Rev. Edward Hughes, the Mine
Superintendent out at Irona, preach .
ed in the M. f. Church here in the
absence of the pastor, Rev. Howard,
who was down in Jackson county
visiting his old home. The combi-
nation Of Mine SUPP. and Minister
Of the Gospel is rather an unusual
one, and the man who can boss
mules, Huns, Dagoes and such like
coal equipments without swearing
and seriously impairing his religion,
is well grounded in the faith and sure
ly has a brand of religion that will
stand any test. We congratulate
Rev. Hughes on his moral stamina
and stability.

Rev. Macy Magee Waters, a
graduate of the University of West
Virginia, and a minister in the
Congregational church Of Brooklyn,
is charged with plagiarism. This
is the second time this charge
has been brought against him.
The Christian Advocate, in a
recent issue, goes after him very
severely and draws the deadly
parallel on him. He left the Nj
f. Church some time ago for his
new church. The minister in ques-
ton formerly preached in Evanston,
H., and has stood high In his
calling.
Rev. Waters was born and raised
in Preston county and is a son of
William Waters, who lives near
Independence.

The question of how the farmers
OF the western states stand on the
tariff and trust issues has been
strongly indicated through the enter
prise of the EARN and Home, }"
published in Chicago. That news
paper sent out so, 900 postal cards
requesting answers to seven ques-
tons, amongst which was. "Should
tariff be revisedr" The vote on
that proposition was yes, a7,Io3; no,
1878
When it is considered that the ma
jority in most of the states from
which this vote was gathered is
largely republican, it marks the re-
volt in the ranks of that party
against excessive protection. But
another vote was taken on kindred
subject that shows how the extortions
of the trusts are regarded by the
farmers. The question asked was:
"Should trusts be regulated or sup
pressedp" The answer was: Regu-
lated, aa,S54; Suppressed, "a, 44o.
This straw vote shows the drift for
tariff reform and regulation of the
trusts. The standpatters have a job
in front of them next year.

STRONG EVIDENCE OF FAITH.
Leading Druggists Guarantee That
Hyomei Will Cure the Worst Case
of Catarrh in Wichita.

When the most reputable concerns in
Wichita guarantee that medicine will
effect a cure or they will return the
money, it speaks volumes as to the merit
of that remedy 1t is in this way that
leading druggists are selling Hyomei,
the treatment that has made so many
remarkable cures of both acute and
chronic cases of catarrh in Wichita and
vicinity.
Hyomei is not a pill nor is it liquid
that has to be taken with a tablespoon or
wineglass Just breathe il in by the aid
of an inhaler that comes in every OUTFIT
and benefit will be seen from the first
treatment.
1t DESTROYS all germ life in the air pas
sages and lungs and enriches and purifies
the blood with additional ozone. 1t cures
catsrrh of the head and throat, or of the
stomach, liver and kidneys. Wherever
mucous membrane contains catarrhal
germs. there Hyomei will do its work of
healing. When using this treatment the
air YOU breathe will be found like that on
the mountains high above the sea level,
where grow balsamic trees and plants
which make the air pure by giving of
volatile antiseptic fragrance that Is heal

is expected that he will move his drill
outfit from his home in Hennessey, o. T.,
to Wichita and begin operations at an
early date. 1t was at the solicitation OF
G. Gehring that Mr.. Forniraseo came
here. Mr. Gehring is going TO drill for
oil and gas on his farm southeast of the

this work will be made with Mr.. Forni-
raseo.
Ii is said that this gentleman has the
finest and most complete drilling outfit in
the territory. Ii is valued at five thou
sand dollars and every drill commonly
used in deep well drilling in the west is
in his equipment. He has core and chus-
ger drills of the latest pattern and oper-
ates the outfit himself. He is well drillel
of many years experience and has work
ed in a number of localities. He thor

on drilling for gas and oil on his farm
and for some weeks has been correspond
