1864. This branch
of the hospital service has become per-
manent, and is recognized by the gov
ernment officials in this country as al
most indispensable in time of war.

new-fangled way of recurring the

WASHINGTON. May 1S.-For the first
time since the rebellion the house to-
day passed a measure to pay confed-
crate soldiers for losses growing out
OF the civil war. 1t was a bin intro
duced by Mr.. Cox of Tennessee to pay
the confederate soldiers who surrender
ed at AppomattoX for the loss Of horses
and other personal effects taken from
then in violation Of Lees capituIation
to Grant. by which officers and men
of Lees army were allowed to retain
their baggage and side arms anG
horses The bill originally carried $780,
eco but the specific sum was stricken
out and the appropriation was made
indefinite
Several bills were passed appropri-
ating small sums in satisfaction Of
southern war claims mostly for prop
erty destroyed.
A bill to reimburse Col. Chars. b
Dougherty and other memoirs of the
Ninth Pennsylvania regiment for bag
gage destroyed at the opening of the
Spanish war was favorably reported,
but not reached when the house at 5:25
p. m. adjourned.
