siI2 500 for a Prescription.

The largest sum ever paid for pre-
scription, changed hands in San Fran
cisco, Aug. 30, 1901. The transfer in
volved in coin and stock S112. 10000 and
was paid by party of business men for
a specific for Bright's Disease and Dia-
betes, hitherto incurable diseases.
They commenced the serious iuvesti-
cation of the specific Nov. 10, 1900.
They interviewed scores of the cured
and tried it out on its merits by putting
over three dozen cases on the treatment
and watching them. They also got ply
sicians to name chronic, incurable cases,
and administered it with the physicians
for judges. Up to Aug. %, elghtyseven
per cent of the test cases were either
well or progressing favorably.
There being but thirteen per cent of
failures, the parties were satisfied and
closed the transaction. The proceedings
of the investigating committee and the
clinical reports of the test cases were
published and will be mailed free on ap-
plication. Address JOHN j. FULTON

Hard Pushed,

A paper is certainly in bad fix
when the only argument it can ad
vance is to hold its opponents res
ponsible for advertisements publish
ed on the patent side of the papers,
and that is the position taken by the
Sparks In its article about the Regis
ter last week. The editor of the
Sparks realizing that the public
generally considers him irresponsl-
BILE for anything that appears on
either side of his paper feels safe in
charging up every advertisement as
the work of his opponent. The fact
that those same advertisements were
published in the Sparks also makes
no difference either, as his general
responsibility will cover all faults.
But no amount of such slush as he
is giving the public will cover the
main fact that the fusion officials
made immense increases in the rail
road assessments last fall to fool the
voters, and also to get large in
crease in other assessments, which
would give them a large state fund
to squander, and then having accom-
plished their purpose within five
months cut the railroad assessment
over so per cent, making them rela-
lively lower than they were before.
The railroad assessment under the
old law were S35, 900; the equal
ization board under the new law has
fixed them at S5S,000,OO0, and the
Sparks has the effrontery or ignor-
ance to call this an increase of 175
per cent.
The railroads offered to accept a
valuation or S7O,00O,0OO without a
law suit, but their fusion friends did
$12,0O0,0OO better by them. As the
assessed valuation of all other proper
ty in the state has been doubled it
will be seen that the railroads have
been the only beneticiaries by the
change, except of course the fusion
state officials who haye more money
to spend.

The Business Man and Politics.

The Republican Union Club of this
city is discussing the question, "How
to interest the business men in rep
ublican success ?" If the business men
are alive to their own interests-as
they usually are-the problem should
not be difficult one to solve. The
republican party is a business maker.
when the republicans control the
government times are good. Dem
ocracy and depression have become
synonymous. History established
these facts; and trade revivals under
republican rule have been to frequent
to be regarded as condolences. 1t
did not merely ''happen" that finance
and commerce reached condition
of ruin during the last democratic
administration and that the greatest
era of prosperity the country has ever
known was inagurated with the re
turn of the republican party to power
and has continued ever since. The
republicans promised prosperity and
they have made good their pledge.
As strictly business proposition, re
publican success must appeal to bus
mess men.
The coming campaign will be a ma
tional one to the extent that one sena
tor and congressional delegation
are to be selected In this state
On state issues the republicans
need only to call the business mans
attention to the blunders of the pres
ent fusion administration, executive
Legislative and county. Its record is
one of gross incompetency. The fu
sionists have proved themselves unfit
to conduct the business of the state
and in this county they have been
crlminally careless, if not actually
criminal Would any good business
man conduct his own affairs as the
business of this county has been
carried onY
An appeal to the judgment that a
man applies to his own business
ought to be sufficient to secure his
co operation with movement for the
success of the republican party.-Den-
yer Times.

Spring Fever

Spring fever is another name for bill
iousness. 1t is more serious than most
people think. A torpid liver and inac-
tive bowels means a poisoned system.
If neglected, serious illness may follow
such symptoms. DeWitt's Little Early
Risers remove all danger by stimulating
the liver, opening the bowels and cleans
ing the system Of impurities. Safe pills.
Never gripe. II have taken DeWitt's
Little Early Risers for torpid liver every
spring for years." writes X. NJ. Everly,

The Free Trade Raiders Caught

Inc FFee tFdue NdiueTS CduSnt
From the first talk of tariff reduc.
tions ''to aid Cuba" the Globe Dem
ocrat has declared the movement to
be mainly free trade assault upon
the Dingley tariff, the object being
to drive wedge that would rip up
the existing law generally. The dis
closures just wrung from free trade
propagandist before the Senate com
mittee on relations with Cuba clinch
the correctness of our view. This
witness, f. b. Thurber, is the pres
ident of the United States Export
association, free trade organization
and he receives percentage on the
fees of all its members. In addition
he handles contributions to push the
free trade cause. He testified before
the Senate committee that Mr. Have
meyer, of the sugar trust, had paid
him $2500 to make sentiment in be.
half of tariff concessions to Cuba, and
that Gov Gen. Wood, before retir-
ing from the island, had paid him
from the Cuban treasure $4,000 for
the same purpose.
1t will be asked what service Mr..
Thurber, president of free trade
association, proposed to render for
this S2500 in cash from the magnate 9
of the sugar trust and the $4,000
from Gov Gen. Wood. Thurber's re-
ceipt to Wood states that the money
was for sending out 100000 circular
letters and accompanying publica-
tions to leaders of thought in the
United States" One witness, from
Omaha, testified that he had been Of
fered a considerable sum of money
to get articles favoring Cuban conces-
sions in the patent insides of news
papers in Nebraska and the middle
west. 1t seems to be the opinion of
the free trade managers of the United
States export association that certain
''leaders of thought" with authority
over patent insides, are susceptible
to pecuniary arguments, but in the
case referred to the money rendered
was declined.
Mr.. Havemeyer would not have sent
the S2500 to Mr. Thurber if he had
not been sure that the proposed tariff
concessions to Cuba would profit the
sugar trust, and Havemeyer also ap-
pears to hold intimate, though quiet
relations with active free trade work-
ers. Gen Wood is an amateur in pol
iticts, as his recent circular to United
States senators, marking ont their
line of duty, efficiently proved. But
Havemyer and Thurber, partners in

pushing free trade. are practical pol
iticians, who work beneath the surface
and not for their health or for glory.
The phrase "Cuban tariff conces
sions" is now thoroughly identified
with crafty free trade trap, fnan
cially backed by the the sugar trust.
