Congressman Reeder will be re-
elected easily this fall says John Q.
Royce of Phillipsburg, Mr.. Reeder's
manager, while here yesterday. 1.-THE
republicans are lined up practically
solid in the Sixth, while the oppoSi-
tion-is divided. There is certain to
be a Socialist candidate for Congress
in the field in short time. Several
Socialist county tickets have been
named and they insist on putting out
a Socialist for Congress. In my judg-
ment q Socialist nominee for Congress
Will poll more votes than the demo-
cratic nominee did two years ago.
The absorption of the pop party by
the democrats will strengthen Reeder.
Hundreds OF popalistS who were
former republicans will not allow
themselves to be delivered into the
democratic camp. They will come
back to the republican party. We
only have to make q change of two

APPENDICITIS.
SOME FACTS REGARDING IT'S RAPID
INCREASE.

SOME FACTS REGARDING IT'S RAPID
INCREASE.
Appendicitis among Americans is
certainly increasing and while this is
probably due to the excitement and
worry of American business life, it is
more often directly traceable to con
stipation. Appendicitis is caused by
extraneous matter entering the verm-
form appendix and not by the swal-
lowing of seeds. If the digestive or
gans are kept in perfect condition SO
the food is duly assimulated and the
bowels move gently, at least once a
day, appendicitis will never develop.
Don't take chances. Regular does of

Every time republican tells about
the commercial invasion of Europe he
is furnishing the best sort of argu-
ment why the tariff should be revised.
II we can ship our goods to Europe
and undersen her there, how in the
nane OF reason can there be any
danger of any destructive competition
here? Every article almost that is
exported to Europe is sold at a good
deal lower figure than the same arti-
S;le is sold for here. The republicans
tell us that they are sold at less than
est. Is it possible that they squeeze
their own people so hard that they
Gun go into the charity business after
they get to Europe? It is either that
Ut else they do not sell at less than
cost there. The republicans are well

why should they charge US so much
for the same article?

Boss Royce of this county is said to
be responsible for statement in the
Topeka Capital of yesterday to the
effect that Judge W. II. Pratt of this
city was likely to be nominated for
associate Justice on the middle of the
read popuIist ticket, which the repub-
1fcan bosses are getting out to try to
beat the fuSionists. Judge Pratt will
not allow the use of his name at all
and the statement was made only to
try to discredit the Judge with the
republicans of this county. Royce
evidently wants to punish him because
he dared oppose corrupt bosSiSm in
this county.

Do You Want $4,000 ?

The Herald wants 500 new sub
scribers in the next ninety days. The
Herald is the largest and best paper
printed in the county, and 500 new
subscribers would simply be 500 more
living witnesses to the fact. A live
witness is a good advertisement. We
believe in advertising. We have
therefore decided to give away $4,000
to our patrons in four prizes, the
conditions of which are stated else
where in this paper.
You get your dollars worth and
more when you subscribe for the
paper, besides we give you a chance
to win $4,000. 1t is not lottery fol
it costs you not cent to make your
estimate. The conditions simply
limit the distribution of prizes to oul
patrons exclusively.
OF course $4,000 in cash is not q
very large prize, but isn't it better tt
take one chance in 400 or 500 for 800
than it would be to take one chance
in 100000 or 600. 900 for a larger prize
See the point? Send in your subscrip
tion and tell your neighbor about it
at once.
