DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN BOOK.

The democratic congressional cam paign book, which has just made its appearance, is a volume of 3S4 pages, the major portion of which is devoted 10 the discussion of imperialism and trusts, 240 pages being given to these two topics. Upon the title page is the democratic slogan, 'equal rights to all; special privileges to none. The volume opens with the platform of 1900, and the resolution adopted by the democratic members of the house at their conference of June 19, arraigning the republican party for failure to give relief to Cuba, and to enact proper antitrust legislation, Then follows an extended criticism of the republican book, many of the statements contained therein being challenged as to accuracy, especially those dealing with the trust question. Under the head of imperialism there is a long general review of the Phil ippine policy under the following heads:
 Attempt to divert the issue; parti- san censorship; war department in- vestigation and that of senate con- trasted; war department policy of suppression; farcical investigations; a court martial stopped because it would prove too much; court martial trial farce; cruelty committed and encouraged; crimes of war and not of soldiers; American expansion yer sus Roman imperialism; colonialism and trade statistics against colonial

New Use for Burros.

The G. A. R. men of Albuquerque are talking about a novel and striking advertisement for New Mexico to be employed Gjlring the national en- campment at Washington. It is pro posed to take along a couple of burros. In the big para;ies the New Mexico nighiingales, laden with huge loads of wool, fruit, grains, minerals and other products of the territory will be given a prominent position
 The promoters of the unique idea naturally feel that such an exhibit would attract universal attention
 The burros may be depended on to do their full part both as object les sons and ju advertising their presence by judicious exercise of those rare vocal powers upon which rests the chiefest claim for fame of the animals
 It costs something to transport burros to Washington. Not much, it is true, but the department treasury does not vet contain d burro fund
 Those interested in the plan are look ing about for ways and means tC achieve their object. It is felt that once in Washington the burros can be sold for enough to defray the ex- pense of transportation. But who will furnish the diDero to pay the passage! is the pressing question

POLICE WANT GRANNAN.
A We'll Known Arizona Sport Being Hunted for Iampering With the Mails.

Riley Grammar, a former resident of Phenix, and one of the best known men among the sporting fraternity in this section, seems to have plunged once too often and now the police of Minneapolis and the postoffice in spectors are looking for him, Al though no direct charge is made against him, the evidence is that Grammar is mixed up in a postoffice scandal from which it will be hard for him to extricate himself. The Minneapolis Journal says:
 Several mysteries connected with the recent robberies of the mails in the Minneapolis postoffice have not been cleared up and inspectors are busy trying to unravel them. One that proves especially trying is the theft of draft of S2S0 from a letter from Chicago. The draft was cashed at local gambling house, but no trace of the man who cashed it can be found. Local police worked on the case at one time, but Riley Grammar, the plunger," the man who is said to have cashed the check with c. L. Loomis, cannot be found.
 Grammar and his wife left Phenix some time last winter and have not been heard from since. While here he played a cornet in Washington street saloons. Mrs. Grammar, it will be remembered, attempted to con- init suicide in Prescott last fall, but failed. She came back to Phenix, but the couple did not remain here long-Phenix Gazette.

AN OPTIMISTIC VIEW.

Our contemporary sees only good to the democratic party in the scram- ble which has taken place for the S20.000 year position of sheriff. It says:
 "While all democrats are anxious to have this matter settled, the hon. est tenacity with which these men stand by the men of their choice shows one of the noblest traits of manly character, and when an agree ment is reached, men of this charac- ter are the very kind of men who will abide by the agreement and work for the choice of the convention, no mat ter who he may be-"
 Before writing the above the editor of that paper probably came upon some partisan of one of the candidates unexpectedly and surprised him while in the act of sharpening his political knife for use in case "his man" dld not get the nomination. Ii is very certain that the opinion ex- pressed above is not the one gener- ally heard on the street and around town generally.

reads between the lines of the story and understands the unspeakable anguish and dread begotten of extreme nervous ness and weakness. No woman can read the sorrowful story of suffering told be- low by Mrs. McAdoo, without heartfelt sympathy with her condition and heart felt gratitude for her cure.
 vIt is with pleasure that I add my tes- timony to that of others, hoping it may induce others to avail themselves of the benefit of your invaluable medicines" writes Mrs. R. G. McAdoo, of Whiting, Mississippi County, Missouri. rNearly a year ago I was taken down with severe case of sickness. I suffered un- told pains and misery such as no one can describe. Was confined to my bed most of the time. I could turn no way with out it giving me pain. I was afflicted with falling of the uterus and alteration. Had bad drain all the time, and drag ging-down pains through my back and hips; no appetite; bowels were costive; had smarting, itching and burning in tlIe vagina all the time. My head and temples, back of my neck, shoulders and sides pained severely. Had kidney trouble, too. I ached all over; had cold feet and hands all the time. I suffered a great deal with pains in both sides, and much tenderness on pressing over the uterus. I was bloated terribly at times in bowels and limbs. I could not sleep; noise it seemed would kill me. could not get on my feet alone. can- not describe the constant pain to which I was subject every moment of my Gte.

