II YOU HAVE Pain IN YOUR BACK
Do Not Be Deceived. You have
Kidney Trouble, and You Do
Not Need a Physician to
Tell You So.

Pain in the back Is an almost infallible
sign of kidney disease; a s,1rer sign is
the condition Of your urine. If you have
pain in the back, then look to the con-
dition of your urine. 1t is easily done.
Take glass or tulnbler and fill it with
urine; after 1t has stood "a hours, if it
has sediment, if it is milky or cloudy,
If it is pale or discolored, stringy or ropy,
your kidneys and bladder are in a dam
gerous condition and need immediate at
tention, or the consequences may prove
fatal. DR.. David Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy is the one medicine that really
cures all diseases of the kidneys, liver,
bladder and blood, rheumatism, dyspep-
STA and chronic constipation, and 1t will
take you but a short trial to convince
yourself of its wonderful curative power.

"Chump Factories -

There are variety of chumps in
this country. Some are born chumps,
some achieve chumposity and others
have chumpness stuck into them. The
chump who votes the republican ticket
these days solely because he has been
made to believe that his prosperity
depended upon the success Of that
party, is the most pitiable of them all.
He was told to vote the republican
ticket and get cents for his fat cattle.
He voted the ticket and got $3.50 to
50. 20 per hundred for his cattle. He
was told to vote the republican ticket
and get S7.6O for hogs. "Vote the re-
publican ticket and have 6O-cent
corn''-but corn is 80 cents. 'sLet
well enough alone with dollar wheat, -
they said, but wheat is 80 cents, by
the way, just precisely the price OF an
ounce of silver. "Well enough" was
let alone, but it was the "well enough
of the trusts that got the benefit. You
got your 5-gailon can filed with gaso-
line for 20 cents just a short year ago
and now it takes sl.lO. Coal is ris-
ing, lumber is in the sky, railroad

1t is intimated from Washington
that the independence of Panama is
assured from the fact that this
government will not permit any fight
ing on the istbmus aud consequently
Colombia will be unable to put down
the rebellion. The people of panama
can be depended upon to stay where
they are for the reason that the money
paid by this government for the privi-
lege of building and maintaining the
canal will be paid to the inhabltaB ts
of that very small territory instead of
being paid to the Colombian govern
ment, and the money will hold them
loyal to this country if there was no
other consideration.

A negro has been found in Kansas
City, Kansas, who says that he was
paid $40 for services connected with
the house at the last session of the
Legislature although he was not in
Topeka at any time and did no work.
He knew nothing of the matter till
after the session when the member
for his legislative district paid him
the money, claiming that the balance
OF the amount, s14, which he was
supposed to have earned, had been
paid to clerk to get his name put
on the pay roll. 1t is up to the menu
Der to explain and it is up to the
people to render a verdict on the re-
publican party for permitting such
acts. If this money had been taken

nor contemplates any thing of this
kind he should select a committee re-
CARELESS of machine or anti-machine.
He knows who the men are in each
body who have the reputation of
grating and they should be left off
of any such committee if he wishes to
get at the facts and do something to
redeem the credit of his party, and
the report should be made before the
nominating conventions are held so
that the parties responsible for these
frauds may not be renominated. The
rank and file of the party are honest
and would not send such men to re-
present them if they were sure of the
facts.

the republican party has another
name for 1T.

Colombia has filed protest with
the United States senate against the
action of the administration in recog-
nizing the Independence of Panama.
1t is claimed that the revolution was
brought about by persons in the
United States aud that Panama
should not have been recognized until
after they had had sufficient time to
make terms with her themselves The
question should be carefully looked
into and the rights OF all parties judi
cially determined, for much as the
canal is desired by this country and
in fact by all commercial nations, We
cannot afford the reputation of taking
by force from a weaker people what
is legally theirs without their consent
and just compensation.

The trouble with Conner Davies
seems to be that when the other fell
flows tell him to go and sit down he
won't stay ''sot." He first came ont
of the brush and jumped onto the
machine with both feet one is made
like a broom stick and has spike on
the lower end). That hurt. He then
went off and sat down for awhile and
listened to the 'harmony" talk until
that made him tired again. Now he
is jumping on both the machine and
the anti-machine and tells them that
the people don't want any machine
and that because the leaders of both
factions have fixed up a little COM
bination to take care of the kickers
ON both sides of the fence is no reason
why the plain common people should
get behind and boost them upward to
the pie counter. What he evidently
wants is for the machine and the anti
machine to be smashed that there
may be a new deal. AS a fellow
once said of Conner: There shall
be trouble wherever he goes"

One of the healthy signs of the

accepting money in connection with
post Office appointments. The rascals
