ROOSEVELT NEEDS HANNA.
Will the Ohio Senator Manage
the Presidents Campaign.


Washington, April 16.-People who
say they are in a position to know,
think that il President Roosevelt is
nominated for thepresidency 1904,
as now seems assured, he almost GER
tainly will ask Senator Hanna to
manage his campaign for him. In
fact, the Presidents friends say they
have assurances that the skillful
leader from Ohio has positively de-
termined not to be a candidate for
the presidency himself under any
possible contingency. This has re.
moved all possibility OF friction
between Senator Hanna and the
president, and Mr.. Roosevelt has
come to lean more and more upon
the astute political leader from Pres.
ident McKinley's state.
WILL HANNA ACCEPT!
The result is that a strong effort
will be made to induce Senator Han
ma to undertake again the burden
some duties OF conducting another
campaign. Senator Hanna will be
81 years old when the next presiden'
tial election is held, and it was fear
ed that he might plead that after
having borne the heat and burden Of
two campaigns, his duty to the party
was ended. Nevertheless, the presi
dents friends, alter looking ovel
the ground carefully, have come to
the conclusion, it is said, that Sena
tor Hanna, more than any Other
man, would carry the campaign tt
success in 1904.
The fact is recognized freely here il
Washington that President Roose
welt will not have things all his Owl
way in New York and New Jersey
owing to the resentment felt by tn,
management OF the great trusts
against the presidents attitude, par
ticularly since the merger decision
The position OF Senator Hanna a,
chairman OF the national committe,
would be a guarantee to the corpo
rations that the president will not b.
actuated by any personal ambition
and that, having chosen a conserva
tive man like Senator Hanna for hi
campaign manager, would, if elected
seek for advice during the next ad
ministration from the same quarter
1t 80 happens that Senator Ham,
will be a pretty busy man from nov
on politically, entirely aside from tn
question Of presidential elections
The senator's term OF Office expire
on March 3, 1905. The Ohio legis
lature has only bienniel sessions an,
the next regular session is in Januar.
OF the next year. The state election
this fall, therefore, will not only de
termine the question of who shall b
the next governor but it will ais
settle the senatorial Rght at the sam
time.

NERVOUS PROSTRATION.
The Result Of the Pain and Irritation
from Hemorrhoids. .--...-a.

Nervous Prostitution is often the result
of neglecting a case of hemorrhoids or
piles; the pain and irritation attendant
upon this disagreeable trouble incon-
veniences and annoys one, but it is pos
eible to go to business and to do the
ordinary days work, so the trouble is
neglected until the nerves become ex-
,hausted and the patient is a victim Of
nervous prostratiOn.
Hemorrhoids cause a, sensation of heat
tension and itching in a region where is
located the most sensitive nerves of the
human system and the continued irrita-
ton will eventually cause a collapse of
the nerves. This would easily have been
avoided if the patient had carefully
treated the case Of piles from their first
appearance. mo other trouble can be so
quickly and safely overcome, if treated
in an early stage, and even if the case is
an old one, there is a remedy which will
act with remarkable results if faithfully
applied.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is in suppository
form and can be conveniently applied tt
the afflicted parts. the soothing oils anC
medication reaching and healing the en-
!arged hemorrhoidal veins of the rectum
and acting at once upon the infame(
tissues.
Every sufferer from this trouble should
send at once to the Pyramid Drug Co.
Marshall. Mich. for their book on Piles o.
Hemorrhoids, which will be sent free
The Pyramid Pile Cure is so we'll know
and the hundreds cured by it have Sc
advertised it that the little book is mere
~ sent to give each patient clearer view
of his or her particular case and tn,
proper treatment for it.

BRITISH PUBLIC OPINION


NOtS OF I.
Berlin, Feb. 3.-The German ambassa-
dor at London, Count Wolff Metternich
in a dispatch to his government referring
to British public opinion on the Venezue-
Ian situation and the British cabinets at
titude in consequence thereof, says the
government is conscious of lack Of popu-
lar support in it's association with Ger
many. especially of the disapproval Of the
middle classes. Premier Balfour and
Foreign Minister Lansdowne have the
support Of the other members Of the cab
met in their steadfast determination to
carry the agreement with Germany but
the ambassador ventures the opinion that
Lord LansdoWne's position is weakened
through loss Of public support and that
the cabinet is in mood to accept almost
any way out Of the Venezuelan entangle i.
ment that promises the ultimate payment
of the claims.
Ambassador Wolff Metternich also says
a very genuine dislike exists generally
in Great Britain to the governments part
nership with Germany and in counselling
that the negotiations at Washington be
fastened he intimates that if the situa-
ton becomes more confused it is con-
ceivable that Colonial Secretary Chamber
lain on his return from South Africa may
become the interpreter Of the popular view
in the cabinet and advise the other min
listers accordingly.
