Wilmington. N. c., Oct. Ex-senator
Simmons injected the first real enthu-
siasm of the campaign into the Democracy
of New Hanover in a mastery presen-
tation of the political issues of the day
TO some four or five hundred voters in
the court house here tonight. He spoke
for two hours and received the undivided
attention of his hearers, who frequently
demonstrated their approval by great APP
plause
Mr. Simmons was presented by Col.
George L. Morton, who referred to his
peerless leadership of the Democratic
party through five successive campaigns,
and his unsullied record in the United
States Senate.
Mr. Simmons spoke first for half an
hour on State questions, defending the
administration from the Republican
charges of extravaganza and justifying
the creation of two extra Superior court
judgeShips and Scholarships correspond
ing. He said the creation of the single
office of insurance commissioner has
saved to the State more than enough to
pay the salary of these judges and solicit
tors and the increased salary of the
Governor. That every cent of the extra
expenditures had been in the cause of
education, humanity for the insane and
pensions for the Confederate soldiers.
Upon that issue he would meet the Re-
publicans at any time and under all cir
cumStances. OF the charge that during
Aycock's administration $4,000 had been
spent in attorneys fees, he said that of
that amount only $3.50 had been incurred
by the Democratic administration the
rest by Russell and his gang of Fusion
lists.
Going into national issues he explained
the Republican issue of prosperity, claim
ing that it was world wild and existed
in all countries with various tariff regu-
lations. He also went into the trust
problem and ridiculed the Republican OPP
position and called the leaders to ac-
count for crying out against tariff re-
vision.
The last half hour of the speech was
devoted to the Independents and his
structures upon that class of voters
brought forth prolonged applause He
called upon all men who wanted to
change not to masquerade under an as
sumed name, and thereby sneak into the
Republican household through the back
door in the night time. but to come out
open and above board and go in at the
front. He charged them with ingratitude
in now attempting to smite those who
had made it possible for them to dis
cuss the issues upon their merits. He
didn't like the alias or nom dc plume of
an independent or non-partisan. When
criminal breaks away from his shackles
and makes his escape the first thing he
does is to bob up somewhere with an
alias.
He emphasized the need of registration
and said the west called upon the cast
now to reciDrocate favor conferred in
1898 He closed by thanking New Han
over Democrats for the splendid support
they gave him two years ago for the
Senatorship, this having been his first

About Blood Purifiers and "TonlcS.
Every drop of blood, every bone, nerve
and tissue in the body can be renewed III
hut one way, and that is. from whole
some food properly digested. There is
no other way and the idea that medi-
cine in itself can purify the blood or
supply new tissues and strong nerves is
ridiculous and on a par with the fol-de-
rol that dyspepsia or indigestion is
germ disease or that other fallacy. that
weak stomach which refuses to digest
food can be made to do so by irritating
and inflaming the bowels by pills and
Cathartics.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure indi-
gestion, sour stomach, gas and bloating
after meals, because they furnish the
digestive principles which weak stomachs
lack, and unless the deficiency of pepsin
and diastaste is supplied it is useless to
attempt to cure stomach touble by the
use of "tonics." pills and "cathartics"
which have absolutely no digestive power
and their only effect is to give a tenn
porary stimulation.
One grain of the active principle in
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
1000 grains of meat, eggs and similar
foods, and experiments nave SHOWN IHdO
they will do this in a glass bottle at
proper temperature, but of course arc
much more effective in the stomach
There is probably no remedy so uni

IL is not only the sick and ailing, but
we'll people who use them at every meal
TO insure perfect digestion and assimlla-
ton OF the food.
People who enjoy fair health take
Stuart's Tablets as regularly as the1

cure. and Stuarts DYSPEPSIA Tablets GO

remove it where it exists. The regular
