 Never before in the history of the republican party. which covers a peI- iOd of twelve conventions. have both candidates on the ticket been chosen unanimously. Consequently President Mckinley and Governor Roosevelt can justly enter the campaign with the confidence that they have the undivided support of their party. if candidates ever have possessed it.

 The essential facts remain that dur ing this administration the finances of the government were put on sound basis. that credit was restored. that business revived. and that the country entered upon an era of industrial ac- tivity that shed its blessings upon labor as well as capital The cam paign orator who forgets that or seeks to belittle it will address deaf earS.-Philadelphia Ledger
 Mckinley was voted into office four years ago as the advance agent of prosperity" Prosperity no longer needs an advance agent It is here But Wm. Mckinley still perSOnifies as he did four years ago. the principles of protection and sound money. which brought it. It has been shown during the last four years that business has confidence in Wm. Mckinley; that capital seeks investment. instead of hiding places; that labor is sought for. instead of being constantly engaged in the breaking search for employ ment.

resent an attack on the character OF a
social or business friend, and even de-

politics. In politics men denounce one

An amusing feature OF every pOliti-
cal campaign ia the overconndence of
each party in its own ability to defeat
the opposing party. Each one knows
just how II can be done-knows the
weak points OF its opponent and the
easy ways Of taking advantage OF them.
These things are true OF all parties and
in all campaigns
1t Is n maxim Of war not to underrate
an enemy and the same maxim is good
for political campaign. It is wise to
prepare for action as II the advantage
WAS with the opponent and that II won d
require all OF ones skill, strategy and
strength to overcome him. Victory Is
not always to the strong. Parties often
fool themselves by over confidence, and
TO rely on small things TO bring victory
is great political mistake:

The IrI R. Hicks 1901 Almanac.

Whatever may be said of the scien-
tifc causes upon which Rev. Irl r.
Hicks bases his forecasts of storms
and weather, it is a remarkable fact
that the specific warnings of every
great storm, flood, cold wave and
drouth, have been plainly printed in
his now famous Almanac for twenty
years. The latest startling proof of
that fact was the destruction of Gal
weston, Texas, on the very day named
by Prof. Hicks in his Almanac, as one
OF disaster by storm along the gulf
coasts. The 1902 Almanac, by far the
finest, most complete and beautiful
yet published, is now ready. This re-
markable book of near two hundred
pages, splendidly illustrated with
charts and half-tone engravings, goes
as a premium TO every subscriber who
pays one dollar a year for Prof.

WHO DISCOVERED AMERICAN
Pekin Records Show Chinese Saw America
Before Columbus.

The archives of Pekin have given
up a secret that may lead to the sOlu-
ton of a mystery that has baked
every student of American archaeology
since the Western Hemisphere was
first visited by Columbus.
There have been found in the ancient
Eastern capital records which prove
conclusively that a landing was made
on this continent by the MOngolians
in the year 499 a. D., centuries before
the Genoese Admiral was born and
before the acceptance Of the theory
that the ca tn is a globe led the wise
men of Europe to seek a new world in
the West.
Students of early American history
have found unmistakable evidence of
Asiatic civilization among the forgot
ten ruins OF the Continent. They have
followed these traces through the Won
derful works left by the Aztecs and
family through the predecessors of
the race. the Ioltecs.
They have .ound what they believed
10 be proof that this Asiatic influence
came to America from the north sue-
ccss.yc!y through xhat is q Cali
fOrnIa and Lower California, but be-
youd this there has been nothing but
the vaguest speculation. The discOv-
cries made by American soldiers in
Pekin shed a new light upon the sub
iect. The records may indeed bridge
over a chasm Of centuries.
The story Is that five adventurous
missionaries sailed from the western
coast 'of China, crossing the Pacific
and skirting the Fox Islands, and
finally sighting the Western coast of
the American Continent They TUNED
southwark and proceeded along with
in sight of the shore until a landing
was made in Mexico, opposite the
Peninsula Of Yucatan.
Here Il number of temples Were
tIcSlCu III Liz hhHlC vi hliSll -Ou'
There is little doubt that these same
edifces are described by De Charny
in his book as Buddhist temples
This interpretation OF the Frenchman,
while close to the mark, missed by a
margin the real authorship of these
evidences Of an unknown civilization.
It.may not have been Budda, but
probably it was Confucius who inspir-
ed his Jealous deciples. This may
also clear up the mystery surrounding
the astonishing strides OF the Aztecs
in architecture and industrial arts.
The supposition is that the Chinese
who landed on our continent at that
tine instilleo the natives with their
wisdom in craft and the raider arts to
such an extent that there resulted a
people of peculiarly high develop
ment.
Be that as it may, the records found
in Pekin will not be contradicted
and must remain as prima facie evil
dence of the courage and thrift of the
Chinaman.
