A theme of prime interest in his.
tory interested the men in many
biyouae. This was the settlement of
the question as to which troops went
highest up Cemetery Heights at the
famous charge at Gettysburg.
Had we space we would entertain
our readers with a colloquy between
representatives from several States,
to which the Dallas Times Herald
gave several columns. The subject is
of such interest that we quote few

Not Nevada Indians.

Johnson Sides, the old Piute Peace
Commissioner, who has been coming to
Sacramento for many years with the
Indian hop-pickers, is very much exer-
cised over the statement published a
few days ago that the Indians who were
engaged in the drunken brawl near Elk
Grove last Thursday night, when an old
man named McCarty was killed, had
come from the S~agebrush State. Sides
declares the Nevada Indians had nothing
to do with the affair, that the crime was
committed by half breeds who hail from
Ell Dorado county, in this State.
Sides proudly decares that the Indians
who are under his direction are temper
ate men and before they were given per-
mission to leave their reservation in Me-
vada they pledged themselves they would
not drink any liquor during their alb
sence. He says they have kept their
faithfully, knowing If they broke
them and the fact was found out they
might not be permitted to go back to
their homes on the observation-disclosures

A Powerful SearchliSht.

The latest invention is that of a sig
nal light which it is claimed will pene-
trate the heaviest fog for a distance of
half a mile. If 1t a success many acct
dents on both land and sea car be avert
ed. Much interest is being manifested in
the discovery, the same as in any other
invention that is intended to a " life.
This Is the season so many people have
been interested in Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters during the past fifty years. 1t is
recognized as the best health maker and
blood purifier in existence, and with good
health and pure blood disease cannot
find a. foothold. 1t is therefore specially
adapted for persons in i'll health and who
suffer from heartburn, indigestion, dys-
pepsia, constipation, or malaria, fever
and ague. Try it.

1t is pretended that Senator Tom
Platt of New York and ]. p. Morgan are
incensed over the antitrust speeches of
President Roosevelt.
But why?
Roosevelt roars as gently as a suck
ing dove.
He talks an infinite deal of nothing
about the trusts. All he says of them
a be classed under the mead Of gilt
tering generalities. He has not made
one specific recommendation of any sort
looking to action by Congress. and has
been very careful to caution the public
against any ''on-to-Richmond'' policy.
Roosevelt may mean all he says about
the trusts, but what does it all amount
to?
Senator Lodge, formerly considered a
good Republican, has. on the other hand.
s~candalized his party by actually recon-
mending the abolition of tariff duties

Take Care Of the Stomach.

The man or woman whose digestion is
perfect and whose tomac performs it's
every function is never sick. Kodol
~cleanses, purifes and sweetens the stom-

NOTES FROM 1.-THE COmMONER."

1t appears that Mr.. Roosevelt is max
ing a rather belated revision of his Min
neapolis Labor Day speech.
When the editors of Manila Freedom
get out of Jail their first act will be to
change the name of their paper,
The statement that President Roose-
welt is displeased with the Republican
campaign text book inclines us to the
belief that the book fails to feature the
San Juan Hill episode.
Banker Andrews of Dtroit says he will
not serve his sentence of fifteen years
for embezzlement, and as he embeZzled
something over a million dollars the
chances are that he will not. The
chances of his serving the full term
would be greater if he had stolen a sack
of fiour or a ham
Senator Dolliver offers as proof of the
splendid opportunities for young men
the case of a young man of his ~acQuain-
lance who worked for five years at $500
a year and saved $500 of 1t. The Senator
might nave offered more encouragement.
For instance, J. Pierpont Morgan made
so, 900, 900 In three months by openly vio-
Gates won $4,000 at poker in three
hours.
The Republican machine in Illinois or
ganized a n and marching club among
the inmates of the Kankakee insane asy-
lum and the band and club were freely
used in Republican campaigns to arouse
enthusiasm. But the members are not
to be blamed.
If President Roosevelt does not like to
nave Secretary Shaw defend the beef trus
while Attorney-Ge neral Knox is prose-
cutting CD 1t, he has only himself to
blame for he commanded the cabinet Of
ficers to go out and defend the admins
tration on the stump.
The Republican papers which criti-
cised Mr.. Bryan for making campaign
tours in 1896 and 1900, and said it was
not ''dignifed" for a Presidential can
ids to run around after votes
these same papers are praising the Pres
ident for the dignifed course he Is pur-
suing in making political Speeches ir
behalf of his party and his own renomi'
nation.
President Roosevelt in his recen
speech at Concord, N. H., said: "Abou
all we lave a right to expect from gov
eminent / that it will see that the card
are not stacked and If 1t does that thel
we will abide by the deal" Abraham
Lincoln used to employ Bible quotation
when he wanted to make a question
plain, but the present head of the Re
publican party seems to consider tn
language of the card table more familia
to his supporters.
