Question Answered,


Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the civ.
ilized world. Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors we're scarce, and they
seldom heard of appendicitis, nervous
prostration or heart failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation of un-
|digested food, regulate the action of
the liver, stimulate the nervous and
organic action of the system, and that
is all they took when feeling dull and
bad with headaches and other aches.
You only need q few doses of Green's
August Flower, in liquid form, to make
you satisfied there is nothing serious
the matter with you. Get Green's

That Senatorial Nomination.

That Senatorial Nomination.
Many of the papers of this senatorial
district are mentioning names of re-
sidents in counties in which they are
published rs the proper ones for can
dtddtes for the senatorial nomination
by the republican senatorial convention
The Monona county papers are insist
ing on the name OF f J. HOgne of Blen-
Coz as theproper one. The Capital, Lsfe
Young's paper, of last Saturday, says
that VIM McFarlana, of Blenco, has
also been mentioned as q candidate.
Both these men ar good republicans
and good citizens. AMI IT this was Mo-
nona's year nn doubt either of them
would make q very cred,tsble member
of Iowa's upper house.
But this should be Harrison county's
year. The district is debatable one
at the very best. The majority given
Mckinley last November can not be
considered as absolutely certain for
the republican ticket in 1901. In fact
q discount of at least fifty per cent.
should be allowed even with reason
ably we'll known and popular republic
can nominee. For that reason it sp-
pears that the right thing to do will he
to nominate j. 5 Dewell, of Missouri
Valley, for senator. He made the run
four years ago against one of the
shrewdest and most popular of demo-
Gratis, Hon. L r Bolter, and did so
we'll that his canvass was considered
phenomenally good by politicians all
over Iowa.
With the acquaintance that Mr..
Dewell has all over the district and the
prestige of the remarkable campaign
of 1897 he is the logical nominee for
the senatorship this year. He is able,
conservative. clean and honest, and
will be able to poll the most votes.
While it has not been the practice of
The Observer to take the initiative in
naming men as candidates for any Of
flee heretofore, yet it has never been
obligated not to do so If the occasion
should arise. Having expressed our
views on the senatorial candidacy and
named choice for senator, perhaps it
will be pardonable if we express q
preference for representative from
this county. This preference is that
of The Observer, and is given without
any consultation with, and so far as
we know, any knowledge whatsoever
of the party that we favor for candi-
date, II b Killing, of Woodbine. A
man, who by natural ability and sue
cessful business life, is well qualified
to represent Harrison county in the
