A LOST OPPORTUNITY.

Aug. II, 1900.
The tide in he affairs of
men and political parties that
is supposed to lead up to
something. was missed by the
popocratic convention at Ok
lahoma City by a large ma
iority, and as a consequence,
disaster awaits fusion at the
election in November.
There is not the slightest
doubt as to the outcome Of
the contest this fall for dele
gate to congress--tne MAORI
~ for the present incumbent,
H. T Flynn, being the only
factor that cuts much of a
figure. Good Judgment and
sound political sense would
seem to have suggested that
they name a candidate who.
by reason of his strong per
sonal following and ability to
conduct an aggressive cam
paign would have kept the
Republican majority TO &

have beer referred to as the
best that possibly could be
expected in a Republican year
like the present one.

for the place. He could not
have been elected-not this
year-but he could have pol
led the biggest vote Of any
man whose name was pre-
sented before the fusionists.
and there Is plenty of reasons
for this statement. To be
gin with, one of the largest
lodges of travelling men in the
west had its headquarters at
Oklahoma City. There are
something like /. 500 travelling
men who make the territory.
and they are the greatest
hustlers, and most liberal set
Of men extant. Had "Bill'
Crocs, who possesses the love
and respect Of the boys"
been selected as the fusion
candidate. the drummers
would have cast politics to
the wind and provided the big
boost and a sufficient cam
paign fund TO have made a
redhot battle for their col
league.
The convention turned
down "BnI' Cross and the

under any circumstances, but
to be slaughtered in the

have Democrats cast a Dem

Celery Compound is in no sense a pat

formula was, and it is today, freely fur
nished to physicians in good standing

No man or woman whose nervous
system is not in perfectly healthy con-
dltlon can properly perform the work
that is his or hers to do. No person
with shattered nerves can run the race
of life in competition with the healthy
man. While this is true in every call
ing, there is no better example than
the case of The engineers who guide the
passenger trains on the railroads. And
it is true that no one class of work
men furnishes better example of
what Paine's Celery Compound can
accomplish than the railroad engineers
of America. They rely only upon this
one remedy to supply the tissues that
their nerve-racklng task exhausts. Tt
was with the sanction of the authori-
ties, of the great New York Central
Railroad that w. Fl. Raymond, the
engineer who runs the famous Empire
State Express, gave the following testi-

NTHEN disease attacks the ner-

at once manifest themselves
differ in different persons, When the
intricate and wonderful nervous sys-
tenn is in perfect condition, no man or
woman is sick, except from infectious
disease.
Sleeplessness, dyspepsia, rheumatism,
most of the weaknesses and ailments
that exhibit themselves in different
ways in men and women are now
known to be only the local symptoms
of the beginning of a diseased nervous
system.
1t is no more possible to cure these
Affections by superficial treatment than
it is to dam the Mississippi by bar
of sand. The only effective cure for
these diseases is the repair Of nervous
tissues
1t has been absolutely proven that
Paine's Celery Compound cures ner-

form, as no other remedy in the world
can, or does In fact, it was by the
