The Campaign Questions.

What has the Democratic party done
in the last four years to cntitle 1t 10
the government? What great, vital
pledge in its platform has the RepubI-
can party not fulfilled? What new
issue has it not met? In what respect
is it not entitled to the confidence or
the people as much today as four years
ago? The usual dust of campaign
time has begun to fill the air. 1t takes
a short while to get shoulder 10
shoulder There is always at hrst a
little confusion, but no panic. For up
goes the flag; as it floats out. lne
bugle sounds the charge, ana the ranks
grow steady. We know our cause is
lust; we know our leader Is true we
forget the frictions and the JealouSieS
and the grumbing; we remember only
the great principles for which we nave
stood. and we sweep for country and
for right, irresstibly on to victory
Secretary Long.
These were the concluding words of
the great address delivered in Boston,
Thursday night. by Secretary Long
before the MiddleseX Club. Between
now and next November another great
presidential campaign will be waged
and the two questions asked by Secre-
tary Long will be those which the
country must consider and answer.
why should the Democracy now be
trusted with the government? Why
should not the Republican party re-
main in power? Sure enough. why?
In his magnificent peroration, the
eloquent secretary of the navy
summed up the whole situation. 1t is
true that now as the campaign is
about to begin there is a little dust in
the air. a little confusion. But there
is no panic, there can be no
rout. The great army Of Republicanism
will close up its ranks and march with
resistless might to certain victory. It's
cause is Just, and its leader true; the
flag under which it marches and the
principles for which it battles, are the
fulfilled nor is there any present prob
lem with which it is unable to cope.
Its enemies can no more be trusted by
the country than four years ago; their
leaders and their cause are the same;
their only activity is that of negation.
obstruction and opposition. Republic
canism faces the future; with faith in
the nations high destiny, with courage
and strength and zeal it leads the way
by the happy paths where sunshine
walls that the world is dark and hurls
itself under the wheels of progress.

Senator Hale's Cable Report

The report presented to the Senate
cons truction of government cable to
Honolulu is a sensible and practical
move. Ultimately there must be cable
connection from our Western shore to
the Philippines. and the sooner this is
accomplished the better, but first there
must be further surveys and there l.
also a conflict of opinion whether this
cable should be laid under the Pacific
or by the way of Alaska and Asia
the matter Of government or private
ownership of the proposed cable. I'm
der these circumstances the recon-
mendation of Chairman Hale is a wise
solution of the controversy.
There is imperative need of cable
connection with our nearest depen-
dency in the Pacific and there should
be no delay in the matter. We now
have connection with the Philippines
tiiN uIlpuS anu tAIltHSl|t " w SUI -
but Hawaii is completely isolated. If
the cable to the Philippines is laid by
the Alaska route there will have to be
separate cable to Hawaii and it
cannot be built too soon. If the Hawaii
and Guam route is finally decided
upon, this cable can be extended to
Manila and Japan. Senator Hale pro-
poses an appropriation of $3,0O000O for
the cable. the work to be done by a
private company. under direction of
the navy department. and the owner
ship and control Of the cable to b.
turned over to the postoffice depart
ment. 1t is busincsslike ana states
manlike proposition. and should al
once receive favorable action.

BRAIN FOOD
Is OF Little Benefit Unless II Is uigested.

Nearly everyone will admit that as
nation we eat too much meat and
too little Of vegetables and the grains.
For business men. office men and
clerks. and in fact everyone engaged
in sedcntary or indoor occupations,
grains. milk and vegetables are much
more healthful.
only men engaged in a severe out
door manual labor can live on 4 heavy
meat diet and continue in health.
AS a general rule. meat once a day
is sufficient for all classes Of men.
women ana children. and grains. fruit
and vegetables should constitute the
bulk of food eaten.
But many of the most nutritious
foods are difficult Of digestion and il
is Of no use to advise brain workers
to eat largely of grains and vege-
tables where the digestion is too weak
to assimilate them properly.
1t is always best to get the best re-
suits from our food that some simple
and harmless digestive should be taken
after meals to assist the relaxed diges-
tive organs. and several years eX-
perience have proven Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets to be a very safe. pleasant
and effective digestive and a remedy
which may be taken daily with the
best results.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets can
hardly be called a patent medicine, as
they do not act on the bowels nor any
particular organ but only on the food
eaten. They supply what weak
stomachs lack, pepsin diastase and by
stimulating the gastric glands increase
the natural secretion of hydrochloric
| acid.
People who make a daily practice of
taking one or two of Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets after each meal are sure
to have perfect digestion which means
perfect health.
There is no danger of forming an
injurious habit as the tablets contain
absolutely nothing but natural diges-
tlves; cocaine, morphine and similar
drugs have no place in a stomach
medicine and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets are certainly the best known and
most popular of all stomach remedies.
Ask your druggist for fifty cent
package Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
and after weeks use note the i'm
provement in health, appetite and nerv-
Gus energy.
