Yes, August Flower has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers
and grandmothers never thought
of using any thing else for indi-
gestion or biliousness. Doctors
were scarce and they seldom
heard of Appendicitis, Nervous
Prostration or Heart failure, etc.
They used August Flower to clean
out the system and stop fermenta-
ton of undigested food, regulate
the action of the liver, stimuli
the nervous and organic action of
the system, and that is all they
took when feeling bad and dull
with headaches and other aches.

Saturdays Election Results.

Of one hundred and thirty-three mem- bers of the general assembly of Ala bama the returns from Saturdays pri- maries indicate that Senator Morgan will receive the votes of nearly one hundred and twenty to succeeds him. self in the United States senate. Re- turns to last night indicate that Senator Morgan carried every county which acted Saturday. In several counties friends of Governor Johnston were elected to the legislature, but they were instructed to vote for Senator Morgan There has never been such a complete tidal wave of ap- proval of any mans course in political life in Alabama as that accorded to Sem ator John T. Morgan on Saturday.
 The gubernatorial contest furnished the greatest surprise. William J. Sanford of Lee will go into the state convention with perhaps twice as many votes as any other candidate and with perhaps three-eghts of the total vote of the convention Con- gressman Jesse r. Stallings, who was ex- pected to lead in the contest, seems to have developed but little strength. Speak CT Charles E. Waller of Hale developed strength only second to Sanford and will go into the convention with strong fol- lowing. The result in Jefferson between MT. Tomlinsen and General Shelley yet seems to be in doubt, and 1t may take the official count to decide

MI S. nEWEY's WICHITA PROPERTY
Town Lots Said to Have Been Won by Gen
 Hagen in a Poker Game to be Sold

Wichita, Kan, April u.-Mrs. Dewey may have to come to Wichita soon or send an attorney to straighten out the title to some lots owned by her former husband, Gen. w. B. Hagen. The lots were won in a po- ker game here in the early days by Gen. eral Hagen. Little attention was paid to securing a good title, and now, when Mrs Dewey wants to sell them, she has found that the title is impaired.
 In 1871 General Hazen was stationed here Wichita was an end of the trail town, and gambling was the ruling passion. General Hagen was good player. One night he and Dave Bancroft. a real estate dealer engaged in poker game, and, sitting be- hind four kings Hagen bluffed the real es- tate man into betting fifty town lots. Next day the deeds were made out, and after that General Hazen dealt extensively in Wichita property.

ALABAMA HAS SPOKEN

From the Montgomery Advertiser.
 The majestic voice of the people has pro- nounced emphatic judgment on the issues it's deep significance
 It speaks for higher and better things. It declares that men shall not mount to office by vindictiveness, boasting or low appeals to bad passions. It rebukes at tempted personal domination of the party, however high the official who seeks to be- come its master. It condemns low concep- tions of duty, which permit the appointing power to use public servants as mere per- sonal retainers in political struggles. It warns all who deal with the conditions and history of the state, that the people know something of it's affairs, and can not be deceived by misstatements or false pre- tences.
 It gives notice to the world that Ala hama is not narrow or unpatriotic in deal ing with national problems. It teaches the rising generation that high attain ments. pure methods and freedom from greed, are the only sure passports to the lasting esteem of the people, and indis- pensible conditions to the enjoyment of great offices.
 It proclaims that public servant, who tries to do his duty, may remain at his post and trust his cause to the people.
 The sweeping verdict of yesterday means that the party will be strengthened, and a cordial unity and good will cemented which has not been seen in Alabama in years.

land. Russia or the United States. what ever they may see in hemmed-in Ger many, stagnant France, complex Austria, or ancient Italy. Englands domination of the sea has not been seriously threatened since the days of Queen Bess, and Russia and the United States hold great bodies of territory that are capable of immense de- velopement.
 But if one language is to dominate the world, as some think. it certainly is not the Russian or the Chinese language. It must, it seems. be the Anglo Saxon tongue, and this seems to be the mission assigned to the two great Engish-speak- ing powers. This is why two of the four world powers speak one language, and have one set of traditions and customs. There are greater possibilities and fewer limitations apparently in store for the Anglo-Saxon powers than for either the Russians or the Chinese, who are utterly unlike and cannot be combined for world conquering purposes
