he Kane county

The Kane county supervisors
sprang a surprise the other afternoon
by passing a resolution. by a vote of
Is To - reducing the salaries of the
county and probate Judges from 81
900 "a year to $1,000. The same reso-
luton provided for the reduction of
the salaries of probate and county
clerks from 5000 a year to $1,000.
The announcement of the action of
the supervisors created CONSERVATION
in the camp of the candidates for
county offices, who are just now in
the heat of fight. The offices af-
fected by the cut are those most
sought by Elgin men. and. as the res
olution was introduced by Supervisor
Hawthorne. backed by Supervisor 4.
T.. Lewis. both of whom are Eighties,
the feeling against them in the city
runs high.

Another Protest Against the Repub-
Iicau Machine.

Here comes the Decatur Herald,
one of the staunchest republican pa
pers in the state with this cutlery
against the state machine of it's own
party:
The Herald has repeatedly called
attention to the Lorimer-Hopkins-
Yates combine. how IL was organized.
what its purposes and objects are and
how Mr.. Hopkins became factor in
the combination. While these per-
sons are the prime factors in the
combination they represent neither
one of them standing alone is any
part of the real issue presented to
the republicans of Illinois. There
are those who try to make il appear
that the real issue * the candidacy
of Mr.. Hopkins for United States
senator. The facts admit of no such
conclusion and republicans who have
the interest of the party at heart
should not entertain such an as
sumption for one moment. The sena-
toriaI question is only an incident in
this contest. The issue which the re-
pubIicans are called upon to- decide
* whether the control of the state
convention, the control of the state
central committee, the control OF the

La Grippe Quickly Cured.

I'm the winter of 1898 and 1899 I
was taken down with severe attack
of what is called Ia grippe" says f.
l.. Hewett. a prominent druggist of
Winfield, Ill. The only medicine l
used was two bottles of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. 1t broke up the
cold and stopped the coughing like
magic. and L have never since been
troubled with grippe" Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy can always be
depended upon to break up a severe
cold and ward off any threatened at
tack of pneumonia. 1t is pleasant to
take, too, which makes it the most
desirable and one of the most popu-
lar preparations in use for these all
ments. For sale by all druggists.

The Powell dayton Incident.

RumOrs of diplomatic scandal are
rife i'm Washington. Complaints have
been made relative to the conduct of
Powell Clayton. ambassador To- Mex
leo. by the American residents of
Monterey. and President Roosevelt
has been requested to recall Mr.. Clay
ton. The charges against him are
that with a number of Mexican Off
cials he * identified with mining en-
terprises; that he has misrepre-
scented facts to the state de-
partment: that he has refused. be-
cause of his connection with "a syndi-
cate to take steps TO protect Ameri-
can citizens in their rights; that
American mine operators have been
arrested and the ambassador has alb
solufely refused to take notice of
their complaints.
These are charges that should
be promptly Investigated. The
state department was disposed to re
gard them as without foundation. but
the president has felt it polite to at
least make investigation of the
charges before it is announced from
Washington that the incident is
closed

We Can Tell You How to
Overcome PaIeness and
Weakness.

The question Is often asked why it Is
that women of this generation suffer as
they do. Perhaps they are paying the
penalty of indiscretions committed by
their ancestors. Undoubtedly such is
the case, for there has never been an age
when so much care has been exercised
by women in general in regard to Hygiene
and the care of themselves.
There is one thing that we do know
and that is most women, need more
strength and more rosy cheeks. They
need to be built up, made physically
strong, given a good appetite and espe-
cially see that their blood ismade pure
and red.
Nothing will do an this for women rs
well, or as quickly, as VinOl. Itstrength-
ems every organ of the body. 1t above
all tones up the stomach and enables
this important organ to obtain all the
nouriShment necessary for the replacing
of waste tiss ne and fer the revivifying OF
the blood.
Especially have we had opportunity to
note the benefits done by Vinol during
convalescence from disease nor do we
know of anything more valuable to nurs-
ing IL NiOtS 50 LOW ditlS
enabling the mother to gain strength for
herself and the little one, from the food
she eats.
Here is letter bearing on this subject,
written by Mr. w. J. Hamilton of lTGG
Times Street, Keokuk, iowa.
''My wife was left in very much weak
ened condition with = severe cough. She
had no appetite and had gotten down
physically to the very bottom rung Of
the ladder. l gave her Vinol and the
cough disappeared, her appetite returned
and now she is feeling firSt-class. is get
ting stronger and better and gaining in
flesh every day"
Do not forget that we guarantee
that VinoI will do all we ciaiE1 for IL
and back our guarantee with our
promise TO refund to anyone the price
of this medicine, who is not thorough
Iy satisfied with results.

nothing had happened, and the duel

The prominence of the men had at
tracted general attention to the duel.
and when the boats carrying the prin-
cipals and seconds were seen crossing
the Mississippi back to Alton a large
crowd stood on the shore awaiting news
OF the result of the supposed encounter.
Again Mr.. Lincoln's whimsical tenden-
cies saw the chance for another Joke.
Placing log in his skin he had II COW
cred with clothes. and as the boat ap-
preached the shore the spectators
thought II was the body OF one OF the
principals. When they reached the
shore Mr.. Lincoln. cody reached down
took the clothes of the log. and rolled
the latter into the river. II took the
spectators on the shore moment to
realize the situation, but when they did
a roar OF laughter went up that dis

The duelists remained In Alton all
night and dined ut hotel with their
friends. and although both men fought
each other with intensity during poll

ever afterward. The old duellng ground
at st. Charles thus brought together
two statesmen who would have prob
ably remained bitter enemies through
