everything was in flames. The plot to
massacre us originated with the king,

after fortune who made the big race

travelling, about and afterwards his
camping upon his claim, he encour
tered much bad water, which. to-
gether with the severe heat, gave him
very severe diarrhoea which 1t
seemed almost impossible to check,
and along IN June the case became so
bad he was expected to die. One
day one of his neighbors brought him
small bottle of Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
as a last hore A big dose was given
him while he lay rolling about on
the ground in great agony, and in
a few minutes the dose was repeated
The good effect OF the medicine was
soon noticed, and within an hour the

" There is no other candidate. Sena-
tor Hanna has repeatedly said that he

I believe that a failure to indorse
Roosevelt in the state convention would
have two effects first. it would leave
open as matter for discussion for
about ten months the question whether
Ohio was opposing the nomination or
not. and would lead to all sorts of IN
eierces and unpleasant comment.
Second I believe that it would create
the impression throughout the country
that fScL@tor Hanna himself was a can
Gidate. Furthermore, / confess want
ed to see Ohio in the grand movement
Tor a denomination of Roosevelt by ac-
olamation, ard ultimately to lead in his
election. But the real point is this: Ii il
were POSSIBLE to defeat his nomination,
the man who was nominated in his
place would be at great disadvantage,
for enormous rumbess of voters
throughout the United states would at
once feel and be justified in feeling that
Roosevelt had been defeated because OF
his course in the settlement of the
strike and his attitude toward trusts
and combinations think his cordial
Endorsement by the Ohio convention
would at least. so far ss he was con
cerned put all these controversies out
of the way and leave an open field and
