Record of Republicans.

The record OF the republican party Is
written in the amendments TO the Constitu-
tion. substantially all the federal statutes
now In force and the most remarkable Pc
riod Of progress the country has ever
known.
'lt is written also in the commercial In
vasion OF Europe. In Cuba where a new
flag has appeared as a testimonial to the
fidelity OF this party to the cause OF free
government, in Hawaii and Porto Rico a $
new territories. in the Philippines. where
civil government is rapidly succeeding mil
itary rule. and in China, where President
Mckinley's policy led and controlled the
armies Of the world marching to the rescue
OF the besieged legations i'm Pekin. These
historical indices of the Impress on the
world by the government policies and com
mercial expansion Of the American people
may be fairly claimed as part OF the his
tory Of the republican party because they
represent the purposes Of this party-as
they have embodied into law and executed
in administration
The one period when progress was
stalled and the wheels appeared to turn
backward was that four years from March
4, 1893 TO March 4. 1897, when the demo
cratic party was in complete control, with
a democratic President. n democratic Sen

ell for preparing his statement The
railroad presidents used ten days af-
ter the White House conference in
getting around to definite PROPOSE
ton, and Mr.. Mitchell should have a
few days of grace. The chief of the
miners realizes that the public is i'm
patient; that it is tired and disguised
and wants the end without delay. But
he has responsibilities to meet, and
must move slowly. A delegate con-
vention of miners of the anthracite
field will probably be called to meet
early in the week to declare the strike
off, pending arbitration.
Had the railroad presidents decided
to make direct offer of an increase
OF wages the working people of the
mines would have liked it much bet
ter. A big proportion of them cannot
see that any good position could ever
come from the hands of j. Pierpont
Morgan, who, in their opinion, is an
enemy of the human race.

4 ROARING SOUND
MRS. BROWN SAYS IT FOLLOWED
HER BY NIGHT AND DAY.
Life had Become Almost Unbearable
When She Discovered the Only
Way out of Her Trouble.

The doctor who was called to attend
Mrs. Maggie A. Brown found her al
most distracted by continual roaring
sound in her ears. her hands and feet
were ice cold and she complained OF
splitting headache. He quickly dag
nosed her trouble as nervous head
ache but, although his skill was un--
questioned, his medicine failed to bring
the desired relief. In fact. it was not
until she tried DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People that she was

Austin, Mower county, Minnesota.
gives her experience for the benefit of
others who suffer. She says:
''For the last ten years l have been
troubled at times with headache, cold
| extremities, pain in the back and an
awful roaring in the ears. In January
of last year my condition became so
bad that the doctor was called. My
trouble was complicated with a disor--
der of the liver but this seemed to
yield to the Doctors treatment The
bringing sound continued and followed
line night and day. The doctor said it
was caused by nervous headache. l
Twas sick in bed for weeks and my head
Ibid not stop aching. One day / saw
DR.. Williams Pink Pills mentioned in
a newspaper and thought would try
them. The first box helped me decid--
edly, SO got six more and by the time
| had taken them the headaches rarely
troubled me and my head felt good.
The ringing in the ears, that had prov
ed SO annoying, was gone. | shall al
J ways keep DR.. Williams Pink Pills on
I hand and gladly recommend them to
anyone afflicted as / was. They are
the only thing ever found that seem
ed exactly suited for nervous head
ache
Nearly everyone has felt symptoms
of this trouble which Mrs. Brown ex-
perienced In her case the disease was
NEGLECTED for years and became chron-
lie. Even innocent excuses cause ner-
vous headache and this is invariably
the forerunner of a nervous break
down. DR.. Williams Pink Pills build
up the blood, strengthen the nerves
and tone up the system. Taken in
time they often prevent some serious
illness. They have cured the most OBJ
stinate diseases of the blood and
nerves such as locomotor ataXia. par
tial paralysis st. Vitus' dance, sciat-
Iiea, neuralgia, nervous headache, the
after-effect of the grip, of fevers and o.
other acute diseases, palpitation OF the
heart, pale and sallow complexions
and all forms Of weakness either in
male OF female. DR.. Williams Pink

dealers or will be sent postpaid on re-
ceipt or price, fifty cents q box; six
boxes, two dollars and fifty cents, bJ

both Were shocked.

Little Elsie was a faithful attendant
at Sunday school and had listened ear
nestly when plans for a coming Chris
tan Endeavor convention were dis
cussed, her interest increas sing to en-
thusiasm over the mysterious affair
when she learned that her auntie was
to attend as a delegate.
Coming into the library one day,
auntie saw the little maid busily en-
gagged in writing letter to cousin
with whom she kept up a juvenile cor
respondence. She scrawled industri-
ously for d moment; then stopped.
There was puzzled expression on her
fat, ink stained face as she dangled her
short legs and wriggled intentionally
on her high perch
'.Auntie," she said, "how do you spell
'deyilF"
'Oh, Elsie" said her auntie, Il am
shocked! Why are you using such a
word as that in your letter? Nice little
girls never say such things"
1t was Elsie's turn to be shocked.

telling her about the Christian and
devil convention!' - Hafper's Maya.

THE LATE WILLIAM MCCORMICK
(By Rev. J. M. McEIroy.).

During my early ministry | neld SER
vices quite often in Highland town
ship, at the Brown schoolhouse and
at the Gray school house. Already,
there was an organization of Old-Side
Baptists in the neighborhood in which
the Mccormick and Stevens families
were members. These people encount-
cred some prejudices, being regarded
as exteremly rigid, and sometimes
called Hard shells" and Iron Sides. y
An incident of those early days comes
up in connection with the passing
away of VIM. Mccormick. 1t was in
the spring of 81. The corn crop Of the
preceding year had been short in both
quality and quantity. A good many
farmers and new immigrants found
themselves short of feed. One OF
these, Thomas Brown, went to VIM
Mccormick to see if there would be
any chance to get few bushels Of
corn to feed through blowing time
How much do you want?"
about six or eight bushels"
"Well there's the crib, shuck out
and measure you up as much as yo,
need"
Having done so, Brown reported
that he had taken eight bushels ant
asked how much he. owed. There wer'
some farmers selling corn at 81 PEE
bushel. Mccormick answered Brown
saying, 81 reckon the Golden Rule il
the best; the corn is worth half ;
dollar a bushel"
Not long afterward I had an inter
yieW with Mr.. Mccormick, of his owl
seeking, in which many questions
were asked and answered on Chris
tian doctrine and Christian practice
an interview that was mutually salts
factory and never forgotten / thinl
of him as a good citizen and thol
ough-going Christian.
