Very Little Vow Compared with
Oideu Times

As matter Of fact. there is little
or no gambling now in the capitol com.
pared with the conditions OF years ago.
There used 20 be a time when certain
committee rooms were the rendezvous
for poker players. and the games were
generally without limit.
Many senator's and representatives,
do not object to a little game now. but
they play in the evening and not at the
capitol. There were poker stories ga
lore around the capitol in the ol1en
days One incident became a classic
There was a party In the room OF a
southern congressman, AMI The game
ran high. A western member opened
jack pot. aud the southerner, who
was upon his left, came In, together
Nth two other congressman. The west
C'ncr stood pat. whereupon the south
erner discarded two cards. The bet
ting began and soon became so swift
that only the southerner and the west
erner remained. Finally the latter
called his colleague, and the hands
were shown.
The westerner had opened the pot on
four kings. As soon as he stood pat
the southerncr broke a pair of skies
and held the four. five and six OF
spades in his hand. hoping against hop,
TO make a spade flush. lie was dealt
the seven and eight OF spades, making
a straight flush.

A hungry kitten was pu. into a cage,
the door of which would fall open
when loop of wire that hung in front
of the cage was pulled down an inch.
The kitten tried to squeeze between
the bars. clawcd and bit at them
thrust its paws out between the bars
and clawed at various loose objects in
the cage. II clawed the loop several
times, but not with enough force to
pull it down. After 100 seconds Of such
activity, it happened to claw the loop
hard enough, and so escaped.
After It had eaten the food outside
il was put into the box again. There
was repetition of the same activities
but the successful movement came this
time after thirty seconds. on the next
trial, general activity for ninety sec
onds was required before the kitten es
capped. With repeated trials the assO
citation between the interior Of the box
and the act of clawing at the loop be
came fixed. so that finally the kitter
would do it in a few seconds-that Is
as soon as put into the box.

the matter in hand and arrange to

grounds near the city. There is a

the buildings here, which are not

The Right Kind of a Candidate.

Hon. Jonas w. Olson. the demo-
cratic candidate for congress in the
Henry county district. expects tn
make an active campaign and cover
every county. In speaking of the
convention. Mr.. Olson said to re-
porter that il was a surprise to
him. as he did not even know how
his own county would go. and he had
declared himself in favor of DIR. w.
II. O'Bradley. Questioned as TO the
probable strength of the democratic
party in the district in the coming
contest. he said:
THE district since the reorganiza-
ton is almost entirely new to me,
and / can't say much about it. IL is
true that | have heard some talk
of the dissatisfaction of the republi-
can party on the way Mr.. Prince has
stood in the Cuban and tariff mat
ter. but how much this will affect
him | can not say. / expect to get
out and work and do what ! can for
the success of the party. l should
think that the outlook at the pres
ent is better than it has been for
some time"
Jonas w. Olson is one of the lead
ing politicians of Henry county and
a prominent attorney of Galva, where
re has practiced for many years. He
has served term in the state legis-
lature. from 1870 To 1872. and WIS
postmaster at Galva for two years
during President Cleveland's admin
istrations. When the late Congress
man Philip Sidney Post was can
didate for congress the last time he
was opposed by Mr.. Olson on the
democratic ticket and the latter made
strong fight. He is a prominent
citizen of Henry county and has a
large personal following.

All should BE for Harmony.

There should be no great difficulty
in the matter of democratic harmony
during the next national campaign.
IL appears now that the issues pre-
senting for the democratic party at
that time-that is the paramount is
sues-will be for tariff reform, oppo-
sition TO trusts and anti-imperialism.
1t will be of small consequence
whether Mr.. Cleveland and Mr.. Hill
think at that time that Mr.. Bryan
was wrong when he favored 16 to l..
or whether Mr.. Bryan and Mr.. Stone
think that Mr.. Cleveland was wrong
when he lost the opportunity of
Shaking the democratic party the
successful party of the people, which
it should have been the last few
years.
The three great issues suggested
are fully in harmony with the eX-
pressed views of both sides of the
controversy. AS they quarrelled
equally upon the great issues of the
past campaign they should have no
difficulty agreeing upon the issues of
the coming campaign. on which both
sides of the controversy have eN-
pressed themselves in entire har-
mony.

Illinois, grand in resources, il like
wise grand geographically. The
Freeport Bulletin says: illinois is
always classed as a northern state,
which is proper, for its northern
boundary is on the same parallel as
Windsor, Canada. In spite of this
classification, however, Cairo, at the
southern extremity of the state, lies
in the thirty-seventh parallel, form
ing the northern boundary of Texas,
Indian Territory, Oklahoma, New
Mexico and Arizona. 1t runs through
Virginia near Fortress Monroe, and
cuts Kentucky forty miles north of
Tennessee and Arkansas. Cairo is
seventy-five miles south of Frank
fort and Louisville in Kentucky, and
is over hundred miles south of
CovingtOn, in the same state. While
Illinois is truly northern, it extends

There is more catarrh in this sec
ton of the country than in all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it local dis
ease, and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven ca
tarrh to be a constitutional disease,
and, therefore, requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by f. j. Cheney

stitutional cure on the market. 1t is
