| was ample reason for mis- having

her with an Addicks politician
after the press of the country man

his action, Mr.. Payne bethought
himself Of the ACCESSIBILITY OF al
leging that Miss Todd was guilty
of offensive partisanship" and
alleged that reason in his report to
the President. Of course, Mr..
Roosevelt is too ardent civil SER
vice reformer to tolerate Federal
employee who was guilty of taking
sides, even though she be woman,
without vote, and even though
she took sides against q notorious
corruptionist who had brought
disgrace on her State. Consequent

Todd will remain removed by or

General Frank D. Baldwin.
commanding the Department OF the
Colorado, has just made an inter
esting report to the War Depart
ment in which he deals another
blow at the anti canteen movement.
General Baldwin says: "From a
somewhat extensive observation
as inspector general and as a COM
mander of troops, [ have been
deeply impressed by the very
marked difference in discipline and
general contentment among the
enlisted men since the abolition of
the canteen feature of the post
exchange. If men are unable to
get glass of beer in decent and
orderly manner in the garrison,
they will resort to the vile brothels
which cluster around the borders
of the reservation, where they
drink all manner of alcoholic bev-
verages and often sink into de-
hatchery and ruin" In conclu-
sion, the General quotes and en-
dorses the words of his predeces-
sor, General Funston, who said:
"The recent legislation by Con-
gress, so far as this department is
concerned, has had no effect except
to lower the discipline of the army,
ruin scores of good soldiers and
fill the pockets of a lot of saloon.
keepers, gamblers and prostitutes"
The names Of the persons in.
dicted last week in connection
with the Postoffice scandals have
finally come out. In addition to
Beavers and Machen, they include
Eugene D. Scheble, of Toledo,
Ohio, James W. Erwin, assistant
superintendent of free delivery for
the territory west of the Rocky
Mountains, Isaac S. Mcclellan and
George H. Huntington, of the
Columbia Supply Company Of New
York. 1t is shown by these in
dictments that Machen and Beav- '
ers shared the profits on a device
attached to letter boxes in some
cities, showing when the next col
lection will be made, that Machen
and Scbeble shared the profits on
every letter box, and that McGie ,
han and Huntington shared with
Machen the profits on every pack
age mail box. The grand jury is
now engaged considering the legal
end of the Postoffice investigation
and 1t is expected that important
indictments in this connection will
be soon returned.

WASHINGTON LETTER.


prominent man thinks, Senator
Clay, of Georgia, who is in Wash
ington this week arranging for
winter quarters, as he puts it,
says that his state, and, he blieves,
most of the Southern States will
send delegations to the next ma
tional convention instructed to sup
port Senator German for the first
place on the ticket. When asked
what effect Mr.. Bryan's opposition
would have, the Senator replied,
"None whatever. Why, my dear
sir, we are sick aud tired of seeing
Bryan's name in the papers. If
the press of the country could only
realize that he is no longer regard
ed seriously by the practical Dem
ocrats, the newspapers would ig-
more him. AS soon as the papers
drop him, his occupation, as self
appointed dictator of the Demo
cratic party, will be gone. We
are not paying any attention to
him in Georgia. We have talked
the subject over among ourselves
and we have about concluded that
Senator German is not only the
strongest man in the party we can
nominate, but we believe there is
an excellent opportunity of elect
ing him. His Democracy, his
ability as leader and his safe
views on all the important ques
tions which will figure in the COM
ing campaign, stamp him as the
strongest man we have in our
party to-day. This estimate of
German is not confined to Georgia,
but it extends all the way from
Maryland down through Virginia,
the Carolinas, Florida, Alabama
and Louisiana"
Reports from the Northwest are
to the effect that the people of that
section, Republicans and Demo
Gratis alike, are anxious for tariff
reform, and one Republican Con
gresham, now in Washington,
admits that were the Democrats to
nominate a safe man, sound on the
money question and with conserva-
tive tariff reform ideas, he could
give Mr.. Roosevelt very close
run in Minnesota. 1t appears that
the people of that section have at
last awakened to the fact that the
tariff on wheat was imposed merely |
to hoodwink the farmers and really |
does no one penny's worth of
good, while it prevents the Mime
apolis mills from grinding thou
sands of bushels of wheat harvested |
in British Columbia and deprives
the northwestern railroads of the
benefit of hauling both the wheat
and the flour. The coopers would
also be benefited could this wheat
find it's way to Minneapolis, as
they would supply the flour bar
rels, the lumbermen would supply
the material for the barrels and so
on, until large number of north
yertern interests would benefit |
directly or indirectly from free
wheat. 1t is also desired that a
general reciprocity treaty with
Canada be effected. OF course,
such treaty would be emphatic
ally opposed by the Eastern Re-
publicans, but that very fact may
augment the disaffection of those
in the Northwest.

A WORD TO FARM TOILERS.
PAINE'S CELERY
COMPOUND
The Home Friend of the
Farmer and His Family.

After the labors and tolls OF the summer time,
and harvesting of crops in the early autumn,
many OF our farmers, their wives, daughters,
and sons, find themselves in a condition of
health demanding careful attention il suffering
is to be avoided later on. Many experience
kidney trouble in some form; with some the
liver is torpid; there is biliousness, nausea, and
vomiting, with loss of appetite and depression
of spirits. Thousands who have been exposed
to cold, damp winds and rains while toiling in
the harvest fields, now feel the twinges of
terrible rheumatism; others run down by
worry, overwork, and irregular dieting, are
tormented with the pangs of dyspepsia.
To the thousands of run down, sicky and
half dead men and women in farm homes we
recommend with all honesty and confidence
the workers friend, Paine's Celery Compound,
the only medicine that can quickly and fully
restore strength TO the weak body and vigor to
the muscles. Paines Celery Compound tones
the stomach; it removes poisonous acids from
the blood which cause rheumatism; it feeds
the weak and diseased nerves and banishes
neuralgia tortures: it purhes the blood and
gives true vitality and life. The use of Paine's
Celery Compound in autumn means the estab-
fishing of perfect physical vigor to Withstand
the ngors OF a severe winter.

WAS NOT A GAMBLING DEBT
Decision in suit for Money on Horse
sale With Contingent
stipulation.

Niles, Mich, Sept. 21.-A syndicate
of Niles sportsmen must pay John
aMdden. OF Lexington, Ky, $1,310 as
the result of his suit for the balance
due OH the price of two running horses,
NyX and Hcrodes, which he sold them
in 1901 On each horse 800 was paid
down. and $500 was to be paid when
they won their second race, which they
did i'm 1901.
Judge O. w. Coolidge, of the circuit
court, decided that the contracts for
sale were not gambling contracts or
wagerS. as the defense alleged. because
both buyers and sellers were interested
in having the horses win. and the buy
er did not lose on account of the horses
winning.