They said they could not cure me or do anything that would greatly benefit me. My husband suggested one day that I try some of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre- scription. I asked him to get me bot tie of it. He gave me a tablespoonful, and it soon eased me. He then wrote to nr. Pierce in regard to my case.

DEMOCRATIC MACHINE POLITICS.

Machine politics was never so ap- parent in a convention in YaYapai county as it was in the democratic convention which has just completed its labors in Prescott. The whole worlrof the convention was cus and dried prior to the meeting with the exceptioHof the nomination of a can didate for sheriff Hobbs was the machine candidate but the Hooker forces were inveigled into the sup port of the machine candidate for chairman with promises of support. The nomination for a candidate for sheriff was placed away down the list so that the Hooker supporters could be utilized in carrying out the machine programme, as it was feared that if this nomination came up first the broken promises made to them would become apparent and they might bolt the machine and smash its slate. The Hooker delegates only saw the trap into which they had been led when it was too late to cor rect the error, and when their candi- date withdrew. sufficient strength was thrown to Hickey to secure his nomi nation. In discussing the proceed ings last evening one of the veterans of demo cracy said he had been at tending democratic conventions ever since 1850, and he had always fought machine politics. He said that for the first time in his life he had been induced to enier into a combination with the machine at this convention, and from his experience with it, it would be the last time.
 A great many delegates have gone away with very sore spots on their political anatomy, and it remains to be seen whethe- they will heal up by November f They probably will. They generally do.
 The weakness of the ticket is uni versally commented on by democrats who do not permit partisanship to blind their eyes to the public good. The greatest weakness is in the leg islative ticket, not a single candidate for the assembly having a dollars worth of interest in the territory so far as known. The total belongings of all three candidates could be packed in one gripsack and without overcrowding 1t, one of them having been in the territory barely long enough to vote. If any one of them. aside from the fact that he has no in terests of any kind in the territory. is possessed of a single qualification for the position, it is not apparent.

SUCCESS BREEDS IMPERTINERCE.

Our contemporary this morning compares a republican running for office in yavapai county to "the bovine which tried to butt the engine of the track" There are others among the democratic bosses who feel the same way. The party has been successful at the polls so long, that it is now beiieTed by them that a yellow dog" cr a man not even as good as a yrl'oU dog, can be elected if nominated. i;n the same theory certain officials have assumed that they can do as they please in office, regardless of the public interests, as the democratic majorityis sufficiently large 10 see them through. While there are democrats in the county who will vote e.: the traditional "yel- low dog ii is appears on the demo- cratic ticket. and who will even vote for a man of whom a yellow dog would be ashamed to be found in his company. democrats are not all built that way. There are democrats whose political stomachs will no stand yellow dog. There is a limit beyond which they will not follow partisanship >blindly where it con flicts with public good. Many of them have come to the parting of the ways just now and are prepared to vote for good clean representative citizens if nominated by the republi- can convention. It may not be as foolhardy proceeding after all to run on the republican ticket this year, as it looks to the eyes of the editor of the Courier.
 The success achieved by the demo- cratic party for the past few years ia this county has not only bred imper- tinence on the part of many of its leaders, but has also bred contem pt for the public good, self interest be- ing uppermost in their minds.

Radical Departures.

Not iong since President Loree, of the Baltimore x Ohio road, issued an order that hereafter no female steno- graphers are to be employed by the operating department of the con- pany. Those who now hold positions are not to be dismissed, but when it is necessary to hire stenographers hereafter they must be males. Now General Passenger Agent Stone, of the Louisville and Nashville road, has taken even a more radical de- parture and has appointed Miss Der tha Hatton assistant city ticket agent of the L. and \. at New Orleans. Miss Hatton is the only female filling this position in the United States. She has been for some time steno- grapher in the office of Division Pas senger Agent Ridgely of the com pany at New Orleans, and it was Mir. Ridgely who recommended her ap- pointment.

Take Care of the Stomach.

The man or woman whose diges. ton is perfect and whose stomach performs its every function is never sick. Kodol cleanses, purifies and sweetens the stomach and cures positively and permanently all stom- ach troubles, indigestion and dys- pepsia. It is the wonderful recon structive tonic that is making SC many sick people well and weak people strong by conveying to their bodies all of the nourishment in the food they eat. Rev. J. H. Holladay of Holladay, Miss, writes: "Kodol has cured me. I consider it the best remedy I ever used for dyspepsia and stomach troubles. I was given up by physicians. Kodol saved my life.
